Question Pixel 7 Battery Drain in Phone Idle - Google Pixel 7

I've been noticing huge battery drain on my Pixel 7 after the March update. No particular apps are draining the battery, phone idle alone does it.
I thought after the June update, it will make the battery backup better but I think it made it even worse. Last night I charged my phone to 100% and slept by turning off WiFi and mobile data. I even kept my network type to 3G to avoid background activities from 4G. And waking up after 5-6 hrs of sleep, I found my battery to be 89%. Screenshot is attached below. This is very disappointing. I bought this phone on February. It has not been a year and this is the performance I get from a flagship?
Clearly, this is not normal. Phone Idle draining 78%(of the 11% actual battery drain) of my phone's battery is crazy. I used to get 2 days of battery backup before that March update. And now I can hardly survive 16hrs. Please help me with a fix.
Notes:
Country: Bangladesh
I use dual SIM. 1 physical and 1 e-SIM.

Factory reset, then be careful what you install.

You didn't use anything on the device though. The phone is idling more than doing any other task. So of course 78% of that small amount of battery drain is going to be due to the idle because idling is what is doing 78% of the time. I really don't see any issue here. I mean you only lost 11% battery over 4 hours and that first 15% drains quicker because lithium ion battery drain isn't linear. That first 10% always goes faster than the rest of the device. If it really bothers you, I would suggest changing the doze parameters to wear it disables the sensors on the device until it's unlocked.

Also, I just noticed that you have no mobile data on either SIM card. The phone is looking for a signal constantly and not getting it, that alone will drain battery, not to mention using dual sims has been known to affect battery life as well. Is the phone in airplane mode in that picture?

You aren't alone. I've been fighting the same issue with the battery drain since March. Up until the June update my excessive battery drain was showing as "Mobile network" but now it shows as "Phone idle". Strangely it drains the most when not in use. I've already done a factory reset and ended up with the exact same issue instantly.

It may be worth trying to disable the "adaptive connectivity" setting and see if that helps. I live in a weak 5g area and my phone was constantly switching between LTE and 5g causing signal drops and battery drain for me. I turned it off and it helped with both issues.
Settings, network & internet, scroll down to the bottom.

Tried almost everything except this one. I noticed this option was enabled on my phone. Turned it off today. Let's see how it goes. Thanks for suggestion!

Not in airplane mode. I turned off Data then why would it constantly look for signal?

I guess I should have asked first, I wasn't sure if you turned data off or not, I guess that's what led to the airplane mode. What about in developer options? Is mobile data always active still set to true?

Anyone with this issue my best suggestion would be use some kind of doze optimization mod. I know nap time is kind of outdated but some things still work correctly. I believe all of it does except for the GMS does magisk module. If you scroll all the way down to the bottom there's a setting that says wait for unlock. That keeps the phone in deep doze mode until you unlock the device, which also keeps the sensors turned off as well. Another option is diamond John's app Temefi. In the search box, type in doze, and you'll see a place where you can choose from several different Doze profiles. For this you need root, but if you're not rooted I would stick with nap time which just needs some ADB commands entered

i think it's a bug, i have no drain but look at the screenshot
"telefono inattivo" is phone idle, same percent but 1hr and more compared to yours, strange, indeed i've no drain
i always keep data, wifi and bluetooth on, since i work in a place where there's no 100% coverage of wifi, and bluetooth for smartwatch connection

have you tried safe mode?

[Q] Can someone explain how forgetting wifi networks improves battery?

Sorry if this is a stupid question. But i read somewhere that forgetting (deleting) wifi networks would help battery. For me, this actually worked. Im not a power user so my phone will be idle for hours at a time. Coming from an iphone (i know its not a fair comparison cuz iphone is more lightweight), i would lose ~5% during 9.5 hours of work if i never took it out of my pocket. On the gnote3, i sometimes get 15%-20% drain even with a screen time of ~30min. But after forgetting the wifi networks, drain is reduced to 5%-10% within that 10 hours im working. So can anyone explain why after a few weeks, my battery will start to drain quicker again until i forget my 2 wifi networks (work and home)? As a disclaimer, that 5% on the iphone is when i literally didn't take the phone out of my pocket at all. I am playing with my gnote3 more than the iphone (the newness still hasn't worn off for me yet), but i wanted to throw the iphone stats in as a reference.

