I uninstaled Facebook app last night and decidet to yous a browser for Facebook. I left Messanger on. So today on my BBS log I noticed 2 times more ALARM wakeups form com.facaebook then yoesterday whan i had Face app instaed. I was maybe only 1 min on Facebook via stock browser... :confused::confused:..

So today i bearly used a phone . only 20 min of screen..

ill postm my log and pics from today for wide analising :D :D....
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wh1t3Rose:
You still have Facebook messaging installed. It's a separate app. Uninstall it and that wakelock will go away.

Also Gtalk is killing you. Disable gtalk services in Play Services and the Google Services Framework. Use the disable service app. REBOOT!

And as for the l2_hsic kernel wakelock. You get this when you are losing service and your phone has to constantly search for service or reconnect with the cell towers I saw on the log that you had 8 minutes of no signal. Realistically you probably had double that amount of time of no signal because of the constant reconnection attempts. Solution: Airplane Mode.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] greyhd:
Is GTalk related to Google+? Reason I ask is because I use it only to browse post and currently don't have it synced. If I disable the gtalk services will the app become useless?

No I use Google + and I have gtalk services disable.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] saviora:
so i am an extremely light user. until yesterday i was on complete stock.

i got the n5 on day 1 release and received it about a week after. since the first day of use to about 2 or 3 weeks ago my battery life has been amazing - getting about 2d of battery life was frequent and getting the battery to last more than 24hrs was expected for my usage. i do not have any proof for this though.*

for about the last 2 weeks though, the battery has been draining really badly. it barely lasts 6 to 10hours now. recharging the phone seems extremely quick on the other hand, getting to a full charge in 20 to 30minutes from 1 or 2% (new charger that came with my tablet, so amps could be higher). also phone battery sometimes discharges completely when rebooting (added a screenshot of this, dropping to zero from about 34% over a reboot). it does also die randomly, without the battery low popup warning sometimes when i am sure it had enough charge on it to survive a few more hours.

i experimented with stock rom (full factory reset, even reflashed after complete format), franco kernel only and now on slimkat and franco kernel. the issue does not seem to go away.

i do not use facebook apps on the phone, all location services are turned off, sync is turned off, auto brightness off, wifi always on, mail apps are set to manual. whatsapp is the only one that is in constant use, but i have never noticed battery issues with it before.*

i have been checking the apps that are running and noticed some google play services culprits - gcmservice, locationmanager, dispatchingservice, nlplocationreceiver, google analytics. i have never bothered to notice the apps running the background before so i am not sure if they used to be active before the issue surfaced.*

i just got gsam and am posting stats from a full charge after force-stopping google play services and letting it run for a while. please advise if any further details are required.

Edit: double posted attachments
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wh1t3Rose:
I stopped reading your post after this paragraph. Sounds like you have a hardware problem. Need a replacement battery. Your battery does not charge that quickly. The technology does not exist yet. I think your battery's compacity went way down and it's only getting half way charged. This would explain the quick charge times and the low battery life times. Also explains the weird shutdowns as well. Get a new battery.

Side Note: they have discovered a technology that charges your phone in 30 seconds from a dead state. Should see it coming out in 2 years. We found this technology on accident when trying to find a cure for alzheimer's

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swat4samp:
For those who don't know, android tuner has in built services menu too. So, i guess there's no use of disable services app ;)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
That app is meh. Prefer just using Disable Service as it's lighter and most would find half the features of Android Tuner to be useless/conflicting/already have an alternative. Theoretically you don't even need an app and you can do it all with Terminal Emulator.

If you really wanted to, you could also use Tasker to disable/enable services automatically in certain scenarios.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swat4samp:
I too agree with that. Its too slow and moreover i need to dig a lot to find those receivers and services tab. But still, Receivers tab looks neatly organized though. Previously, i used autostarters app but this app shows more detailed information. And the services tab too is right next to receivers, i think i will stick to it. Nah, i'm too lazy with that terminal emulator :p Out of curiosity, how to do that?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
I think it's:

su
pm disable package.name/package.name.Service

I might be wrong though, I never really used it. Think you can also do the above with adb with adb shell.

It's also what "freezing" apps in Titanium Backup or the native "Disable" for system apps does (but the entire app instead of a service).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swat4samp:
It's kinda risky to use this method. I mean, we need to provide exact service name and for that, we need an app to know what services are triggered by that particular app.

