From personal advice? Stay away from any Xperia device except the z2 but keep in mind that the v10 is superior to the z2 in every single way... Just go hop to the Z3 or the z3+plus or the z5 forum and look at all the complaints, I've been using the z series since they came out in switching to the v10 as soon as I can afford it.

How can I improve my Sot? I'm averaging 2-2.5 hrs
[LG V10 Real Life Review] trongnghia2411:
By watching videos
[LG V10 Real Life Review] jd.21:
my v10(Dual sim) battery performance.... running on MM. first time more than two days of use.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] Makonator:
turning off mobile data helps a lot...
[LG V10 Real Life Review] Makonator:
Lol 10h of sot...It's like this...my v10 got some yellowish edges around screen, so I turn on app screen burn test..or somth. like that. I leave it running trought the night and at morning mobile was still on...flashing colors on screen :)
[LG V10 Real Life Review] Wael007:
The battery lasts a lot longer now...... I am using a Samsung fast charger..... Charging speed is extremely fast

[LG V10 Real Life Review] kanej2006:
^ How the f**k did you get 10 hours screen on time? I get around 2.5 to 3 hours absolute max battery. Gone through 3 different batteries, makes no difference...

The LG V10 is the worst phone I've ever had for battery. :(
[LG V10 Real Life Review] Makonator:
No mate...this 10 h of SOT are with app flashing the screen. app called screen burn in...I was surprised when I find my phone still flashing in the morning.

If I use normally my phone SOT is 2,30 - 3h
[LG V10 Real Life Review] Fifen:
Same, my phone dies annoyingly fast. I just bought a new battery and it barely helped. I also have greenify which seems to work well when it comes to standby time but the screen on it dies stupidly fast.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] tdot.loco:
I have found that using Andy's rom with Nebula's kernel gives me the best possible battery life with this phone. Before, it would be around 2 pm of a regular day and my battery was about to die. Now it goes until 9 pm or even 10 pm and still got some juice left. I have taken several screenshots to prove I'm not just "thinking" it gives me better battery life. It truly does. I have downloaded some battery monitoring app to track it now but to anyone unhappy with battery life (really, most of us), the best setup for a t-mobile V10 as of right now is Andy's rom with Nebula's kernel.

I don't have root yet, no need for it as this rom is incredibly fast and stable, and of course, as stated above, battery life is truly superb!
[LG V10 Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
When you sleep, does your phone sleep, or does it stay up all night and crunch 1s and 0s? Rate this thread to express how you deem the speed at which the LG V10's battery drains under standby conditions. A higher rating indicates that when the phone is not in use, the battery drains minimally.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
[LG V10 Real Life Review] echto:
Not impressed with the steady drain.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] cpurick:
Turn off Enhanced LTE.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] djranoia:
Yes I went to bed last night and lost 43 percent in 8 hours!
[LG V10 Real Life Review] vexter777:
my battery drain is minimal

I find it drops less than 5% overnight

I recently returned my first LG V10 to T-mobile and have found the battery

life to be greatly improved however on the previous phone it would drop

about 40% overnight!!!
[LG V10 Real Life Review] djranoia:
How did you convince them to do an exchange... was battery life one of the reasons?
[LG V10 Real Life Review] vexter777:
It was a combination of poor audio and overheating but I did

mention the battery drain was ridiculous!

I knew something was wrong with the phone and I was within my

14 days at T-mobile so they replaced the phone and since then

my battery life has greatly improved!!! and it does not get hot like it did

also I had stuttering before that doesn't happen either
[LG V10 Real Life Review] djranoia:
wow lots wrong. my problem is that i'm rooted and have exposed installed so i never know if its the mods affecting the phone overheating and battery drain. Glad tmobile was able to do a swap.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] cepheid46e2:
WIFI is stuck on and won't chut-off for dep sleep. How do you turn off enhanced LTE?
[LG V10 Real Life Review] Robert235:
is enhanced LTE named volte?
[LG V10 Real Life Review] echto:
Turn off VoLTE and also look in the advanced setting in the wifi area, press the three dots at the upper right of the screen, and turn off location and passport.

