The water may just take several days to dry in the jack. Thankfully it's supposed to be water proof. Better use a mild cleaning agent, i use tft claner for almost any "sensible" applications,which will dry even under difficult conditions within minutes.

AEX Oreo 8.1 v.5.3/ Melina Kernel... qc 3.0 seems to work
[LG G6 Real Life Review] cory733:
My Nexus 6P charges much faster. My G6 also won't fast charge on direct USB C to USB C, which means my car charger that fast charged my Nexus 6P is useless and my direct USB C cord plugged into my motherboard also won't fast charge. This phone also loses charge while using Google Maps.

edit: used a different charger, and it charged fine with maps and bluetooth.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] lecorbusier:
It supports the original Quickcharge at 5v 2A instead of QC3 9v 1,8A. When the port lacks QC, there may be another fallback step at USB3 5v 0,9A,but this ain't good no more.

Use as a car satnav is quite demanding, so even with QC1 it may drain the battery, but shouldn't with QC3.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] XDA_RealLifeReview:
It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the LG G6 before depleting the battery.

Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!

6h 30min SOT

5h 47m SOT @ 29%
[LG G6 Real Life Review] vintagerock:
I'm on the AT&t version and the battery life is crap. I've been lucky to get 3.5 hours of SOT. My 2 year old One M9 gets about the same battery life. I'm hoping to AT&T releases an update to improve this because everyone on T-mo talking about 6 hours of SOT with like 40% remaining.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Spence2294:
Great sot without wifi

4 hours 3 mins sot 25% remaining . All on sprint LTE no wifi today with between 1/2 and full bars, usually full though. Insane coming from an s6 edge that would get maybe 2 hours before dying in the same conditions. Loving this phone. Very excited for kernels and ROMs to start hitting this phone
[LG G6 Real Life Review] mrj0087:
Have you been able to fix this? I'm also getting poor battery life.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] dantes5823:
almost 6 hours SOT?! i crack 5h even and it died as i hit that mark. Im assuming none of you guys are running the always on display? my other issue is at school service blows. I legit watched my phone bleed 12% battery in the course of one class.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] vintagerock:
I'm happy to report that I have, mostly. I took into the att store and they ran a diagnostic check on it and told me that the quickmemo app was hitting y processor pretty hard which is strange because I have never used it (it also doesn't show up under battery usage). It can't be disabled but I forced stopped it. When I did force stop it my ram usage dropped by like 10% so I don't know what the heck that app is doing. The odd thing is it will occasionally start up again and I have no idea why. I did open the app and set the capture+ action to be handled by gallery instead of quickmemo and there are no permissions set for it, so we'll see what that does. I'll be watching it closely.

The biggest culprit I believe was my outlook app was having a contact sync issue. Once I went on the app and fixed that issue my battery life has been great. I hit my phone hard yesterday to try it out and while I only had around 4 hours of SOT when the screen wasn't on I was listening to music (probably at least 4 hours of music playback). I downloaded apps from the playstore, surfed the web, streamed some videos, took photos and lot of other heavy uses and it made it from 6am to 6pm with 10% left before i plugged in. I was pretty impressed.

So I say mostly fixed it because fixing the outlook sync issues helped a great deal, but that quickmemo app could still cause a little drain and I can't figure out how to stop it. I'll keep an eye on it and report back.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] mrj0087:
This is great to hear. I did what some people recommended and did a factory reset, installing all apps "by hand". And force stopping the quickmemo app saved some ram/battery as well. Battery life and stand by seem a lot better. Not great, but better. Gonna see how it fairs in a few days. If it's still bad, might get a replacement. I'm hoping for an unlocked bootloader on this so I can debloat the damn thing. That would help a great deal with battery. Thanks.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] tserv95:
7 hours and 26 minutes so far with 48 percent remaining. Estimated time remaining is 6 hours and 11 minutes I've used it pretty heavily throughout the day and this is day one of using it on battery so I'm very very impressed.

---------- Post added at 09:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:05 PM ----------

On a side note I recommend not using always on display there's really no need for it and it's going to waste your battery life.

1st full charge. Coming from a corrupted battery nexus 6p with 2hrs of sot, this phone is so much better in any case
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Mjuksel:
Got mine in the mail yesterday, it was shipped with 40% juice. Had almost 3 hours of SOT on that :P

Let' see what my first charge will be like :)
[LG G6 Real Life Review] skyfox99:
The top three reasons for battery drain (with a non defective phone).

