Ever since I upgraded my Note 4 to Marshmallow, the SOT sucks. The Standby time is very good, it only drains battery faster than lollipop when it is in use. Even with that issue, I still don't want to downgrade to Lollipop because the UI is more fluid, more responsive and since I upgraded, I have not experienced hang on my Note. I already have the best tools for extending battery (Greenify, PowerNap and Amplify) and already debloated my ROM. Any suggestions how to extend the SOT on MM or can anyone explains why?
What's the SOT you are getting?

Seems like you are not using network always because your screenshot is in airplane mode.
Nevermind, found the culprit that is draining my battery when I'm connected to a network. The wifi scanning and the bluetooth scanning on location settings.

Kitkat - Lolipop - Cyogenmod.
Which one has the best battery time for you?
- My vote is for Kitkat (23.0.A.2.93)
People who vote for "OTHER", please explain about your choice.
I've had much better battery life on KitKat. Up to 3 days with Stamina mode on. With Lollipop if I avoid using the phone too often battery lasts for 2 days max.

thank you for your reply.
Having great battery life on .62 HK lollipop firmware. Also amazing sound quality unlike the other lollipop builds :|

Haven't used it a lot on Kitkat (I forced the update a few days after getting it), but I'm having great battery life on Lollipop (.28).
Two and a half days of moderate use (Data and/or Wifi always on, Autosync, no Stamina, GPS most of the time...) with almost 5 hours of SOT.
Which lolipop firmware is getting good battery life? Because i heard that lolipop battery life was bad?
In Lollipop, it helps to disable Sony's "background data queueing" in Power management.
23.1.A.1.28 & 23.2.A.1.62
which one has a better battery life?

Dude, I'm sorry, but nobody will be able to answer a question like that simply because it depends on what you do with the phone.
Unless one of the fw doesn't have a known bug or unless you do the exact same things on both firmwares (same duration of calls, same amount of sms sent, same amount of music listened to, same amount of background data, same apps installed, etc) you will never know for sure...
Hello all, I am assuming other people have had this issue, but are there any roms out there that fix the battery life between the KitKat and Lollipop updates? My battery was amazing at first, I could come off battery in the am, and still be at 95% around noon to 1pm, but now it drains about 20% faster it seems (wild guess, but I very much do not like it.)
Let me know if anyone has come across a rom that has the awesome battery as KitKat had, otherwise I might just try and go back to that.
Thanks!
I'm currently finding myself in the same situation as you. I've been on 5.0.1 for a while, but my battery life has been pretty bad. I just haven't bothered to do anything about it until my son got a Moto G and can get 5.5-6 hours of SOT, and I'm struggling to get 2.5 lately.
I installed CM 12.1 nightly last night, and so far, it may actually be worse. I can't keep it anyways due to music playback bugs.
I was on TEKXodus N4 URv3.6R3 prior to switching. Like the ROM (as much as one can like a TW ROM), but didn't deliver battery life.
I actually came here tonight to read up on the KK downgrade routine and find a KK ROM and start that.

Well that is unfortunately not what I was hoping to hear, but it may just be worth downgrading. I do like the aesthetics and such, especially of 5.1.1 which I have on my Nexus 4, but I much prefer usability and battery that kitkat provided.
I'm sure I'm not alone in saying it's possible to get just as good battery life on LP as KK. I think you need to look at your setup, wakelocks, rogue apps, too many notifications or apps that constantly sync over the internet etc. Example: I lose 2% battery over night (8 hours).

Fwiw, I reverted to ank4 based FireKat and my battery life is back to great. 4 hours sot + 8 hours of music via slacker and/or Google.
People say you can good battery life on LP but I never could. I went through guide after guide, and none of it ever did anything for me. I'm also not going to cripple my phone for the sake of battery. I'd still like it to work.
Seems like many have received the 6.0.1 update on android one devices as well. Has it improved the battery life compared to the drain issues on 6.0 or is it the same.
a little better, but ... flash thunderzap kernel or cody`s ..and you`ll get around 320-25 for a full charge ..
It's Worse
The battery life reduced drastically after i upgraded to 6.0.1. Especially the screen off time.

Its consuming more juice than lollipop. Was awesome on kitkat
Not great
A1 battery backup is bad
As you all know with the Nougat update the battery life has become terrible for most of the users. So I'm making this thread so that we could list ROMs that still give that original battery life before the Nougat update. Both Marshmallow and Nougat ROMs are welcome. GO!

Already discussed here
Stock oos (beta also) and Franco kernel
My battery life with oos non beta was better with flash kernel instead of franco kernel, device also felt faster.
Im currently on LOS (Tugapower) and battery life is decent as well.
But from what i heard so far it seems that CM13 was best for battery, but i have no personal experience with that on OPO3T
OOS ROM + blu spark kernel

Agreed.
I finally found a rom+kernel combo that works the best for me. FreedomOS-CE-2.8 + blu spark 3.18.31-blu_spark-OOS (r112)

CM13 user for almost 5 months. Have hit 14 hours SOT before on a single charge. Have never gotten less than 10 hours SOT and average almost 12.