I still have the feeling that I bought a 'red headed step child' and I don't know if I'm liking it.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] carbon12:
Coming up on 4 hours on battery (unplugged at home, trip to work, sitting at work) and I am still showing 100%, not seeing an idle drain issue. Running bone stock.

I have both WiFi(not connected to a network for commute or at work) and sync enabled (Google, Facebook), GPS and Bluetooth disabled.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] carbon12:
Coming up on 8 hours on battery and a few texts and quick Facebook scrolls... sitting at 94%. Estimated time remaining is around 58 hours.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] echto:
I think I'm getting mine to sleep now. Unchecking the location and passport options under the wifi advanced settings appears to have helped dramatically.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] carbon12:
Excellent!
[LG V10 Real Life Review] ph3nom:
lost about 10% during my sleep of 6 hours..
[LG V10 Real Life Review] shorte_33:
Some of the ideas mentioned above helped, but rooting my phone i noticed a process kept wanting root. Non stop. Did some research on this process and its tmobile checking for things. I plan on keeping phone, but supposedly it will report back to tmobile about your device being rooted and void warranty. Regardless, i used titanium and froze it. the run away process is "com.tmobile.pr.adapt". My battery actually hasn't dropped in almost 2 hours but 1 % since freezing this application, and that's because of other applications i have going in the background. Hopefully this can help ya'll out too.

Do some research if you want on that process, before freezing it, but i've noticed no changes to anything else. Nor do i use the tmobile account app and such on my phone.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] echto:
Yes, T-mobile likes to have all their branded devices phone home, including their ASUS router. I unplugged a T-mobile branded ASUS router for two weeks I had connected to my internal network and one day I received a text stating I was being charged a hundred and something bucks for it. I called TMO and they acknowledged not seeing it active so they billed me for it. I sent it back. I'm not surprised that the router phoned home, but no where in the documentation included with the router did it mention that the device would phone home nor did it mention what type of data the router would be including with each call to the mother ship. That really urked me.

It also urks me that I cannot uninstall the t-mobile app, or disable it. What if I wanted to switch carriers? My phone is paid for. How would I go about uninstalling the TMO stuff? blah!
[LG V10 Real Life Review] thedrizzle:
I'm on the Verizon (VS990) variant.

I installed Greenify (as I always have) and was getting stupid battery drain. I noticed that I have an app called 'Restrict Idle Apps', which is a system app that I've never seen before. Hmm. Just for fun, I removed Greenify. I now get 1% or less per hour drain on idle. My guess is that LG made "their own version of greenify" and they were fighting it out, with my battery being the collateral damage.

Does anyone else have the 'Restrict Idle Apps' or is it unique to the VS990?
[LG V10 Real Life Review] justory85:
U can uninstall all the T-mobile bloat ware. Even the PR.adapt ect. I have on g4 and my v10. Don't uninstall the unlock app til 40 days after its been on the network then u can submit a temp unlock remove the app so it doesnt phone back to them that its a temp unlock and unlock your phone from the network without their help. Volte defense decreases battery life on all devices and wifi calling enabled will send all the same information that the my tmobile app does and is also how they are cracking down on people abusing the hotspot/teth feature
[LG V10 Real Life Review] echto:
huh?
[LG V10 Real Life Review] justory85:
Volte, wifi calling and the my T-mobile app take a large chunk of battery. Part two was about the phoning home by tmobile devices. Removing PR.adapt APk and the other Tmo apps will help resolve this. Wifi calling is somehow connected to the phones original wifi.apk (thus how T-mobile is catching people trying to hide thier tether and hotspot usage) part Three u can unlock your phone from T-mobile w o their help. After 40 days usage use on Tmo network use the unlock app to use one of your three annual temp unlocks. After doing so remove the unlock apps APK from priv-app folder so that it cannot remind the network your only temp unlocked. Then your free to pop another sim in it. As long as ur T-mobile acct is active u can use a Verizon sim or att if u travel outside tmos cellular range. (Like when I visit my mom in the forest of IL) sorry I realize how much info I crammed Into the last post leaving out the Context to which explains it.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] darkwingly:
I have the same battery drain independent of Greenify

