[Q] the new LINE app cause dramatic battery drain - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sorry for my bad English.
I have a wakelock named talkOperationWakeLock (jp.naver.line.android.LINE) in huge amount of time (I unplugged the phone 11h 6m and the wakelock is 4h 34m)
This wakelock have occured since I updated the app to newer version (I think after the version that have timeline).
It is weird because the wakelock was still being occurred although I was turned off the data and it drains battery dramatically??!
Anyone have the same situation with me? or have a solution?
Thx.

Same here. Bad reviews for the latest update they put out. Revert to the previous version if you have a backup or turn off voice calls in the options.

+1.
I did turn off voice calls option but looks like this wakelock still here after update to v.3.0.3
Then I install 3.0.1 download from Internet and no wakelock found so far.
LINE 3.0.1

I am having major drain problems with that too. Thanks, will revert back to the previous version.

I uninstalled LINE becuase the latest version, 3.3.x still has a lot of battery drain..

Suffering battery drain here on my Nexus 4 [PA 3.1 (11th March)] with LINE 3.6.3 and "Receive Voice Calls" deactivated.
I suspect the drain starts when someone adds me as a friend. Just my intuition. I have never actually used it yet for messaging or anything else. Just registered and that's it.

this is such a bad app for battery. considering how much better whatsapp is in terms of battery management, not sure why Asia had to switch to Line

I used to think like that too. I'm in Thailand where is the 2nd ranking of people using LINE in the world (1st is Japan).
Most people in Thailand like it because the UI is so cool and the major thing is the stickers which are pretty.
I think it was not so good in push notifications compared to WhatsApp. But now I think it just got improved so much.
However, the bad thing of LINE is the bad battery life!

My cousin and I both using Nexus 4 and he complained that his phone battery was drained by LINE, a month later my turn to realise that LINE actually causes occasional wakelocks even with the latest version.

LINE used to allow us to ask for support via their support ticket system/contact form on their site. But now they left us no way to contact them AT ALL. So how are we gonna report about the wakelocks? I supposed they don't even care about us now since they made and still making lots of money by selling stickers.

I have Line Installed on my new NTC ONE and it seems like Line uses 22% of my battery drain. Really is draining battery. Can't stop application either unless one uninstalls it.

[ADDON] CM7 Dewonkificator [v1.4 03/17/11]

OK, I have written an app to attempt and stop call wonkyness on CM7 builds. Specifically the phone locking up when making and receiving calls.
It's my observation that it's the mic that causes the phone to lock up and so this app opens and closes the mic every minute to keep it "fresh". It's a long shot, but I can't seem to duplicate wonkyness with it enabled so I'm posting it for other to try.
Now after a few positive comments to help boost my confidence in the app, I've made it's own thread to make it easy to track comments.
Just install and run (or just reboot as it auto-start on boot). To disable, uninstall it.
Please post your results!
Change Log:
Version 1.4
Made service more persistent by adding notification bar. Turns out, Android was killing off the service when memory was running low causing wonk to surface.
Version 1.3
Can only be installed on internal memory. Needed to make sure the service can started up on boot. (Thanks to mjukis for pointing this out)
Version 1.2
Only dewonkificates when screen is off to avoid conflicts with any apps you may be using.
Removed debug logging
[Post edited because the wonkyness is still there and this .apk works fine to fix it]
Dude.... As best as I can tell in 20 minutes' time, this damn thing seems to actually work! Gotta tell ya how skeptical I was....but I'm pretty flippin' pleased right now!
Good looking out!!
Much appreciated for this app.
While it's still too early to say it's 100% working, so far so good.
I have had the wonk since build 3 to 23 (except for 16).
I will keep testing and report back often.
That's great news and I'm happy that it looks like it's working for people. I was on the edge of rolling back and this was a desperate attempt to fix it.
Agree with the op. Can't say for sure its the miracle I've been waiting for... but 4 calls in (admittedly 2 from myself, ) no wonks. When I'd expect all to be wonky
If this 'wonklessisity' continues you will surely become supreme ruler of xda!
Will report back soon.

What are your thoughts and battery impact?....and would some timeframe greater or less than 1 min. factor in??
Does this fix it?

