It's bad if you do that each time about five hundred times. Nothing will happen if you do a test. And we can swap batteries anyway so its not a problem. It's interesting you're looking at the V20 as i consider the V20 an up to date Note 4. Without a stylus.

Now if i give you a figure, for it to have any meaning, implies you should have a good chance of replicating it otherwise its meaningless. And the way to do that is under the conditions i mentioned. Now you have a baseline. Important.

4-5h is what you can expect. In my books this is average to ok. But swap the second in and it becomes 8-10h. If phone is your only computer this will get you there. The V30 with 835 will do 6-7h SOT under the same conditions. These are conservative figures and under heavy use. heavy use is simply defined as kill the phone in under 10-12h.

Heavy use gets the most SOT as drain is less important. Wifi means results are more consistent than with data. Brightness is the only variable left. So when i look for SOT its under those conditions mostly with any phone. Do whatever you want, so long as it isn't very niche like recording 4k non stop or playing nova non-stop.

I found your figures for the Note 4 to be on the low side, because I don't know under what conditions you got the figure you quoted. In fact i find these battery threads to be useless as you have many people testing the phone under different conditions that aren't mentioned.

As are benchmarks, have to use the phone, go tap, tap. Kill it in 12h down to 5%. A few times so you get something consistent. Its manual labour. And this why reviewers do a lousy job at it.

There is just one

guy

i refer to to get useful info on this subject. He hasn't tested the phones in question but what matters is the way the testing is done. You get an idea of what to expect. Without even using the phone ;)
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
What is the manufacture date of the new battery ?

The only difference i notice is the voltage levels drop less

============
Battery Info ([COLOR="Red"]old battery[/COLOR])
============
Level lost [%]: Bat.: -37%(90% to 53%) [3.7%/h]
Voltage lost [mV]: (4107-3759) [[COLOR="Red"]35.2%/h[/COLOR]]

============
Battery Info ([COLOR="Red"]old battery[/COLOR])
============
Level lost [%]: Bat.: -20%(90% to 70%) [3.4%/h]
Voltage lost [mV]: (4137-3845) [[COLOR="Red"]49.7%/h[/COLOR]]

============
Battery Info ([B]new battery[/B])
============
Level lost [%]: Bat.: -19%(85% to 66%) [[COLOR="Red"]2.6%/h[/COLOR]]
Voltage lost [mV]: (4086-3986) [[B]13.7%/h[/B]]

But it does not translate into normal drain just less drain. At least we can say your new battery is ok, it behaves like new.

I can tell you what to do to get rid of mlt but i doubt it will make much difference. Only one wake up in 7h19 does not create 2.6%/h drain

Under the conditions your phone should be draining < 0.5/h but its at 2.6%/h

All this time you have been testing with airplane mode on.

Can you do a test with wifi on. Let's see if it makes a difference.

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] imeem:
thanks. so i ran the battery benchmark for 1 run and i got 3 hrs and 40 mins (vs. 4 h 18 min on the site) . This was run on auto brightness set to the lowest, wifi on, data off, phone charged until 100% (benchmarks ends when phone reaches 20% it said), and on a 2 year old battery (with 70% health according to AccuBattery). android 5.1.1.

so for my phone personally, it seems to range from understating to accurate enough to gauge the sot. Hope it's accurate for the LG V20 too!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
If you are not tapping the phone these benchmarks that run with the phone sitting there mean nothing. Did you not grasp a single thing i said ?

Use the bloody thing, and kill it in 12h
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] amirhosseinakb:
My dear friend, I just contacted LG service and they caviled the physical appearance of the charging port and refused to accept the phone's guarantee. One of them but tell me it is more likely to malfunctioning of motherboard be sides of port . Do you think that damage on port may cause draining? As you know this port could act as charging and in contrast for power sourcing of devices like otg...so it has the entrance of charge and decharge from sight of design function.

There is 1 year of warranty expiration time and I have to decide to break it and give the phone to third party fixer to change port or wait to later year (may be another problem happens that makes me to use warranty like camera issue, and so on) and when it nears to expire change the port by third party fixer. What do you think?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
I don't know. How did that port get damaged like that ?

Its as if some one forced a microusb cable in there

What i wanted t see what the drain would be like with wifi on. Since you did not do it. Then the last option is to factory reset. Refuse any update and do an idle test. No more safe mode!, a full factory reset.

So are you ready to do a factory reset and test ?

After one bloody month let's get some conclusion to this story
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] amirhosseinakb:
It's not possible any other cable be used for charging . I think it may be happened when I had plugged the phone into the charger and it damaged during my sleeping like falling from bed or something else... I don't know really.

