From a wakelock point of view under those conditions or measurement I don't see anything worth taking actions. The questions are still:

1. how long was your battery life and are you fine with it or do you feel it's poor?

2. how does the wakelocks look like if you leave the phone alone a while?

If the answer to 1. is NO then you should try to optimize your screen on drain. 2. may give you some options as well in regards to overall battery life but you should consider that after 1. if you see potential there.

I last a day with about 4.5 hours of screen on. Edge open the whole time and 20% screen brightness. Cpu set to 1000mhz max and ondemandx gov using androidmeda rom. I guess its okay for me as long as i leave home and get back home with juice left.
[BetterBatteryStats] tboooe:
I know this is a bit old but I am having the same issue as you. Did you find a solution?
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
The reason the wakelock is being held is I believe because an app you run tries to do location stuff and does not deal properly with the situation of no data service being present.

From the other wakelocks I believe it's related to either Latutide or Google+. As I don't see anything about maps in the services I would bet on Google+ in your case.

There are other wakelocks generated by the same situation but not that expensive.

Basically the situation you are experiencing is the same as any user using tools as JD or green power where the data service is shut off to save power but the apps do not react on that properly and obsess about getting their data transferred instead (I've elaborated on that many times before in this thread).

Hope that helped
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
It is always cool to read from other users that they appreciate your work. Thanks for lettings us know
[BetterBatteryStats] IJskegel:
Thanks. If I disable automatic sync off Google+ will that cure the problem?

Oh, wait just let me test it. I switched it off. Will report back tomorrow morning.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
I believe not. The location use of g+ is as far as I know related to your stream and to hangouts.

Hi All,

I was wondering is my Awake ratio normal?? It seems rather high.

Stupid question, if I were to set Push for my K-9 mail. Would it mean that my Awake ratio would go up dramatically?

Cheers,

[BetterBatteryStats] tboooe:
Only one way to find out! But seriously, I would expect your awake time to increase.

Off topic, what app are you using to show the number of new emails and the numeric battery value?
[BetterBatteryStats] akira888:
Is my battery life normal?

The phone is a galaxy s II and is undervolted with ondemand governor. Using RageMod kernel. No OC

[BetterBatteryStats] IJskegel:
You are right. I tested it last night and still had the same problems.
[BetterBatteryStats] Jacky444:

[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
The led blinking is causing a huge drain in your case as it causes the phone to wake up (see alarms).
[BetterBatteryStats] jhuff83:
Guess I should just turn them all off and do the smart alerts so the phone just vibrates when I get a missed alert and pick it up. Ill recharge the phone and drop another log file after 4 hours.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
That is not specific to this app, there is no way to find out if a wakelock is preventing the device from going to sleep or if the phone is used interactively anyway.

Almost: a wakelock prevents the phone from going to seep sleep. That means holding a wakelock while the phone is in use and keeping it held when the screen goes off will keep the phone in s state where it consumes lots of energy from the point in time when the phone could potentiall sleep (when screen goes off)
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Whether blinking or vibration, the problem in your case judging by the counts is that the alert does not stop. It behaves like a recurring alarm, waking up the phone over and over. A recurring vibration would lead to the same negative effect.
[BetterBatteryStats] jhuff83:
The vibration is only suppose to come on when the user picks the phone up unless the wakelock stays on to tell the phone to do that
[BetterBatteryStats] Jester6x:
I have been getting a TON of kernel wakelocks since going to two new roms. They are modem_usb_gpio_wake and modem_usb_suspend_block. I looked through this thread and they are saying it has to do with data transfer when the screen is on or off, but how can I tell which apps are the problem? Is there a fix for these wakelocks? I would never get them in my old rom.

Thanks in advance.

Hi chamonix. Thank you for taking the time to look at the log.

I just read your post regarding the decreasing quality of errors/bug reports. Therefore I'd like to explain more regarding my issue.

After I updated the BBS app from the Play Store, when I opened it, I couldn't see the unplugged or charged or screen off (statistic type) on the main screen (please see the screenshot from my previous post.) The dropdown box showed nothing as well. I did clear app cache and data but it's still like that.

Not to mention that it crashed once which I provided you the log.

And yesterday after I charged my phone to 100%, suddenly I can see the dropdown box and else. This morning it crashed again when I woke up. I'll try and get another log if possible since I'm currently at work right now.

And to anwer your questions:

- the on boot handler of BBS is never called. Have you moved BBS to the SD?

No I haven't

-Are you using a task-killer or some other tool root that may kill running services?

No I don't.

For your info, CM9.1 uses chainsDD superuser. I checked the log yesterday and all of them showed allowed. I just tried toggling the root access and all seems well at the moment.

