Re: [APP][2.1+][18 Feb. - V1.12RC10] BetterBatteryStats

Cannot be confirmed on cyanogenmod, will test it on my colleagues nexus 4 in a few mins.

EDIT:

Works good on Stock Nexus 4 but! This guy does not have root, could you disable root features and repeat your test?

Just an Idea, are you using SuperSU 1.04 ??

Check your Alarms.

AlarmManager is just a kind of collective wakelocks for all Alarms.

Re: [APP][2.1+][18 Feb. - V1.12RC10] BetterBatteryStats

Okay, can you confirm it's working without root features?

If yes, revert to super su 0.98 and try again. If no, post a logcat and let's wait for chamonix.

Hello Karpfenhai,

Just want a second opinion on battery drain, what is the normal drain percentage per hour for smartphone with quad core such as sgs3 as yours and nexus 4?

Is 3% to 5% normal when 3g enabled?

Sorry, didt not understand "its working without root features". But i try 0.98 hours ago, but id did not work. Same message all the time.
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Re: [APP][2.1+][18 Feb. - V1.12RC10] BetterBatteryStats

I often see between 1.4 and 2.7 % while data network enabled.

But it really depends on several factors...signal quality.. Wi-Fi ... it's quite hard to tell..

Alarms is an extra/separat stats type.

If you are rooted, have enabled the root options in Advanced menu and ticked all stats in Dumpfile menu, then you should see Alarms section in your BBS dump file too.

When you are not sure about the Alarms, upload your BBS dumpfile an we have a look at it.
[BetterBatteryStats] chrone:
aha, thanks for this. exactly the same as on galaxy nexus.

this battery drain on nexus 4 really taints the experience a bit. 4.2.2 didn't cure it. :/
[BetterBatteryStats] Hexxer:
Not sure why it dont track reboots in my 4.2.2. 1 hour after a planed reboot to get that log. Did not touch the phone in this hour. No powercord around - and at the end i have to plugin usb cable.
[BetterBatteryStats] Kocai:
You're from Indonesia right? My observation is that the bad data connection in here causes a lot of overhead because the repeated alarms waking up the phone and trying to reconnect.

I'm using Nexus 4 as well and the best screen on time I can get is almost 5 hours which I think it's not bad at all. See the attached BBS dump file and you'll see the huge number of gprs data stall.

Most of the time if I use WiFi at work, I lose around 1-2% in 4 hours on standby compared to 1-2%/hour in 6 hours at home where I don't have WiFi.

This is of course just my noob observation.

You may remember me as zeepunk.

Same here with my Nexus 4. BBS V1.12 RC 8, 9 and 10 never recognize boot event. It works on the V1.11 though.

[BetterBatteryStats] adxs2:
My battery life has been pretty good lately. I was spending only 0.3% per hour during sleep (with wifi on). But now it is suddenly spending about 0.9% per hour. Im not sure what is causing this. Between these two changes i have installed Samba Fileshare (which i am disabling when not using) and Viber. As far as i know, i havent installed any other apps and i havent done any other changes.

I would appreciate if someone could identify these newly added battery spenders :)
[BetterBatteryStats] chrone:
aha! hello zeepunk! haha :D

where to see the gprs stall exactly? is it the alarm wakelock on com.android.phone?

your bbs:

nevermind i got it sorted out, poor indonesia internet connection! :/

could not find any gprs-data-stall on my bbs.

my two cents:

perhaps the gprs stall only appears if you use wifi, thus the gprs is stalled and wifi connection is used to connect to internet.

my maximum battery life tested on 4.2.2 stock is 2.5 hours screen time with 14.9 hours battery life. *sigh

6 hours screen time with 10 hours battery life if watching movies only. nexus 4 3g data consumption is really something. :/

i really have to invest on wifi router. haha

whoa, i'm envy to have your stats there, dude. :)

looking through your drain percentage per hour which was below 1% drain per hour, there's nothing wrong there. would love to have that back on nexus 4.

these might explain your increasing.
[BetterBatteryStats] k.dimitrovski:
I've just started using BBS because the battery statistics showed high "Android OS" usage.

After runnung BBS I noticed very high Kernel wakelock named "sia" but I can't find any information about that.

I've noticed some long awake periods on my device, so I marked that in the screenshot.

Any suggestions?
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
Difficult to say, as the Alarm and Network stats are missing ... no root.

Here are your main wakelocks:

ConnectivityService (Android System): Some (system) apps are connecting to the internet. Disable all auto-sync and auto-refresh options.

AudioOut_2 (1013): Disable all (key, touch, system) sounds and check voice settings.

