By default, backup and sync are set to automatic, this could be the reason why the phone was warm because something was happening in the background. Try using the phone for a few days and see if the problem persist. In the meantime you could go into Settings - Apps menu and check each app (show system app as well) and look for high number of keep awake time. If system app is the culprit, what you could do is wipe the partition cache through recovery mode. Power off the phone, then hold both volume down with power button for a few seconds until you see fastboot menu. Press volume down until you find recovery mode. Once you see android lying on its back, hold power button and immediately press volume up to enter recovery mode. Do a clear cache partition then reboot.

Dual sim? 4g or 3g? Where do you live? How's the network there? 2.5hrs sot is horrible. When was your phone last unplugged? I get 5hrs of sot with dual sim and 4g(24hrs). Network is bad in my house (always shifts between 2/3 bars). Sot drops to 4hrs for 1 n a half day usage. That is usually from 100% - 10%. I use chrome, twitter, Instagram n 9gag a lot with a little bit of casual gaming.
[X Play General] XDASNR:
Like I said, disabling NFC will make a difference!!! Rest are helpers but not game changers.
[X Play General] Phobos.87:
I'm only using single sim, in main slot if it makes any difference. The network is very good here(4g), usually all bars. I unplug it roughly around 5am, go to work, get back home around 3pm. So in 10 hours the battery dropped around 85%, with roughly 2h+ SOT. Mind I'm talking about stock, out of the box phone here, without ANY apps installed at all. It's not fun seeing how my coworkers with Xperia Z2, Galaxy S5 and 1+1 all end the day with roughly 50% battery having same SOT as me (: As far as I know all these phones have smaller batteries with more powerful SoC's...

Thanks for advice again XDASNR, but running around and disabling core features of the phone is kinda missing the point of having such phone...

I find disabling WIFI scanning also boosts battery life. I always keep location on battery saving also.

Still WIFI Battery Drain with WIFI disabled.

Hi, does anyone have been able to stop the battery drain?

I've already disabled the "keep wifi during sleep" mode.

I installed the OTA 6.0 just yesterday.

Thanks (sorry for my poor grammar, english is not my native language).
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
I can't believe that you are getting such numbers. Try disabling NFC n WiFi scanning for a day and report back please? I'm very curious to see if that makes a big difference. I doubt that's the reason you are getting bad battery back up. Buy, Please do try that. If still you are getting the same numbers then I suggest you contact the customer support(they will tell you to perform a factory reset when you call them for sure) and get a replacement.
[X Play General] Phobos.87:
Gonna do that tomorrow, while keeping the phone as close to stock as possible, excluding any 3rd party apps. I'll give it couple more days to let the OS 'stabilize', as XDASNR mentioned (though I really, really don't see why would that ever work?). If nothing changes, I'm gonna try and return it, even if turning off NFC, WiFi scanning, GPS and god knows what else helps. Getting 3630mah phone just to run around with half the connectivity off sounds silly (:

Battery drain and no mute option for camera after MM upgrade

Hey guys,

I also upgraded to the new MM OS 2-3 days before and the battery life is poor compared to Lollipop. Now i am not even getting 1day of battery charge on a moderate use. But i am getting good battery life soon after charging to 100% but once i open a few apps and use the phone for aroud 1 hr, the battery drain starts to increase fast.

I am a moderate user- net surfing over Wifi, facebook and whatsapp , a few games also(play for an hour or 2 at the max)

I haven't reset the phone after the MM upgrade. Would a reset resolve the battery drain issue as i have seen many comments related to the same before

I am also noticing another anomaly. I dont see the mute option under the camera settings. The "speaker" option is still not displayed under the camera settings.

Does that mean there is some issue with the installation of MM on my phone?

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
[X Play General] bablu048:
resetting helps with battery life, after you upgrade you should clear the old cache files.

camera sounds returns automatically after some days, I don't know exactly how but when I initially flashed 6.0 I didn't have camera sound button but after 2-3 weeks when I opened camera it was there.
[X Play General] Phobos.87:
Reseting actually does not help, neither does clearing cache, in my case anyway.

