Sorry Man but this Dump is useless, please read the OP how to produce a valifd idle Dump for analysis.

Hint, unplug the phone and dont touch it for several hours, set ref to since unplugged before taking the dump.

[BetterBatteryStats] fmifmi:
ok, guys.

after freezing some apps with tb, my log looks like that. :victory:

i think it's not bad now 0,8%/h (before i was in 5%/h). i think next i have to play with "autostarts app" to get maybe rid of some gsf-wakeups.

or do you think the actual battery drain is the best i can get? :confused:

edit: i've just seen that:

com.google.android.apps.maps (): Wakeups: 9

can't imagine why maps is causing wakeups, as i disabled gps and everything in maps?
[BetterBatteryStats] twe90kid:
does this work now?
[BetterBatteryStats] fmifmi:
hi!

i think the experts need a longer dump, at least 4h, the longer the better. 1h is not enough to get an overview of the system.

:cool:
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
You should disable all autostart from maps, then you are good.

Japp that's better, your only awakes are caused by network traffic, most probably due to this jp.naver thing.

Hey Guys can anyone look at my idle dump file? I noticed that battery is great when phone is idle, however wifi seems to drain a lot. Is there any way to investigate what's draining the battery when phone is in use? Thanks!
[BetterBatteryStats] fmifmi:
wow! how do you do that? 0,0% battery drain in 9h when phone is idle? thats a dream for me.... :crying:
[BetterBatteryStats] sirkula:
This is my sec. attempt :), I hope I did it right this time.

I charged it to 100% while phone was off, unplugged it, turned it on,run BBS (on start settings was Other, Boot, Current) didn't change anything, waited 1min.,refreshed, it seemed OK, turned display off, didn't touch it over night 9h, after that this is what i got... :)
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
Battery loss of about 0% in about 9,5 hours ... :good:

Maybe you can "optimize" Viber and Google Maps.

For Maps, you can find the link to the description of Karpfenhai in post #3.

And Viber may be a lot more active when wifi is on and running.

You can check it by recording a BBS dump during the day.

Then compare your idle dump with the "busy" dump.

---------- Post added at 10:25 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:19 AM ----------

I see the following battery drainers, which you can optimize ... maybe:

com.facebook.katana.Facebook: If you don't need it, uninstall/disable/freeze it. Or at least disable all notifications/updates/etc.

com.quoord.tapatalkpro.activity.Tapatalk: Disable all notifications/updates/etc.

com.google.android.apps.plus.Google+: If you don't need it, uninstall/disable/freeze it.

org.mots.haxsync.HaxSync: No idea what it is :confused:

Good luck !

I have another way of consistently reproducing this wake lock on my JB 4.1.1 One S: connect phone to WiFi router with functioning internet but block gtalk connection. This is what happens at my office and the wake lock takes up about 15% + 15% per gtalk account.

Please install stable latest bbs version v.1.11 and dump a file next time.

Enable partial wakelocks to be seen in bbs app.

Wlan_ctrl wake happens when your phone want to enter the wifi point you have near you.

Disable all maps entries with autostarts app.

How is it my uptime is 51m but my KWL is 2h 2m?
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
Maybe BBS could not get the reference correctly.

Is it in "Since Boot", "Since Unplugged", "Since Charged" or "Since custom ref."?

Try to change the view.

If that does not help, reboot, plug/unplug USB cable and set custom ref. next time before recording a dump file.

Good luck !
[BetterBatteryStats] RandomPooka:
Battery stats persist after a reboot, perhaps? That's how I'd read it

Or perhaps it's a total of all the kernel wakelocks, not of "real" time

my results..

hi,

I have attached my dump file.

I have had the phone unplugged for about 10 hours now and have been using it sparingly and am on 49% battery...

i'm not quite sure how to interpret the results... Is easyweather stopping it from going to deep sleep?

would be much appreciated if you could have a look?
[BetterBatteryStats] Dsteppa:
Ya I have been told that I should use v. 1.11, I had it but there were some problems (Not with the ap itself) so I installed it again now (results coming later)

What do you mean with enable partial wakelocks to be seen? Isn't that on by default? If not where can I change it.

