Guess Jio Sim didn't like not being number 1 & was constantly searching for network draining my battery like hell. I deactivated Slot 2 and Voila.....my battery is now back to normal...
Much relieved and Loving my G5 again.....happy photoing...

Been using my G5 a week now and compared to my HTC 10 which I have owned 5 months I really much prefer the G5 it has brilliant battery life and I haven't had any reboots or software glitches at all and it seems just as fast as my HTC plus knowing I can replace the battery gives great peace of mind as well.
Is it me or is sliding the battery in like reloading a gun,it's great to hear the click at the end.

Post update from service centre... moreyup! been there ,done that already,i guess you are late to the party!LOL ,btw I am Already using my Lg g5 along with jio sim volte and my 11 years old tata docomo sim as dual standby from almost a month now.And guess what? i also have a 128gb sd card installed with all those goodies of dual sim card modified my sim tery myself! Recently got the Slimport HDMI TV out adapter for full hd 1080p at 60hz connection using it on my 42 inch lg 3d tv btw the slimport adapter i have can also support 4k tvs .i use several bluetooth gaming controllers and gaming emulators on android to make use of it.I can play most modern games along retro games on android on my big screen through my lg g5 All of this becomes so much easier with the pretty cheap extra battery and a cradle and btw its all abt setup and try and error ,its a bit complicated initially but later becomes piece of cake :) and enjoy ur lg g5..cheers.

AnonD-347828, 09 Dec 2016V10k adds VoLTE support , I am using JIO now without an issue. Post update from service centre... moreWhat is V10K? I googled it and got nothing. Could you possibly mean "H85020VA" firmware (Nov 1st 2016)? I bought my G5 today and as soon as I gave it WPA2 key to my 10 megabit ADSL, that hungry b**** started downloading over 1GB of updates (couple of 100MB files and then two ~500MB update files). I am still on Android 6.0.1 despite all this downloading. I don't get it, maybe it's because I haven't inserted my nano sim yet (i don't have one tbh - will have to sort it out). Would be great to update to Nougat 7.0 before 25dec2016.

Vaibhav U, 07 Dec 2016G5 Users...Help Needed..Urgent Yesterday I updated to the September software rolled in Indi... moreThat is difficult. Go to theauthorised service centre and ask for battery replacement. Before replacing the battery, note down the serial number of the current battery. Thats all you can do. If they refuse, just sell it online for less amount and buy Samsung S7 edge. If you are ok with mid range phone, buy Samsung Onnxt. I am sure it will suit you eventhough it does not have removable battery.
