Just reboot it. This happened to me a couple of times. After reboot it went to sleep like it should.

Turn off aggressive dose. Helps a lot

you mean advanced optimization?

i had some instances with stock kernel where overnight it was awake all the time but battery info or gsam didnt show a thing.
Then there's some times Screen is on for a long period, but it doesnt show the phone cpu awake while so.
Strange stuff Couldnt wrap my head yet around it

Sorry, but I think you are being a bit paranoid here...1% per hour is fine ! This phone does not run on air, it needs battery to stay connected to the GSM network. If you want better results, uninstall all your social media apps and try without them for a night...then go from there.

I'm being paranoid because in my note 8 i lost only 2% Totally..so doesn't that phone stay connected to the GSM network? only this phone connects to the gsm network? and does note 8 run on air? or only this phone? #no_offense #peace

Yes. Actually when advanced optimization is active, the OS takes up battery to close background apps to bare minimum(might not receive notifications). The phone is awake due to OS trying to close apps which are unnecessary. Hope this helps!

I always turn off my device during night, it has the alarm that automatically woke it up so it's very useful to save battery life

That is strange, I would have thought the purpose of that option WAS to save battery?

Regardless of whether you get important calls/messages at night, I don't think the answer to any battery drain issue should ever be "turn your phone off."

I might be stupid but isn't the whole point of the "aggressive doze" option to reduce battery consuption? How can it bear the possibly opposite effect??

Recently I installed greenify along with xposed. I set it up and put some apps for hibernation. As greenify was discovering more apps running in the background, I added them to the hibernation list. At first it did improve the standby drain noticeably. With time(the list of backgroud apps increased), I saw that the phone was getting heated up and was losing much of the battery in a short duration of time. After that I removed greenify and my battery was back to normal(nothing cleared including cache etc). So the idea here is greenify also takes up resources to close background apps. Greenify is a better version of Android's Aggressive dose. I also want to mention that my battery life is certainly better than before(when Aggressive dose was enabled). Does this answer your question?

Makes sense.
I'll see whether the built in aggressive doze can indeed be more problem than solution here then.
So far i havent seen other reports.

it died on me for no apparent reason...

nearly was late for work because my phone died and i was using it as an alarm. what could have drained 50% battery in 6 hours and not show? wifi was off
while the graph is nice, better battery stats is what we need.

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)

Standby drain

When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the Huawei Nexus 6P's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

Exact same results here.
Same, last night went to bed at 32% and woke up with 30%. It's MUCH IMPROVED from previous versions of Android.
Having major issues with Doze, with battery drain of between 15-20% overnight.

I should get my second replacement soon.
Just wanted to show that some users aren't experiencing the same battery life "Doze" is supposed to provide.
Have you turned off Wifi always scanning?
From full charge at 9pm i loose 3% when alarm goes off at 5:30 am
I've lost anywhere between 1%-5% overnight with doze. Not really sure why the difference either. When I look at the battery chart, it's showing very minimal "awakes" each night. Either way, this is much better than prior version of Android where I'd easily lose 7%-10% overnight.
One of my only gripes with doze is that it kills some helpful apps that haven't been updated yet. Timely, I'm talking about you... No more smart rise until there's an update.
I don't know exact numbers (haven't been checking that hardcore) but the battery graph looks damn near flat while my phone and I are "dozing."
Deep Sleep Battery Saver is a really great app to help reduce battery drain. I was struggling with my phone always being awake, even with aggressive doze mode and DSDS helped a lot.
It does require root because you need to make it a system app, though.

The solution for Timely for now is to not have it optimized for battery.

I tried that one night and it didn't smart rise 30 minutes in advance. Alarm only went off at the time set.
I'm getting a 5% drain in 2hrs dozing and apparent exchange services is the culprit any ideas? It survived a factory reset, cache wipe etc..

My guess is that the exchange services are treated as priority (just as with SMS and phone calls) and keep the phone from going into doze mode/continually waking it up.
I'd suggest using a third-party app for Exchange (such as Outlook or Cloudmagic, which is excellent) and remove the other exchange account. Doze will put those apps into hibernation unless you whitelist them in battery optimization. Give that a shot and see if the issue persists. I'm using Outlook and haven't had any frequent wake-up issues. My phone dozes like a baby.

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.

I need those pictures after let's say 6 hours of standby. I need to see standby usage only. So make a custom mark when you go to bed and then take the SS

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?

I'm on beta 4, first dirty flash and I had 0.3%/hour
I cleanflashed few days back,no root,locked bootloader. I loose 4% in 7hrs 30 minutes. So it's ok.. with GPS,wifi bluetooth on.
Touch latency is like stable pie.

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.