I am also running stock V10 on Verizon, and I was experiencing excessive battery drain overnight. When I was using the LG G3, I would drop 2-3% overnight. With the V10 I am consistently dropping about 23% in the same time. This was happening when I first got the phone, then I found out about Greenify, and I installed it to try. Same result, sometimes even worse, I was dropping 23-28%. I have since uninstalled Greenify, and still trying to figure out why the phone keeps dropping 20% or more overnight.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] justory85:
i had to tweak my settings with greenify several times before i got to the point my phone would last a full day on one charge. i still haven't perfected it where my lg urbane will show notifications meaning there is something in the setting still to be adjusted but before my phone only lasted about 6 or seven hours now i can stretch from 5am to 10 pm and still have about 20 percent battery life. being on verizon i would have thought thta i would be easier to make the adjustments to prevent battery drain but i suppose not. i'm t-mobile. and i work there so i have a few ideas about what it takes to keep the phone from phoning back home....this makes me miss my g2 it had a three day battery life....and that was back when i had verizon.

---------- Post added at 09:09 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:06 PM ----------

this goes without saying but i noticed by not having sync on the battery life is greatly improved which makes me wonder what exactly is all synced. and wondering if there is a way to control what is synced......
[LG V10 Real Life Review] bablo86:
Hi guys ， i get my lg v10 from 3 days back taiwan version (H962) and the device is completely awesome.. But the battery is heavily drain in the standby .. Please can anyone help me in that issue and how i can stop this drainage .. Specially i didn't make root for my device and i think till now there is no root available for the taiwan version ( H962)..

Thanks for your help in adnavce
[LG V10 Real Life Review] kms108:
power off the phone.:fingers-crossed:

Just joking.

I had the power drain when first got the phone, and I think I have figured out the problem.

I have stopped using the supplied power adapter, fast charge is not good on the battery, I now use a standard 2.0A power adapter, first time I use the standard power adapter I charged for about 6 hrs, then use the phone as normal and let it auto power off, then charge to 80%-90% now, once the % drop to about 10%-15% I start to charge my phone, I get about 6hrs on 100% during standby.

Will start using wireless charging now, so I will see how it goes.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] Samsung.Galaxy.S3:
Anyone try putting down their phone face-down when going to bed at night to see the results?
[LG V10 Real Life Review] njaustin123:
Overnight battery drain 3-5%

This is my observation:

Initially when not much apps were installed, it was just 2% over night. Later on after installing apps I saw it varying from 5 to 10.

Later removed all the possible bloats, turned off passport in Adv WiFi settings and this is the current drain over night:

1) 3% - Wifi, Data and Sync - all off and device facing down

2) 4% - All On device facing down

3) 5% - All on Device facing up

That looks pretty much stable and hope it will be even better with Marshmallow.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] SaintlySins:
This is fantastic!

I don't use any Batter Saver during the day - when the phone is not in use for an hour or so, it has only lost a percent or two even when receiving e-mails and texts that I haven't opened for a few hours.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] Flaquito69:
I use my Nexus 6 charger instead of stock charger and batt life increase a lot, and charging faster than stock.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] TinCanFury:
Couple questions:

has anyone noticed a difference in drain between wifi or bluetooth being on vs off?

I also have a Verizon version with Greenify (free) installed, would disabling it be enough to see if it has a negative affect?

thanks!
[LG V10 Real Life Review] beavis5706:
If your getting a lot of standby battery drain try wiping the cache in recovery.

Normally my V10 (VS990) barely drains while in standby. However every now and again I will notice excessive standby drain. Wipe cache always fixes the problem.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] rsswga:
I recently switched over to wireless charging and I seem to be getting a lot better battery life
[LG V10 Real Life Review] batman562:
I went into apps>all> and unchecked google backup transport,google play services, google contacts sync, google account manager, google services framework. this with greenify gives me better battery life then i previously had. i now get consistant 3 1/2 to 4 hours still leaving location and google now stuff enabled.

