Can you quantify the drain? Attach screenshots of the battery graph if you can... Use battery monitor widget to log the per minute battery drain with Wifi on, and then wifi off, then post back some objective observations so that we can establish if there is truly a problem...

40mA!!! Wow, that's huge... i get around 8mA average on both Wifi and Mobile Data (2G)
Dunno what could be causing it though... since its stock and all, i can't even ask you to change the ROM and check if the drain persists. But you, my friend, do have a problem!

yeah
thats my concern
maybe someone else with a stock rom can comment?
mayb somehow during the update from sense 2.1 to sense 3 something went wrong?
will a factory reset help?
unless theres an app thats using wifi even in standby?
sometimes when i wake the phone it shows 9ma..and then most times 40ma
getting awesome battery life on mobile data and with both off

What'S shown in your battery stats?
Did you do a full wipe before flashing?
Try a full wipe and reflash - only with little market apps installed
i did a full wipe with the tool you gave in your site
im using 3g
very few calls and sms
no games
very strange
every hour 20 % less

That's defintiv much too much.
Look at battery stats in settings - phone-info - batterty - drain (or something similar) if any market app drains your battery.
Did you restore system(!)settings with titanium?
Last exit: wipe everything (eg from recovery - I'm not lbc,so it's not my tool ), redownload (md5 sum!?), reflash - and do not install any market apps for the first hours. Battery drain should be max 1% per hour with screen off.

Did you perform the battery re-calibration that is recommended after new ROM install?
see LBC post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14981516&postcount=581 where he corrected the previously written method.
I'd recommend following these instructions and then check battery usage again.
This thread should not have been started here in Development section, but either as post in LBC ROM thread or as new thread in general.

I never ever did such a re-calibration, but perhaps it helps...
Normaly battery indicator is correct after at last 2 days of normal usage (I always plug in over night and never turn off the phone - so seems that it re-calibrates itself)

mod please...
I had the same problem with lbc 0.5.2. The battery life was like 12 hours normal use.
So i went back to lbc 0.5.1 and everything works fine. Standby time now more then 36 hours.
Maybe this will help you for a while.

Sorry to repeat, but did you try battery re calibration yourself and not the version described on post one of LBC thread but the new and corrected version where you reset battery stats using app at 100 mentioned in post #581

Hey, sorry that I don't wrote that I tried this too.
I wrote with LBC about it. He told me, that he dont has the problem.
I also thought, that maybe the value isnt right, so I dont recharged it, but at 1 percent the phone turned off.
With 0.5.1 I dont have any problems.
mine drains fast as well...
I have followed all the instructions for a newbie with android in terms of saving battery life, but I still feel that my battery drains fast than the normal. Here is the scenario...
Full charge @ around 10-11pm, with one hour extended charging.
Turn off wi-fi before sleeping @ 11:30pm.
In the morning, battery is at 99% capacity as per battery indicator. Screen is at 25% brightness.
Turn on mobile network connection upon arriving at work @ 7am, there's no wi-fi in the office.
At about 9-10am, battery indicator is at 52% capacity. I normally use my phone in browsing Facebook, playing a li'l poker before working (my office is secluded), some browsing etc. I don't watch videos on my phone.
At around 12noon to 1pm, I connect my phone to USB charging in my PC, battery is at 25% only.
I don't think this is normal. My best guess is that the network connection is draining my battery, but I have no other choice but to use it. I'm need it turned on while in office to be connected to the outside world...
Anyway to extend battery life???

From 99% to 52% in 2 to 3 hours?! No that's not normal. Install "better battery stats" from this thread...

Does this mean you are connecting to data through the mobile network?
Is your wifi connection still switched on as well?
If wifi is searching for a connection all the time this will seriously drain the battery.

Depends on their sync settings. The battery stats app will show you which is the greatest consumer. If it happens to be facebook, dial back the usage. I used IM+ briefly, but uninstalled it. I can't remember why. I'm not on facebook.

I do the calibration after any flashing of custom rom. And it's allways helps to me, battery live is 2-3 days after this, and 1 day or few hours if not calibrated after flashig new rom.
Android 2.3.5 roms drain battery mush lower, and work faster. Flash it and calibrate battery after.

