After updating to nougut i am getting poor standby time.
I haven't install facebook or something like that. I have no chat or social app installed and my phone signal is always 100%.
I keep all moto features on except moto voice and attentive display.
Some time in standby battery drops slowly but when i turn the screen on even with minimal use it drops very very! fast.

Install GSAM, turn on enhanced reporting, and see what the drain is... Then report back.

Can't do it now. Flashed stock marshmallow.
But as far as i remember in gsam phone radio was high.
And in stock battery stat sandby and idle was high.
And after about 8-9 hours idle time when i use phone the battery percentage drops really fast with normal use.
And one thing after returning to marshmallow latest version i fell like the sound quality in marshmallow with Bluetooth stereo headset is much better than nougut.(can be my illusion.)

If you have good signal strength and modem usage is high, erase modemst1/2 in fastboot and test again.
There seems to be an issue with idle battery draw from the modems when signal is poor in Nougat, but signal is good there hasn't really been any reports of that.

I have a Pure Edition, still on Marshmallow... Wave to Wake has to keep sensors powered on all the time, the amount of power needed shouldn't vary regardless of OS version.
Bluetooth on Marshmallow had known issues, I am not surprised if quality is better.

Eh... Sorry, I misread what you said. But there was definitely issues with BT in Marshmallow, random disconnects, pairing problems, poor quality, etc. and all those were supposedly fixed in Nougat, at least that is what most users are reporting.
Nougat is not available for the Pure Edition yet, the US model is a bit behind the others this time... I will be taking it as soon as it comes out though, and performing a factory reset after 24 hours, then setting up everything from scratch.

Wave to wake keeps sensors powered on all the time as mentioned by @acejavelin. You also have to account for the fact that just being in range of the sensors can turn on the display. With Moto display turned on without wave to wake, you can just bump/move your phone to wake the display, so I find wave to wake is really unnecessary.

The problem is on nougut overnight drain.
And there is so much wakelock.
I tried using greenify free version.
The number of wakelocks reduced but overnight usage is high
And one day i charged it it 100 percent and didn't use it until noon and i only got about 2 hours and 30 minutes usage.
I keep wifi ,mobile data, Bluetooth ,nfc off.
Did you see all screenshots or one.
If one than which one?
I only watch 720p or 460p hardware decoded videos or read mangas or books or read webpages don't do much heavy usage.
I am using this mobile for only 2 or 3 months.

You have about 1.3% per hour drain, correct?

Well i agree that 1.3 isn't much higher considering i keep moto display,moto actions,wave to wake on.
But the problem is when i keep it for 11-13 hours in standby mode it does use about 9-10 percent if i use greenify. But when i use it in noon i only get 2 hours sot.
But if i charge it in morning i can use it for upto 4 hours.
I can't understand why is that.
Does the kernel don't show battery percentage currectly?

Honestly... I don't know, but I think your over thinking it. Your battery usage will vary, but I see no red flags that cause concern.

For me everything is ok, 1.5% drain a hour is really good, also if you have wave to wake on, it is really really good.
Anyway it is very dificult to see the problem if you upload more than a 100 pictures, with no description in the name to wich is what or what do you want us to look. Maybe if you upload only the screen where you see the abnormal drain we can catch something.
Maybe i am overthinking it.
But i swiched between marshmallow an nougut many time and i always get the felling that marshmallow uses less battery.
In marshmallow idle time and cell standby always show low.
And in nougut it shows high.
Well but it can be because of difference in handling battery stats in marshmallow and nougut.
Thanks for trying to help

hello,
i ordered a moto x play two days ago and i will get my device today or tomorrow. Now i am not sure if i should upgrade to marshmallow. Regarding to some posts here the battery life seems to suffer from the update. Is this true? Do you have the same battery life with 6.0 as with 5.1.1 ? For me battery life is kind of crucial. I chose the moto because of the good battery.
I'd love to know your opinion.
Thanx in advance.
Battery life seemed a bit lower on 6.0 than on Lollipop for a few days. Now, it's stabilized, and I'd say it's almost as good

