Title says it all. CPU Spy revealed that (since last flash on Monday night) I had 12 seconds of deep sleep.
Can anyone guide me on how to find the culprit?
Running unofficial KG3 with CF KG3.
Thanks!
Bump. Someone must know.
try reading a few of the other threads about battery drain. Plenty of info already exists. If you have a more specific question, you're more likely to get some helpful answers.
How much more specific can I get? My phone never goes into deep sleep. I just wanna know if this is a stock issue or if it's due to an app.
Of course it is because of an app. Check which up has been running continuously.

Download Better Battery Stats, see under Wakelocks what's going on for max time. And also do post your Battery Usage graph.
Regards.

OK, I am not an expert but still saying,
Your graph is quite well and normal I think. Look at the Awake and Screen On bar, they are more or less synchronized. And look at the Wakelock stats, it's clear that you have GPS On for 24 mins, Latitude for 2 mins, now GPS hogs battery, it's clear. So by that point I think you are fine
Wanna know more, post the graphs in Better Battery Stats thread.
Regards.
Thanks for the reply but the issue is that my phone is NEVER going into deep sleep. That shouldn't happen.
Well I don't believe that CPU Spy stuff mate. If it's not in Deep Sleep then it should be Awake, but there is Black Awake spaces there, so that means your phone does enter Deep Sleep mode, or whatever it is called.
Your phone is fine, if there was a problem your awake bar should have been full blue, that's when the phone is active all the time.
Try turning off Google Latitude if you have it enabled and make sure it's the latest version.
Like I've said before. The phone is supposed to go into deep sleep. It's not. There's something wrong.
The culprit is Google Maps as I see in one of the screenshots. Freeze it with Titanium Backup. Also, turn off network location tracking.
Hmm, I can't recall WHAT did it (I tried a multitude of things) but now the phone appears to be going into deep sleep. The best way to tell is whether it takes a half a second to wake the device. I think it MAY have been the car home or whatever that comes pre-installed...
Same problem...today phone don't go to deep sleep.

None of the answers are correct. You've asked a question that has been answered in countless threads before you.
I see that from your screen shot your phone is plugged in. It has been well established that the phone never enter deep sleep when it is plugged in.

I'm new to MIUI and have search the forums but found no answer to my question so here it goes.
When I first installed MIUI it has wireless set to sleep on screen off. I changed to to never since that is what I have done on every ROM on ever phone I've used. However with that setting, the phone never sleeps. If I look at the battery it shows the phone as always awake and never sleeping. So I changed it back to sleep with screen off, however my wifi never appears to turn off when the screen is off. My phone is still showing as always awake and the wireless proxy in the settings is always on. If i turn off wireless before I turn off my screen I can see the phone actually sleeping and am getting decent battery life (though I'm still in the calibration of the battery). I'm trying to get the best battery life out of the phone (and this ROM by far is the best of all I've tried), but I'd like to keep on wifi. Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I have been running miui for about two weeks. I use wifi at home, but never away from home. I left the wifi
sleep policy on the default setting. I too noticed the phone never seems to sleep. I left it on airplane mode overnight and actually went from 92% when I put it down, and woke up to 93%. But during that period the awake in the battery stats showed as awake. It showed deep sleep in CPU spy. Here is my stats for the past 24 hours. I think miui battery stats measure "awake" differently than gingerbread's built in battery use.

It worried me that the phone was always "awake", but with the battery life being on par with the stock ROMs, I soon stopped worrying.

OK thanks. Once I'm done calibrating ill do some tests. With wifi on it seemed to be draining my battery fast but its not calibrated yet so maybe that was it.

By the way what theme are you running? Its looks like what I've been looking for but haven't been able to find yet.
Sent from my GT-P7310 using Tapatalk
I set out looking for a gingerbread green aospish theme (my goal was S8's theme). I could not find anything the color I want with icons that weren't confusing to read. I found this ICS theme on the Android theme subforum. Its near perfect, and really complete. If I could get the ICS blue traded for GB green I would be in heaven. The only part of the theme I don't use is the lockscreen, I liked the one that was default better. The SGS II theme is there is pretty good too, really close to the stock themeing.

This is the Q&A section of the board. You made a statement.
Apart from getting roughly 3 hrs of screen on time with around 63% of battery (this based purely on your screen shot & may not be entirely accurate given the complete lack of detail you've provided), this tells us pretty much nothing about your usage.
Well you've probably had about 3 hours screen time + 3g + Bluetooth on and connected as well. Seems fair to me.
Anyway, with so many battery related threads why not just post there instead of starting a new thread?
Sent from my GT-I9100T
Really, what for new thread?
Not clearly...
Turn on GSM-only in the network settings. Turn off bluetooth and auto-brightness. Sync and background data also sucks the hell out of your battery ^^
this is my usage. the battery keeps reducing even during idle, with no wakelocks, by around 3% an hour. i've set the setting to gsm only, turned off wifi & bluetooth, turned off auto syncing, but its still like this.
and in the 2nd attachment picture is the rom i'm using
any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks
looks good but how is your on screen time?
is that considered good? cause i've seen a straight line (only losing 1 to 2% over 8 hours) during screen off time. i don't quite like it now cause i always fully charge before sleep, and when i woke up it only remains 70%....
on screen time, i've never fully use from 100% to dead, so cant be sure...
Try the JuiceDefender application (Market). The free version is good enough to help you out. I use the ultimate version and using my phone all day long (3g, internet, sync, gps) I can easily got 40% to 50% left at night (full charge in the morning).
i dun think i'll need juice defender...i always do everything it does (i.e turning off 3g, wifi, bluetooth, sync, gps) when not in use...
You need autostarts, I paid for it and its made having my phone possible.
Sent from my Inspire 4G using xda premium
Don't use Juice Defender. Unless you want to use more battery. It uses far more juice than it claims to save if many people on XDA's experience using it holds true. Plus, as Thonney quite rightly pointed out, many (most) of us already do the things it does manually which takes all of a few seconds & costs zero battery.
When I used NT unrooted, it's still battery level while unused 3-4 days, but when I root it with Indirect method and install some apps, the battery remain 60% after 2 days unused :|, I've tried some "kill process" app but it's seem didn't work . Any suggestion? Sorry because I'm newbie
Im afraid one or some apps waste your most of power
you should check it one by one yourself
once time, I got a theme of go launcher from market
but I found power droped 20%-30% per hour(just unused)
when I uninstalled it , it came back to normal
I've got a question about strange battery behavior.
This is my battery use graphic

