I first installed amonRA recovery. rebooted. Installed the img for all of the wimax, etc. Rebooted and then deleted off my sdcard. Boot into recovery- cleared cache and dalvik cache twice. Insallted gps 1.1drivers, and then fix mismatches. Rebooted. Charged to 100% clear battery stats and rebooted. Then I used my phone as normal, called a few times, used gps, texts and ran it down to 0 till it shut off. Currently charging again.
[EVO 4G Android Development] Sean-El:
You flashed the GPS fix, the 1st one? I did the 1st set of instructions and then charged overnight and used it a little this morning and all of the And usage went away. What rom are you on? Also, did the prl and other update work?
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlazinThat:
So after trying this wake lock fix, my wimax broke. The fix worked for about 6 hours then android system was back at 78% and now wimax back ups wont work either. Any ideas?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tlxxxsracer:
Im running MIUI 1.8.26. I updated my profile and prl and no difference. I flashed the phone.zip and put the different sensor file and still my system is showing 46%.

I may try going to the latest radios and such to give them a try.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tlxxxsracer:
The phone.zip broke my phone. Not able to make or receive calls. FC's
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowspeed:
Just reflash the rom or redownload phone.zip and try again ?
[EVO 4G Android Development] sbradymobile:
That version is only for aosp, and it doesn't really do anything noticeable. I just posted it for testing purposes so there is not any reason to bother with it or the other fixes in this thread.
[EVO 4G Android Development] tlxxxsracer:
Im running MIUI
[EVO 4G Android Development] b0tes:
So at the end of the day, none of the fixes in the OP really work to remove the wakelock?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
not true. The fixed dialer and the proximity sensor fix takes care of the wake lock issue.

I don't give a crApple what you think!
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
I don't give a crApple what you think!
[EVO 4G Android Development] b0tes:
Is anyone else getting FCs from flashing the phone.zip using MIUI?

I wiped d/c, flashed the phone.zip, but when I try to make a call, I get a FC.

Tried rebooting even.

Should I be flashing the entire phone.zip from recovery or should I extract the phone.apk and push it in via ADB or root explorer?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tlxxxsracer:
I am! I flashed it yesterday and couldnt receive or makes calls. I tried wiping cache and dalvik and fixing mismatches and permissions. Had to restore to my backup.

Neither of them fixed mine.. I still have a solid "wake" in battery stats and 46% of android system there.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
terminal emulator su, dump sys power after a phone call. Your wakelocks and mpokelocks will say 0. Android system usage at 46 is not abnormal. The longer you're screen is on, the higher the usage goes. Battery stats are often misleading. Some apps need wakelocks to be on while active. The problem is when they are not released after usage. Reboot your phone and wipe cache/dalvik. Your awake goes off when your screen is off for a bit. the prox sensor fix is not something you flash. The dialer fix is. The fixed dialer is not known to cause fc issues or any other on a aosp dialer which is what we are talking about. It causes locks to be released after the call has hung up and nothing more. Your problem lies elsewhere.

ropodope

I don't give a crApple what you think!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tlxxxsracer:
right I understand that you dont flash the prox sensor. I read the instructions :rolleyes: I even have lost GPS after the sensors and restored even to the back up, checked the RW R R and rebooted and nothing.

At times I do check the dumpsys power and occasionally I get a wakelock or pokelock.

I check both spare parts, battery monitor widget and battery stats in settings and all are pretty consistent. At work i have the screen off about 85% of the time and it still drains battery. I have the phone plugged to charge and it looses a % or so if I use it occasionally, which I can only think is the wakelock because if it really slept then itd charge more than it does.

Im sure your fixes have helped other people, but for me theyve only caused problems. I appreciate your effort and assistance to others but its not for my phone.

Edit: But if my phone app FC's every time i try and dial out or receive a call, i will certainly try other methods.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
Actually those fixes have helped everyone. The latest miui update has caused certain calling problems which are known. You may want to check the forums. There are easily a dozen different reasons for your system usage problems, these two fixes are not your issue.

if you think those fixes are your problem they are easily reversible without doing a nandroid.

[EVO 4G Android Development] eavs2009:
Download set CPU. Make a profile for screen off and set it Max to about 692 and min to 128 and see what that does. I did it and it worked everytime. That's how I solved MY wake issue.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
I wouldn't flash the phone dialer fix if on miui because their dialer is heavily laced with iOS. This fix assumes stock aosp dialers which would apply to pretty much every other aosp ROM.

ropodope

I don't give a crApple what you think!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tlxxxsracer:
I think then this would be a good warning to the OP for those running MIUI.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HipKat:
Flashed the combo file of Radio, PRI, NV and WIMAX, and maybe it's MIUI, but I've got total wake lock. Checking battery stats, solid line and my Dsiplay is 39%, my Android OS is 10%. The phone has been in sleep mode all day at work, so....
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
I agree.