It's been great for me. 7-8 hrs sot with stock kernel and now on track to get 10 with Squid kernel.
I get 10+ hours SOT . With stock mm.. dual sim and mobile data.
I usually play around with the autostarts app and titanium backup. I guess, i can root my device and i will then be able to optimize the phone i like with these tools.
Thanx for your answers. I still would like to get some more votes.
regards.
I think the only difference MM can make will be due to optimizing certain apps. Its sucha shame that google play services cant be optimized. I am finding its better than LP.
Offtopic - I had a S5 (g900h) with LP 5.0.1 stock and samsung had this optimization option which lead to an awesome battery life. This is why I believe that can be the only thing which can make it better
It depends on your usecase. If you are constantly on the phone, they won't differ much. If your phone is screen-off most of the time, Marshmallows Doze mechanism can save you a ton of battery life (assumping you jumpstart it with Naptime or similar). It could possibly be matched or even overcome if you REALLY fine tune a lollipop setup with Amplify, but from a technical standpoint doze is far better, because the OS controls when the device wakes up, not the apps themselves. Also, the most recent (best?) kernels will only be for MM.

That's absolutely great.
It means if 4 percent decreases in 8 hours it's about 1 percent in 2 hours. Me too has same result although in between 8 hours I took a 3 minute call and my alarm rung.

I don't personally have the Z Play but I just got it for my sister on my plan and its getting some really great battery life. it had 15% left but already had over 9 hours of SOT! granted she mostly watch's Youtube videos with checking Facebook every so often. what is everyone else getting?
First day of "normal" use, 3.5hrs of strava, zenwatch always connected
The battery life is absolutely insane. I'm so glad I got this little beast.
Yep, battery is great. Might even be better than the Moto X Play battery life.
13% CAN (depends on your settings, brightness etc) yield 2 hours SoT. Does with me

Got the phone a few days ago with Verzion, forgot to get the details of the power usage, all I got is the graph.
I use this phone a lot while working to take calls, playing music on my radio with Pandora while driving, and GPS. Wifi enabled, auto brightness, and GPS high accuracy.
Any idea why anyone would need to buy the battery pack Moto Mod when the stock battery lasts this long?

Hello,
I am an LG fan (mainly due to the always-on display and the reliable tap to wake/sleep functions which I find tremendously useful) and since the G7 was launched (too big of a phone and too small battery for my needs) I decided that the G6 may actually fit my needs better due to being smaller and having a bigger battery (and the perfectly flat screen of the G6 which allows me to use an invisible tempered glass protector).
But I'm worried about battery life, especially stand-by. I need a phone that lasts 2 days with like 2-3h of SOT (I don't use the phone much but I really need it to have low standby drain). From what I read until now, the standby drain is a bit of a hit and miss with the G6...
I was wondering if the new Oreo release brings any improvements in standby drain ? Does anyone have experience with it ?
Thanks !
Idle battery drain mainly depends on the apps you use and whether they sleep ok or misbehave. I can use my G6 for 2 days...
call me pessimistic, but i never had better battery life after my phone was updated to the next release of software. It could be partially because battery life was depleted after long period of waiting for updates. I can say that with Samsung S8 and Sony and HTC10, it was definitely a case. I do not expect miracle with G6 either.
will be happy if someone can show me otherwise
Has anyone with a Korean G6 that has actually been updated to Oreo noticed any changes in either battery life or standby battery drain. Quite a few people are hoping for improvements in standby battery drain as this was a known problem with Nougat 7.0. If you could also state how old your G6 is, as some peoples phones may be over a year old and be suffering from battery degradation. My 9 month old H870DS, set up how i want it, loses 20-25 percent of battery in 8 hours overnight. This phone must be charged daily overnight or topped up regularly.

