[MENTION=5503387]erk1725[/MENTION], I installed JDK 3.0.5 and despire M 30 kernel,. After using your settings, my screen wont come back after it goes to sleep. I need to restart the phone to use it again. Any idea why its happening..

also I don't have option for touch boost in kernel adiutor app.
[Nexus 6  General] xe0r:
What do you mean by using "my settings"? I've never published any settings I use.

I'm sorry but I can't help you. Never used any m ROM nor have I heard of something like this behavior.

I guess you get better response if you demand for help in the original kernel thread.
[Nexus 6  General] atrix4nag:
Sorry for quoting you i wanted to quate [MENTION=5503387]erk1725[/MENTION]

Thanks
[Nexus 6  General] erk1725:
I read somewhere in the [MENTION=5169465]DespairFactor[/MENTION] kernel thread that since jdx rom comes with elite kernel you need to go into your init.d folder and delete the elite kernel script? I've never had issues running despair with jdx like you seem to be having and I apologize for that. I suggest you search back a few pages in despair kernel thread about the init.d elite script and then delete that and boot to recovery and dirty flash jdx rom and despair kernel in same recovery session and see how things work from there.

As for the touch boost setting in kernel auditor app its located in the hotplug tab under intelliplug?
[Nexus 6  General] atrix4nag:
[MENTION=5503387]erk1725[/MENTION] thanks for pointing me to init.d issue. I tried it, still I am unable to fix it. still i am having the same issue. I will continue with my current for now. Thanks for your help..
[Nexus 6  General] erk1725:
I'm sorry to hear you are still having issues. I would try to wipe cache and dalvick in recovery and flash rom and kernel again. I'm sorry I don't really have any other recommendations. Hopefully [MENTION=5169465]DespairFactor[/MENTION] can help more. Im still on jdx 3.0.4 and never had these issues....i would post your issue in the kernel thread, or in the rom thread and see if you get better feedback. I hope it gets sorted out for you! Its running so well for me and I know a lot of other users have jumped on this combo without issues also

Good luck to you and again, I'm sorry I'm not more help

[Nexus 6  General] atrix4nag:
I am having the issue on stock settings. The steps i did yesterday night are..

1. installed 2.8.7 TWRp

2. flashed M bootloader

3. flashed M radio

4. reboot recovery

5. flashed ROM

6. booted into ROM

7. setup google account and installed es file explorer only

8. removed the files as suggested in the kernel thread

9. rebooted to recovery

10.flashed kernel

11. wipe cache and dalvik

12. reboot to ROM

13. wait for screen to go to sleep, it doesnt turn on

i used 3.0.5 rom and 30 kernel. May be i should have tried 3.0.4 and 29 same as yours..
[Nexus 6  General] erk1725:
Seems to me like everything you did was fine and it should work! I'm sorry it's not working right for you. I'm running 3.0.4. And despair 29.5
[Nexus 6  General] atrix4nag:
I will give one more try with 3.0.4 and 29.5

---------- Post added at 02:11 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:34 PM ----------

It worked with 3.0.4 and 29.5 and applied your settings.. So far everything is fine..

Do you suggest any other settings to get battery life like yours.

Thanks for your help
[Nexus 6  General] erk1725:
Awesome! I'm glad things worked out for you! As far as settings go, I don't use Google now and so I don't have location on except when using maps. All sync off...I manually check gmail. You will just have to play around with things, but the setup you have now is a very good base for better battery. Also I don't play any games so I don't experience any lag with my daily usage. Keep an eye on your signal and wakelocks

Here is a shot of my current usage at 50%

Good luck!:thumbup:
[Nexus 6  General] atrix4nag:
Thanks for your suggestion.. I dont use google now, but I have sync on for whatsapp, gmail, calendar and contacts. I will see how much battery i will get with these... I dont play games. My mostly used apps are facebook, whatsapp and browser. Definitely not getting battery as yours, but better than my previous stats. I will wait for it to settle down and will see my battery in couple of days.
[Nexus 6  General] erk1725:
Here are some screens of how my cycle finished up. I had a little issue at 15% and the screen went black and only my notification bar would cooperate. I tried to plug it in for a second but it ended up rebooting so I wasn't able to take an updated screen of BBS. In the screenshot I did post of BBS, you can see an uptime of approx. 2days 4hours at 28% remaining. I included my cpu spy. I don't underclock, but I uv-50 and under the governor settings I set the high load to 99 to try to keep the amount of time at highest frequency to a minimum as seen in screens. In this setup i tried using mako hotplug instead of some of my previous shots showing intelliplug as I felt the highest frequency got used way too often due to one core active. Also I allowed some wakelocks as shown in screens and you can see how BBS reacted as well:thumbup:

