This not help at all. Do the idle log/dump about 3-4 hours and screen time below 2 minutes.

Idle would mean that you don't use the phone at all. This way you can track down offenders more easily.
[BetterBatteryStats] jacknicholson:
Thanks for the quick reply. I forgot to mention, though that I've previously followed that tutorial and since realized that disabling Gtalk (and possibly other Google related services) prevents my anti-theft from locating my phone. But I suppose it can't hurt to try again, this time disabling each service one-by-one to figure out which one actually breaks the locator.

Edit: And it turns out I've followed the instructions poorly, as they don't seem to involve disabling Gtalk directly. :banghead:
[BetterBatteryStats] s2mario:
After a long quiet while, I have to ask again for help here... a few days ago, my Galaxy S2 started to drain the battery about 8% every hour. I didn't install anything new recently. I disabled JuiceDefender - which made no difference at all. What I'm sure I never had before is the secril_fd-interface wakelock - could be the provider did something with FD (device has it enabled)? I also notice lots of net activity from the Weather Channel widget and Yahoo Messenger - but they have no setting to tune it a bit down and I kind of use them...also the MediaScannerService is top of the partial wakelocks, why would it??? Any suggestion what to throw out/replace/tune? Thanks a lot!
[BetterBatteryStats] azeem40:
Start by following the link in my last quoted post (just above yours). Dial *#9900# and disable FD.

Here is some info on multipdp:

svnet dormancy

Author(s): sven, credits to Entropy512 [MENTION=4906580]xda-dev[/MENTION]

Ranking: n/a

Speaking Name: svnet-dormancy / multipdp (those are synonyms, depending on android version)

Rationale: svnet-dormancy is a kernel wakelock related to cell data transfers - Fast dormancy or not, you get a 6 second wakelock any time the radio transfers data

Know actions: Change the duration of the wakelock (use at your own risk). Reduce the wakelock by reducing the amount / number of data traffic requests

Known conditions of occurence:

Caused by data traffic

ThanksThanks

Hi Chamonix,

Don't get me wrong, but… any chance you can revamp a bit the user interface? Like putting the 3 menus in a top bar split by 3. They are taking half of the screen in my phone.
[BetterBatteryStats] jacqstrap:
Really new to using BBS. Was wondering if there is anything I can do to improve my battery life. I do use apps like Facebook and of course the Google apps.

Thank you again. I really appreciate it.
[BetterBatteryStats] s2mario:
Thank you! Did that and:

- it's still awake about half of the time,

- eating up battery almost 7% every hour

- the #2 and #3 kernel wakelocks are still multipdp (24%) and secril_fd-interface (17.5%)...

:((
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
I don't get you wrong, I know where bbs' strength is and it is not UI.

I have started working on v2.0 the that will have a complete UI redesign. Currently I have implemented the nav drawer pattern so that the navigation is gone from the menu. I still have tons to do but will give updates in the thread with screenshots and finally a round of betas
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Google location tracking is you main issue from that reading (nlp wakelocks).
[BetterBatteryStats] jacqstrap:
Are there are necessary steps to get rid of the location services other than turning GPS off? Because I know I still get idle battery drain from Google related services
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Iocation is not the problem here but the fact that maps is set to update you location to the server (location tracking)
[BetterBatteryStats] :
I have a question concerning my device, but can also be potentially helpful for others. Does someone know how to get a list of apps and/or processes that are triggering multipdp wakelock?

The reason I ask is that I noticed on my phone that facebook messenger doesn't trigger a lot of partial wakelocks on my device. However, multipdp will be triggered for an unusal amount of time. When I disable facebook messenger, all is well.

That means that facebook messenger must be triggering that wakelock. The problem is that I can't see that through BBS. So does anyone know of a way to check it out? something like the command used to check for the alarms causing AlarmManager to trigger (dumpsys alarm), maybe?
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
But multidpd is just a synonym for active data connection...

Since Facebook is a known drainer... you gave the answer by yourself...

I don't get the question, sorry...

Tapatalked from my Galaxy SII
[BetterBatteryStats] :
Sorry, i might have been a bit unclear:p

What i meant is, there is a command (dumpsys alarm) with which you can see what triggered the AlarmManager wakelock. I was just wondering if there's such a command for multipdp too, because the network section in bbs only shows amount of data transferred, and not the amount of times a specific app has received/sent data. That is all masked by multipdp.

I hope that was clear enough
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Ah, okay now I got it, usually the trigger event should be congruent with app specific alerts in the alarm section, but I think it's not possible to see how often it polls for data while a wakelock is hold (app remain active).

Let's see what chamonix is thinking about this.

o_O

Have 2 questions ?

Am using a HTC sensation 4g since I been changing rooms frequently my battery stat is inaccurate always show a "x" ( x =any ) and after I reboot the % change to a higher number but since I use this app my battery % is always the same so this app help to improve accurate?