You may have some bad apps. I never loose more than 3-5% over night with wifi on.
i have G600L from Korea, and i can assure that Oreo has not had any improvements on standby drain. Well the good thing is that it doesn't get any worse.
That has been my experience with other phones as well. Even if some new battery saving technique is built into the new OS, it is more than compensated for by the bloat of the new OS and updated apps, which have more services running in the background.

On average, people in this forum have been reporting idle battery drain of 2-3% per hour. However there is quite a bit of variation both day to day in the same device and between devices. You have been one of the lucky ones, most likely having nothing to do with what apps or settings you do or don't use. 2 seperate threads have been devoted to dealing with the problem, but nothing consistently helps. Most likely either a hardware issue, like the radio cycling hi or low power, or something in Nougat that LG might or might not fix (according to the post above they did not...)
Regarding "misbehaving" apps-- basically almost every useful app has that potential, since so much functionality of the smartphone revolves around the ability to multitask or run in the background. So if you want to leave the phone with only stock apps, install nothing, and block all syncing, reminders or notifications, I'm sure you can modestly reduce the idle drain, but so what? It negates the whole point of the smartphone... I remember I could get a whole week out of my Nokia 3150 candybar phone
I'd be interested to learn which apps you have and what settings you changed.
I loose about 3% over night with WiFi, BT and location = high precision. I have and use many apps (>120) but most of them are productivity tools, VPN, etc. I use only ad free and many paid apps e.g. Maildroid pro for email. Maybe ad free is one of the reasons as I'll have less background activity. On the other hand my Voip client (Grandstream Wave) is always on and I still have no idle issue...

I debloated pretty much every uneccessary app (i'd say 60-70 apps) when i was in nougat and so as in oreo. I've never experienced drastic battery drain on either version. I never leave wifi on when i go to bed, so I'd say I loose around 1% overnight (in nougat as well as oreo). So there u have it, don't expect to much from Oreo, you're not going to have an immense boost in terms of battery, nor in the overall perfomance of the phone. Still, I'm very with this phone

When I leave mine at 100% charge before going to bed at night, it's still at 100% the morning after. So, a 1% change the whole night is not bad (nor extra-ordinary).
I have my wifi and bluetooth always on. But I don't have the screen at "always on" setting. My email sync settings are on "smart" mode. Other installed apps which may run in the background are News app, GroupMe, My Data Manager, and NetGuard.

10 months old H870DS, HKG firmware, no battery degradation because with nougat I charged it at 1.5 to 2 days. 2 SIM cards standby, 4G networks, active use of the phone and I was getting around 3h SOT with a 20-24h standby. Now after Oreo I'm getting max 2.5, under 3h SOT with the same 24h standby. I did a factory reset after upgrading via LG Bridge, and did a upgrade with LG UP and kdz V20a - no change at all. I suppose that the system is draining more battery than it should under use.View attachment 4526726

When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the Xiaomi Poco F1's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

I've never owned a phone running MIUI but I understand it has pretty aggressive power management (shutting down services and relaunching them when they're needed, rather than just letting Android's power management do its thing in letting them sleep). Wondering if battery drain might be a MIUI-thang?
Does anyone have any first hand experience to improve on my rumour-based speculation?
Had a really bad stand by drain from about 85 to 63 percent because of Wifi
Turning WiFi off solves the problem

That's because your phone was awake all the time because of wifi on all the time. Phone didn't go to deep sleep.

That's a weird battery graph you have there. Even though screen was off, somehow you phone was awake non stop without a break.
Below is my battery graph. When screen is off, 99% time phone won't be awake. But I don't know much about that stuff.

i don't think its due to the wifi. check your apps usage/battery page. some app is draining the battery. just close all apps and reboot your phone.

