Something is keeping my device awake

[Pirate Arr]

Could anyone have any idea on this? What is keeping my device awake especially with the screen turned off while it being kept awake by something

I would go to your Settings app and see what apps are running the most. Check your battery usage stats to see what percentage of your battery drain is allocated to certain apps. That may give you a clue.

Do you have a lot of social media apps? Anything that most likely runs in the background to keep updates going?

When did you notice this happening? I have had a similar issue, I've noticed. There's rarely ever a time when my phone is not waking up.

What does your cell service look like? My question to everyone else is: would your cell service affect the phone waking up?

Unlikely - lousy cellular service could cause horrendous battery life, but wouldn't cause the device to constantly wake up. You probably have some app that's keeping the device awake.

You can use the stock Battery view to see what app is using a lot of power, but to see which app is keeping the device awake you really need to track wakelocks, which unfortunately requires root (ex. https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...=com.uzumapps.wakelockdetector&token=RSAbFx59)

Well, I think my battery life today is decent considering the bad cell service I had in a movie theater. Should've turned on airplane mode while I was in there. Currently at 46% with 2 hours and 36 minutes of screen on time. This is much better than I had been getting. Last week, Google Play Services was eating up 7-10% at day's end. The T-Mobile was the culprit, I believe.

Your cellular signal was pretty lousy most of the day.
And there are still a number of instances where the phone is awake but the screen is not on - you could try GSam Battery Monitor Pro https://forums.androidcentral.com/e...etails?id=com.gsamlabs.bbm.pro&token=uWviiIjo (there's also a free version) to see if it sheds any light on the situation.
