Battery Life

[paininthenuts]

When I got my new G3 a few months ago the battery life was amazing. I got about 3 days use on average, now I am struggling to get two. At this rate I will be lucky to get a days use out of it by February. Has anyone got any ideas what is happening ?

Can you post some screenshots of the battery stats?

I would typically get a full days use with 4-5 hours of SOT, or 7 hours if I just sat on WiFi using it constantly... 3 days would have been a dream...

That said, clearing the cache partition is a common "fix" for losing battery life... https://motorola-global-portal.cust...prod_answer_detail/a_id/105527/p/30,6720,9390

Note this procedure will seem to take a LONG time, 15-20 minutes in some cases where it appears like nothing is happening, be patient and wait for it finish, you will know when it's done.

Otherwise, I would install something like GSAM Battery Monitor and monitor the usage for a couple days, it gives much more granularity as to what is happening and what is using the battery.
