OK well after looking through those logs it appears your phone certainly doesn't have an issue going into Deep Sleep, meaning your drain is not from some rogue apps causing massive Wakelocks.

For example your phone slept for about 8 hours and was awake for 50 minutes with about half those minutes being Screen On Time. So all in all that's good to see.

You do have many Alarms firing, but they seem to not be causing too many issues, they're Waking your phone briefly and getting their job done. I see Google QuickSearch ( Google Search / Google Now ) firing the most alarms but if that's a feature you like using then that's the price you pay. If you don't use it, it can be frozen or removed, that's up to you though.

You have apps syncing and also some Location requests, which could also be from Google Search / Google Now, but again no biggie.

You're using an older version of Better Battery Stats, which if you updated to the latest XDA Free Version ---> https://www.dropbox.com/s/kmmt7pmixc4o89y/BetterBatteryStats_xdaedition_2.0.0.0RC1.apk?dl=0

And install it as a System App maybe then your actual Partial and Kernel Wakelocks would show, giving us even more info.

I'd say though you're not in terrible shape though by looking at what you provided. I'd suggest Hibernating everything you can. What brightness level do you usually run at? I'd also suggest using Nova Launcher and the Gesture option so that when you Double Tap it Hibernates all your Apps and Locks your phone, that's helped me a lot.
[Nexus 6  General] FMMFL:
Thanks a lot. I have installed the newer BBS and Nova. Hopefully that will tell us more.

My brightness is around 40 with adaptive off.
[Nexus 6  General] Mistertac:
Well the other Wakelocks would let you know if there is anything else going on, like potential bad service or any number of problems really. I think if you were to manage your apps and accounts syncing throughout the day together with using Nova and possibly ditching as much Google stuff as you can you'd be in much better shape.

Same deal, eh? Hmm..
[Nexus 6  General] laureanop:
I'm a little concerned about this. I've never has this issue on T-Mobile at my house and it's been constant on this phone. Again, I don't have a battery problem but this is an indication that the radio is not as strong as a Motorola radio should be.
[Nexus 6  General] crashercarlton:
Hmm not sure. I'm On AT&T. I have a bad area in between work and my house for 10 miles that i can never hold a signal but i hold onto HSPA for 8 of the ten miles with the Nexus 6. so far its far superior to my nexus 5. My note 3? Well sometimes my note 3 could hold onto a data connection on that 10 mile stretch but it was useless where my nexus 6 i have a solid connection till it finally disconnects from the tower on the indiana side and connects to the Illinois OFF network tower.

On a Side Note & JUST FOR FUN!

[Nexus 6  General] TheEmpyre:
I have no idea how some of your getting six hours of screen on time. But I am ending up getting about three. Waking up at 6 AM and headed to bed around 11 PM so I suppose there is about 17 hours off the charger but only three hours of those were screen on time. I'm not complaining, But just wonder how some of your doubling that. I am on AT&T stock firmware and ROM unrooted
[Nexus 6  General] neriamarillo:
Well for starters I see your phone looks like it never went to sleep so that contributes to your low sot. Consider installing Wakelock Detector, BBS, or Gsam and track your battery usage. Something is keeping your phone awake.

EDIT: People who post screenshots please use the HIDE tags "spoiler" so that we can browse through the thread smoother. Thanks! ?
[Nexus 6  General] clothednblack:
Rom, kernel, settings, play game often/not much, calls, stream movies/music, brightness, all these things play a role in battery life.

Too many variables to list everything, including stopping wakelock and screen on notifications and such.

[Nexus 6  General] TheEmpyre:
First off sorry for not hiding my screenshots. That must be annoying! My question for you is do you think that by me having android wear and a moto360 that this is contributing to my phone never sleeping?
[Nexus 6  General] jbdan:
You can post screen shots of your battery life and usage stats.... that is what this thread is for :thumbup:

As to your question that could be a possibility. Could you go one day without connecting those devices just to see if that could be it?
[Nexus 6  General] TheEmpyre:
Yes definitely. Will give it a try tomorrow and report back. Just got a metal band for my moto360 anyways so it's a solid fashion accessory now lol. Thanks for the reply. ?
[Nexus 6  General] massaappeal:
Consider uninstalling apps that have caused to keep it awake
[Nexus 6  General] crashercarlton:
I agree i know i could benefit by fixing it but its not a bad drain. It jist looks bad from usage over other apps. There is something I've run across and that is possibly media server could be stuck scanning at a bad spot in the memory. But I've yet to find a way to do chdsk type or deal that could even fix that.
[Nexus 6  General] magicc8ball:
Battery monitoring?

I just got my nexus a couple of days ago and I have yet to put all of my apps on it that I would use. Mainly because I would like to get an app that will monitor the battery better than what Android OS does.

Can someone tell me or suggest what app you would use?

I am still on Stock Kernel/Rom.

