I'm not sure, but any log is better than no log. I think there are time stamps in a logcat file, never seen one myself.

The problem may be after it leaves your control, i.e. with your cell provider, upstream internet provider, or the server you are connecting to. Still makes for a bad connection.

+1 Thanks, removed that.

Does anyone know how to identify SyncLoopWakeLock (Android System) within the logcat file? I've managed to account for all the alarm wakelocks but I cant seem to find how to pin point the SyncLoop items. What I'm trying to figure out is what the heck woke my phone up for the 3 minutes while the screen was off, right in the middle of the battery screenshot.

Better question which will help me parse the logcat file: how is a PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK identified within the logcat file? is it FastDormancy commands??? thanks again
[BetterBatteryStats] itsLYNDZ:
Here is the logcat and BBS. Im trying to determine what is eating my battery life while its just sitting there not being used during the day. I have an extended battery too and it doesnt seem to stand a chance against whatever it is.

Apparently it wont let me attach or open the logcat file.... Goddd I just want to know why my battery is dropping from 100-76% after not even using it. Even with an extended battery! Id hate to see it without!

@Sven i would like to bring up a small feature request for the upcoming version, sometimes its useful to know which kernel the users are using, so the request is to add the kernel string to the bbs dump, should be a minor change and easy to implement, thx in advance!

Not sure. You could try a different email client. You're using the default one right? I heard K9mail is good. But try others and see which one doesn't give you wakelocks.

You need to take a BBS log when you're not actually using your phone... Charge it. Unplug it. Leave it overnight. Dump the file in the morning.

Hi,

Please look at my bbs dump and suggest what to do :( battery losts only couple of hours, max 6
[BetterBatteryStats] jeremysherriff:
Many others will disagree, but get rid of Go Launcher. It used to drain my battery, same as you. I installed ADW Launcher and my battery now lasts 2 days.

Also, be careful with Go SMS - if you use the notification "reminder" setting, it uses battery while waiting to remind you. Best to disable that setting. I also disable notification "lights" and notification "pop-up" - all seem to cause Go SMS to use battery until you read the message or dismiss the notification.

Otherwise, your system looks OK. I recommend you try my suggestions above, and see if it helps you.
[BetterBatteryStats] kami2k:
ok thanks, i installed adw now lets see
[BetterBatteryStats] jeremysherriff:
Reboot, or kill the Go Launcher services, as they will still be cached or even running in the background.

---------- Post added at 06:54 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:51 PM ----------

Yes. Disable backup to Google cloud, use a local backup solution like Titanium.

Your main issue came from a stalled sync, you may have had poor coverage at some point?

Also:

Did not know that about GO. I Love GO Launcher/SMS :(

I have moved to stock ICS launcher, which comes with CM9. But it's hard to stop using GoSMS.
[BetterBatteryStats] jeremysherriff:
On your phone it might be fine, as I say may people will disagree with me. I suggest taking a test, use the stock launcher for one battery cycle, and Go launcher for another - see the difference. It might be the same for you - for me, Go was very bad. I use Go SMS, and love it. And the Launcher has great features, it was very hard to give it up.

Release 1.8RC5

Hey guys,

sorry for not being active this week but I was on a business trip. I did some work though and will be releasing RC5 tomorrow
[BetterBatteryStats] steve austin:
you are right...

you know, after looking at my battery stats I found that go launcher does eat up a bit of battery. I am looking into adw and apex, but I was wondering if you know of any apps that mimic Desktop Migrate? It lets you move launcher settings from one launcher to the next without loosing anything. The actual app, desktop migrate, does not work with Go Laucher :mad:. Therefore I would have to redo everything that i set up and that took a minute to accomplish. thanks in advance.
[BetterBatteryStats] jeremysherriff:
OK, sure, but I'd be interested in knowing what you think the issues are? Did you do some analysis of your log?

So you say "phone just sitting there" but your log shows that you had the screen on doing something for 15m and took/made phone calls for 35m:

Other Usage
===========
Awake (): 53 m 29 s (3209 s) Ratio: 16.2%
Phone On (): 34 m 52 s (2092 s) Ratio: 10.6%
Screen On (): 15 m 12 s (912 s) Ratio: 4.6%

so if you take those times away, your phone was awake for only 3-5min out of 5 hours. That's pretty good.

Your kernel wakelocks indicate you have very poor data or cell connections;

Kernel Wakelocks
================
"mmc_delayed_work" (): 10 m 49 s (649 s) Cnt:(c/wc/ec)531/49/531 3.3%
"radio-interface" (): 9 m 14 s (554 s) Cnt:(c/wc/ec)660/0/0 2.8%
"svnet" (): 7 m 58 s (478 s) Cnt:(c/wc/ec)1995/392/1995 2.4%

The phone is trying to find better cell reception quite regularly.

Your partial wakelocks indicate that your problems are related to alarms, and the alarms indicate the Blacklist app "Call Master";

Alarms (requires root)
======================
fahrbot.apps.blacklist (): Wakeups: 420
Alarms: 420, Intent: config_changed

You should disable this app and see whether your battery life increases. Also, remove Facebook and use FriendCaster, much better on battery.

