Nexus 5 terrible idle time (19 hr, 65 percent) - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have low LTE signal in the area but Wifi on. Would this be able to drain all my battery overnight by just idling?

drain all your battery just overnight or (your title) go down to 65% after 19hours ?

Install BetterBatteryStats and let it monitor the usage for you. Then post the results.

OK
It sounds like a wakelock....
Get wakelock detector (or BBS)

you just installed it ?
if so you need to wait the next time it happens.
most of time it will be in the "Partial Wakelocks" (BBS) or "CPU wakelock" (Wakelocks detector)
(root may be necessary)

I've had it for a while. I haven't seen any weird wakelocks under partial, have'nt checked CPU. I'm used to troubleshooting, but this time it's just weird :\

Somethings hogging your mobile data in the background. Check your mobile data stats. IF you can, try disabling Google+ and see if it makes a difference.

38R - ~30 battery drain back

Hey all. I'm stock, but I flashed 38R yesterday morning. All day yesterday i was getting great 6-8 idle drain and had about 4 hours screen on time through about 45% battery, but today I'm back to around 30 idle drain. Literally nothing changed between yesterday and today.
The culprit seems to be Android System. This morning, my wifi connection displayed as NULL (wife's Nexus 5 stayed connected just fine), but I was able to get that connected properly again. Could this NULL wifi connection have something to do with the drain?
Any ideas on why this may have reverted to the 33r drain? Like I said, there is literally nothing different with the phone other than a reboot this morning.
Have you tried ART?

You need to investigate exactly what is draining your battery by using BetterBatteryStats or something like that.

That isn't going to help if an app or service is causing a wakelock.

How easy is it for the average user to use bbs? They can always use greenfiy donate version, that can show you services/apps constantly running?

Do you have your brightness cranked all the way up? That'll drain your battery pretty quickly. Looking at your stats that's the only thing I can think of since your screen is using so much battery.

Android system wakelocks 5.1

Anyone having android system draining more than 20% if their battery? I've read a few posts with other people having it and my last option is to downgrade to 5.0.1 because look at the screenshot, this is non stop 24/7.
Wakelock detector is useless. Doesn't find anything out if the ordinary.
try betterbatterystats app to determine exactly what is causing the wakelock

I was/am having the same issue. Any chance you're using any smart locks? Once I disabled it got a lot better.

Nope no smart locks.
It happens only from 100% to around 60% after reboot it goes away. But it happens every day consistently.

I think you better disable Google app and use it on your browser! And it might be that app which monitors your wakelocks as well. Uninstall it.
Btw: Mods will move it to the correct section (q&a).

I have only just put the app on in the morning to check, and I have disabled google and it is still going down quick in standby - even with removing the app :/
You'll get more help if you cared to post on the proper section (Q and A), not accessories.
Yeh, I thought mods were gonna move it as I accidentally did it wrong. I posted it in q and a but got nothing

What????!

What are these wakelocks?

I am experiencing some screen off battery drain issues and these are my results from BetterBatteryStats. I have been told that the PowerManager wakelocks are just the sum of the partial wakelocks. But the times are absolutely off so I don't think it's true for my case.
Thanks for any help.

Go into the setting and set as charged instead boot. It's more accurate.

Alright, thank you, will do. I managed to fix all my battery drain issues yesterday, so I'm currently writing an extensive guide on what I did to fix everything with my OnePlus 6 so no more people will have to struggle. lol.