By WiFi on, I can't test the bbs because some notifications arise and screen turns on. I did it and couldn't take report from screen off to on.

I think factory reset don't help us but tonight I do that and tomorrow morning will give you full log report of system and its battery figures.

Thanks.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
ok that would explain it

I didn't understand why changing this port might help. I have no idea that it will

Ah, different settings on bbs will be necessary for this

Why do you think factory reset will not help. Have you done it before and saw no improvement ?

it's the only test i can think of that can indicate whether or not this is a software problem or not. Do not install any updates from LG and no apps either.

Only bbs and set it up wth adb etc like last time, i think you are more familiar with it now
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] amirhosseinakb:
thank you , here is a test results based on logreport of android and after factory reset .no update.no wifi. airplane mode.

battery goes from 95% to 75% = 20% drain

i didn't install BBS n this test.just pure LG OS !
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
I'm out of ideas. Changed battery didn't make a difference neither did doing a full reset. There is no software problem here. There is no OS problem

There is a hardware problem. There are many sensors. But no clues offered by BBS. You tried with fingerprint sensor disabled. No differernce

Now where do you go ?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] amirhosseinakb:
I do not have the idea, like you. There is no problem in charging port when connecting it to a computer or charging process, except i found that when I turn off the second screen, the phone will be charged faster.

i'm so disappointed and don't know what can i do.

if i decide to change the phone which model of which brand do you mind to buy?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
When did this draining problem start, do you remember ?

Did it happen after the port got damaged, before that or after

Anything you can remember that happened to the phone and this drain problem beginning

The same one again ? if you want replaceable battery. Cheaper than the V30 or plus

My V20 is just over three months old now. i hope to use it for many years. Some people are even buying a second V20 just to have as a backup
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] amirhosseinakb:
very difficult question because i don't remember exactly .i'm surprised why my charger port is damaged.it may be happened during my sleeping time or somewhat i don't remember it. But the failure time can coincide with this.

the solution relies on the electronic test of the mainboard to detect current leakage location. you know, there are standard tests to detect the failure in electronics using a power supply.but i my city i don't know who is validated electronics expert.i have to look for it.

i can't imagine shopping of LG brand at all. the experience of LG is so bad for me.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
Ah, some important clues could be had here

An interesting idea. Do follow it up and post your findings. So we discover the answer to this riddle.

Depends what is important for you in a phone.

thanks but 2 times i have done that before for calibration of battery.

as you know i used spare battery but not rrsult is gained.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Hollowpoint:
Got this Phone like a month ago. Like it overall, but I have a weird battery drain in standby. The Phone loses 15% overnight easily... And the built-in battery monitor says that "Phone inactive" uses the most battery... I'm getting +/- 3 hours of SOT without heavy use, only WiFi or 4g. Any suggestions what is up?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
Do you have access to a PC with adb ?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] MikusP:
What would you suggest to block on the V20?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] partyman66:
Me too. Got it like a week and a half ago. Im rooted and on a stock rom but with a lot of stuff disabled. My idle drain has gotten better as i've found more things to disable that were causing losses but uts still not acceptable.

I have all of the standard android settings configured for good battery life and tons of customuzation on top of that with root capabilities and 3C system tuner. Android system keeps hogging a ton of battery.

I noticed "LGE Significant motion Detector Sensor" has a ton of runtime in Android System according to GSAM but im not sure how to stop that.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] One Twelve:
Before blocking BBS is required to identify what is draining the phone in standby

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] woldranger:
Well this is a little worrying as I'd pretty much decided to bite the bullet on a used V20, but if a lot of you guys are having major battery issues then I might have to have a rethink. The V20 is my last hope for a phone with a removable battery....

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] jrwingate6:
I am very impressed so far. Just as good as my S7E battery. I actually think the V20 has better standby stats. I left my phone unplugged last night for about 7 hours. It only drained 1%.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] *Omnipresent*:
DOH! My bad. That makes your SOT even more impressive:good:
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] PsiPhiDan:
I'm loving the battery so far. Might even need to buy a spare. Between the long endurance and the quick charge, it's almost pointless to buy one, honestly. This is fantastic!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] chavist:
I'm not sure what I've missed with the battery have been running the device for 3 days now averaging just over 13 hours after being on wifi. Think I'm going to factory wipe and re-setup device.

Not bad. I woke up at 8 am. . I did some photos, videos, i watched 1080p videos at full brightness, tested bluetooth for 1 hour, played music for 1 hour (shower time LOL) (Loud speakers). and all my apps up and running (synchronizing every once in a while.) A Full day without charging.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] vinyl3131:
Better than expected

I thought I'd toss my experience in the mix.

