I have wifi set to turn off when phone is asleep- when i wake the phone, I see that wifi is off and it will reconnect to the AP at my house.

I lost some train of thought when switching threads but i believe Wifi was off (I know it shows on in the screenshot)- which makes me think something is amiss here in HW. that is why i am pretty sure i turned off all interfaces last night and left them off.

I also have power saving mode on for the phone.

The phone is at 51% currently- I will place it back on charger to take it to 100% then turn off all air interfaces and see what happens

That a good plan?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] lukegman:
Go into your apps and clear the data on wifi share... why if your phone is sleeping it needs to be using wifi 58 percent of the time? ...this tells me an app is waking the phone...so look and see what is causing the most wake locks...once you find the app causing the most wake locks... Delete it and reinstall... Then go into the settings of that app and set your sync to a reasonable interval... Last of all go have three hours of coffee at star bucks and use their wifi to check and see if your modem is causing the problem...

Other solutions....use sd maid and clean all system, apps, and ghost files..

Do a davlik and cache wipe in recovery

And last effort do a davlik and cache wipe with a reinstall of your rom...

Keep in mind after each step your phone will use excessive battery because it will be adding files and moving things around... SO patience is important when cleaning and installing because it may take a few full discharges and charges before it settles down and gives you a good idea of what your battery life will be like

Also I am wondering... Two days with your phone on stock... But a whole day while rom'd...i am wondering...did you play with you phone as much when stock?... I know I didn't... :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Quick thing have you wiped both caches and fixed permissions? Sometimes that will do wonders when the phone is acting up.

Also I was just pointing out it sounded like you were giving attitude. I actually figured you were just frustrated at this point. I've seen the posts in beans thread. So I wanted you to clarify before getting flamed.

The community will get this fixed. Beans had great battery life when I ran it before switching back to Eclipse so it's something going in on your phone.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nosympathy:
I have a great idea, get rid of the task killer or set it to manual. Task killers will destroy your battery life if set to auto kill.

Also do you have an SD card? Take it out for a few hours and see what the battery life is like. If it gets better then copy everything to your computer and format the card and copy it back.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Thanks for the pointers. I will respond to all the questions ( I think) here

I have done this previously (did not help)- suggested also by another response

1. Wiped Davlik cache and fix permissions

2. upgraded to 2.4.3 TWRP from 2.3.2

3. Wiped Davlik cache and fix permissions again (twice on 2.4.3)

4. I have not done anything with regard to the SD card- I will look at that after looking at the Wifi closer

In Wifi- I can see wifi direct share process in all in one toolbox but do not see an app- I would assume wifi is part of the kernel. I am not sure how to clean the cache or delete/reinstall the wifi direct share unless it's a .apk hanging around outside the /system/apps folder-update- i found it- cleared data and will let rthe phone run for a few hours

I did not play around with the Stock build from VZW- it was 2 days right out of the box with "normal" call use.

The reason I think it's a HW issue is that this si a replacement phone for the one the girlfriend cracked after having a new one from VZW for 20 days. That was the phone that could go 2 days on stock unaltered VZW. This I am sure is a refurb from the repair depot. I placed Beanstown 7 on it right after I got it (I practiced unlocking on the cracked original phone)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Thanks for suggestion- Advanced Task Killer is set to disable (no auto kill already). I will look at SD card once i look at Wifi
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Update this morning

Girlfriend used phone for maybe 30 minutes or so this morning. I have attached the better battery Stats

I noticed that Wifi is on and running most of the time- even though it is set to turn off when phone sleeps. Is the next step then to Starbucks or can I simply turn Wifi off

When i loaded Build10, I followed the instructions.

1. Wipe Data- I did not format data

2. Factory reset

3. Wipe Davlivk Cache and cache

4. Installed ROM
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Manually turn off wifi. Also do you have another battery monitor app besides bbs? Ultimately though your phone is going into deep sleep so I'm not sure what going on
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Ok will do- I do not have another app but happy to buy/try another one. I do have another battery as well.

