Huge battery drain with Marshmallow. Android OS never lets phone sleep

Hii all

I have had this problem with Lollipop on my Xperia Z5, but it is now still present on my phone after I updated to marshmallow.

My phone has very huge battery drain, with the battery bairly lasting my a full day. Android OS is almost always one of the highest consumers and is constantly keeping the phone awake. I usually get 2-3 hours SOT from a full charge.

I also find that my cell standby consumes alot of battery and I have the mobile radio active bug that consumes battery too.

Can anyone please help?

Do i have a faulty phone, since these issues carried over from lollipop into marshmallow? It actulally very poor from Sony to sell a phone for $999AUD and advertise it as having 2 days battery life, when the battery barley lasts a single day with light usage.

Any suggestions would be greatly welcomed because I am nearing my wits end with this phone.

Was there ever a fix to this issue? Sony Support made one small suggestion about using safe mode and then didn't come back
