I have visited this forum many times to get answers to Android issues. I never registered because I could get answers from just searching threads.
I received my N5 last week and the battery life is awful. I have reduced screen time out, lowered brightness, tried battery guru, turned off wifi, etc.
After 13 hours off the charger, I have 6% battery left.
Voice calls used 34% of battery for 45 minutes of calls.
Screen time 17% for 35 minutes of screen time with approx 20% of brightness bar.
Phone idle for 11 hours used 9%.
Chrome for 6 min 8%.
Wifi 8 hours 7%.
Android OS, cell standby, Android system, google dailer, and media server used the other 25% of the battery.
I have google calendar, and two gmail accounts that sync 15 days. I get about 100 emails per day.
Am I doing something wrong? Do I have a bad battery? My prior phone was a Note 2. The battey with heavier use woukd have 40% at the end of the day.
This phone is much better for me than the Note 2. I really want it to work for me, but need more battery.
Thank you in advance for any help you can give. I really appreciate it and this forum.