And it feels like my battery last longer, or is just better accuracy?
[BetterBatteryStats] dizzle91:
Here are my results from a idle dump. Im getting 1.7% drain per hour.. thats not very bad, but i would like to get less.. any suggestions??
[BetterBatteryStats] azeem40:
Follow the GSF Wakelocks post on page 1879. Otherwise, I don't see anything bad with your stats in the screenshots, although 1.7% per hour on idle is still pretty high. I get less than .1% drain per hour in idle on my i777. I followed that aforementioned post to help with battery + Greenifying apps. Btw, your text file has nothing on it.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
That is a tricky one. An app relying on the phone being kept awake without placing a partial wakelock has a design flaw. Knowing the kind of hacks the facebook devs are doing on android I could not tell whether this was done on purpose or if it is side effect.

I could indeed code the response to an alarm (Intent service) in such a way that it would perform a network request and hoping that this would be so fast that the phone would not get back to Sleep before that request is served. I could even do this on purpose and design of my code to support being interrupted. This is in no way following the guidelines for Android though.

Now back to the problem. I don't know of any kernel command to request for that information but I will check the spec of the network stats to see if, beside the data volume, I can get hands on the relationship between the process id and the state of the radio. With this it may be possible to find out what app has waken up the radio. This info could be the relevant in finding apps that transfer small bursts of data (the worst ones as the radio stays on for a while even if you transfer only a few bytes.
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:

Need help reading dump

Hello, would someone be willing to help me read a dump? I have been getting terrible battery life for about a week. I have disabled location services, killed Google now, changed syncing intervals on email clients, all to No avail. I'm not really good at reading the dump file and was curious if someone would be willing to help me figure out what is chewing through my battery so fast. This dump is from my Verizon galaxy s3. I restarted it, opened BBS, and then unplugged the phone. I then let it run while I slept. I can't figure out what wakelocks are keeping the phone awake. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hi guys, am a bbs virgin and would like to know what's keeping my phone awake. Ran BBS the first time and thought it was wifi and microsoft exchange account that was the culprit so have disabled both. However as the attached dump will show, it is not either of that two since its been disabled. Am clueless so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance :)
[BetterBatteryStats] Miche1asso:

[BetterBatteryStats] azeem40:
Follow the GSF Wakelocks post on page 1879. Also, use Greenify to hibernate apps.

First, dial *#9900# and disable Fast Dormancy. Your Secril_FD-interface wakelock is too high. Your #1 kernel wakelock is suspend-backoff, which has to do with either wifi turning off when screen off/wifi turning on when screen on, or Chrome. If you have a profile, such as one in tasker, that turns off wifi when screen is off and back on when screen is on, that is your culprit. I have had this wakelock happen to me and removing that profile fixed it. If you have Chrome, follow this post: ( xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2209579 ).

L2-hsic is caused by FD as well IIRC.

I apologise if this is the wrong thread to ask.

However, I have followed the instructions on the posts by Casanoaa and Karpen(?) and every time I flash an update to my ROM or install a new ROM, the settings on Autostarts and System Tuner do not carry over, even with a Titanium Backup restore.

Is there any way to retain the settings on a new/updated ROM?

Thank you.

Thank you for your response! Autostarts and System Tuner both retain settings?

I do a factory reset when moving between ROMs.

Do you use titanium backup?

Thanks!
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Then you have your answer, factory reset wipes data partition...

I do use titanium but last time between Samsung roms.... more then 8 month ago...

But normally restore data only should work for autostarts..

These apps are probably adjusting the sqlite db for the system app itself, therefore a factory reset will kill these adjustments as well.. or you restore data for system apps, which is not recommended..

Anyway, good luck..

Tapatalked from my Galaxy SII
[BetterBatteryStats] Jeremy:
Thanks for your help.

However, when moving between certain ROMs, it is necessary for me to do a factory reset.

The only way I can back up my apps is through Titanium.

My other apps restore the data fine, but apps like autostarts and system tuner do not seem to restore their data like other apps.

Perhaps there is a workaround?
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Hmm, not afaik, sorry, but you should ask the related developers, perhaps they just need to know..

Hey there awesome guide and apps that allow me to track!

However I actually using Greenify Donation app which allow me to hibernate apps that have GCM service, hence allowing me to receive notification even when my app is in hibernation. E.g. Whatsapp.

By doing the guide, I think the GCM service stopped working. Is it possible to guide me for a slight modification hence I can get GCM to work? :o

The attached dump is not the usual idle dump you're looking for, but I'm just seeking some information on a wakelock reflected in the dump. The "gps-lock" kernel wakelock shows up on all 5 of the 4.3 Slim ROM betas for toroplus within a few minutes after a reboot and won't let the phone go to sleep. No other 4.3 or 4.2.2 ROM (including Slim) does this. The dump is from a fresh install of Slim beta 5, gapps, and Lean Kernel with all location access turned off. I've also tested a fresh install of just the ROM zip and got the same results. Furthermore, the exact same Lean Kernel is problem-free on CM 10.2. Any insight on what might be causing this?

Gmail app (not greenified) won't push either, even with everything that had "subscribedfeeds" and GCM enabled. I'm now using K9 mail, it seems to be pushing email, but don't yet know what its impact on battery will be.
