Just to clarify, it seems like there are 2 type of sdio_al wakelock, one which keeps the phone awake for a few mintues every few hours and only goes off when you have data on. The seconds one will keep the phone awake for a few seconds and will happen regardless.

It also seems as sdio_dmux also occurs when you have data on.

[Android General] kishke:
Raven ffs don't quote the entire thread, edit your post and delete the long quote. sdio_al is occuring from having data on(long wakelocks) and short ones are just there.

Regarding my NetworkStats wakelocks, I think it was the gmail app that was causing it. I've uninstalled it and it's been good so far. If you have that problem, give it a try.
[Android General] T.J. Bender:
Yeah, Gmail is a real vampire. So many people think it's necessary, or they don't want to set up their Gmail accounts on another app (not the XDA crowd, of course), but it's worth the 30 seconds it takes to set up a Gmail account in K-9, Kaiten, MailDroid or the stock client and use TiBu to send that Gmail app packing for good. It'll buy you that and more--lots more--back in battery life on the first cycle.
[Android General] S1nTr0p:
Hi. I am getting constant wakelock. I have installed the BetterBatteryStats app and noticed under partial Wakelocks that GpsLocationProvider is hammering my battery. it's always on preventing my phone to enter deep sleep and thus being responsible for the battery drain. I have no maps instaled.

the only solution that i found in google - to restart the phone. But procces appears when i turn on and off gps again. I am running CM9 STABLE.

Any ideas?
[Android General] kishke:
Try settings>location services and uncheck everything but the gps.
[Android General] T.J. Bender:
This. Also, download a GPS test app and see what kind of connection you're getting. If you're not able to lock on to satellites, your phone will keep searching (and chewing up battery) until you are. I generally leave my GPS off unless I'm using an app that requires it.
[Android General] basilhs1985:
i use facebook app..but hangouts? i don't even know what that is. i have never opened it.

these apps are to blame for battery drain or for keeping the phone preventing from going to sleep?
[Android General] xcrazydx:
Of course. They are very well known battery hogs.
[Android General] Perseus:
+1. These apps drain battery by keeping the phone awake in addition to unnecessory sync.
[Android General] chrcol:
most things coded by google are battery drainers I find.

google are more interested in tracking, search, always on functions than performance and battery life.
[Android General] basilhs1985:
that's strange coz deep sleep battery saver has an option for how long synching lasts. i had set it to 30 seconds and indeed the synch icon on the notification bar was visible only for 30 seconds. but the phone just stayed awake after that.

problem is solved though coz i just installed recovery img and rooteed the phone so the factory reset solved it. it sleeps when it should now.
[Android General] njstein:
Does anyone know a fix for the partial wakelock PhoneApp? I clear the cache when I see that it's holding my phone awake but it always comes back. I've done some research and it seems that it shows up when the phone doesn't disconnect a call properly but have yet to hear how to fix it. Any ideas?

Culprit Google Play Services read this article

[Android General] dibeachdude:
Whenever I am having battery issues, the first thing I do is clear settings in Google Play Services. It is usually the culprit. And before anyone suggests that I am in the wrong thread, I follow this thread because there are a lot of really good tips and explanations that apply to all Android phones. The Google Play issue is a perfect example.
[Android General] Jchef:
I disabled "show updates from google now" in notifications. Also in accounts and privacy I disabled "Web history" and "personal results". This has improved the entries refresh wakelock on my phone.
[Android General] mabomod:
Yes, there are alot of wakelocks due to Google. I actually disabled a sync options for my Google account to save battery if you haven't done so already. Hope your issues are all resolved.
[Android General] SuperiorEVOlution18:
Good write up thanks!
[Android General] Perseus:

Amazing topic. Subscribed!!!! ;)
[Android General] varunbhatbm:
Even I'm wondering what this is ?? Its being used by Google Play Services..

is this same as the NetworkLocationCallbackRunner or NetworkLocationLocator which T.J.Bender is talking about in his guide ?
[Android General] Perseus:
There are a bunch of wakelocks traced to Googpe Play Services. All of them are Location related. Yes these are all related to getting your location either via tower triangulation or by GPS.
[Android General] OGroteKoning:
Can anyone tell me what gcm_conn_alarm is? It kept my phone awake last night
[Android General] dibeachdude:
That is just a standard alarm that activates when NSA is downloading information from your phone. They are testing their new quantum computer, and they may have been using your phone as a test device to see if the new system can successfully decrypt your sensitive data. :D
[Android General] njstein:
Anybody ever encountered the wakelock "musb_autosuspend_wake_lock"? After doing some research it appears to be from the kernel. It's not killing my Tab 2 battery but it's definitely letting itself be known. Any ideas on how to combat this sucker? Thanks for any and all help!
[Android General] mhannigan:
LOL… NSA. Well at least we have an alarm now. Before Edward Snowden, the NSA could be downloading stuff from my information-rich tablet without my knowledge.