[Nexus 6  General] oak:
Thanks. Nice app.
[Nexus 6  General] d.cortez:
just wanted to add updated stats representative of my normal usage pattern (calls, email, texting, web browsing & no games). pics below represent what i consider above average usage: 148 emails received / 52 sent (3 Exchange accounts set to push), 1 hour of calls, 50+ short text messages and 20 minutes of web browsing. one thing to note is that my SoT was spread over the 13 hours on battery power. once i hit 17% battery remaining, i used the Turbo Charger for 15 minutes which got me to 36% battery remaining. at 30 minutes i was at 50%. (added the wifi screenshot because it shows total time on battery). yes, i was expecting a little better performance, but it's definitely acceptable for my usage.
[Nexus 6  General] marcadam:
I'm getting about 4 hours sot, which is a bit disappointing but the phone is amazing and it charges quickly which compensates for the mediocre battery life. I suppose that's the price you pay for having a 6" 493 ppi screen.
[Nexus 6  General] dcd17:
I found that having Google Fit installed with the 360 created a boat load of nlp wakelocks. I uninstalled it and switched to Moto body for the 360 and nlp is now gone.

For me, battery life on both the N6 and 360 has been outstanding, matching the great battery life I had on my s5. I easily get 2 days on the 360 and I'm sure I could get 6 hours SOT on the N6 if I wanted to. I run Greenify, and have a few Tasker tasks set up for sync and to switch gps from battery saver to high accuracy when needed, other than that I'm stock, no need for any crazy setups.

I don't think it will last this long but it would be awesome if it did.

[Nexus 6  General] tx3kgtman:
I thought people getting 5+ hours of sot were crazy. Had my att nexus for a week and could get 4.5 sot at most no matter what i did. This morning I unlocked the bootloader, rooted, and emptied out the oem folder. Set my phone back up extactly like i had it before and then charged it to 100%. Dont know what happened but now im getting really good results.

Looks like im on point to get 6+ hours out of this charge.

I forgot to thank you for the suggestion. Greenery is helping somewhat. I've used it on other phones and for some reason completely forgot it. Thanks again.
[Nexus 6  General] rignfool:
Is that on LTE?
[Nexus 6  General] MF88:
By looking at those screenshots of 7 hours screen time on, i just feel disappointed

whatever i do, i only get 3 hours SOT

the phone is doing great in idle mode, but when i use it, it goes Crazy and drains very very fast.

i sold my Crappy Note 3 because it gave me 3 hours SOT After 15 months of using, and i'd hoped for a 5 or 6 with my nexus which never happened

i don't know what to do, or even if 5.0.1 update will solve the problem

if you have something that helps, please do share it with me
[Nexus 6  General] warrenis1234:
this is my best so far, using lean kernel beta 7 (not oc) and the euphoria rom I got my screen on to 9 hours. I have most features off since I don't use them and I want to make sure all battery variables are minimized. this is without using any apps to adjust max or min

before this I was getting around 4-6 sot, so its impressive to me as well. I don't use any apps for battery management, the biggest thing I do that minimizes battery usage IMO is regularly checking the running apps setting to make sure nothing is on. sometimes Snapchat and Plex wants to randomly start up, which I guess I can use greenify for but I just got into the habit of doing it myself

Scale back from LTE to 3G...

You might want to start posting some more info about your setup, signal quality, typical use etc. I, as many others, am getting a constant 6+ sot with a day and a half of use.

Mpdecision is Qualcomm's multicore hot plugging solution... Most people think it makes bad decisions... And therefore a lot of people try to disable it (at least people on XDA)... Some just let it be...

I personally don't like it... I feel it ramps up too fast... And holds the CPU higher than it needs to be
[Nexus 6  General] Mistertac:
That was while I was working and on the road, with various signal, I'd say most of my day was LTE albeit Sprints weeeek LTE signal.

Just a little Wi-Fi on that run in the morning before work and when I got back home. I was running Rastapop with Sensei Kernel. Brightness was maybe 45-50% that's typically what I run at unless I need a little more brightness I bump it up periodically and back down.

You might try PureShamu Rom 2.9 was posted tonight i guess but i'm on 2.8 atm. ADSPD is active but only for 35minutes i was playing with youtube and other songs out of the 3h15m the phone's been on. On every other rom for me it was on from the moment the phone started. Worth a try if you want.

p.s. i haven't tried pureshamu till tonight.
[Nexus 6  General] toprock23:
Add me to the 6 hr club as well! Pure shamu + lean kernel.
[Nexus 6  General] MF88:
I get 3:30 hours using mostly wifi

Will using rastapop rom solve this battery life problem?

I think i should be replacing my phone
[Nexus 6  General] __NBH__:
First charge since getting the phone, wifi only at home but currently on 39% with 4 hours screen on time and about 14 hours since I unplugged it.

Very happy so far as I have been downloading all my apps and setting up the phone, downloaded the free Gravity movie from Google Play Movies twice (as the first one vanished somehow) so easily 3gb over wifi which would normally drain my poor old Galaxy S4's battery good and proper.

