    As you can see from the graph, my phone's battery randomly drained for a little over an hour. I would like to figure out why. I got no messages or notifications between 8:13 and 9:15. I was sleeping during this time.

    You probably arent going to find out unless it keeps happening. A reboot could fix the problem for good even. Do you have any sideloaded apps? Those would be what i check first

    Down load this program and close off any application that you don't want running or don't recognize

    This is more for android type apps
    See if this helps

    I had the same thing happen but for about 3 or 4 hours. I was wondering if I was sleep talking. Never figured it out.

    Anyways, I was having battery draining issues for months until OS 4633. Now the battery is fantastic. 36 hrs.

    I only have snap chat side loaded and that doesn't run in the background. Task manager won't say anything is running. I guess I was secretly hoping that there is some other background process that jumps out to someone based on the 90 minutes it seemed to be on.

    This happened the night before so I am going to leave my phone off the charger from now on at night to see if I can find any trends.

    In the last couple of days I've had a sudden full drain over night. I charged to full and then no juice at all with phone in sleep mode over night. Prior to this I'd had some drain but not to 0.

    Weird. Running VZW z10 OS 10.1

    This happened to my GF last weekend as well. She pulled the phone off charge at around 11 PM. She uses her phone for alarm every day. At 630 am she woke in a panic, no alarm. Phone off dead. She claims nothing was running
    I have also had periodic battery drain.

    It happens from time to time. I've had very similar events showing on Battery Guru and had to scratch my head as my battery was at 80% going to bed on Wifi and with very few notifications it was dead in the morning.

    This was last night's graph. As you can tell I don't sleep normal hours.


    Attachment 192625 Random decline around 6am. 8am is my alarm going off because I had to wake up for 5 minutes to do something.

    Ignore the vertical graph if it's there, accidentally posted it, but on my phone and having trouble to delete.

    I can say with confidence that when I open 9gag for 2min and close it.... my battery goes for the full drain. when I don't open 9gag, battery usage is normal.

    I posted earlier about my GF z10 draining overnight, well it happened to me last night. I don't have a guru shot although I do have it. I unplugged my z10 from the truck at 12am. It charged for about 1.5 hours. At 9 am I awoke to a completely dead phone. All I did before bed was a quick game of candy crush. Cleared with task manager and went to bed. I'm telling you I can't have this happening when I use my phone as a alarm. Good thing I was off today. Tonight I will run guru.

    I'm thinking this phone really hates searching for signals. I was in an old town today, and I actually only had gprs service. It mauled my battery, big time. I was better off on 4g lte.

    No, there's at least 2 of us.
    I like to start the day with a full charge, no matter what I'm expecting to do...

    Just have to roll over to the right charging cable on night stand.

    Tracking down random battery drain on my Z10-img_00000116.png So the night before last night I had to do something early so I left it charging. It happened again last night though. I still can't discern any pattern to its behavior.

    Unfortunately, unlike Android, BB10 has no robust tools to help anyone with battery consumption or wake lock problems. You could try to find the problem but most likely you'll just be a chicken running around without a head hoping you'll by chance find your precious egg. It's really what it will be like.

    The only thing you can really do is look at the obvious like signal strength.. Synced accounts... And maybe some android apps as they can run in the background. Still wandering blind though.