ropodope

I don't give a crApple what you think!
[EVO 4G Android Development] sbradymobile:
The poke lock ignore cheek events has nothing to do with awake time or android system usage, it simply ignores user events that are a cheek press. Here is the code:

private void userActivity(long time, long timeoutOverride, boolean noChangeLights, int eventType, boolean force) {

if (((mPokey & POKE_LOCK_IGNORE_CHEEK_EVENTS) != 0)

&& (eventType == CHEEK_EVENT)) {

return;

}

The phone.zip is not necessary (doesn't do anything noticeable) unless you are running programs that wish to capture cheek presses.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MizzouBrent:
So after all this talk, there its no reason to bother flashing the modified phone zip?
[EVO 4G Android Development] lowspeed:
From my experience, no. (the phone.zip did help though)
[EVO 4G Android Development] b0tes:
So what in your opinion is the best solution for battery drain attributed to a wake lock? Reboot? Sense?
[EVO 4G Android Development] nolig2278:
this topic is so confusing as it is all over the place

is it safe to install the radio update, the 1.77 and the gps fix that is linked on the OP for Sense MIKG3D?

thanks
[EVO 4G Android Development] tlxxxsracer:
Yes its perfectly safe to have bootloader flash the img which contains all the necessary files. No problems with that. GPS works just fine as well. no issues. I also like to make sure and do it while on a sense rom and then get a lock on sense then nandroid back to my current rom.

Update your prl and profile too
[EVO 4G Android Development] modmandan:
Ok, I did as the OP suggested and I am having a very frustrating issue now. My location services no longer work, so none of my weather apps can find where I am. I've used the Sense app, beautiful widgets and weather bug no longer follow me or can determine where I am if I update them.

I have done the PC36IMG.zip update and the Qualcomm Vision GPS Driver.

I am running MikG 2.52 and hardware 004. I tried the King GPS driver too and still can't get it to work.

Not sure what other data I need to give you, but this is driving me crazy!
[EVO 4G Android Development] tlxxxsracer:
Have you tried ##gpsclr#? Also, always NANDROID before trying to "fix" anything..
[EVO 4G Android Development] modmandan:
Not quite sure what the ##gpsclr# is? not heard of this one.

As far as a nandroid? I ALWAYS do before any change that may affect my phone in a bad way. I'm just trying to fix it before I have to restore my phone.
[EVO 4G Android Development] BlazinThat:
So I have tried this fix for a week now and still can't get it to stick. Anyone have an idea what works with deck rom 1.3? Yes I tried all the steps down to a t but still no luck.
[EVO 4G Android Development] HipKat:
It's the GPS Fix for AOSP ROMs that you do, but you have to be on a Sense ROM to use it.

I know, it doesn't sound right....

Anyhow, in a Sense ROM, you open maps, and get a lock, then you open GPS Status (Free in the Market) and get your Sats locked.

Then go to Dialer and dial ## GPSCLRX# and when the popup comes up, put in your MSL (Also free form the market: MSl Reader) ads the password.

The phone will re-boot, when it does, open Maps again, get a lock,then GPS Status. Hit Menu, Tools, Manage A-GPS, then hit clear data, then download data, and then you're done.

Reboot to recovery and flash or nandroid back to your AOSP ROM
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
Flash aosp .1 drivers, then flash Galandys 1.1 vision drivers directly overtop of the .1 drivers in the same recovery session. Works like a charm in decks 1.3d.

I wiped cache and dalvik and then i flashed them, was that right or did i have to do the other steps first? lol.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MizzouBrent:
What are the aosp .1 drivers for?
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
nope that's it. The .1 drivers will get the GPS working period. However, lock on is not fast and the icon stays on the notification bar for like forever before it goes away. The 1.1 drivers take your working GPS and lock on like a bat out of hell and release instantly upon app closure.

I don't give a crApple what you think!
[EVO 4G Android Development] scottspa74:
Kind of a stupid question, maybe, but when you flash drivers, is that kind of like a firmware? Something that sticks across wipes and rom flashes? T.I.A Ropodope ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:
they stick across cache and dalvik-cache wipes and sometimes kernel flashes but not usually rom flashes. Most often you will have to reinstall after flashing a new rom unless they are standard system drivers not in need of updates.

[EVO 4G Android Development] chaotic646:
Is this supposed to fix the high android system usage on AOSP roms or is the fix for that something else?
[EVO 4G Android Development] tlxxxsracer:
If you dont get gps locks- that is what you do. Make sure you get a gps lock though when youre in sense before flashing back to a backup. ;)
[EVO 4G Android Development] AirborneCmH:
Ok, so I am running a aosp cyanogen mod based rom and was definitely having wake issues because my battery usage stats had the android os always at the top. I followed the directions for the first method to the t and below is what I have so far. My question is am I still having wake issues because that just doesn't look right. I have not tried the other attempts yet, wanted some feedback first. Thanks.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MizzouBrent:
When you say "wake issues", ignore what is listed on that screen. If you touch the graph, it will show you the larger graph with the blue bar that indicates "awake" time. Is it a solid line with no breaks? If so, then your phone isn't sleeping. It should be pretty close to your "screen on" line unless you listen to a bunch of music or something. You can use Spare Parts or BetterBatteryStats to determine if you have any true wakelocks, which causes your phone to work even though you think it's sleeping.

