I got my One in November and I've had battery issues from the start. I exchanged it for another one within the first two weeks and the one I have now is just as bad. I've done everything I could think of the past four months to make it better but nothing has helped. After the kitkat update, it has gotten much worse and the phone gets hot just about every time I'm out of range of my wifi networks.
I love this phone, but we're talking 30%-40% drain in about two hours and mid-day charge on top of an overnight charge. The drain is even worse over 4G.
I am a heavy phone user and the battery does not drain nearly as bad when it's idle, but it still has a heavy drain for idle. I let it fully die once a week and keep my hands away from it while it's charging. I've reset everything, downloaded apps to detect running apps, bugs and everything else. I delete apps I don't use, turn of wifi when I'm on 4G and just about everything else I've read in forum after forum with the same results. Nothing is fixing this problem.
I recently switched to Android from iPhone, so I'm somewhat lost when I start digging through my phone looking for stuff that doesn't need to be turned on or stuff that is running.
Any ideas, suggestions, advice would be helpful.
If you do have suggestions for changing settings, please speak to me like a Kindergartener, I'm seriously lost in 75% of the custom settings.
