70% Battery Usage by Google Maps! - Optimus One, P500, V General

Any idea what's up with this? Surely this isn't meant to happen. I don't even use google maps, don't think I've even opened it ever.

EDIT: Saw that there was an update pending. Installing, will report what happens.

Mine is almost always 90% display, even though I have all of the power saving options set on my Mesmerize... My battery lasts maybe 8-9 hours, but usually more like 6-7. It's terrible. Any ideas?

Its a known bug, install autostart from market and desible the autostart option for google maps. Try this and you will get a lot more battery.

sorry to revive and thread. I installed autostart, but not sure exactly how to disable the google maps or other apps. Any clue or pointers?
TIA.

Try using titanium backup (free) and freeze google maps or , if you don't use it, delete it using the same.

Whoa. Do you have the touchscreen bug fix kernel applied? Because without that CPU usage on touching the screen is way too high and that would cause a lot more battery usage. 90% is still too much though.

And yeah, I updated to the latest version and it doesn't seem to be doing any weird stuff now. I'll keep a watch over the course of the day.

this is a bug that is stated somewhere in the thread.. either Cyanmod7 or Gingerbread. both have these problems.

[Q] Constant wakelock by *network-location-cell-update*

My battery life has always been great; usually around 30% remaining when I go to bed.
Just in the last few days however I noticed it draining very fast with minimal usage.
Tonight, I'm down to 65% after just 4 hours (25mins screen on with lowest brightness and about 6 text massages, 20 what's app messages recieved, 1 missed call)
I have a CONSTANT wakelock mostly from *network-location-cell-update*, please see the screen shots.

The only thing I've done differenty recently is switch from Launcher Pro to Go Launcher (since changed back due to battery issue) and installed a few games from the Humble Bundle.
Latitude is always switched off and I have no facebook, twitter or push email.
Although *network-location-cell-update* seems to have a huge wakelock, it looks liek it's only used 4% of the total battery....
I'm really confused!
probably been answered somewhere else but try switiching off "use wireless networks" in location and secruity
I always used to leave that switched on with no problems; however because of this problem I have switched it off the last few days and it doesn;t resolve anything.
I don;t understand how this issue can just crop up out of no where...
Do you use latitude? Turn it off it's a battery killer. I think i've seen that exact same wakelock while using latitude.

Google Services Battery Drain (Sense 5 Port)

So this has happened twice now. First on MeanBean and now on Sense 5 Port. Well here's my story
I wake up, then 3 hours later my battery life is dead. Looked at the battery consumption and usage and it was in fact Google Services.. again. I don't know how I fixed it the first time, but damn its annoying and it overheats my phone like no other. Is there a way to fix it?
Searching online I found that factory resets and all that work, as well as disabling google now, done both but still nothing. Do I just wait it out?

Clear data in Google play services and play store, then head to sync and accounts and turn Google sync off, reboot your phone, once the system is loaded go back and re-enable sync and wait for everything to sync, all of the Google services that you have selected should have a green checkmark, open play store and make sure you have the latest version... After that you should be good...

I mentioned this in the original sense 5 thread, but check your playstore version. If it is below 4.1.10, then search for a more recent version. I think there is a leaked version of 4.2.3. That should do it.

LG OPTIMUS G E970 Android OS battery drain

Hi, i have some problems with this process, in battery use from settings, the android OS has a BIG BATTERY DRAIN, this works since the phone is unplugged, and my phone haven`t deep sleep, i lose 2-3% percent per hour in better battery stats the phone is awake ALL TIME and CPU SPY show me the lowest frequency is 384mhz and deep sleep doesn`t exist HELP ME PLEASE
Have you tried turning off all non-important services and sync , and see if that helps ??
Also there are some after market applications available on play-store that prevents such wake ups , by killing them. I couldn't recall them properly but I think they are named as Deep Sleep battery saver or something similar.
You can also use android tuner , to see what are the causes behind that.(Task manager has extensive features to look and control them.)
i havent active services (auto sync off,facebook notifications off, messenger off, gps off, google location off, etc), so i dont know what happen ill try to post some screen of my battery uses, this may help, thanks man! and sorry for my english
try some app like android tuner , it'll tell you which specific process is keeping it alive . It'l give more detailed insights into the running tasks.

Anyones knows what happen with my battery???
Can't say about it just by looking at these charts . You'' have to use some third party tool that provides monitoring of system processes . It'll give some info.

Missing notifications - suggestion

I have a Mate 20 Pro, and I'm very pleased with it (except for slightly unreliable notifications).
I did a search for "optim" isation in Settings. There are 2 options.
1. The green Huawei "Optimize battery usage" which we all know.
2. The yellow "Battery optimisation" which I think is Google's.
Regarding the 2nd one, you can exclude your problematic app from battery optimisation in Google's Android. I noticed most of my Huawei excluded apps were missing in Google's Battery optimisation.
I really like Huawei's Battery app (settings), very good and informative. So, my thoughts are, could running 2 different battery optimisations be like running 2 antivirus programs?
My suggestion is to disable the problematic apps in both battery optimisers. My notifications are working fine now, so hopefully somebody else can try it. It's way easier than nuking Huawei's battery optimiser by ADB.
Worth a try at least. Apart from this, reinstalling the problematic app has helped me. (Google Keep).
Hope this can help somebody!
Hi thanks for this Could you post some screenshots?
Thanks

No option to include screenshots
It's very easy.
Go to Settings, search "optim"
2 options,
Green one is the Huawei battery App launch
Yellow one is the Google Android Battery optimisation (I think)
Disable (Google) battery optimisation for the apps which are managed manually in Huawei's battery App launch.
Somebody with problems should try this, my notifications are working fine.
I think I have found correct one :
I've attached a screen shot.
Effectively we can see green one and orange one [emoji106][emoji106]

MIUI 11/12 and Google Maps Timeline History being jumpy

Struggling to get Redmi Note 9 Pro to store my Google Maps history.
I used to have it quite smooth in Samsung A8 and other devices, but here I only get a couple dots connected with straight lines. Mostly these points are from the moments when I unlock the phone. Locked phone doesn't allow G-Maps to get the history right.
Some exclusions: when I use Maps navigation, timeline stored is very precise.
What I have tried:
- "lock" maps in task switcher
- set permissions for Maps, services, other location-related apps - to "Allow while in use" or "Allow always" (when this option is accessible)
- disable batter-saving for these apps
- share my live location permanently to my friend through Google Maps. He can see the location, but at the same time no history/timeline stored in a smooth way.
What I would like: have the Timeline with much more details stored.

Same problem here. Very annoying!
My workaround is using http://gpslogger.app and letting it locate once per minute and upload the data to my Google drive. Thus location timeline becomes reasonable accurate.

How much battery drain does this cause? (How much more battery life would you get if you disabled this)?

Hard to tell as I'm very much confined to my home at the moment and only leave for some hours. Whenever I let the phone just rest on the table, It doesn't even locate or send the location. The other problem (random freezes and reboots) didn't happy any more since I set my 2nd sim card to 3G.
