Terrible deep sleep? - Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE

Anyone else having terrible deep sleep with this phone? I was fully charged and I unplugged it to see how it would sleep because my battery has been dying pretty fast lately and I lost 50% over 6 hours. BBS and kernel tuner says my phone was in deep sleep the entire time too.
Current widget says my phone is only dropping to about 150ma a min while sleeping. It should be 1-5.

Sounds exactly like what mine does.

Battery drains faster when phone is idle?

I really dont get this, i killed all running tasks before i went to sleep, fully charged, but when i wokeup the battery is at critical level already. Wifi is turned off. This happened for 2 straight nights now. In the morning the batt drains normally. Help anyone? Whats causing this?

Mine would do that when I left WiFi and WiFi Calling on. Maybe try turning sync off. I know that putting the phone in Airplane mode will save the battery from draining. Might only drop 3-5% overnight.

[Q] Using 4% of battery an hour in deep sleep

So for the past 2-3 weeks my Infuse's battery has gone down (not gone down TO) 20-40% by the time I wake up in the morning if it's at 100% when I go to sleep. I use CPUSpy to see what state it was in and it appears to have been in deep sleep. So what's my Infuse's problem? This just started in the last few weeks, it used to use 1% of battery every few hours in deep sleep.
It's running infusion kernel but I'm pretty sure it was fine running that before this was noticed.

Check battery stats in Settings->About Phone->Battery use, and if anything looks weird there, check wakelock stats using the app BetterBatteryStats from XDA (not a Market app)

Cell standby is 40%, display 24, idle 20(that seems odd...), wifi is 11% but i have that off when I'm sleeping, and the rest are below 5%.
Don't know if I'm doing this right but wakelocks:
LocationFriendService 7h9m37s count: 2512 16.8% (says this is google maps..)
NetworkLocation Check Location (what the hell, I have network location off...) 4h 6m 33s count: 8432 9.6%
WifiService 2h 46m 59s count:13402 6.5%
The rest are one percent or less and there are few. So what's going on with the location services I don't have activated?
Also, I forgot to mention my key backlight has a seizure when it's off, every once in a while it'll go on and off 10 times in a second.
Edit: I restarted my phone, charged it to 100%, froze Gmaps, and it appears to be doing alright.

[Q] deep idle removed?

i wonder why deep idle is removed in every updated kernel...anyone has the answer...?i think deep idle is one good tweak in saving battery while we close our eyes sleeping..
Because some say it didn't work.. I dont know, because I didnt know what it did before it was removed

is it?i think its work for me...without it, my battery drain quickly like 20 to 30% while in idle mode...i hv to recharge it back after i wake up in the morning...i think one of the problem is the ics 4.0.3 right...bcoz in ics 4.0.1 deep idle seems to be working fine and my battery last 20 hours with it..

Deep idle did Not conserve battery while the phone is inactive - it only reduces power consumption while the screen is off and the phone is playing music, etc.
Have you ever actually read about the function and purpose of deep idle? CpuIdle seems to have replaced it.

Ok, for one deep sleep is where phone should be when it is not used.
I always wanted to ask: whatever happened to this crazy idea of charging the phone when it is on some desk in the house for a few hours?
I am fairly certain you will find your phone is awake when you sleep, doing stuff it shouldn't be doing.
When it is just laying on the desk, a drain of 5-10% /hour means it is not in deep sleep, something on rom or apps is broken. deep idle would not fix that, deep idle may however help mask the real problem that keeps the phone from reaching deep sleep.
deep idle, the way you use it is like buying a can of flat fix for the car tire but leaving the object that still sticks out 2" beyond your tread in the tire, causing continued damage to the tire, it gets you by, but won't last forever and the guy who really fixes your flat will not smile at you once he sees the sticky inside of your wheel.

Battery reduces 20% in standby overnight, is this normal?

My phone was reduced from 100 to 82 in just around 6 hours. I had data/wifi turned off as well. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Nope. With data/wifi turned on (data auto-off since Wifi is active), I lose at most 2% overnight. With airplane mode on OR data/wifi off, you should be seeing practically 0% loss.
Check your battery usage and see what's eating up the battery. Sounds like an rogue app/process that's wasting cycles or is out of control.
One of the best things about this phone is its standby life, as it seems to sip battery juice very lightly.
My battery was still 100% after I woke up today.
Nevertheless it dropped very quickly after using the phone, about 11% in 10-15 min but I assume that's completely normal after 8 hours standby.
I have a live wallpaper but it shouldn't work when is screen off. I also have setcpu set so that is practically doing nothing when the screen is off. The live wallpaper cost only 2% of my battery but standby showed 20%. I have no idea why it uses much in standby...

That means that of the whatever % battery (out of 100%) that you've used, 20% of that drain was due to standby. That's not necessarily bad. So if you have 50% charge left, then it means that (50% x .2)% of your drain was from standby. My cell standby has currently used 23% of my current drain percentage. Since your phone is often left in the sleep/not-active state, then a large % of battery drain happens in standby.
Battery usage on Android is frequently misunderstood. And keep in mind that the 2% from the LWP you used is because it's only displayed when you're on the home screen. Otherwise, it remains dormant/paused.
that's strange that you are having that much usage in standby.. i have been getting a solid day and a half out of my battery and it doesnt really use any battery in standby.. there has to be an app of some sort that is sucking the battery or still running.. i always at bedtime though clear the cache thru storage in the settings menu and end all tasks in the task manager and close all the windows/programs with the far right virtual button on the bottom of the screen.. I am a bit OCD but heck if its working why stop..lol
Area with poor cell reception? If you were in plane mode it is an app for sure.

My battery stayed the same overnight. That is with a x2 battery saver which switches off data when the phone is not used and only allows it as special intervals. I have set at 10mins intervals though which is not a huge saver.
I'm doing a test from yesterday to see how long the phone will last with my use. So far from last night im at 39% and when I first turned the phone on it was at 47% from yesterday.

I would have to agree with everyone else. I only experience 1% loss at most times overnight. Best standby battery life i've ever gotten on a HTC phone.
I actually have full bars at home so I don't think that's why. Maybe it's because it's a new battery so I'll try charging it a couple more cycles.
Lost 8% tonight (86/78). Saw this morning that the signal was not perfect. But wifi went off during the night. That should not happen. Maybe my custom rom is switching off wifi on sleep...

It's either a faulty battery or a rogue app. Shouldn't happen to a new battery either.

Use better battery stats to diagnose rogue apps.

Right.
Battery lasted up to 2:30pm being off the plug from 7 am the previous morning. So a total of 31hours.
That is with tapatalk, a bit of web browsing, a bit of WiFi and google store updating, 2 short phone calls.
The app. 2x was running on mild battery saving,mainly by cutting the data periodically when the phone is idling.
I must say that this is really good and the phone took quite a while to go from 15% to 4% after which it switched off before I noticed it again.

Betterbattertstats, are all of these awakes expected?

Battery droped 1% from a full charge over 8hrs but Im wondering of all of these awake stats are pretty normal ? I also used before taking the stock andriod battery stats but BBS was done when I got up.
Why are you even looking at wakelocks when your battery only drained 1% over 8 hours? Do you use your phone at all BTW?

I thought it was already pretty obvious it was left unused overnight while sleeping but I guess not. My bad.
Irregardless of the drain, id like to know if these wake locks are expected.. a few of them have high wake times but never show any blue markers on andriod stats.
I would give it a little more normal run time and then recheck the wakelocks