[Q] Bad battery life :(

I have done the following already
Location services disabled
Google Now disabled
Location reporting disabled
Wifi Scanning disabled
wiped cache
G is still getting drained quick. Screen on time doesnt cross 2.5-3.5 hours . I keep wifi and 3g both on

Battery drain app might give you some ideas, I'm averaging 0.85% hour with location and google now on
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.WazaBe.android.BatteryDrain
There are threads and a bug report with Motorola regarding this. It seems sometimes once GPS is used the battery continues to drain at 1-3% per hour until you reboot.
It may not be the issue in your case but it looks likely as the drain you see when the phone is not awake looks very similar to the problem.
If it drains in airplane mode and the phone shows as never awake then its the same problem.
For now don't use GPS or if you do then reboot directly after.

If you use your camera, then that might be the problem. Google itself noted a bug in Kit Kat that may run down the battery if you use the camera. Do a search on Google for more details...

If you are getting the weird drain issue that seems to be related to GPS then maybe best to use battery saving. Depends his bad you need GPS though. So up to you really.
battery drain around 2.5 % /hr . Basically havent been using phone after 82%

battery discharge while screen off

I charged it to 100% before going to sleep. When I woke up in the morning, the battery was 82%. I mean srsly wtf ? I have no idea what's going on. This draining issue has started after I've started using oneplus power bank . plz help me. Also there r no wakelocks so that's not an issue.

Post also wakelocks fom GSam Some running app is using up your battery
Here's the app usage screenshot
Here is what I do,
1. Install Battery Monitor Widget from PlayStore.
2. Use the "History" tab in the application to measure the battery drain when idle. The application records the drain every 10 minutes.
I typically have a -6mA drain when the phone is asleep (Google Now running, Location set to "battery saving"). This should give you a good idea on how your phone is behaving.
Gsam sucks, you need to use something like BetterBatteryStats to effectively track down what's causing the wakelock. Get BBS, run the phone normally for a few hours, and then post screenshots of the Other, Partial Wakelocks, and Alarms screens in BBS.

Actually "battery saving" location eats more battery, than Device only since it's using WiFi + Cellular instead of GPS. At least it's my experience, that I have a bit less drain on Device Only, than on Battery saving.
After a week of using these apps.. I've found that there are no wakelocks, still the battery drains overnight.
Will the battery recaliberation help?
Or maybe chaning the rom?
I'm on stock rom as of now. Non rooted.
PLease please suggest me something.

I had issues with battery draining when I left my phone somewhere with low signal strength overnight.
Also I experienced battery drains when my I had a slow internet connection. It may be that some applications are trying to sync, but they are unable to due to slow connection. So they try again and again. (I have this issue with K9-Mail).
I would also suggest to check if Google Location Reporting ist switched on. It was also a battery drainer I had a problem with in the past.
So before you start flashing ROMs, make sure this is not related to signal or synchronization problems.
What is causing the battery drain ???
Here r some screenshots

Obviously Google+, it tries to sync something, maybe pictures.

Cell standby drain

hi,
does anybody else have huge cell standby drain? it consumes most of my battery at around 27% over a day. 10% of it happened overnight. I am still testing for wakelocks and signal strength, but I hope someone had this issue already, and maybe found a solution.

Yeah cell standby drain is high even for me right now. I had it on normal U11 but it didn't affect usage.
On here, my battery life is only 5 hours SOT over 24 hours, so the same as U11. Cell standby drain took 30% battery.

5 hours SOT is not great for me, at least from this big a battery, it should be a comfortable 5 hours not just barely.
I have identified the biggest culprit. it is location services. on battery saver it consumed 15% overnight. if I turn it off it was only 4%.I am testing a few other options. tonight I will check how high accuracy affects it, then location history if it does not solve it
Today, mobile network standby absolutely destroyed my battery. It used 40% of my battery.

Do you leave mobile data on overnight?
Could be that its swopping from 4g/3g constantly which can kill your battery.
could try changing the sim modes by typing *#*#4636#*#* in the dialer? experiment under phone info, set preferred network type.

Setting to 3g only for example didn't really change much.
Also it seems that your U11+ may not be going into deep sleep. I don't always have wifi/data on all the time and overnight my battery drain is only 2 to 3% as stated in previous post and mobile network standby was 30%. But it's currently on 4% so not sure what the difference is...
HTC haven't solved this issue since U11…Maybe needed more people to report this bug or HTC won't do anything for this
In developer options try turning off always on data. It's an Oreo feature but seems an unnecessary drain on battery.

