LG G4 :: Android System Drain
Nov 2, 2015
LG G4 recently, specifically the battery life. Yesterday, it somehow discharged from 100% to 20% three times in one day, on normal usage. I just don't know what is wrong with the phone. Android (and GSam) claim that the highest user of battery is Android System and Android OS.
What I have done:
-Used LG Access Lock to deny keep awake and location permissions
----worked for a few days and then battery life fell back off
-Full reset of phone
----battery life is actually worse after the reset
-Battery saving location settings
Possible suspects:
-Pebble watch --- constant on bluetooth maybe?
-Facebook/Messenger/Snapchat/etc --- wanting my location constantly?

Having issue where android system is consuming 35+% of the battery? Looking at the stats it seems like one of the bundled services is keeping the radio on for 14/18hrs its been on.

the GSAM app on my HTC ONE M8 says that my app usage is higher than my screen and three of the main battery drainers are: Kernel (Android OS), Android System and System (Mediaserver).
I use my phone properly, charge it very well and have had 4 android phones. None were like this. I have the latest firmware for the M8 (4.4.4). My screen on time is not that good now, around 2-3 hours but when I first got the phone (3 months ago) it was 4-5 hours.

So when I opened up my battery usage I noticed that Android OS was at 70% usage (69% now in screenshots). I check my battery usage several times throughout the day and Android OS was not consuming 70%. It seemed to spike to 70% consumption, which points to an error in battery usage charts.
The steeper drops at the beginning and toward the end can be attributed to the poor reception areas I was in and my heavier screen on time during those periods. The flat portion in the middle is when I went to bed and left my phone for about 8 hours. Notice there are no huge wake locks during my time off battery.
This is my current screen on time....
I'm guessing this is an error with the battery usage calculator but I'm not completely sure. How to know if this is an error with the battery usage or is Android OS really consuming 70% and how I should fix it?

Strange that there aren't much complaints about that, but after I got the even buggier 5.0.1 update, the WiFi's battery drain is unstoppable. My usage and settings are exactly how I left them before the update several days ago. WiFi uses about 60% while the phone sleeping. No abnormal wakelocks details detected

My phone is one of the "not so good battery" variety, so it needs to be charged mid day every day.
Today I couldn't go to work due to hurricane and thunderstorms near me. so I sat back and played some N64 Zelda for 2 hours and what do you know, I'm at 60% with 2 hours of SoT... probably the best SoT I've ever gotten (I'm guessing I'm gonna have 5 hours SoT today? estimate?) but when playing something like dead trigger with the same exact Bluetooth controller the battery drains much faster. (I would say the same battery wasted in half the time)

I've got a very big problem, since the last update im experiencing heavy battery drain and as i can see its becouse of the "android system" uses 50-90% of battery.Before the update this number was around 3-10%. I dont know what to do,my phone gets really hot and the battery percentage drops in minutes.

It is correct that the android system on a brand new Xperia Z3+ uses 9.42GB of the phones memory. Surely this can't be right because it's only a 32GB phone it's not even one week old and it's telling me that 75% of my memory is full. How I can reduce the size of this file...

I usually watch Netflix in bed then go to sleep. In the last week, I occasionally wake up to find my batter drained (down 80+%) overnight. According to GSAM, the culprit is Android Core Apps. Not sure what that is. I thought maybe Netflix was still downloading, but that's not Android Core Apps.
This is Nexus 6 on 5.1.1 using mobile radio only (no wifi).

So the Android System is using a lot of battery. I was using Twitter and Facebook mostly and played around with the stock camera app briefly.

I just got my new One M8 a few days ago and ran into some battery draining issue. After charging the device (second charge if to be precise), I went to sleep with 99% battery while all apps are closed, Wi-Fi is turned off and Battery Saver wasn't on. After 6.5~ hours, the battery was at 89%. In my opinion 10% drain overnight, during standby is a lot and that's why I'm a bit concerned.
Based on some recommendations, I installed GSam Battery Monitor, please see below results. It looks like Kernel and Android System consumes 36% which is a lot. How to decrease the consumption and what causes the Kernel and Android System to consume 36%?
On that matter, it seems like the GSam consumes 5.8%. When I close the app, does it stop monitoring and consuming power or it works in the background and keeps sucking the battery?

And my s5 is running HOT. I can't put my finger on it. I went from 100% battery to 11% in less than 6 hours on standby. What processes may be draining he battery? Location is off, battery doctor and CM security take care of all junk and background apps, sync is disabled. I'm shocked!

I'm using an app that configures a vpn profile and connects to it. When I'm connected, I want just my notification to be shown, but android provides its own notification that is shows and I can't seem to get rid of it. Any possible way to get rid of this without root?

I just got notified that there is an update for January that is available to update.
I have followed the unlocking and rooting guide, and as such I'm worried that updating OTA will break my root.
How can I correctly update to the latest firmware without losing root?

So my phone said that there's an update and I went ahead and pressed okay for it to install. It went straight to Android system recovery and now every time I push reboot system now, it goes right back to the system recovery page, and when I take my phone battery out and put it back in, it still does the same. Is my phone completely messed up now or something?

on my previous phone (Xperia Z2) I can plug in to my computer via USB and copy files to/from the internal storage or SD card. When I plug my Nexus 6P in to the computer the same way, I just get an empty folder. I can't see all the files on the internal Android file system. Is this normal?

The android system (6.0) update notification came on my phone yesterday (Moto X Pure 2015). Since I couldn't connect to a WiFi where I was, I decided to switch to my cellular data. But as soon as I did that the notification disappeared. I tried finding it on my phone settings, where you go to settings-->about phone-->system updates. It says my device it upto date. How can I retrieve the notification? I was waiting for my android OS update for a month and then this happened.

I generally don't have trouble getting through a work day with my S6, but I do wonder whether the Android utilization is high. During a typical day (1 - 2 hours SOT, 14-15 hours off charger), I'm burning about 60%-70% of total battery, 30% of which is Android System (~22%) and Android Kernel (~8%). Google Play and other apps are all typically < 5%. Is this normal, or does this indicate that a factory reset might be a good idea? On previous phones I don't recall core Android being this high (usually <10%).

I have (as probably quite a few of you) upgraded my Xoom from HC to ICS (3.2.6->4.0.4). After the upgrade, I saw a massive battery drain and began wondering what was going on. I noticed the "Android OS" process was keeping the tablet awake through the middle of the night and I assumed it was the culprit.
Given that the Android OS process is part of the system kernel, I figured something went wrong in the upgrade. Flashed back to 3.2.3 Honeycomb from the motorola website, and did OTA upgrades all the way back to 4.0.4.
I left apps off, completely stock, locked, and back to the way someone would get it brand new. I did not install anything; and went to sleep for the night.
I woke up to about a 10% battery drain, the Android OS had used 80% of that 10%. Before ICS I was able to go 5+ days with moderate use on my tablet (Juicedefender and various other helpers), now I can barely make 1-2 days.