"Disable all maps entries with autostarts app" Sorry, but that's too little info for me since it's a program I've never used before.

Some more info please.

(I've filtered the view so that I see the actual apps, but when I go to Maps (ap) the only useful thing I see are widget updating (traffic and latitude))

From my limited knowledge it seems like your device is syncing too often, that's one of the major reasons why it's not going into deep sleep for a long period.
[BetterBatteryStats] Hilmesh:
Any ideas as to why this top wake lock appears
[BetterBatteryStats] xerxesbenario:
would that be from having two exchange accounts with push?
[BetterBatteryStats] chamonix:
OK then I will have to redo some checks as I was of the opinion that pwl durations can not be and the rest was correct. Reason for that belief is that KWl power manager is unequal to the sum of pwl (minutes power manager vs hours of pwl and the minutes are consistent to other awake and to the awake / deep sleep ratio from the cpu states). In other words my picture was that all values were correct except the PWL ones.
[BetterBatteryStats] siscim23:
Probably. Exchange services are at the top of your wakelocks. Set them to poll every 5 or 10 minutes (or whatever you're comfortable with, the longer the better) to at least find out if that's the main cause.
[BetterBatteryStats] twe90kid:
Little more help!

Trying to get a little more help to help the battery drain.

[BetterBatteryStats] Melhisedek:
Guys I hope it is on topic but regarding saving battery, is it better to undervolt or to underclock? I installed Siyah kernel and you can undervolt all the CPU states by 25mV but you can underclock as well. But I kinda don't wont to miss out on any performance as I feel S3 is sluggish as it is. Just wonder if there are any noticeable pros to undervolting.

Thank you for your time!
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
Oh, you already know your biggest baterry drainer:

jp.naver.line.android (): Wakeups: 1170

Alarms: 0, Intent: jp.naver.line.android.legy.SpdyHeartbeatChecker.sendPing

Alarms: 7, Intent: jp.naver.line.android.broadcast.LineAlarmReceiver

Alarms: 1163, Intent: jp.naver.android.npush.intent.action.SUBSCRIBE

Main issue with LINE seems to be the push service. Maybe you can change the settings. I don't use this app, so I can't give a proper advice here :(

Followed by:

ccc71.bmw (): Wakeups: 150 > Uninstall/disable/freeze Battery Monitor Widget.

com.tencent.mm (): Wakeups: 112 > Maybe something to optimize too?!

com.zdworks.android.toolbox (): Wakeups: 44 > Nice toolbox, but generates some alarms.

---------- Post added at 07:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:36 PM ----------

If you know what you are doing, then yes, undervolting (UV) and underclocking (UC) can help to save some battery life.

But it can also lead to instable situations (e.g. app FCs, phone reboots, etc.) what could even lead to a worse battery life.

So I would be cautious when UV ... just setting a decent max. frequency for the CPU is less risky IMO.

But why have you bought a smartphone with a 1,2 GHz dual core processor, when you UC it?

There are cheaper phones available with a lower CPU frequency ;)

But it's always your choice. If you want to test, just do it. Make a nandroid backup before. So you can restore it, if you experience any issues.

---------- Post added at 07:49 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:42 PM ----------

Ok, your biggest battery drainer was already mentioned: Email/account sync > Change it from Exchange/Push to Pop3/Pull and manual sync.

Other things to optimize IMO:

1. Google Maps: In post #3 there is a link to Karpfenhai's description of how to "optimize" Maps. Give it a try.

2. NetworkLocaationLocator: Disable all location service options in ROM and Google settings.

As your phone seems to be not rooted, we can't see Alarms and Network stats.

So, can't really give more advices.