She's out with the phone for a bit- do I need to fully charge and then turn off wifi or can I reset the battery stats (assume I can) and just turn off wifi?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Thought this was interesting- how can i fidn out what is with all the awakes
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
I turned Wifi off battery is 52% @ 4:06pm EST
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Is that better? Bbs should tell you what's keeping it awake. I asked about sket monitor because I was wondering what your 1 partial wake locks was.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Sorry let me try again- I plugged it back in to capture the UI stop screenshot and left it in
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Screenshot- just started happening today
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] kintwofan:
Known issue I guess you've just been fortunate
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Chance77:
Just my two cents...i always use titanium or romtoolbox to delete maps as google maps was draining my battery.. Also kernel can make a difference..location servives and maps keeps wifi searching and almost constantly in use and if services on and wifi off they will keep trying to reconnect. I feel running maps is a battery waste. If i need directions i will google address. Call me old fashioned but ill read,read,understand the set my path..i prefer battery life

I get almost 48 hrs out of battery with 5hrs screen...only 24 with closer to 9hrs sscreen on, was half that with locations and maps running
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Thanks- she left with the phone :)

I did notice there were like 3700 wake ups form android and 1700 from ebay- if that is pertinent i will post the screenshot
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
No much better dropped 11% in 2 hours with Wifi off.

Here are the screen shots. Some seem to indicate Wifi is trying to be used by Gmail and maps? Am i seeing that correctly?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Looks like other have same issue- related to kernel and mdm_hsic_pm0

Update- been doing some reasearch

I installed Better WIFI onOff and found a thread on fast dormancy and read about it- even though the app to disable was for SIII, I downloded and disabled it on my SII- will see how it goes today

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Well that did not help in drain- I drained at 7.2% an hour
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Did some more research- I looked back into Google synch- found some stuff there and turned it off....now the drain it at 3.5% an hour- so that would be a full day till i got to 15%. I will do some more research and recharge tonight---comments welcome
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] nosympathy:
Yeah I turn off all syncing minus contacts and browser. Do you use Facebook and email? Set it to not sync as often. Gmail push updates prolly demolish battery. I use the email app and set my 3 accounts to update every hour and never sooner. No Facebook so that helps.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
bo gnail

No facebook app and gmail is off. I did set the fast dormacy back on- seems to be a bit better but I would like to see <2% per hour drain. That is what the original stock had

I am still looking into this mdm_hsic_pm0. in the wakelocks. Ialso read the power manager service wakelock is a sum of the parts below it- not really a process or instance itself.

Are you guys running the beanstown kernel or Perseus?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
I did just look over at the phone and saw the screen come on for a milisecond- then go back blank (it was just sitting there)- how do i find out what is doing that?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Update- I killed a process (said Android Service)- that looked like a core kernel app but said what the heck. Unfortunately I did not try to trace it to what app caused it- will monitor but hopes are high

If it looks good I will reboot and find what app has the Andoid service process (it did warn that some things may not fucntion correctly when i stopped it)
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
I am still draining at 4.4%. Should I go to a BBS thread or stay here? Attached is the dump

Will be away for a few days so no update till then.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Need help still

Draining close to 4%- I see in All in one toolbox security storage taking 18% of battery and 15% CPU average. I am at the end of the line I think on Beanstown kernel. Should I try perseus?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Update- I cleaned the phone - wiped and formatted data- cleared davlick and cache-all twice

Then installed Beanstown 11- I did not restore any app data on it, just downloaded and added titanium and my sms program (handcent)

Drain rate is ~3.5%/hr- total call time is 7min, with 1 text otherwise the phone has been pretty much idle
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] Camryman:
I also thought Beans 11 used a little bit more battery than stock. I was at 3%/hour with B11 and thought I was better with stock - maybe 1.5%/hour.

