Battery mostly used by cell standyby?

[conan1071]

When I don't make many calls, my battery is used by cell standyby about 35-50%. It really drains the battery. Get about 15 hours with 3 hours screen time.

How do I stop this high usage? I've done factory reset and wipe cache.

Perhaps you are in a weak signal area?

This happens to me occasionally. And it's pretty random when it happens. I have great signal at home and at work, and I will sometimes notice high battery drain and it's cell standby. I have no idea what causes this. It will also happen when I haven't made a call that day. I don't get it. A power off and back on usually fixes it.

Yep, the way to stop it is to move to a place with a better signal.

My signal is good. I notice the high drain when I don't make calls.
