My moto G4 has had some issues with battery lately on custom rom with and without root aswell as on marshmallow and nougat with and without root. is this the battery itself?
My friend bought the same phone on the exact same day as me and his battery lasts way longer.
Also my phone says in the battery settings i only have used 20% while i have used 60%
Any one knows what i can do to fix this?
Sorry for not providing much info i dont know wich files i should show you guys.
It wouldn't hurt to replace your battery. You should be able to get a battery replacement if you send it to a Motorola service center, or buy a new battery online (only $20 I think).
Even though you've rooted Motorola should take your phone.
Finally, would you mind postings screenies of battery graphs?
Edit: $13.99 for replacement battery, iFixit has a good battery guide: http://www.witrigs.com/oem-battery-for-motorola-moto-g4-plus

Sorry lost all screenshots because i just factory wiped my phone i have noticed in safe mode my phone's battery lasts as long as it should.
But after just factory wiping it it still drains (not one single app installed) could this be due to poor signal?

Hmm... do you have location/bluetooth/wifi on all the time? How bad is your signal (poor signal will quickly drain your battery)?
Is your bootloader unlocked? If so, please root and install "Wakelock Detector", and see which apps are holding your phone awake.

I really don't know how to go with this- I don't understand how safe mode fixed the issue. How bad is the drain? (how much % p/hour standby, with screen off?)
You said you've used custom ROMs and root. Please root and install Wakelock Detector.
Also, yes, poor signal will result in drain, but for me it may drain 1% every 20-30 minutes. I don't know how bad it is with you.

That sounds pretty normal with WiFi and bad signal. On average I get 6 hours SoT, but I always enable Airplane mode in school (I'm on T-mo, lol), and when I get out signal is always pretty solid.
Also, WiFi, location, and Bluetooth are all disabled unless at home.
With really poor/no signal I might crack 4.5 hours of SoT, but then again I've disabled 4 cores of my CPU and WiFi so there's that.

Hungry Man ~
Lately I've been running the latest update of the same ROM (Nonsensikal Froyo - now 15.2) without any CPU apps (no o/c'ing through script either), no autokiller, no battery tweaks (just Juice Plotter) only 1 widget (Fancy Widget Pro), JIT enabled, VM heap @32, compcache @18 (default) and depending on which app I look at, TiB or RE, I have +/-110mb of free RAM, very minimal apps. Also, I upgraded to CFSv9. I even bought a Seidio Innocell 1750mh extended life battery. I recalibrate my battery after flashes ....
Oh yeah, a little more info, I am not a power user, just an average user with poor to ok reception, I tend to use wireless at my house b/c reception out here in the woods ain't good, but turn it off when not needed. I use airplane mode during sleeping hours as well. The max of my battery usage is Display, then And OS.
Ok, now the question ..... If I don't use airplane mode, I get maaaaaay-be 6-8 hours of average phone usage, usually less !!
What finally broke me to PM you now is that (i recently put numbers on my battery icon) while typing a text message earlier (a few minutes tops, not on wireless) I watched my battery click down from 50 to 48 !!!
When I charge my phone full & I easily lose 10% in half an hour (I've tried this with SetCPU, JD, CBT, Super Power, CPUBoost Lite - I think you get the gist) ... and not including airplane mode, I NEVER get more than 6-8 hours of battery life !!!
Is there any knowledge that you can give me on this issue or have I pretty much exhausted my options ? I am this PM short of resigning to crappy battery life
Many Thanks for your time ~
Matt

What does the phone/Spare Parts say is using all the battery? Have you tried flashing and then using the phone without installing apps (other than the essentials?) Are you leaving the phone idle, screen off, and noticing the same big drop?
You could try going to stock for a bit to see if it improves...or trying a different ROM. Maybe you have a dud battery?
Edit: Sorry, you may have meant this to be directed at someone specifically.
Just an observation. If you're not using anything to overclock the phone maybe the battery life would be better if you at least underclock it. I suggest Conap's CPUBoost Lite, free on the market and here. Just set the minimum frequency to 245760 (my suggestion), and I currently have the screen off Minimum to 19200 and the screen off Maximum to 480000.
Also, I used to use Juice Plotter. I theorized that maybe Juice Plotter wasn't great for my battery itself.