I freeze Google now as I don't use it. I have location off except when using maps, disable a few Google services like configfetch and backup transport as I don't need have the backup on under settings/backup either. My signal is the best I've ever seen with the newest radios. I only use WiFi when online/using data. All sync off, brightness as low as I can take. Usually about 8 with some kcal tweaks that make it appear brighter and just slide the slider if I'm outside or viewing pictures and need a brighter screen. No ambient or adaptive display. Wifi scanning off and build.prop edit for wifi scanning to 360. Basically, what I've been trying to do, is get a base with more or less bare bones active to see what I could get SOT wise and then I could start to enable features that I would like to use and see the reaction in battery and go from there. I don't play games so I have a lot of things backed down, but I haven't noticed a decrease in performance on my end. I'm very happy with my setup and feel I can say this is my average SOT with my average use. Also, I use airplane mode at night since I don't get calls and don't want calls at night when sleeping. Sleeps like a rock, everything works! Love this phone and all the wonderful people here on xda!!

This is jdx 3.0.4. With M CFS uber r29.5 despair kernel

Hopefully I didn't load any duplicates! Ha

Thanks so much again everyone and I hope these settings get you something similar or something you're happy with. I will more than likely start turning a few things back on and see what happens....I'm addicted to tinkering! Haha
[Nexus 6  General] lantigua:
After a full charge and 12hrs of use, here are some screenshots of what it's looking like for me.

3:30 screen on time and still 25% battery life. On KitKat and Lollipop, using basically the same apps, I was nowhere near those numbers. If I did 230hrs it was a good day.
[Nexus 6  General] Bl4ckX:
Any Android Wear users here who are suffering from 0 deepsleep and permanent msm_serial_hs_dma and bluesleep wakelocks while Bluetooth is on? Because that's an issue I'm facing right now.
[Nexus 6  General] pb1379:
Yes, completely sucks [emoji35]
[Nexus 6  General] Bl4ckX:
Did you clean flash the update or did you dirty flash?
[Nexus 6  General] jmelan:
battery life on M is great so far, finished the day with 72% yesterday
[Nexus 6  General] Stolly08:
Screen on time?
[Nexus 6  General] Face_Plant:
Wtf is "over-counted"? It has drained the same amount of battery as the screen.
[Nexus 6  General] erk1725:
I get this also....it just appears sometimes and I have no idea why either. I was hopeful the official M update would fix this, but I haven't flashed it yet to see. Are you on the official update?

Thank you
[Nexus 6  General] Face_Plant:
I am on official 6.0, not a preview.
[Nexus 6  General] erk1725:
So much for that idea! ha.....Im still on preview 3. Hope to update this evening

Thanks:good:
[Nexus 6  General] pb1379:
Completely pristine install (formatted user data, then flash-all.sh). No changes of any kind (no root, custom recovery or kernel, ...) ?
[Nexus 6  General] Rdotyung:
I went from 9am-1045pm with 50% left. Loving this phone and loving this update.
[Nexus 6  General] atrix4nag:
SOT?
[Nexus 6  General] pb1379:
A couple hours ago I installed ElementalX, now everything is perfectly fine (Bluetooth used like 66mAh so far, compared to the 800+ with the stock kernel in about the same timespan). You might want to give it a try.

There's definitely something wrong with the stock kernel, thus.
[Nexus 6  General] isamu982:
Decent battery life I would say

Xtrasmooth rom

Hells core kernel

1 hour of Play Music offline playback.

Moto 360 connected.

Google now on, but only for the news.

Forgot this screen shot as well

Also, is that normal for chrome?
[Nexus 6  General] Bl4ckX:
Installing ElementalX didn't help me yesterday but I did a factory reset. Maybe this fixes it.

There seems to be quite a bit stuff not working correctly with the update. I've stumbled across quite a few bugs in the 24h of using Marshmallow.

