    Abnormal battery drain

    If the battery looks warped and gets noticeably hot while charging, it needs to be replaced. That's a no brainer and it cannot be salvaged or worked around. It's kaput. If the battery is fine, but when you pick up the phone and it feels slightly warm, even though you haven't used it, then it's...

    LG G3 battery suddenly started draining insanely fast, not after update.

    If the battery looks warped and gets hot while charging, it needs to be replaced. That's a no brainer and it cannot be salvaged or worked around. It's kaput. If the battery is fine, but when you pick up the phone and it feels slightly warm, even though you haven't used it, then it's probably...

    Battery is Suddenly Draining Suuper Fast - Screen using up to 60% of battery at 30%?

    Well, i did this after fully charging my battery and so far so good. 28 hours have passed and i'm only at 51% battery level, which is the best stat ive had thus far. Waiting for it to completely drain as per instructions before charging again. Will keep monitoring and see if that overnight drain...

    Battery is Suddenly Draining Suuper Fast - Screen using up to 60% of battery at 30%?

    So the latest thing i've researched and will try (while my battery charges up and i can get a day or two worth of data from GSam) is battery calibration. Seems that the batterystats.bin file located in your /system storage needs to be formatted and reset after installing a new ROM (which, is...

    Battery is Suddenly Draining Suuper Fast - Screen using up to 60% of battery at 30%?

    Well, i thought i had made some progress with the changes i've made but the problem continues. Not as bad as before but something is draining my battery after midnight, when i put it down to go to sleep - and this is random; sometimes it happens and other times it does not. It's very weird and i...

    I've also read that auto brightness as well as adaptive brightness should be turned off as it uses more battery than it saves. Oh and also, i noticed that your battery use for Media is high. Sometimes android will scan media on your storage and get stuck on a file and it will drain the battery...

    Battery is Suddenly Draining Suuper Fast - Screen using up to 60% of battery at 30%?

    This started to happen to be in the past two weeks (i'm also using verizon) - battery stays over night sometimes but randomly i will wake up to less than 5% remaining when i started with over 50% before leaving it overnight. I have done possibly everything short of doing a factory reset...

    How do I get my screen to light up when I get notifications?

    Re: Screen light up on notification Seems there are lots of requests for this on the android boards. It's a software issue, so i don't think any phone manufacturer can help with it. I [re]installed Screen Notifications (can't post link because i'm new here, it's the app with the yellow light...

    How do I get my screen to light up when I get notifications?

    Re: Screen light up on notification Yeah i have the LG G3 on LP and i've been looking for this too. All the forum users always misinterpret this request with the LED light or how the notification shows up on the lock screen - all we're asking is for the screen to turn on (not just the LED or...
