Terrible battery life

I have a huge problem with battery life on my G2. Everything started after playing with Kitkat custom roms and kernels.. With every single combinations (rom + kernel) I always have battery life problem. Yesterday I decided to go back to JB and see how it will works, but.. I have same issue on it.. I am using my phone for 19 hours and 2.19h on screen and 27% of battery left. What can I do to deal with this problem?

Also curious...

Few screenshoots from wakelock detector.

Here's an idea: Uninstall all that crap and test again.
Also, post English screenshot if you want help. This isn't a ->Insert your weird language here<- forum.

I'd clean reinstall a new ROM (I'm on cloudy G3 with native kernel) and just use Clean Master to help boost battery life. Mine is very good so far. Around 5 hrs of SOT and almost 3 days of standby.

To the OP,
Are you restarting your phone in either silent or vibrate? That's what caused my 1013 wakelock in the past. I always reboot without vibrate/silent on now, and have not seen this issue.
Secondly, game playing will use a lot more battery than normal. It heats up the phone and works the GPU/CPU. For example, my battery only lasts 3.5 hours with Ingress playing.
Third, looks like you have some Android OS wake locks. Do you have Google now/location settings on and reporting?

[Q] Problem with process "Multimedia" in Battery - Kitkat 4.4.2

Hello everybody,
I've looked everywhere on the web for an explanation of what has been happening since long time ... but I have not found anything.
Why I find into processes that "suck up" battery always "Multimedia" on top level?
I do not understand what could depend on .... moreover the percentage increases more and more during the days.

In the second picture there are 3 packages inside. I exclude the first two because I'm not downloading anything but I think it may depend on "Archivio multimediale".

I have a 32 GB MicroSD with stored music, videos and photos (many) but I thought that once phone start and it runs "multimedia scan" in background should no longer affect the battery consumption after it will be finished.
Please give me an explanation.
Thank you!

I woke up this morning to the same exact problem.
My phone went from fully charged down to 15% while I was sleeping in a little extra. 3 hours and it was dead.
Since then I have installed a few items. Particularly the Apollo app that CM makes you use.
The multi media crap has so far stopped.

2 Things:
What build number are you on?
Are you having any issues with battery life? (Random jumps in percentage, decreasing battery life, etc.)

That's really odd. Are the odd parts where you were expecting it to charge? If so, something might be wrong with the charger, or it might have had a bad connection. It looks like it kept jumping all over the place. Either that or something bugged out. Other than that, I have no idea.

Yeah i expected it to charge... Haven't had problems with the charger before.
Guess I'll just try a different charger and get it to 100% hopefully that will clear out the history and I'll go from there.

battery is draining twice faster

Hey everyone,
my Note 4's battery (SM-N910F) is draining really fast. I bought 3 new batteries (1 samsung from their site and 2 rav power) and my battery still only holds for like 3 to 4 hours (instead of the whole day as before).
Can you help me figure out a fix?
Thanks !
Android 6.0.1 is running.
Version number MMB29M.N010FFXXU1DQL2.
Baseband N910FXXS1DQA1

3 -4 hours when using it? That is great. However, if standby is affected then you need to see what is running in the background and affecting the battery. Use BetterBatteryStats and or Gsm Battery monitor

no, 3-4 hours when almost not using it ! Before, the battery was lasting all my work day. Now at lunch, it's done.
I installed Gsm battery monitor, here's what I get:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}

Do a search on android system battery drain and try some of the fixes. Something is running causing the drain. Google or other backup or something constantly syncing etc.

Finally, I did a full factory reset and now the battery is back to normal!

WhatsApp / Facebook on background alot of the time

Hey guys,
I bought OnePlus 6T last week, so far I'm really liking the phone but there is something strange with the battery stats:
I charged the phone yesterday to 100% before going to sleep, then left it out of the charger to see how much it would use, in 9 hours it used 5% (it's okay, but maybe it could be better?), the strange this is, from the dump file from BBS attached, you can see that WhatsApp and Google play services were using sensors all the time, what's is happening with them?
Also, on the process tab, it's showing Telegram on top, what does it mean?
Now, after 30% being used with 2.4 screen hours, I can see these stats on these stats on the battery menu:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Facebook used 13% with 1:36 hours in use and 13:25 in background
Telegram used 7% with 0 in use and 0 background (I didn't even open it today)
WhatsApp used 2% with 19min active and 4 hours in background
Can anyone help with what might be happening here?
I attached a dump from BBS from the moment I wake up (idle) and from now.
Thanks.

Facebook app is just a rubbish. It's known for draining battery

Yes I know Facebook drains lots of battery, but that does not explain why it's running so much time in the background, I have checked other people phones and they do not experience such thing, this is probably something with my phone

get rid of the facebook app...problem solved, and you will have a happier life..
