Wakelocks

I tried to figure this out, but not having any luck. My phone is not rooted so the alarm section does not have entries. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Hey there,

first of all, disable all location based services, they are eating your battery, use altitude instead of.

second, disable google backup, use alocal backup (titanium) instead.

third, this DHD Wakelock is related to your kernel, could you try another one to see whether it persists?

It seems dhd WL are occuring due to network transfers, so maybe bringing down the network traffic (Network location) will reduce it as well.

Good luck!
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
What do you mean "awake for no reason"? As BBS shows each wakelock always has a reason ;)

We would need a better name. Maybe something like "pure awake" / "unplanned awake" / "not user initiated awake" / "background awke".

Anyway sum of this time and deep sleep should be equal to total up time or "since" time. Agree?[/QUOTE]

"no reason" was maybe the wrong term, what I meant was that that time is the time ( the right red part in the 1x1 widget) is the awake time the user should be looking for as it is the time where the phone was "off" and one is implicitely expecting the phone to do nothing in that phase as there is no interaction of any kind from the user perspective.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
I like happy user!

No there is no conflict with the version from google play and the one from XDA as they use different namespaces, running both is not recommended though.

A rejection by google may have different reasons, if you PM me the order number I can check but definitely it is not related to installing the xda edition.

Anyway I'm happy things sorted out well
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
both are covered by the feature requests, you can follow them on github (check the first posts of this thread) and from the changelog referring to the github issue numbers
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Thant's simple: on unplug I check for the battery level, if it's 100% then "since charged" is saved together with since unplugged. if level is < 100% then only the latter is saved. To me it makes no sense to save a reference when the level reaches 100% as whetever happens between then and unplug is irrelevant in terms of wakelocks (most devices hold a wakelock while charging but not all). I could do things differently but I decided not to as any interpretation of since charged if you wouldn't unplug straight away would make no sense.

What android reports is a different story and relies on different design decisions for different reasons

Hello.. First of all thank you for this great app, it really helped me extend the battery life om my phone :D I have a question, i hope somebody will/can answer:

When I look at "battery use" in settings I can see a service named "Services that cost you money" which I have never seen before. As you can see on the pictures it consumes some battery. I would just like to know if someone can clarify what it is and if it is normal?? I have searched a lot around the net but can¨t find the answer??

Greetings

Jelly Bean

Hi guys,

Ever since I switched to JB I can't seem to get my wakelock numbers back where they were on ICS. I installed ALTitude this morning--I'm not sure if I have it configured correctly. I have all of beautiful widgets disabled in autorun manager. Any ideas?

Thanks!
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Not sure whether you guys are trolling or if i should take this serious....

You're only problem is maps, if you didn't actually used it, disable ALL autostarts from it.

Good luck.

You don't have a problem, 20 mins out of almost 9 hours are quite perfect, enjoy your smartphone!

Back again after Jelly Bean Install :(

Hey Guys,

I'm having battery issues again after installing Omega V27 (JB)

I've been digging to find out what the cause of the issue is and the only thing that stands out is deleted_wake_locks which has 45000 counts but there isn't enough information to know which application is causing the deleted wake locks.

I've attached a dump of my stats.

Can someone please try help? I took my phone off charge at around 8AM and it is now 11:15AM and I'm on 71% Battery usage.

So I've lost 29% in 2 hours
[BetterBatteryStats] v0 HaVoK 0v:
Why does it say my time without signal and that my bluetooth has been on all this time? I never even had Bluetooth on once and it says it was on the whole time.

See.

https://dl-web.dropbox.com/get/One X/2012-09-28_11-29-32.png?w=b1ce6be0

If that causes extra drain it would be annoying, but if it's just a glitch in the app I guess it's ok.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
No, just name space and on xda you get betas and rc versions, on Google play only releases
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Time without signal will show when wifi is on or if your phone does not support that feature. I don't know of any case of wrongly reported Bluetooth so you should have a closer look into that
[BetterBatteryStats] P.Mobile:
thanks.. what version works??? i tryed the paid one and it didnt work so i refunded.. then i tryed a few builds on the this thread and still no stats??
[BetterBatteryStats] v0 HaVoK 0v:
Must because my phone does not support that feature because my WiFi certainly wasn't on for that length of time. I'm definitely going to look into this Bluetooth problem, I hope it's not causing drain, but I'd think it's just a glitch in the app, because I check even with AVG and it says Bluetooth is off.
[BetterBatteryStats] riskaa:
Could someone help me with this please. I'd really appreciate it.

