Installed 1.10.5 and I still have the issue of "no reference since screen off set yet". Logcat attached. Thanks
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Just for the records, UID is not User ID, its Unique IDentifier..

Great explanation btw!

Btw, for all of us with the weird reference behaviour, i guess as soon as even will switch back to the other time format this will be solved.

Today i figured, after some discharging my battery the display went back to normal, no values have changed to normal values after loosing about 5% of battery, w/o need to replug!

Can anyone confirm this behaviour?

Not in my case. Lost 7% and Screen On is still negative. Also before I did see it was working normally but couldn't figure out what triggers that. Let's wait for 1.10.6 to get correct values back.

Hey there, Facebook plus google search are your main culprits.

Do you use chrome? If yes disable tilt scrolling under developer tools to get rid of suspend_backoff. (probably)

Your next dump should be completely idle, the current contains to much screen on time for a closer investigation :D

I know that Location_services is a big culprit, but so many apps rely on it, is there any way to tame it rather than disabling it? It's highly useful, and a bummer that it seems to keep our phones awake so much.

Any ideas on settings changes? Perhaps finding a way to not have it or apps using it to look for where you are if your wifi ip hasn't changed?
[BetterBatteryStats] Hilmesh:
Hello.

Can somebody please check attached BBS. I had a loss of almost 60% overnite without any usage. The following are the changes i made yesterday,

Moved to Wanam 12.5 from 12.3

Tried to use Phenom Extreme after fixing permissions but still did not work and hence came back to medium

rest all settings same as made in 12.3 (had 2days 5 hrs with 3hrs screen on time). FD is disabled and so are all the other requisite settings as mentioned in this thread. can you identify as to what went wrong or is this may those one off / random events.

Thanks

Chantoine,

As directed here is a log without WiFi or the Tasker profiles controlling WiFi running.

If you could take a look and advice I'd appreciate it.

Also if you could give me some directions on how and what to look out for myself in the future I'd appreciate it.

"suspend_backoff" (): 7 h 53 m 38 s (28418 s) Cnt:(c/wc/ec)2844/0/2844 44.1%

You have a serious problem here, do you have chrome installed? If yes.. disable tilt scrolling in developer tools, if not, Pray! ;)
[BetterBatteryStats] alexkno:
7h suspend-backoff!

Check with a task manager whether there is an app running in background or foreground you do not expect and that used CPU!

Had it once with an aokp based jb rom where the rommanager app caused that. Normally its caused by the rom

If you don't find anything, go back to your previous rom!

[BetterBatteryStats] friedrice21:
i would really appreciate some feedback here guys, i'm losing about 5% per hour while screen is off

some specs on my phone:

- north american galaxy s3 running FreeGS3 R6 rom and stock kernel

- all location services off

- wifi always off, running 3g data at all times with good signal

- turned off the startup on a lot of apps using autostarts apk

its really driving me crazy because the most i get out of my phone is 20hrs and this is on light usage... during the daytime when im not using the phone and screen is off it loses 5% per hour.... i've also already reset the battery stats after letting it fully charge then unplugging it then deleting the batterystats file via root explorer, then let it discharge to about 2% and then fully charge again... but still no luck so i'm getting pretty desperate here..

anyways attached here is the dump file that i made after letting it sit for 1.25 hrs... thx in advance for the input

[BetterBatteryStats] alexinna:
Information in a dump doesn't look that bad. Your phone was awake ~2 min during 1h but I do see that it lost 5% of battery life. Agree this is more then it should. Not much I can suggest for improvement. You can disable google backup and use TB. I see it used some juice:

*backup* (Android System): 4 m 53 s (293 s) Count:97 6.9%

Also it would be good if you can review Exchange and Viper settings to see if anything could be done to minimize refresh rate. After you do that please do the dump when phone at 100%.

Let me tell you my story. I do have S3 myself and optimized my phone for some time but couldn't get the good battery life. I even completely reset the phone to factory settings and installed minimum set of apps and no root but it didn't help. And I decided to call my provider and convince them to send me a new battery. Guess what new battery worked fine on the phone after I reset the stats.

Weired Battery Behaviour

Hi All,

I have a strange battery drain Behaviour.

CASE1: When Charged to 100%, my battery drains depends upon my usage. (NORMAL)

CASE2: When i charged my battery Below 90%, my battery not drains even if i am using Net, Phone call etc. After 2-3 Hours only, 1% decreases.

Today, i am in hurry to office, so i charged my mobile till 85%. for 2h and 05 Minutes, the battery percentage remains in same level.

Please refer the attached dumpfile. (ABNORMAL)

PS: I Usually charge my battery when its reaches minimum value. Always wait till drains till low level for good battery life, in order to achieve Complete Drain Cycle.

LI-ON Battery with 1400maH.

Could some one explain this strange behaviour?
[BetterBatteryStats] Cyb0rgz:
I Just searched 4-5 pages, unable to find your dump. Could you please post it for me. Thanks.
[BetterBatteryStats] Greedyfly:
Hi Cyb0rgz,

Seems the one I did try and upload failed (because the dump didn't create any information). However, here is the one from the night before. May not be as useful mind but it should indicate some flaws. I'll try another later
[BetterBatteryStats] kevindd992002:
Hi cyborgz. Can you also check my dump at post#8424? Thank you very much.
[BetterBatteryStats] alexkno:
in fact check for kernel wakelocks and partial wakelocks those with highest time.

