Hey guys.
I have had a Nexus 7 since the end of July and I love it! However, recently I have been experiencing a weird problem with my battery. Normally, after a full charge I can get about 6 full days in just standby or about 5 if I use it for a considerable amount of time. What has happened recently is that my Nexus has dropped the battery percentage by a lot at completely random times. Like for instance, Friday night it was at about 15% when I left it. Now normally it'll only drain a few percentage points while in standby. I came home about 4 hours later to find it completely dead. That has never happened before. It gets weirder. Last night I went to bed with it at about 85% remaining. I woke up about 6 hours later and was surprised to see that it drained to 55% in just standby! Then after it drains a large amount, it goes back to normal standby behavior. (It is at 53% as I write this)
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Have you checked which apps are running in the background? Did you install any new apps around the time your issues began?

Sorry for the late reply. I have not installed anything new. I will see if it happens again. So far, it has not.
Thanks!
Hi guys
Just wondering if anyone else has noticed high battery drain on LMY48M?
Since the update my battery doesn't seem to be lasting the day if I have mobile data on and I use it occasionally. Basically unplug at 7:30am and by 3pm I need to start charging it. There's no obvious process draining it.
I did replace the battery 5 weeks ago and was working fine. Well into 20+ hours with use. Then not long after the update I noticed this issue.
Any thoughts on what could do?
Edit: Should have used the search (noob mistake I know) it's obviously an issue most are seeing on this build.
Are there any recommendations on Kernels to switch to, seraphore (sic) I've seen mentioned.
I'm always wary of updates in case something detrimental happens, but I recently updated to 48M and have seen no adverse effects. Phone on since 6:30 and still at 60%. Definitely no battery drain here.

Strangely enough it's behaving today. Had a SOD last night, cleared my cache and so far 12hrs since 100% and I've got 43% to go, reckons another 8 hours. This is with my usual usage.

Fingers crossed you've sorted it. 14 hours since 100% here and still have 45%. 12 hours to go. And to think I was considering replacing it with a 5X! [emoji50]

I have had my Galaxy S7 since about four days before it was officially released thanks to T-Mobile shipping it early. (I say this because I assume this is enough time for the battery to cycle)
I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced some crazy system battery drain? I have hardly used my phone today other than two phone calls that lasted about 2 minutes each. My Android System has used 42% battery and it's draining at about 5% an hour. I don't even have two hours of screen on time. I close my apps out when I am finished with them so I don't think that is the problem. I also have location turned off. Any ideas? :crying:
My doing the same. Not sure what's the big gap is about.

Mine was getting 7 hours sot for around 20 hrs of usage then all of a sudden the other day it started this crazy battery drain where it went from 100% to 80% in 2 hours with no use age. I didn't install anything new at all. So I did a factory reset and now it's back to the way it was.
I had to have had an app that went rogue as my device also was heating up. The reset was just the quickest and easier way to correct. Besides with no root it's almost impossible to find the culprit

I had a battery drain issue and I traced it to the "My Places" app that the contexual location edge bar uses to determine your location. It was keeping my GPS on and keeping my phone awake. Turned it off and back to 5+ hours screen on time.
Hi Everyone, hope you can give me some insights on this:

Look at those little "stairs" in battery drain graph and those LG steps counted between 4 and 6 AM. Obviously I was sleeping at that time (and no I was not sleep walking) and the phone wasn't in use or being moved at all (to activate the step counter).
The overall battery drain over night is usually at 1%/hour or less. Last night it was 1.5% because of those draining "stairs" (and maybe the step counter?) above.
Any idea what this could be? Or how I can monitor this more closely? Or does anyone else have similar experiences?

My dad and I both regularly have the devices start heating up while doing nothing and then see massive battery drain, usually well over 20% in the span of about 5 minutes. Both of us are fed up.

I did the remove battery, reinstalled, charged w/o turning it on. went to 100%. Turned on phone.
All day use and get home at 75%...
I adjusted sync times...
Now to see what it does
Ehy everyone, for some reason it feels to me that my battery life on my s10 plus sucks.
I got it 2 weeks ago.
I did a test and charged up to 100%, went to sleep with 100% and woke up with 93% battery..
In addition to that, my previous phone Galaxy a7 2017, could hold on 100% like 5 minutes even when using the phone, my s10 plus goes from 100 to 96 in like few mintues..
I added a screenshot from my battery usage
And cpu usage
Oh and btw, ive read about the Voip battery drain but i dont do any whatsapp calls or such..
Any help?
I put mine on airplane mode at 50% before bed wake up its 49% , I've found I get better battery life from quick hrs or so charge rather than charging through the night , also it learns your charging habits apparently , but that's a big drain poss a app is root cause do you put on airplane mode at night ?

Did you do a restore your data from a backup?
There are users reporting that restoring from SmartSwitch or Google backup can affect battery life, there is a really nice thread called battery optimisation guide you should give it a look

My phone used to be the same way, I disabled the auto optimization, that seemed to do the trick. Go to device care and hit the three settings buttons and turn it off. Huge difference.

Guys please follow this guide

Your phone should work like a charm, those devices should behave a certain way, either it is a bug or something you might be doing wrong or an app setting coming from a backup restoration.
It is a voip call, google a little. I had deep sleep for 7 days, yesterday i made a call, and since then phone didnt go to deep sleepz so i restarted it and now it is as before... It is fixed in march update. Buying a phone that costs 1000+ $ and turning 50% of options off is ridiculous.

Thats what i thought, how can i pay so much money for a phone ans turn everything off because it consumes the battery..
Hope it will get fixed
I did return my unit because of idle battery drain, for 1k price, no thanks...

Mine was poor but after 5 days did pick up. Had to change some settings. However, I can't put a picture on as says this feature has been disabled by your administrator. Xda app

The latest firmware update solve the VoIP CPU-lock issue. But i am still experiencing mild battery drain, when i sleep with 100% batt, i closed all apps and cleared them from the ram and still get 93% when i wake up after 8hours of idle time. No idea how to solve this, checked the CPU its on "sleep/idle" mode the entire 8hours but somehow -7% battery.
I turned off VoIP, location and put the phone to medium power saving mode. It got better.
Edit: I am not having any performance issues with medium battery saving. %70 brightness, limited CPU, FHD screen resolution.
