Looking good on the new version.

I've always wished that for CPU that deep sleep appeared above the slowest clock speed and not below the fastest.
[BetterBatteryStats] Tungstwenty:
Sven,

I think the filter of the "from" and "to" spinners still need some fine tuning. I found a couple of situations:

- If you select "Current" in From, then the To spinner doesn't show any options. Should it be possible to use "Current" in From?

- In some refresh situations (at least when setting custom ref and when screen is turned off then on), if the app was left open with Current in From then the To will be populated with all entries, and (at least in my case) it will go to Boot. Current->Boot doesn't make sense, and neither does it for any other To.

- "From Custom" seems to be properly filtering the possible To's. It presented me with Current and Screen Off, and after plugging/unplugging I also got Unplugged since it's more recent. Likewise, after doing this having From Unplugged no longer displays To Custom since it's older.

Perhaps you can double check the code that lists the possible values of From so it doesn't list any entry that would have an empty To list.

Also, when something is refreshed (e.g. screen off/on) the From spinner might also need to be changed.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
The idea behind design is that whenever some reference gets changed in background (asynchronusly) a broadcast is issued and the listener refreshes both spinners. Now from what you say it doesn't seem to work consistently so I am going to look into the code.

[BetterBatteryStats] nobnut:
@BobbyLoblaw

Almost all of your wake is caused by Fast Dormancy (DataTracker-FD) being enabled. See my post earlier today where I mention it.

The rest of your wake is perfectly fine given the length of time your phone was turned on.

Sent from me to you using stuff
[BetterBatteryStats] nobnut:
That's very high... BUT it is possibly being misreported, as happens on the Sensation. It is an error with BMW.

Sent from me to you using stuff
[BetterBatteryStats] cwburns32:
I froze it and left the phone alone for probably 15 minutes and in those 15 minutes I lost 2%. I'll leave it alone for about an hour and see total drain, if it is significant I will unfreeze it. Thank you for your help though.

Also in those 15 minutes that Managewakelock: partial com.handcent.nextsms.Handcent SMS was at 12 m 32 s 15 Count 72.6%!!!! So annoying. I've looked through stats the only thing I can think it is is Auto retrieve under SMS retrieve settings, I have it checked to automatically retrieve messages... any ideas??

EDIT: Now down 4% in like 25 minutes.
[BetterBatteryStats] nobnut:
FD is a problem that may affect Handcent also. I'm not an expert with Handcent, I've never used it.

Disable FD and then test. If it is still bad we'll try something else.

You MUST reboot after FD is disabled.

EDIT: Maybe it is Handcent causing your woes. Freeze that and disable FD, reboot and test again. Then we will know that the underlying problem is related to one of them at least. It'll be easier to fix then.

Sent from me to you using stuff
[BetterBatteryStats] cwburns32:
Okay, so the drain increases dramatically when I freeze FD, so it is not that. I guess it has to be Handcent, I unchecked Auto retrieve (which defeats the whole purpose of having the popup window) and I'm going to see if that fixes anything. I'll check back later.

There is a known problem with 1.1.1.0, I'm sure it will be fixed soon.

---------- Post added at 08:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 PM ----------

OK, see how you go.

This makes no sense to me at all. But we must let the stats tell the story.

If your phone and operator support FD then you shoud not see related partial wakelocks. If by disabling FD you actually get worse performance then this is messed up. If it is Handcent causing this FD issue, then there is something seriously 'rotten in the state of Denmark'!

I normally take the position of freezing all possible contenders if I ever get a drain problem, then defrost them one at a time and see which one is the offender. At the moment, you are chasing ghosts as you are trying to freeze one at a time to see which allows drain to settle down. Logically, this is the wrong way round to be tracing bugs - you should start with a clean system and then find the problem, not vice versa.

