Moto X 2014 High usage from cell standby even with coverage

[davinci27]

I am getting a lot of battery usage by cell standby. I'm not in a bad service area. The page actually says 0% usage without service. Anybody else having similar issues?

Here's mine. It's going to be a higher percentage if your not making a lot of calls.

I see you have Spotify running. Do you have Spoitify running most/all of the time? That may have something to do with it.

Edit: Now that I'm thinking of it, were you even connected to WiFi today? It might be normal usage with being on cell signal all day without WiFi.

I had spotify running for about an hour. I was on WiFi 80 % of the day.

I noticed the same thing over the past few days, with a similar scenario. I use Spotify about 2-3 hours per day and am on wifi probably 90% of each day. I'm on Verizon and my company has VZW repeaters in our buildings...the phone is on our wifi but I have a full strength cell signal all day in the office.

The phone had been going about 15 hours with 3 hours screen on time and had ~30% remaining for the first 4 days, then suddenly the past two were showing a high Cell Standby consumption and chewing through the battery quicker. Last night I had to throw it on the charger after 13 hours as the battery drained under 10%. Today is better, but I have less than 1 hour SOT.

What was your SOT? Those percentages add up to 100, they show relative use by each function, not absolute numbers.
