Battery saving apps - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

There are plenty of apps which supposedly save battery life majorly by real-time optimizations. The most popular seems to be Battery Doctor and Clean Master which also have very high ratings on Google Play. Does anybody use them? What's your experience on their battery impact? Do they really make any difference?

All I use is Greenify. It's an awesome app and a ton of people swear by it.

Honestly battery apps make it worse. Greenify is the exception.

Post 2, 3 and 4 sums it up. ?

I'm always running out of battery. I went dead in the first few hours today and then I used my Chromecast to watch the interview and was at 50% when I started. Screen off entire time 17% at the end. Now 15. Idk what to do about this drain. I've gotten lucky once with 4 hours screen on time though

Not sure why you'd expect good battery whilst casting. Its a massive battery drain, using wireless to send data. Especially large chunks over prolonged periods.

I'm not convinced that's accurate, but even if you're right, there is a constant connection between Chromecast and your device, with wakelocks and large data usage.

Yes, sorry you're right. I've read up how Chromecast works and it is different to others, as you say.
It actually doesn't make sense that it would cause drain.
As for 3.5 hours screen, that's not abnormal.

Run your phone until it's had a good run (80% battery used or something) and post as many gsam and android battery stats as possible in that thread. Use
tags so people dont have to load all pictures unless they want to. Make sure you go into teh battery graph in andoid and screenshot that and also into the big offenders, like screen so they can see how long things have ben running

Chromecast does not stream data from the phone unless its local media. If you want to see for yourself, stream a netflix movie and turn off your phone once it starts playing.

Guys Im coming from a stock lollipop rom on my Nexus 5 and Im looking for a STABLE rom on my nexus 5 that provides much better battery life without performance sacrifice.. Any suggestions..??

what you didnt post is the page with what was using your battery by %. now how are we supposed to tell you what happened and what used your battery? this thread is pointless because you gave us no usable information. what i got from the info that you did post is that a UFO flew by you and drained your battery of its power. and the thing is, my guess will be just as good as any other guess.

stock alarm app, no. but you do have a lot of wakelocks. when the screen is shown off, your device should be asleep. your device shows a lot of activity when your screens off(ironically, not when the supposed battery drain happened though, so i cant say thats why it drained).
Do you have the horrid camera bug?
Do you use exchange at all? I've had a lot of phones (android mostly htc and iphones) hit bugs from exchange in push mode and burn through their battery really quickly constantly trying to sync and hitting an error.
I charge mine on my dresser next to my head, and also use it as an alarm, I'd recommend charging it over night

I'm guessing this http://www.androidcentral.com/googl...cpu-usage-bug-fix-coming-next-android-release
I found it by googling "Nexus 5 horrid camera bug" lol, first link
Stock apps have no such issue as till date.Except for apps that use internet /wifi consume a lot of battery. So switch of those frst or keep ur cell on flight mode. The battery consumption may be due to gplay service, account sync,gmaps etc. I don't own a nexus device but I have experienced this kind of behaviour with my phone sometimes with a hot back cover sometimes.Try using apps like greenify to control this prob(or switch of ur network @ night/use lower cpu values + governers like powersave/conservative)

battery draining fast

I noticed battery draining fast since I installed gravity box. Without even touching the phone in the morning it will go down to 99%
I attached the screenshot of wakelock detector from this morning. an hour commute with just listening to music dropped 15%
You need to be a bit clearer with your reports about 'drain'
Are you reporting 1% battery drop as a 'drain' definitely due to gravitybox?
Are you using a custom rom with a feature conflicting with gravitybox?
Can you uninstall gravitybox and immediately confirm the drain goes away?
Your 15% drop, were you streaming via 3G on your hour commute? If so that sounds reasonable as it works harder to keep the signal
Try betterbatterystats as well to look at other wakelocks

I am on lte but half of my commute i have no signal from being on a train. but usually my phone lasts a day or at least 12 hours now i am only getting 6 hours.
I will try better battery stats and then post a screenshot before uninstall gravity body
I have the same problem. I Ajay lost 3%in one minute after using this for 4 minutes. Something not right with that gravity box. I'll be lucky to get 2.5 hours of screen time compared to my 3.5 I used to get.

Gravity box won't drain your battery.
Not having a signal on the train will tho....big time. Unless you switched to airplane mode? Anytime the phone has to look for a signal, the battery takes a real beating.

rooting does not necessarily mean you will have better or wore battery. Try changing the kernel, stock kernel gives you 3-3.5 hrs SOT normal usage.(unless you use it to read books)
I had 0% drain overnight when i first bough the phone, but after a while 1-3% drain overnight is normal.

There was some problem with old version of KitKat. Google Now constantly was accessing location services and draining the battery like hell. I don't know if it got fixed or not.
Try turning off location and use phone normally.

