Anyone have a solution to the wlan_wake wake lock? Having to restart my phone everyday is getting really old...
[BetterBatteryStats] shiznit1:
I'm having issues with screen on/off reference points not being saved. I'm using a Motorola RAZR maxx XT910 on SkimKat build 3.2

Is this an issue of the ROM? Or KitKat ROMs in general?
[BetterBatteryStats] Perseus:
Are you sure you do not have the app already installed ? If its not, please allow installation of apps from unknown sources. That's option under security.

Typical reason is a iphone on the same Wi-Fi network. :DEither that or someone equally noisy. Make sure under Settings>Wifi>Advanced, Keep wifi on during sleep is set to never. Also uncheck Wifi Scanning always on.

Just installed CM11 nightly and it doesn't ask for root...partial wake locks say "needs root"
[BetterBatteryStats] AA1973:
Maybe because of the built-in superuser by Koush? I use SuperSU v1.93 by Chainfire on CM11 and BBS then asks for root.

How's this for a Nexus 5?

I'm trying to compare K-9 and Aqua Mail usage for one Gmail account on push, here's my question:

Let's say I have 1 minute of awake time and 30 wakelocks from K-9, whereas 30 seconds of awake time and 60 wakelocks from Aqua Mail. Is it more optimal to minimize the amount of wakelocks, of their awake time? So basically in that scenario, is K-9 or Aqua Mail better? (Both scenarios during night, no mails received)
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Are they both set up to the same idle refresh interval?

My k9 uses 1 hour.

[BetterBatteryStats] BigLisy:
Is it the advanced setting "Refresh IDLE connection: Every X minutes"? Mine is 24 (should be default, as I haven't changed it).

How would it be affected if I changed to 1 hour?

Thanks.
[BetterBatteryStats] Perseus:
Can you turn off Fast Dormancy ? Perhaps it will help. You did play music for a while and watched Youtube. Both of these do drain the battery a lot. facebook is one of the worst offenders at keeping the phone awake. Please remove it.

After disabling Fast Dormancy, please reboot then leave the phone alone overnight without usage. Post the log in the morning.
[BetterBatteryStats] lukaaa47:
hi,

thank you for your reply ... i just wanted to say that my network provider said that has fast dormancy turned on, so is it smart to turn it off on my phone?

what about that android.gms wakelock > GCM_RECONNECT ? this is also connected with fast dormancy?​
[BetterBatteryStats] notbrodie:
i've been noticing a really big wakelock: TimedEventsQueue, when I'm listening to Play Music / Pandora. It's bad enough that simply playing music is costing 8-10%/hr battery drain. I seem to remember getting much better life before.

Nexus 5 | Stock | Xposed (GravityBox, TintedStatusBar, XGEL Settings) | Elementalx/Linaro Kernels
[BetterBatteryStats] xavihernandez:
It should reduce wakelock: client only refresh IDLE connection every 60 minutes, vs every 24 minutes by default.

EDIT : be careful at your carrier network. I can't use IDLE IMAP as my carrier drops my IDLE connection...

Anyways even on manual sync I got issues to refresh for new mail. Sometimes it takes long time to sync, like 1-1.5 minutes, and I don't know why. K9 may keep a connection and use it on every manual sync. As my carrier cuts it, it takes time to realize connection has been dropped, and then it opens a new one. I really don't know, I haven't investigated source code.

Logcat seems to say connection is dropped. If someone good at logcat and want to help me finding out what's going on, I would be glad.
[BetterBatteryStats] BigLisy:
I understand it reduces wakelock, but how will my mail-receiving be affected by doubling the refresh interval?

Anyway, bonus question :D

I'm using a notification bar app that displays the battery percentage, I believe it's running a service constantly for immediate refresh. I can't find records of this in BBS, so I'm asking if generally such a task causes considerable battery drain or not.
[BetterBatteryStats] xavihernandez:
Well if you got a stable connection you shouldn't be affected. It depends on your network.

When I'm home, and connected to WiFi I can use IMAP IDLE with a refresh connection interval of 60 minutes.

But when I'm on carrier network (4G Bouygues Telecom in France), I cannot use IMAP IDLE as my carrier drops my IDLE connection. (I may success by putting a refresh interval of 1 minute maybe, I don't even know if 1 minute is not too much as I haven't tried. I have tried 6 minutes but it didn't work)
[BetterBatteryStats] Perseus:
Yes turn off Fast Dormancy. Observe for few days and then turn back on if needed.The GCM Connect is not related to Fast Dormancy. Its related to Google Hangouts. Please search this thread for [MENTION=4355376]Karpfenhai[/MENTION] suggested modifications to Google Play Service.