Currently I can't see any measurable battery drain. Dewonkificator doesn't even show on the About phone->Battery use screen. Increasing the time between dewonkification might be work, but since battery doesn't seem to be a issue and we don't know what the source of the problem is I don't think its worth risking or investigating.
I also believe it have something to do with the mic, since all apps that use it have the same freeze, and it seems to work for me. Thanks

Maybe watchdog would be a better app for checking. Would give us a better idea of CPU use. Also juice plotter may help see prior and after install battery consumption
I've tested it,and havent got any wongkiness for today. I think its working...

You deserve an E-Cookie for coming up with such an awesome name
Wonky just visited me when my wife called. Installed your dewonky app for testing.
Thanks.
This bug is the reason I got off CM7 nightlies, so damn annoying. Maybe this is a Gingerbread thing rather than a Nexus S problem cause the Nexus S is supposed to be rebooting itself while in calls as I'm sure everyone knows.

Houston we have a problem ICS reboot fix killed my battery overnight while sleeping

Yes my Prime went from 40% battery life to totally dead when I woke up this morning....... I knew when they finally found a fix for the lockup issue they would screw everyone else over somehow this is last straw I am returning this once and for all.
EDIT: This appears to have been a one time thing I have tested the battery with sleep since this happened this morning and everything appears to be just fine..... also my antutu benchmark scores even went up a little
EDIT: Well nevermind my battery life sucks drains 40% in 2 hours at 25% brightness just browsing the web my Wi-Fi also randomly now disconnects and I have to click in to network settings and all of a sudden it will reconnect. I want 1.11 back or my money back for the Prime.

o which source are you referring to. A thread here on the forum?
um you shouldn't b jumping to conclusions, in my experience it is not unusual to have crap battery life after a firmware upgrade, aspecially if you have a lot of apps, it has to rebuild caches and all that, so usualy sorts it self out after a couple of days.
The other thing is we can't see what apps could be causing battery drain as Asus hasn't enabled it yet.

Jumping to conclusions? I have never woke up in the morning to turn my Prime on and find it was turned off because the battery had died I think that's as conclusive as can be.

Better Battery Stats will show you exactly what apps or processes is draining your battery. Or what's causing wakelocks(when device wakeups for reason out of sleep to update info or app process) and deep sleep issues. Its free n made by an xda member. Just type it in the search.

That's not necessarily true, sometimes a broken app, incompatible app, or apps that crashed can keep the processor running. When I first got my galaxy sII the battery drains like crazy. But after a factory reset it was 100 times better. I wouldn't jump straight to conclusion with a one time thing. After all, pics, quad core are still new.

BUT if only 1 thing changed, the OTA update, you can rule that logic out. If he got the OTA update AND changed a bunch of stuff that is possible. As I read it, only change is OTA update and thus, you can start to narrow down the cause.

The system update is not draining the battery life at all, if anything the way the system ha been adjusted to utilize the cores, it should save some battery life. battery drain is caused by an app running in the background, tat is probably not closing properly. Check to see if anything is running in the background, or maybe an app that you recently installed is not working properly. My battery can go a day without needed to be recharged, and this is with heavy gaming/app usage, as well as other prime owners whom have updated. Please try to root out another cause of the problem before just assuming its due to the update.

Yes it did, and mine and hundreds of other owners have not had any battery issue, so I don't see it causing battery issues for some and not others. Have you recently installed any new apps/games? Did you try a fresh reboot? I'm not calling you a liar, I'm just saying check for other possible causes. The speed of the cores have been adjusted somewhat with the new update to help save battery life. Use the link provided a few posts above to see whats running and using the most battery on your device..I bet that's what is killing yuor battery
Well if this is true mine should be off when I get home since i haven't used it since last night. We'll see.
Oddly enough, I had a battery issue yesterday as well - but I have not received OTA .13, my Prime is on 11.1
I left my tablet in my work bag most of the day, in sleep mode. Around 4 PM I go to use it, and it is AMAZINGLY warm/hot, and the battery is dead. I cannot remember what I was using the night before, but something made the processor churn all day, and eventually kill the battery.
I think I did leave it on Performance mode - but can't for the life of me think what could have caused this to happen.
I know - not very helpful as I am not on .13 - but just pointing out yours could have been a fluke.
Charged when I got home last night - and all seems fine today.......

Exactly, this just means that your Prime was *working* constantly, which means that there was an app/game that was running constantly without your knowledge. try a fresh reboot and see if that helps, also, try to find the culprit which is causing your prime to stay active.

You wouldn't be the first one to complain about the sleep mode battery drain on 11.1. I am also quite sure that the .13 version is heavily based on that 11.1 beta.