Then again, everything on my mobile devices came from somewhere on the internet. I don't want to give the NSA any ideas, but it might be easier faster to browse the internet directly. Just sayin'. I ain't lookin for no trouble though.

You'd get better (and quicker) results if you post on the BetterBatteryStats thread. This thread is a reference thread only.

To answer your problem, install System Tuner app and then follow this advice.

For deleted_wakelocks, per OP, I have to wipe phone cache and dalvik.

Well, I use Titanium Backup to wipe Dalvik but TB said there's nothing to wipe. I user Clean Master to clean all cache, but I still have thousand of this wakelocks.

Do I have to use special app to clean the "phone" cache? I don't have TWRP on my N7 or N5.
[Android General] xcrazydx:
You don't need apps to wipe.
[Android General] lanwarrior:
Then how do you clean phone cache and dalvik cache without TWRP?
[Android General] TheCybertronian:
[MENTION=285951]lanwarrior[/MENTION] you are a high risk user you need to do a ton more reading before you demolish that phone. You lack an understanding of the most basic steps and troubleshooting. I suggest you re read the stickies and go over some android basics.
[Android General] xcrazydx:
That's not an app. You're about two button presses away from brick city. Just stop messing with your phone immediately....

Now read all the stickies, read them again and then do some more research. Once you understand what you're doing, give this phone modding another shot.
[Android General] lanwarrior:
??? I am not a dev, but I am also not a newbie. I am following what OP said in the post:

deleted_wake_locks: Remember what I said above about force-stopping an app and deleting its cache and data before uninstalling it? This wakelock is why. It's the PowerManagerService for deleted apps. Once the app is gone, the wakelocks it caused suddenly become unknown to the system, so they get lumped in here. This number can also go up as the system "looks for" deleted apps and/or finds more wakelocks associated with them, but not dramatically.

To fix: Make sure to force close apps and wipe their cache and data before deleting. A reboot should eliminate the wakelock entirely. If it's still showing up,

wipe phone cache and Dalvik

.

Titanium Backup (TB) allow Dalvik Cache wiping. Isn't TB an app? What I am curious now is the wiping "phone cache".

Look, I read as much as I can but this is a technical website and I will ask question. There are times where the instructions is NOT clear, so a question will come out.

If you don't want to help, just say so.

I am not modding this phone.

WHAT is these TWO buttons you're talking about? Is there a self-destruct buttons in Android that if I press will brick the phone while running the OS? I.e. NOT in boot recovery mode, but while running the phone as normal. I am not a dev and wants to learn these "button" you are referring to.
[Android General] TheCybertronian:
Just clear the crap through recovery quit being hard headed its the most efficient and sure way. Jesus you kids and your over complication of simple tasks you don't need an app to do everything for you.
[Android General] onealvideo:
It states to clear the APPS cache and data I believe before you delete it. Not the phones cache/data...

If it still shows then wipe phone cache/dalvik...

How I am reading your OP quote. Am I crazy or is that what it says?
[Android General] lanwarrior:
That's what it say for deleted wake lock. I cut and pasted the text in my previous post.
[Android General] kapil_dheer:
Go to apps via android settings....select the respective app.......clear data, then cache......finally uninstall:)

I have suspend_backoff and per OP instructions (SEE BELOW - I cut and pasted here), there are 3 events

running thousand of time

s:

event0-592

event2-592

From Terminal, I found out that these are caused by:

USER PID PPID ..... NAME

system 592 184 ..... system_server

Anyone know what is this system_server?
[Android General] Perseus:
Most likely, its the Google crap doing some background thing. Turn off Location Service, reboot and make sure there is a stable wireless connection established and then turn the data off. Leave the phone that way for at least couple of hours.
[Android General] lanwarrior:
Week try that and post back.

I don't know if this is 4.3 issues, since I don't see it in my N5 on 4.4.2.
[Android General] epexegenesis:
From page 1 of this thread:

Just FYI anyone who might have problems with alarm_rtc, I was able to isolate the offending app immediately by going into terminal emulator and typing:

su

dumpsys alarm

which gives a list of apps using the alarm_rtc and how many times they wake the device. In my case one app had something like 190,000 wakes and the rest were like 20-30 max. So I immediately knew which app was my problem...it was a stock quote widget. Removed the widget from my home screen and phone went to sleep right away.

In my case my phone wasn't giong to deep sleep at all. The 2 offending wakelocks shown by BBS were suspend_backoff and alarm_rtc (5 hours each of the two, after 10 hours since charged).

Just thought I'd leave this here.
[Android General] lanwarrior:
I have the suspend_backoff crap on my N7 (2013), wakes my tablet for hours. I couldn't figure it out, even after uninstalling pretty much any non essentials background apps.

Interestingly, my N5 have the same apps installed and I never got that wakelocks, but I got the dreaded wlan_rx wakelocks. Go figure...

N7 have 4.3, N5 have 4.4.2.
[Android General] epexegenesis:
Your N7 is doing that on the stock ROM? That's BS, should try wiping and starting from scratch. Probably one of those Google apps settings is messed up.
[Android General] lanwarrior:
What BS? The issue or the fact I am reporting this here?