I think my standby drain is neaer 0 over 8 hours
[LG V10 Real Life Review] tempurastyle:
I unplugged it before I went to bed, Wifi on, Sync on, Bluetooth on, Second screen off. Woke up 8 hours later and the battery is still 100%.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] TinCanFury:
how?
[LG V10 Real Life Review] tempurastyle:
I have no idea. The phone is 1 day old maybe. But I have installed all the apps I usually use on my previous phone, the HTC M8. But that phone would lose around 10% during the night, even on Marshmallow. My V10 is still on Lollipop.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] neptun2:
I managed to get around 3% battery drain for whole night with secondary screen on which for 9 hours i think is ok. I don't have facebook or instagram installed but have viber and skype. Wifi and bluetooth were off but data was enabled. Here is what i did:

1. Settings->Networks->Wifi-> 3 dots in upper right corner->Advanced wifi - untick "allow wifi scanning" and "passpoint"

2. Uninstall following LG apps: lg health, remote call service, favorite contacts widget, smartworld, evernote

3. From settings->general->apps->all uninstall updates and disable following apps: google play music, talkback, tasks storage
[LG V10 Real Life Review] melorib:
Wi-fi on, no interruptions, phone upside down, 4% from 23:00 to 9:00 :good:
[LG V10 Real Life Review] melorib:
MM a bit better :good:
[LG V10 Real Life Review] :
There is definitely something going on with the stand by drain. Using the exact same app configuration as with my old htc m8, it ate through 27% of battery during an 8hrs night. I removed every unneeded lg app and don't have any well known drain prone apps (no facebook and such, music players mostly). I'm using the h960a variant.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] tempurastyle:
If nothing else helps, do a factory reset. My phone drains 3-5% per night.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] melorib:
My phone drains 4% over night, today it drained 12%, no calls, nothing that I noticed :confused:
[LG V10 Real Life Review] imanym:
I got this phone on 05/04/2016. The first thing I noticed out the gate was the battery drain. I mean approximately 1% every 2 to 3 minutes. So, what I did was disable the following apps:

All Amazon Apps, calendar, chrome, cloud print, drive g-mail, go90, google app, google play movies & TV, Google Play Music, Hangouts, NFL Mobile and Slacker Radio. Since then I have no battery drain issues. A matter of fact, when I noticed that the phone stayed at 100% for approximately 5 minutes, I actually thought something was wrong.

Now, I am not sure which of these apps was the offensive app, but I not longer have the battery drain issue. Also, I am a Microsoft guy so, I replaced all of the apps that I disabled with MS apps, such as grove, one drive and office. Hope this helps.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] melorib:
Back to 4% over night, it was a one night problem, probably some backup as I leave wifi on all the time :rolleyes:

I have gmail, whatsapp, google play, + widgets for calendar, fotmob and a pair of "beautiful widgets" (time and weather), always on too :good:
[LG V10 Real Life Review] miroone:
That's a great dude, how did you battery life so good! I'm with the same model - LG H 962 on Marshmallow! But the battery is drain too fast, then I liked! So what did you do to have so good battery life?
[LG V10 Real Life Review] melorib:
No facebook app, use the browser to access FB :rolleyes:
[LG V10 Real Life Review] :
If you have location enabled, try to set it to battery saving mode (disabling the gps), that was what was eating my battery. I'm now getting 5/8% drain during the night. Shame the GPS implementation isn't better.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] skingg:
I started getting a higher battery drain on standby after inserting a 200gb sd card recently. Coincidence?
[LG V10 Real Life Review] TinCanFury:
Yes.

I personally didn't notice an adverse affect when I started using my 200GB sd card, so I'm going with anecdotal.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] tempurastyle:
The phone is probably scanning and indexing, shall go away after its done
[LG V10 Real Life Review] sh00kre:
On Battery usage Phone idle is almoust always the first battery consumer.... tried many things, including factory reset... and nothing.... This really really sucks, same aplications as on G3 with same settings, and v10 has more than 50% worse battery life, cant be possible.

