[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] calculus1918:
I have the backwards problem here. I am trying to bring the Galaxy Tab 10.1 to Japan as a present for the In-Laws. I can pick up the Tab 10.1 n the U.S. for around $399, but the In-Laws and only read Japanese. Could I convert the U.S. version to Japanese (need much more than just the language settings, need the icons and the Japanese market, etc)? Thanks for all your help.

Do we run it on top of CM7? I tried it solo,and on top of a clean install of Synergy. I know its Cyan/AOSP based,but when I ripped it apart its not a complete Rom.

I think this "God Mode",from what I found,after searching for almost an hour. I wanted to flash to see if there were any performance gains to had on my device. It has almost a 350mb system image. Every time that I've tried to flash it,on a full wipe,it hasn't gotten past the splash screen.

Other useful tools

The default battery usage

(Gingerbread): Settings -> About Phone -> Battery Usage

The most interesting data is shown when clicking on the graph (bars below the graph). Unjustified "awake" times when display is off is an indicator for rogue apps doing stuff in the background when you think your phone is asleep

Battery Monitor Widget

Has a great stat on battery drain over time. I use this tool regularly after leaving my phone alone for 1/2 hour to check how the battery drain looks like against my benchmark of 2-10 mAh average (optimal for my SGS2).

[android backup service]

(http://code.google.com/android/backup/index.html). It is a service that offers cloud backup/restore of your settings and offers an API for other apps to do the same (http://developer.android.com/guide/t...ta/backup.html).

You can turn it off (but will lose the automatic backup) under Setting -> Privacy ->Back up my data.

Backups are useful though but no need to do it in the cloud, I'd recommend scheduling a regular backup using titanium instead (that's my setting).

[DataTracker-FD] is fast dormancy. Find the 'secret' codes for your device to turn FD off. *#*#9900#*#* on an SGSII. (contrib. by nobnut)

[syncmanagerhandlesyncalarm] That service is documented here (http://www.kiwidoc.com/java/l/x/andr.../c/SyncManager) and is responsible for updating the accounts you have under Settings -> Accounts and Sync. High values may come from bad settings (sync too often, huge amounts of data) or poorly written providers.

[BetterBatteryStats] thebeardedchild:
Been looking for something like this since I installed a GB ROM!

So, basically I install this app, and then Spare Parts should work as it normally did? (or dial *#*#4636#*#*, or whatever that is)
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
No Spare Parts won't be of any help as BetterBatteryStats does not replace com.android.settings.battery_history.BatteryHistory (called by Spare Parts). Installing the app you will get a new icon and will get the stats when starting it
[BetterBatteryStats] nobnut:
Excellent work! Just what Gingerbread needs. The very best of luck with the app!

Thank you.

Sent from my Motorola StarTac using Voodoo
[BetterBatteryStats] thebeardedchild:
Ah, I see, so I use this app instead of Spare Parts. Well awesome, thanks for the clarification, and the useful app!
[BetterBatteryStats] lexluthor:
This is great. What about mimicking the part in spare parts that showed percentage running time? That's valuable info too. I've seen many times where running time was pegged at 100 yet there wewettewere no partial wake locks.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
I'd be happy to look into that. Can you give me the exact name of the option/dialog you are missing to make sure we talk about the same thing?
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Thank you for the support and for the testing!
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Bug in Network Usage stat

nobnut has reported incomplete stats for network usage (list does not show all apps that have generating network traffic). I reproduced this on Gingerbread where my phone only shows google maps traffic. I could reproduce this on HSDPA as well as on Wifi. The figures that are shown seem ok and increases when I use Maps.

Now interesting is that this problem can not be reproduced on Froyo where reported apps concur with the Network stats from Spare Parts.

As the stat is incomplete I'll remove it from the app till I can find a solution.
[BetterBatteryStats] nobnut:
When I noticed this, it occurred to me that perhaps user apps were not reporting their data, whereas the system apps were. I can get readings for a number of apps, they are all system apps however.

This may just be concidence.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
New version 0.4.0 is out. See second post for download link and changelog
[BetterBatteryStats] nobnut:
Your blog link still reads 0.3.1 ;)
[BetterBatteryStats] lexluthor:
Not sure since I can't get there on spare parts.

It was in battery history and I think it was the default that came up that said "running" and it gives a percent of the time the phone is running.

I've seen that pegged at 100% with no wake locks, so that still indicated a problem.
[BetterBatteryStats] dmarden:
Very cool, thank you for your efforts. Downloaded and following on twitter/subscribed to the thread.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
oops, fixed, thank you
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Ok here's what I have on Froyo going to Spare Parts:

. Battery Information: useless

- Usage stats: it's an poorly formated list of apps with the launch count and CPU time

- Battery History: a list of graphable buttons with following stats: Other usage, Partial Wake Usage, Sensor Usage, GPD Usage, Network Usage, CPU Usage. Each shows a list of apps/processes with blue/red bars.

