I received my new lg g watch r yesterday and so far as much as I'd like to use it it won't last long at all off the charger. Got it at 30% and it up out of the box. Whilst trying to charge the watch it was losing charge whilst on the cradle.
It was at 90 percent this morning and within less than 30 minutes it was at 32 percent.
I've factory reset the watch and factory reset the nexus 5 it's paired to and both running stock up to date software but still horrific battery drain. It's draining faster then the charger can charge it?
Any help would be greatly appreciated as I don't want to return this shock peace of kit
Sounds like you need a replacement - if both devices are totally stock, and it can't even provide enough power to charge, there might be an electrical short within the watch.
Yeah thats not right, yesterday i took off charge at 7am 100% screen on all day, lots of fiddling, it died at 1.20 am. so 18 hours use. Sounds like you have a duff battery.
I used to have bad battery life. I would get about 12 hours with my device. When I got it, I played heavily with it, and ended up enabling bluetooth debugging. I didn't think much of it, but later when trying to solve my battery issues, I disabled bluetooth debugging and now I get about 2.5-3 days of battery life! Before discovering this, I tried switching to digital watch faces, no weather, steps, etc on watch faces, but that barely affected battery life. The bluetooth debugging though, if I enable that again, the watch dies in 12 hours again. It's a huge difference for me, not sure how bad it is for others, but be aware that this can impact battery life quite dramatically.
Im not sure if im correct but i guess you have let it at least 4-6 hours for the 1st charge (by this you increase battery life ) so my opinion is to call lg and exchange it because the lg gives 1,5 days of battery life

Same here. I use it with my iPhone and it dies within 6-7 hours. I tried all optimal solution such as switch off always on, mute notification, reduce brightness, switch off google now, etc. Nothing works.
However, when I unpair the watch from my phone, the charge lasts for more than 24 hours. So what's the use of smart watch when am not able to pair it with my phone?
My iphone on the other hand stays solid. No noticeable battery drain when i connect my watch.
Suggestion please.
Hey there, so recently I got a Note8 since my mom switched to a Galaxy Note20 Ultra and she gave me her old phone since I had a J3 before. She had it for 2 years and now when it was given to me I found some extreme battery draining issues, I watched MrWhoseTheBoss' video and in 1 hour the Note8 drained to 91% however in 1 hour MY Note8 drains to about 60%-40%. Also when I'm not using it the battery drops like I'm playing Asphalt 8. Any solution to this? I checked battery usage and nothing is out of the ordinary. The highest usage is Instagram at 2-hour drops 20% but I only use it at night and this battery problem is during the day. For most of the school, I keep it in my pocket and only use to listen to music. The battery still drops extremely fast. My friend has an S8 and his battery is much better than mine.
All I need to know is if this is a software issue, or a hardware issue as the battery sometimes runs out and I boot it up to 15% or something close to that.
If it's a software issue please help me down in the comments, I have turned off location, limited CPU speed to 70%, and disabled background usage.
Thanks.

It sounds to me that you need a battery replacement.

This is normal in my opinion. Even if the battery was only a year old, I'd say that is normal without proper power management.
My note8 is the same and the owners they had it before me, i don't know how much they played games with it, but how much i know about tech my note8 have never changed that battery and never was open back cower and the battery is still good up to two days average use, but i don't use apps like twitter, Facebook, Instagram or any social apps, only Viber that's all, the twitter, Facebook, or other thing i check on web-browser and that why battery should bee good.
The apps i mention up, i consider them partly spyware, battery-mongers, personal data movement mongers.
Btw, make a screenshot of your phone screen,\battery usage after the battery has drain to about 20% so we can see if we can have any conclusion to it, and pres this code (*#21*#) and call in keypad, make screenshot to see if someone is lurking on that phone on background.

As I'm using Oppo Find X3 Pro which is better than premium devices when compared, devices that have more Mah battery tend to fail in power management. But Find X3 pro has great battery life. Check the link for further information.

The Oppo Find X3 Pro goes through our battery test where we measure the actual battery life and charging times...

Thanks For sharing information.
Screen on time on average around 7h/day. For me it depends on the apps I'm using, battery is draining faster during filming/editing but still very stable / no quick jumps but equal to usage.
My normal usage with 5h SOT: Phone unplugged at 7.00 AM, around 15% left at 10 PM.

Global
24-30h, 4-5 SOT
Just you to know, I never charge this thing at night. 20 minutes during my breakfast and going on using it all day and next night (not disturb). 5-6h SOT also with gaming and video streaming. I am super satisfied with battery management and especially with charging times.
The battery life isn't quite on par with the P40 or P30 Pro I had previously, but it's totally fine, and definitely not a reason to avoid this phone. I would say around 80-90% as good battery life.
Imho better than the Samsung s10 I had, that was pretty average.
I do run my screen at 60hz but otherwise use all the normal features like Bluetooth connected to a watch all day, camera plenty, music streaming, navigation, WiFi hot-spot etc. Screen timeout is 1min.
Using coloros 12 basically since I got the phone so can't tell you what 11 was like in comparison.
I came to this phone from a long line of Sony flagships, this is FAR superior battery life and agreeing with others in that I feel it's the power management over MaH. I am off work at the mo with a broken back so the phone is getting hammered, main usage is camera (I have 4 young kids and use the camera an awful lot as well as viewing photo's and videos), then Chrome & messaging, watching movies, casting screen to TV. WiFi, BT, NFC, mobile data always on, brightness always 100% except when in bed. Since being off work I no longer charge overnight as it charges so quick, I just plug it in when making dinner or getting a shower. I very rarely have to top it up. Very happy with the battery life.

Can you share a list what did you remove with ADB - what is safe to remove. Thank you
I don't see any apk making significant drain on battery. You can check it yourself in battery stats.
What drains battery is screen on and network coverage and there is not much you can do there anyway.
People claiming that they improved battery usage after removing 50% of apps is just placebo.

Yeah it's just nonsense. You can even see they drain 0% before they are removed so pointless doing it
Battery drain issues over the last few days can be related to the storms we've been seeing.
Networks will be running a reduced power "safe mode" incase of power surges.
It may make your phone work a little bit harder to maintain a signal.
increíble. Sólo wifi.
Todo encendido excepto 5G
Segunda captura 4 horas en modo de espera y aun al 100 %
Solo parada micro G
I am moderate user, 5-6 hrs SOT with Youtube, Netflix, Messaging and Social Media apps and easily drops to 4-5 hrs SOT when I play power-hungry games. I find the battery usage is more or less the same with my previous phone, a Huawei Mate 20 Pro.
Considering Find X3 Pro has more powerful and power-hungry SD888, 120Hz screen, and a bump only 300mah more than my Huawei, I thought it's pretty good. The charging is way better than Huawei, faster and less heat. I usually charge my phone in the morning around 15 mins to 80% (I usually charge my phones to 80% unless I want to test for something.. and once or twice a month i full charged my phone to 100%)
Hi, there!
Anyone here having some issues with their Pixel 5?
I bought a second hand Pixel 5 here in the Philippines, everything is okay except for the thermals. When it would do video calls via wifi, it would normally reach around 40 deg celcius same case with games with heavy draining. And then, the draining overnight is super exaggerated. I would normally lose around 10% to 15% of the battery.
I tried installed accubattery and it showed that the battery health is at 95% percent so I'm clueless of what's happening.
If I would install a custom kernel like CleanSlate, will it help fix the issue or should I just look for a battery replacement?
P.S No idea yet on how to install custom shts and all but I just want to hear your thoughts.
