It looks like it is Fancy Widget updating in the background. I think the default update on that application is 15 minutes. If so that will eat into your battery.

if you really have a deep sleep issue (that would mean your phone stays awake all the time) you should look into interrupt and hardware not partial wakelocks.

God Damn it that log is dirty.

I have not so much time to answer all you have to do but look at this. :

Optimize maps as described in post 3 in this thread.

Disable JuiceDefender.

Disable autosync of Google account in rom / settings.

Disable locations services in rom / settings.

Disable auto update in gplay.

Disable autosync of Instagram.

Choose either gsm or 3g with good network bars (connectivity).
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
1. Please provide an idle dump = about 4 hours doing nothing/screen off all the time. Then it's much easier to find the unwanted drainers.

2. Check Karpfenhai's description to optimize Maps (link in post #3).

3. Uninstall/freeze JuiceDefender. It "hides" the real culprits and creates many alarms itself.

4. Uninstall/freeze (or greenify) Ebay mobile app/widget. It creates many alarms on your phone.

Then record another BBS dump to get a proper analysis and better advices.

EDIT:

Casanoaa was faster ... and more detailed :good:

Thank you very much Karpfenhai :3

I actually don't use genie widget, but I think it's the 1weather widget which uses genie to get its updates. I've changed the update interval from 30mins to 1hr.

I don't even use Google Talk. I thought I disabled that devil! I'll sort it out with autostarts.

My bad - I forgot to re-enable root features after clearing data for bbs.
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
As your phone seems to be rooted, please enable root features in Advanced menu and tick all stats in Dumpfile menu.

Here are your main (partital) wakelocks:

Genie (com.google.android.apps.genie.geniewidget.News & Weather): Try to disable auto-refresh/update or remove the widget.

GpsLocationProvider: Check that all location service options are disabled.

com.outlook.Z7.ApacheHttpClientEasConnector (com.outlook.Z7.Outlook.com): If you don't need it everyday, disable/freeze it.

*sync*_gmail-ls_Account (com.google.android.gm.Gmail): Disable (auto) sync of all your accounts, especially Google/Gmail. I recommend to manually pull your mails in stock Email app/widget.

Rest seems to be Ok IMO.

[BetterBatteryStats] ThePureHeart:
Hehe, thank you so much :3

Your response is just as valuable!

I forgot to setup BBS properly after clearing its data - oops.

I think it's the weather app trying to use location services - I've now set the location so it won't have to look for my location anymore.

I /need/ Gmail and Outlook to push my emails to me. Outlook only runs every 15mins. I'll probably increase it to 30mins.

I've stopped using JuiceDefender but... would you advise that I use it just for sync control? That way I can set all Google syncs to every fifteen minutes instead of push.

Edit:

I've just checked Google sync settings and it seems Google has introduced "app data" sync option! I've now cut that down to only one account. Good on Google!

Thoughts?
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
In this dump is not much to worry about, you could try to optimize maps as described in post 3.

Gprs stall points to bad network connectivity, I assume this is the main cause for your drain, you could set the device to use 2G only and / or try another baseband.

I've been trying to solve this for a few days but had no luck.

Usually, during the night and in airplane mode, the phone would loose about 2%. Since a few days ago (a few CM nightlies ago?) it looses about 7%-10% during the night and in airplane mode.

Overall, the phone is eating much more battery.

Can anyone check the attached log, which is from one night?

Having huge battery drain issues on my Wife's GS2 since upgrading to JB. Unfortunately due to some apps she uses it can't be rooted. I've posted BBS log in the hope that someone can help me find a resolution....

Phone is unrooted running stock UK Vodafone JB rom. I have tried full reset from recovery inc clearing cache (several times) Have formatted all storage (OB and SD) and also I've turned off location services and google now but still no better.

Overnight the battery level drops by over 50% in 7hrs :(

Wow, huge awakes.. Wifi is your main Problem, try to user better wifi on / off .

