[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] khassanove:
Did you check the custom binary counter when u took it from your customer? Maybe someone messed it up before bringing it to u, and if u tried to flash kernel and recovery and they failed, there might be a chance that the NAND is faulty in which case it's better to send it to the service center

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simpledave:
I'm using Razr M but the battery drain so fast even though I use it just casually.. Indicated that "wakelock" contribute up to 15 percent and Android System also a lot. The screenshot is above as you can see my phone was just 19 minute on screen. >"<.. No idea why.. I was really concern about bloatware comes with the device keep running background and drain the battery. Because the Phone Idle take most battery as well :(

The Three thing in Wakelock are

Orientation Notifier

ModemStatService

Modem Fastdormancy Mornitor Service.

Screenshot included.

Does anyone knows what are those belong to and how to stop it?

Thanks
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jimmydafish:
Much more info is needed, to test if your phone has a problem remove all installed apps, charge to 100% and then check your batt stats. More likely than not something you installed is causing this.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phositadc:
Something is definitely wrong there. Wake lock should not even be showing up unless you are using some app to purposefully keep the phone awake or something. You must have a rogue app.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simpledave:
I agree

Yeah, I'm really suspicious about maybe some rogue apps run behind but no way to find out. maybe it's Viber or Whatsapp since it's always require internet connection to receive message. :mad: ... I would love to find a way to remove the bloat-software :crying: .. they ate half memory of the 8Gb Razr M, only 4.1 Gb Usable :(
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] aznguyen316:
does betterbatterystats work on this phone? I use this on my S3 to find out what's keeping phone from deepsleep. Then you can find out which apps are keeping it up.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mk1151:
It's not whatsapp - I use that as well and I get 1-2 full days on a charge.

You've got a lot of apps running in your notification tray (top left) - I'd pull them all out... or better yet, FDR and don't opt to restore your Google config then start over.

Unless you want to list every app you have installed those are my recommendations.

Non Verizon SIM?

I have the very same issues, but only on GSM as soon as I am on Wifi battery life is excellent. I am using a German SIM card (in Germany) which works well (except of mobile hot spot). So I am suspecting some internal service looking for a Verizon service, which it obviously cannot find. Any thoughts?
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] phositadc:
Go into your dialer and type *#*#4636#*#* then hit the "phone information button" then scroll down to something that says "network types"or something along those lines and choose the "wdcma preferred" option. That might stop it from looking for vzw networks.

[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasterServant:
Thanks for the hint. But that does not solve the problem. I have installed juicedefender, which in its default setting seems to solve the problem. The battery life with juicedefender seems eternal :). However, the phone is less "reactive" to email pushes etc.

I am getting the pro version of juicedefender, perhaps I can get down to the root.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pball the second:
My gf is having the same problem with her M. GSam said GMaps was wakelocked-looped...woke the thing 1,271 times in the 8 hours she had it unplugged. Auto-location reporting was turned on (wtf), switched it off but it kept dropping. ~10 hours off the cord with maybe 30 minutes use and it was at 6%. We'll see what happens tomorrow, but any ideas are much appreciated. I know more info is needed but it's kind of hard to pry into unrooted phones...we'll see.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sombody:
I had the same problem two days ago. Two words for you... FAST DORMANCY (google it). Thats the culprit and is very telling with the first picture showing the phone is awake constantly when wifi is off and mobile data is on... you can test it yourself, compare battery drop rate with mobile data on and with wifi on.

Solution

1. Root phone, unfortunately you have to.

2. Download titanium backup

3. Freeze modemstatservice

4. Freeze fastdormancy.

Let me know if this helps you.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] simpledave:
Thanks.. i just did freezing those 2 service.. lets see what will happen then... :)
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasterServant:
Can you explain why titanium backup is needed?

I stopped the modemstatservice and fastdormancy services. Hope that works. I actually did a factory reset and thought for a short moment that it has improved, but that's not the case. I can stay a whole day with quiet a lot of browsing on Wifi and us up 20%. On 3G I drain 25% in 4h
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MasterServant:
So I bought titanium backup, freezed modemstatservice and fastdormancy.

No change in battery drain. I would like to know if all the other who have the same problem are running on a verizon SIM.

Until now nothing has worked. Under normal usage, I get a flat battery in about 16h. Normal means 2calls (<3min) and perhaps 5min of browsing.
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Notrega:
I am having the same issue - coming from a Thunderbolt I am still happy with the battery as it is but if the wake lock could be resolved the battery would be awesome...

Not sure what is causing the gtalk spike as I removed that app...

ETA: running Jelly Bean leak & rooted... I also reflashed the leak wiping data, etc... with no change
[Droid RAZR M Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sombody:
Sorry to hear that this fix didnt work for you. Could you provide more info regarding your network and if possible some screenshot of betterbatterystats or something similar. Maybe *#*#4360#*#* > battery information might give me more information with regards to your problem.

Also, if you want to do really help eliminate more variables, try using ur phone on 3G without installing any apps.

I'll try to help you the best i could. :cyclops:

---------- Post added at 03:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:18 PM ----------

Maybe uninstalling gtalk and leaving an apk is causing the spike since it is trying to sync. Why not leave it on, also try reducing email refresh time to 1hr as oppose to the default (15 mins). Your battery life seems reasonable.