My batterylife is great, 5-6 hours SOT and 24 hrs. off the charger. BTW the best roms for stellar battery life are the ones that have no user installed apps, disable auto-sync, screen brightness set on 10% and only use wifi connections But then why would you buy a smartphone?

Do you have gapps installed and are you on 3g/4G or just WIFI ?
who's going call this terrible battery life in nugget?
that's beta6+franko23 with 4g all the time
I get nothing similar to these results. I've got freedom OS latest beta 6 and bluspark 125 and I can barely get 5 hours of SOT even with brightness really low and only on WiFi
Stock OOS 4.1.3 with franco kernel.
2 hours SOT
22 hours up time
61% remaining
4g only, no Wifi
I am using 3 uk 4g I live in London
I got the same problem , one plus 3t tried all ROMs all kernels , I bought franko kernel app from market and ex kernel , so I got the pro version, I can't get more then 3 hours I don't know if is my device or my battery, I tried a tutorial to disable all Google sync's and Google now and more services , I don't know what to try , I think the battery is not equal made from this Chinese company,
My nexus 6 is non rooted latest firmware 7.1.1 latest security patch I got 3.20 hours screen on time, so I am wondering where is that power efficiency of Snapdragon 821 processor?
Next time I will not buy anymore that (flagship ) device
Also super big screen burn
For £120 I can get Moto g plus dual SIM with Snapdragon 625 super power efficiency I can get 6 hours screen on time , also dual SIM .
Flagship killer

I'm on 3 in the UK also and can easily get 5-6hours SOT. Sounds like therea something wrong with your phone.

Perhaps LineAge from sultanxda is a good choice. I heard, that it has great battery life. Still testing, seems good.
It seems that battery life is inconsistent. Maybe they were shipping with different battery units, different brand, factory or something? For ma total max is 5h SoT in 20-24h.
Sultan FTW!!!!
Are people noticing any improvement or worsening?
It's been a lot better for me
Battery life for me is ok, with the official installed for the last 4 days. I'm upto 6 hrs sot on my usage and intend to leave it on charge overnight to complete any optimisations that may have not been done.
The call screen number flashing bug is still there though, but no other issues for me as yet.
i dont know guys... its lottery? i went down from 7h SOT to 2h... i did full wipe ect... i heard a lot of people that said it its better for them with battery and a lot of people saying its even worse than oreo

I'm having about the same batt life as I had with Oreo, but I've upgraded to Pie 2 days ago, so I'm hoping it will get better in about a week when the OS settles down and I'm done with setting it up. I've always had the idea that after a major OS upgrade, it keeps doing a lot of things in the background, making it use more battery than expected. For iOS this is even verified by Apple, but I don't know about Android.
Im used pie for about 2 weeks now.
For me, battery usage for idle is better, im got better standby time than oreo, but once im start using it, it drop faster than oreo. Phone also feel little more hot than on oreo.
Im got battery leakage last 2 days and then i realised that putting video wallpaper on lockscreen eat the battery alive even screen is turn off.. Its just still played in background.
Im got constant 6 and half hour of SOT on pie and 7 hour SOT on oreo (from 100 to 20%) of my battery. I
Im not heavy user, just used chrome and facebook only. No games.
So far, phone is more responsive on pie but never been lack on oreo.
However, im monitor my battery charge capacity with Aida64, im got 3139 mAh on pie and 3220-3298 on oreo. Its seems its limit to 3139 only now for my phone.
By the way, im used Note8 with exynos processor.
Pretty much the same as on Oreo on my N950N running Pie.
Note 8 battery much better with pie...... Verizon
I was expecting the same like for years new update new battery drain. This is the best a battery has ever done. I use my phone alot I have stopped background data for the battery hungry apps. With device care. I set it to see a week at a time. I only done this with Facebook and messenger and chrome. Even before it's been great for me I hope that all of you get better battery life. I know it's hard to do things when you have tug battery charger.
Pie is a joke don't update you will thank me
oreo it's a lot better, but i use custom kernel on pie, "phantom kernel" and my battery life it's a lot better even better than oreo with stock kernel.
Not bad.
Some people here hating on pie, more power to you, but I've only had one minor bug with the sound "popping" in the "My Noise" app, turning off Wifi during use fixes it. Also, all the benefits such as Good Lock, Bixby Routines and dark mode more than make up for the one minor bug I have. FWIW I am on Sprint and Snapdragon model.
Curious. Considering updating soon. Need help manuals. OTA keeps saying "processing failed"