Edit: So far the factory reset seems to have helped out. My phone deespleeps now.
[Nexus 6  General] Yasharkhan:
I'd say this new 'Doze' feature is definitely helping, I'm on complete stock rom no root and I'm getting almost 6-6.30 hrs of Sot, that's with excessive browsing, Google play and Spotify and kik use.. I'm really impressed, it's like a new life for our sweet nexus 6
[Nexus 6  General] whitefang3456:
Whoa ! Can share what's your setting for ur device? Thanks!

Whitefang
[Nexus 6  General] Yasharkhan:
as i said its completely stock non rooted, i dont use adaptive brightness and ambient display and my brightness bar is just at 15 percent, other than that nothing else..
[Nexus 6  General] lyrical1278:
I've never needed high SoT numbers myself (that has nevr been a realistic measurement for my day), just needed the phone to last a full day while connected to my Moto 360. With that said, the standby time is amazing now amd it feels nice to know, when I do have heavy usage days, the phone will still be of use by the end of my day instead of me searching for a charger while not even halfay through my day.
[Nexus 6  General] android.vibrant:
Bluetooth connection to my Moto360 is not making my phone going to sleep mode and drains more battery. Tough choice to pick between connection to android wear or longer battery duration
[Nexus 6  General] Face_Plant:
Second full day on official Marshmallow and over-counted is #1 on my list again. Does anyone know what over-counted is?

Despite this, battery life is still pretty decent. I'm at 9 hours off the charger with 67% left and 2 hours and 42 minutes of SOT. I had a pretty crappy signal all day, too.

The brief section of charging on the graph is from when I transferred ~25 gigs of stuff onto my phone.
[Nexus 6  General] solid009:
I'm not sure whats causing the constant awake, but its not fun :( I have my moto 360 connected, maybe its that?
[Nexus 6  General] Mistertac:
I'm with you on this one. For those having terrible battery life I'm not sure what to say really. Of course I think typically it has to do with the apps people have installed, but some here have even said they don't really have anything installed ? !

Next thing.. Maybe terrible cell reception along with the radio possibly needing an update or two to fix things.

Or just a bad battery?! Hard to say. I wish it was more simple to figure out though so people could enjoy their Shamu!
[Nexus 6  General] noxaro:
[MENTION=1627640]pathtologos[/MENTION]

is the battery life close to what iphone 6 plus offers? better or worst?
[Nexus 6  General] daddioj:
there was no reason why they could have stuck a 3900 ma battery in this thing. why do manu keep underpowering there devices. i would like to fire and shoot all the idiots who makes these decisions
[Nexus 6  General] pathtologos:
I want to be very careful on how I answer this question. For ME, the battery life is similar. I believe it was SLIGHTLY better on the 6 plus, but not by much. If you look back a couple of pages, you'll find a post of mine with a very unscientific test I did between both devices--the result was that they are very similar in battery life.

HOWEVER, there seems to be quite a few individuals posting on this thread who are having a very different experience. Unfortunately, they are reporting pretty horrible battery life and so far there seems to be no rhyme or reason to it. I was thinking that one possibility was the carrier. I for one, am on t mobile, and I'm getting very satisfactory better life.
[Nexus 6  General] italia0101:
I wonder if that is the culprit? On my n5 that doesn't even show up
[Nexus 6  General] noxaro:
I only need 4.5 - 5 sot on LTE. At least 18-20 hours of mixed usage.

I read a lot of reviews, xda posts, reddit, etc...

Tha battery life is great for some and suck for others..
[Nexus 6  General] daddioj:
screen is def culprit
[Nexus 6  General] italia0101:
What do you mean? If that was the case everyone would suck, but that isn't true
[Nexus 6  General] daddioj:
i am sure some screens are better than others. i bet these are rejected panels in some way or another .
[Nexus 6  General] greenro89:
Anyone use GSAM here? I turned off ambient and adaptive brightness but now I have something else.. When I click it, it shows audio on for over 4 hours! No music or anything..
[Nexus 6  General] loggainsd:
Any ideas what's causing mine to be so bad? I disabled location history last night and it hasn't seemed to help any. Google now is on.
[Nexus 6  General] pathtologos:
According to your first screen shot you've had the device off the charger for 7 hours and your still at almost 60%. Unless you've have the screen off most of that 7 hours, I don't see what's so horrible. All factors remaining the same you still have another 7 hours of battery life. That's 14 hours. What's the problem?
[Nexus 6  General] loggainsd:
Thanks. The screen's only been on a little over an hour though which would point to 3hr max of SOT. I was thinking that was pretty low even with 14 hours off charger. Maybe it's just me then.
[Nexus 6  General] pathtologos:
One hour, huh? That's a bit low yeah. U use high brightness?
[Nexus 6  General] loggainsd:
Im using auto with the slider just slightly left of 50%. Adaptive is turned off.
[Nexus 6  General] pathtologos:
Well I have auto turned off and I keep brightness around 60%. I get better battery life when I set it between 40 and 50. But for me 60 isn't a bad trade off.
[Nexus 6  General] halon17:
I already switched mine to LTE but does it make a difference if the phone is on Global?
[Nexus 6  General] loggainsd:
Hmm. I should be seeing at least equal to yours then.

