No, it shows an estimated almost 15 hours on a charge to full discharge (which you should NEVER do - always try to recharge at the 40%-60% point), which isn't bad. It also shows that you used Maps and LG Health a lot, but didn't have the screen on much.

It says that the battery is currently at 41% (which means I'd charge it in about an hour or two), and 3 hours ago it was at about 47%.

What's the problem?

I may be missing something here, but how is it possible to have the screen on, even if it were at its lowest brightness setting, for 2h 25m, and yet consume only 3% of the used charge?
Puzzled, UK.

I suppose this is still an early build for 5.0. Or the polish version is not fully compatible with his version of the phone? Strange.

That doesn't make sense. It can't be a real measure.

I've just lost 34% of my battery charge overnight, most of it to Android OS and Android System, which I hope will cheer you up a bit. What laughs! But those two occasional battery drainers are old friends, whereas your problem seems to be a new type. Do you know any other G3 owners in your area, who might be having the same problem? We need to learn whether it's a general G3 update problem, or one unique to your device.

no this is the final version of android 5 Poland version i downloded from mylgphone

There's nothing final about the first version of Lollipop. I suspect many "bugfix" releases to come in the next few weeks. ;)

LOL i think i read that is not unique bug for me many guys report this bug at xda and not only lg health drain my battery also something called google service drain use 30% and my screen only 3% LOL
 
^^^If it's Google Play Services, that app is now contributing substantially to the drain of the other two I mentioned, as I text this. Heh heh. That's in spite of wiping the Cache Partition, clearing the Cached Data in Storage, and turning off Location Reporting altogether. I think that the Play Services drain is likely to be caused by apps using location reporting, or a syncing error. But I don't know that.
Together we will beat this, Hamz.

and i would to recommend an app call Gerrnfiy its amazing app man :) he close all app keep running in background expect whatssapp\viber or any app you want to let it work in background :) hope you like it :)
 
Yikes, if true, I hope this is something that can be patched. Battery life is so critical and wasn't 5 supposed to use less battery?
 
^^^It was, but early days yet, bugs to be fixed, finishing touches to be applied, is what I'm thinking.

Perhaps related to this issue is that Android L for the Google Play Editions of HTC's One (M7 & M8) that was supposed to be released Friday 11/21 was delayed:
Android 5.0 Lollipop update for HTC One (M8), One (M7) Google Play Editions delayed by Google
If you are rocking the Google Play Editions of either the HTC One (M8) or the HTC One, then you were probably gleaming with joy when it was announced that your devices will receive Android 5.0 Lollipop this very Friday, November 21. This would have made them the first Google Play edition handsets to officially receive the latest and greatest iteration of Google's mobile OS.

Unfortunately though, it just became clear that the stock-Android version of the HTC flagman won't receive Lollipop today. This bad news got broken by Mo Versi, the Vice President of Product Management with HTC, who also broke the news about this Friday's confectionery update. The fault is, seemingly, not in HTC, mind you - the VP claimed that the Taiwan-based manufacturer submitted the software build for the device to Google back in Monday, but Mountain View informed HTC that it will "need to re-spin SW". Mo Versi said no more, so we don't know when Lollipop will eventually hit the HTC One (M8) GPE and the HTC One GPE.


On my old phone, HTC One (M7), I had gone into the Google Play Store settings and selected the option to not update apps automatically. When I got my new phone (G3), I went back to the Google Play Store, the option to update automatically over WiFi only was selected. Wonder if that could account for some of the unexpected battery drain on Android L.
