I updated 48 hours ago.
Horrible battery.
I used to charge about twice in 3 days.
Usually my battery lasts a day and half.
Now It does not last more than 10 hours.
I had 50% left when I sleep and 5% when I wake up.
Bluetooth took 36% batter. Usually my screen use to eat battery.
Will see few more charge cycle before I go back to 4.1
This is not a review, just a complaint. Search, read and find that others have had similar issues post upgrade and how they addressed their issue.

Where do you find 4.1? My phone came with 4.2.2
Sent from my LG-D801 using Tapatalk
I meant 4.2.2
That's odd. First charge screen was on for 6.5 hours. second 7 hours. Kit Kat seems fine to me
My first charge on 4.2.2 was about 18 hours
I just got my G2 a few days ago and updated it to kit kat via LG pc suite. So far I have no problems it, fast and smooth.

For anyone that's having battery issues, try uninstalling Facebook and disabling Google now. Watch you WakeLocks for a day and see if its properly deep sleeping now.

For the past couple of days my battery has been draining at an unbelievable rate. I've been using the same rebel rom for a while and this is a new issue to me. Does anyone have ideas of what I can do to fix this? I can hardly last a single day on one charge when before I could last almost two.
Here are some screenshots.

Same thing happened to my friend, turning off LTE fixed it.
I used to get24 hrs total time and 5 hours screen time. Now I'm averaging 8 hours total and 2.5 hours screen time. No crazy wake locks or anything. Started happening after flashing cleanrom 4.5 and all the different radios. May go to stock ruu reunlock and install 4.5 again see if it helps.

So........ what should I do ????
Learn to deal with it (keep charger on you/extra battery) or go back to an older version of Android. If you put your device in Airplane mode it will go to sleep but then you can't send/receive calls/texts of course.

Hello there,
I noticed that my battery really doesn't last long. It's been 100% full and now, 4 1/2 hours later, there are only 6% left. The weird thing about that is that I did not really used it during that time. WLAN has been turned on over that time, display was really dark, no backlight notifications or anything. Has anyone any idea how to fix this? (LG P940)

can you give more info
can you give more info? info like- which android, how many mah (ex: 2000,1000). give that and i may be able to help you,...
Would be really awesome! Android version is 4.2.2, battery has about 1500mah (think it's 1540) and I'm using the cyanogenmod kernel. Do you need any more information?

Thats not really much of a battery for the hardware,.. how old is it? Is this a recent problem, and when did you flash to CyanogenMod ?
To me it sounds like something is draining the battery pretty hard. Is the Wi-fi signal stable? Any processes under Apps>All, using excessive memory?
To me it sounds like you are having wifi/gps/bluetooth on all time, and if not, you should close ALL apps next time. Some running apps on your background could even drown your battery from 100% to 0% in less than 2 hours. Big apps or games cause the most trouble
Greetings,

If this phone/battery is more than one and half year old, this could be just battery dying, like mine (LG P920, 2 years old, 1500mAh) is dying right now.
It can't last more than 6 hours lately, so i bought a new one.
A li-ion battery (standard models) just can handle frome 300 to 500 charging cycles, thus if tou charge your phone every day, battery life has about 18 months lifetime.
After, it just dies, more or less slowly.
Thank you all so far.
Bought the phone 1/2 year ago so this can't really be the problem. The battery has never been great but got worse about a month ago. I flashed it about 2 weeks ago and this didn't seem to influence the battery.
I always keep GPS and Bluetooth turned off (only turning GPS on when I go running, but I never noticed that this influences the battery either) and Wi-fi is pretty stable. As I heard that Wi-fi is really bad for the battery I tried turning it off as much as possible and so far it seems a bit better.
I also took a look at how much memory the apps use and saw that Facebook, Kingsoft Office and Whatsapp really need a lot. I think I will uninstall Facebook and KS Office then and see if this helps.

I presume you bought it new ("and sealed")?
Maps used to be a big problem for me running in the background. See which apps use Maps.
Yep, I got it completely new.
Okay, I'll check that, thanks.

