Hi, I wanted to ask something.
My facebook app after upgrading in 2.3, it consumes a lot of battery, such as 50-60%. Obviously it is not a normal thing.
Does anyone know the reason?
I'm desperate!!:crying::crying::crying::crying:
Thank you very much!

Maybe check what the app tries to sync and what to refresh (e.g. notifications etc.) and how often it does that.
if you are rooted you can get a better view on the battery consumption with BetterBatteryStats (search here on XDA).

you can also try to use Gemini to switch on/off services used by facebook (or other apps likewise).
or you could try a reflash of the rom?

Okay, the Facebook app on my O1 is really killing my battery; it drains by 10% in half an hour when on standby. Spare Parts says that the phone is running for almost 100% of the time, and partial wake usage blames Facebook. The drain stops when I force close the app. I tried turning off refreshing etc but no luck. Please help me out with this. I'm using void ROM but I had the same problem with the stock ROM.

ReMove facebook frm ur op1 using root uninstaller,absolute system root tools,titanium backup,termina remulator using codes..
I use facebook on my 01, but I dont experience that much of a battery drain. Try removing it and install another app which can access fb, there must be some on the android market.
I would do remove it, but I want to use the app rather than the touch site, so unless you're sure there's no fix...

The Void ROM is pretty outdated, its no longer supported. Maybe you could try switching to Devoid and see if you still experience the same thing?
Jst stop the data connection from the power menu wen u not using fb..

I'll do that.. I was going to flash Cyanogenmod anyway, I'll do it as soon as I get my pc back.

ok mate ive experienced that before some roms i forgot
but here are some advice for u:
1) uninstall facebook and
go mobile web
try friendcaster on market
2) if you dont wanna uninstall that try download something like an auto task killer and put facebook (only!) into the auto kill list but remember dont over using that **** auto task killers fail and waste battery but effective on high-ram using apps
hope these help
Hey guys, just wondering if it is okay to exit all apps and clear RAM in the task manager every night. I do this right before I go to bed. Makes me feel like I'm "Exiting all Windows/Programs" on a PC, so it doesn't drain the battery while I sleep. Can this cause problems with any programs?
Thanks.
No problem .

Hey Alazarin,
Here is a good guide about it

...can't post a link :/
regards
Exiting all apps is fine and a must imo, but 'Clear RAM' is NOT. It will stop certain apps and processes, widgets etc. Only do that if you manually want to do it and know what you are doing.

Correct. I was just not sure if doing this on a habitual and daily basis was a good idea. My concern was that if by clearing RAM, it would affect programs/widgets stability... but then again, I would not want to use any data from that point on. What happens then? Would I just have to re-open the programs/widgets to "activate" them back into memory?

On a slightly related note i clear cache every day as well,some people don't seem to do it as often but it is recommended.

Well he could do that if he wants, but if he runs any scheduler/alarm app it won't work anymore. I also did it and then my Power Schedule app stopped working. So that option is safe if someone is sure that absolutely nothing is needed from the device.
PS- Still if you like to do it then keep your scheduler app under SuperUser list or mark it as 'Do Not Kill' in a File Manager app like Gemini, only this will keep your app to not get closed by Clearing RAM.
Regards.

Only trial and error will answer the question. I have LBE Privacy running on mine, and clearing the RAM does not shut that app down, or the stock alarm app.
It depends on the app/widget as to what happens.

This is true. I clear my RAM once a day, mainly just before bed, and it doesn't shut down the most important App which I depend on running all the time - Sound Manager, which manages my notifications sounds and volume during the night and day. I personally think it is safe, since for me it shuts down everything that is non-essential.
Please use the Q&A Forum for questions Thanks

I have no idea what's going on, and its extremely aggravating. I never use Facebook other than for when notifications show up, each of then pictures are taken of stats on a brand new s3 with a brand new AOKP ROM, and I have not even opened Facebook after a full battery charge and a reboot, and it still demolishes my battery.
I need help here, its driving me up the wall

seems to me like it's a wakelock bug which means that the application is preventing your phone from going into idle mode.uncheck all synch options and come back to report

Try it the old fashioned way
Delete Facebook and reinstall it. I had the same problem with Google Maps once and it worked that way.
Reinstalled and same behavior.
I even force stopped the app out of curiosity, and its still draining, even tho its still stopped

If he uses Greenifiy he won't receive any notifications from Facebook because the App will be hibernated.
That's right, Facebook will only sync when you open it, this is what fast Facebook does (which is very popular as it's a lightweight ver different version). Facebook is a big hogger but if you want instant updates, guess you'll have to put up with it. You could try clearing data, running sdmaid on a regular basis and clearing Facebook files, that might help.

Google+ is killing my battery with this partial wakelock. Short of freezing it with Titanium (which does solve the problem for me), does anyone know how to prevent this from running? It literally runs as long as my phone is on, and is just draining my battery.
On HTC Sensation, S-Off, rooted, using stock ROM (4.0.3)
Tried uninstalling the app if you don't need it? If it doesn't allow you from the Settings, get some File Manager that has root rights and manually delete the application from system/app.

I'm not sure about the phone app, but you should try disabling some Google services with disable service or use Greenify donation edition to hibernate play services.

there is no problem with google play services, the phone app stays awake all time, even i dont use it,, the device dont get to deep sleep because of that ?
Any help ?
The mobile data and screen brightness are the biggest drainer of battery life by a mile.
I would only turn the brightness up on my phone when i use it then turn it down later.
You can restrict background data, this one is the holy grail in battery conservation. Unless you specify otherwise a lot of the apps that you have on your phone like Facebook Twitter and many many more will constantly try to connect to their servers to look if there is anything new to report. To do this hit you settings, Connections, Data usage, menu, then put a tick in Restrict background data to force your phone to stop syncing continuously.
:good:

Using that app and finding the cause is a much better option than just returning to stock because it works.

I suggest you to install one or both of below free apps to monitor what is draining the battery:
- Battery Doctor(Battery Saver)
- GSam Battery Monitor
With the first one you can also set the option 'CPU Management=YES' so the phone can deep sleep
One the app is identify you can hibernate it to avoid running in background with the app 'Greenify'
Thanks.

Strange, maybe and issue with that specific S3 model.
I have tested CM, Slimkat, C-ROM, Carbon, Omegarom on S3 GT-I9300 and I haven´t had that issue,
battery life is better than the stock rom.
Maybe you can try to run a cleaning kernel script before flashing if not done yet.
Use the betterbatterystats app i mentioned before to find out whats causing the phone app to stay awake.
Its all good to say the phone app is keeping it awake but you need to find the trigger or service that is doing so. The screen shots you are providing are basic and do not provide this, you need a log from this app.