And yes on global.
[Nexus 6  General] pathtologos:
I switched mine to LTE. Don't know if that's helping my battery life but mine is pretty darn good.
[Nexus 6  General] loggainsd:
Ok. I'll try that and see. Thanks yall
[Nexus 6  General] Face_Plant:
Doze FTW!!!!!!
[Nexus 6  General] jmelan:
6am to 10pm with 65-75% battery over the past few days, screen on time is usually about 1:30 to 1:45 on 80% brightness, poor service where i live with a microcell needed. I really only care that the phone lasts through the day. compared to 40 to 60% battery prior to the update.

transitions are also smoother, phone feels faster, very happy with the update.
[Nexus 6  General] krazyq:
might be time to re calibrate your battery.
[Nexus 6  General] Stolly08:
How do you do that?

---------- Post added at 12:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:40 PM ----------

Mines gotten way worse in 6.0 .... I had her so perfect on 5.1.1 those last few weeks finally I'm sad now.
[Nexus 6  General] krazyq:
From what I've been told once your phone shuts off.

Charge it for like 4 6 hours continuously.

Then with normal usage let the battery drain down to 0. Then charge it up again.

Do this like 3 4 times.

Hope that made sense.
[Nexus 6  General] neyenlives:
Just posting to say my battery life easily doubled going from 5.1.1 to 6.0.0. Not just the first cycle..... day after day I get amazing battery life.
[Nexus 6  General] jmelan:
looks like you are using a custom kernel? i would try stock
[Nexus 6  General] Lulhasafotn:
Same for me, 5 hrs SOT Stock orginal no root. Thank you google!
[Nexus 6  General] Stolly08:
Nope can't do custom kernel yet on 6.0 without a bunch of BS so I'm waiting, so I'm 100% stock. But I always run Franco kernel when I can.
[Nexus 6  General] Elpatii:
I try your settings, thanks :)
[Nexus 6  General] Stolly08:
Not as bad today I guess.... It just was seeming to loose battery while sleeping so idk I can't tell what my wakelocks are BC no root so no better battery stats :(
[Nexus 6  General] pb1379:
Now that's a forecast I can live with ?

Did I mention that's with a Moto 360 connected...
[Nexus 6  General] android.vibrant:
---------- Post added at 04:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:08 PM ----------

I had that issue. It got so bad that it'll shut down itself at 30%. If you turn the phone on after 15 minutes, it will tell you the battery has 15% remaining... I had a post regarding this. I really think it's the quick charger that's causing the issue.

---------- Post added at 04:14 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:13 PM ----------

Connection to Moto360 is the cause of always awake
[Nexus 6  General] pb1379:
I had Bluetooth keeping the phone awake constantly with the stock kernel as well. Installed ElementalX, and everything is perfectly fine now. That's some two hours, with the Moto 360 connected and 23 minutes sot:
[Nexus 6  General] wazza1991:
Yes. When the phone shuts down at 6% I try to switch it on but it won't. But then when a plug it in and switch it on the charging resumes from 6% and not 0%. Once I had noticed that when I switched on power saving mode at around 7% the battery had reached around 4-5% but as soon as I turned off battery saving mode the phone shut down. Is it a battery problem?
[Nexus 6  General] Elpatii:
Why I lose more battery with screen off than with screen on...

I had the same problem with Android Lollipop, with many combo of ROM/kernel. Battery problems?

Android 6.0 official - Despair kernel 31.2 (2 cores - 35MHz-2649MHz)

Anyone to help me?
[Nexus 6  General] jayesh:
I had this issue. I simply switched it to a older USB charger and it's settled back to normal. Since i charge at night, i can live with the increased charging times. Funnily enough the older charger is my old iphone 5s charger, with just the microusb cable.