I noticed the same thing when I used Juice Plotter. I got significantly less battery life when i had it. Try deleting Juice Plotter and see if you get more life out of your battery.
well you've noted your in a poor coverage area, and that is your problem, nothing can completely fix other than moving, but you may want to research flashing a new radio, becareful and check your md5 hash sums

Actually, the Verizon Network Extender can definitely help without moving. http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/store/accessory?action=gotoFemtocell
It's $250, but probably a lot cheaper than moving, and it should help with battery life. It does with me - I get 24-32 hours on a 1750 battery, with WiFi on all of the time (I have the old, non-3G extender.)
I'm running Tazz Froyo and get a minimum of 24 hrs on stock battery. I would try changing roms.
Battery life on my eris was never good, that's why you buy a extended battery. I have the biggest one that they have on amazon and my battery can last for five days with average use

Yes, it works if you do it propely. Charge phone to 100%, boot into recovery, wipe battery stats, reboot phone. Use your phone as normal until the battery is fully discharged and it shuts the phone off. I sometimes try to turn it back on also just to make sure it is all the way dead. Plug your phone in to charge it, walk away, don't touch it until it is 100% charged. Turn your phone on and use it as normal. It sometimes will take a few times charging it to see a difference. If I missed anything or mistyped anything some one correct me please lol
With light use im now at 28 percent going on 38 hours since last plugged in. anyone else noticing way better battery performance?

The only way you could have that on a stock battery is have the phone off and battery pulled out for 34 hours.

keep an eye on your TWS. This has been a huge issue for me, and keeps draining the life out of the battery. Only solution so far seems to be the ariplane mode toggle work around.
I was able to make 30+ hours on a single full charge with dk28.
I still haven't put eb13 through its paces but from what I'm seeing, its great with battery.

if you all want better battery life then disable your data network ...the way to do this is hold down the power button ...just like you are turning your phone off, you will see the data network. hit that button..it will disable your internet constantly running in the back ground and also will disable notifications...you can turn it on at your discression when you want to check your email, internet, or anything pertaining to data network...but trust me this will give you alot more battery life..also you can install setcpu and clock it to run lower when your phone is charging, not in use , or even when you are using your phone...this also helps substantually...good luck guys

Very nice suggestions I'd also like to add that using Wifi will use a LOT less battery then 3G probably 80% of the time. At work I have poor reception so leaving 3G on will kill my battery, however WiFi it's not uncommon I leave work after 10 hours unplugged with only 20-25% of the battery used! Make sure to set the wifi sleep policy to never if you go this route, that way it never goes back to 3G even when sleeping.
Turning data off completely and using the phone only lightly all day at work (a few text messages) (10 hours unplugged) i've left work with 88% percent battery remaining
Battery life has improved greatly. I turn off background data, stop the Omadrmblablabla service, no live backgrounds, but it is full color. With moderate use I can see 10 hours and still have 40% before I go to bed.
My battery life has been greatly increased too. The battery indicator seems much more accurate too. I did the factory reset several times, then wiped and used the samsung installer.

I wish I could be as lucky as you. This is by far my biggest complaint with eb13. I have tried flashing multiple times to no avail. How did you update? odin, samsung exe, update zip, or ota?
I did an odin flash, and my battery is much better as well. On 2.1 stock I would usually get about 16 hrs with my usage. Now, with the same usage on EB13, I can get about 36hrs (charging every other night).
I did the zip update first, and my battery was awful and only lasted for 4 hours. But since the odin flash, everything is great!

But as for myself, I'm getting way better battery on eb13. I think some people have bad experiences sure to installing done apps rgat may run in the back ground. Do this test, reflash stock. Don't install any apps but what thee phone comes with. And use the phone for 2 days. Then you will notice rgat index outer does last longer.

I have tried that as well, no dice. Only the airplane toggle seems to fix it. I have to airplane toggle every time I boot up. Once I do that the TWS is around 2-5% which is normal for me.

TWS = time without signal. Airplane mode resets the radio on the device and somehow fixes it (albeit, temporarily). I read somewhere on here people believe it has something to do with the fact that, for some reason, the phone is looking for a gsm signal as well as cdma, and since this is not a gsm phone, it obviously can't find a gsm signal. The constant searching for gsm is causing a drain on the battery. This happens in areas with full sprint coverage, like my house. For whatever reason re-setting the radio forces it to stay on cdma mode only. I think i read someone saying something along the lines of it being a problem because this is was an update created for devices across the board, ie, for both cdma and gsm handsets. Its just a bug that needs addressed. Some people have it, some don't -- which is even more frustrating!
If you are not experiencing this problem, please tell me what method you used to update. I have only tried Odin (and update zip once), so I will try the samsung exe to see if it does anything.
Do you think the radio part in last OTA 2.3.3 consumes more battery?
I see the battery information consumption much higher in "Phone".
Confirms it for me?
PS. this morning, after 5 hours and 35 minutes battery down to 90%

