Recently i've had some issues with my galaxy s2. I'm leaving it at night with wi-fi on cos i forget (but i'm sure i've forgotten it on before).
I left it at about 50% and it got drained to 0% by the morning.
Usually it only drains 3-4% if on standby at night.
I'm running gingerbread 2.3,6 XWKK5 kernel.
Betterbatterystats says:
-Wifi on for 15 hrs 21mins
-Awake for 9hrs 22mins
-Screen on 22mins
There are no weird partial wakelocks.
All i see is the phone that keeps waking itself up during the night...
Has anyone experienced this?
I find it really weird that there's nothing in better battery stats partial wakelocks that can explain this weird behaviour. ANyone have a clue?
There were probably some apps in background. you'd better to shut down wifi always
wifi shouldn't do that
have a good look under bbs, something should of been on that kept the phone awake and trust me its not the wifi...
awake for 9 hours... doing what exactly???
whats ur first battery sucker that u complain of ?
Another way to look into this is by using juice defender.
It's a battery saving app that shuts down wifi and data connection while your screen is off and believe me it does save a lot of the battery this way.
By using this you can tell for sure whether it's actually your wifi that is casing the battery drain.
Wifi always on or always searching has been posted as a battery drain countless time .
WiFi set off when screen off .

sometimes that leads to a bad app asking for a sync/push more often with no data available causing even more wakelocks, but in general yes disabling data in the android settings gives big batt boost in life with less usability from the phone... then u'll have to get used to enable/disable every time u need to use data

I don't disagree to what you are saying but since I started using this software I noticed a big difference to my battery life.

Just wanted to see if anyone else has noticed that Google services is causing a substantial drain on their device? For me its using more than my screen (2-3 hours screen on). I've noticed it on the stock deodexed and CleanROM (both clean installs)
Heard updating the Play Store helps, but I'm already on v4.1.10
Thanks

I have the exact same thing on CleanROM as well. I would get about 2 hours and 10 minutes or so of total screen on time, yet Google Services would be sitting up around 65% of total battery usage. I would get idle drain that was terrible. I switched the Hyperdrive this afternoon because of that. I don't know what was causing it but it was absolutely a nightmare. I could watch my battery drop about 20% in an hour which is unacceptable.
Hopefully someone else can chime in on this and to why it's happening. It was only five packages that the system reported as being part of the Google Services as well but I don't remember what they are at this point.
update your google play to 4.1.10 http://phandroid.com/2013/05/29/google-play-store-4-1-10-update-download/
I thought there were other threads about this, but I'm not finding them where I thought. Anyway, make sure your Play Store version is 4.1.10. If it isn't, install that version. Version 4.1.6 has a location bug that consumes more battery than it should - not a lot, but more than necessary. You can find the Play Store version at the bottom of the Settings menu in the app.
Edit: damn chrismyu beat me to it.
OP specifically stated he was on 4.1.10 already. I am also on 4.1.10 but it isn't helping.

Seriously? Read more than the first sentence of the original post before replying.
OP, the screen on-time is useless without knowing total on-battery time. If the screen on-time is 2 hours and Google Services used the same amount of battery but the device on-time was 30+ hours...that would be acceptable.
The way the phone reports battery usage is quite odd. I've experienced this Google Services bug a couple times. But now, its near the bottom of the list, whereas this morning it was at the top of the list and had drained 10% in two hours with almost no usage at all. Gsam reports the same results as the OS when checked.

When it happened to me, I was losing roughly 20% an hour with MAYBE 10 minutes screen-on time in that hour. It curved off here and there, but I would lose an insane amount extremely fast. Ten minutes should net me maybe 3-5% loss on medium brightness. However, I was losing the other 15% simply from it idling in my pocket.

I've used GSAM as well to try and figure out some wake locks, as well as using BetterBatteryStats, and I can't seem to narrow it down.

Are these statistics starting from a full battery? Or a partial charge?
The reason I ask is that if it was a partial charge (like it was at 30-40% and you charged it up to 80% and then it was dropping quick) that might not be an accurate read either. It might not have ever been at 80% charge when you unplugged it, and then the meter is just catching up.
20% in 10 minutes is completely impossible to actually do. You could be streaming at full speed and playing the hardest-rendering game on the play store and still get like 3+ hours of battery (which would equate to like 5% every 10 minutes).
Assuming your memory is correct on the figures, there must have been something wrong with the metering of the battery. It's just not possible to burn through that much juice that quickly.

Didn't see your post before I replied a few minutes ago. I charge my phone nightly. I took it off the charger at 545 AM, and by the time I reached work at 7 I had reached 90% battery. Reported under three minutes of screen time but over ten minutes of awake time under Google Services and several minutes of GPS time.
Is it doing something when I am driving? It doesn't happen every day though... My maps app has location reporting off, history is checked, but I haven't had issues with keeping it on before.