Both identify your phone was running when screen was off.

Additionally alarms can help to identify some apps that are starting quiet often.

Example you have

Awake (): 2 h 57 m 58 s (10678 s) Ratio: 35.1%

Screen On (): 1 m 18 s (78 s) Ratio: 0.3%

that indicates that you have 2:56 room for improvement.

Now look on partail wakelocks:

NetworkLocationLocator (Google Services): 2 m 23 s (143 s) Count:92 0.5%

Tasker.UserAbsentWakelock (net.dinglisch.android.tasker.Tasker): 1 m 41 s (101 s) Count:3039 0.3%

considering the time given above it's not too bad but you can improve by switching off location in settings

Now look into kernel wakelocks:

Kernel Wakelocks

================

"wlan_rx_wake" (): 1 h 39 m 19 s (5959 s) Cnt:(c/wc/ec)2671/0/2671 19.6%

"battery-monitor" (): 48 m 21 s (2901 s) Cnt:(c/wc/ec)2920/0/2921 9.5%

"l2_hsic" (): 30 m 38 s (1838 s) Cnt:(c/wc/ec)3330/418/3330 6.0%

"alarm_rtc" (): 11 m 20 s (680 s) Cnt:(c/wc/ec)1145/0/233 2.2%

"wlan_wake" (): 9 m 29 s (569 s) Cnt:(c/wc/ec)257446/1575/0 -4.0%

"PowerManagerService" (): 8 m (480 s) Cnt:(c/wc/ec)15326/0/0 1.6%

"alarm" (): 4 m 12 s (252 s) Cnt:(c/wc/ec)1714/5/0 0.8%

You see your phone was kept awake for 1:39 due to wifi (wlan_rx_wake). plus "wlan_wake" (): 9 m 29 s. Reason can be a download, an app that sets a wifi wakelock e.g. ftp server etc), massive pushed mails/messages, a bad router or you have 'information about open networks' set in wifi settings and so on....

"battery-monitor" could be a widget or similar that reads batter infos, if so delete it. additionally a dmesg dump may help to find the culprit

l2_hsic if I am not mistaken that indicates network switches. Maybe you are in a region with bad signal. Then better set the network switching in settings to gsm only

Now: look into the alarms:

Facebook was active massivly! Either switch off notifications or better get rid of it (you can use e.g. friendcaster or use the mobile web site of facebook, it's the same what is shown in the app)

And there is com.sec.spp.push

seems to be push mailing or something like samsung push?! Better set it to pull in intervall like 30min or get rid of it

conclusion: get rid of facebook, look into com.sec.spp.push and change it or get rid of it, check your wifi settings or monitor again after the previous two steps and it may help to use gsm only for mobile data networks

I have attached a bbs dump file. I have highly kernel wakelocks on Powermanagementservice and deleted_wake_locks. Any suggestions ?

greats,
[BetterBatteryStats] alexkno:
Please check the first posts.

PowerManagaementService is the sum of all partial wakelocks

Deleted wakelocks are deleted, you may find something with dmesg output

main culprit is com.android.exchange.Exchange Services

additionally follow the help (post3) how to solve the google maps alarms
[BetterBatteryStats] Hilmesh:
Hi. yes it looks like you are right. the problem has now solved. things are back to normal. :)

Thanks
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Thats quite normal, i answered this some pages back, its all about chemistry, the ions are hot and in flow during charge, so they need time and the charge level increases still after unplugging for a while (up to 4 %). If you charge to 100 the last 3 percent are taking ages, therefore the level will decrease faster after fully charging the device.

i recomment to not charge over 95 % to save the total battery life.

regards!

[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
If someone wants to learn more about Battery and its behavior, read this --> http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries

Specific information about charging Li-Io battery, read this --> http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/charging_lithium_ion_batteries

General advice:

Simple Guidelines for Charging Lithium-based Batteries

A portable device should be turned off while charging. This allows the battery to reach the threshold voltage unhindered and reflects the correct saturation current responsible to terminate the charge. A parasitic load confuses the charger.

Charge at a moderate temperature. Do not charge below freezing.

Lithium-ion does not need to be fully charged; a partial charge is better.

Chargers use different methods for “ready” indication. The light signal may not always indicate a full charge.

Discontinue using charger and/or battery if the battery gets excessively warm.

Before prolonged storage, apply some charge to bring the pack to about half charge.

Over-discharged batteries can be “boosted” to life again. Discard pack if the voltage does not rise to a normal level within a minute while on boost.

No warranty for all tips!:)

Hi,

So far you are getting very good battery life. Your mobile is unplugged since 7 h 23 m 21 s and its in deep sleep for 7 h 15 m 47 s.

Grr..Just noticed that your file is recorded when your network signal is Null. yes, in flight mode. Personally, i encourage you to post the

dump with your normal usage state leaving the mobile idle for 5-7 hours, Based upon that some decisions can be made. The analysis from dump file may go incorrect, if you are using in abnormal state.

Could you please post a new dump file (preferably with .txt, easier for me access on the go in mobile)

PS: Please correct if i go wrong, Just a beginer here :)

Facebook will run in background and takes your CPU cycle. Even if you turn off auto sync, this app will keeps on restarting. Try to logout from facebook account under settings, check whether this app is running in background. If so, under settings-> application, select running app, facebook and force close. Now, resume your investigation about battery!! Hope it helps..