Here's my stats so far: phone unplugged 3,5hrs ago, took it out of the pocket maybe 10 times, no games played, no videos watched, no internet browsed. Battery down to 84% at the moment, with 21mins SOT(!). As mentioned, software is out of the box 6.0, no apps installed, NFC off, WiFi scanning off, etc. Battery consumption stats only showing Google Services, Mobile Standby, Android OS, Screen, Android System and Google App with 1% towards Inbox App. No improvement whatsoever.

EDIT: Battery went down another 3% while writing this post.
[X Play General] AshOmega:
Will "backup and reset" clear the old cache files as well? Or do i need to perform any other tasks to clear the cache?
[X Play General] pijes:
something surely is eating the battery in the background. my phone stats now 73% left, unplugged 9.5 hours ago with 1h 41m SOT, a bit of browsing, emails and whatsapp.
[X Play General] bablu048:
You need to clear cache from recovery here's how https://motorola-global-en-aus.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_answer_detail/a_id/106533/p/30,6720,9392

---------- Post added at 08:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:49 AM ----------

Something is wrong with your device ..I generally get 40-50minutes of SOT between (100-90%) and by 60-65% SOT is 3hr+ .I use the device only for browsing on data, WhatsApp and calls, i don't play games and have removed all unnecessary apps, rooted it. Battery is awesome.

If you are rooted try apmlify to see what is causing wakelocks.
[X Play General] Phobos.87:
Fortunately I was wise enough not to root it yet... If I did and it turned out be hardware issue, I'd be stuck with it for quite some time. My battery as of right now is @ 67% with 47mins SOT. 20% of what's gone is in Google Services, Android OS and Mobile Standby. Other 7% is in Chrome, Inbox, Android System, Voice Calls and Google App, while 6% is just... Gone without any evidence (:
[X Play General] panart:
Weird, i get about 26 hours with 6 hours SOT, about 30 hours with 5 hours SOT and about 40 hours with 4.5 hours SOT. Most of the time i'm connected to Wi-Fi but i have 4G enabled 24/7 with 50-75% signal. I suggest that you do a second factory reset, then let your battery drop to 1%, connect to the charger and let it charge to 100% without interruptions. If you still have battery life issues get the device replaced.

EDIT: i'm on 5.1.1 EU stock ROM (i will try Asian 6.0 soon)
[X Play General] bablu048:
cellular reception is not good ?

try limiting google services ...settings--all apps--goosle play services--restrict background data usage and remove permission for location

app apps--top right corner gear icon--remove all body sensors

see if it helps.
[X Play General] lokesh.acm:
I say,

Either your network is horrible or your battery has a problem. Wait for few more cycles and if nothing changes, call the customer support for replacement. Honest to God that's terrible drain.
[X Play General] Phobos.87:
Thanks, but I did that already, twice...

Reception is perfect around here, full bar most of the time. I turned Restrict Background Data Usage for GooglePlayServices on already, but still...

4G or 3G is used in the Settings? Got similar Problem with my old moto x2 2014. Now i disable on all my devices 4G. I think in my City is 4G not so good (but ive got great 4G Signal). Maybe you can try to turn on only 3G. (i need no 4G either, 3G is fast enough).

[X Play General] XDASNR:
Agreed. Your frustration is well accepted and the right forum to express it at http://forums.motorola.com You do not have choice in terms of disagreement; you have a handset and a problem, time to resolve it. XDA is the forums to find solutions.

Do you come here thinking XDA can magically do some miracle and set right the handset ?

Disabling "core features" solves the issue, like it or not. If you still protest, custom ROMs are the only solution.

I may sound rude, but that's the fact. If nothing else works, replace your handset.

