Moto X Android OS

[thatotherdude24]

I know there are several threads about this but I haven't found one for the Moto X with any definite answers.

I have attached several screenshots. I've never had an android phone where the 'android OS' is what uses the most battery. Usually it's the screen or phone calls. Any idea what could be going on? My CPU usage is higher than my screen on time. Yes, I've restarted the phone. Any ideas?

What about location services? I had high Android os a week or so ago so I disabled location services and turned that battery saver feature on. I heard it only kicks in around 15% but my battery seemed better so not sure if that's just in my head. What's your awake time in general when you look at battery stats? It's pretty hard to diagnose now that I can't look at the battery programs from the play store so I may need to look into root.

The things I would try are to check all your settings. Also was this on WiFi or Mobile Data? Signal strength? Is it like this everyday or just a few times?

Also, might be an errant app, or widget that is causing problems.

Here is also another link for some having something similar on the Moto X. http://forums.androidcentral.com/moto-x/337154-why-android-wasting-all-my-battery.html

Those instructions don't work for moto x.

You don't really need a wake lock detector. You tell from History Details under Battery. Click on the gray bar. Even if you have partial wake locks, Android OS will still be high. I can go for 30 hours on a charge and it's still high. It doesn't matter. It's arbitrary. All that matters is whether or not your getting solid battery life.

I think several things are at play. 1) With active notifications, always listening and driving mode, this device has more going on than previous devices. It may be of power, but it still uses cpu AND uses Android OS. 2) The radios in this thing seem awesome and with battery life as good as it is, even on 4G, I wouldn't be surprised to hear there's some lower power stuff going on there too.

Again, you don't need some wake lock app, especially if you aren't rooted, because it's only going to tell you the same info as battery history details. A ton of people seem to not even realize it's there. If your screen is off and the device is awake then you've got something going on with partial wakelocks. That still doesn't mean there's something "wrong".
