Battery discharge in the night? - Moto E Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey!
I just wanted to confirm if it's normal or something is wrong with my device?
Last night, before sleeping my Moto E was at 99% and in these 8 hours, it's come to 90%.
Is this normal?
I had turned the sleep mode on. But my wifi was on too, for the whole time.
My nexus 7 on the other hand hardly consumed 1 or 2% battery in the whole night on standby. So, I was a bit worried.

It depends on what background apps are running. Looks a little more than normal but I won't lose sleep on that.

Background apps would be twitter, Facebook messenger, facebook, Whatsapp, and xabber.
Twitter syncs once in 2 hours. But all of them have push notifications.

Putting on the Wi-Fi for the whole night caused this darin.. And also see if your device isn't got too high brightness.. I would suggest to lower the brightness to 10 percent and turn off Wi-Fi whenever you are not using it.. Hope this helps.

Those coupled with Wi-Fi can surely eat up battery.
Also make sure your location settings are also off.

Wow I Think My Moto E Is Better In 8 Hours I Saw Only 5% In Decrease. Using Apps Like 9GAG, Real Racing 3 And Twitter [Other Stuffs System App Provides Me]
Note: Using Only 1 Sim, Didn't Use Any Network Connection, Recieved No Calls.

I actually had 6 hours and 20 minutes yesterday but i forgot to take a screenshot before i charged the device. I will take one next time
But yeah, i am usually hitting at least 5 hours per charge.
How could that be? I even turn off my gps via wifi and set screen brightness to minimum auto. My god...

Quick question do you take it off charge when light turns green and display reads 100%, my light goes green at about 97% charged, just curious if im doing it correctly

The light normally turns green when it is around 90 - 95% charged. It is just to let you know that it is almost charged.

I am not sure.
I have brightness set to about 50 - 60%. Mixture of wifi and 3g, mostly wifi.
Gmail and auto sync on. Stamina mode ON.
I have been hitting 5 hours every time and sometimes more. I will say though, it took my battery a good 5 - 10 charges before the capacity improved a lot. To begin with, stamina mode would say around 1 day and 12 hours battery remaining. Now it says sometimes 11 days remaining. This shows me that you need to give the device a good few charges before the battery will work at its fullest capacity.

How do you do the full cycles?, do you allow the phone to turn off by itself (1% battery left) and then fully charge to 100%?

Yeah, I just let it drain until it switches off and then charge it again.
I would do this for the first week then after that, just make sure i keep the battery topped up when im near a charger.
The charging is super fast though which is 1 thing i love. After owning an HTC One which was painfully slow to charge, the Z Ultra is a revelation haha

Yeah maybe give it a little time.
I have absolutely no complaints with the battery life. A minimum of 5 hours screen on time is a lot and more than enough to make it through a full day.
I can see a lot of people who currently own a nexus 4, Galaxy S3 etc, if they decide to switch to this will be blown away by the battery life.
After 1 day of Full Usage
After 13 hours since the phone was removed from the charger I still have 1% of battery left. I was able to get 9 hours of Screen Time, pretty impressive.

That's impressive but.. there's no apps seen on the list which suggests you did nothing with it with screen on for 9hrs

Weird Battery Usage Behavior

I have some weird behavior with my XZU, the other day after a full charge I left it idle overnight at 100% and the next morning was still at 100%, amazing.
But there are other opportunities when the battery will go down pretty fast, today with no active apps is going down at 1% to 2% per hour, currently is at 52%. I have attached print screens from BBS, what's your opinion?
NOTE: I have Stamina Mode ON

"qcom_rx_wakelock": 12:44 minutes. That's the only thing that sticks out. Could you take a screenshot of partial wakelocks and kernel wakelocks?

