Thank you for the reply :)

I don't have Fast Dormancy on my Galaxy Nexus because as far as I know stock Google ROM doesn't have FD (please correct me if I'm wrong about this).

I don't undervolt also since I usually just use SmartReflex setting from Franco kernel. It's good enough.

I'm not keen in using screen filter app as well.

So I'm going to buy AutoStarts and try disabling GSF to see if the count goes down. Usually that's the only thing with high count on my Nexus although a few days ago I got a really high count of SyncLoopWakeLock which I can't figure out why since I rarely sync.

And just to confirm, "Please follow the first 3 posts to the dot" is the first 3 posts on the OP right? I already read them but still haven't fully understand everything. Already did the necessary steps to prevent maps from autostarting though thanks to Karpfenhai post.

So I just need to learn and figure out how to reduce GSF count.

Thank you for sharing your settings :)

How do i know if my network 3 UK supports fast dormancy?

[Insert useless info about every single aspect of your phone here]
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
Easy when you are on stock ROM ... maybe it works fine on NeatROM too => http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=22577453&postcount=171

Alternatively you have to check for the existence of fd-related wakelocks in your BBS. If you have wakelocks with "fd" and "ril", then you should try to change the FastDormancy setting.
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Don't get this wrong guys, carrier enabled fd cannot be suppressed by your device (afaik)

Only "fake"fd (phone trys to enter sleep state faster) can be en and disabled!

Thx hilmesh for sharing! :thumbup:

Any chance of adding a stat on the changing rate? I know that Samsung has a fast charge (Charging AC) and

a std charge (Charging USB) rate. It would be nice to have a way to tell which chargers are better than others.

Thank you very much for that great app!

I´ve attached my dump file from my xperia p, it would be very great if there are some tipps which information is needed for me to know "what i´ve to do" with the information in it...bluetooth is activated since boot, is this a problem?

Hi all.

I have the following question:

Let's assume that the phone is OK nothing is malfunctioning.

I turn the screen off and leave it that way for let's say ten hours.

Then I check the battery usage.

Who will be the most consuming process/ service?

Someone must be the most consuming process, it can not be that no one will consume battery for all that time.

Thanks

One of the things I keep looking for is the power drain by the cell radio.Is there any way to track this in BBS ? Or could you please add this capability .It is especially useful for folks who try out different Baseband/RIL combinations?

Another request is to add the % drain during on screen activity

Thanks for the very useful app
[BetterBatteryStats] cdmackay:
Any app that shows your battery current should be enough for that; Elixir 2 is an example.
[BetterBatteryStats] esseti:
one thing. since charged battery is at 96%, how can i tell to the app that it should consider the 96% as threshold for computing "since charged" stats?
[BetterBatteryStats] AestenD:
Personally I would say that if you never get past 96% you have a bigger issue to try and fix.
[BetterBatteryStats] ophirb:
Hi

I would appreciate it if someone will take a look at the dump file and analyze it.

The issue I see is as follows:

On a daily normal use Android OS consumes around 6-7% battery.

At night when screen is of and phone is unused for 7-8 hours, in the morning when I check battery use Android OS is at the top of the list with 30-50%.

I attach the dump file. It was created first thing in the morning. I charged the phone fully at night and then disconnected it and went to sleep.

I got a 1.2%/h battery drain.

Thanks
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Mate, there is nothing unusual in your dump, except some network noise (wlan_rx).

If your phone is idling, aos usage will increase, that's quite normal b/c nothing else is running..

Read the thread how to clean your wifi.

[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Hey jon, something is weird with your dump, it shoes more specific awake as total (11 mins vs 5), please do a clean unplug and provide another reading.

But the drain was probably caused by the time running at full speed.

There is nothing obvious visible so far (except data transfer), could you take a longer reading and repost?

Good Day Everyone,

First of all, I want to thank the Author of this app for making something like this. This app gave me insights on what is really happening with my phone.

I have a Sony Xperia S phone. So far, its one of the best phones I encountered. Good display, amazing UI, etc. One problem it has though is its lack of ability to sleep!

If you check out our forums here, a lot of people are plagued with wakelocks, bad battery life, etc.

Once I found out about this app, I immediately installed it and let it did its work.

My dump file is attached below. I let it sit for 10 hours without opening the screen, GPS off, DATA off...Only 3G signal on..

A few things I noticed though is the AlarmManager under "wakelocks" as well as the android.location in "Alarms". If anyone could have a look at it and share their insights, it would help not only me, but also a few hundred(or thousand) owners since I will be discussing this issue there also.

