Hi guys, I'm looking for an app (if it does exist) that can tell what application is using my location. When u look at my alarms on bbs.. I always have the maps alarm waking my phone numerous times. I have all the tracking settings disabled in Maps settings and my phone settings. I I can't figure out what calls the Maps app.

Have you got Missed It installed or another app that requires accessibility settings turned on?

Yup its a bug.
Disable google text-to-speech and samsung tts in application manager. Thats the only way to fix it for now.

Hey, everybody!
I have a little issue with my i9300: when I go to the Settings menu, Application manager, the list of Downloaded application takes 30 seconds or more to show the used space for every application. If I select an application while such info is not present, the Details show "Computing..." and it usually takes the phone about a minute to show the details.
Does anybody have this issue? I know it does not really affect the phone, as I can uninstall applications, clear cache, etc; but it's a bit annoying to find this settings section to be slow. And I do not know whether a specific application is slowing it down or what.
I would really appreciate any help, tips, or hints to solve this annoyance.
Thanks!
Mine's the same and has been on every ROM that I've tried.
I guess it has to access the app to ascertain what data is being stored.

Yeah, kinda weird. Now that I remember, I had the same issue on my S2, but my wife does not (S2 as well).
Yeah I've just checked on my wife's S2 and it calculates it quicker but she's got a fraction of the amount of apps as me

Hi everyone,
I've had an issue for a while now that i just realized was a problem. After seeing my girlfriends phone getting instant notifications for snapchat, Facebook, foursquare, and others, while i have to go into those apps to see if anything new has happened, i realize my phone is not working correctly.
I have the elegancia rom, on att, and as far as i can tell every setting in my phone is set to allow them.
Does anyone know why this would be happening? Or suggestions on how to fix or troubleshoot it?
This is very frustrating.

It is because your phone is in deep sleep to save battery when your screen is off. There is an app called "Push Notification Fixer" that solves the problem. I have used it for months, and it's great, it doesn't seem to affect battery life significantly
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...wsMSwxLDMsImNvbS5hbmRxbGltYXgucHVzaGZpeGVyIl0.
Would it be in deep sleep even if I'm using the phone? I mean, let's say I'm actively using my phone for an hour. And my friend snapchats me or posts on facebook during that time. i still won't get it unless i open the app.
I tried using push notification fixer for like a day and didn't notice a difference. Does it take time to take effect?
Would juice defender cause any issues with this? I use it daily on the lowest setting.
Also, does auto sync need to be enabled?

Alright, as of now, i have auto sync on. I disabled Juice Derfender, i checked and made sure background data is enabled on apps, checked to make sure notifications are enabled on apps, and also made sure restrict mobile data was unchecked. And i have Push Notifications Fixer installed and running.
Still no luck.
After talking with an htc tech guy. He pointed out that the notification settings are in the privacy menu.
On the elegancia rom there is no privacy menu option in the settings. Maybe this is why?

ist under Security menu
What setting is it? What should i be looking for? The only settings i have under security in regard to notifications are for the lock screen.

I also have this problem with facebook, no notifications at all Tried several methods, also from this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2174391
Currently i have Paranoid Rom on my S3
Edit: Okay, now they are working...
What I have observed is that juice defender / dx battery booster etc do not disable all the settings properly when disabled. So it might be (a possibility) - that it has screwed up your settings.
I am also on Elegancia ROM. ofcourse I have autosync on as well as PNF installed. For me it takes hardly a gap of 2 seconds when I get a notification on my mobile & desktop....
May be you can try to uninstall juicedefender (Check if there is any setting to reset the changes or not before uninstalling).
And one advise - I am not sure about you, but I found all these battery saving apps useless
Hmmmm. Ok. Well, i just switched to the Venom rom and i am experiencing the same issue. I went ahead and uninstalled juice defender completely.
Is there a by lasting settings that could be messed up from it even after uninstalling it?
I'm really on my last nerve. My phone feels crippled and u can't figure out why...

Does anyone have any suggestions? I don't even know how to troubleshoot this issue any further... I'm really bummed out because i love this phone. I just wish it worked the way it is supposed to.

I fixed it! I still don't know exactly what the culprit was but i know it was some system setting that had gotten messed up. It kept following me from rom to rom because i used titanium backup to backup and restore system settings.
I ended up doing a fresh install of viper and installed snapchat first thing. I instantly got a push notification. I proceeded to install all the backups of my other apps and manually at all my phone settings again.
Thanks for all the help everyone!

To be specific the NlpCollectorWakeLock and AudioOut_2 services are the main offenders.
I'm running a nightly XDA release, but I was previously running a stable 4.2 release and the same problem existed.
And if your asking I don't have viber downloaded.

As much I have known this is Google Services problem. As posted here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=44278740&postcount=17605
After the last Google Service update, one of the bigger updates was the way Google applications integrated their applications with location tracking. The NLP wakelock is the google location process (NOT the location access in settings on CM10.1, but rather location access in Google apps itself.)

for AudioOut_2 service, no one has the perfect answer.. this is caused due to wakelock. applications which uses sound and runs in background like viber, skype, music player, etc. causes wakelock. this prevents device to go to deep sleep. if the device goes to deep sleep than there is minimum battery usage but if it doesn't than it drains battery for no reason. you might be getting high battery usage by AudioOut_2 service, this is because some apps which uses sound and runs in background make use of that service in background, prevents device to go to deep sleep and drains the battery. Wakelock appears regardless of whether you turn off your screen. Play 15 minutes of audio with the screen on, you get this wakelock. Play a game, kill the process, you get this wakelock. It occurs even if you're using the phone, not only during screen off..
Ive found that disabling Google Search really reduces the battery drain for me - look at this thread