Ok so phone draining more then usual lately.. Obviously the two new games even with auto starts and push turned off are still giving me wake locks.. I noticed it was still excessive when the game wake locks were low so I checked other and my screen off /awake ratio sucked...

Svnet is high (I'm assuming, maybe that's normal) but what I know isn't is vbus_present... You see my usb port went basically bad to where I had to push it in hard, pull up and to the left side and wrap the cord around the phone..

I use a wall charger and rotate a few batteries yet I am getting vbus_present wake locks... Any idea on what I can do.. I reset phone, battery stats etc.. Doesn't work.. Thanks in advanced

On phone now but I'll try to update pictures later..
[BetterBatteryStats] Casanoaa:
Do this to provide an idle log:

Unplug leave phone 4 hours without touching it. Then dump a file. And let us analyze it here.

Upload it here on this forum. Use cloud system like dropbox or use pc to upload.
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
Hmm ... BBS app collects some battery stats and presents it all together in different "view" or in a dump file.

It can be used to analyze your battery stats in the manner to find apps/widgets/services/processes that prevent your phone from going into deep sleep ... in oder to change settings, remove apps, etc. to optimize the battery life.

If the first post is "messy" for you and you can't understand it, maybe BBS app is not the right app for you.

There are many other battery apps, some are free in Play store, and some may be easier to understand.

It's your decision.
[BetterBatteryStats] Melhisedek:
My bad if I wasn't clear enough. I didn't mean to underclock just undervolt. Underclocking like you said would be pointless (don't want lower performance) but undervolting would be great if it showed some noticeable gains in battery life :) So just UV here ;)
[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
UV is usually working great on android, you can also UV the screen voltage and memory, but you need a desired kernel to do so, so ask your favorite kernel Dev for your device for an interface (like extweaks or voltage control) and get started ;)

Good luck!

Dump File

Morning guys,

I was hoping to ask if someone can check out my dump.

As can be seen in the file, it's from an SGS3 (i9300) running Vanilla Rootbox (JB-4.2.1 XXDLID).

I've killed almost everything Google, trying to stop this "GTALK_ASYNC_CONN_com.google.android.gsf.gtalkservice.AndroidEndpoint". Nothing from Google is set to sync, location and maps are shut down. gTalk and G+ have both been uninstalled.

I'm stumped. I've been reading alot, but I thought I'd ask for advice from someone more experienced.

Thanks in advance! I might have more dumb questions later.

[BetterBatteryStats] Karpfenhai:
Don't worry about gsf, you can bring it down but not get rid of it.

Your main problem its background data traffic..do you have a bad connection in your area since the amount is not much?

Furthermore please upgrade to the most recent version of bbs and provide another reading.

Maybe it's worth to try another baseband, check the desired thread for recommendations.

Can someone check my log please? I see I've got problems with gsf, google maps and accuweather. Should I consider something more? Thnx in advance.
[BetterBatteryStats] Casanoaa:
You can turn off autosync/notifications on tapatalk.

Use another app than original facebook. Friendcaster or browser

Use autostarts to disable all maps entries. To get rid of alarms. Your maps would work anyway

Disable accuweather if you not use it.
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
No, check the autostarts for Google Maps (link to Karpfenhai's description is in post #3).

And disable auto-update in accuweather. Manual updates are Ok and much better for your battery life IMO.

GSF is Google Service Framework and needed for the basic system to run properly.

Some users could minimize its wakelocks and alarms by disabling some autostart options, but be careful. Disabling the wrong autostart for GSF can cause even more wakelocks and worse battery life.

Casanoaa was faster ... again :(

see the german screenshot i attached.

what i do not understand is, that there are lines with the same text, e.g. "Nach dem Start" (for after startup in german).

how do i know, which of the line(s) with the same text i have to deactivate, or how do i know what "Nach dem Start" in the 2nd line means, and how it differs to to the "Nach dem Start" in the 3rd line?

i'm a little bit confused... :eek: and don't want to do something wrong here, as i have read that especially the gsf-deactivition is sensitive.

maybe karpfenhai can help me with this, if it is german-specific? :rolleyes:
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
Or you switch your system language to English.