Well, I'm using ARHD 5.1.3 (based on the official HTC's GB ROM) with radio 12.54.60.25_26.09.04.11_M2 and can say that battery consumtion is siginificantly better than with the Froyo. It's normal when you have less consumption from the phone as a whole to have a higher percentage on the parts that require the same amount of energy. In fact you can optimize the radio software only to a certain amount - it still has to emmit energy as specified by the standards (GSM, UMTS, WiFi) and it still has the same losses in the receivers' amplifiers.
Ok, you are right, but if i compare the battery drain in this rom, i can say that is faster then stock froyo 2.2.1 imho...
I'm so happy someone else noticed it too! I'm having bad battery issues with this update. Took it from charger this morning and currently having 42%. I've done nothing fancy, installed few programs and browsed web. The percentage is going down like crazy
Not a lot of good to you, but I recently switched to LeeDroid's custom Kernel, the difference is night and day. Worth a look.
i see a problem too with my battery after update. i dont know what is the cause. if u find it pls tell here.thk
my radio part also consume much battery, i am ready to flash other radio and see the results.

completely agree with this. just amazing!
I noticed something strange with the signal levels when using GSM/WCDMA Auto-mode. While on 3G it only had like 1 bar and went straight to GPRS, then suddenly lost GPRS-signal to 0 bars and phone changed it to full 3G mode. It bounced like crazy. I forced it to GSM-mode and surprise, my battery life tripled.
I made a hard reset last night and let my battery die two times, lets see how it goes.

Yes you will get much better battery life as the constant trying to locate best signal in WCDMA preferred mode is a big battery drain. Downside is you reduce data speeds.
I wasn't sure if your surprise was genuine or in mock obviousness so have tried to word this carefully.

the reason while in gsm mode you had a longer lasting battery is because 2G (GSM/GPRS/EDGE) Takes a lot less power than umts/hspa/hspa+ to function; this is regardless of what device from whichever vendor/manufacturer you're using.
if you're still having issues, use the fast wipe rom to completely wipe your phone, then run the RUU (root it with gingerbreak)

It was genuine cos I didn't have same amount of battery drain with Froyo. I always use it in Auto-mode, and with Gingerbread it's awful. I should have mention this in my post, sorry. But the point is, the signal levels went crazy and battery went down. Froyo was almost perfect what comes to this. My battery last 9 hours yesterday, where Froyo 1½ days.
Maybe I should navigate myself to the dev-section and see other solutions.
For some alien reason after upgrading to 2.3.3 , my battery is doubled, if not tripled. Maybe im just lucky that the new radio comes with the update is more suitable with my carrier in my country. I'm now on 3G, autosync , 23 hours after charge and still at 53% , medium use with calling, sms , taking photos and capturing some videos. Before the update my battery dies after like 5-6 hours with 3G and auto sync on. I'm a happy man right now
Ehi guys do you made a factory reset after ota?

Update to my issue. Seems that hard reset did the magic. I now have 81% of battery, took this off the charger 9 oclock this morning. It's still on Auto-mode like it should be. Maybe it was a cell tower fault or a battery calibration problem.

also having problems after the update: the situation is this - if I keep wifi on and do not touch the phone, after ~8 hours (during night) I have only 66% battery left and battery use stats says that "Dialer" ate most of the battery. Did not notice this before in batt stats
I did a factory reset on my dhd after ota and also format the sd card, because i had always "Telephone" (dialer) voice on battery stats with high % of usage.
Btw, when my dhd was inactive on desk for 5 6 hours, with froyo 2.2.1 (1.72) the voices in battery stats were phone inactive, standy by ecc ecc, now before the format, the first voice was always "Telephone".
Now i wait for next recharge.

Hi everyone,
I am new in the android world and i am not sure yet how to manage my phone properly. I have a nexus 4 for 30 days now running adroid 4.2.2 stock non rooted and i experience bad battery behaviour. Although i know my phone has medium battery life, the problem i encounter is when i have the n4 sitting idle it uses way too much battery( always with data,wifi,location services and most syncs turned off) and im not sure if its normal and can be fixed with root,some other way etc or i need to go and replace it.I charged my phone last night and after almost 17h with phone just standing by and doing nothing i was down to almost 65%Shouldn't it waste less energy in deep sleep and also be in that state longer?I have made a log using better battery stats just in case someone more experienced could check it out and advice me.Thanks in advance for your help.
It seems like it's fine. You lost 2.1 % per hour according to the log. It might be the facebook app and the facebook messenger that is eating up your battery. Also I think the major culprit for the loss of battery life is your "msm_hsic_host" wakelock. It's been on for 7 hours +. You also didn't have any service for more than 15 hours. Your phone will constantly search for a signal thus it will drain a lot of power.
I would just say root your phone and install a custom kernel that has fixes that will benefit your battery.
You haven't had a minute's good signal reception in those 17 hrs; no wonder you're battery is being depleted..