---------- Post added at 05:21 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:26 AM ----------

another holy mother of earth issue with our v10 mine with zerolemon charged for 12 hours getting 6hours SOT , drains 20% overnight. WTH

Maybe that's why the name is Zero lemon. If it was any good a name like Super lemon was more suitable :-}
[LG V10 Real Life Review] rascal0pl:
Well, I had awesome idle time on 5.1. After update to 6.0 it started draining like hell. Of course the fluidity of the system is awesome, one of the fastest android phones. But battery in idle is awful. Don't tell me that I need to do factory reset, because I did it when I unlocked my bootloader. It's something wrong with the system. Funniest thing is that better battery stats is showing 89% deep sleep...
[LG V10 Real Life Review] melorib:
I never did factory reset, and battery on idle is even better than lollipop, 3% over night...
[LG V10 Real Life Review] rockinyou:
well i fixed this problem by disabling second secreen while standby(which was always on). now i dont have drain problem. i loose %1 of batter for a hour now(it was %10 before)
[LG V10 Real Life Review] nabril15:
How did you do this?
[LG V10 Real Life Review] rockinyou:
in settings u can see "second screen" under screen tab.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] nabril15:
Oh, ok. You disabled the second screen altogether. I thought there is a setting for disabling it while on standby.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] OnceAMatrixMan:
Of course you can always just turn the phone screen down to shut down second screen
[LG V10 Real Life Review] rockinyou:
Nop. u can find an option there to use second screen while using phone and shut it down while stand by.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] goranbm:
I am using a H960 Europe version and I have it for two weeks now. On the first day I installed al my apps, and I set up all my settings. I am using few apps (FB, messenger, viber, whatsapp, gmail, tapatalk). Wi-fi is on during a day only, data just sometimes, bluetooth always on. Second screen is on only on when main screen is off. First ten days with this kind off use, it was fine, Battery lasted day and a half, with only 5-8% drain overnight. But last few days i get 30-35% drain overnight and over day when phone is not using i loose 5-10% over one hour. Bigest consumption is Phone idle and it is aound 52%. When I add all mAh that is used from battery settings I get aroun 1500 mAh and never more, don't know why ...

What is there to do ?

- I will disable apps like google music, google movies, google search, google photos, dont even use these.

- wi-fi is set to always on

- Passpoint is checked off

Is there anything else I can do ?? Thank you.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] kanej2006:
I lose 1-2% overnight WITH second screen on all night!

However, I bought a larger capacity third party 3500 mAh battery from ebay, same size as the original!

That said, in the US, you can buy upto 3800 mAh battery which is slim and fits as normal in the phone.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] rascal0pl:
The only thing which you can do is wait till Nougat and pryaing for fix from LG. I have exactly the same problem. It is draining even without any app right after factory reset.
[LG V10 Real Life Review] goranbm:
Nope, I resolved my problem by disabling google apps I don't use (google music, google movies, google search, google photos) and I unchecked things for syncing in my google account. Now I can get 40 hours of light to normal use of battery without a problem, with medium to heavy use I get one day without any problem. Before disabling these google apps, battery drained 15-20% in one hour without even using my phone :(

Now I am happy, and everything is working fine for me :D

20% drop overnight

My AT&T LG V10, on a daily basis, loses 20 % of battery overnight. There is no app that stays awake, my second screen remains off when the display is off. Help me out
[LG V10 Real Life Review] nabril15:
Disable the att apps, lg health, and all the other crap that the phone came with. Your screen usage looks high at 38%. Are you using the screen that much before 7:45am?
[LG V10 Real Life Review] goranbm:
Disable all google apps you don't use (play movies, play music, docs, slides and so on) ... I had the same exact problem, only mine was more like 35% overnight, and olso nothing was visible i battery consumption screen, but after i disabled google apps and other bloatware (i left things I use, like google+, gmail and so on)...

I have already disabled all Google and LG apps. I noticed that Android OS is awake for hrs when the device is on standby. :eek:
