Is this normal?

It was awake that whole time. Get an app like BetterBatteryStats to show wakelocks.

Look at the bars at the bottom. Screen goes on off on off multiple times. Also it was in awake state not sleeping.

No it's not a Lollipop issue. Mine just did 7h screen on time over 2 days without charging. I'd screenshot but it just charged up during the night. Sounds like a wakelock or rogue app issue. Temasek (and other roms too) has Privacy Settings and you can turn off "keep awake" and "wake up" privileges for Google Play Services which will probably fix it completely. Works for me.

Ok, I'm just commenting because I've seen many builds with very average battery that isn't fixed by the usual denying of Google Play Services.

[Q] CM 10.1 Drains battery on HTC Sensation

So...i flashed CM 10.1 from albinoman887 (version 02-19) yesterday...
The battery has been draining and it has been extremely hot (overheating???)
I turned off the wifi, mobile data, the brightness all the way down, but the battery loses about 10% per hour when the screen is off.
I noticed that the phone is really hot in my pocket...
The battery from CM 10 (JB 4.1.2) could last hours with automatic brightness settings and wifi on and it would only use about 10-15% battery...
Is there any way to let the battery last longer???

You can try using BetterBatteryStats to check what is causing the battery drain during screen off. Did you do a full wipe before flashing?
hmm

This is normal. You had something causing a wakelock. The reboot stopped it. It's very common.
Now, if it happens repeatedly, then you'll have to isolate what app or kernel element is causing the wakelock to fix it.
I noticed that some applications turn the GPS on and that is the problem of low battery life that is in my case i disable GPS after that and uninstall that apps.

Battery Eater: Google Services?

I kept my (at 100% when I went to sleep) phone unplugged last night while I slept to see how it does when it's idle. (when I'm working I'm running WiFi tether which obviously sucks battery life so I've not seen how it sits.
6 hours later I woke up to A battery at 71%, which was kind of surprising. I've attached some screen shots.
I run CleanROM 6 with its stock kernel. Would a different kernel help?

Are you on Wi-Fi at home? I've read some people having this issue and they've turned off the Wi-Fi power management feature and it seems to resolve this. Settings--wi-fi--menu key-- advanced should get you to the right menu (I'm on an aosp rom so not sure if it's in the same exact place).
Also an app like Better Battery Stats might provide more specific information about whatever is draining you.

Same place I described. It's the box "Wi-Fi optimization."
Thanks Dearborn! I just changed the setting so hopefully it works! I didn't even know that existed!

I have the same prob since CR6v2 (50% Google Service batt use when relatively idle) and have always had my wifi set to stay on when sleeping (assuming that's the setting you're talking about). It seems clear via GSAM and normal batt stats that Google Services is causing wakelock. GSAM says, "included packages Google Contacts Sync" but I'm not sure if that's conclusive or if it's just providing an example.

Higher battery use on 4.4.1 - here are my battery stats!

Ok. On 4.4 (with linaro version of franco kernel) i could leave wifi on and overnight get 2% battery loss.
Now on 4.4.1 (again with linaro version of franco kernel) i get 5% overnight loss. Nothing else has changed!???
Here are my battery stats...
(i plugged it in just before bed so it'd reset the 'unplugged')

I think betterbatterystats is what causes the battery drain in 4.4.1, i uninstalled it and no problems.
Based on the screenshots (log from BBS would be better as some stats are missing in your post) you've got WiFi on with few applications utilizing it. Like SwiftKey, Facebook and few others. Review your WiFi configuration (you may also need to remove/forget your WiFi network from the phone and configure it again - that seem to fix certain WiFi issues at 4.4.1) and check again.Also try with WiFi off for comparison.
Thanks I've just forgot the wifi and rebooted then re connected, I don't get why SwiftKey is using it? It's a keyboard!?

5% loss overnight is still decent I would take that
mine seems ok
edit. seems the pic has gone wrong. it shows the battery going up a few per cent overnight
I know but it's over the double the 2% i used to get!
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I also feel the battery drain quite a lot faster. About two times faster when idle, and i see quite a lot "awake" caused by the Android System when the screen is off.
@wheilitjohnny
that must be coming from some process. I don't have such issue, it's pretty much the same as it was on 4.4.
I've not changed any apps etc since tho. That's what's annoying

[Q] What is com.android.systemui and why is it gobbling so much battery?

Since flashing Carbon ROM two nights ago, I've been seeing com.android.systemui consistently at or near the top of my battery stats screen (screen shot below). When I was on Cataclysm, I never noticed this. Is this something I should worry about/deal with?

You've only used 3,% of your battery. See what it looks like later in the day. It should be less than 5%. If it isn't then yes, something is not right. Turn location off until you need it. That week save battery.
Sent from my Nexus 5
the % used in the graph is the % used of total battery drain.
you only lost 3% total battery and 49% of that 3% was used by the system.
there is no problem as of now.
Check out lockscreen notifications if you have pocket mode on it keeps the proximity sensor on all the time and will cause a larger than normal drain.

This is very helpful. Thanks -- I'll try disabling lockscreen notifications/pocket mode.
You cannot tell anything from stats after only a few percent of battery drain. Look again after you've burned 90 percent off the battery.

Terrible idle battery drain!

I have a terrible battery drain when my phone is idle. Tried everything, but nothing solved it. Ever since Lollipop I have this issue.
Clean flashed MM and still nop. Flashed ElementalX 6.04 yesterday which still couldn't solve it. This is frustrating :crying::crying:
I have disabled everything too. No Wifi, data, bluetooth, location...etc (My phone is not a smart phone anymore)
Only adaptive brightness is enabled.
Yesterday I fully charged and went to sleep to find out it has drained 28% after a 7 hours sleep. Removed all the unpopular apps (suspicious apps) as well. BetterBatteryStatus says my phone has been in DEEP SLEEP throughout the whole time too.
Please give me a solution

How old is your phone?? You might need to replace the battery. Especially you've already done everything from kernel, to clean flash to disabling apps and settings
your bstats also tells no abnormality? how about its partial wakelocks? can you post those so we can check it out?

According to BBS my phone has been in deep sleep throughout the whole time. I'm assuming its the battery, I need to replace it may be.
I charged my phone again. I will post partial wakelocks too in few hours time.
Thanks alot
Even though it may not make a huge difference but you can try draining the battery out to 0 (until the phone can't stay on even after a force power on) and a full charge (30 mins to an hour overcharging after you see full battery indicator).. Gluck.
I replaced my battery, I was getting hard reboots as well. But wow with a new battery and marshmallow my nexus is like a new device.
99% no or unknown signal.
That could be the cause of your drain, when the phone has no signal or poor signal it will use a lot of battery to keep the connection alive. Set aeroplane mode on