Maybe you are talking about "Other usages". Here I see % running, %screen on, %wifi on
[BetterBatteryStats] michael miq:
Hi, i tried this app, and when i check wakelocks, the top one is FDcompletetime UID. Anyone knows what is this?

Thanks a lot!
[BetterBatteryStats] nobnut:
Hi,

I must say from the start that this great app is absolutely nothing to do with me. It is all Chamonix's work... and very good work too.

As for your Tasker profile, yes, this will cause wake. But before you try and remedy this wake problem, have a think about this... 9 minutes over 8 hours isn't very much. If you want this feature (to search for WiFi), you can probably keep it and just live with the fact that basically your phone will be awake for only 1 minute every hour.

I would say that you have a few options:

1/ Live with it if you want it

2/ Remove it and use something like Juice Defender which does the same thing (I hate Juice Defender - it uses as much battery as it saves, I don't care who disagrees, I am right ;))

3/ Manually turn WiFi on and off when you want it

4/ Just keep WiFi turned on (it doesn't use as much power as you think)

5/ Adjust the frequency of the Tasker checks (increase them slightly - won't make much difference though)

The Tasker Wiki article that you mentioned was written and produced by brandall (an XDA member) and relates to the Deep Dleep Detective. You can read all about it here. It isn't as complicated as it seems. The first few posts might need reading 2 or 3 times perhaps but later on it all becomes very understandable and we have some fun in the thread also.
[BetterBatteryStats] carlos67:
Thanks Nobnut,

Think I'll go for option 1 and live with it. The tasker profile works well and whilst I could just leave wifi on all the time, as soon as I go out the house I would need to manually switch it off everytime in order for h/3g to come back on as the two can't be on at the same time right?

Cheers pal. :)
[BetterBatteryStats] nobnut:
No, they can be on at the same time. If your phone can't find a WiFi signal, it connects to mobile data automatically :)

If there is WiFi, it will use it by default.
[BetterBatteryStats] carlos67:
Arrrrrh.

Interesting! That changes things. I will verify that and perhaps just keep wifi permanently enabled and see how battery life pans out under that regime.

Do you know whether Orange UK use fast dormancy or not? Have tried looking on google but no definitive answer - least from official sources.

Currently mine set on.

Cheers dude. ;)
[BetterBatteryStats] nobnut:
I don't think they do, but I'm not sure. I know O2 don't. You could run two tests over say an hour long period, one with it on, the second with it off. See which one causes most wakelocks.

I predict you'd be better with it switched off ;) (But I may be wrong)
[BetterBatteryStats] f_padia:
One thing thats puzzling me is that I dont see any signs of wakelocks being acquired in my logcats. I've siften through about 3/4 hours worth of logcat and the only wake lock shown is that by alogcat which is the app I use to save the logcat peridocially. Yet this app shows almost 30 mins of wake lock from syncmanagerhandlesyncalarm and alarmmanager in the same 3/4 hour period!

How is this possible?
[BetterBatteryStats] nobnut:
That is probably because aLogcat isn't reading at the right level. Check in settings and select 'verbose', or try another level. It is obviously missing them and hence not reporting them.
[BetterBatteryStats] amarkovits:
Working great on HTC Sensation.

Thanks
[BetterBatteryStats] carlos67:
Can confirm the app works well on HTC Desire too. Takes about 8 seconds to initially display anything but after that works as expected.
[BetterBatteryStats] f_padia:
I have it set up to read all levels I think. Looking through them I see entries with I/ V/ E/ D/ the wake lock from alogcat is in as:

D/alogcat ( 2459): wake lock acquired

but I dont see this for any other processes :confused:
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
I think you have a pretty good understanding and altogether your stats are looking pretty good to me. What I don't understand though is what your profile is doing with wifi as the bars under the graph indicates it is on all the time. My phone has wifi off and I switch it on when at home but if it would be always on I would disable the tasker profile.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Don't be. Logcat is showing what the devs decide should be logged and not all things happening behind the scenes.
[BetterBatteryStats] carlos67:
It show's as on all the time cos' I seldom get out of the house. When I do tasker does it's thing and switches it off and tells me so via voice (tts). Works like a charm. Back to the house and BAMM, tasker switches it back on and say's "wireless on" (can't get it to say wifi:rolleyes:)

btw....Hope you don't mind but I posted a link on the Litening ROM thread about your excellent app. Sorry to have taken a liberty, should have asked you first I know.:o

Loving your app :)
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Nobnut is too modest. I am of the opinion that he deserves the gratitude and thanks as he invests his time, experience and know-how in supporting you guys and a lot of others by patiently and with a lot of precision supporting and testing.