This wakelock is expected when you are playing a web audio stream. Source Google Code.

Please turn off Google Location Reporting and turn on Root Features of BBS under its Settings > Advanced.
[BetterBatteryStats] notbrodie:
bbs root features was already active, and I just turned off location reporting. thank you for your assistance

[BetterBatteryStats] kheno:
I started looking further:

- fix security settings

- it had not been installed before, but still searched for possible leftovers: none found

- rebooted the device

still no luck

- I've tried redownloading multiple times with no luck, but after trying it today I got it to install.

probably the wifi network I was on had some problems.

Will start evaluating. Thanks again!

I'm getting a long partial wakelock from spotify, which is just called "f". The wakelock starts after I run spotify but continues even when I'm not playing music, and the stock battery stats show spotify is using more battery than anything else, including the screen. My battery life went from 50% to 0% in about 1 hour. Has anyone else had this? I'm on a galaxy s2, slimsaber 4.4 20140227, stock kernel, if that helps.
[BetterBatteryStats] ShadowLea:
Has become entirely useless after updating to KitKat :( That's a real shame, it was a fantastic diagnostic tool! (I don't have the option of rooting.)
[BetterBatteryStats] gohamstergo:
Choose your words more carefully. BBS didnt become useless, it was rendered inoperable by Google.
[BetterBatteryStats] ShadowLea:
Which makes it useless if you're using KitKat without Root. There is nothing wrong with that description.
[BetterBatteryStats] gohamstergo:
Your wording sounds like the blame is on BBS. "BBS is useless." But I'm not going to argue about it since this doesn't help the thread. X_X

Hmm, proximity sensor points to a small red dot at the top of your device enlightened all the time, don't check in bright sunlight , if this it's the case, either your Rom / device is broken or your are using one of the mentioned features.

[BetterBatteryStats] fone_fanatic:
So what's causing it to not go into deep sleep?

My LTE is off since no LTE in the city I'm currently in. I have it set to "Preferred network type: 3G".

I'm charging it now (currently at 97%), going to let it get to 100 and then unplug and leave it be for at least 2 hours.

This time I'll do it with WiFi off.
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Oh sorry, I misunderstood your question, your awakes seems to be caused by a lot of background activity, did you read and follow the basic recommendations from op like disabling location reporting and Wi-Fi scanning?

Furthermore smart radio from gravity box could help a lot with your hugh amount of rilj related alarms, give it a try, you will need Xposed framework first.

So, do some homework before unplugging and let's see, how that goes.

Regards

Tapatalked from my Galaxy SII
[BetterBatteryStats] fone_fanatic:
I do have xposed and gravity box. I glanced through the smart radio settings but didn't have time to properly set them up.

I'm not that new to BBS, just been a while. I do have almost every app set to not update/refresh apart from a weather app thats set to update every 4 hrs.

I just disabled wifi scanning. I'll report back later with an updated dump.

Thanks for the recommendations.
[BetterBatteryStats] BigLisy:
I'm getting fairly "long" wakelocks on ConnectivityService while in Airplane mode (WiFi, scanning, all kind of locations and data connection are all off).

What causes this? Do all the apps keep trying to connect as if they don't know there's no network?
[BetterBatteryStats] fone_fanatic:
I turned off wifi scanning, let device charge to full and let it sit for 5 hours with wifi off. I did get a few texts and snaps, but I'm still happy with the MUCH better drain of 0.9%/h (vs my previous 15.3%/h when wifi was on). I plan on doing another test with WiFi on.

My highest Kernel Wakelock is

bam_dmux_wakelock (): 11 m 33 s (693 s) Cnt:(c/wc/ec)234/7/0 3.6%

I searched and found a post saying that's due to bluetooth, how could this be if my bluetooth is off?

I know

Alarms: 91, Intent: com.google.android.gms.nlp.ALARM_WAKEUP_LOCATOR

is from Location reporting, which I don't mind because I like it to be on. (location history in google's dashboard is pretty cool).

Other than that, does anyone mind taking a look and seeing if there's anything that sticks out?

Currently I'm going through the apps under "Network" and adding some to greenify like T-Mobile My account (might just uninstall that) and paperkarma and a few others that I don't think should be using background data.

Here's my dump: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/16360871/BetterBatteryStats-2014-03-01_224502943.txt

[BetterBatteryStats] mdamaged:
It looks like something was downloading, maybe in one of your browsers, that may stop on its own once whatever it is was done downloading, the other thing you may wanna try is to disable unneeded syncing in your google services, such as currents, google+, etc, in fact if you don;t use google+ or currents or whatever, you can go in and disable them in their app info section.

