No way to tell. Compare it to letting your car's engine run a while compared to stopping / starting the engine.

With push you will most probably end up firing up you radio to full power the establish a connection as opposed to having a low power connection running with a keep - alive. As android does not orchestrate the usage of active connections to batch data activities good or bad design will also have an impact.

Facebook is still active on your phone, but it looks a lot better now :good:

Observe your battery stats for some time, and if it stays that good, enjoy your phone :fingers-crossed:
[BetterBatteryStats] Robi959:
Thanks.

Do you have any more tips for me ?

Is it good always to clear recent programs one time in day, or several times ?
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
From time to time I check my running apps. Some apps tend to keep running in background even after closing them (such as Internet, FireFox, etc.).

But I am not using any TaskKiller app. For suspicious apps, use Greenify instead.

Anyone know the trick to get Maps to pull up when using Gemini app manager. I search for Maps and it will not show up.
[BetterBatteryStats] ikjadoon:
Not sure, but I couldn't get Maps to come up in Greenify until it was made into a user app (uninstall from system, install on play store-root required). Could be totally different in Gemini, though...
[BetterBatteryStats] thechints:
I don't understand what to do. Other devices aren't draining battery at all. Nexus7 HTC One in the family too. Just my Galaxy Note. It wasn't even draining this much in CM based ROMs, just in stock JB Sammy ROM. Sigh.

I've a WiFi AP, connected with the ADSL modem using a CAT5e ethernet cable. DHCP services being provided by the AP. Within DHCP, primary DNS marked with the address of the modem and secondary with ISP's DNS. Default gateway being the ADSL modem IP as well. Seems to have no issues with connections.
[BetterBatteryStats] jhuff83:
Seems like you have to donate now to get to view maps and this was confirmed by the developer when I emailed him.
[BetterBatteryStats] xelra:
Greenification of system apps is an experimental feature. It's not guaranteed to work the same as with user apps. It's only available in the donate version as of now.

Maps shouldn't be a system app nonetheless. If it is, you can use e.g. Titanium Backup to make it a user app.

Then you can greenify it and also not rely on experimental features.

The Greenify help page covers this by the way.
[BetterBatteryStats] jhuff83:
I went ahead and donated already to Gemini.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
WLAN Wakeups are acting differently on different Roms. Now first the wakelocks must not have been caused by your access point, depending whether you were home for the whole reading or not. Those Wakeups are caused by incoming multicast traffic (eg upnp) and there are kernels taking care of filtering that out. A general advise to avoid that would be to turn off Wifi when the phone is not in use or use a tool like better Wifi on/off to do that for you

Still I'm clueless about the mipi_link Kernel Wakelock. Any ideas how to get rid of that one?

sent from a Galaxy Nexus!
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
uhh ohh, i afraid this was a bad move, since gemini wasn't reliable in the past..

You could try rom toolbox lite (free) or Autostarts.

Maybe Gemini is getting better if its still under active development.

good luck!

---------- Post added at 06:26 AM ---------- Previous post was at 06:23 AM ----------

hmm.. https://github.com/asksven/BetterBatteryStats-Knowledge-Base/wiki/mipi_link

i assume its related to data, bring down the amount of data transmitted and you will probably decrease mipi as well.
[BetterBatteryStats] kaushikd:
I'll try that for sure. This usually happens usually when I'm not connected to WiFi. Probably I should check each app individually to figure out the same. Do you think a clean install of the ROM will help?
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
After taking an idle reading with disabled wifi you should see the culprit within BBS Network / Alarm Section, prbably location services and weather tools.. just throw the dump here :) If a clean install indicates a non stock rom without any bloatware, yes it may help.

[BetterBatteryStats] Jane Shizuka:
Hello, I did some tests again with BBS, after the first catastrophe (considerably bigger battery drain, which I have successfully reduced) and configuring some things, and my battery improved incredibly (0.4%/h) but there are some weird wakelocks issues that I don't understand very well. As per the attatched log, minimalistic text made 25 m 40 sec of wakelocks and perfect app protector 16m 36s, however that would (in my understanding) be impossible, since the awake time was 7m 15 sec.

Are those displayings wrong, or I simply misunderstood what wakelocks actually are?
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
Yes, something seems to be wrong with those two wakelocks:

AlarmManager (de.devmil.minimaltext.Minimalistic Text): 25 m 40 s (1540 s) Count:160 7.5%

AlarmManager (com.morrison.applocklite.Perfect App Protector (Lite)): 16 m 36 s (996 s) Count:80 4.9%

With a total awake time of Awake (): 7 m 15 s (435 s) Ratio: 2.1%

Maybe the battery stats are not correct or the references could not be read properly.

For now, ignore those two wakelocks and enjoy your phone :good:

connectivity_change generates 50 wakeups per second

Hello,

since few days ago my battery runs down as fast as it can, 15-20% per hour. After installing BetterBatteryStats and reading many posts I think I have narrowed down the problem, but I'm not sure how to solve it.

Gsam says that 35% of the battery is used by "Android System". BetterBatteryStats, in Alarms section, says that com.android.settings is the most battery consuming, generating aprox 50 wakeups per second. When tapping on it the provided info is:

Wakeups: 29053

Alarms:29053, Intent: android.net.conn.

CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE

If I disable wifi and data mobile connection, the problem disappears.

As far as I know, CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE is a broadcast alarm. I don't know if this amount of wakeups is normal. My battery life was quite acceptable last month with the same ROM, so I don't know what is going on. I couldn't find any info regarding battery problems with CONNECTIVITY_CHANGE. Any help is really appreciated.

I have a Samsung Galaxy S2 (GT-I9100) with android 4.0.4, ROM 7comp 1.3.2 no patch, 3.0.15-MalezKernel-v2.0.1a+ and base band I9100XXLPW.

Used BBS to identify Facebook, Viber, Hill Climb Racing, Twitter, and Maps as causing many wakelocks. Used TiBa to uninstall Maps and reinstall from the Play Store. Then, Greenified all. Battery drain idle went from 3.2% to 0.4% per hour (for 0.4%, left phone for eight hours, only 3% drain).

Can someone help me save a little more battery?

[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Okay, here is my advice, as you can see the issue is caused by connectivity service, which is afaik a part of the android system process, therefore the system server throws a lot of wakeup.

Does this persist while Wi-Fi is turned off? Since you are rooted, please activate root features within bbs and tick alarms, we might see the cause there.

If not and if the issue persist during Wi-Fi is off, I recommend a clean install of your current Rom after you have tried a different kernel.

no kernel wakelocks

Hello to everybody, I am Nicola from Italy.

I have the following issues I hope you guys can help me out sorting out:

1. Betterbatterystats doesn't show anything under "kernel wakelock". It never did, and it does it on both mobiles I own (same model: alcatel one touch 4030-d - android 4.1.1 - betterbatterstats 1.13.4.0 xda edition). One 4030-d is rooted, the other is not.

2. Whenever I open betterbatterystats and I wait for "computing", the program actually doesn't show the real time elapsed, so i have to close and open it again in order to show the right time elapsed and statistics.

3. After a few tweks i managed to have a battery drain of 0.3%-0.4%/h with wifi off, and 0.4-0.5 with wifi on. I was actually pretty happy about it but after updating with the last ota available something changed... Now i get 0.8 with wifi off and 1.2 with wifi on.

unfortunately today i forgot to make a dump with bbs but i did with dupmpsys alarm > alarms_last.txt. I hope this can tell anything useful. Tomorrow i will post a bbs dump.

Thanks for any help!

Nicola
