Hi.
How can we stop GpsLocationProvider?
I've stopped the app that was using GPS but GpsLocationProvider it's always on preventing my phone to enter deep sleep and thus being responsible for the battery drain.
Is the only solution to restart the phone?

Hi.
No. Just killing this "service" after using GPS so it stops eating battery. And when I turn my GPS app it will work as expected.
Now I restart my phone and it stops draining my battery...

It happens exactly the same to me!!! I'v tried several kernels but its same. Once you use gps, even if you disable it, gpslocationprovider gives partialwakelocks and ends up draining your battery. So far rebooting its the only solution(???), does any one know more about this bug??? I tried to make some research and it seem to happen in other CM celphones
by the way, im using miks 6.5.8
Same here with perfectpeso 1.4
I'm having same problem too.
I'm notice even not the GPS on; or sometimes I'm on my 3G.
not sure when it's come on this awake status when checking through:
betterbattstat:
GpsLocationProvider
and it's eat up a lot of battery.
Device: LG-P500
ROM: Cyanogen 6.5.8

Do you use GoogleMaps?
Or is it just after enabling/disabling gps?

Not Google maps directly but one app that probably uses them (CardioTrainer).
But I believe that when using Ndrive problem still occurs and this app does not use Google maps.
Forgot to say I'm using Andys ROM.
As was already said, after rebooting problem disappears

Hi vic1978vic,
your ROM is

do it really better than cyanogen 6.5.8 ?

I had this in the past, from now on, I never turn the GPS off and it's solved.
You could think that it's would drain battery, but it doesn't.

I didn't try 6.5.8. This is my first custom ROM. All I can say is that is better than stock froyo 2.2.2
Mine was stock froyo 2.2.1
my first custom ROM is Mik 6.5.5 then 6.5.8
you are true; better than stock.
I'm asking because thinking whether want to change to NBB first and update Custom ROM; since nowadays more and more Custom ROM are in new baseband rather than old baseband
Also happens on Samsung Phones with CM10.
I get this, and I never use GPS. Any fix? Thank you.

The "Android System" usage can be reduced by using Titanium Backup and Freezing stock Samsung apps that you don't use / need (ie. Social Hub, una service for Samsung apps, etc).
The Android OS usage issue I don't think there's much we can do about until either Samsung release a 2.3.4 android rom or someone manages to get AOSP CM7 ROM released because apparently it's a known Android bug for dual core phones....
many thx

your usage actually looks pretty normal to me. 13 hours unplugged with 4 hours screen-on time, 22% battery left. not bad at all. i didnt notice what the android OS CPU time was though to make any assessment of that.

That the tweaks are included means you don't need to do anything to enable them.
No kernel requires any sd card partitioning.
Yes, you can flash it via CWM. Just wipe cache and battery stats first.

so that means that the tweaks are already enabled when the phone boots up??? thanks man for your response!
As the title says, my p500 is awake almost 100% of the time. Even with the screen off (please look at the attached image).
The only apps running at startup (used Startup Manager app to check it) are Go weather, Maps, Market, Minimalistic text and Quick System Info Pro. On my home screen (Go Launcher EX) I use Go Weather, minimalistic text and Winamp widget, nothing else.
Is there somewhere I can look at or maybe some app I can install to see what is causing it?
I'm using Mik's CM7 6.5.5 and franco.kernel v16.1 bfs (this one gives me almost 30% more battery life than the newer versions) and running at 729/245mhz Smartass.

PROBLEM SOLVED
I was planing on sending the phone to repair on monday, but at the time and with the phone here i didn't want to give up so i thought of rooting it and reinstalling the firmware, but nothing worked and the phone didn't recognize that it was connected to a computer. So i kept search other ways to reinstall the firmware and came across a website that talked about a "secret menu" code for the phones and i remembered that this phones must had one and that from there i could do something, i did. From there i did a factory reset and, unlike the ones i did before by going to settings-privacy, when the phone rebooted it told me right way that it was connected to the computer. I also tested the problem with the screen light and so far, so good.
So, if anyone else has this problem(sannielyk reportedly had) what i did was entering the "secret menu" code : 3845#*500# and did the factory reset from there.
Apparently it was a software problem or something that wasn't installed right by the lg service. But so far everything is good, and i hope it keeps that away.
Thanks for the help

I think I've found the villain. I started manual proccess of uninstalling apps and letting the phone sleep for an hour or so to check awake times. After I removed Live Holdem Pro the phone finnaly slept through an entire hour.
Still have to test through a complete battery cicle tho.

Yes, I have tried it. It helps when you do not use 3G/HSDPA. As soon as u enable internet and browse the net and after that disable the internet, the Fast Dormancy process starts to drain the battery again and again. Disabling the Fast Dormancy does not always work.
I swhitched to 2G and then it stopped draining the battery, but it is not the solution, as I can't live without 3G/HSDPA... Don't know what to do

Install better battery stats and see what is keeping your phone awake.
Use the gbs or goldenleaf kernel by fserve if you wanna stop crying over battery life..

First of all, I would like to congrats you that you have successfully installed the best kernel in the world - franco.Kernel v2
then, let me tell you: the battery consumption is NOT because of the kernel.
according to your findings, you said alarm manager is activating the partial wakelock.
confirm the wakelock is occupying that 8 hours of awake
if not, see if there is another wakelock
do not uninstall alarm apps, they are NOT THE ONLY apps that activates alarm manager!
according to the xda wiki, it says...
Alarm Manager
http://developer.android.com/reference/android/app/AlarmManager.html
Alarm Manager manages intents to Be triggered at Specific Times. Alarm Manager has little to do with alarm clocks. It is related to Android holding a process in state until it is either needed again or exited fully.
Quote:
This class provides access to the system alarm services. These allow you to schedule your application to be run at some point in the future. When an alarm goes off, the Intent that had been registered for it is broadcast by the system, automatically starting the target application if it is not already running. Registered alarms are retained while the device is asleep (and can optionally wake the device up if they go off during that time), but will be cleared if it is turned off and rebooted. ... The Alarm Manager holds a CPU wake lock as long as the alarm receiver's onReceive() method is executing.
Make sure you exit apps you no longer want by using the back button before you put your device to sleep. Do not use the Home button to exit an app.

get it? i use my phone that way, try exiting apps with the back button after a reboot, and try one more night! good luck