After seting the autostart options accordingly to Karpfenhai's or Casanoaa's descriptions, you can switch back the language to German.
[BetterBatteryStats] fmifmi:
ok, thanx, i can try that later. :good:

but still i am interested to understand what the difference between the lines with the same text is. :o
[BetterBatteryStats] It_ler:
It's quite ok IMO :good:

Some small things to opimize:

1. HD widgets

2. Try to reboot after disconnecting the USB cable. This may minimize the l2_hsic wakelock.

3. "com.acquariusoft.UpdateMe" generate some alarms. Maybe you can change settings to minimize updates.

HELP - At wits end

First off thank you Casanoa, Karpfenhai, and all those who have contributed to this thread. I have taken their advice with Autostarts as well turning off location services, google backup, syncing, etc but I am still getting massive Partial Wakelocks (over 2hr overnight).

My top 2 Partial Wakelocks by far are:

Event Log Service (Google services)

AlarmManager (Android system)

Can I do anything else??

I have attached my dump as well as Alarm dumpsys.
[BetterBatteryStats] seanpr123:
Sorry but still not fully understanding this change.

Is there a change log I can read explaining?

---------- Post added at 09:20 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:16 AM ----------

It looks like Tasker is waking up your phone the most, do you have any profiles setup continuously running through the night?

Also Reader seems to be using the most data. Whatever it's syncing through the night is causing wakeups and data use.
[BetterBatteryStats] tboooe:
Agreed Tasker is on but I am willing to live with this. gReader Pro is only set to sync every 4 hours. Over 50% of my Partial Wakelock is Google Services and Android System. I dont suppose I can do anything about these?
[BetterBatteryStats] Casanoaa:
Try my settings to get rid of event log service. Install autostarts app,

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=36432767&postcount=11995

Log out of talk and latitude in maps.

Turn off all locationsservices in rom/settings.'

Go launcher .. Edit settings for it. Disable auto updates, notifications etc.

Calendar.. turn autosync off. Use manual sync.
[BetterBatteryStats] tboooe:
Yup, I have already done that but still cant seem to get ride of Event Log Service.
[BetterBatteryStats] Casanoaa:
After you have enabled my settings did you restart your phone? have you logged out of talk. In your dump you haven't.

Also disable autosync of google account in rom/settings. Don't let tasker to sync your google account.
[BetterBatteryStats] tboooe:
I've done everything you suggested except for logging out of Talk. Why do you suggest not letting Tasker sync my account? I only have it syncing every 2 hours. By the way, I have turned off Tasker completely but still get Event Log Service and AlarmManager wakelocks. This must be a ROM issue?
[BetterBatteryStats] Dsteppa:
But the thing is:

1. HD Widgets doesn't update unless I open up the app/widget. Nothing in the app is done automatically unless I request it.

The app even has battery saving options and they are both ticked.

Don't update widgets/weather while the screen is off.

2. I actually thought about it while I disconnected the USB cable, but I didn't.

3. I've never used it so I will try to terminate all the connections to the app.

Even though there aren't many things that wake up the device it still lost about 30% in 12h without me even doing anything.

At night I'll try another test after applying update to issue 2 and 3, since I can't do anything any more to optimize HD Widgets.

I'll also use a newer battery just to get rid of any battery issues. (The stock battery isn't even 9 months young)

Thanks for the reply;):good:

Edit:

One more test that I will try is to disable Wifi before I go to bed and switch to mobile data, because it seems that looking for wifi all the time also affects my device.

The rom works nicely, but the battery drain has gone up considerably. I've not installed any data-requiring apps and done all I can to reduce power use, but it's still giving 11% per hour. The battery can only just make 8 or 9 hours from full on an average day.

I've read the first 20 or so pages of this thread. It's good to know this community can be so helpful.
