Reviving this bug based on recent anecdotal reports that battery life has degraded
Folks who experience it can do several things to provide data: 1 - check the battery page in settings and see the battery level history, for example did it discharge overnight 2 - provide the syslog which will show whether the system is properly suspending 3 - install suspend-blocker on your desktop sudo add-apt-repository ppa:colin-king/white sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install suspend-blocker Copy the syslog from the phone adb pull /var/log/syslog and run the command suspend-blocker -b -r -H < syslog -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Touch seeded packages, which is subscribed to powerd in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1372413 Title: Extensive battery drain on RTM Status in powerd package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: Mako, RTM 1 Since upgrading to RTM the battery life is really poor. What used to be a battery drain of 5-10% per hour (which is still high) is now 10-15% per hour. Sometimes the phone runs really hot, so there seem to be something going on in the background that is consuming power. I mostly have bluetooth, GPS (which isn't always working), wifi and cellular on, but that's no difference from when I was running 'devel- proposed' with MultiROM with much less battery consumption. As an example, I started with a full charge at 7am. After some web surfing (<15 mins) and watching a couple of youtube videos (on wifi) battery was down to 66% at 9:15. That's 34% in just over two hours! I recharged again before lunch and had the phone idle until coming back 1 hour and 45 mins later to find only 75% of battery left, this time without the phone running particularly hot.