I can finally post pictures, so here goes:
[X Play General] Sickaxis79:
Seems like your google play services is ruin your battery. Have you tried disabling google services much as possible. Like hotword detection,auto backup,search your phone,places nearby,auto sync,allerts etc. You could also try to Greenify the google play services and chrome browser to see if this helps. If this doesnt help you could also try to reflash the original stock rom with fastboot to be sure its not a faulty rom.
[X Play General] K.khiladi:
Seeing your battery related problems, I feel it's a hardware problem or Google services problem but I don't think it's even Google related cause no one else till now reported it. So it's a hardware problem. Try replacing your device.

I will myself post the latest battery stats. See for yourself if you doubt the battery performance of x play.
[X Play General] Paninno12:
Hi K.khiladi, very impressive stats!

Which rom are you using? Are you rooted on Marshmallow? Thanks
[X Play General] K.khiladi:
I am on stock rom. Yes rooted but only use it for beautification purposes ? no amplify or greenify.

The thing is if someone wants high screen on time, he would have to use the phone continuously so that no battery gets wasted on standby. I could have easily pushed it ahead of 8 hrs 30 minutes.

The battery drain on standby isn't good for me atleast.
[X Play General] Phobos.87:
Not sure what your problem is, but coming here for help, that's exactly what I thought. I've seen plenty of miracles coming from XDA Devs and as far as I can read, this very thread is named 'Android 6.0 Performance/Issues'. I came here to hopefully solve my issues and during past 2 days I learnt a lot about my device and figured out what's my MXP's problem. And sorry man, disabling core features does not solve anything.

I think I have a basic idea what might be the problem and unfortunately it seems it's hardware related. Take a look at the screenshot. The drain stopped as soon as I walked within home WiFi range and started again just as I left. Then couple hours later, when I came back, it stopped. I figure it's mobile radio causing the problem here, since it's independent from any other App, OS version, reception, you name it. Gonna go for a replacement then. Thanks everyone for your help!
[X Play General] heisert:
Did you try change 4G to 3G as i said before?

Gesendet von meinem XT1562 mit Tapatalk
[X Play General] Phobos.87:
Yep, I did, for more than an hour. It didn't seem to have much effect though, as the battery was draining just as fast.
[X Play General] eskamhl:
I may sound repetitive but I think that all that draining was due to the WiFi scanning option under the localisation settings..

When you were at home your position was fixed so there were no scanning, instead when you were out your WiFi was continuously searching for free/known networks to better understand your position.

It's just my personal opinion but it does make sense.
[X Play General] fingerprinted:
The Moto x play sucks, but day after day of using it, you will find it sucks less. It's still sucks but sucks less
[X Play General] K.khiladi:
As you can see from battery stat, even the network signal isn't much good. It should be mostly green but there's a lot of yellow and some red spots also.

Maybe that's draining battery as more battery is used in maintaining a connection. Mind you, an area without good enough signal drains a lot of battery.

Also as I can see even when your device isn't awake, wifi remains on. Keep the wifi scanning off from location settings.

Guys, anyone use Swiftkey as keybord? I changed my SD card in a Internal Memory, and after every reboot I lose the prediction. In the prediction bar I saw something like "Predictions unavailable. Check SD card". Very annoying.

I found a solution but anooying too: I have to change into google keyboard and then switch back to Swiftkey. If I reboot my phone, I have to do again.... any tips?
[X Play General] XDASNR:
Inform developers and use Google Keyboard until they fix it.

I have used it for over 4 years on 4 handsets / tabs simultaneously, but no more.
[X Play General] kain83:
Thanks for the tip. I've already done it, in the meantime I'd like to understand if it's a problem related to the app or a bug in MM (on reddit an user just rebooted his phone after the Internal Memory switch and he fixed it)
[X Play General] heisert:
The devs cant understand it. They have only nexus phones without sd cards. I wrote them now Weeks ago (check the Thread in the SwiftKey vip Forum). For me it works like you said: change/Switch every reboot for some seconds the Keyboard (Google/SwiftKey). For me it fixed: factory Reset the Device. Download SwiftKey beta and activate it. After that Format the sd as intern. Now it works for me as it should.

The SW devs have to fix it! But they dont have a sd card Android 6 device right now to Test it.