Please help.

I have disabled maps in Autostarts, but it still seems to be causing a lot of wakelocks. What am i doing incorrectly?
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
If you didn't get stats it is probably because you didn't plug/unplug after installing. I'd recommend both the version in gplay and the latest rc as it is going to be release this week end
[BetterBatteryStats] kmetek:
i have this com.cooliris.media.gallery

something i can do about it? thanks
[BetterBatteryStats] skarboy:
so there is no love for my logfiles from page 899? ;)

thx
[BetterBatteryStats] xelra:
Those logs are a bit of a mystery to me. There is nothing non-standard or out of the ordinary.

Apart from your log having a lot of screen on usage in just 3 hours, I don't think that taking a proper log would change the picture.

If that were my results, I think I would suspect the ROM and statt by flashing another ROM and/or kernel.

The sec-battery-monitor is the standard system integrated battery monitor.

The way to disable autostarts using Gemini doesn't seem to work anymore with the latest Google Maps 6.12.0 using CM10. Maybe it's location history acting up. hmm

OK, I will postpone the release in order to have a look at this. I believe it's a pre ICS problem as those styles were introduced back then. I just have to wait for tonight to get a phone with GB and I will hopefully be able to reproduce. Than you for reporting

Edit: the good news is I was able to hijack a desire and I could reproduce. The phone stays mine till it's fixed :)

@chamonix

Is it recommended to freeze Google Search? How about Google Play Services?
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
I wouldn't recommend freezing anything that doesn't cause any harm except if you don't need it and it's safe to freeze.
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
Tested on Android 2.3.6 (XWLA4 stock ROM) and no FCs in BBS app 1.11.0.0 RC8.

I have clicked everything (each stat and stat type, each wakelock in KWL, each app symbol in PWL/Alarms/Process, each alarm, more stats from menu, each help entry from menu).

If I have not forgotten to click something, everthing seems to work fine on pre-ICS.
[BetterBatteryStats] Noed:
If you're in JellyBean yes, GoogleSearch apk includes Google Now, and it does a lot of background work and connections. You can disable part or all in Now settings instead of freezing the whole thing.

New version is up. No change from latest RC. The gplay rollout has started as well. Thank you for all the testing and patient reports, it's been a fun iteration as always!
[BetterBatteryStats] skarboy:
the newer one was taken over night.

i was on stock with different kernels, where my bad batterie life began, so i changed back to stock ICS and then to "stock" cm9 over the last weeks. as there was no difference i now took a deeper look into it.

so maybe there is a hardware problem. because i got strange charging behavour too sometimes (which is better since i changed to cm)

very odd...
[BetterBatteryStats] yhrn:
I apologize for the bump but I'd really appreciate if somebody could shed some light on why I get such a huge difference between the sum of all KWLs and the Awake time. I get this consistently. If I leave the phone alone for a couple of hours the awake time is usually 5 to 10 times the KWL time.

I'm wondering about this too. If i disable all the location services, Google Now doesn't work, even with Altitude installed.

I've disabled all the Maps 'autostarts,' and Maps still shows up as using battery, so I know that this is location service related. It's a bit of a pain really. I don't know if there's another workaround.

com.google.android.gsf.gtalkservice anooying wakelock

Hi everybody,

I'm having serious issues with com.google.android.gsf.gtalkservice, it's causing lots of wakelocks and wakeups in my Galaxy S3 GT-I9300. I am on a fresh flashed XXLG8 ROM. I didn't like my carrier's ROM (Mexico TELCEL), because it was full of bloatware and the ROM was not updated since june. I have fixed the "fast-dormancy" issue from another post, and everything seems to work fine, because I am having great standby times with the data turned off, but when I'm turn on data connection, there are lots of wakeups / wakelocks from the com.google.android.gsf.gtalkservice.

I have logged of from the Google Talk, I have disabled all the locations services, I think that Maps is not running :confused: , I have disabled the automatic location in Latitude, but I am still confused of what is causing hundreds of wakeups and wakelocks :eek:

I hope that anybody could help me. :D