Well I'm not certain if it actually works this way or not. But here's a theory..... If you have a bunch of stored wifi access points and aren't connected to any, the phone might be looking for those connections? But isn't it looking for wifi anyway? Maybe if you don't have stored access points it doesn't look so often? That's my theory on this situation that I've never heard before but anything is possible because it's the internet!!! The easier fix to this without deleting your wifi access points is to disable wifi all together. You can even add a shortcut to your homescreen!
If you really want to get to the bottom of this and find out what was happening I would install Wakelock Detector. Even when you're not using your phone because it's locked in your pocket, rogue apps or processes can wake your cpu. This app will tell you what's waking your device and draining the battery. If your device is rooted I HIGHly recommend getting Greenify. You can choose to hibernate apps directly from the wakelock detector app. Now how cool is that!!
I like what ^he said. Only if your WiFi is constantly on but not connected it will constantly be scanning which will impact battery. If its connected but a weak signal this will also impact battery life poorly, same as constantly connecting and disconnecting. I leave all my WiFi on all the time at home and over 10 hours of non use only drop 2% or less. However in your WiFi setting there is a setting that has an option to disable WiFi when asleep. If your always pulling your phone out to play with it and have this option enabled then every time you turn your phone on it will scan for a network. And turn back off when you turn the screen off. I am not a fan of this option and for better battery life leave your WiFi on all the time UNLESS you don't have a network to connect to. If you're connected leave it on, if not turn it off. I recommend to set it up like this.

I've got the same setup as you! It seems to work for me as you can tell by my battery stats.
What I usually do is I just take a few seconds to disable everything other than mobile data when I'm out and about. If I need to check emails I do so with a manual sync, unless it's during work or on-call hours (Gotta keep them servers running 24/7!) in which case I leave on autosync.
I try to never leave location on unless I need to use Maps, and because of that I keep all the stuff that's supposed to use WiFi even when WiFi is off disabled as well. I'm sure there's fifty ways I could automate all of this into profiles but I like the manual control over my battery consumption.
I haven't run numbers but I've kept the phone uncharged for almost two days with no problems. I was even able to make it back to home on the last 5% with three or four subway stops and plug her in before she died. And that's with the default battery.
I think it's more about overall mindfulness of what processes are running versus an insane level of finetuning for the process. If you make sure A) that WiFi is disabled, and that B) WiFi is *REALLY* disabled, meaning no scanning for networks or being used for location services, then even if you have fifty networks saved it won't scan for any of them.

Moto X battery draining on cell standby!

It was all good before but it suddenly started to drain out the battery. I saw the battery stats, its the cell standby that's using almost all the battery. I turned off the moto voice and moto display, no change. Maybe it has something to do with the location reporting as I heard somewhere. Even in airplane mode it still drains the heck outta it.
Some information:
Model: XT1058
Version: Lollipop 5.0.2 Stock
Status: Rooted
Developer options: untouched
Additional:
- Greenify installed
- No battery savers installed
- Drains even with USB charging and no activity with phone
See the Screenshots attached below.

I have turned off location reporting and kept in charging or a while. I will update the thread if it's solved.
And it still remains the same, although the battery is slightly increased.

when you are not using 4g services than set network preference to 3g or 2g. disable mobile data when connected to wifi.

I'm always on WiFi, I already set to 3g as I use it occasionally but its not just that, airplane mode is useless, it shows radio uses battery. Maybe reseting is the only option.
I think this was common in the 5.0.2 version, I had bad standy cell drain and i think a lot of people on the MFN soak test forums also complained about it.

The only way i've found to get rid of the mobile standby battery drain is to keep wifi off. Dropped from 71% (one day with wifi and 4g on) to 4% (entire day with only 4g on). Only wifi with mobile data off still gets the mobile standby issue, albeit with better total battery life. Android 5.1 update just sucks for battery compared to 4.4.4, used to get through an entire day with 30-40% left and now im at 1% at 10pm.
Moto x battery draining on cell standby!
Even I am also facing the same trouble in my Moto x 2013 version which was not there in kitkat. I guess it is a hardware issue as my friend is also having the same mobile but he is not facing this issue.
Is there a bug fix for this yet?
I don't have the issue anymore and I turned of cell internet when not needed, installed power nap, wakelock detector, greenify, servicely, GSM battery, recently, and DS battery saver. One of those or all of them help, I don't know, but I get 7 hours screen time and my phone can run for 3 days without use
---------- Post added at 12:18 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:16 PM ----------
I also think there's a bug in how Android reports the battery use because the app GSM battery sometimes shows a completely different use if battery stats and the GSM makes more sense so I think it's right and not Android
See the difference. Android has my screen using 75%, but GSM battery has it at 55%. The other totals are close. I have seen it a lot worse than this though.
See I keep data off and I don't have problem. The bug is, the switch from WiFi to data using voice over IP, or vise versa. Google has to find a way for it to work, without the cell stanby issue
Is there no way to fix this with root?

