Help Android 10 bluetooth drain

[stuarta]

Anybody else noticed a battery drain on bluetooth with Android 10? I noticed yesterday that my phone dropped from 100 to 92 after a 5 minute drive with my car kit connected, and then the same again this morning. Phone isn't doing anything else, it's in my pocket, and just the car kit connecting up.

hi - yes defo noticed that the pix2 is heavy on juice when using bt in the car ....cant recall if it was different before a10 tho

Although randomly, I had the phone on charge in my car lunchtime (for about 10mins) after it dropped to 62%. Got out the car at 2pm and it was still showing 62% so I thought damn it's not charging. It's now 4.40pm and it's still showing 62% so I'm thinking something is stuck

yes that does sound a bit suspect ....i found mine uses more juice if bt is on but not connected ... ie looking for connection

It's dropped to 58% now after a couple of texts

mmm that is poor ... maybe it needs a factory reset? :/

Think it is confused because I'm currently sat here with no WiFi or data on but I have internet.....magic