only affects WiFi usage
I think I solved the issue.
I usually only use data, leave location on (battery saver mode without wifi scanning, Google location history enabled).
the thing that likely solved it for me was to reset the network settings.
Settings/System/Reset/Network settings reset
it goes to sleep properly I get 1-2% drain overnight.
alternatively somebody mentioned that clearing cache for sense home might do it as we. I did it both, and no longer have the issue (for 3 days, right now I am turning stuff back on to see if it might be something else)
if someone has the issue and tries it, let me know if this is an actual solution for you
Will want to see actual confirmation though with battery stats after a full day otherwise these claims are moot
Not saying you're lying, but evidence always helps rather than text lol

here's the past 4 days
I am not sure why GSam only saved 4 days, I was running it for more. bot on the first day I still had the issue, and since then I was trying to fix it.
the only 2 other things that I can think of what solved the battery drain was that I do not just throw the phone on my chair, but lay it on a flat surface, or that due to the holidays the cell reception around my area was worse, and that was the one draining the battery and causing the low reception. if I check now, the cell strength is exactly the same, but in GSam in cell usage I had a lot more Low showing up. after a reset, this seems to have been solved

Interesting, either way at least it is solved for you.
What is your mobile network drain % like in stock battery settings menu before your daily charge?

Why is my idle battery drain so bad if all my wakelocks look fine? (Pie stable)

Getting fine screen on time, but bad standby time. I left my phone idle for more than 10 hours, and everything looks fine...but I'm draining more than 2% per hour doing nothing! When I use the phone normally, idle drain is closer to 3%, with still not specific problem that can be seen. On Oreo stable, it was around 1.5%, which is still bad compared to my iPhone, but not unbearable. I had no SIM installed because it was in my iPhone, but with or without makes no noticeable difference.
Advanced optimization, sleep standby optimization AND adaptive battery also make no noticeable difference in ANY combination on and off.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Edit: You might also notice the VPN icon, it's not a normal VPN (with active, keep-alive connection), but a proxy for those of us living in China. Again, I've tested on or off, no difference, and you can't see it in wakelocks or processes.

I don't understand. This is 11 hours of stats idle, on my table at home, with no one touching it. This is no different from ide overnight on my bedside table except total time. I have gathered overnight stats many times with exactly the same results as what's shown here trying to figure out what's wrong.
Could also be a bad WIFI, seen this before for some 5ghz networks.
Is bbs being optimized in battery settings?
try 2.4ghz wifi if you can (where you have good connection, OR just turn wifi off, so we can rule that out the equation.)
make sure better battery stats is NOT being optimized
and try one more time.

Thanks for those suggestions. I hadn't tried switching to 2.4ghz or un-optimizing better battery stats. Unfortunately, there is no noticeable difference yet again. Turning Wifi off totally used to help a bit in Oreo, but hasn't made any difference at all in Pie.
Having the same issue too. Idle drain is fairly high on pie. Wakelocks are pretty clean too. I'm convinced it's something Google related or it's just the system isn't all that optimized as they want us to believe

Thanks for the reply. That makes me feel a little better. Most people on the internet complaining about Pie drain of course has no idea how to actually check anything beyond Android stock battery stats, so there's no way to corroborate.
I noticed that beta 4 has " * Optimized standby power consumption " listed as a system fix. But I don't want to clean flash in and then clean flash out of beta yet again because all of them have had such horrible touch latency that dozens of users are complaining about. But I'm almost tempted to try it.
Can anyone on beta 4 chime in?

I'm on beta 4, first dirty flash and I had 0.3%/hour
I cleanflashed few days back,no root,locked bootloader. I loose 4% in 7hrs 30 minutes. So it's ok.. with GPS,wifi bluetooth on.
Touch latency is like stable pie.
i flashed the ob4 and wait to see battery consumption how it goes! i did'nt lose any files or settings

Thanks for the feedback! But 0.3% / hour? I'm skeptical. I'm not sure that any Android phone has ever been that low draining, ever. Certainly not in my years of experience. I don't think that's possible even with no apps installed. You can't post any wakelock details because you're not rooted... Maybe post a screenshot of your battery usage graph, please?

Well, I stand corrected. I have no idea what perfect storm of perfect conditions is represented here to get standby drain to near-iOS levels of amazingness, but that's impressive.

Thanks. I feel like I'm being really lucky with this device tho.
I will get my root on today, clean flash again and I will just set it up and see where it lands. But I thought no what saves my battery the most is really good reception. The antenna is around 100meters (300 feet) from my house, WiFi is on point aswell (best on 2.4ghz)
So, like I said the bootloader got unlocked, root is on again so everything is fresh.
The smart battery didn't even have time to read apps that's draining battery this is standby usage with stock settings from OnePlus,without any optimizations. Im counting on adaptive battery that it will do its thing after a day or two.
I have around 20 apps installed but the ones that matter for battery is Telegram, instagram, steam.
