Anyone else getting sleep death after 2.1 alpha, if not what r your settings?

Use SetCPU to set your speeds to 486mz while screen is off. Mine hasn't slept on me for 2 days.

Also keep it in airplane mode but with wireless on to avoid battery drain from cell standby.
I get the "SOD" almost whenever it locks, either manually or on it's own. I didn't have this problem before Alpha 2. I wonder if it has something to do with what's installed.
Plus I have tried the SETCPU trick and that didn't help.

But if it's not sleeping, won't the battery drain be huge? (I just got it a few seconds ago, so I can't comment on it yet...)

HP Sleep of Death Fix with APP Softlocker
I used softlocker, and its worked like a charm. Just downloaded it from the market (free version, will buy other version once tested for two days), set it at boot, and works...
After day of using soft locker I unplugged the tablet at 8:00 am and at 4:00 the battery was at 83%, But have not gotten one sod, battery usage was 53% for soft locker app.

How do you enable airplane mode without disabling wifi and/or bluetooth? I'd love to disable the processes that care about phone features, but I don't want to screw with my wifi or BT (keyboard).

Enable Airplane mode. Then turn on Wifi & BT individually.

Hello my girl got the amaze and she doesnt want to root her phone. With that said is there anything i can do to her phone to improve the battery life? Also her phone is much different then mine so i am lost as to was this call..something. It seems to run the whole time the phone is on. Is that just a system app for getting the signal for the phone? Thanks for your time.

Turn off sync in Settings > Accounts
Also it wouldn't hurt to put the screen on the dimmest setting when its asleep.
Also put it on Edge when its asleep.

Network setings 2G only
Sent from my E10i using xda premium
get juice defender or green power. they turn off data when your screen is off. I use green power and it works wonders, just make sure you set it to only manage phone data and turn off the bluetooth and wifi management.
Yep Juice Defender has helped me a lot.
Like others mentioned, set to lowest dimming, sync only what you need.
Shut off wifi when out and about and not near wifi as it will search for it and essentially drains the battery faster.

I'm not sure if that's really that unexpected.
It shows the battery going down, yes, but it also shows the phone was awake and the screen on almost that entire time.
If I played a game on mine, with the screen on the entire time, my battery would go down quickly as well.
Looks like you are streaming music, so yeah, perfectly normal

If that's all you were doing, then you've got some app keeping your phone awake and the screen on.

I still think it's because the screen was on that entire time. Check to see if you have it set to auto brightness.
As far as lte/cdma setting, I have not seen any difference in battery life when leaving lte on.
Yea I had auto brightness on was that the cause of it?

Today I got almost 2 hours of on screen time before I hit 3% after 9 hours. So I look in battery in settings and Android System is #1 at 57%! Then screen at 20%' followed by cell standby at 9%.
What is causing android system to take up 57% and cause barely 2 hour on screen time?
I had this issue too! after a reboot i havent had this issue agin
check what google services you have auto syncing. aka g+ calender and contacts those can make it really bad.
sounds like a rogue app of some sort.

An app that misbehaves: Sync's data or runs in the background when you are not using it, wakes device during sleep (wakelock) and performs background operations. This could be any app or game you download, usually it is more common in free apps with unknown developers....make sure to check reviews before downloading.
It seems like the restart fixed it. After restart android system is 4th place at only 6%.
Its doing it again today. 67% of battery is android system.
Any help?
I have better battery stats but it's some what hard to understand.

Mobile data has been killing the battery on my AT&T Galaxy S3. I can always tell because it gets warm even with the screen off. The only way I can stop the drain is to turn off mobile data which is not a long-term fix. I can't understand why some days I get amazing battery life, and some days I get a few hours only.
Use juice defender, I've used it for years, it turns off mobile data when the screen is off and re enables it on a schedule you set. It's the only long term fix I have found. Since calls and texts come through 2g this should fix your problem.

I tried it but uninstalled it rather quickly. I didn't even have it installed long enough to tell how much difference it made.
After it got out of its "learning" phase, it consistently turned off my GMail push notifications, despite telling it not to, and turned my wifi on all the time. I was getting 2 days of battery life with the phone without the app, so I figured it wasn't worth the effort for me.
re
I have been using it for 5 days and I agree, it works fairly well besides WiFi. Any savings seem to be offset by the constant turning on. Try putting a WiFi widget on your homescreen and manually controlling WiFi, and let the app do everything else.

What exactly is bad about the wifi control? Does turning off at night stop you from getting notifications (ie. email)?
I actually prefer to be on wifi since I'm on a limited shared plan.
I have been using it for over a month and have had no issues with wifi. I usually finish the day with over 60% battery left. That is 13 hours before i put it on the charger.

big difference prior to using the app?
I actually just leave wifi on.. maybe that's why I only get 3 hours of screen time versus other people who get 4 or 5..
I uninstalled it a couple minutes ago lol. Makes my Google Now notifications that tell me when to leave like an hour late. Not cool :crying:
Not to mention how annoying it is to connect to the WiFi at my local McDonalds because it's called "dlink," the default name, which makes my phone "learn" to connect to every dlink. Ugh.
Mine has been in learning mode for like 2 weeks now... I don't know what the deal is... Doesn't really seem to be doing anything at all if you ask me.

I tried every battery saving app and at the end it came up that the radio consumes most of the juice. 2000+ wakelocks for couple hr standby. Something is clearly not right. We will see how would it go with Kit Kat. Right now it feels like you have Htc One with those 4hr screen time.
Edit:
Made some test.
Charged it to 100%. Then i browsed till it gone to 70%. And guess what, i have almost 3hr of screen time..... crazy....

Actually it's the same with all these "battery saving" apps. They use significantly more juice with their background monitoring than they'll ever save, and most of what they do are either unecessary or common sense. They're like task killers.