I may have mis-typed that, or maybe you misunderstood what I was saying. I mean that in an hour time, with 10 minutes of reported screen-on time, the battery was down 20%. I woke up this morning from having my phone on the charger all night, responded to a few text messages as well as checked my email. That took up about 10 minutes of screen time. Throw my phone in my pocket and head off to work. Look at it again about an hour later and I'm sitting at 81% left on my charge.
I looked at my battery usage at that point, and it showed Google Services sitting at 85% usage, above screen usage as 7 or 8%. So within an hour of being off the charger I had dropped 19%, and only 10 minutes of screen-on time had occurred. The rest of the drain came from Google Services.

Coincidentally you only read the first sentence of my reply too lol the second paragraph of the reply he quoted was asking for the total device on-time and such, so he was right to quote it and reply to it.
OP...your case might be alright. 10% in 1:15 with 10 minutes of screen on-time isn't great...but it's not super abnormal. There's the possibility that the drive involves a few places where the phone is searching for a good signal, or constant wifi spots along the route, or even something to do with bluetooth. I wake up at 7:30 every morning and get out of bed around 8:30.I spend that hour checking email and reading the news (on my phone). At the end of the hour I'm generally hovering just over 90% battery, and that's with constant screen on and WiFi use.
That being said, chrisjm: yours is definitely bad. The phone literally shouldn't be able to burn through 20% battery in an hour unless you're actively playing an online game at full brightness and volume. That's extremely excessive. In your case, there might be something wrong with either the phone or Google Services. It could be an app that's running on the system that's just being reported as Google Services (like a sync, or even a Samsung integration app). Narrowing it down though would be tough.

Yes, and for that...we thank you!
I just started noticing a giant drain due to Google Services. I'm stock/unrooted, and using a 5800mAh extended battery. Until two days ago, I was easily getting a full-day's heavy use with 40-60% still remaining after ~15 hrs, with no supplemental charge during the day.
Monday and Tuesday, battery was down to <20% after ~8 hrs. Today, it got down to ~50% after 5 hrs, and I put it on the charger.
I figure the drain is probably due to an app that I've installed, but it's a new phone and I've been installing apps like crazy, and nothing else in the Battery Usage list really jumps out. Right now, I've got my eye on Waze, since I figure it might be a big Google Services user. Also had installed the Facebook app around the same time. Just uninstalled both; will see if that changes anything. Will report back here if I can identify the culprit app.
A brief followup to my previous post:
Yesterday, battery was still draining quickly and biggest hog by far was Google Services, After deleting Waze and Facebook, battery drain is back to normal (after 6 hrs of typical use, extended battery is still ~75% charged), and Google Services is 3rd biggest battery user, way behind Screen and comfortably behind Maps. I really think it was at least one of those guys doing my battery in...maybe both.
I may not be motivated enough to reinstall Waze and Facebook to see which is the main culprit, but for others wondering about battery consumption, you might try paying some attention to those two guys.
Can we get a consensus on whether battery life is better or worse, for those who have updated to Jelly Bean?
From my own experience, I'd say it's dramatically worse. After updating and using it for a week, I noticed the battery does drain a bit quicker than usual. And last night, i thought to myself, no big deal, I'll just factory reset, maybe that'd help.
Well, that was a bad move, strangely. After factory resetting and setting up my phone and apps, I noticed I had zapped 25% in just under 2 hours. No heavy WiFi usage either, just zipping around the phone setting preferences and just installing like 5 apps.
No such thing, battery performance depends on individual usage. I'd suggest using BetterBatteryStats to determine which apps may be causing wakelocks, and Greenify which hibernates apps of your choice to prevent them from running background services.
I'm not outright saying JB drains battery more than ICS, I'm saying it does for me, under the same usage. What I am wondering if others find JB has increased or decreased or not changed their battery life.
In my case, battery life has improved a lot. Using DX the same as before and now it lasts for 2 days where on ICS i was charging it every night.

Improved battery life for me also. With moderate use two days nicely. Yesterday almost every hour some browsing and theming, all time wifi and after twenty hours still fifty percent. ( I have only a little number of background apps, like launcher, whatsapp and notification toggles)

i get atleast 12 hours of usage no.matter what on jb i got a max of 21 hrs usage for me battery life has improved but by a minor scale nothing too impressive actually
however what i really appreciate is when it comes to gaming i ran nfs most wanted for 2 hrs and some other games for another 2 hrs still got 4 hrs of on screen time

In my opinion the battery life is preatty much the same. I think this difference may appears due to the apps installed.
Longer battery life for usage mainly text and social, plus light browsing.
Build it power saving is good enough. Can stand for two days.
For me there is no change in battery life. However, I'm new with my HTC desire x(one month), my usage time last maximum 4.5hrs if I use continuously, browsing, play store, etc. but if I use my phone more less, like picking call, once a day checking play store, I get usage time around 2 hrs. But the battery life in total including idle time, it's 2day. Not sure if its normal. Can anyone give me some tips or help?
Btw, my wifi is always on, but not using continuously. Disabled all auto sync. I want to keep in wifi for viber and whatsapp and my favourite HTC clock and weather widget. Do u think this wil drain my battery in idle mode?
I tried to switch off wifi while going to sleep night. Approx 8hours when wifi off, idle mode, only 1% was discharged from battery. Not bad for idle mode. But usage consumption is horrible. Just going through some app menu and setting, not applying any changes, within 4 minutes it takes 1% of battery power. Is this normal for everyone? I think this is called as poor battery life for desire x. Now if I play a game or chat, message it might be worse. My brightness was set to auto and most of the time I prefer to keep it zero brightness. Because the auto brightness is not going to its minimum level of brightness even in dark night situations.

