I haven't had any battery issues on Lollipop, in fact it has been better for me than Kit Kat. But the first thing I did after the upgrade was to backup my phone, copy the backup to my OTG stick (the computer would also work) then factory reset. One this was done and I setup my phone I copied the backup back to my phone and restored. After about 5 days to allow the phone to settle, I got 36 hours on a charge with 6+ hours of SOT.

Im experiencing a huge problem with battery...
First the battery drain is too big to be real 100 to 0 for like an hour of browsing...
What is more is that when the battery gets like 30% the phone sometimes just shuts down like and acts like the battery is fully drained and the only way to turn it back on is to connect it to a charger first and when i turn it on its on 0% battery.
I'm running all stock, no rom, not even unlocked, I sideloaded both 5.0.0 and 5.0.1 updates.
Here is some screenshots, could it be a bad 5.0.1 update?
Have you done a factory reset yet?
What happens if you charge it when its off?
Welcome to the club
It charges normaly, just like I have let the battery die to 0%. Other then that it charges preeeetty fast ... Too much if im not overreacting
Haven't done factory reset....thats the reason for not flashing it, didnt want to lose data..

Well, it could be hardware but best thing to do is rule out.software so best bet would be to factory reset after backing up your data. Maybe even flash back to stock.

I would flash full 5.0.1 if a factory reset doesnt work. If its still the same, then try 4.4.4.

The reason behind not flashing already etc etc is that i dont wanna lose my warranty. That leaves me with factory reset and nothing else for solving it? Should I just copy all my storage to PC or should I use some application for the backup?

Where did you buy it?
Backup with something like carbon and yes, copy your sdcard to pc if you need to keep it.

You'd need to reset the flag then afterwards. Its all covered in the flashing stock guide in general > sticky roll-up. Not saying you should do it, just letting you know. Though after you factory reset i would recommend you probably just contact the company and let them fix it.
I guess I will have to unlock, root and flash my Nexus to see if this will help.
Can u advise me with a stable and low battery drain ROM and Kernel eventually ? I'll need to seach a full guide on unlocking rooting flashing I guess
If it's new, go and get a replacement. If it's not you may change your battery. It does not look like a wakelock or another issue. It looks like a hardware issue much more.
Actually, I do have the same problem as OP. I'm thinking of going back to 4.4.4.
Facebook app is draining a lot, Disable Service and disable the fitness services within Google Play Service, and disable unneeded syncs.

I had the same problem with mine, I used the nexus root toolkit to get back to 4.4.4 and it fixed my battery issue completely, I'm now at 23hours with 36 percent left. On 5.0 it lasted about 8 hours if I didn't use it, good luck.
Flashed Cyanogenmod 11 latest for hammerhead, problem persist... I'll do some more testing and If I cant get it right I guess I will send it back for repair after reseting the flag...
If anybody has any ideas or same problem, share info
I'm having the exact same problem...
I updated to 5.0 when the OTA was sent out OTA but then sideloaded 5.0.1 two weeks ago.
Since then I've been experiencing the same shut downs where the phone thinks the battery is dead. If I leave the phone off for a minute or two, restart it and then leave it for a few hours, the battery level slowly increases back up to what it actually is.
I'm guessing it's a software issue but I'm losing patience waiting for 5.1 to cure it.
I'm now thinking of downgrading back to 4.4.4 till 5.2 comes out. Very frustrating!
What voltage is actually at when this happens? You guys should track voltagr at full charge, and empty when this happens.
The new baseband / modem firmware from lollipop caused massive drains for me. You may want to flash 4.4 baseband.
So is it me or did the volume decrease with lollipop?
On KitKat i somehow got the feeling that the overall sound volume is much higher, especially while listening to music over the speakers.
Also my batterie life got really worse with lollipop, but i wont judge now since the OTA came in two days ago.
Still, somehow i miss KitKat already and find myself looking for a downgrade. I'm on the Z3.
I would be glad, if you tell me your thoughts on that one.
I just clean flashed 5.0.2 and got a device which has way better batteries now than after an OTA update. Try that.
After clean flashing, my battery life has increased soooooooo much it's insane I actually don't understand how it.can be so good

I've been on stock rom now (updated using pc companion on the same day lollipop came to our devices). My battery life gives me max 4 hours of screen on time with moderate usage.
So my question is, did you just do a simply factory reset through the settings menu or did you flash it as a rom?
I'm just curious as I've lately noticed that by the time my phone goes from 100% to 85% I do only have 35minutes of screen on time. On my lg g2 I could go from 100% to 90% and have 1 hour screen on time...
Guess I should have done a factory reset long time ago... I'm about to root my phone and flash cm12.1 anyway, but wanted to get someone who clean flashed incase I want to go back in future.
@Sindroid Hi my fellow Bergenser. I'm also from Bergen but stuck in Sweden, my wife is Swedish (got caught in the Swedish trap.) How did you clean flash after the OTA? just a standars factory reset? did you wipe the internal storage too? e.g camera pictures and media etc?

