Hi,
i'm experiencing seriuos issue about battery, it's being constantly drained by cell standby with abnormal values. It's actually draining more than the display, that's unacceptable.
Can you please provide a fix/solution ?

woody.wwHi Woody, i did that specific test and i can confirm that forcing network to 2G/3G makes a big difference over 2G/3G/4G. I never tried 5G because my network provider does not support it yet. Of course it was just for the sake of testing, it's clear that a device without 4G access is useless.https://zentalk.asus.com/en/discussion/comment/176412#Comment_176412
Seems like things have been improved over the last month. Back then even airplane mode drained mobile network standby. Now, as you can see below, there's no drain there. 3% over 9 hours -> 0.33%/hour. The 3% comes almost only from "phone standby", which sounds reasonable (although doesn't match the 0% from my previous phones).
Looks like in my case there's no issue at all (especcialy compared to what @Salvatore is getting 😕 ).
Next things I will test is just disable wifi/mobile data over night. No flight mode as I want to be available for messages/calls. Another test I can do after that is changing the preferred network type from 2G/3G/4G/5G to 2G/3G/4G or even 2G/3G.

Just for reference / comparison I'm attaching stats from a phone I've been using for 4 years, a oneplus 3t.
It's currently running a LOS 18.1 based custom rom with partial micro-g (unifiednlp and things). Last I saw some app showed the equivalent battery capacity of the phone was 2000 something mah, was few months back. But I guess it's ok. The ambient temperature (room temp) was around 33 degree Celsius according to a dht22 sensor and one more sensor. The battery app I had just installed and so the stats on that app about the run time is not correct.
The phone is connected to wifi on 2.4ghz and to mobile network on 4g. We do not have a 3g fallback which was phased out about more than a year back. So it's just Volte all the time I guess (Can be put to use 2g tho) but as for the test it's connected to 4g Volte. Haven't been travelling around with the phone either and signal strength for the tower it was connected at the time of writing is about -105dBm 35 asu (as shown in settings). The phone was last charged at night and has been discharging over night and beyond.
And molly since the absence of firebase is using websocket for getting notification and so if i'm right is supposed to use more battery compared to when using firebase ( maybe it's just really well optimized while using websockets too now coz I think that's a very reasonable battery usage but the system battery optimization for that app is turned off to keep the notifications coming)
And just for the sake of taking a poke in way and no offence intended (just for the laughs I guess) the los 18.1 based rom running on the phone is on the July security patch. ( Rom current version build date 13 July with the july 5, 2021 security patch)