1. Screen on with full brightness.

2. Rogue application or data heavy application (email being a big one or apps that run on the background constantly).

3. Poor cell coverage area where phone is sucking up juice trying to stay connected to towers.

Best way to trouble shoot is to start with a 100% clean factory reset phone. Follow these steps

1. Reduce screen brightness as much as possible, using auto brightness helps, but you may have to adjust manually if it's at full ? in your location.

2. Don't install any applications at first. If your battery drain doesn't happen until after you install applications, then you'll need to figure out which one is the culprit.

3. Turn off the cell radio in poor coverage and see if that does anything. If your battery improves you know that's the issue. I know CDMA phones in poor coverage area suck the life out of a phone (Sprint and Verizon).

After that it's time to consider defective device.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] dantes5823:
Cell coverage i know is one reason while im in school. i swear that place has a jammer installed somewhere. with AOD ill watch the battery just drain itself. Im probably gonna do a factory reset today or tomorrow and see what comes of it.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] sionyboy:
End of day one with my H870DS: 18hr on battery, 5hr of SOT, phone is now standing at 2% (time to charge!)

This is with always on display, everything on sync, bluetooth & NFC on, High Accuracy location, google now feed on. I was battering the phone this morning installing and setting up all my apps, and I also had to configure a new PAYG SIM card so had several restarts.

Happy with this. I'm sure once my usage calms down I'll be easily getting to the end of my day.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] priyajitsaha:
can any one test this ?? playing clash of clan for 1 hr nd facebook for 45 minute nd some whatsapp youtube how much sot i can get with always on lte
[LG G6 Real Life Review] alex_mx:
This is the first time in 3 months (since I bought the phone) that I drain the battery from 100% to 0% and I'm pretty happy with the results... I have everything on, location set in High Accuracy, the only thing that I turned off is the location history from Google now.

Impressing
[LG G6 Real Life Review] bestofrhcp:
35% screen brightness. I use comfort view at night. Moderate videos. Moderate music and BT. 15% left here.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] EMJI79:
I just get between 3 and 4 hours sot. I have lost nearly one hour since I use automatic brightness which often takes brightness over 80%.

Still I would love to have as much as you guys.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] sionyboy:
Does anyone else find that it'll sit idle at a certain percentage for quite some time, but then as soon as you pick it up and interact it drops very quickly?

It's been sat on my desk for the past hour at 86%, then used it for no more than a minute and it dropped to 84%. Methinks its not reporting drain very accurately.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Killua96:
There is some problem with the battery monitor or with idle itself as phone idle is always one of the main cause of battery drain. LG said that there will be some improvement with the next update, will see when it will arrive.

As for your question specifically, yes, it happens to me also
[LG G6 Real Life Review] sionyboy:
Not just me then!

Yeah, phone idle is always in Top 2 of battery drain (it was my No. 1 yesterday). I'm used to it being either Screen/Android OS coming from a Samsung, so its a bit of a strange one to me, services must be being reported under Idle than Android OS/System etc...

Hopefully LG get an update to sort it soon (and hopefully allow us to schedule in Comfort View mode)
[LG G6 Real Life Review] sionyboy:
Day 3 and battery life has sort of fallen off the cliff. I had to plug in yesterday to top up at about 6pm. That was about 12hrs off charger, 2hrs of SOT.

Even my year old Note 5 made it a bit longer than that. And I got the G6 as I was hoping for better battery life. :/

I can't help but feel that I must live and work in two areas which have terrible mobile reception. I've turned off 4G today to see if 3G lasts me any longer.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Killua96:
Mobile Switching is really bad on this phone, Samsungs suffer less afaik.

Also I, at work, have a terrible mobile signal, had to force to 4g only because is the one with stronger signal lol
[LG G6 Real Life Review] sionyboy:
So sticking to 3g seems to have produced better results. Currently 12hrs off charger, 2hr30min SOT and I'm at 45%. Better.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Aid777:
I am seriously conidering gettiing this phone. I have the LG G3 and for a long while now, the battery is draining very fast (I got a new battery and it's still doing it). I had almost 50% drain over night the otehr day despite using Greenify. I cannot figure out what is causing it. Mostly use Fulmics and tried RR, then went back to Fulmics. Might give ViperOS a go later.