I see Android System usage pop up on my battery stats. Honestly, I just ignore it. I don't think it really means anything anyway. I get high Android System usage if I make a lot of phone calls or right after booting my phone. But I don't have any wakelocks. I think it's just something to do with the way battery usage is reported.
[EVO 4G Android Development] AirborneCmH:
+1, Appreciate the info and thanks for the quick response. I will be checking things here shortly then.
[EVO 4G Android Development] MizzouBrent:
I was on my phone earlier, so I couldn't get the link, but here is the XDA version of betterbatterystats. It's the most detailed app for wakelocks that you can find. Check out post 2.

I havent read through all 56 pages, so Im not sure why it says on the OP that this can no longer be suggested,

FWIW, I was desperate so went ahead and tried...

The origional method did NOT work for me, but the 2nd version, the NV1.77 version, DID:D.

My phone has been noticably better with battery life and the Android system was totally gone for 1 day, on day two it is only showing 2%.

At 9 hrs, 35% right now with fairly heavy use on a 1900mA battery that hasnt even been cycled properly yet.

phone info:

hardware 003

rom Xplod RLS2 (CM7 based)

kernel Tiamat 3.3.7
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigd2442:
well.. 2 days in and its back to 30%.

No changes whatsoever. :(

Im trying to reflash the boot zip and NV 1.77 again, we'll see if it sticks. Guess I better start reading through the whole thread. :[

******edit**********

okay, I know this thread was pretty much dead but Im going to update for the sake of any poor bastard that has nowhere to go and tries this.... like I am.

After reading through 30 pages of a thread that says "SOLVED" it has become very clear that this freaking thing is NOT solved.

Maybe there are people doing it wrong and it COULD be solved, I dont know.. but what I DO know is that there are about 5 different variations in this thread to about 3 totally different issues.

I personally am on an AOSP rom and having the high "system" readings under Android system. When using spare parts to find wake locks...

This seems to be due to the phone no letting go of the sensor after a call, which explaines why my battery was great after the initial radio fixes.. I didnt use the phone yet.

Ive downloaded the phone.apk from page 31 and will be trying this version:

And tring ropadope's fix:

..if for any reason my proximity sensors go haywire...

Last case I will try to reflash a CM kernel (on Taimat now)

Last LAST case, I will go back to Sense (blagh)

p.s.- how the hell are there so many awesome AOSP roms out there if this problem still exists?
[EVO 4G Android Development] bigd2442:
Ok, update.. Did as said above, did NOT seem to work.. Rebooted and suddenly stats started to slowly drop from 30% down to where it is now...

You need a full wipe, flashing straight on top will give you problems.

Cell Standby and Idle in particular have very high use.
[EVO 4G Android Development] ropodope:

[EVO 4G Android Development] -eVo-:
Hello, running Mikg 1.04. I have everything latest except nv at 1.77. I only see the high percentage of OS when I have hotspot on, probably because it prevents the phone from sleeping. However, when OS is not up there, the display is up at around 80%, and by battery life is ridiculously bad. I will flash the combo tomorrow to see if it makes any difference.

Also when at 100% battery my battery mV is at 4040. Don't know what that means but for some reason it seems pretty low. Can someone explain what exactly that is and if 4040mV at 100% is bad.
[EVO 4G Android Development] evohog:
I don't know if it fixed the wakelock yet but I fan tell you that this combo plays real nice in my area. My speeds have quadrupled since flashing this combo. I was on th newest radio and it sucked bigtime. Thanks op. Appreciate the effort and research you put into this.

hmm ive had no problems with the new ota radios and such calk provided, had a hickup installing them :P but otherwise i can get over 24 hours out of the battery on the synergy nightlies... 18 hrs 36 mins 47 secs on battery and it was at like 86% charge level when i woke up cuz my craptop went on standby while i was conked out which stopped the charging and it was at 14% when i got home and plugged it in and that was with friendstream updates on the lockscreen and widget, push gmail/email, friendcaster update check every 5 minutes, texting the main squeeze and pals and 5 or 6 phone calls, plus i have crap reception in my house :P i am, however, scratching my chin in debate on testing this though :P
[EVO 4G Android Development] cordell12:
I did the fix, it does seem to be working too! Though I have my thoughts on it from what I see in stats now. I never had a Android OS, I always had Android System, not sure the difference in the two, but when first pulling off the charger I had both. System at 28% and OS at 2%, I am also seeing many other things that were never their before such as XDA app, Browser, and other apps I use. My guess is that every thing was being lumped into Android System for me, they are now broken down, I am happy with this as I can see exactly what I am doing to kill my battery, if this is what the fix does, unlump apps from android system. Thanks for all you time and effort!!!

Android System would show up on occasion before applying this fix. After applying this fix my battery life is really cruddy (down 20% in 2 hours). Is it safe to say that a nandroid restore will not put my radio, PRI, etc back to the way they were? What is the best way to restore my set up?