[Q] Bad battery perfomance

Hi everyone!
Some days ago I bought a new battery for my S3 (seller said to be genuine) and I am disappointed because its performance is almost the same as the one I was experiencing with my old battery (18 month-old battery). For this reason, I have been researching and I have done this until now:
*) Being honest, this comparison is somehow subjective since apart from the battery change, my S3 was officially updated from 4.1 to 4.3 almost at the same time I changed the battery. Then, I wonder whether this update may have affected my diagnosis on the battery duration.
1) According to the point * I decided to do a battery calibration "without root" consisting in draining the battery to 0% and charging until 100%. I haven't seen any improvement doing this.
2) As consequence I analyzed wakelocks. I have addressed two of them from the System:
- AudioOutLock. to fix this one I did as recommended: disabling sounds when typing and all of this.
- Backup. Fixed by disabling the backup from Google (I would like to have it enabled but if it is causing a battery drain...)
3) I let the phone the whole night turned on with the 3g connection on and I got a ratio of 2%/hour draining. I have read this is more or less under the normal parameters.
After doing all of this I'm still not happy with the performance. Usually, my mobile gets under 20% by the end of the day with the screen on in a range between 1h30m and 2h. If I remember well at the very begging (when I bought my phone), I was getting my phone at 20% by the end of the day but having the screen on for 4h or more. After buying a new battery, I was expecting to return to that situation.
Do you have any hint? As for example a better way to calibrate? Factory reset may help? Should I check a specific wakelock?
Thank you very much in advance!
I forgot to mention that when I let it charging over night, my s3 does not always charge until 100. Sometimes it's until 98 or 95. I don't know if this helps you guys as a hint but I want to provide as much information as possible.
Thanks

Thanks!, I will check. But so far I have briefly seen it looks like there is not a specific solution more than disabling gNow and some other things. Maybe a good option is to downgrade or using a custom rom in which there aren't these problem.
its same to me.

Thanks!. I have been using Wakelock detector but I will try with this one. I was wondering if using this kind of applications for checking the wakelocks may provoke some battery drain itself. I mean, should it be used just for analyzing when you experience a battery issue? or should they be permanently installed no matter whether you have battery problems or not?

Hi, Better Battery Stats is using an already existing process of Android to obtain it's information, therefore the influence of the app itself on battery drain should be negligable.

Thanks for the info!. I have not seen anything special in the partial wakelocks. In the kernel wakelocks, it is difficult to distinguish whether one entry is specially problematic or not. After what I have read so far it may be the mix of social apps I have now installed:
- Whatsapp
- Twitter
- Messenger (FB messenger)
- Line
I guess maybe I have too many of them reason why the battery is draining more than normally when the screen is off

mk6 is fine with the battery...so firstly install an app called better battery stats search for it...install it and let the phone to be in standby mode for 4-5 hours..and then see in partial wakelocks and kernel wakelocks..and post those screenshots on bbs thread...someone will surely help you..
sometimes changing kernel could solve the problem..boeffla is the one i am satisfied with..and agni kernel is also one of the better kernels..:good:

Sorry for the delay to answer, I've been busy. Here I post the images of the battery stats. Sorry, they are not what you told me to be having them 5 hours quiet (that's difficult for me). However I can tell you that the 40minutes of screen on where just chatting on whatsapp or checking emails; no angry birds or need for speeds hehe... Are these images ok to be posted on the thread you told me? Thanks in advance!
I had a poor battery perfomance after upgrading from 4.1.2 to 4.3 until I've disabled fast dormancy. It seems that in v4.3 is enabled, and if your carrier doesn't support it, it will eat your battery. Donwload free from market "fast dormancy togle" by Siyah, and that's it

I have just rooted the phone and disable the fd. I hope this works!. Thank you very much for the info. However, now that I have it rooted, do you suggest to install a custom rom for getting a better performance? if so, which? there is a good one with 4.4 and multi-view?.
Thanks in advance!
Try flashing allblacksback mod it makes the whole system dark and saves battery on display and also I recommend disabling Google play services but this means there will be no push services but it saves a lot of ? ? ? ?

After giving a try to the idea of disconnecting the fast dormancy here I give you some reports on the battery consumption. I don't know why but statistics are wrong from the point of view of the duration (3 days).. since I disconnected it just 10 hours ago. I think its consumption is still huge. I hope you can give me a hint on it. Thanks!
Ive installed smartdroid. Battery perfomance seems quite better now! What do you think from the screens? However.. i find the screen too much consuming.... ive seen people managing 5 hours of screen in a day. Why i am not? May it be battery or configuration?
Thanks!
Do you have any hint on this? Ive seen that with the screen off the consumption is really good. However, with the screen on a doing normal stuff: chroming, feedlying or whatsapping it goes to a 20-25%/h.

