Hi Guys,

I have noted that when using Netflix on the One V that the WiFi signal seems to improve by 2 bars, can we replicate this and boost the WiFi signal in apps other than Netflix. or is it just an illusion.

Cheers Steve
[HTC One V] Lloir:
just an illusion dude, im going to assume your not holding your phone at the bottom when your watching netflix, this is the reason why your not having issues...it's one of our many faults unfortunately

Thanks for that, My connection kept dropping out when held vertically but always watched Netflix in Horizontal mode. Will now use all WiFi tasks in

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Etyl:
It's not JB that cause the battery drain but the new features that come with it.

The biggest single cause of battery drain is Google Now. Why?

- it causes Maps/Location services to be running at all times (20 % total battery drain in my case)

- it causes Google calendar to be running almost all the time

- etc

tl;dr; With Google Now enabled expect battery time to drop by 1/3.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
Phone getting hot is usually a rouge app, but if you're actually using the phone, the screen will ALWAYS be your top consumer of battery. No way around it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nexus311:
My screen is using up a lot more battery than on 4.0.4. Just checked my battery now, after being off the charger for 2 hours and Maps has been eating up battery. Mine also gets quite hot when using it. After some mildly heavy use last night, it slowed down to a crawl.

I'm sure Google Now is helping to use a lot of battery too. Isn't this always the way it goes anyway? I had the reboots during a phone call on GB, etc. It takes a couple updates for them to get it just right. Hope 4.1.2 doesn't take too long.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bls440:
I came to the same conclusion; however I have disabled Google Now (since it is not well supported in my country) and Latitude (that has been enabled following the update) but still, battery is draining ...

As someone said earlier, battery seems to be the same while in sleep mode; but when you're using the phone it's a disaster compared to ICS.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
Yeah. More than likely Google Now, but what do people expect? It's feature heavy! I for one use Autostarts(root only) for Maps and a few others that like to just fire up for some random action taken by the user. I used GN for a bit but I don't find myself ever really using it on a daily basis.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bls440:
I wasn't expecting anything besides being able to CASUALLY use my phone during the day, at least send a few text messages before battery dies, which seems to be impossible since the update.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
I haven't actually used my phone normally yet, but what type of life are you expecting out of the phone? If you're clearing 10 hours, I'd say that's good territory. Is your phone being constantly held awake? Just crying battery drain without giving any details won't help us help you determine the issue. This phone has never had what I would call great battery management for what my usage pattern has always been. Post a screenshot of your next usage pattern and maybe I or somebody else can help you.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bls440:
Well before the update it could easily last for 10 hours+ with heavy usage and yet about 30% remaining when I'd get back home in the evening. I will re flash factory image and update again with a clean install and see if it helps.

I noticed some battery drain after updating to JB on my AT&T Nexus S, and upon checking the battery stats I found that the Mediaserver process was keeping my phone awake.

It's JB stock updated yesterday on Nexus S via OTA. I never had problems with ICS.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
You sure you still don't have a lot of stuff syncing? Even when I had a fresh install and just used the phone for a little bit, my AOS was always in the single digits of percent. How long has the phone been off the charger? If it's only been a few minutes, you need to wait a few hours and actually use the phone before making that conclusion. Grab BetterBatteryStats and you'll be able to get much more info about what's hogging the battery ;)

I noticed heavy drain in my first full day on JB, but when I updated my battery was not 100%, more like 60-something. I cycled the battery, drained it off until it killed the phone. Plugged in, charged overnight, started it up this morning, and it's used about 6-7% over the past hour and I've been using the phone constantly fiddling with Google Now trying to figure out how it works. So I'd say my usage is back to normal.

Terrible Drain on Jelly Bean Here

I am getting terrible battery drain. I could practically go all day on Gingerbread, with ICS I could get 75-80% through th day but with JB I am not really getting more than 50% through the day.

Today I did a test, I unplugged my phone at 13:10, showing 98%. By 17:30 it had dropped to 29% - Live Wallpaper is off (in fact I am using a pure black wallpaper). Sync was on, but Bluetooth and WiFi were both off. I browsed a couple of pages, watched 3 short (~3 minute) Youtube videos and checked my GMail a couple of times, reading the messages - In the whole 4 1/2 hours, I don't think the screen was on for more than 30 minutes, if that.

In my case the culprit seems to be com.google.android.exchange, but I don't use push email that I am aware of. (see attached)

Any ideas what to do?

Information about my phone

I forced the OTA update by clearing the services framework cache, then dropping the battery and sim (just clearing the cache didn't seem to work) - this was a couple of days ago. I do not have root, and the bootloader is not unlocked.

