From the past few days the screen on time that I get has drastically reduced, I easily used to get 8 hours + but now nothing more than 5-6 hours.
The biggest concern is Android system which is draining the battery.
My phone is rooted and runs on radon kernel

i've been running Nero 4.1 since it was posted and battery life was fine, suddenly last week it has been cut in half. I didn't load any new apps or change any of my settings or usage habits. I was getting 25+ hours and now I get 16 tops with very light usage. My battery stats say display is using 73% but the phone is idle most of the day. What could have caused this? Also I have tried conditioning the battery, it didn't seem to make a difference ,and, I flashed the rom with 100% charge.
did you condition it right?
I got my refurb LG Optimus from T-mobile a little over two weeks ago. I set it up with Groove IP and have wifi on almost all day with the phone in airplane mode. Running stock 2.2 and stock kernel, haven't rooted or anything. Generally I had it unplugged for about 14 hours a day and would charge it nightly. Battery life would get down in the 20-30% range on occasion and it was generally looking like I would have gotten about 20 hours total if I would have taken it down to 0%.
Without remembering making any major changes (updated a couple apps maybe) I am currently at 2 days 4 hours since last charge and battery is at 60%. This is the first time it's going this long ... basically two nights ago I was about to plug it in when I noticed the battery level was still really high so I didn't bother. Still high last night so I again didn't plug it in.
Any ideas what would cause this to happen? Looking at the battery use, it is mostly the same as before (50% wifi, 19% phone idle, 15% cell standby, 10% android system, a little to display and some other stuff). Was the battery level indication just wrong the first couple weeks? i.e. when it said 30% left it really might have been at like 80%?
Not complaining at all of course and I hope I keep getting this battery life.
Android system always seems to be the top user of battery on my phone, even above screen! The days I have the screen off and the phone just idling I'll use up 20% just from android system and kernel. Any ideas why?
I'm using moto z play for last 18 months and its battery lasts for about 25-30 hours on normal usage. since yesterday i'm having some battery issues which started as i installed Age of empires: castle siege, phone straightaway heated up, i uninstalled quickly. I'm using clash of clans for past some time and it didn't appear to cause any issue... since yesterday night my phone heated up and battery drained within 7-8 hours on ideal state as i slept. it was showing in battery stats that es file explorer is taking huge chunk of batter i.e 62% . I uninstalled it, but even after uninstallation it is now showing app "10140" is draining my battery its like 10% per hour, with over 9 hours battery usage since my last full charge, I'm attaching the screenshot. Not able to understand why uninstalled app is still eating my phone's battery, is it some kind of malware? how to get rid of it?
Hi
So about a month ago I went from AOSP Extended 8.1 to MIUI 9.5 just to get a feel of the skin and to have better battery compared to the poor battery management of 8.1. At that time I used to get 4-5 hours SOT. Not too shabby.
After switching to MIUI I observed that I got manageable battery life but didn't like the overall look of the ROM. So I then reverted to 8.1 using Nitrogen OS. The issue started here, with even worse SOT than before and 40-50 % drain overnight. I didn't want to charge more than once everyday and decided to move to 7.1.2 as I was aware that Nougat had the best of both worlds, with much better battery and it being stock. Looked up LineageOS 14.1. Saw it was a pretty old build but I didn't think much of it and flashed it. The moment it booted up and I tried to install a couple of apps, the 70% battery went to 0 and the phone shut down. It happened a couple more times and I concluded it was an issue with the ROM. I then downloaded AOSP Extended v4.6 (7.1.2), the unofficial build from the comments and to my dismay, the battery issue has worsened. Now I'm getting less than 2.5 hours of standby, <1 hr of SOT, and the percentages are dropping by the minute! I go to bed with 50-60% charge and wake up to a switched off phone with 0% left.
Is this the complete end of the battery? Do I have to change the battery or can this be solved via alternate ROMs or kernels?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks and Regards
Smells like a badly degraded battery