On a whim and as a noob, I installed Perseus and with just the default settings, I am below 1%/hour. I was a skeptic of messing with these custom kernels, but this one is running great and the battery performance is outstanding. Give it a try if you haven't already.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
Will do was going to try that many thanks you let you know
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy Note II] delaneybob:
I am still at 3.5% drain overnight with no use. I have tried posting BBS data but it's at least to me Security Storage process- it's eating CPU like crazy. I have formatted the SD card etc even totally wiped the phone.

I am looking for ways to in the OS kill the process permanently

Cannot switch to BLUETOOTH During the Call from Speaker or Handset.

I downloade the program ModernBack_changer_2.8 on this forum, choose a new image, and click on patch, so the program create a folder with name patch, in this folder contais pictures with name of resorces, i simple open the dll on resorce hacker, and manually change the resorce with the new one, after that i overwrite the dll on my surface, reboot and its ready!

yeahhhh, for windows 8 has some apps, but for RT i didnt find anyone......maybe in the future someone make one :good:
[Windows RT General] Gotcha007:
How exactly did you do as the program ModernBack_changer is not compatible with RT ?
[Windows RT General] netham45:
You'll only be able to do a memory patch to change the image. Hacking imageres.dll would invalidate the signature on it and cause it not to load next time you rebooted, which would likely break Explorer and Metro (meaning don't do it).

I had came across a tool to do this on W8 a while ago, but I don't remember what it was called. Just be careful, don't use any tool that wants to edit any system .dll directly.

Edit: Ignore this post, I was apparently mistaken.
[Windows RT General] saarakura:
I have rebooted the surface a few times and its normal, no break =]
[Windows RT General] saarakura:
I did it on x84 pc, edit the .dll and later copy to surface.
[Windows RT General] lilstevie:
Most standard codesigning approaches only sign the code section and not the resource fork, which given this result is what I'm expecting may be happening (I've not actually checked out how codesign is implemented).
[Windows RT General] netham45:
I assumed that code signing checked the entire files, I seem to have been misinformed. Ignore my previous post.
[Windows RT General] GoodDayToDie:
I've done a little research into Authenticode signing. There are parts of the file that aren't checked. Typically they do not include things like the string tables (that is, those are checked) but image content might not be.

So I have my Nexus 4 I love it and everything is running well but I miss some of the advantages of having root. What are the biggest advantages of rooting the Nexus 4 what are the disadvantages? Can I gain root without unlocking the bootloader? I rooted only the Optimus V from virgin mobile is it all basically the same? Is there any known way to root without using a computer? Thanks for any input or suggestions you may have. it is really appreciated.
[Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] scream4cheese:
You can:

1. Install custom kernels and custom roms. (So you're telling me you only rooted the Optimus V and never installed kernels and roms?)

2. It's a different root method than the Optimus V.

3. You MUST unlock the bootloader to gain root access. Might as well unlock it. You won't needing it much unless you brick it somehow.

4. You need to root using a computer. It's not like the Optimus V, there is no special application to use to gain root.

5. The only disadvantage is you not taking advantage of it.

Here are two useful toolkits you can use to root the N4. It's very easy but if you know how to use fastboot then go right ahead.

one very big advantage of rooting is being able to install Adaway. Adaway is an app that removes ads from any other app and browser i think? that you download. If you play games like words with friends, adaway removes the ads and makes it more enjoyable to play.

I would have to recommend going beyond just root and installing a custom ROM.

Being able to have 5 buttons instead of 3 is pretty nice. Xylon G+

Calibrating the screen requires root. Nexus 4 Display Control

I double tap my screen to turn it on. Touch Control

You can adjust the DPI essentially turning up the resolution.

I can't really see any reason not to root / ROM other than fear, as if you go with stable reliable ROMs, you're not gonna break anything, just don't run Antutu, I hear it red light bricks the N4.

No. You need to unlock bootloader then root. That's the order to root the device. Unlocking the bootloader will erase everything on your phone.

I agree.

I had the Optimus V like two years ago. I really liked that phone because it had awesome battery life. But the development was total crap. There was either little or no work done on it. The software was just mediocre.

The roms and kernels in this forum are quite mature and perfect for daily use.