Redmi note 9s battery app suddenly updated and it's messing usage status

Hey guys
Since I bought the device the battery usage was accurate and was working fine, until suddenly like a week ago the app seems to have updated because it looks different now when you go into battery settings and also usage status is weird and messed up. I think that it's getting reset every 24 hours instead of every time I charge because when I check SOT it's always very low compared to my usage
anyone facing the same issue? anyway I can change it back to how it was before?
You are correct, only last 24h are shown, so stats are pretty useless... I already reported this bug.
The sad thing is that they say they don't have time to fix bugs as they are working on MIUI12, but they add more bugs to the working things...

People who got MIUI 12 are already complaining of bad battery life. We don't want the MIUI 12 update, we just want our battery app back as usual. if it aint broken dont fix it.
I just regret buying xiaomi man.
I agree.
You said that people with MIUI12 have issues about battery life, to think evil with this bug it's harder to get correct and comparable data about battery life...
I have created a feature request thread on Xiaomi's community forum this issue (it should be a bug instead...), please vote here https://c.mi.com/thread-3285998-1-0.html

Crazy Xiaomi, how to ruin an App in one quick change, I don't think it is likely they will revert back to the battery app that was actually quite good anytime soon, so as requested by 7mada has anybody found a way to revert back to the previous App?
Go into apps , locate security, uninstall updates at bottom and battery goes back to old version

Is the battery app related to security app? Does reverting the updates affect anything else?

When I did the security update it also changed the battery app so I guess yes, on uninstalling the security update the battery app reverted back, security still seems to work as per normal

Question Lag & Bugs after Feb update

Am i only the one who is noticing minor lags around the UI after the feb update including few scrolling and wallpaper bugs on 23 Ultra?
Had no problem on my U1.
I'm noticing battery life isn't as good. Anyone else feel this?

You can't judge battery for a few days. It always sucks immediately after an update.
Should i roll back or wait for another update?

I just got my s23 ultra on Monday. Turn on phone and updated. I must say battery life isn't that great either. Once I start using my phone it goes down quickly
I haven't notice any lags after the update. Battery life seems the same as before. I just installed the update today so will see if there is any significant change. But so far seems that it's just working as intended. Still hitting 5+ hours of SOT after last a full day of use and 30% battery left no optimizations.
Seems fine here. Am on light battery profile
No difference here on VZW.
No problems on the U1 model.
No issues for me. If you have a few hiccups wait a day or 2. Apps do re-optimize after an update so let everything adjust.

Have had this after “analyzing battery pattern” phase. It was probably the play store update but as soon battery finished analysis p, it got worse
I don't get why some of you are only getting half the battery life that I am. I am Deaf so I don't do any voice calling. Don't have any games installed yet. And only Social Media I have is Facebook and Messenger. Other than that it's all Stock without any modifications and using Adaptive Refresh, Adaptive Battery and WQHD resolution.
The first screenshot was with Standard Performance Profile and Second was Light Performance Profile.

I'm telling you, was so average. Installed older release software, back to ridiculous battery life.

Look at the reports online. This Feb update has some s23 owners noticing battery degradation. Mostly previous gen phones updated to 5.1 though it seems, like s22 s21 owners

Hi, lot's of problems here
apps force closing
system notifications saying apps have issues
system restarting and going on a loop (not getting to the pin screen)
Had to go back to my prevoius phone until I figure it out
Chatted with Samsung, no straight answers.
Factory resetted it, still same issues, even on the instalation screen to pick language.
Anyone know how to rollback in a clean way to avoid warranty issues?
SM-S918B-ARO
Regarding batery, wasn t able to check, but I assume it will have issues too.
Thx

Why do you update your phone if you get bugs afterwards?

Because I don't have a time machine to know what would happen. I assumed this didn't happen, but I was wrong, now is time to fix it..
Downloading update via Frija and will update on Odin.
The thing is I can't rollback, as I couldn't get the old firmware, only the new one.
I'll update here when is done.

Remember it for the rest of your life!!! All updates bring only bugs! No need to update Windows and Android! If you do, you will have problems. You won't get anything good.
