LG G3 "Android System" huge battery drain

[levoresume]

I was ok with the battery life of my g3 until couple of days ago, i used to unplug from charger before i go to bed and and the battery drain was less than 4% until i wake up.

now i'm getting 30% of battery drain during the night with screen time on is 0.

any suggestions?

Yes, it IS amusing when that happens, isn't it? I think we've all been there. I find that a simple Soft Reset fixes it, presumably by stopping in its tracks whatever it is in Android System that's temporarily misbehaving. Or perhaps you've tried..?

I just had it again the other day. I just restart my phone and it goes back to normal. It's just like your PC/MAC where it should get rebooted on a semi regular basis. Apps misbehave, memory leaks, etc.

I've had this same issue before. It can make a 15-20% difference in battery life.

Unfortunately, Android System will mask a lot of what is really going on there. I take it you are unrooted. Much of that on the Android System screen is bloatware.

Your battery life really isnt bad. Try turning on WiFi. Another vital app I have been using is Autosync2 to disable Google's untimely syncing when I'm away from WiFi and a power source.

I usually let my phone die than I charge it, so I must have done at least 3 soft resets but strangely none of them fixed my problem.

too bad that i just getting started enjoying my g3

You may care to try Settings, Apps, All, scroll to Android System, select Force Stop, then Power Off and Restart the phone.

You didn't switch to ART did you? My stand-by battery life went really down like that once I switched to ART.

Everything that runs under android system is shown under "Included Packages"
I see you still have Carrier IQ (CIQ) installed, get rooted and get rid of that A.S.A.P.
Carrier IQ is the LADDM apk. That crap runs constantly.

I actually switched to ART because I'd run our of idea's as to how to solve my battery drain issues and was getting desperate.

It was only this morning, so early days, but it seems to have worked.
Immediately went from losing 10% an hour on stand by to more like 2 or 3.

Sorry posted 2 times, don't know how to remove.

I'm Dutch. Can you please tell me what ART is?
My LG g3 battery is draining most of the time 10% every hour while he is closed and the screen is off!.
Android needs the most 60-70% battery in a day. So when I do nothing the battery drains fast.
Help!

Welcome to AC and the G3 forum.☺

ART verwijst naar Android Runtime .... de standaardinstelling op de G3 is Dalvik. Als Android-systeem wordt ontladen van de accu, het eerste ding om te proberen is uitschakelen van de telefoon, gevolgd door Restart (Power Off and Restart). Het kan ook de moeite waard naar Instellingen, Apps, All zijn, gaat u naar de Android System app en selecteer Force Stop .... dan Power Off de telefoon en Restart. [Goog.Tr.]

Dank je wel voor je antwoord. Restarten doe ik iedere avond al dus dat is de oplossing niet.
Ik heb de app Android System nu gestopt en mijn telefoon weer opnieuw opgestart.
Hopelijk lost dat het probleem op want hij loopt zo snel leeg dat het niet leuk meer is.
Over een paar dagen kan ik meer vertellen.
Ik heb al green power en auto sync geïnstalleerd, en dat hielp een beetje.
Het is toch niet normaal dat Android 75% van de batterij gebruikt (ook na installatie van de 2 apps) terwijl er niets met de telefoon gebeurd!

Helaas is dit voor mij niet de oplossing, Android blijft de batterij leeg zuigen.
Iemand nog andere ideeën?
Ik las wel op internet dat de LG g3 op het einde van dit jaar geüpdate wordt naar Android 5.0 en dat dit de batterij duur verlengt. Laten we het hopen!