I think your mobile is better than desire x then. Because its not about apps for me. Whenever the screen is on battery drains faster. Sometimes I only attend some calls and SMS, then battery stays 2 days but the usage time is 2 hours. If I use continuously, then I get max 4.5 hours.
After flashed Android 6.0 I noticed worse battery life than with 5.1.1
Looking for a culprit I noticed in the battery status chart that wifi is always on. It is a solid line with no interruptions anywhere.
This did not happen before. Thinking about a bad app, I factory reset the tablet and did not install any third-party app.
Even in this pristine conditions wifi is always on.
Do you have the same problem?
Thanks!
I definitely do not have the problem. In fact I have the opposite problem. I used to have twitter setup on my tablet (just for news sites like AP, etc.) and then used pushbullet to notify me on my PC/other devices. Since I flashed 6.0 once it goes into doze I stop getting those notifications until I turn it on again.
Last night I put the tablet down around 1am at 86% and this morning at 7:30am it was at 84%
Thanks. If you click on the chart on the battery section of the settings, what do you see? I see a solid uninterrupted line for WiFi, and interrupted lines for Awake and Screen On.

Was away for 3 hours and when I came back home my Nexus 9 had turned off wifi. So it seems it works but it takes a lot longer before it turns off wifi. Used to be 15 minutes but what it is now I don't know.
Edit: tested it now, it's now 30 minutes before it turns off wifi.

Sent from my SCH-I605 using XDA Free mobile app
I read over on the Nexus 5 forum that there was a wifi always on scanning bug going around that people with curing by disabling WiFi scanning under location services. I'm happy to say, after flashing fresh factory images, my 9 and 5 are working flawlessly. Like someone posted above, both of my devices left all night and half the next day only knocked a few percent off the battery. I usually charge my Nexus 5 halfway through the day, but yesterday I did not and had 40% when I put it on charge going to bed. My wife took the OTA as opposed to flashing fresh on her Nexus 5, but she has had no issues either.
I'm loving this update on both of my devices so far. The animations are so much smoother.

I definitely do not have the problem. In fact I have the opposite problem. I used to have twitter setup on my tablet (just for news sites like AP, etc.) and then used pushbullet to notify me on my PC/other devices. Since I flashed 6.0 once it goes into doze I stop getting those notifications until I turn it on again.
Last night I put the tablet down around 1am at 86% and this morning at 7:30am it was at 84%

Did you try going into the battery optimization settings and turning off battery optimization for Pushbullet? I don't know if it would help, but who knows?

Actually after the first day or so it got much better. They are still delayed but if thats the tradeoff for the insane standby time I'm ok with it.
Here are my N9's current battery stats:
Tablet Idle Time (i.e. time off charger): 2d 4h 40m
Screen on time: 1h 17m
Battery Percentage: 74%!!!
I use my tablet to cast shows and did some light browsing/PDF reading (trying to figure out how to get my son to sleep ) so thats why the low SOT. Normally probably without even touching the tablet I'd already be sub 50%
I believe the WiFi always on showing under battery life is a bug. My n6 is the same way. Recently went on a trip with no access to WiFi. Turned WiFi off but yet it still shows it's always on under battery. I don't notice any additional battery usage so I assume it is just a bug and hopefully will be fixed in the next update. I believe the bug was also present in the developer previews
Here are my screenshots from Battery settings, BetterBatteryStats and Wakelock Detector Lite:

It happens every single day, completely reproducible, for at least a few months, time in which I did not install any new apps.
Always Android OS, but without any other details.
Completely stock G5 H850.
During daytime I use 4G with good signal, and evenings at home I switch to 2G because I use Wifi, so cell signal cannot be a problem.
Any kind of advice ? I'm not a newbie in Android.
I know the last resort will be factory reset, but didn't have time to do it.
If it remains a problem downgrade to marshmallow. This phone won't sleep on nougat. Shame as in most other respects nougat is slightly better. But not for battery life.

What mode do you put wakeblock on to achieve this? Are you rooted.
Location causes this problem
I'm back on nougat as I prefer how the phone runs compared to marshmallow. Scrolling is much smoother and phone gets less warm. I appear to have fixed the wakelock bug by using GPS only instead of WiFi and network scanning and GPS. On GPS device only I get 4 hours 30 screen on over a day with only 1.5 percent battery loss an hour. That's despite permenant sync to my Garmin watch. I'm pleased with this. For a 2k screen and 2800 battery this is very good.
