Help Weird Battery Life

[mcwhopper96]

I have a weird issue with the battery in my lg volt. Every other day, the battery life is terrible. I use my phone about the same amount everyday. One day I will have 45-50% at 11 pm, and the next day, my phone will be dead by 6 or 7 pm. This pattern cycles every other day. It's been happening for a few weeks now. I charge my phone every night when I go to bed. I have no clue what the problem might be. Any help would be appreciated!

Have you checked in Settings under Battery to see what's eating the majority of your battery life? It's a good place to start in order to know what might need to be fixed.

If you take a look and post the results, someone will probably be able to help give some ideas on what to do next.

From the look of it, it seems to be cell standby is taking up 62% of the battery

The phone constantly hunting for a 4G connection can possibly do this. If you have your Network Mode set to LTE/CDMA you might want to change it to CDMA and see if the battery continues to drain at the same rate.