Wake Lock Questions:

Anyone know what the bam.dmux.wakekock is for? It says it's for a power management system but I don't know what that's supposed to do.

Also the Ssmdcnt10 wake lock?

Those are the two that are running on my phone and both are running like 36 minutes since I unplugged my phone this morning. Is this bad or is it something that I could allow to continue happening? Thx!

I froze mine and so far it has improved and I'm running the jellybean leak with root; HOWEVER my battery still drains fast and when I was on ICS my battery life was amazing so I'm actually probably going to revert back to that tomorrow. I fed the jellybean leak since it came out early last week and tried everything that I know to increase battery life but nothing works.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] kench33:
Right now I went back to an old backup of build 13 and am restoring the most up to date msgs. They seem to be loading up fine. I may end up doing a clean install. What do you usually select when restoring from tibu? I restored all apps+ data, not system data.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] annoyingduck:
On the same rom (or nightly) I restore apps+data/all system data. Different base versions (4.0 to 4.1), apps + data only, and select certain system data individually like sms+wifi passwords etc.

It doesn't hurt to try to do everything though with the migration option checked. It may hang, but won't hurt anything. Bugs can happen though, but rarely on same rom. I'm surprised your sms won't restore, I'd chime in on the rom's thread to find out why.

Also, be sure to verify (option is there) your backup after performing a batch, sometimes it misses something.

How does I set up teh linux?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
1- you dont know anything about linux. go ubuntu. we will tweak it after that. version 10.xxx (cant remember exactly).

2- you've used linux before and feel comfortable when thinking about it. go ubuntu/fedora.

3- no worries. you can troubleshoot alone when leenucks acts funny, you su everyday. go arch linux.

bottom line, it all comes to a few package versions.

make, python2, git, jdk, maybe a few others, need old versions. even in ubuntu, if you would like to start from a more updated base image, you'll need to downgrade. arch linux allows this with more freedom, since its more modular.

i havent used fedora for a few years now. used it back when red hat quit doing desktop images, didnt stay long and switched to slack.

i prefer archlinux because it's 300mb'ish iso, allows lvm, luks from live cd, doesnt have a text-based installer but install scripts, rolling release system (prebuilt packages/packages built from src using abs/aur, testing repo), customizable/modular, cli package manager (pacman ;)), systemd, grub2..

basically, if you like bleeding edge and power to yourself, try archlinux. read the wiki, begginer guide, install guide. first time i did it, i used another pc to help me go through all the steps.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] tommy.m86:
When you're interested in Linux you can take a easy to use Distro like Ubuntu.

Packetmanagement resolves dependencies autocratically and nearly each software is available as a precompiled Packet

Also such Distros are running 32 and 64bit Programms out of the box.

If you want to learn linux in deep (and have enough time to solve issues) i recommend a Distro like Arch or Slackware.

I use Slackware64 and learned a lot about Linux and the packet and library dependencies.

Because the Packetmanagement does not resolve dependencies.

Even GUI Tools are rare on this Distro, you have to struggle with config files.

Slackware is a pure 32 or 64bit Linux (can be build to a Multilib Linux).

For Example the Android SDK mainly uses 32bit.

Maybe you should try some Distros and use that one you feel familiar with.

Also there are good Resources out in the net which you should read (Filesystem Hierarchy Standard, File Permissions, Basic Shell Tools)

Google and en.wikibooks.org/wiki/LPI_Linux_Certification would be a good starting point.

You could also try some Live-CDs, mess with it and when all went wrong only reboot.

Good Luck
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jimmyco2008:
Indeed, start Ubuntu, you can even stay with it if you like. But Arch and the install guide give you a good grasp on how Linux works.

Of course, you can develop apps in Windows or OSX, and OSX and Linux are the only two that allow you to build Android from source (basically ROM development). You also need to know Java to develop Android apps, less fun than screwing around with Ubuntu lol.

Good luck!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Citizen_Snips:
Thanks for all the replies guys! Wish me luck lol.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] beekay201:
Just to give one final thought, I think Slack would be a better learning experiencing, since it's even more close to Unix than Arch. With Arch you learn a lot, that's a fact, but with Slack you understand even how libraries and dependencies work, kinda the hard way, since you don't have a package manager to take care of it for you.

I think both might be a steep (maybe too steep) learning curve, and Ubuntu will be easier but, Ubuntu does things more their way. It's Linux, but things are different. Eventually, you'll know what i mean.

sent from my i9250
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Citizen_Snips:
Thanks for the input. That's something to look into for sure. I am in no rush to just jump in and try it. I'd really like to learn everything on a basic level like that first.

I'm seriously considering about buying a tablet (in december), i am a little bit confused about Nexus 7 or the Microsoft Surface which is gonna be out sometime in November.

I heard a rumor about an updated version of JB (4.2) is gonna be out too somewhere in November. Nexus 7 has been here since July and i fear that till December it will be

old

. Since my story has been like this: I buy Desire HD, Sensation is out the next month. I buy Sensation XE, One X is announced the next week. :( I don't want that if i buy and it already has a successor within 2 months !

Anyways, Surface looks stunning but......Windows 8 ??. I read an interview of Micheal Dell saying that it might not have an impact as Nexus 7/iPad/Kindle etc etc.
