Insanely being awake please help

[Rajeev Kumar5]

I don't have any idea what's keeping my moto x insanely awake. I rebooted many a times. Restated by pressing power and volume up button. Nothing worked. I don't want to factory reset. Do you guys have any solution? The problem started 2days ago. And yes in these 2 days I didn't installed any new apps.
Android OS, Google service and Android system eats away all the battery. In idle mode it eat up the juice at 6.7% per hr. It dropped down from 93% to 37% overnight in idle mode... very frustrating..

And what is this "Mobile Radio"?

When did you update to lollipop?

I would try a couple of things. First wipe the cache partition. No data will be lost.

Booting in safe mode could narrow the Search. If it fixes the problem the culprit is an app that you downloaded and went wild.

I had this when I got Lollipop. I had to do a factory data reset. Bit of a pain, but it solved the problem and battery life is now better than when I had Kit kat.

I am based in India... This is a pure edition and Lollipop came out of the box...

In your screen shot there is a logo next to airtel. Is this a running app? If so it may be what is draining your battery. I also noticed the E next to your signal strength. This means you are on Edge (AKA 2G). If the phone is set to LTE (AKA 4G) and you do not get that service in your area then the radio will continuously look for 3G and 4G signals. This may be what is showing up as Mobile Radio in your screen shot.

You can change this by going to Settings>More>Cellular Networks>Preferred Network Type and choose 2G.

Hopefully this helps you out.

This is my first post to this forum. I signed up to see if I can get help. My 1 month old Moto X 2014 (always on Lollipop from the beginning) started having terrible battery issues about 2 days ago. It started getting hot and draining quickly. I've been scouring forums trying to figure this out. There wasn't any new app that I'm aware of. I wiped the cache (from within the OS.) I uninstalled a couple of apps I thought might be causing issues (Facebook messenger, TMobile my account.)

But last night, I had it charged to 97% when I went to bed and it was dead in the morning. The battery history showed it was dead by around 3am in the morning. Absolutely crazy loss of charge for being asleep, screen off at nighttime. What the hell? I'm not a tech ninja and I really don't want a device that I have to micromanage every ^%$ setting just so the dang phone doesn't die at night. And to have to do a factory reset after 1 month with the device seems messed up. I'm frustrated. Any guidance? I tried Wakelock detector, but my device is not rooted and I don't want to root, so I'm not sure if there's a wakelock analyzer alternative for lollipop unrooted?

If you go into the battery settings it will show you what is using most of the battery. Take a screen shot and post it here. Tap on the graph and a more detailed graph will appear. Take a screen shot of that and also post it here. This will let us see what is affecting your battery and we can try to help you further.

There are a lot of battery apps in the play store. I personally do not use any but I dont think they all need root.

I found the culprit. It was Google+ app. I had my phone in my pocket and started to feel it heating up. I checked GSam battery monitor app and saw Google+ was off the charts hogging power. I disabled the app and wiped cache and now it's night and day better. My battery life is better than ever now. Google+ was probably draining battery all along. I'm happy it's able to be disabled. I don't think I can uninstall completely. Hope this helps others.

My Nexus 5 started doing this a few days ago as well so I'm positive it's an app that was recently updated. All GSam says it's "Android System" which is so useless since it doesn't say which app is using those built in processes. My battery went from 100 to 0 in 5 hours just sitting. I'll try disabling Google+ and keep my fingers crossed that works. I hate safe mode because it removes all of your widgets when you return to normal mode. Guess I could do a nandroid backup first. Or if anyone knows of a more detailed battery app, please post it.