Now, this is me guessing: You have a really bad ROM and/or kernel, and it needs to be updated. It's hard to tell what your phone is running:

MODEL: SGH-T959
RADIO: unknown
BOOTLOADER: unknown
FINGERPRINT: Samsung/SGH-T959/SGH-T959/SGH-T959:2.1-update1/ECLAIR/UVJFD:user/release-keys
HARDWARE: smdkc110
ID: FROYO

but if it is either 2.2 or 2.1 then I'd suggest you take advantage of the many hundred of fixes in 2.3 and update ASAP!

The issue of the blacklist app was raised in response to your previous posts I think?

how did you able to reach 2days with your fone mate? what battery are you using? the extended one? or the stock?..

by the way, BBS are for rooted phones right? is it applicable also for unrooted phones?
[BetterBatteryStats] jeremysherriff:
Without root you lose some functionality, but it'll work. Give it a go, download in 2nd post.

He's used several techniques to get 2 days - airplane mode on then enable wifi so no cell radio usage, the phone has been barely used (see awake and screen-on marks are not frequent), but also he's been very aggressive with removing background activity using BBS.
[BetterBatteryStats] legato89:
My phone drained incredibly quick at 10%. Something in the background is using battery but I don't know what.

Thx Jeremy for the explanation,

I wouldn't say barely used, got 5 hours screen on time :-)

But your right, at night I'm on flight mode, and I'm pretty aggressive in disabling things ...

[BetterBatteryStats] mzaur:
Go Launcher is not draining his battery at all. A couple of alarms is inconsequential
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
My statement about tools like JD and the fact that they can't help but amplify wakelocks is still valid. It would require a major change in android's architecture to change that
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
I assume you are talking about a widget right? well a widget should never show as a reason for wakeup as the design for widget is to use non waking alarms.

One possible reason for it to show in the system stats is that those are based on some mixed cost calculation (crap in my eyes) making them hard to read and flawed.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Yes, on 4.03 is does, I use sleep when screen is off and wifi disables when I leave home. I'm lucky not to suffer from any major wakeups due to my router so I'm pretty happy about that setting. Disabling wifi when not at home also helps me to avoid the location sniffing my gmaps

Most of your awake time is due to sync. The syncloop wakelock shows that at least one account is having problems, amplifying the awake.

The number of wakelocks caused by location is also very high. You should check your maps settings to make sure that data collection only occurs on wifi and also make sure that wifi is not on when your are not using it.

#1 and #3 data traffic

#2 audio: if you were listing to music obviously not a problem

#3 wifi wakeups

#4 only then userland

Of course #1 and #3 are an indirect effect of apps but may also be related to bad reception that you seemed to have.

My hints:

- don't leave wifi on when you don't use it: it causes a huge overhead

- get rid of the facebook client, it's known to cause large amount of wakeups

- check your yahoomail settings and see if other user have bad experience with that client. Test another one if required

- something has caused a huge amount of notifications (>2000) while you were using your phone. Those wakelocks are not the cause but a symptom of something waking up your phone very often

---------- Post added at 10:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 PM ----------

Thanks for reply.

I use WiFi when I am at work and at home and totally disable Packet Data when I use WiFi. So I leave WiFi on so that I can recieve my whatsapp messages and emails. Many say wifi uses much less battery that 3G or GPRS/EDGE. If i set wifi to be on only while screen is on and also have my packet data disabled, will i still recieve notifications while my phone is in my pocket? or will they only come through once my screen goes on and wifi is resumed so to say.

I have tried FriendCaster, alas I prefer the standard Facebook app, I am willing to sacrifice a bit of battery for this. Its not much though.

I cannot seem to find a setting to specify at what intervals to scan for new yahoo emails.

May i ask where you can see that something has caused my phone to wake up >2000 times?

Wifi is more energy efficient than cellular data but it is less efficient if wifi makes the phone wakeup. Entropy has written much more than I know about those wakeups but the part I get is that the wakeups are caused by packets interpreted by your phone. If that does not occur in a controlled environment your best chance is to have wifi turned off. The policy 'off when screen off' is a possible first step you should try, when wifi is off cell will handle push messages.

The 2000+ I mentioned are to be found in the country field of the location related wakelocks
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
This wakelock is held by the bridge service: https://bitbucket.org/Vork/android_...vices/java/com/lge/bridges/BridgeService.java

This service is a jni (native interface) communication facility with the vibratory and the modem if I believe the source. This is not something you want to freeze!

I suggest you take this to your rom or kernel thread assuming you are not running stock and assuming this wakelock is far higher than it's supposed to be (you didn't post a dump).
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
I must disagree. Freezing a jni module is not a way to proceed in my eyes. Could you elaborate on the linked article? I didn't find any relation to that wakelock.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
From this reading the deep sleep to awake ratio is pretty good. The only cause of awake I see here is caused by location. Is your gps turned on? You have wakeups caused by wifi being on so I suggest turning it off when unused. This also has an impact on the way gmaps processed location sniffing
[BetterBatteryStats] cricketAC:
I assume you are talking about my problem aka "qem_wakelock" here. The reason i didn't post dump was that i didn't even know what this was. I search alot on google but didn't find anything so wasn't sure before i know what i was dealing with. So now you and gaui told me its related to Bridge services. I will take pics and attach it so that you can see what i am talking about.

P.S: Its a stock rom. G2x recently was upgraded to 2.3.4 with a new baseband. This is stock rom with the new baseband and 2.3.4.