DHCP (Android System): Some issue with your wifi?! Try to change to static IP in Advanced wifi options of your wifi connection and in your wifi router.

MAIL_SERVICE (com.android.exchange.Exchange Services): Change your mail accounts to manual pull.

AlarmManager (Android System): The culprits for this would be visible in Alarm stats ... maybe you want to root your phone now?!

AlarmManager (com.gau.go.launcherex.gowidget.weatherwidget.GO Weather EX): Disable/freeze it ... or try to change refresh option.

FaceDetectionService (Android System): Disable face unlock.

Good luck !

What is meant by "active monitoring"?

Gesendet von meinem GT-I9100 mit Tapatalk 2
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Active monitoring is to be understood as the opposite of passive monitoring. BBS in its core features does not cause any overhead because all the data is already there, just hidden and not readable. Now active monitoring adds the possibility to e.g. automatically take a reading every hours and to see exactly what has happened over time in slices of 60 minutes.

That is a feature that is not required in daily usage but useful if you need to do some in depth analysis for a period of time when you were at a specific place or doing something specific like traveling.

One the other hand it is important to understand the cost of active monitoring: it causes an overhead that in some extent will impact the reading itself and so must be used with a log of caution and only if you know what you are doing. Thats the reason why it is not on by default and subject to a warning when being enabled.

Hi all

I have a work MS Office 365 account that I need to access from my phone but would want to avoid using the default Android Exchange Email app as recommended by the seniors here because Exchange still runs in the background even if not using Push.

What app options do I have if I need to be able to sync email (don’t need push) , folders , contacts & calendars but is battery friendly?

I have created a POP3 account but POP3 does not support folders , contacts & calendars.

I can export my outlook contacts to gmail so no biggie for that.

Please provide an idle dump (at least 4 hours of doing nothing / screen off all the time) next time.

In your current BBS dump, you have Screen On (): 1 h 5 m 35 s (3935 s) Ratio: 21.8%. So the wanted and unwanted battery drainers are mixed up.

Difficult to identify the unwanted drainers.

And enable all root options in Advanced menu + tick all stats in Dumpfile menu.

Then you will get Alarm stats too.

Good luck !

You can lower your alarms by:

1. Change your Email accounts to manual pull.

com.android.exchange (): Wakeups: 156

com.android.email (): Wakeups: 105

2. Disable/freeze Google+.

com.google.android.apps.plus (): Wakeups: 15

3. Disable/freeze WhatsApp.

com.whatsapp (): Wakeups: 16

4. Disable/freeze Facebook.

com.facebook.katana (): Wakeups: 12

These are just suggestions. You have to decide which app you need and which one you may disable/freeze.

2- Disable Calendar Storage but then no cntries in Calendar

3- Google this wake lock but not much discussion

Please make sure that you use rc11, enable debug logging in advanced prefs and provide a dumpfile, a logcat and the result of 'dumpsys alarm'. The parser for Alarms needed to be changed for 4.2.2 and I do not want to exclude that there is something in the dumpsys format that causes the parser to fail.

[BetterBatteryStats] Christian_Troy:
Hello guys,

this is Peter from Switzerland. I have had the Evo3D for two months now and the first six weeks it was great. Then - without me doing anything on the phone that particular day aside from plugging it in at work to transfer some pictures - the battery drain started.

Note I have an unrooted phone on the stock rom. I was planning on keeping it that way but meanwhile it seems rooting could be my last resort. I have tried literally everything I could find on the net to stop the battery drainage. I have account sync off/manual, wifi off/3g off practically all the time. No emails setup (except for gmail), no bluetooth. Furthermore, I performed a factory reset, then didn't even log in to my google account, turned screen off and battery drain WOULD NOT GO AWAY.

I did install betterbatterystats (only app along with Batterytime to track) and noticed AlarmManager and EventLog Service at a constant 10-15% with high counts causing massive wakelocks. That is all I could observe (this is before and after the factory reset). My froyo HTC Desire has these services at about 0.5%. Sadly, this doesn't really help me.

To quantify the drop, it tends to lose 3-6% an hour when screen off. When I use the phone it would sometimes plummet shockingly fast. You can almost see the counter go down (88, 87, 85 .. many times it even skips a number). Again for comparison, before that memorable day when the drain started and on my desire, battery would lose about 0.5% per hour. My desire would run a week on standby.

Long story short, I have these questions:

- Is my phone broken?

- Is there a chance rooting, wiping and flashing another rom would help?

- Any ideas? I will make sure to post my stats later, but I'm not sure what merit there is to that right now ...

Any help is highly appreciated!