I bought the phone Sim free from The Carphone Warehouse. I am on the Three network in the UK.

For all other info, see attached.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
Double check the application to be sure. I personally disable exchange so I don't have to see it in my app drawer. I would also clear data in it too. Also, make sure you post over in the BBS thread for anymore help. For people comparing this to GB. If you're still on your same battery from launch day, that may be part of the reason. Just a thought. Since I've had this phone, the life has been the same across all three upgrades.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] escribblings:
thanks

OK. Sorry for my naivety, but how do I disable exchange? I can't see any options in GMail. Also, what is the BBS thread? I am guessing Better Battery Stats, but is that thread in the Nexus S forum, or elsewhere?

Many thanks.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
Hahaha. Yeah. I don't know exactly where it's located but I just type it into Google and it's the first hit. In order to disable native apps in ICS/JB, go to the All Apps section in applications. Just scroll down to Email, click the app and click disable. It's not the GMail app. It's the Exchange client. If you need anymore help, just PM me.

battery drain when sync on

hi,

updated two days ago my i9023 via ota from 4.0.4 to 4.1.1 and now i have a terrible battery drain. with 4.0.4 i reached about 1 to 1.5 days of normal usage... now with same setting (sync on, wifi off, bt off, google now off) the battery is drained to 50 percent in about 3h and the data exchange service takes 75 percent of total, while synced amount of data is about 400kb. when i turn the sync off the drain stops.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] escribblings:
OK

OK - maybe I do use exchange after all then. I have 1 Hotmail account - I rarely use it but need to be able to check it from time to time. Can I still do this through the email app if I have disabled it - I am guessing not.

Is there anyway to get Gmail to check my Hotmail instead?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
I believe there is a way, but I don't remember it, honestly. Have you tried increasing the sync interval? What is it set at?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] escribblings:
Glad its not just me.

I'm glad I am not the only one with exchange issues.

OK - I'll Google that.

Went into the Email app - guess what, Sync was set to push - Doh! Have set it to 1 hour (the max), lets see how that works.

---------- Post added at 11:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:44 PM ----------

OK - found out how to view Hotmail through GMail - very simple actually.

In Gmail (through web browser - don't know if it possible through the app) Select Settings > Accounts and under Get mail from other accounts select Add a mail account you own the rest is straightforward, adding username, password etc...

I have now disabled the email app. Lets hope that fixes the exchange issue. If it doesn't, I am not sure what will.

Agreed - phone is charging ATM, but the standard battery stats (not BBS) is still showing Exchange at 47% - is there anyway to wipe this so I can confirm 100% from a fresh charge/unplug that this is no longer the case, and that it is not averaging the usage over multiple charges?

Just to reconfirm - I do not have root access.

I find the battery life better than when I had ICS on my phone. Only had JB for two days so gotta see how battery plays out.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] chronophase1:
Once you charge past 90%, the battery stats should reset and you should have a fresh chart to start with.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jayjay3333:
I find it just the same. I let it drain totally and charged it full with it off yesterday. I do that once every 2 months or so. I also try to charge at about 30% left. I have the same battery that came with the phone a year and a half ago also. If there are still issues you should definitely look into BBS and see if something keeps your phone awake. Latitude, map and sync are the worst. I never use the Email app but yes that will create drain. I use Titanium Backup to Freeze annoying apps that I like to use once and a while. Just defrost, use, re-freeze.

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JoNex:
Same Issue

I am also having the same issue on my i9020t that is mentioned above. The KSMD process is constantly running at approximately 10% in the background when idle. The "Android System" bug is also present in 4.1.1 from 4.0.4 where the CPU is running for the "Android System" process at 20% - 30% when idle IF "Auto-Rotate Screen" is enabled. So in total, the CPU is constantly running at approximately 30% in the background when the phone is idle.

Battery Eating 'Google Now'

Google Now uses all our; GPS, Data conn, Map, Media Server, Sync,.. which consumes 'average' (more than LOW) power when taken separately. So imagine all of them used together! Plus processor activity and display will definitely Suck Up the battery! And since Google Now constantly monitors your behavior, the phone hardly goes even to the deep sleep mode. Overnight 5Hrs ""without even touching"" my G-Note phone, still had lost 20% battery in the morning. But after disabling the Google Now, couple of texts, Flipboard, and average use, still lost only 10% battery for 2Hrs!!! (20Hrs for 100% then) Im still monitoring my phone, but seems that Google Now is the culprit.

Additionally I switch off the GPS unless using Maps, Data stays on except night, Sync is disabled for all except GMail, separately. I hardly use WiFi.