We all know that a good app with a messy or non existent support does not work (except if it's an MS product)

So guys don't forget to click the 'thanks' button!
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
I understand. Then I have nothing to add to what nobnut already said.

And thanks for the advertising, no need to ask :)
[BetterBatteryStats] ithehappy:
So Mr.Chamonix, how far to the update? Will you post it here? or in Market?

Regards.
[BetterBatteryStats] springy:
You gonna put this on the android market?
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Testing custom references... Updates will always be here Even After Publishing to market

hi

i can't figure out, if my stats is good, so could anyone see if that looks promising ?
[BetterBatteryStats] kaosdroid:
hi,people

my data plan limit (1Go)by month

was explode in 2 day @_@ with no massive network use by me,

i can't define what is cause this mass data send/receive and my battery go down quikly,

in sparepart battery stats i see that this strange "0" and number give force close when click on it.

and see that phone is used too but i don't use it in this time part.

does someone have this?
[BetterBatteryStats] cephraim:
kgsl kernel wakelock

Doesn't seem like there was a resolution...
[BetterBatteryStats] XXCoder:
Just found this. Thanks! Finally found out that lookout was one having minor wakeup problems. It has fairly close to 2 hours wake up after day and half. Is that bad?
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Well it depends if you are ready to pay the price. My main consumer is Mail because I process hundreds of mails a day (I digest RSS feeds to my IMAP account) so I am happy with a wakelock on pull (push was far too expensive as I don't need real-time).

If I were you I would check if there are settings that may reduce the wakelock. I don't know lookout but I would assume the wakelock is due to some scan. In that case the question is if the frequency of the scan can be adjusted or if it can be configured in such a way that the scan happens while on charger.

As I said, just my 2 cent as I don't know that app.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Can you provide a BBS dump of this situation. I would be stunned if we could not trace the cause by looking at services and partial wakelocks.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
I have found this wakelock only related to MIUI. It that the ROM you are using?

Please provide a BBS dump for us to have all the info.

It is quite strange that this term only pops up with your questions on google so I guess we need to investigate this with method.
[BetterBatteryStats] XlAfbk:
Why are you doing that? I used to do that back in the days when there weren't proper web-services for reading feeds so I could keep a consistent state of messages read/unread across all my devices (3 PCs then). But nowadays there's Google Reader and lots of similar services, from web services to OSS ones for your own server. (just curious, thought I was the only one crazy enough to get the RSS->IMAP idea)
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Basically I do it for the reason you mentioned: read anywhere but read only once. Over time I also have enhanced my service that is processing messages in regards to removing duplicated, adding content to the mail for the feeds that are designed to tease you to the side and mst important, I have a quite powerfull filtering and semantic tagging added to the content (using OpenCalais). Even if from a client perspective there certainly would be a way to avoid the mails the rest functionality is important enough to stick to my solution.
[BetterBatteryStats] beepsilver:
I never investigated too closely because the wakelock was not consistently high. At the time I was using Mikg 2.59Rom and Aggressive Freedom kernel. I am now using Mikg 2.61Rom and Chopsuey experimental 9.27 and never see a large wakelock from kgsl anymore. Hope this helps.
[BetterBatteryStats] fischerben:
hi

i have left my phone trough the night unplugged from the charger, and it was still 100 % this morning, but when i then use the phone it drains about 1-2 % every min. is that a normal drain?
[BetterBatteryStats] Multisaft:
I am still using stock Rom... Hmmm... Yesterday ive rooted my Stockrom, installed Su and busybox. And today, the battery_daemon is gone. To be honest, i have no idea why. Its exactly the same Rom. The only difference now is the bootloader, cwr and root.

Quite interesting. Have n eye on it and come back with bbs the Time it happens again.

Thank you very much for your app and time.
[BetterBatteryStats] yhrn:
It sounds strange that you lost less than 1% battery during the night (maybe even if in airplane mode). Perhaps the battery had drained a bit more but that had not been registered while the phone was sleeping and when you started using it it just started to catch up? For how long is the battery meter going down like that? All the time or just until it hit some specific level?
[BetterBatteryStats] Multisaft:
Its exactly the same for me. But dont be nervous, this is normal. It depends on the charging process from htc. There are some detailed information bout how this can happen, but only in German.

The point is, your phone charged your accu near to 100%, then stopped charging with your charger still plugged in, change to battery mode and Ader a few % change to chargemode back. The point is, due to the plugged power cord, your phone tells you youre still on 100% but you arent.

After playing around, the phone measured the real % of your battery and reduce your counter to its real point.

Thats all the magic behind this.

