6.0 Marshmallow: Doze

I did not do a factory reset after upgrading to 6.0.
 
I have never done a factory reset after any update/upgrade and never had to. The only time I have ever done one is when selling the phone. I understand that it does "fix" issues that some people have but when you consider how many millions of people there are who also receive these updates and know nothing about a factory reset, this tells me that for the majority a reset is unnecessary. In fact, if it was the standard procedure to do a factory reset after every "major" update then a factory reset should just be built in and the end user made aware that this would happen and to backup everything first. Or better yet, the update would automatically backup everything to a special partition, do the reset, and reapply all the apps and settings. But, I guess that is what is happening anyways!

These updates are designed to work without a factory reset. I think most of the issues related to "glitches" after an update like this are due to 3rd party apps more than anything else. My $0.02
 
I did a factory reset and I am still losing about 6% battery overnight, most drain from cell standby, I see some folks have been losing on 1-2%

They probably don't have the cell standby issue.
 
So last night I turned off WiFi and went to sleep with 47%. I slept for 7 hrs and woke up with only losing 4%. Doze seems to be broke when WiFi is enabled.

I lose about 4-5% over 8 hours with everything (cell, data, wifi, bluetooth, GPS, etc.) turned on.

Is your WIFI connected to your router? I typically have mine turned on and connected and my phone never enters Doze. I lose like 10% or so.. I turned WIFI off and my phone finally entered Doze last night, I saw a 4% drop and a pretty flat line in the battery graph.
 
Sunday night, went to sleep with a full 100% battery on WIFI, woke up Monday morning with nearly 40% gone.

Last night, went to sleep with 45% charge but disabled wifi, woke up with 7% gone. In my specific case, Doze isnt working while on WIFI, not sure what the hecks going on. I freshly wiped recently also.
 
How do you access Doze?

My wife's aging Note 2 has ADHD and drops serious battery since an errant 4.4 Android update. It comes and goes but mostly its always on.

Doze was introduced with Android 6.0.