Since you are on a stock rom i strongly recommend to flash speedmod kernel for best battery life, the plus side, you will be rooted afterwards, so tick root features within BBS and show us your alarms.

with wifi turned off the drain should be gone, confirmed?

Good luck!
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
I think biggest culprit is wifi.

Try to turn off wifi and check again next night.

If this will lead to significantly better battery life, I recommend to change the wifi policy in ROM Settings > Wifi > Advanced > "Keep wifi on when phone is sleeping" and set it to "Never" or "Only when plugged in".

That will automatically turn off/disable wifi when screen goes off (and phone runs on battery).

Ebay mobile and Maps are active on your wife's phone.

So think about disabling all auto-update/refreshes and notifications of Ebay mobile app, remove its widget, or disable/uninstall it completely, if you don't need it.

For Maps it's more difficult as the phone is not rooted. Check Google's location service options in Maps menu and untick all.

Good luck !

EDIT: Ok Karpfenhai ... I'm really becoming old :crying:
[BetterBatteryStats] uridium_uk:
Sadly Some of the apps on my wife's phone plus it being a corporate phone means rooting it isn't an option :(

Afraid she uses Ebay mobile and it's notification services...again Maps is also needed however the location services are definitely all turned off.

funnily enough i changed the Wi-Fi connection policy just this morning to "Never" that was the next thing i had in mind to try. Just thought i'd post the BBS log in case i'd overlooked something you guys had seen before.

Will see how it goes tonight.

Thanks for your help.
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Hold on, with speedmod kernel you can make your adjustments and do a full unroot afterwards, the adjustment should persist, even the advantages of the inbuilt battery savings, try it.. its totally save, if it doesn't work you can simply flash a stock kernel.

After flashing the kernel you will also have the opportunity to make a full backup (nandroid)

It's worth it.

Instructions here -> http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=37772191

Btw, speedmod is not a "scriptkiddy" kernel is the best approach for having no problems at all.

[BetterBatteryStats] abmantis:
I also could not find anything weird in the logs =/

Tonight it only lost about 3% - 4%, and not in airplane mode! I did a lot of things yesterday, so I'm not sure what was the root of the problem, but I'll try to find it.

Thank you anyway
[BetterBatteryStats] uridium_uk:
OK...I'll try speedmod on my GS2 first. Mine also needs to be unrooted (corporate phone again). So i can just disable the autoroot by creating a file named .noautoroot and placing in \system yes?

And just installing this kernel without root alone will show an improvement in wakelocks and battery life?

edit...hmm slight problem in that without root you can't write to \system or \data to create the .noautoroot file....
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Wait mate ;)

1. Flash the kernel via odin = root enabled.

2. Make sure USB Debugging is enabled (Developer options)

3. Make adjustments to the rom (Maps and other autostarts)

4. boot into recovery attach phone to PC (assuming adb ist installed)

5. Follow the steps described above to unroot the phone.

6. After reboot, device is unrooted but the kernel (and it adjustments persist)

To re-enable root boot again in recovery and delete the .noautoroot file

In recovery with adb you can gain always root.

Read the first 3 posts from Speedmod thread with care, follow also the links to learn about the Developer (Hardcore)

Last, good luck and dont forget the backup ;)

PS: I assume you know how to deal with odin and ADB, there are many many brief descriptions out there.
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
Just to add:

AFAIK, the nandroid backup in SpeedMod kernel does not include preload partition. So for stock JB ROMs, it is not a complete backup.

Keep this in mind when you have to restore this nandroid backup.

As long as nothing in preload partition is changed, it should be OK, but if something was changed there, the restoring of this nandroid backup may lead to a "corrupt" system. (Then you may have to flash the whole stock ROM again.)

That's why I recommend to use either a kernel with a recovery that allows you to include the preload partition (such as PhilZ kernel), or use an app, such as Online Nandroid Backup (or Orange Backup) app from Play store. These apps need root, so create a proper backup as long as the phone is rooted.

Good luck !