What I just did: I unistalled it and downloaded it again from the Play Store and it's working fine. It created a new unplugged reference and I can see all the since and to stat on the main screen. I think for me to try reproduce the problem I had yesterday is to install the previous version that was pushed on the Play Store before v1.12.4.0 and updated it via Play Store. But that may be unneccessary since I'm the only with this issue?

Let me know if I can be of any help.

AW: [APP][2.1+][19 Mar. - V1.13B1] BetterBatteryStats

Hi, I know you probably spent a lot of time on the last update, but to be honest I think it's horrible and I hate it.

Why is there no "since screen off" category anymore? Why is there an extra switch for current and custom? What does "current" even mean?

I'd be happy if anybody could answer these questions because the new interface is far from intuitive. Thanks
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Re: [APP][2.1+][19 Mar. - V1.13B1] BetterBatteryStats

I

You know, change is an ongoing process...

If you adapt these settings here you shouldn't longer worry about the current spinners.

If you do it this way:

This should reflect your since screen off reference assuming you set the custom ref and turn the screen off immediately.

But I'm sure Sven well explain his reasons later today.

Maybe we will see an revival for easier monitoring.

Hello. I m new to the hole android stuff. I ve got a S3 for a couple of months and i m not quite pleased with the battery. It runs 4.1.2 stock and i already disabled a couple of apps i dont use (includint S-voice and Google now) .

Take a look at my dump file. It was a relatively low usage, about 1 h of voice calls, 1/2 h music .

Please tell what is keeping my phone awake. Thank you in advance !
[BetterBatteryStats] Hilmesh:
Hello friend, u have stock backup active and it shows a huge count. maybe you can disable it and retry. also please take an idle + ideal dump which means full charging your phone and then leave it untouched for atleast 4 hrs. also please activate alarms in BBS as that is also important. and then post the fresh dump. See you soon.
[BetterBatteryStats] gxg10:
Hello. I charged my phone full, and then i made a voice call only, then i went to sleep. Next time i will try to leave it untouched.

[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Re: [APP][2.1+][19 Mar. - V1.13B1] BetterBatteryStats

Screen off: have you enabled the watchdog?

Why is there a "to" reference: in earlier version "to" was implicit and updated at every refresh. In order to allow eg to see what happened between "screen off" and "screen on" there was a need to introduce a "to" reference on the screen. If you want to go back to the old way of presenting data (to = current) you can set this in the advanced preferences.

In a future release I will introduce an 'expert' mode and revert some defaults to ease the use of bbs for non experts.

I have always stated that the 1.x stream was about features and not about usability. Now with active monitoring we have all the major features in place. Those will be polished in upcoming 1.x releases but at a point in time I will stop adding features and put some energy into making bbs a more instinctive too to use

FD disable?

hey guys, I've been advised to disable FD on my phone as per the information from the nightly idle log on this thread. however, i believe my carrier supports Fast dormancy. should I still disable it? thanks :)
[BetterBatteryStats] kozmo21:
If it shows a FD wakelock in your dump, you need to disable it.

---------- Post added at 12:35 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:25 PM ----------

You really need to provide an idle dump as described in the OP! If you see more than around 1 minute of screen on time, you did it wrong.

That said, before your next dump try to do the following...

Have a look at Karpfenhai's description of how to "optimize" Maps (link in post #3).

Change the FD state on your phone (e.g. with Gokhanmoral's Fast Dormancy app from Play store).

Set mail to a manual pull.

Disable facebok and use friendcaster or use browser.

If you don't need ebay app, disable.

---------- Post added at 12:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:35 PM ----------

If you're talking about instructions from post #3, it just stops the autostart of the app. Google Now will still work fine, just remember to manually stop it after you're finished.
[BetterBatteryStats] khaytsus:
FYI, I don't know if it was a fluke, a cosmic ray, bad hair day, or what...

I got up this morning, took the phone off the charger at 7:00, around 8:15 I installed DashClock and the new version of BBS.

About 2pm I popped the phone out and it was at 5% battery. WOAH. I saw no wakelocks, no CPU usage, nothing, but the phone was warm. I couldn't find any specific reason why, but I looked at System Panel (monitor) and my battery started diving right at 8:15.

I uninstalled DashClock and the dive stopped. So again, maybe just something weird with me.. I had not yet launched the new BBS version, so when I launched it around 2pm, I got a changelog etc, so I don't know if it's just that I hadn't used BBS yet or what, but I had to stop whatever it was and that seemed to do it.

3 - and sure enough, lots of wakelocks, but note that according to BBS the phone was kept awake by alarm manager 523% of awake time. Uh?

4 - but... wait... the phone was in deep sleep all the time apart from 45m when the screen was on?!?!?!