Per OP, this is MAYBE of clearing the cache before force stopping the app. Kinda suck that Android OS is so... fragile?
[Android General] Perseus:
I wouldn't say fragile, just poorly written apps that crap all over the place. I'd wipe Dalvik+Cache.
[Android General] MD500:
What wakelock it is? Battery drain is hard... And WiFi suspend policy is set to none.. Turning off wifi..same issue

How to solve?

[Android General] lanwarrior:
I meant, per OP, if the app cache is cleared WITHOUT force stopping the app, the suspend_back off issue may appear. In my case, even after uninstalling the app and rebooting. Seems like Android OS still think the app is still "there".

Yeah, do the proper procedures and you're good.
[Android General] njstein:
I have a fun kernel wakelock by the name musb_autosuspend_wake_lock. After asking Google, which doesn't offer much, i guess it has to do with USB otg, which I do not use at all. Anyone encountered this bad boy and found a fix?
[Android General] iZLeeP:
This cleared my head about AudioOut_1. Was getting excessive PWLs with AudioOut_1 even though tab is always in silent mode and all audio sounds are disabled. No noticeable battery drainage but AudioOut_1 PWL was incrementing when screen on as the number of hours screen on is the same as that of AudioOut_1. Gonna try your approach in hunting down the culprit of AudioOut_1 PWL. Thanks!
[Android General] Wh1t3Rose:
Do you use touch sounds or lock sounds? That would be why. Turn those off
[Android General] iZLeeP:
As I've earlier said, all sounds are disabled including those two, and vibrate on screen tap. I've checked other apps that require sound like mx player, mixzing, and alarm clock plus and had the volume in them on mute. Additionally, the tab is on silent mode. Still, I get ridiculously high wakelocks with AudioOut_1, and surprisingly its the same as that of Screen On time. Though, if I check battery level, there's only 1% drainage overnight in standby mode.
[Android General] T.J. Bender:
It warms my cold, dead little heart to see that this thread is still going and being actively cared for. I love you all.
[Android General] lanwarrior:
I've been reading this thread and tried everything I could to maximize my battery life:

1. Greenified ANYTHING that runs in the background: Maps, Google Play Services, Newsstand, Google Playstore, etc.

2. Turned off: Location Reporting, Location History, Google Now

3. Don't install apps that cause battery drain, like Facebook.

My battery life is only 12 hours with 3 hours screen time.

The culprit? Having 4 Google accounts, although only 1 have contacts and calendar syncing. The other 3 are just emails. Looking at various battery tools, Google still REPORT your location for EACH account, even though you turned off location services.

Under Apps Ops --> Location, you'll see that ALL Google services are running.

I guess Google FORCED the location reporting, whether you like it or not.

P.S.: I have a Nexus 7 with Jelly Bean and this doesn't happen.
[Android General] jd1639:
If you're rooted get app ops starter from the play store. You can turn off location reporting per app. I turned it off in Google play services and my phone really settled down. I now get consistently 5+ hour sot on a nexus 5. I don't use greenify or any other similar apps
[Android General] lanwarrior:
Wait, you disabled "Location" for Google Play Services in App Ops? Do you use Maps or Navigation?

The reason I asked is because if I disable "Location" for Google Play Services in Apps Ops, the location feature for ALL of Google's app will stop working --> Maps, Navigation.
[Android General] jd1639:
I rarely use maps. When I need it I just turn it back on.
[Android General] iZLeeP:
I usually turn off Location in settings but I can still use Gapps properly. Greenify doesn't guarantee that Gapps hibernate. Much like Facebook, they often surface w/o you knowing and have to greenify them manually.
[Android General] lanwarrior:
I assume you don't use Google Now, since that requires the Location Service,I believe.
[Android General] iZLeeP:
Nope, removed that, even folders (/tts, /usr/srec, /vendor/pittpatt), libraries and all sync. The only gapps installed are Gmail, Play Store, Maps, Google Play Services, Google Framework Services, Google Login.
[Android General] htcm7:

If you're using Xposed framework, you can also get the module from within the framework. Just search for app ops under download. This will then create entries for all your installed app

hi guys!

I'm facing a serious wakelock issue which I can't resolve on my own and it's driving me crazy, because it's drainig my battery very-very fast!

please help me find it's cause!

some screenshots:

pic1

pic2

excuse me, I'm not allowed to directlink from box.com as I se... :(

it is obvious, that the phone does not sleep (actually it's almost allways awake...), while BBS and WLD shows a decent amout of deepsleep (see following screenshot)

pic3

in this pic you can see a READ_DATA_WAKE_LOCK with a pretty high value (the reading is 17785), but even higher values like 200000 are not uncommon... :(((

can you please take a look at it and tell your opinions?

btw. the phone is a chinamade NEO n002i, I have never had any problems with it and the seemingly causless massive drain started about 2 weeks ago

ps.: I'm going to upload a logcat or BBS logfile a bit later!

thank you!!!
