well its the proximity sensor, if you disable it your phone if you have Always On Display active, and when you are in phone calls and things like that the phone screen wont be turned off, i mean, AOD in the pocket with that sensor disabled will keep the screen on everytime and the battery will drain even faster.
its possible, if you are rooted and can install xposed and have some tweaks you can do it, already have some mods for xposed with that trick.
Have you checked your wakelocks? There could be a rogue app disabling deep sleep in the background... I used BBS and found out for me it was onefootball
i have checked every single settings not sure about wakelock... proximity sensor should not light up when screen is off. so there is something...even with screen off no always on display its still on
Any solution mates,
buddies...!!!!! just checked it on lg astro 2 and two more devices it is always lighting ..so no problm i think...

Hadn't really noticed a huge drain though.
Edit: I'm running DCv1.
Just checked mine. I'm at 88% display and 12% cell standby. Running Darchtrev v2.
Using DC v1
Cell Standby 70%
Phone Idle 20%
Display 8%
Android System 2%
im right there with you ajones. anybody have ideas as to why this is? i havent really seen a difference in battery life though. could just be a glitch.
Did you guys open the camera before you checked?
no. its been like that for a while. last time i used the camera was last night.
Not right before... I did use my camera today though.
I don't like telling people this because you can get in trouble by closing the wrong thing but... try a task killer and make sure the camera is completely closed.
Many Roms come with Astro of ES File Manager and those have a task viewer/killer built in.
i tried that. didnt see the camera as one of the running processes.
Maybe its an app running like goggles or barcode.
just checked. only thing that i could think of to have a hold on the camera is handcent and the messaging app. closed those. ill see what happens
*update*
so that didnt do anything. still reading at 93%. anybody have any ideas or are we just out of luck?
this is so annoying.. i've been spending my times with these wakelocks but still no luck
i've restored my phone to stock and also used any custom roms available for G3.. I'm not installing any apps. just leave it as default.. only installed bbs and root to track the wakelock.. but the issue still exit.
I've drain the battery to 0 and charged to 100% this morning. I've done what I can do.. and google more than hundred pages.. still no one can give me the solution. plz give me some idea to fix these sensors wakelock

Hi,
I'm really interested in this also, because for some time, bunch of "sensors" wakelocks stays at 40%. I kinda expect this to be the "always listening" double tap to unlock feature, but I'm also interested if everyone else is also getting it.
Also, what percentage of deep sleep do you get when phone is idling (overnight)?
did you try disabling all the gestures from settings?

I disabled all sensors and also knock feature.. Yet still no luck
I have those wakelocks, too, but I really don't worry about it. This phone uses less battery with the screen off than any phone I've ever seen. Whatever the cause of those wakelocks, they're not having any significant impact on battery life.
Hi
These past few days the battery has been draining ridiculously fast.
I charged it before bed and then it's basically sat with the screen off since.
34% battery gone to AndroidOS and Android System.
Better Battery Stats hasn't been very helpful as I'm not rooted. It does say that it's been "awake" 100% since unplugged.
Here's some shots. Anyone know particular culprits?

Delete everything inside your android folder in internal memory and memory card.
That would wipe all of my game saves etc wouldn't it?
Seems a background processing is keeping the phone awake. It might be because Bluetooth is on.
You can try using Greenify to Force Stop most of the apps (Does not require root). I find that my phone does not wake up much after it Force stopped most apps.
Do note that you would want to leave messaging apps running or you will not receive messages.
I have a Gear S connected by BT LE but I thought the point of BT LE was it's low power. ..
Ok. Update. Having turned off the Gear S and killing it's connection, that wasn't the cause as it's still 100% awake whilst screen off.
Ok. It seems to be Samsung's Gear Manager app. Uninstalled and it goes into deep sleep straight away. With it installed, even when not connected to anything, it keeps the phone awake.
I already have Greenify to keep apps under control.
Running CM12.1 on Lollipop. Juicedefender's mobile data feature is totally broken. I loved having that as it A) kept my data usage low, and B) really did a superb job on battery saving.
Is there any other app that controls the radios automatically? That is what I really need!
Thanks!

DS (Deep Sleep) Battery Saver worked for me in the past... I just leave data off 90% of the time anymore as I'm usually connected to WiFi.

Thanks, I'll look into that. I thought about manually controlling the LTE, but I know I would forget to turn it back on. Which would be bad since I mostly use web apps for messaging lol.
Hello guys. Which sensors are on the front of telephone? I was taking pictures for a guy who asked me the photos of the phone, so i took a couple of it with the second display off/on, and I noticed that there is a small LED that flashes intermittently when the phone is switched off the screen and some time when is on, below the front camera ... to the naked eye you do not notice it, in fact i have never seen, but if using a camera you see this LED that blinks continuously. With the phone turned on does not do it, only when it is switched off ...
It is not any reflection, I used two cameras and from different angles you see the same LED always flashing in the usual place ...
Does anyone know if it is normal this thing ??? Thanks

It's the proximity sensor.

But it should not go ON only for calls?

Nope, that behavior is completely normal.
The proximity sensor is also used to prevent the use of the power button and the fingerprint scanner when the is zero light. Personally this annoys me since I came from a Nexus 5X, and unlocking the phone in my pocket gives a feel of a faster unlock.
Great, thank you all for the answers. I was already worried lol
However Note 5 did not do it ... meh!
Thanks again!