The signal strength seems much better compared to my Samsung too, I can tell from looking at the network stats in the battery chart whether my phone is upstairs or downstairs :p, I think that helps a lot with the battery. I will be testing it out and about on 4/H+ later today.

glad to see someone getting similar results to me so I know it wasn't a fluke. let's compare notes lol, I used euphoria rom and lean kernel, you?
[Nexus 6  General] Mistertac:
Very nice my friend. That's the highest I think I've seen for SOT. I'm assuming your brightness was 50% or less right?

For me that makes all the difference. Extremely sunny days I won't get the same SOT as a rainy dark one, but it's all good.
[Nexus 6  General] italia0101:
Holy crap, is android os high on your battery list?
[Nexus 6  General] TechBSwift:
I'm completely stock, rooted no encryption. For those who wants great battery life this what I did.

After you have disabled encryption, I froze all Google apps email, Gmail, movies, games, photos, chrome, etc.

Turned locations, auto sync (including my email app bluemail)

Go into Google search app, and turn off the auto search options.

I turned off ambient display because I have double tap to wake.

I use Bluetooth at all times for trusted devices.

Greenify everything.

[Nexus 6  General] Mistertac:
That's pretty much what I do with all my phone, I get rid of everything Google that I don't need, turn all that stuff off and Greenify.

It's amazing how Google is a battery vampire. Everyone should use Greenify IMO ... Why not right?!

im pretty happy overall with my battery life

just had 49 hours off charger

2% left

4.5hrs SOT

I don't use my phone a whole lot, not really into mobile gaming as I prefer portables

If I can get 2 days out of my normal use that's cool

Did get sick last week for 4 days and never charged my phone that entire time and only got down to 20% so 100 hours+ off charger with moderate use is pretty nice.
[Nexus 6  General] splashattack:
Off the charger at 4pm. 100% on tmobile lte. Stock rom, rooted and unlocked. Mostly web browsing. Light texting. No gaming and only one 10 minute video. Still at 50%, but wanted to see what I could get on a VERY slow work shift.
[Nexus 6  General] RamOdin:
4 hours SOT, 25% left, been 12 hours. All usage is in poor service areas - 22nd floor in NYC, 2.5 hours on train switching between cell towers and occasionally switching heavily between LTE and HSPA+.. At 50% brightness with adaptive on.

I ****ing love this phone... Far exceeds my expectations

just got back from vacation and haven't used hangouts for a week and battery life has been great. today my 1st day with cell service and still didn't use hangouts. got a little over 21 hours of usage and 5 hours of screen time with everything turned on friends have been texting me saying they've been trying to hit me up on hangouts so I tried to turn it on and BOOM sensor_ind kicked in. *sigh* Has there been any update on this issue?
[Nexus 6  General] jbdan:
Haven't seen anything as of yet. Wb
[Nexus 6  General] mertzi:
These things can happen after an under the hood update of google play services or e.g. the play store. A reboot fixes it but a better solution is app ops where you can disable "keep awake" for everything. I've done so on my nexus 5 & 7 and together with Greenify it gives me awesome battery life. Unfortunately the google devs don't put much effort into optimizing power consumption. Volta schmolta, i haven't seen any difference.
[Nexus 6  General] DrexelDragon:
Yeah me neither. Does App Ops require root?

so far after 3 days testing this the first day i had i actually got 6 hrs 20 min screen on time, since then i have got 5 hrs 40 at most but mostly because my house has weak signal and i was home most of those 2 other days but still does the job and good battery for me

On my 3rd day with n6, battery has been pretty poor.

Go to bed at 1am, 100%. Screen off. 6 hours later, I'm at 90%.

On LTE no WiFi. Battery saver at 15%. Sync off. Need to do something about those wake locks. Any idea guys??
[Nexus 6  General] jbdan:
@ kava1

Google services higher than your screen. I've had that before. I've always attributed it to several things although I'm not clear on exactly what those are.

Couple things to look for. Do you have WiFi always scanning on? Location reporting? Device manager? OK google hotword detection on always and on even when phone is off? If you check your google account settings and which apps are syncing does one or any of them show a red exclamation or error? Wait you said sync off nvm that one. How long you had the phone and what cycle is this?

My girlfriend just got home from her first day of having her Note 4 and has 3 hours screen-on time with 71% remaining. I was going to be okay as long as a "comparable" phone got about the same but her phone is making me hate and regret this decision.
[Nexus 6  General] jbdan:
Yes I do but am not worried about it. Assuming your cell radio is on all day every day I think this is normal. Now if it says something like 80% of the time without signal then you could have an issue and be in a bad coverage area

[Nexus 6  General] nyijedi:
I have 2 questions:

1) I'm assuming apps like gsam don't cause too much of a battery drain themselves, correct? If not, why is this?

2) Does anyone else use Yahoo Weather? Despite greenifying it, it regularly shows up in wakelock detector, and I don't know why. Greenify shows that it's hibernated.