If you're using cloud magic for your email, there may be no point in syncing the gmail stuff either, you may also want to go into Google Play app and go into settings and disable automatic updates for all apps, don't worry you can still get updates by going to the play store manually, they will show up as updates and you can just update all from there.

Some other things may be due to bad connectivity, or wifi chatter, not really sure.
[BetterBatteryStats] mzaur:
If someone could please take a look at my dump file, I would really appreciate it. My phone was awake for 5 hours overnight, and the BBS log doesn't seem to show any wakelocks or anything. What could this mean? Usually BBS shows at least some hints, but I could be missing it... GSAM says that it's all kernel.

I'd ditch weatherbug, they are well-known for spyware, and generally awful coding and the like, would not let anything they made anywhere near anything I own, I would not be surprised if it's a good slice of your problem.

I might suggest you reduce the refresh time of the firepaper too, and would probably disable google+ if you're not using it, go through your apps and disable anything that sends analytics etc, along with the other suggestions I made in this post.

Of course, I realize you may depend on some of those services, in which case you could try greenify, or living with the loss of battery in exchange for their functionality.

What concerns me is that max17048_alert, I've no idea what that is, but it looks to be way too high.

Have to tried to see if you get better results with a stock kernel?
[BetterBatteryStats] mzaur:
Thanks for your reply. Firepaper interval is 12 hours, and Google+ is hibernated with greenify. I have been using weatherbug for a long time with no issues, but I may disable it. I'll take a look at your other suggestions, but why do you think BBS log isn't showing any actual wakelocks?
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
1. Disable all location service options (in system and Google settings).

2. Check all Google / Google+ / Google Now settings. I am sure that there is something enabled which loads some data of your phone to Google servers. (Maybe Google backup, sync of your Google account, browsing/advertiment stats, etc.)
[BetterBatteryStats] mdamaged:
I do not know the android system as well as say a developer, nowhere near in fact, but if I had to guess, I'd say it is something very low-level at the kernel level maybe, I can't help but think that max17048_alert has something to do with it, it could be hardware, signal, something in the boot.img, filesystem errors, I am just spit-balling at this point, I just really can't tell you. Sorry.

If it were me, I'd nandroid backup the whole device, and start fresh, and see if battery gets normal, if it does, at least I know it's not hardware or signal related. I just recently went through this, but lucky I have multiROM so it made testing much easier.
[BetterBatteryStats] landroidapp:
this is one of the best battery status app. thanks.
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Alerts with maxXXXXX in name do usually point to the power/currency part of the device, maybe a dirty usb connector pin could be the issue.

Hey guys,

This is a great app. I installed it after the last couple of days my phone has been losing charge at an alarming rate.

I checked my stats for half an hour and in the period my phone was in deep sleep for only 1 second and awake for 29 minutes even though the screen was off.

What are my next steps here to try and solve this?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Cheers.
[BetterBatteryStats] Perseus:
That alarm comes when Google Cloud Messenger can't log into Mothership. Please replace your kernel with another one. Are you ok if you lost notifications from Google Apps such as Gmail, hangouts etc ?

Please export a text log using the Share button on the upper Right corner. That log gets saved to /SDCARD folder. Attach that log to a post here.
[BetterBatteryStats] kaneelias:
Here is my log, left the phone untouched for an hour (would have done 4 hours but not sure I would have made it) from 100% and down to 78% within the hour. I cannot pinpoint what the culprit is but I have only suffered this in the last four days.

Hopefully someone can decifer this as I don't know what I am looking for, all I know is that even though my screen was off for an hour, the phone was awake 90% of the time.

Currently running Siyah 1.9 kernel and never had an issue till now.

If you are running Siyah, please turn off Fast Dormancy. See if that helps. I see Mediascanner active. Use "Kill Mediascanner" app to stop it. Please turn off Google Location Reporting and Google Location history. Do you have an app for Any.do ? If so, remove it please. It keeps the phone constantly awake. Also remove facebook. Do you use Google Now Extensively ? If not then please freeze or disable it. If you don't have it but have a stock launcher, then please switch to a lightweight launcher such as Apex. Reboot and post a new Idle log.

Turn off location Service, remove Yahoo weather and change to a different kernel. Post a new Idle log after reboot.

Typically its caused when you listen to music.--

You should have rebooted before going to sleep. Do leave Wireless on and connected to a stable connection. Turn off Data. If you turn off internet access completely, Android backup will drain battery like crazy.

In this log I see Youtube active so it was Idle after use. So not very good.