A good thing you could do is to install BetterBatteryStats. I think it might be a wake-lock (msm_hsic_host) that might be the cause (because of a poor/inexistant signal). I think you better switch your network off when you have this kind of signal or simply deal with it... You could also try Franco.Kernel, it could help a lot your device to deal with this situation.
Link for what I suggested you:

Franco.Kernel
(You might want to get the stable one, M1. But I would suggest you the nightly one, r121.)

No matter what I do I seem to be getting around 3%/hour battery drain when the phone is idle/sleeping.
I've been analysing with betterbatterystats and wakelockdetector and my phone seems to be deep sleeping 99% of the time yet the battery still drains.
It the past couple of weeks I have experimented with Stock LG, Cleanrom, Cyanogenmod and Omni as well as a custom kernel and the drain happens on all of them.
The test I performed last night involved
*Completely wiping my phone restoring the factory image
*Running setup and only installing betterbatterystats (wakelockdetector was installed this morning after the test)
*Disabled WIFI, BT, GPS, Location Services, NFC and Sync.
*Leaving the phone on my table unplugged but not in use.
*I woke up half way through the night the check the result and when I noticed it was still draining I disable data for the 2nd half of the night.
I've attached some screenshots of what betterbatterystats and wakelockdetector had to say ignore the flight mode I only put it in this mode for the last couple of minutes.

Any and all advice would be appreciated.
More screenshots. I only installed wakelockdetector this morning after the test to check what it had to say AFAIK it should still have accurate results despite this.
What apps do you have that sync?
Ur crazy and without signal.

For this test it should have been nothing as it was a complete fresh install with no user apps other than BBS. I manually disable all of google syncing in the settings menu. I've performed similar tests in the past couple of weeks with my normal daily driver setup i.e CM with a few apps running and sync/bt/nfc/wifi/data enabled and it produces very similar results.
This test was just an absolute barebones "control" test to rule out anything I could have installed so I was shocked to still see the drain.

I'm not quite sure what you are trying to say? If you are referring to the 3hrs of no signal in BBS that would be when I disable data for the 2nd half of the test.
Ok after another night of testing I'm at a loss.
This time I tested in flight mode the whole time which should rule out any sort of radio issues.
To my shock I lost 25% overnight at 3.2%/h screenshots attached.

yeah with data provided it can only be bad battery.
reboot and check for weird percentage jumps, just for fun. They might not occur, I would return the phone for service if I were you.

No its not. I usually drop about 2% in 8hrs with LTE on, being when I am sleeping and not touching the phone of course.
Oh dear this isn't great news though on one hand I'm almost strangely relieved as I've been going crazy testing every possible solution for the past couple of weeks.
Now the bad news. My phone is a grey import (so I could get the international model before the local model was released) so warranty/service could be a massive pain if at all possible.
I'm now looking into purchasing a replacement battery. The only one's I can find are on ebay for around $60 delivered and then I'd need to pry the phone open to replace it.
Is there any way I can 100% confirm it is a faulty battery before spending more money? I do recall certain tools during my testing describing the battery health as good but I don't know how reliable they are.
Voltage leak indeed. Could well be a bad phone and boot just battery.I may lose .1-.2% overnight airplane mode. Sry bud.

Riiight. So your phone without touching it, on LTE, will last you 16 days?
Just an idea

I'd have to agree with the majority here and blame it on a bad battery.
See if your location options are on, if they are, turn them off and try again.

Sorry, what's this got to do with battery?

You way read the whole topic with feedbacks, and you will maybe understand.
some people reported a good behaviour of battery. So maybe it could help.
Thanks for all the extra advice guys

Went to try that a a couple of days ago but unfortunately the dialer code doesn't work from cyanogenmod and haven't bothered to flash back to stock to test it out again.

Yes someone actually advised that to me on the whirlpool forums earlier so I did that very thing last night.
Just turned it on and it was on 98%. Not sure what to make of the result??
Bad phone or battery is the result.