Anyway, we'll get it eventually.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Sorry for the corrupt apk, I'll check and fix as soon I get near my pc
[BetterBatteryStats] xak944:
Thanks for the quick response! I went ahead and bought it off the market in the meantime. ;)
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Maybe OT but I remember two things about hancent:

- wakelocks because of the reminder function on incoming messages

- one case where it was stuck trying to retrieve a mms in vain, causing high wakelocks

Is the version recent and are there any similar problems? It must drain the battery within hours....

I use currentwidget...I tried BMW the other day after reading this thread...I set it for the Evo in the settings. It reported -1mA which I thought was ludicrous; rather than tinker with it, I opted to stay with currentwidget.
[BetterBatteryStats] nobnut:
Confirmed working and confirmed no FC.
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
Agreed, I was just trying to point out that the results of the dumpsys should not be used to find hotspots if there aren't any. In case AlarmManager is a top wakelock the dumpsys helps explaining the cause.

Starting with the dumpsys without knowing if there is a wakelock problem there will be tedious, prone to misinterpretation and may lead in a dead end.... in other words do the right things and not the things right.

Its a separate install, you'll have the paid version and the beta installed.

For most people, the stable/play store version is fine. It's most recommended because there are probably no issues with it. The RC in this thread are for users who frequent the thread and help Chamonix try to debug it (looking at you, Mr karpfenhai). That said, anyone can use the RC, but the stable is usually recommended

What is this i see about people saying to use POP9 instead of exchange in email?

I have stock email with my gmail account going through that, which uses exchange.

How can/do i change to POP9?

[BetterBatteryStats] Casanoaa:
You mean pop3. Delete your email and create a new email and manual set your email account . Then use pop3 in next option

My friend make an idle dump and send it.

Next enable alarms and network in bbs app before you leave your phone.

Unplug and leave your phone 4 hours without touching it and dump a file. Easier for us to read then
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
The channels in gplay are indeed a good distribution channel but what Google is completely missing is a good feedback channel with a tight coupling between users willing to test and experienced in giving feedback. That's the reason I prefer the controlled distribution here.

What I could imagine is to try pushing RCs on gplay as a kind of public beta, maybe I'll give it a try sometime.
[BetterBatteryStats] shingo86:
I think they mean pop3. Register account as a pop3 account and set refresh interval to manual. This will get rid of exchange alarm but u lose push mail. Setting to refresh every hour is no gd for battery and data usage.
[BetterBatteryStats] bobdoblo:
I have it manual anyway.

What does push mean (n00b i know:D)

Can i now delete exchange?

*NeatROM* Family Member
[BetterBatteryStats] Casanoaa:
Push is when you receive an email it popups instantly like a sms. You can delete/disable exchange but i prefer only to disabling it with TB
[BetterBatteryStats] shingo86:
Depend on how u want email to be delivered to u. If u want email to be delivered to you only when new mail come in, push or aka exchange in stock email app is the way to do but u get high exchange alarm. I disable all autostart in exchange, alarm was reduced but can't get rid totally. Pop3 will poll the email server according to the settings u set. If manual, mail will only be push to u everytime u launch the email app. Hope this helps. :)
[BetterBatteryStats] bobdoblo:
Thanks guys;)

So exchange is not needed for sms or mms then?

when i freeze it i will have no problems with anything else?

How can I fix this without uninstalling it??

[BetterBatteryStats] BootloopedMillennials:
Need some advice on what to do for better battery life. Ive been using BetterBatteryStats the last two days.

Things Ive done so far:

Found out that Kik, EasyMoney Expense Manager, and Poynt were killing my battery when sleeping. Uninstalled them and replaced them with options that dont stay away and cause wakelocks. I haven't implemented the "Google Maps fix" yet but location settings have been disabled. The only thing Im syncing is Gmail from 4 accounts, everything else is manual (contacts, calender, and etc). I have two other email accounts in Enhanced Email set to sync daily. Google Backup options are disabled in settings.