No, a factory wipe won´t do justice. That will just wipe your phone clean and the OS will remain the same.
I am talking about Flashing a stock FTF.
You need D6603_23.1.A.0.690_Customized_NCB.ftf
And you need Flashtool to flash it..
Back up what you can that is internally on your phone. IF you have File Commander you just use that to move all stuff from Internal to SD.. Your SD Card will remain unharmed during flashing process but you could remove it during flashing to be on the safe side.

I downloaded the OTA, made it a flashable zip, wiped thru custom recovery then flashed.

How did you manage to have that screen on time? Are there any tips you can provide us, please?
I noticed a weaker battery life directly after upgrade (by ftf without wiping data) but it went back to normal a couple of days later... I guess just patience is needed.

Yes, but have you seen @shakerist screen on time? 12h is too much! I wanna know his secret!
Yeah, noted that...
Never paid too much attention on screen time. I get about 1 1/2 days with normal business use (mostly phone, mail and web) which is pretty good.

Can you provide us what tweaks/apps/modules/configs you are using? Because I've checked many Z3 users and none of them can replicate this on-time screen. We get usually between 5-7h on-time screen with 24h+ battery usage.

Hey all
I have a Sprint Galaxy S 6 that I just updated with an update that claimed to be to improve "battery drain".
It is losing 13% in a half hour without using the phone.
I have no apps running.
I go to settings and it seems that Google Play services is always the one that uses most of the battery.
I never got great battery life but this update seemed to make it worse.
Am I missing something big???
Any advise would be appreciated.

Probably your phone won't go into deepsleep. This is caused by wakelocks and alarms. You can fix this by rooting your phone and install powernap or factory resetting your phone & start all over again.

I would rather not root my phone... I did it with my last three phones and was more trouble than it was worth for me. The phone has all of the features that I like and I don't have a need to flash ROMS.
Any other suggestions?

In that case factory reset your phone, this will delete all of your apps and data so also the wakelocks and alarms. From then your phone will go into deepsleep and you won't lose so much juice when you don't use the phone
Hi, I'm also having battery life issues. I've factory formatted from recovery menu, but I still get battery issues. I charge my phone about 3 times a day and I don't have any significant drain according to the battery usage settings.

The same here. I have everything okay according to battery stats. But I lose like 5-8% an hour when screen doesn't work. Don't know what to do.
I basically surf the net and use WhatsApp. By early afternoon, I'm down to 60% battery. I unplug my charger at 6am everyday.

My wife has an s7 which I updated to the latest version 6.0.1 with sep. 1st security update, but the battery started draining super fast after that and the phone gets hot.
Is there a fix for this? I've tried resetting the phone. I would even go back to the previous version if I knew how.
I seem to have the same issue
My battery life and signal have been horrible! Constantly losing 4G ... when I lose it, my signal bars show as being full but can't make or receive calls. Been needing to reboot about 3 times a day in order to get signal - even after a factory reset ?

Some devices drain much more than others, which kind of sucks to be honest. I've heard people get amazing battery life however, I'm on your same boat my S7 is a lemon and it drains very fast. The only temporary solution I've found is to flash the U firmware, change the CPU governer to conservative and to install ampifly, greenify, and power nap and then activate the modules using Xposed.
Doing this gets rid of the drain we usually experience while our devices are idling, so the only battery drain we experience are from apps we are using while the device's screen is on.
Man, can't believe it! Since CyanogenMod is out of the mix and LineageOS doesn't support the this particular T-Mobile version of the GS7... It appears we have to resort to these measures.

Well I mean they would most likely add support if we had unlocked bootloaders in the first place... It's not their fault.

Hi all.....I have an AT&T Note 8 and the other day it did the software update (3BRB2) for the Feb security update.Since then, my battery won't even get me through the day with light use!
I am a heavy user for my job, and have always been able to get thru the day with no problem. Now I am lucky when I get to the afternoon!
Has anyone else who recently did the security update had this issue?
Thanks
I did search but found nothing directly related to this particular update..........LOL.
Hmm. Haven't noticed but I will keep an eye on it. I am also a heavy user for work so I will notice immediately. Today I worked from home so its been hooked up to a charger all day.

Me too on AT&T February update, me too with Note 8 but I don't see any battery loss o faster discharge. Try to reboot or restart your Note if that doesn't work then Factory Reset but that's is the last option you know that's work time after factory to configure as it's was. No matter what but every time I Factory Reset my formers phones configuration again is a fact, the back up and in a zip everything is back don't work for me.