Has anyone rooted the G6, it seems a bit complicated. I must have a phone I can root!
[LG G6 Real Life Review] EMJI79:
Then you must buy European version of the G6.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] greye05:
How are you all getting so much sot, Im barely getting 3-4hrs
[LG G6 Real Life Review] EMJI79:

[LG G6 Real Life Review] ninjajoey:
Hi guys

I am getting poor screen on time, max 4 to 4:30 hours, I find that the Phone Idle is drawing way too much power at times. In 8 hours of Sleep I saw the phone drop 9 % to 12%. That's with AOD, LTE, WiFi all off.

I also find that my phone normal running temperature is in the range of 35-37deg C and while browsing Chrome and watching YouTube, it gets heated to 42deg C, I find gaming to be better at 39 to 40 max on games like asphalt. Using apps like YouTube and Facebook I find the phone to heat up.

I have disabled GPS, NFC, AOD, WiFi, location based WiFi and Bluetooth Scanning had also been turned off.

I actually use LTE for my internet usage, I switched to 3G as well but could not find a marginally better improvement.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Killua96:
There are problems with the phone idle since the G5.

Hope that with the next update they solved this thing...
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Koostis:
Light use, wifi/4g always on, some web surfing, viber, messenger, youtube, netflix, location off, bt off, nfc off, screen on 50%. Phone idle should not use more battery than the screen, right..?
[LG G6 Real Life Review] imkr1:
Mixed 4G and WiFi I would say. It's above average SOT.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] ilfavi:
Me too.

I'm quite disappointed :(
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Koostis:
Alright, somehow my battery life went from poor to one of the best I've ever had (maybe due to it being the 3rd charge or smth). Some gaming, wifi/4g always on, 4 account sync on, location for 3 hours and that's what I got:

Let's hope it keeps improving to the point the phone starts charging the wall
[LG G6 Real Life Review] aledex:
I turned off iZat hardare acceleration localization and wifi continuous localization, and now I seem to consume more. Why?

From 65% to 25%

---------- Post added at 05:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:39 PM ----------

IZat is supposed to help the battery.

Also is you wifi set to go off when the phone is sleep?
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Koostis:
How's the signal strength over there? Screen brightness? I get 4-5 hrs SoT with pretty similar settings

Factory reset is always a good way to go if reinstalling everything doesn't bother you :)
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Sid@developer:
Screen Brightness is around 40 to 60%...Auto is off...Signal Reception is good...
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Koostis:
You should be getting a little more juice out of it then (yesterday got 5hrs SoT over 18hrs of use with pretty much identical settings). I'd say try factory reset and set up as new
[LG G6 Real Life Review] mehdi.agsi:

thanks a lot

now can you answer my next question please :o :

I want to buy some new phone and my choice is one of LG G6 and the Mate 9

I want +7 hour SOT with use just some app like instagram and whatsapp . . .

and i want a realy good camera too

i love some function on mate 9 like bokeh and . . . but wide angle on G6 is good too

please give me some guide
[LG G6 Real Life Review] TheWolfSVK:
Go for the G6 because the system on Mate 9 is ****ty I had mate 9 before but returned it and bought the G6
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Kaleidosc0pe:
I had the Mate 8 and now the LG G6 (different devices between them).

The Batterylife is much better on Mate. Compared to the other features, i would give the win to LG G6.

The battery is good on the LG G6 but you will never reach 7 hours SoT.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Jeremiah Bonds:
Some actually have. It's rare but a friend of mine got 8 hours on his.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] imkr1:
Yes he can if he use minimum brightness with Wi-Fi only..
[LG G6 Real Life Review] murok9042:
WTF???

I get around 5,5 to 6h on SOT. Did he use some tricks to have better SOT?
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Jostian:
I got just over 7 SoT on a few occasions, with auto brightness and WiFi on, in general its about 6 hours depending on use though. But I use Greenify and Doze to shut down most things while screen off.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] browy:
I have auto-brightness enable and since I have the prepaid sim card I never want to enable mobile data, with this I got more than 7 hours sot.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Inm8:
All stock.. Although I have the unlucky h870k. ? Tried to disable things I don't use. & I agree, the Facebook app is a battery killer. It was so bad on my S5 so I'm used to using the mobile site now.

Background data is also restricted.