Im expecting CSipSimple to have wakes, as I have a VOIP service running all the time. So ignore that if possible.

Ive attached the dump file below. Its a bit less than 4 hrs and I woke the screen up 3 times just to see what notifications I had (thats the 18s screen on). I dont know what the GTalk stuff is under com.google.android.gsf, I have GTalk app uninstalled from my device. Could be the Google Voice app or the VOIP app connecting to the Google Voice? Also no idea why MyTracks kicked on, I dont use it nor have it setup.

Looks like I might need to uninstall Groupon and ScoreMobile, both seem to run in the background (without settings to turn them off)
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
That is correct, but you will be informed by email anyway...

---------- Post added at 12:13 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 AM ----------

Your dump looks quite good, don't worry about gtalk , it's just goggles naming for all Google service related traffic.

You are an htc user, since htc's battery chip it's not reporting battery drops after a full charge correctly (especially if you are on an extended battery) I recommend to start a measuring period at a level below 95%. On my gf's sensation with cm10 I could see this effect too. To get a fresh reference just do a short unplug action and leave the phone idle.

Regards.

@chamonix, I can now easily reproduce the bbs hold wakelock for hours while creating reference issue.

It happens only under certain circumstances.

Most probable, root implementation was not done correct but root features are enabled, in that case bbs will keep the device awake with no notification.

Disabling root features and the wl well disappear immediately.

Maybe you can add the quintessence to the faq?

It's interesting for all jelly users who are using the new introduced multi user functionality, the second user cannot gain proper root rights.

[BetterBatteryStats] BootloopedMillennials:
Thanks for taking a look.

So you recommend I unplug the device and use it (say use the browser to visit websites), then when it hits 95% kill the browser and leave it idle? I am using a slightly extended battery.

Edit:

Okay. I did a unplug, unlock device and go into settings>about phone. Battery is obviously still at 100% but Ill post a dump file in 1 hr. Ive deleted Groupon and Scoremobile. Cleared data and cache from Google Maps and MyTracks.

[BetterBatteryStats] kozmo21:
It's not a bad thing to support developers, especially ones like Sven that are still actively supporting and updating their app.

Follow directions in 1st post:

Charge the phone, unplug the cable, and turn off the screen.

Wait for about 4 hours not touching the phone. Then unlock the screen, go to BBS and save the dump.

Post your idle dump file as an attachment to your post.

If you are rooted, enable alarms.

PS

Just wanted to say thanks to Karpfenhai for the feedback to Sven on the alpha, beta and RC.
[BetterBatteryStats] BootloopedMillennials:
Ok here's the updated dump file. I followed your instructions (my edit in the last post). I also turned off GPS. Looks okay?

Ill make another one tomorrow for a longer period (let it run tonight). This time I will use the phone to around 95% and then see what happens.

[BetterBatteryStats] Hilmesh:
your dump looks good. you could still improve by ,

1 - fixing the autostarts of ebay app.

2 - MultiPDP & secril_fd-interface are related to Mobile Data. Check on whether your operator supports Fast dormancy and if not then use Gokhanmoral's app from Playstore and disable FD.

3 - Looks like you have swift key installed. it tries to access the internet. check its settings and disable all internet access for it.

Thats all from me. Hope it helps. :)

hey there,

[BetterBatteryStats] bobdoblo:
Stock is fine in my opinion.

Manual sync and there is no problems at all with wakes etc.

Only small issue i had with POP3 is it showed all emails starting oldest and nothing i could do to change to only show recents like it does in the imap setup.

You can set it up as a POP3 account so you can freeze exchange too http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=36136501

Ok... but the eBay app is working half the way it can..... and I have to force close it all the time I use it as it will start working as usual....right???

This means that it is a pull app that interrogates yes eBay server every some time, not a real push app... right??

What about leaving enabled some entries in the Gemini Startup screen??

Maybe it reduces wakeups but not push notifications.... no????