Just a side note, I used the trigger "AFTER BOOT" since one known bug of this phone is once you unplugged it after charging, it will just go hyper and would hardly sleep at all...so as not to add anymore inconsistencies, I just rebooted it then left it right after.
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
You're kidding right? :o

Based on this dump your phone sleeps like a new born baby :)

There is only some network traffic but nothing else..

Tapatalked from my Samsung GT9100
[BetterBatteryStats] chefnoob:
It is?!? :angel:

Thats good to know. I keep comparing it to the sleeping patterns of my other phone (Sony Neo V, ICS). That one sleeps like a corps, only 2% lost in 10 hours... The difference is uncanny when you check/compare both their stock battery stats graph.

I'll try to instigate the "charging bug" I mentioned earlier then I'll post a dump file here.

Again, thanks for the insights.

Please provide me a logcat after unplugging the phone once charged to that level. Currently bbs does not have that feature and I need a log to check a few things and I will add that threshold
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
From that reading I see rx_wake as the main cause of drain. Even if it's not that much you could try removing the cause: leaving wifi on all the time. As I understand that there are uncontrolled and potentially dirty access points involved you may try to find a kernel with proper patches or use a tool to control the wifi status as a definitive remedy (search for betterwifionoff)

[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Don't get this wrong, the kernel should help to save power..

Means, faster and better governor (less full speed) and maybe undervolting implemented.

Wasn't there a speedmod kernel for the gt 9000? I would vote for this.

A modem can save power if its well balanced, check the desired modem thread for your device.

Are you suffering the charging bug? (USB plug broken) Its not visible with custom kernels.

But we need more details.. which device, which circumstances? Screen of reference enabled? ...

Edit: just seen your sig, on the s3 there should be no charging bug..

Maybe its the superuser app itself our the reference.

Update

I'm not usually this abrupt, but I'm sorry, your post was not very helpful. I did read the opening posts (especially number 3!). I don't consider myself your typical "noob" who doesn't do some research before posting. I was hoping for some insight into my BBS dump. OK, back to my usual cheerful self... :)

I think it may be my fault for not explaining myself properly in my original post. I'm not looking to disable my phone to the point of being not as useful as I would like it to be. If I had turned these off I imagine it may have been harder to pinpoint the problem as I don't want these things off on a permanent basis. I'm also not looking to eek out every last second of battery life. I'm just trying to figure the huge battery drain I was experiencing (~40% overnight) compared to what I was experiencing previously when I did have WiFi on, etc. On that front, I think I've made some progress! :)

Turning off checking for WiFi networks and Android Location Polling under Experimental Stuff in Llama seemed to help a lot. If this is what you were referring to above, then I apologise for my abruptness earlier. :o

Hopefully this helps someone who experiences similar issues to me, especially if they see NetworkLocationLocator (Google Services) at the top of their list and are running Llama. The only downside is that I have to now manually change my profile at a location that is close to my home as Llama gets confused between the locations (due to the same cell towers being detected). I can live with that though.

I noticed a difference in general drain and this morning's readings were much better, but I now have a new problem. As you can see by my new BBS dump (attached this time ;) ), I had a problem that seemed to relate to the Gallery App and Picasa sync. I'm guessing this contributed to my drain overnight (which was about 20% still!) as I didn't notice it before I went to sleep. I went in to check the sync settings for my Google accounts and it seemed as though it was stuck trying to sync Picasa photos. This issue might have been caused by Llama turning off sync overnight (as per my settings). Needless to say, I have now switched Picasa photo sync off (I don't use it anyway) and will see how it goes.

Just FYI, my wife's phone updated to JB via OTA update last night and her battery drain is not too bad considering she has WiFi, sync, etc., on (just over 5% overnight). So, I'm trying to aim for something similar.
[BetterBatteryStats] Gabrieltan:
guys ！i face awake with my even log service?? i saw from some where about freeze google framework can solve the problem but google play does not work... is that true?? i mean solve the problem by freeze it.. sorry if this question has been raised before... 500+ page is hard to read all... xD
[BetterBatteryStats] chantoine:
Oh yeah, you did some research, really ?

Ok, maybe you read post #3... but didn't even go 2-3 days earlier in the thread... you should have see several dumps with WiFi bad behavior, and interesting analysis (other than mine). :D

You follow the good path.

From time to time, rebooting your phone could help too.