Different kernels behave differently for everyone's device and usage. You need to experiment yourself.
But before you do, work out what is using your battery first, electricity doesn't just disappear, tends to obey the laws of physics...
Then determine if it's definitely gravity box, or if you're experiencing phone 'usage' as opposed to battery 'drain'
Leave wakelock detector and betterbatterystats for collecting data for much longer. Put your phone down for a while...

Are you performing soft restarts? If so, that's probably the reason. For some reason, Android doesn't take well to soft restarts, so when you soft reset it never initializes properly and you end up with strange things like excessive battery drainage.

Interesting...I've been having erratic drain patterns lately with no visible culprits. I've noticed it happens sometimes after updating gravity box and I always do a soft reboot, so that might explain it. Do you have any more information about it?
Sent from my Nexus 5
I only did 1 softboot.
I think the culprit is google music it drains the battery like crazy. I tried not listening to music on my commute and got to work with 98% battery. With google music I will get to work with 90%

soft reboots do fine on android. your "never initializes properly" is inaccurate and just plain wrong.

To be honest this looks like phone usage, rather than particularly bad battery 'drain'. Are you expecting that your battery should be 98% if you listen to music while on the move for an hour? Or what would a reasonable expected level be?
Your first post said that an hour commute dropped 15%, now it's dropping 10%? Sounds like an improvement to me.

Battery is very weird ?

Hey guys. I recently went back to 25r in an attempt to get better battery. And I am. What's strange is that in the first 50% I'll get 3hours soc. But I'm now on 18% with 4hours and 10 mins. Seems kinda strange. Not using the phone any differently. I do have a Google play services drain but its only 14% and I don't think its doing that much harm
Any one else?

Posts like this don't really help as we need to see what wakelocks are going on with your phone as well as the number of times its waking up your device.
The whole post-50% is a coincidence.
It's completely normal for you to have a 'faster' drain on the lower 50% of your battery life. But what Zephik said is right, it's impossible to say what's happening on your device without you providing some accompanying analytical data.

Im quiet happy with my battery, get about 3 hours soc until 50% and then i get home from work, so its not a massive issue for me. What i find weird is the 49%-1%
Drain a hell of a lot faster, not really an explanation as to why it does that?
Hoping the 38r update that comes out next sunday makes it even better though

Install a app such as GSam / Wakelock Detector / BetterBatteryStats, on your next battery cycle running one of the 3 apps listed, post up screenshots of the listings so we can further discuss this. Or you can take a look at them yourself if you know what to look for.
You'd be looking for partial wakelocks / wake ups

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.
and kernel wakelocks?

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?

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?

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.

Battery Drain Question

HI guys.. Before I buy the note 20 ultra I want to make sure battery drain isn't crazy. If you would please turn off bluetooth, wifi and data and only leave mobile phone on, how much battery would you drain in 12 hours? Would appreciate this feedback.
Consider a new N10+ N975U1 running on Android 10 for $800, or half that price used.
Overall a better, more dependable flapship; better form factor and display (less variable refresh rate).
Android 11 is problematic and 12 is fubar.
The N10+ running on 9 or 10 is a very functional, long lived and fun to use device. Snappy fast with 10hr SOT when optimized.

Smh.. dont do drugs guys
My SD variant NOTE20U has been doing pretty well. Even with instant messaging apps always running in the background, and BT earphones connected and data enabled, only ~2% of battery was consumed sleeping overnight. If those were turned off, maybe 1%?
I installed an app that can monitor real-time power draw. With some debloat and optimization, the screen on standby power draw is around 80mA of current, with some spikes to ~150mA, which is very good.

My SD variant NOTE20U has been doing pretty well. Even with instant messaging apps always running in the background, and BT earphones connected and data enabled, only ~2% of battery was consumed sleeping overnight. If those were turned off, maybe 1%?
I installed an app that can monitor real-time power draw. With some debloat and optimization, the screen on standby power draw is around 80mA of current, with some spikes to ~150mA, which is very good.

Not bad, 5G enabled, 120Hz RR, AOD off, enhanced processing speed enabled, instant messaging apps always running, and it gives me around 22hrs of total use time, ~7 hrs of SOT, ~14 hours of standby. Mainly watching videos, shopping apps, playing a few 3D games, and browsing social media.

What's the monitoring app you're using?
Hi...
With everything which You stated "ON" ( Bluetooth connected to the watch, WiFi connected, location "ON", 5G "ON" ) its draining through the night 9-10 hr about 3 % from the battery...
Hopefully that answer will help a little bit...

Kinda confused by your statement. The user terpi74 above you said he experiences only 3% of drain per nite.

My bad, I forgot they don't use the name Scene on their GitHub page. The latest release is 4.7.3. After the installation, look for a little plug icon in the Scene app, located in the bottom left corner. And that "-XXXmA" is your current draw.