There is no mistake, charge level raises when my NT's screen is switched off, is it a normal behavior for NT, or just an app glitch?
Can it be somehow connected with that after I plugged my NT into PC via generic microUSB cable charge level jumped from ~80% to 100% in a minute?

Most batteries will recover a portion of their apparent charge if given the opportunity to relax. {Electrons are able to move from deeper within the battery media and gather near the surface.} (There may be an algorithm issue as well, not sure.)

Thanks for the answer, but it still seems strange, I am used to self-discharging batteries, not to the opposite. Also I didn't see something like this happening with Nook Color or mobile phones.

I did have the same with Nook Color, but I still have no idea why it happens and what the consequences are.
I would try to see which app is keeping the tablet "awake" when the screen is off.
(I know you don't have CM7 installed, but if you ever do...there is a utility in CM7 spare parts in battery history that lists apps by Partial awake usage that I check to see whats keeping it awake.)

FYI, Spare Parts can be downloaded from the market. It's not special to CM.
So since I can't get a hold of my phone right now, I'll explain with an illustration done in Photoshop

My battery graph goes a bit like this.
As you can see, the first green segment is the normal drain rate while my phone is in deep sleep. Say, if I restart the phone, and just leave it to sleep without touching it, the graph would go down at this rate. This rate is pretty good for me, usually a 1% can last 4 hours.
The blue segment is the drain rate while browsing with wifi. The drawing is only an approximate illustration, but needless to say this drain rate is much faster than the green drain rate. I can get 5 hours with wifi browsing, with equates to 1% every 3 minutes. It's not too bad I think.
The problem here is, after browsing (or doing anything) over wifi, the battery curve would go weird. When I'm done with browsing, I always turn wifi off. What I would expect was that the battery curve would immediately return to the normal deep sleep drain - the green line. And yes it should, because as CPUSpy shows, the phone deep sleeps perfectly. But the graph, instead, shows something of a "transition" curve - the red one as shown in the illustration. The drain in this period isn't as fast as the wifi rate (blue), but it is faster than than normal deep sleep drain (green). Only after some time will it return to the green rate.
So...what is causing that red curve?

Yes I did, but I thought having a wakelock would take away from deep sleep time? I usually wipe my CPUSpy stats and leave the phone to sleep for an hour, it would almost always come up as 99% deep sleep. But anyway, I did check again, and RILJ was at the top of partial wakelocks, at 16 mins after 16h. It isn't seem to be adding time though.
Why two threads within half an hour ? They're essentially about the same thing. You could easily have edited your OP and/or title in the thread you created ~26 mins before this one :-/

Dunno why CPUspy is reporting wrong, but the rilj wakelock was for long, hence the battery drained more. If you're looking for a solution, what I've read to solve that wakelock is to turn airplane mode, switch off mobile, switch it on and then turn airplane mode off....

Are others having this? i mean i go through a full battery about twice a day.... I cant figure out what is draining it so bad. i have used WLD, greenify, and bootmanager to try to figure it out..... None of my apps are ever on the battery list, and screen is around 50% usually with android system and android OS always being up the list. I always thought it was my bad signal strength at work but i had two weeks off and my phone NEVER lasted even close to a day.
I have factory reset once but loaded my same apps backup.
I heard someone else mention that the sprint has this weird battery drain that is explainable and was wondering if others see that also.
I am on the search for a 6000+ mah battery i know it will have a replacement back plate but i don't want the whole case thing like the 9000 zero lemon.
Sounds like kernel wakelock
As of the last two days i have also been experiencing much faster battery drain. Have had the phone since launch and never had this problem.
I do not use the device in excess. Very few if any phone calls per day, some texting and gmail, occasional skim of xda, huffpo, phandroid apps and very light Twitter use if bored and not near the computer.
Battery has dipped 5% since writing this post...that's all of 1-2 minutes in use.
Sent from my LGLS990 using XDA Free mobile app
That's not normal for a Sprint LG G3. A couple of questions:
Have you looked at the battery stats page to see what app(s) are using the most battery? I'd suggest taking a screen shot of that page and posting it here.
Have you tried rebooting the phone? If there's an app or process running out of control that will often clear it up.
Are you rooted? If so, install better battery stats so we can get a better look at what's eating the battery.
Finally, you might want to take a look at this thread: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sa...android-system-eating-your-battery-check.html
While it's unlikely you have the same problem I did, the tools and techniques I used to debug it might be useful for you.
Gonna wait for some custom roms to see if the problem just goes away.

Dude the battery app should show you what is causing it. Something has gone rouge!!! I just had my weather app running in the background using GPS for 5 hours, yeah my battery went way down. Freeze some BS apps. I routinely get 30 hrs plus on a single charge. Not the phone itself something you are using is causingi it.
As requested, my craptastic battery info. Brightness was 83.
