Hi, I've got my g watch r for a few days now, and I get very inconsistent battery life.
For example yesterday I've had 2,5%/h, today I've got 11%/h... With no settings changed... Just switched it to theater mode over night on the charger.
I've always on, with a very minimal watch face. No tilt to wake. Not very much notifications and no heavy usage....
What can I do to analyse the battery usage? I have wear battery stats, but that doesn't give very detailed information...

Update your AW app on phone then restart your watch at the begining, then observe your battery life.

I had the most recent version of Android Wear already installed, I restarted the watch now, let's see.

Have you this version: 1.1.1.1889093? I had that same problem like you and update solved my problem.
Yes I do, but to what should I update? This is the most recent version?
After the restart it seems better.
Yes it is the newest version.
Hmm, go into the Android Wear and under setting click your watch and then battery usage. For me the battery usage is really bad since the last updates, hopefully android wear 5.1 will fix it (hmm i think we will get it in 5weeks or so, because google hates us).
I noticed that when charged using laptop the charge went down little quickly than when charged with wall charger.

Can't say that I agree here. Maybe because I'm running fOmey's awesome rom, but the last thing I'm thinking of is how "bad" the batt life is.

Easily get 2 days. You'll see plenty of others around here reporting similar. Even with stock. Battery life increased with more recent versions of firmware and especially gear manager. And last longer with motion setting disabled
Are you using custom faces with watch styler or one of the stock faces? I think WS eats more battery but I find the many faces worth it. I plug in my phone every night so I have no issues with charging the watch

watchstyler - especially if using second hand drains battery
Yeah, can easily get two days, and the watch charges extremely fast so that isnt an issue for me

people are complaining about gear's battery life and tells us about how great 'pebble' is. truth is, it sucks balls. either you are getting a smartwatch (gear) or a watch with smart extensions (pebble).
i don't see an issue with the gear's battery life, as the things i can do on it out beats any other "smart"watch.
The problem is most of the"professional" reviewers have probably only used it for a few hours and then only when it first came out, it's a shame they aren't more diligent.

That's a fair question. No, I'm not using any custom faces.
I am completely stock and on newest firmware. I must say battery life is awesome for me. Using stock watch face with weather and could easily get 3 days out of my gear. Although I charge every night I am only draining about 40% from 330 am to 930 pm. Very very happy with this.

My device is not very old. It's about 1 year now and battery isn't as good as it used to be. When I got it after school I had minimum 50% no matter what I've been doing and atm it's 24% which is disturbing.

Check for battery health in 7378423 to see if it had any wear out in battery capacity. Mine is 31460 (1+ year, when buy it is 32000, Sony is always add more to make the battery last longer )
And check for any apps that run out of battery, malware too (There are some Android malware which mine Bitcoin/Litecoin and make phone hot and run out of battery)
Also check your kernel setting or reflash ROM if nessesary.......
Mine is 1,5-2 day battery life with typical behavior.......
Well, my battery says 31440 when at 86% of charge. I haven't got many wake locks in betterbatterystats either so I'm not sure what could be the cause. I'm on stock kernel. Thanks for the heads up on that mining malware. I had no idea it went over to mobile devices. My phone actually gets a bit hot after some regular usage, but nothing out of ordinary I guess. I did lots of mods to the stock rom on my own so I'm not that keen on reflashing. I'd rather find out what could be the cause of that poor battery life and fix it by myself.
Any other suggestions and things to try?
You can reinstall your Firmware, and see if the battery life would be better. And my Wakelocks have i solved with the App DS Battery Saver.
Strangely enogh my battery was at 2880 after only 140 charge cycles.
Then by accidient it deep discharged (problems with not charging, hard reset etc. until it was fully 100% dead) and now is back at 3130 with only the first charge cycle counted as 1.
Not the case here since your's has a good number, but I wanted to add this information.
Hey guys, so recently my 2 month old gear live has been having crazy battery drain for no reason. It's connected to a note 4 with no problems. What doesn't make sense is that by 9:45 it has lost 43% of the battery in maybe 2 and a half hours... I downloaded the android wear battery manager app, so I'll add screen shots below.

Did you find any help. I'm experiencing the same thing and Sanding is no help at all. I've send it in twice and both times they returned it saying no problem.

Nope, I still haven't gotten anything to work. I was just about to sent it to Samsung in hopes that it will work... It's almost useless to even wear anymore because it dies in 4 hours...
Hope you find help, and if you do PLEASE let me know!!!!

Your screenshot say that you have activity with map app. It is a cause of hard drain battery.

Same problem here since yesterday. Took it of charger this morning and within 2 hours I had 75% left. Did reset and battery after reset was 49% ?? Battery stat app doesn't show any app activity. Very weird.
Hey guys, my Moto X used to be able to get OK battery,but since the 7.5 update, I lose 15-20% over a five hour period, which is quite disappointing. any fixes?

All of a sudden for me too, GPS is now eating up to 15% of my battery and the Android OS is at 11%... I noticed this this morning. The only thing I installed last night was Greenify...
Quite similar to what I have. Android system and Android os always on top

This is new for me. I normally have pretty crap battery life but services and OS are normally never this high. The battery on my phone is so hit or miss. It 's behavior seriously changes daily. I don't get it.

By the way, it got me to 8.30pm yesterday before I had to charge. As bad and inconsistent the battery is, at the very least I can say it gets me to dinner without too much babying. I'm just concerned when it drains much quicker than usual which means I can't use it as much for it to survive.
I just want to say that the Motorola had an incredible battery life!
I am on my third day using this phone and i have about 50% left with almost 6 hours SOT! Coming from an iPhone 13 Pro Max, this is awesome battery life
P.S. ik What the spikes are in the graph, but i didnt charge the phone whatsoever!
What battery performance do you guys get?

As a Motorola users for a long time, this is pretty normal actually. Motorola phones have excellent battery life - way better than iPhones. Iphone users are just over exaggerating that they have good battery. Add to the fact that most of them haven't used a flagship Android device or if they once did, it would most likely be a Samsung.

Auto my dear. If you live with wifi and 4G on, you will never understand those numbers. Start with these first

This is from last night and this morning. Brightness is in between 10 - 30%.

ok thank you
Hi, how much SOT Can do Moto on mobile data? Thanks for rep.
Bluetooth and 4g all the time
from what i see battery life is good on wifi, when using mobile data it's not so good anymore, someone uses two sim cards and only mobile data and could show their battery stats
I got additional 2 hours of battery life when I disabled 5G, excellent.
Personally my phone's battery is so bad. I mean it lasts long enough but it just suddenly turn off at 20 or 18 or so. Other times it acts normally. Sometimes when I charge it, the battery percentage would stay at 100 for hours, then it starts going down and at 40 the phone dies
8hs aprox