The battery usage of all the apps seems to be normal but Android system has pretty high usage of about 20percent
In the image below it can be seen that that the battery drain is present only when I keep the WiFi on.

besides android system, what other apps is listed there? can you show the apps usage screenshot?
I'm also getting quite high battery drain at night (around 13%), I have really few apps installed and I tried closing all the apps in memory before going to bed. I haven't tried turning wifi off but that shouldn't be the issue in a modern phone. I hope it gets fixed in an OTA. Otherwise battery life is great.
I tried factory resetting the phone but the problem persists.Ill post the usage when I have used it for some time.
I noticed another thing that this problem is only present for specific WiFis. It works just fine for other networks and also in the networks where the problem is present there is a constant network traffic of about 20-30kbps

Don't think there's going to be any OTA for that. Only few people facing the issue. I get like 4% drain over 12 hours and I'm sure that's due to random notifications waking my phone during sleep. Thats normal.
Nobody tried BetterBatteryStats? It should show what is draining the battery.

I too have this issue, my battery drained 20% with the screen off + WiFi ON for 7 hours. My graph was almost the same as yours, even though the screen was OFF my system was awake.
Today I checked the same by turning OFF WiFi, there was only 2% drain.

0.5 percent/hour in case WIFI is off
1-2 percent/ hour if wifi is on
In case of poor network reception 2.5-3 percent/ hour with wifi turned on
2% to 5% drainage at night.
The battery drains 2% to 5% at night. Well yeah , it doesn't makes sense while the battery is 4000 mAh , I tried removing background app but still something sucks the battery. I'm new to MIUI , might be the case with this operating system or is it due to always on fingerprint sensor?? I would like to disable that feature because I am I'm love with face unlock. It's just awesomeness!

..
In last few days i am observing, my battery drained max 2-3% in any given night.
I kill all apps from recent menu before goin to sleep. I never turn off WiFi.
I feel its quite impressive for my usage. Lasts me whole day with 20-30% remaining. I get SOT of min 7hrs before battery hitting 10%.
If anyone of you facing major battery drain, try using battery saver. It turns off sync, turns off gps/location. You can even schedule it if you want.
In my case with battery saver on, my general usage is unaffected. Bettery lasts 15-20% more. I even play PUBG at full settings with bettery saver on and it doesn't drop a single frame.
Guys how is the update treating you? I really am enjoying this update and i can see about 30-45 mins improvement in battery life. Would love to know your thoughts!
hi.
my pixel updated yesterday.
i will check it today.
can you post your sot ?

Hi sorry i didn't take it but i am getting around 6h 45mins+ and i only used to get 5h 45mins before on the same usage pattern.
Also before i was using dark mode all the time and now i am using scheduled dark mode. So i believe i can squeeze in 15-20 mins more if i use dark mode only. This is great. I think they updated the pixel 4 first as users reported improvement in battery life in Jan or Feb.
My battery is at 90% health, so that is really gre8 seeing it boosted by an hour.

Yeah i got the battery health from accubattery. I think you should definitely see an increase with this update. let me know once you test the battery

yeah, of course.
Indeed man. I am losing 1 percent overnight (7 hours deep sleep).
nothing change for me.
losing 3-4 % night (8 hour)
I think battery has worsened, but the animations are much much smoother. Especially the home gesture animation
When I say worsened, it went from 6h to 5.5h. Still a beast.
I always lose 7% over 7-9 hours, the wifi draining problems persist
Im getting anywhere between 6 to 8 hours sot. Depending what usage I've put the device through. But I do think dark mode really helps a lot on this device.
I agree. Look at that straight line last night overnight! That's beautiful!

That must be because of WiFi scanning options being turned on or something. If you investigate properly you will get better stand by time

Can you post screenshots of the drain? It could be any app you've misbehaving or some services updating itself at night when your phone is ideal and connected to WiFi

These are the screenshots, the only thing that seems weird is the photos app, but in the past i have disabled it, and the wifi drain still happened.

The photos app does look suspicious, maybe you can check the settings for uploading or backing up your photos.

Also if you've always on display, you should turn it off