I am sure this is what you have ;)
[BetterBatteryStats] kensentme:
My SGS2 was idle for 12 hours, and I lost 30% of battery. It was in deep sleep most of the time, so i'm not sure what was going on. I'm guessing the alarm clock or bln had something to do with it?
[BetterBatteryStats] yhrn:
Looking at your kernel wakelocks it seems pretty clear that BLN is the culprit - it has kept the phone awake for over 5 hours. I would definitely disable it or possibly reconfigure it somehow. Not using BLN myself so I'm not sure what you can configure but maybe there is some setting that will cause BLN to give up after a certain time.

_____________________________________________

I have a question of my own. Has anybody else seen a bigger drain from the new Maps version as opposed to the previous? I have almost 2 hours of user land wakelocks in about 24 hours that I have never seen before:

NetworkLocationPassiveCollector (com.google.android.apps.maps.Maps): 1 h 48 m 58 s (6538 s) Count:2387 4.9%

I often see NetworkLocationActiveCollector in the stats but never for more than a few minutes.

_____________________________________________

And as a last thing - a small bug: If selecting "Since custom ref." then going to "Kernel wakelocks" and finally going back to one of the other stats the dropdown still shows "Since custom ref." but the actual times shown are for "Since charged".
[BetterBatteryStats] kensentme:
Thanks. Yeah, I disabled BLN, it's really not that important for me.
[BetterBatteryStats] fischerben:
Maybe you have right. In the begining it drain fast but that i always think it does. And then a little bit slower when it reach 80-90% and now i am on 42 % 8 hours after i began to use it.. Good or bad?

Screen on 2h 38m

Awake. 3h 59m
[BetterBatteryStats] Multisaft:
Looks like mine ;)
[BetterBatteryStats] fischerben:
Okay, and here is mine :)

What is audiooutlock ind kernel betterbatterystats, saw it was on 1.30 hour
[BetterBatteryStats] seroesh:
Since recently, I have been plagued by bad battery life on my SGS 3 I9300 and upon further review of the problem, I got BetterBatteryStats & WLD to monitor the kernel wakelocks and partial wakelocks. I know Greenify is one of the app that they say helps in such problem for rooted fones, but what's the solution for unrooted fones?

I've seen UCCW and Minimalistic texts have been preventing the fone from deep sleep and also other apps, which in partial wakelocks lies under AlaramManager (PowerManagementServices (kernal wakelock)), now if I uninstall both these apps, I would have to forgo the theming part, which I don't want to, there must be a solution.

and what about wlan_rx_wake?

I have also noticed that the kernel wakelocks vary from one app to another, sometimes it's PowerManagementService, which drains the batter and if not that then it's GoogleLocationServices.

and this hasn't been happening since a week ago.. I wonder what triggered this all.
[BetterBatteryStats] SaintCity86:
Mr juke, the audio out 2 is when you play media like music or video. During this log, where you listening to music/videos with the screen off, or on? If off, then audio out 2 looks like it accounts for 30 minutes of the hour your screen on/awake ratio is off. Your awake time should be equal to your screen on time, unless you've listened to music with the screen off. Then you factor that in, cuz the phone isn't asleep when playing music, regardless of screen power. The rest, well I skimmed tbh cuz I agree with the poster asking for the file, or maybe you could edit the post to only show the real problematic areas. Say the top 8 in partials... So on. Or even just the screens would be easy too... But that snapdragon battery guru, Imo, is garbage. And that little thing saying is saving you battery ask the way in the green, that dial, I think is bs too. But I could be wrong. I personally root and use juice defender with greenify. And my battery will drain at 1-2 percent in idle. Which is what you want. Can't do much about actually using the device lol. I use mine so much I gotta keep it next to a charger regardless. This phone addict pro app I got tells me I touch the screen 10,000 times a day on average, and that's using swipe with SwiftKey. Screen is on 6 hours out of the day. Unless I watch movies too... Anyways. Post the screens or the file next time for better feedback

---------- Post added at 03:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:00 PM ----------

Sorry about the typos, hazard of using swipe n not paying attention

---------- Post added at 03:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:04 PM ----------

I came back to plug android tuner pro too. I use that to moniter everything else with the device, including changing app permissions to exclude the permission "prevent phone from sleeping". For better idle. Until I flash Wickeds rom. Then we'll see just what I need from then on out
[BetterBatteryStats] gabriolinari:
thanks for looking into my stats...lets see...

Skype and wifi, that's on all the time when I am at work so is "OK" to show..

GTalk NOT OK, since I have uninstalled Gtalk from System Apps....I was not even aware it's on and sucking resources, where to look for those? System apps? installed apps? I don't have chrome browser at all...finally MMC related wakeloks, could it be the SD card reading over and over? a format copying back and forth data would be of any help in your opinion?

many thanks