I just took these new screen shoots of Partial and Kernel Wakelocks and now there is a process called "AudioOut_3" and the phone has been sitting idle
AudioOut is running when you're listening to music, or use apps that emits audio. Have you listened to music after plugging the phone off the charger?
*Backup* is backup, I guess? Still, 15 minutes wakelock is a lot.
Fullsync is Whatsapp that's syncing in the background.
PowerManagerService is the charging service which runs while it's charging. It should not still run after it's no longer charging. Reboot if it does.
Overall, not the worst I've seen, but those wakelocks could've been much much shorter. What does a wakelock mean? Whenever a process is waking up the phone to do a task while in deep sleep/standby. If an app uses 20 minutes to complete a task, then it'll suck the battery, and when you unlock the phone again, you'll soon notice that it's been using a lot of battery while it's been "sleeping". Most apps with background sync will do this, and if you have a bad connection at the time, it'll use even longer to update the app.

qcom_rx_wakelock - 12m 44s
No Data connection & No or Unknown Signal - 1hr 58m 7s.
Your phone lost its network signal and is trying its best to get it back thereby pushing more power to its tx/rx circuits and using more battery in the process..
Just a not so intelligent guess.. lol

Maybe this is related to the Stamina Mode, because I have it ON. The phone has been on my house all the time, with T-Mobile signal and Wifi always. I know Stamina mode will turn OFF Wifi and Data, maybe that's the reason??
Well,, I understand stamina mode turning off Data and WiFi..
But checking on the screenshot, it also said "no or unknown signal" so it means your mobile signal is lost also?

Pretty sure I just solved the battery drain problem....

So I, like many others with the G2, have been experiencing inexplicable battery drain even after shutting down most services (i.e. Google Music, location tracking, CIQ, etc.).
I got my phone last friday and was getting absolute **** battery life until last night. For example, at 70% brightness with a lot of internet surfing, I wouild get aboiut 2.5 hours of screen time before the battery was at 10%. Just the other day, I went from 100% charge to 30% charge with only 1 h 35 min of screen time at 65% brightness. Two nights ago I lost 30% battery life over 6 hours while I slept! My typical usage of browsing the net saw the meter drop 1% for every 1-2 minutes of use at 70% brightness (wifi or 4G LTE)
I was about to return my phone for a replacement until I did more research on this android "mediaserver" and realized that it could possibly be the issue. Checking the default battery app showed that Mediaserver went from 15 to 25% of the total power used on those days. So i went into Google Settings > Google+ > Auto backup and shut that **** off
Bingo!!!!
I only lost 5% last night (9 hours) while I slept and today I have been using the phone for the past 4 hours with less than a 10% loss so far. Browsing the net gets me around 4-5 minutes for each 1% drop at 65% brightness. This is all on a stock ROM that was rooted to disable the CIQ. Nowadays my mediacenter usage is no higher than 3% on any given charge. I will post pictures of GSAM and the stock battery app over the next few days as I test it from a 100% charge.
good find, it will solve some battery drains but not all

I added about 30% to my battery life by turning off Google Now and all the associated location reporting (went from charging every 2 days to every 3 days).
before running cm on my phone I use to get 7 hrs screen on time and about 20 hrs on one charge. I don't know why some ppl are having bad battery.
2 days and 5 hours of screen isn't good enough battery!

If you bothered to read my OP then you would see what I constitute as bad battery life. Namely, the intense drain while doing nothing and the lack of screen time for such a large battery. This phone is quoted by many to get around 5-7 hours of screen time regardless of what you can throw at it. Unfortunately, there are people that are experiencing drains like mine and can only get 2-3 hours of screen on time while only doing basic tasks. Most people do not experience this but the issue is quite prevalent in several other threads here.
Mediaserver can hang inexplicably, as G+ backup can too. Brth have happened to me.
Cycling the sync auto works for fixing the drain without disabling services.
Without a sc card, and even with, I recommend leaving it on.
Lose your phone, or get it stolen like my wife a couple months ago, and you'll wish it was on.

Op I read your entire post. I stated I personally haven't seen such abysmal battery life. What phone do those with battery life that's constantly draining have.. I mean vwz att d802 or etc? Maybe we can narrow down these incidences. Over night losing 30% is a lot. I usually lose 3-4% over night. I don't turn off anything. But I do use 4.4 Google search, hangout,market, and mostly all Google apps from 4.4. Could they be using less battery or draining less??