[Q] - Android OS high battery consumption on 4.4.4 when connected to WiFi

Hello.
My XT1058 is running 4.4.4 at the moment.
I've noticied that when connected to a good WiFi, Android OS starts consuming battery.
It seems to only happen on my WiFi.
Signal strength should not be an issue, since connection is at about -60db.
I've a Linksys E900 running DD-WRT.
It's configured as N-Only, and running WPA2 Personal AES security.
I would not think it's a router's firmware issue.
Would you be able to assist?.
Thank you.
Is your phone always awake?
It's hard to tell.
It's not showing as "active" in the battery graph...
I've also installed System Monitor Lite, which tells me that the phone is actually going into deep sleep.
Today I've drained the battery until the phone shut off, and then charged it while powered off until 100%.
So I do not have more than a few hours of this deep sleep measurement.
But, slowly but surely, now back at home connected to WiFi, I'm noticing that Android OS is gaining a few % points each hour...
It's quite hard for me to ping point what's causing this issue, and was not able to find anything certain.
It's not location services, because it should happen on other wifis as well...
Thank you.
I had a similar situation with Android System eating a lot of battery, but my phone was always awake (solid bar in the battery stats) . Turned out it was backup to Google servers. I've unticked "backup my data" under Backup and Reset in settings and my phone goes to sleep now and battery is back to normal (4 hours of sot).
No, that is not what's happening here.
Phone is not active all the time, it's about 79% in deep sleep according to System Monitor Lite, and 12% at 300 or so mhz...
I've installed another firmware to my router, and the issue is still present.
Battery is draining while connected to wifi as hard or even harder than on 3G mobile data.
Went to sleep, and after some hours of not using the phone, this is the result:

You can see that the incline of the graph while being on wifi is steeper than on 3g. Also, Battery Drain app tells me that drainage is about 3-4% per hour, while it's below 3% being on mobile data.

I was able to run wakelock detector without rooting...
It turned out that there were some heavy wakelocks referring to nlpwakelocks.
I've read about those, and should be related to location services. But I didn't have location history enabled, and was already using battery saving as location configuration.
I also disabled location and rebooted the phone, without success...
So I decided to perform a hard reset on the phone...
I'm going to run it for a few days, and will report back

How are things going after the reset?

It worked ok for about 2 days, then the drainage reappeared.
I was able to run wakelock detector without rooting.
It seems there are a few wakelocks that are related to location services.
I was under the impression it was solved by forcing location services processes. It worked of for almost a week, but after connecting to another WiFi at another home, issue appeared again back at home...
So, summing up: I was not able to solve it yet... It has something to do with location services.
Aww that's a bummer, well good luck to you. I would try the whole root and use the xposed module to stop the wakelock, but since I'm on Republic Wireless and 4.4.4 there's no method of rooting for me.
It's something related to location services. I don't know what exactly.
It's quite odd, because for some reason Android seems to go south without any apparent reason, and starts getting fixates with location... and then, without me doing anything, it stops...
I've noticed that when this happens, if I'm using GPS as high accuracy, while having the screen on GPS icon would start appearing frequently on the task bar. That icon would be present for about 5-10 seconds then disappear. Then, after a few seconds or minutes, again, and again, and again...
This is not app related to me...

Hello.
It's been a while, and to be honest I forgot about this topic.
In fact, it was reminded to me while creating a new one, to tell you what I've discovered.
I've narrowed down the issue, and I think I know what's happening, but I have no idea on how to fix it, or why is it even happening...
It turns out it's not related to location services, since I've disabled them altogether...
But issue still remains...
It seems the drainage appears while connected to the wifi, and the desktop that's connected to the same wifi router is on...
Oddly enough, item that appears on the top of the battery usage is "Android OS", and nothing related to WiFi.
Also, idle time while issue is not present (that is, on wifi and desktop off) is superb...
I do not really know how could I fix this issue.
Any insights will be appreciated There's no network traffic while the issue is happening, because I've a meter installed on Android that tells me 0kb/s traffic.
PC is running Windows 7 64-bits, router is a Linksys E900 running DD-WRT firmware.
Thanks.
Believe it or not, after uninstalling ES File Explorer, issue disappeared... Not sure what's wrong with that app that makes Android OS crazy... But after weeks (or even months) after uninstalling the app, Android OS is not draining battery anymore...

Cell standby drain

Hi all! First of all here are some screenshots about my battery stats. I'm not sure if these stats are right with SOT 6 hours + but it's kind of interesting that cell stanby is greater than my 5.5 inch screen. Also if anyone could tell me that Cell standby is measured together with wifi? If that's the case then i should not worry anymore, because wifi is on all the time.