Hi,

I've got a 2h 30 awake with just 9 mins screen on. I've just checked some message on what's app and then didn't use phone. Multipdp and secril_fd are quite high. Could it be related to modem/kernel ?
[BetterBatteryStats] tuniel:
secril_fd is related to fast dormancy: is your provider supporting it? if not, you might want to turn it off.

multipdp is related to data traffic. if you have root, check the network stats to figure out which app is using data

in your partial wakelocks you have ~20 mins related to tasker. you could also double check its setting.
[BetterBatteryStats] Hilmesh:
multipdp & l2hsic are related to data usage. Secril_fd is for fast dormancy. In recent times many posts have discussed these in detail. You can also refer to post http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33158831&postcount=9592 by It_ler where he guides to another post which will help you in finding out whether your network supports FD or not.
[BetterBatteryStats] danielo:
I'm also a Tasker user and it seems like Tasker causing a lot of wakelocks. I'm in discussion at Tasker support forum, maybe there is some problem with the Tasker, not sure right now. If you want then take a look here https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups=#!starred/tasker/eXUGPRjFjvg
[BetterBatteryStats] luizlee86:
Hi! OP says that I have to leave the phone alone for 1-4 hours before generating a log file... this means that if I use the phone normally for like 3 hours and generate a log file, it won't be helpful? =P
[BetterBatteryStats] xelra:
Tasker is a very powerful tool. When you use it, you have to think.

It causes exactly the amount of wakelocks that you set it to cause.

---------- Post added at 03:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:47 PM ----------

Yes, it will not be helpful. Your phone will always drain battery, when you use it.

We look at logs from idle time or better said supposed to be idle time. If that time really is idle, then you are fine. If it isn't, then you can see the culprits with BBS.

Consider that idle drain as some kind of baseline, because of course it will also affect your usage stats like an offset.

Fast Dormancy is disabled (my provider doesn't support it) but still get the wakelock.
[BetterBatteryStats] [-Mac-]:
Even if I disable FD from menu *#9900# and after I check in *#0011# I continue to see transition PCH <---> IDLE, what does it means?

Maybe this means that I can't truly disable FD, but for sure my network supports FD?
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
If rcc state is "PCH" then disable FastDormancy.

If rcc state is "idle" then enable FastDormancy.

After this action, check again in a new battery cycle or just set a new custom reference in BBS app.

The fd wakelock should be gone.

Good luck !
[BetterBatteryStats] [-Mac-]:
My rcc state continues to change from PCH to Idle and viceversa even if I disable FD...

It seems that enabling or disabling FD hasn't any effect on rcc state.

Works like charm. Try it for deactivating fastdormancy
[BetterBatteryStats] Rob2222:
Are you sure you mean PCH=>IDLE and not DCH=>IDLE?

Fast Dormancy changes the TIME behaviour, how long the phone stays in different states.

Different states have different energy consumption. Lets name "IDLE" the lowest energy consumtion, with "1".

PCH states need 1-2 times the energy from IDLE (PCH is also a idle state. It is a little better than IDLE. Your carrier uses PCH _or_ IDLE as idle state).

FACH state needs around 50 times the energy from IDLE and

DCH state needs around 100 times the energy from IDLE.

So when transfering data, youre in DCH, which has a really high energy drain.

So you want you phone go back fast to PCH/IDLE _after_ the data transfer.

With FD-ON the SGS2 switches fast from DCH => PCH/IDLE. (often timeout is set to 5 seconds)

With FD-OFF the time depends on your network carrier. Some intelligent configurations from some carriers switch you back to PCH/IDLE in some few seconds, which is good. In this situation, you can disable FD on your phone.

Some not that good configured carriers, let your phone stay for around until 20-40 seconds after each data transfer in DCH and FACH. In this situation you should enable FD on your phone.

Then your phone switches back to PCH/IDLE after 5 seconds and doesnt wait for the network to get switched back by the network.

Rob

PS: In reality it is still a little more complex, but that would be more confusing.

PSS: On Galaxy S3 you can see the RRC states with *#0011#

ANY IDEAS? ??
[BetterBatteryStats] [-Mac-]:
Thank you, your post is very useful and you have reason I see "DCH" and not "PCH"

My RRC state are:

DCH

FACH

IDLE_CCCH

IDLE

There is something of strange in my network, when my phone (Galaxy S2) is in DCH state it marks H+ (HSPA+) and there is data exchange, but when it's in IDLE state it stays on H (HSPA) instead of 3G but no data exchange, is this cause of battery drain?

Are you saying that FD don't need carrier support?
