Could be a defective battery.

New App, or syncing?
sync? facebook? widgets? Ongoing Apps? (ie Messengers)
seems like you have an app thats accessing data in the back
Its a new app. defective
I had a problem today as well. My phone was charged overnight so in the morning it was at 100%, i barely talked on the phone all day and then around 7pm i wanted to use my phone and it was off. I found it strange so I booted my phone and my battery life was at 1%!! I have the G2 since it came out and nothing like this ever happened before. I havent installed a new app in a couple months and my GPS and background data is always disabled to save battery life. There was nothing out of the ordinary.. Anybody else had this problem?

This has been happening to me since the day I bought it. I unplug at 6 AM, by 4:30 PM when I get home the battery is at 15%. Don't know what the issue is
More info for those that have battery drain issues:
- Stock or custom rom?
- Have you reconditioned the battery (reset battery stats)
I'm on CM6 and I got 2.33% drain per hour average, with 1.2% drain per hour while idle (sleeping). That's with OC to 1.5 Ghz (on demand). I've only had the phone since Friday so this should be getting better.
I did the System Panel check like I do with all new devices to see if there are any background apps running that are running the CPU. I haven't found any buggers.
I've pretty much tried everything on: stock rom, CM 6.1.1 and now Virtuous. Maybe the battery itself is just messed. With Virtuous, I unplugged last night around 10, and just now I am at 12%
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!
My Battery drained from 100% (it was fully charged, then I unplugged it and locked it) to 75% overnight.
What are some likely causes of this?
I noticed you have no signal. Constantly searching for a signal will drain the battery...
I've only had my N4 for a few days but the battery life has been good so far. A couple of brief observations...
1) On wifi only overnight (no SIM as I just got it and didn't have a micro yet) for 7+ hours. ZERO % drain...
2) On LTE (2-3 bars) for the past 3 hours. I left the phone and came back later. ZERO % drain...
Gmail is push, no GPS or BT. Only core apps running. I don't normally have anything in the back ground outside of lightflow...
Download GSam battery monitor
I noticed this also. I never had that much drain with my Galaxy Nexus.
I went out to lunch. Sent a few texts with google voice and looked up some random food articles on wiki for a few minutes. I was gone for 1-1.5 hours and now my battery is down to 47% from 75% this morning.
I'm going to download GSam and see what I get from there.
Edit: Installed GSam.
Attaching results from it.

Charge it fully tonight, unplug it in the morning, and then post your GSam results tomorrow night after a day of usage.
Mine has started loosing charge overnight too.
It won't turn of wifi when asleep either. Since I activated Google Now.
Mine lost 5%in 4hours overnight. Nothing running apart from mail and now notifications.

Your android OS usage is terribly high. That's my first suspect.

My android OS usage is very high as well... sometimes higher than the screen. I'm gonna try turning off google now to see if that does anything but other than that I have no idea what would be causing that...
The screenshots show app usage as being 50%+.. It is probably a rogue app you have running in the background.

As I said before, I believe it's some Google apps, I deleted a bunch of Google apps I don't use. My phone sleeps like a baby now. Overnight it only went down 2%.

I had the same issue for a couple of days. I would wake up to my phone only having 65% charge and the device would be rather warm. In my situation, I found that the charger was faulty. I noticed at times it would cause the phone to flicker back and forth from charging to in use. Lucky for me, I don't sleep well at night and I found the issue after my phone had been plugged in for 5 hours in the middle of the night. With that said, I also noticed the charger would make a high pitched hum/hiss. I swapped my charger out for my old Iphone 4 charger and I haven't had an issue.
Nearly a full day's results.
I left my phone charging from night until morning. I unplugged my phone sometime around 10-11am and I stepped out around 12:30.
It's 5:52 pm now.
I was out from around 12:30 to around 5ish. At around 5 my phone had 50-56% battery left. My friend's Iphone 5 had 75% left. Aside from my friend using his iphone as a GPS to navigate in the car (around 20 minutes) - we had roughly the same phone usage (by my estimate of course), we were at same locations and both of us are on the same network.
To be frank, I don't understand why my friend had more battery life than I did considering he was using gps. I do feel like there is something draining my phone battery.
My screen light settings are on automatic.
I've attached GSam and my list of applications.
From about 5 to now (5:52):
After a bit of surfing, installing 1 application to list my apps, emailing that app list to myself screenshotting the relevant data and emailing those screenshots to myself over wifi. I'm now down to 39%

3 hours and 20 mins down the line.
I'm at 10% battery.
I hated the lollipop OS so I went back to KitKat 4.4.4. Now just in the past week it's been nearly impossible to get this tablet to full charge. It takes HOURS just to charge even 20%. Now I've noticed in this past week that google play services is taking up a whopping 36% of my battery. And it has never done this before. Not only that but on the battery graph it shows that my tablet has been awake and has never went to sleep. Even after sitting, doing nothing for an hour and half while I was in my physics class. Even for hours overnight it stayed awake not once did it sleep. So I'm starting to wonder. Does anyone know what's going on here?

Hello, everyone!
I have been trying to follow the pattern of only charging the battery to 80 percent in order to preserve its capacity. So far, Accubattery says I'm doing ok with that. However, I've noticed in the last day or so that my battery is draining ridiculously fast. I went to bed last night after a charge, and I lost 52 percent overnight without using it.
I am out of town, and the cell signal is a little weak, but I can't think of any reason other than the July security update that could be making a difference. We are on the condo's wifi as well. Accubattery doesn't show one app that's eating away.
Anyone else with this issue? Any suggestions?
Thanks!