First screen shot says it all. Shabby signal = high drain.
Outside of that - 6 hrs screen on over 2 days - what's the problem
And what can I do to make the signal better? I always have almost full or full signal bar, so it's a bit confusing :S
Also please tell me if WiFi is measured under cell standby?

well I care, because either my wifi or my cellular is draining my battery in an abnormal way, for example today i lost 30% in just 1 hour with 20 minutes SOT just browsing the internet on mobile data a little and using facebook. and i could get 7 hour+ SOT if my cell standby wouldn't be eating 35% of my battery at the end of the day, all my friends have cell standby at 8% average all day, i get 20 - 35% with the same operator, even if i have an excellent signal( full or almost full bar) with -95 dbm.

What others get means nothing - I get 10+ hrs sot, and still have 20+% battery left.
I will say this - facecrap is well known to eat battery, and eat it fast. Try an alternative to the fb app.
Oh - Google wifi scanning - might help.

Please understand, I don't mind helping people with problems, but I don't see a problem with your sot. It's about the same as mine, and I don't consider myself to have a problem - this is actually the best battery life I've seen on a device I've owned in a long time.
If it really bothers you, contact moto/lenovo, whoever takes responsibility for this device and see if they can help.
Most of all - don't worry - be happy!
Are all the bands that your telco uses supported by the g5s?
My screen off time is perfectly fine. The battery will barely deplete when I'm not using the phone.
If you have the time and opportunity then try airplane mode but WIFI enabled. Bad signal will eat your battery, I have the same problem at home. I regularly see 15-20% battery use for Cell Standby but with the modem disabled Cell Standby will disappear completely.
Found the permanent solution, it appears that the SIM 1 slot is faulty, placing the card to slot 2 fixes the radio problem and now I have full green signal bar, no drain

[Question/Discussion] Severe battery drain in PIE stock May and June

I bought this phone 2 weeks ago, and soon rooted it and installed May Update via Fastboot.
While I'm generally happy with this phone, there's serious battery drain issue due to a particular wakelock called IPCRTR_lpass_rx. While there are others like RILJ etc. they are still not that severe.
I've tried Wifi on + data off, both on, both off, Only Sim 1 activated, both sims activated.
After this, I even put my mobile on flight mode for a night and there was around 20% drain overnight. In my previous mobile Redmi 3S, there would hardly be 1% drain over night on flight mode and 3-4% if Wifi was on.
I was tracking these using BetterBatteryStats, however, while tracing the root cause, i even uninstalled BBS and used the system in-built bug report and analyzed it on battery historian to track the wakelocks and all.
Then came June update. I clean flashed through the unofficial fastboot, formatted data partition as well so as to leave no stone unturned. Again the same situation. A lot of battery drain.
Here are some reports -

2. I woke up around 3.30 AM UTC (in the graph) (i.e, 9 AM IST) and checked my battery percentage. It was down to 30% from 50%.
3. Checked the main cause of wakeups, not much in Userspace wakelocks but massive amounts of kernel wakelocks from IPCRTR_lpass_rx. For the duration of this graph, there were over a million (2.3 x 10^6) wakelocks from this service, causing wakelocks every 2-3 seconds.
4. Even though phone went into full doze after some time, this wakelock continued.
Any suggestions on how to go about solving this?
Running June update, Rooted + cam2api enabled using Magisk patched boot img
Its been a month since i moved to a custom ROM, currently on Havoc OS 2.7
The severety of the bug is lesser than stock ROM, however, still quite random and causes battery drain and keeps CPU awake!
Check the wake sources, IPCRTR_lpass_rx is the number one wakelock with 10^6 wakelocks!! Thats way too huge in my opinion, and keeps my CPU awake.
At least i can prevent the wakelock to a large extent by turning off location, wifi (or both) in Havoc. It also doesn't occur during flight mode, or if it does sometimes, a restart usually solves the problem for me.
Ideally, even if i keep wifi on, battery should not drain more than 4-5% overnight (which was the case in all of my previous phones, and in my friends' phones other than Mi A2).
This is december now. And so far, the only problem i have with this device is the poor battery, intensified with software problems, poor modem and LPASS!!!
Its kind of frustrating for me.
Please see the screenshots and the attached bugreport.

Well, i'm very satisfied with battery on this device. It could be better, but it's only 3000mah.
This ss was taken yesterday.

Could you find what this Lpass wakelock mean? It occured 3720k times in 5 hours for me.
Unreal!