At work i use my Zenphone 2 charger, which is also QC 2.0. Don't use it with the nexus if i can help it though.
[Nexus 6  General] deo777:
Over 5 hours stock rom
[Nexus 6  General] A2CKilla:
I never shoot for on screen time (I'm not staring at my phone screen all day) I go for overall time, and I believe I'll take this any day.
[Nexus 6  General] Scythe:
I was disappointed with marshmellow but I think they finally started to do something about battery.

One full day of wifi(mostly connected) and very bad signal level. Stock rom, hellscore kernel with small adjustments(just -50mV). %50 brightness at dark.

I've definitely seen Doze at work in Android Marshmallow; stand-by time increased dramatically
[Nexus 6  General] PhantomGamers:
For some reason my battery life has been pretty bad, it was worse on Lollipop with the Mobile Radio Active bug but it's still pretty bad on M and I have no idea why.

Got down to 56% after 9 hours of mostly idling, only 15 minutes of on screen time. Android OS uses the most coming in at 14% usage, 1h 53m 7s of CPU total and 1h 11m 44s of Keep awake. ;_;

on xtrasmooth. Marshmallow stand by time works really good for me.
[Nexus 6  General] LGtMgG2t:
That was the case the first day or two when everyone was in pure panic mode to try and get M on their phone. lol It's no longer the case though. I just flashed Elemental 3.02 on the Pure Nexus 6 Marshmallow without issue. In fact, the ROM and kernel flashed just as easily as any other LP ROM I've flashed.

I'll be trying the Despair kernel out in a day or so as well. Seems the early bugs have been worked out and plenty of M kernels to try out and see how they affect our battery.
[Nexus 6  General] beren:
This is my very light daily use....during night I use flight mode.

I am still impressed about Doze and how it can save the battery when the phone is sleeping...saves battery for when you really need it.

You have the same wifi is always on bug just like me. This really annoys me..
[Nexus 6  General] LGtMgG2t:
Better Battery Stats has M support in the latest build. It can be found on the Play Store. GSam Monitor works with M too but so far I've not been able to get Wakelock Detector to work.

The WiFi always on bug isn't new, was happening on many LP ROMs as well. As to why it has never been fixed....no idea!
[Nexus 6  General] lexus91:
have you check under the wi-fi settings always allow detection? you gotta turn that off..
[Nexus 6  General] LGtMgG2t:
One of the first settings I change on any ROM actually. I have it set to only be on while charging.

Edit- I'm not entirely sure WiFi is actually staying on and it may just be a cosmetic bug in the stats that the system provides.
[Nexus 6  General] szkorhetz:
What makes you think this?
[Nexus 6  General] lexus91:
because the same problem happened to me and I realized that under the settings always detect for wi-fi is turned on. turning off the options fix the problem
[Nexus 6  General] LGtMgG2t:
Because Battery Stats will show WiFi on overnight but if I look at idle drain then it is still below 1% an hour. I have however noticed that if the phone sits for an hour or so and I turn it on...the WiFi icon is already showing in the status bar. So I have no idea really.
[Nexus 6  General] gogol:
The WiFi always on bug is real.

I have both WiFi scanning OFF and Bluetooth scanning OFF in the Location Settings.

And I saw WiFi always ON in the battery History details, even though WiFi is turned OFF :(

I am on a completely stock 6.0 factory image, no root, just unlocked bootloader, stock kernel, no corrupt device warning...I am getting about 5 hrs of screen on time and my phone lasts from 7:30am to 11pm. Meets my needs.
[Nexus 6  General] jeffreii:
Hey guys - for the last few weeks I've noticed "Bluetooth Share" as the top culprit for my battery drain...haven't had this problem before and can only fix it by turning off Bluetooth...I'm accustomed to leaving Bluetooth on 24/7 because it's a pain in the butt to turn it on and off every time I get into my car, and the battery drain has never been significant.

Anyways, I was eager to update to 6.0, figuring that would cure the problem...but after wiping, flashing, wiping again...Bluetooth Share is still killing my battery! The only Bluetooth item I have paired is my car stereo.

See the attached screenshots.

Please let me know if you have any advice for solving this. It's definitely preventing me from enjoying the battery life improvements in 6.0!

Thanks!
[Nexus 6  General] tkso:
Battery life seems to take some hit overnight while device is idle. I'm on Android Marshmallow so thought the doze feature would improve battery life but not sure that's the case.