Also problem with battery
I had a similar problem, my battery got "sick" after I used my phone as a GPS during 2 or 3 days. the phone was quit warm during the navigation. After that The battery life was reduced from around a day to 9-10 hours. In addition when battery is around 20%, the phone just shut down due low-battery and as soon I turn it on, as soon it turns off!
The solution was to buy a new battery, but that is odd that using the phone as GPS navigator damages the battery so badly!
Btw, my phone is a HTC desire w/ Android 4.2
yah now i may be able to help you, download the antutu battery saver app from google (it requires root) it is a really good app and helped he last
my battery from 3 hrs to 7 1/2 hrs. if you don't have root access, then it is a prob. if you don't have, tell me and i will give you another solution which
does not require root
Thanks man, I just installed it, will write tomorrow how useful this App is.

Hi, think im about 2 weeks into my ownership of my N5, and over tha last few days ive noticed that the battery seems to drain far quicker now than previously. For example, my phone was 100% when I unplugged it at 8am this morning, and at 12: you can see the drain with very light use. I notice android is using a lot? Is this normal?
Any tips etc?
Thanks
i also have this problem, since 4.4.1 update Android OS is draining a lot

I have a new "winner" in the battery drain category - this morning, I looked at mine & "Exchange Service" is now #2 on the list when I tap on the Battery.
Can I say, let's see what 4.4.3 is going to bring in terms of fixes & breaking more ...
Well, whatever it was, a factory reset resolved It! Been running sweet since i reset the old girl.
I've been having issues for a week now with Android Os/Kernel killing my battery. Just figured out in my case, it was having the "Enable Battery Stats" module in Xposed. Been running it for a few hours and everything but this Damn Audiomix wakelock seems good

Hi, I recently bought the Samsung gear 2 and everywhere I see it says 2-3 days battery life but mine only gets around 8 or 9 hours if I completely leave it alone for the day. Am I missing something here? is there some setting or something? Im starting to think it has a defective battery. Its already at 90% after only being unplugged for 1 hour. Also, no apps will install from the market?!? Any help would be cool, thanks everyone.
Sounds faulty to me. Mine lasts 3-4 days with reasonable use.

I see other people talking about apps not installing on the device either so that may be a bug from Samsung, but the battery life is HORRIBLE. If no one has a potential solution I might have to return it to amazon...

I just received mine Monday afternoon. Charged it to full overnight and ran it through its paces yesterday. Turned on the sleep monitor before getting into bed. When I woke up this morning, it was at 72% remaining. I could probably go 3 days without charge without incident.

I had the same troubles when I tried to upgrade gear manager to the latest one ( failing as I have an Xperia z1 phone), while restoring the previous working one, a few services were still the latest ( I did not uninstalled them before reinstall the older). Watch battery life was crap.
I then uninstalled all gear apk on the phone and cleanly reinstalled gear manager 03... ( the one working for us with no samsung phone), my watch got reset and voilà ! Battery life of 2-3 days is back... I suspect one service was constantly pulling info from the watch but I don't know which one

Could you link me to that gear manager by chance?
I went to bed at 100% when I turned on the sleep monitor. Woke up after a 9 hour sleep and my Gear 2 was at 82%. I'm on the latest firmware and using an LG G2 phone.
I'm on the latest version and getting 3-5 days depending on use. If I use it a fair amount I will drop about 25% at the end of a full day. I have a GS5 though, maybe it's related to the phone its synced to?
I used mine for 3 days with about a combined 100 text and emails per day and on the 3rd night it was at 20%. I'm very happy with the battery life on mine.

That's the manager in every non samsung thread (gear...1_2)
Well, I no longer think its the watch that's the problem.... I shut off its Bluetooth and disconnected from my note 2 and after 8 hrs I only lost 10 percent battery...WTH is the deal here.. Anyone have any fixes for that issue? I couldn't find the gear manager everyone is talking about either.

If you have the correct version of gear manager from the apps store installed I'd say it's an issue with 4.3 on the note2. The official 4.4.2 was just release on SamMobile which is the version the S5 is running so that may fix your problem mate.