Things like Snapchat as well as some disabled apps have location & other permissions disabled to prevent apps trying to find filters and whatnot based off my location for example.

I hope that's what you were meaning by rom info haha ?
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Jostian:
I uninstalled Facebook and disabled facebook app manager in apps, then downloaded Facebook lite app, which offers a lot but at 90% less battery...
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Jeremiah Bonds:
I got 8 a few times, just seeing if I can. Haha it's not normal, but greenify was a big part of it.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] ibila:
Stock...no root. After a week of use...not unhappy with it.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Jeremiah Bonds:
Just for the sake of conversation, I ended up with 10 hours of screen time today... But as we all know, screen on time isn't everything..

Well just because I don't use my phone that much that it's on standby for almost 2 days. I usually got around 6 and a half hours of sot within 24 hours.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Jeremiah Bonds:
Even if your phone idle only uses 2 percent, but your phone is at 98% over 16 hours.. What do you think will be at the top?
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Killua96:
So... 99% of smartphone count phone idle too low and LGs are perfect in this?

Really, S7 Edge and S8+ didn't have this problem, nor the G4, it all started with the G5.

Want proves that there is something wrong? Here they are:

So you are telling that on 13 hours of usage, with almost 2 hours of sot (so 11 hours of standby) is normal that the phone idle drain more than 50% compared to sot? If it is then why other phone doesn't have this stat so high in their battery settings? Just wondering...
[LG G6 Real Life Review] xlr8me:
I think this could be world record for lg G6 and i still have26% battery left.

[LG G6 Real Life Review] ben cherian:
For those who complain about battery life of G6, Here is a short view

9am-5pm continuous voice recording with 1 hour break in between

Around 10-15 camera clicks

Browsing use BRAVE browser, disable chrome for better life. Use BRAVE browser which is based on same chrome platform but more efficient.- 2hours

Facebook app used 40min around

Twitter sometime

WhatsApp for around 2hours

Screen brightness between 35~50%

Two sim cards, one on 4g LTE

Screen on time 6hours 10minutes

Remaining battery-20%

How did you do it?
[LG G6 Real Life Review] xlr8me:
As you can see again today, 20% battery use now at 81%, 2hr SOT.

So I should be good for another 10hr SOT.

LG - life's great...
[LG G6 Real Life Review] sojkin:
I see. But what is your setup? What have you disabled or installed to get so long sot?
[LG G6 Real Life Review] xlr8me:
Everything is default.

The location setting is wifi

Auto screen brightness.

The phone battery gets better with time.

I use qc3 charger to charge battery.

Good luck
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Erpinoob:
The huge difference in SOT is because he uses the phone without SIM card. Cellular signal represents a considerable drain in every phone.

[LG G6 Real Life Review] Jeremiah Bonds:
I got 10 hours of screen time the other day as well.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] dannejanne:
10 hours is achievable if you work for it. Just using it normally can give you 6-8 hours but if you start being cheap with stuff you can surely push it up to ten. But that would involve a lot of reading and lower screen brightness for sure. It's just not representable for normal use in daylight scenarios.
[LG G6 Real Life Review] Killua96:
Count also that until they don't show the graphic they could also charge the phone as this doesn't reset the phone statistics if not charged much

[LG G6 Real Life Review] aledex:
At the moment I'm at 4h SoT @ 29%, always under wifi, after 21h. Sadly I'm under low 4G coverage so I think it could affect battery life, in fact I have 20% display consumption ad 21% idle phone usage. But all in all it seems good.

[LG G6 Real Life Review] xphyle1971:
I call BULL$HIT. I get 3 to 4 HRS SOT max (G600K), and I'm no stranger to optimizing an android handset to maximize the battery. Further, you can check youtube for some popular android websites doing 6 month follow up reviews for the LG G6 (Android Central, Android Authority, etc) and in 3 of the reviews I watched they complained about battery life of the device saying they only could get about 3 to 3.5 hours of SOT before needing to plug in and recharge.

Now, it's possible that the G600K (Korean) variant has some issues (kernel variation, carrier bloat, etc) that is causing the poor battery life, but whatever the case may be, all LG G6 variants are NOT created equal. It may also be that I'm using the Korean variant in the USA on T-Mobile, but I don't think that's the issue since the aforementioned Youtube reviewers (respected and popular android websites) were experiencing the same issues.