I've been using my V20 since Oct 19th. There does seem to be a day to let it settle in. Battery life was not great the first day or so but after that have been seeing impressive battery life.

I'd only had one other LG and that was the G3. Didn't like that phone at all. Terrible battery, crappy dim drab display and it always ran really hot.

The V20 suffers from none of those. In fact, quite opposite. Great display, great battery life, runs snappy and cool. I'm def diggin it!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] jrwingate6:
Today was the first day I heavily used my V20. I took it off the charger at 6AM this morning. Went golfing and ran a GPS range finder app for roughly 4 hours. Then I listened to about 2 hours worth of podcasts. On top of using Bluetooth and GPS in the background today for 6 hours total, I still managed to pull 5 hours of SOT. I believe I could have gotten another hour had I exited the GPS range finder. I just looked and the app appeared to still be running in the background all day and all night.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] accordingtoome:
First day of solid , heavy use... 7am 100 percent, by 4 I was looking for the charger
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] jinkerz9430:
Today

Still have 28% left
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] rushless:
Battery life is so subjective. Key is to compare to your own previous device. Comparing to others is entertaining, but little value.

I know with my medium to heavish use, my Note 4 with MM and new battery gets 5 hours SOT, my Note 7 got 5.5 and the MXPE got 4. I'm expecting 4.5 for the V20.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] nicholb:
My last 4 phones have been Galaxy s7 Edge, Note7 v1, S7 Edge (loaner), and Note 7 v2. My typical EOD battery on the S7 Edges was about 50%. The Notes were about 40-50%. Same typical usage, same apps installed I have yet to make a full day without recharging my V20.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] CHH2:
Took my V20 and Nexus 6 off the chargers this morning. The V20 has a SIM card in it while the Nexus 6 is in airplane mode with no card. The Nexus 6 even spent a couple of hours off. Just got back from lunch and both read 86% and I've been playing with the V20 as much as my meeting schedule allows today.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] howdyace:
What battery app is that?
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] jinkerz9430:
Accubattery :cool::good:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.digibites.accubattery

Ahh! This is the app that gets the most accurate estimated from your battery. I'm even considering to pay for the pro version because it is that good. They deserve it. When i was doing the test for the 1440p video it gave me the exact time when my phone would run out of energy. Sure, the results changes when you change from apps and do something different , it adjust to your current usage.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] bayniner:
Hey guys i am happy to report that on day 5 with my V20 i got amazing battery almost 8 hours of SOT
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] nicholb:
I am getting much better battery life today. For the 1st week I was down in the 40% range by noon. Today I am at 80%. The two things that happened last night that might affect it are:

1. There was an LG update to the "Home" launcher that installed last night.

2. I shut off Facebook notifications (realized I had not done that yet).
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] rushless:
Based on your usage, it does not look like you did much to tax the battery. Boat browser even is low resource. I would expect long SOT for little apps use too :)
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Tidbits:
Here's mine. 6 hours SOT and 5 Hours of calls. 13 hours total before I plugged in. Better than a lot of devices I have owned.

Go to about phone and software updates should be there and download something called LG world is basically the same concept
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] nicholb:
It is similar to the Galaxy app store but in settings. It is set to auto update by default. Go to settings/general/About phone/Update center/App updates.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] Nick281051:
These don't exist on the at&t version. You have to download smart world separately.
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] nicholb:
Looks like neither one of those was it. Back to the higher battery use today and a warm phone. It must be some app causing it. Just a matter of tracking it down or waiting for it to be updated.

Another battery/charging related thing I've noticed is it looses charge while running Android Auto. On my previous phones they would slowly gain charge even when streaming Play Music and using Google Maps. My V20 is loosing about 10% per 30 minutes.

(for those not familiar with Android Auto, the phone is connected to the USB port of the car while in use)

[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] planetbeen:
Here's my first full day of usage. No work today so I spent a lot of time playing with the phone. I'm happy. It got me through a full day without worrying. By the time it was low enough to make me nervous I was home and charging wouldn't be an issue.

My use today was a couple long calls and a whole bunch of browsing. Also probably about an hour streaming music from the Amazon music app.

A moderate day for me.

My brightness was set to auto for all but about the last hour when I turned it down because it was too bright. Then of course at 5% it kindly turned itself to 0% for me. :silly:

I'm used to a zerolemon battery which means I tend to use the heck out of my phone with no concern about battery conservation so not having an extra yet makes me nervous!
[LG V20 Guides, News, & Discussion] masondoctorjt:
This is still on the same charge as my last couple of screenshots. Also this is the first charge, the battery hasn't even been cycled yet! Compared to my V10, this battery might as well be a 6000 mah battery!