I think there is a setting for the Auto Backup of Google+ wherein you can do the following;
Back up photos only when there is a Wi-Fi connection available.
Back up videos only when there is a Wi-Fi connection available.
and
While charging only.
With these options, I think you will not have a problem with the battery esp while sleeping...

guys, its not about bad batterylife but a possible battery drain you may or may not have issues with.
granted Op can state a batterydrain vs the batterydrain, or state that this doesnt affect all, but if it does, this could be it

Your phone and the watch will use Bluetooth 4.0 which is really battery friendly. Not sure on the actual percentage though

I have an Xperia Z2 and the battery will usually last 36-48 hours on a charge, with my pebble connected all the time, but without the pebble connected i only get about 50 ish hours, so it doesnt make too much of an impact, im guessing the LG G Watch will do a similar amount of drain as its only pulling info over Bluetooth again so shouldnt drain too much.

Thanks for the info.
Just to throw in some info on the battery life of the watch. Mine has never gone below 40% by end of day with normal use so don't worry about the watch dieing, if that was even a concern. Its hard for me to weigh in on phone battery life, I have the Flex and I'm getting about 2 days one charge, unless I game for hours with it. I Think its adding a few hours.
Took my watch off charge at 7:50am today its now 15:10PM and I have 65% battery still.
Using following settings :
1. Screen always on
2. Show cards even when screen dimmed
3. Alert on phone and watch
4. Brightness level - 1
Usage has been quite High because its the first day I have used it, sent about 20 Texts and done some maths with it, also it seems there are problems with the software and after awhile it seems to disconnect from my nexus 5 even if the software on my phone thinks its still paired.
As for phone battery its reporting in battery stats nothing regarding android wear, and im at 60% battery from the morning and i have hardly used my phone apart from trying to figure out why stuff is refusing to pair or even work.
I also use CM11 nightlys and the snapdragon battery app on my N5 this might have something to do with all the disconnects

Yea, I would say if you aren't using a stock configuration there might be something else going on with your phone. All the reviews and impression videos I've seen haven't mentioned anything about frequent disconnects.

Screen on, brightness 2, been replying to texts all day, the G Watch has been off the charger since 06:00 and it's now 01:32 (19.5 hours on) and I've still got 40% left.
Can't really fault it. I just drop my G Watch on the charger every night when I go to bed. Easy.

Ditching the Snapdragon app has solved some disconnects, however it still disconnects at least 2 to 3 times a day.
Still on the same CM build, untill its been running for a week will i swap to another CM build to see if there is issues with the CM bluetooth
Zero disconnects on stock. ?

How's the battery life on Nexus 5 when it's paired with the Watch?
I assume that, aside from bluetooth, the Watch will use up some portion of the phone's battery for location services and other partial wakelocks?

Do you leave it on charge all night? Is it OK to do this? I've been taking it off charge when it's done and then powering it off at night. There should be a way to power off the screen while charging.

I reckon you could go 30 Hours before needing to charge both devices.
Wear from 8am to 9pm 55% remaining. Less than average day for notifications. It killed my G2 though. Had battery saving on for location. But it really chewed it. Just one day. I disabled location reporting again. Will see if that has any effect on phone battery vs any loss of functionality on the wear. But I'm very happy so far.

Love it!

Standby times : SD810 vs SD820(and newer phones)

I have been using by 6p for more than 1.5 years but never had amazing standby times. The phone used to last a day with decent standby but it never went to a second day with more than 50% battery even with light usage(1.5-2 hr SOT).
I recently got a Lenovo Zuk z2 as a secondary device. It uses SD 820 + 4gb ram. The standby times are crazy. With light usage,Always enabled 4G,some hotspot use and 2-3hr SOT, it easily crosses 3 day mark. It uses similar sized battery but it only has a FHD display.
Does anyone else's 6p offer better standby times ?
My 6P generally gets good idle drain. Usually less than .5 % drain per hour. Even better with wakeblock and naptime.

What apps do you run? Any messenger type apps such as FB Messenger? My idle drain is around 1.5% per hour with Wakelock and Greenify. Would love to get it down to .5%.

My 6p had disgusting battery life but that was when the device was being used. On standby I would lose about 1% over 3 hours

Mostly Tapatalk, YouTube, Spotify, Stitcher, messages and Brave browser. Don't use any extra messenger apps.

I guess the real culprit might be the messaging apps. I prefer not to use Wakeblock/Naptime as they mess with overall performance and results in lots of missed notifications.

Yes, I agree the messaging apps are the cause of the idle drain. Can't Greenify those apps, so will just have to put up with the drain. Still can get a full day of use with the 6P so all is not lost.