Here is the Thread: http://vip.swiftkey.com/index.php?/...ot-working-on-Android-M-when-moving-SK-to-SD-[More-info-needed]

For what? I like this device, just not completely impressed with it. I like how the battery life is reliable at work. But it isn't a performance beast that's the ****ty part. Why do we all have to love this device? Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Think for yourself. Don't be a sheep.
[X Play General] Quasar:
Well, the reason we don't care is BECAUSE WE KNEW THAT IT ISN'T A PERFORMANCE BEAST BEFORE BUYING IT. I guess you should do your research before buying the phone. The camera of this phone is better than most out there, and that isn't something you get in this price range. The build quality is decent too for the price range. If you were expecting mind blowing performances from a Snapdragon 615 because of all those cores, you might want to read up on what Cortex A53/57/72 are.

[X Play General] kain83:
Thank you. I contacted the developer and I see that there is a topic in "bug reports" on his forum. I'm afraid that it could depend by SD memory type. After the format as Internal Memory I take the advice that my memory is not fast enough. That it's very strnage because I have a Samsung EVO+ (so class 10, UHS-1).
[X Play General] pijes:
I got similar message even though I have class 10 card as well. I'm guessing its comparing with the internal memory speed, pretty sure all sd card will get that message.

1. Volume control bug, the window for volume control stays on the screen until you touch the screen elsewhere.

2. Now on tap works hilarious, doesn't show data properly

3. moto displays eats more battery, making it more sensitive . . . please get us back ambient display

4.Landscape mode bug, after playing games is evident

5.There is a notification light, please enable it in next release

6.Wifi battery draining is evident, even if the wifi is turned off.

7.Battery life has significantly dropped, in spite of doze mode.

8.RAM consumption has increased drastically, close to always 1.3GB being used.

9.Camera Shutter sound option has been removed

Camera shutter on/off option will return to your device after a few battery cycles. Many of us have gone through that.
[X Play General] Himalaya saxena:
battery life is not good on marshmallow getting almost 3 hours of sot.What about othere
[X Play General] maninder singh bali:
I haven't got camera shutter on/off option and it has been abt a more than a month.. I have also charged and discharged the device many times.
[X Play General] K.khiladi:
It will return magically back.
[X Play General] K.khiladi:
"Now on tap" is a work in progress so don't expect it to be accurate.

For wifi drain problem, turn off wifi scanning in location and also turn the "keep wifi on during sleep" to "never".

The average ram usage differs for every device. Mine is currently using 1gb. Moreover I have read somewhere that free ram is wasted ram in Android. Don't worry about ram. Phone will adjust accordingly.

The notification light you are talking about isn't actually a notification light. If it would be so, it wouldn't just glow up in white color.

For battery drain, let the phone go through some charging and discharging cycles.

Doze mode doesn't increase the battery life by reducing the power consumption. It just reduces the standby battery drain when phone is sleeping or at rest. It doesn't work actively all the time.

The ambient display that shows notifications in black and white. Don't know I got it back automatically. I don't use moto display.

Ehi guys, I’d like to let you know that I had some issues with Bluetooth and my Car Stereo Player, that I fixed in some way.

You probably know that in MM 6.0 there are some problems with Bluetooth connections, but they have been fixed in MM 6.0.1. In my case I was not able to connect very well my phone with car player: basically I got some connection drops or I was not able to take or answer calls. So, during the first connection with my car player I was asked to share my messages, if I did it I would get some crashes (Bluetooth connection switched On/OFF continuously until crash). So simply every time it asks me to share my messages, I don’t do it. I am not able to read messages on my car player, it doesn’t matter, never read it, but it’s the only way to be able to listen to streaming music and take/answer calls.

Hope to help someone.

For me what I think turning background data off does is just making other "things" eat the battery as much, if not even more. 10hrs since unplugging, 1h23m SOT, during these 10hrs I used Chrome for 12mins and Tapatalk for 7mins and that's it, since I have nothing else installed. WiFi scanning off, NFC off. The battery graph shows a steady descent, coz I really didn't use my phone much today...
