So I've had this problem for a long time on the battery stats screen since I started using the stock GPE ROM and it is completely inaccurate. See the screens attached. There is no way that nearly 4 an a half hours of screen on time only used 7% of the battery. Sometimes the screen on time doesn't even show up in the list because apparently it is so small...
Nothing broken here.
Yes, 4 hours of running the LCD backlight could drain as little as 7% of the battery's capacity.
Your battery life *itself* could be improved (it looks sadly typical of 4.4.2 with location services left on all default settings), but the battery history display is right. Good luck.

4hrs SOT on a ONE should push the screen to the top of the statistics. Never observed such behaviour on any other kitkat phone.
EDIT:
Forgot to add that my battery life is good. It is not a battery issue.
I just sideloaded 5.1 and I use Battery widget pro.
After 5.1 when I unplug my device this widget tells me I have 8 hours of battery left.
Even on 5.0 my battery seemed pretty poor but at least it would be at 12 to 14. I just don't get how it can be that bad.
Sometimes after turning it off then back on the battery level will adjust to something higher.
Is this possibly an app issue draining my battery? Anyone have any tips suggestions?
Best,
Ryan

Let it run for a day and see how much battery life you actually get. Maybe let it drain all the way out once and recharge it to 100%. I know when I ran custom ROMs on my Nexus devices, it would take a couple of days before the battery stats adjusted and displayed correct info. I once had a battery meter say 1% for about an hour before my phone died after switching to a new ROM.
How did it go? I noticed massive battery draining wakelocks on 5.1, related to phone and location. Without Xposed I don't know how to control them.
Cheers!
So my battery has been draining at an alarming rate lately, up to 20% an hour, even with the screen off. The only new app I've installed lately (besides BBS once the issue started) was the leaked Google Nexus Launcher a week or two ago. Has anyone else who installed it seen a change in their battery life? Or perhaps some other app that got updated recently and has been killing their battery too?
In settings - battery you can see what's draining the battery.
I'm wondering if anyone else is having a problem with Google being the highest battery user since the update?
UPDATE- Since removing myself from Google Beta my battery drain is back to normal.
Yes, same issue.
Same here, this is significant
Wtf is going on, went to bed 100% wake up to 70%

I'm removing myself from the Google Beta program to see if that helps.
Same here. Big change.
Same here. Big change.
I hope Google fixes this soon.
Seems to drain an extra 20-30%
When I was at 80-70% I'm now at 50%.
Nothing crazy here. High usage in terms of time but not battery percentage.

Yup me too. dropping 20-30% overnight
Came here to add that I'm in the same boat. Significant battery drain when my phone is idle.
Guess the December feature drop also contained a battery drain "feature"
Google, perpetually in Beta.

same. overnight drain is ~15%, exacerbating the already ****ty battery.

I flashed the factory image and that fixed it for me. I'm now losing 2 to 3% overnight.
After removing myself from the Google Beta program and reverting back to the normal Google app my battery life went back to what it was prior to my OP. As of today the same issue is back with Google being the highest user running for over 8 hours. I'm at below 50% when my typical day off from work use, would have me in the high 70's/low 80's.

How are you set up, ambient display, etc.? Did you do a restore after flashing or set up as new?

Ambient EQ, motion sense and smooth display are all off and I always set up as new.
Same issue, except the December update fixed it for me. I'd fall asleep with 90% charge and wake up with 30% left. It was like the Pixel 4 came with Android 4.
After the December update, my "adaptive battery" stuff seems to have started working. I've gone from 1 day 10hr standby time to 2 day 15hr (and still slowly climbing)
Pulled phone off charger at 100% last night and woke up at 97%

What did you do for that battery life?

how much signal are you getting? also if it's not too much of a hassle for you, can you list your apps?
Anybody else notice battery life drops fairly quick when using earbuds?? I notice like a 15% or more drop after maybe an hour. On A12 I could go all night at the diamond drill and still have 40% after a 12 hour shift but there's no chance of that on A13, I'm on the latest LOS but I found it was more or less the same on stock rom too. Maybe it's just an Android 13 thing