BTW, i'm getting quite high gcm_Reconnnect and send_idle wakeups. What causes them to trigger?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Risky? It doesn't do anything if you don't enter it correctly lol. :p Disable Service provides the full service name if you click the "full name" tab (duh), but having it installed defeats the purpose of manual anyways! Unless you use Tasker to disable them automatically when you want, of course it would then be useful to find the service names.

And no idea what causes those as I haven't had wake issues in a long time (nor do I have gsam/bbs/other installed). Does it wake your device constantly when your screen is off?

If it shows up in your wake detector but doesn't wake your device when the screen is off I wouldn't worry about it.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] swat4samp:
Nope, never wakes up my device. It just shows in alarms section. Must be something related to gcmautoconnect receiver but disabling it might cause gcm to not work. So, better to not worry about it. Even since i started using BBS, i'm much worried about battery lol :D
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
If it doesn't wake your device up when the screen is off then leave it alone. It probably registers into BBS during the time your device is awake anyways lol.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ercxar:
Hey guys

Sorry for interrupting you, But I was interested in BLX feature which is called Battery Life Extender.

Every device has it's own settings for it. If you want to increase your battery life you can use BLX to stop your battery getting overcharged. It has a value between 0 - 101 in percent of battery capacity. By default it's been set on 100 which means your battery will be charge at 100% capacity everytime but If you want to increase your battery life,

I've searched many threads to find which percentage is best for our N5 but I couldn't find anything. I guess it's near 95% which I set mine to this limit.

My question is, Does somebody have any knowledge about this matter? How to find the sweet spot for this tweak cause it varies between devices.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
Won't make a difference that's significant enough to worry about unless you're going to stick with the same phone for like 5 years which I doubt.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ercxar:
Good point you mentioned. But having bad battery charging habit like leaving it overcharge every night in one year will affect it's health dramatically even in a half year period. And doing this little tweak will help it significantly.

I've had my Nexus 5 for over half a year and I've left it on the charger every single night without caring about overcharge. Still get 5-6 hours screen on time.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
I've had an S2 since it was released.. And for the past year it's been plugged in 24/7 and had its display on as a clock radio. I can still unplug it and get as good of battery life as when it was new.

So I'm calling shenanigans on that theory. :)
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
BTW.... Not sure I ever saw anyone in the t989 S2 section get better battery times than I still get on mine. ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ercxar:
My previous phone was S2 too. :high-five: I had to buy a new battery after one and a half year! I had it for four years. I used it with care in matter of battery health but I still lost the battle with it! It's not a big deal I know, but I don't want to the same thing with my N5.

I might add that my battery got swollen in that period!

Not being rude but are you bluffing? I know about its time but getting 5 6 hours on average is very rare!

Cause the average SoT I got is 4 and a half hours.

I knew most of the tweaks for extending battery life. The only things I'm still searching for is the best combo rom & kernel for it.

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Rom/kernel combo is irrelevant. They can only make a minor difference. Usually the potential is making battery worse than the norm.... Not better. Occasionally.

And every one has different luck... My S2 battery after all this time and even being on a charger constantly for near a year.... Is still as strong as day one.
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jd1639:
Not bluffing, it's not that rare
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Do everything in post 2 and 3...don't game, don't use social media apps... Use the browser for those... But not too much a day.... And 5 plus hours or 6 plus is easy. ;)

But not everyone users their phone the same or does all those things.... I'd say you're doing pretty good with 4 1/2 for sure. ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ercxar:
All checked.

And I know most of these varieties, but thanks for mentioning.

All I'm wondering is my dream rom and kernel combo and believe me it's a heavy affect on battery life.

Sent from my Nexus 5
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
To be honest, social media apps hardly use any battery if you have them Greenified/syncs killed and don't check it every 5 seconds like an addict. Lol
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] :
Lol

Nope. A rom and kernel will not have a big effect on battery. Minor at best. For serious... Ask any member with over 1000 posts... And they should agree. ?

Battery life for the most part is setup, usage and signal strength. That's it.

I've used every rom and kernel almost and get the same times with my setup and usage.

But you may chase the white whale if you choose. ?
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NotATreoFan:
I'm trying to begin the troubleshooting process myself. Installed GSAM and the root companion app from the store, and when I ran it for the first time it said the root app isn't required. Does this mean it's not going to work right? Currently on ViperOne M8 2.1.0 (4.4.3 w/ matching firmware).
[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Elluel:
As of KK, non-system can't read wakelocks, which is why the Root Companion for GSAM (Better Battery Stats also asks to move itself to system) is normally needed (or the Xposed module which lets you do the same without changing it to a system app). If you can see the wakelocks without it then I guess it's fine. Might be your ROM that has it reverted already or something.