Discussion - Adaptive Battery

Purpose of this thread is to discuss how adaptive battery works, how long it takes in terms of data collection by the algorithm to get the best results and most of all, I'd like to discuss our findings with it off and on in terms of idle drain and overall battery longevity.
How can we get a definitive answer on how this is supposed to work?
Also posted 4 poll options to see what is working best for some of us.
There has been several on-going discussions on other relative threads such as https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-3-xl/help/pixel-3xl-ram-management-problem-t3855914 & https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-3-xl/how-to/battery-drain-t3856149 but figured we consolidate.
Ill go first.
Idle drain is drastically greater with adaptive battery on.
SOT on average is 45 minutes less with adaptive battery on.
I was able to get "more" out of my battery with adaptive battery off.

How long have you had the phone? Supposedly, the benefits of adaptive battery kick in after the phone recognizes your usage patterns.

i got the phone last Wednesday, I want you to be right, but it just doesn't seem like the algorithmic AI learning is adapting fast enough...
Also my OCD isn't allowing me to tolerate it like that day after day until it decides to get it's act right.
Found this
https://stackoverflow.com/questions...tery-and-what-does-it-mean-for-app-developers
I still don't see why having adaptive battery on would get worse battery than having it off. It should get me the same battery life as having it off, only until the AI learns my usage better which by then it should extend the longevity of my battery
Left adaptive battery on.
Overnight loss is 11%
Look at the awake screen off time.
5 min phone call. Little WhatsApp and Facebook use.
With adaptive battery off I had 1.5 hour phone call 1 hour WhatsApp video call. Nearly 6 hrs sot, 3% overnight loss

Not sure but that's what I do for the best battery life. I don't turn off adaptive and just restrict apps I know have caused issues in the past for me. See the attached screen for where the battery restrict for each app is found.

Edit. You have to restrict the apps you want one by one. I don't think you can do it in multiples.

Not sure what Google is trying to achieve with this.
Aggressive doze was so much better

Hello, would you link me this app please?
Sorry for the OT.
EDIT: Oh another thing.
Guys you're forgetting about the core.
Settings > System > Developer options > scroll to the bottom > Standby apps.
That is what really matters
Go play with the different buckets

I wonder would these settings be saved to your gmail profile ? as in if i need to go back to stock or flash all would I have to re-set these up?

Google App Causing severe battery drain??

Anyone else seeing this? My Google App is causing severe battery drain. It's been off the charger for 3 hours, sot is 1:52 and battery is at 85%. Google is accounting for 17.4% of drain and only active for 6 minutes and background for 12h7m. I have it set to sleep when not in use. I was watching youtube this morning for 14 minutes and it only accounted for 1.3% drain.
Yesterday it accounted for 20.3% drain and only active for 6m and background 13h 21 m. Day before that 11.5% with active 7m and background 8h 14m.
This is weird. Coming from a Pixel 4XL and didn't see this much battery drain with so little use.

Haven't noticed that on the Note 20 Ultra but on my LG V60 it was about as bad as that. I have installed Nap Time by Francisco Franco which puts the phone into a deeper doze. It's a root app but can be used without root with a few adb commands. It's one of the first apps I install on all my phones.

Has it been doing that since you got it? How long have you had it? Because usually Google is saving a lot of your stuff and creating backups in the background but you can deny background activity by going into the app and ticking the slider over to deny background activity but that might preven automatic backups and saves.

I've had it a week and a half and it's been doing that since day one when I look at history. It takes as much as 25% on some days. I cleared the cache today and hoping that may help.
It's dropped 4% since I posted and I haven't used the phone at all. That's in about 20 minutes.

That's not normal.. is there any updates to that specific app or able to tap uninstall on it to roll it back to a possible previous version?
Edit: this is the screen I'm talking about to stop background activity.
I guess it's still not showing the pictures that are being uploaded.. I'm going to talk to the owner.
I'll try rolling back any updates, but I do see when I do a general internet search that other people have had the problem with Android 10 and Samsung devices. Most have fixed it by disabling the app. But that's not an option I want to take. LOL
I've cleared cache and rebooted. I'll see if I still see a large battery drain. If so, I'll uninstall and reinstall and see if that fixes it.

By the way, do you have a ton of apps and pictures and all kinds of stuff on the phone? Because if you do the carrier's don't give very fast upload speeds and if it's trying to save a ton of data it's definitely going to take quite a while on carrier data.. I'd use a business or someone's wifi if possible so it can do it quickly.

Never tried naptime is it any good?
I have package pro and killallapps installed so would i be able to use naptime along with these?
Also is it just one click does it or do you have to do your own apps to deep sleep
Thanks

I have a lot of apps disabled and yes you can still use it, don't know anything about kilallapps though. If I charge my phone to 100% before going to bed and lay it on the table until morning in 10 hours it won't lose 5%. depending on what apps you have installed may not be quite the same. And yes it puts the phone into a deep sleep. You can have it turn bluetooth, wifi and others off while in doze
