Water damage and factory repair question My Moto X 2013 camera stopped focusing a few months ago. After troubleshooting, factory resetting and talking to customer support, I'm about ready to send it in for a repair under the warranty. This is my first time doing this for a phone, and I want to...

I full charge (or as full as possible) before bed then leave the phone in airplane overnight and lose about 1% battery / hour. I thought that leaving the phone on a charger over night was "bad for the battery," not sure if that's true at all.

A few days later and my phone hovered under 1% /hour in airplane mode. The battery went from about 89% to 82% over 8.5 hours which comes out at 0.8%/hour, but I don't have exact numbers because I'm not sure what the batter was at when I turned in. KWKSLVR guessed that the Location Settings could...

Under Settings -> Location -> "High Accuracy" Location -> Google Location Reporting -> "Location Reporting" Off, "Location History" Off

Will do!

Not the OP here, but after taking some advice I want to update with my progress and ask for a little more help. Using some tweaks suggested here as well as running down some apps running in the background, I got my battery to discharge ~1.5%/hour with 89% deep sleep over 6.5 hours. Originally...

I get this problem on car trips, and never thought about network signal strength. With a very unscientific approach of changing a whole bunch of things and then waiting to see if they all together fixed my problem, my battery life has returned to my "normal" range, and I have no idea why. I...

I followed the guide and tweaked some of my settings, like turning off NFC and AT&T Wifi Hotspot. Hopefully this will help too

When I first got the phone, I averaged around 17h with moderate use- I listen to a lot of podcasts and audio books. 6 months later I notice it running 11-12 with the same kind of use. The noticeable difference is the idle battery drain and the wakelocks. I'll try restarting the phone more, but I...

I'm not the OP, but I'm having substantial wakelock problems (sounds like the OP's problem) over the last few days on my Moto X AT&T 4.4.2. Last week I cleared my cache with no noticeable difference. Apparently, something called "Power Managers Services" is waking up my kernal a lot. Can you...

Thanks for the help!

Can anyone suggest an app that will give me to the option to restart my Moto X after holding down the power button? I recently switched to the Moto X from a Galaxy S2 . After the ICS update, the GS2 gave me the option to power down and restart the device if I held the power button; I used the...

Re: Nexus 5 - Help me justify The GS3 has a removable battery and an SD card slot. These features unarguably give the GS3 an advantage over the N5. Whether or not the OP cares about that, we'll find out.

I'll take my free phone now. Thank you.

This ruined my batter for the first day after the update.
