    Ridiculous battery usage

    I've been having problems as well since the latest software update as well. I had a 30 minute drive to work - didn't touch my phone and it went from 100% to 73%. Also, a ton of apps keep crashing on me when I open them - especially messenger. If they don't crash, they take forever to open...

    I Don't Think My Battery Life Should be This Bad

    sorry to sound like an ***** here? But under Settings > Data Usage my options are Mobile Data, Limit Mobile Data Usage, Alert Me about Data Usage, a chart of total data usage for the month, and then "app usage" that shows Facebook, Twitter, Chrome, EMail, etc. However, there is nothing about...

    Why is my battery suddenly draining so fast?

    what do you mean by "wake time"? On the battery monitor, "held awake" is at 0% right now. It seems like "screen" takes up a vast majority of the battery use on my phone.

    I Don't Think My Battery Life Should be This Bad

    I've got a similar problem on my Turbo 2 - the battery seems to suddenly be draining much faster. (possibly since the system update in early November, but i don't know the exact start date) But, if I go to System > Storage & USB I have the options of Android OS 7.94GB and Internal Storage...

    Why is my battery suddenly draining so fast?

    Sorry, I did not realize I hadn't logged in. My phone is a Droid Turbo 2. And, I unplug my phone at night when it's at 100%. In the past, I would wake up in the morning and it would be at 97/98% with no apps running overnight. Sometimes at 99%, sometimes 96%. However, when I do it now, my...

    cannot text or post without minimizing anymore?

    Thanks - I've had FB Messenger for a while now, but never had a problem until this week. Never heard of Brave, so I doubt I have it. I'll try a new keyboard today, though.

    weirdly, I did the clear cache partition again last night and it worked, but I seem to have lost all of my "auto fill" data in the process.

    I have no idea on Marshmellow. I'll have to figure out how to check that in the morning. I did the clear cache partition this afternoon, though, and nothing happened.

    Thanks - I'll check try uninstalling and installing other apps. but, unless it was a recent update, I don't think I've installed any new apps in weeks

    OK - just tried that one and it did not work. :(

    I'm going to try this one now.

    The problem is, I don't get any popups or overlays that take me elsewhere, AFAIK. It just randomly starts happening and seems to involve every app. After the second time I cleared the cache partition (yesterday morning), I was fine until lunch time today.

    cannot text or post without minimizing anymore?

    Thanks - when I did the first cache partition clearing, it took a few hours for the problem to reappear. So, it's kind of hard to tell if it continues to be a problem, as I don't know when, or if, it will re-occur.

    I tried that, and it worked for 4 hours or so today, but it started again with the problem at lunch time today. So, it seems like it was a temporary solution. Thanks. Any additional steps I can take?
