so this never happened to me until I flashed LPQ. I had lpq running for a couple hours. then my phone started saying charging paused voltage too high, but my phone isnt even plugged in, it also says its charging. when it wouldnt stop I decided to go back to my turkbey backup, that made the issue stop. the same thing happened when I flashed 3 different LPQ roms.
anyone have any clue why this is happening? I thought it was a charging port issue until it only happened on LPQ
No one?? 169 views and nothing?
Are you wiping everything in CWM before flashing?
many people reporting this issue but no reliable fix for now.only solution was getting back on GB

did you do a full wipe (including cache) before you flashing it ?

The only thing I can think of to fix this issue is to reflash the phone. But make sure to clear the dalvic cache, the regular cache, and do a factory reset before you flash it.
On another note that would relate to this thread, my phone is running fine with this new ICS, except for the fact that my screen lock doesn't show up everytime I press the power button to put it into sleep mode. Not even when I leave it alone for the backlight to go off by itself. I've tried changing the security settings, changing the security feature to everything available (facelock, pin, pattern, etc.) It doesn't even show up when there is no security feature at all.
Any help or info about this is very much appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I am going CRAZY!!!! so now I flashed LP7 through odin everything went fine. then after a couple minutes, the exact same issue I have no clue whats going on. I never ever had this issue before LPQ and LP7, I mean Never!!!! does anyone have any clue what i can do? i really want LPQ and LP7 on my GS2!!
anyone?? I came from turkbeys Gingerbread. I went to turkbeys ICS, i wiped everything in CWM flashed his ICS and still having this issue. i have no idea whats going on.
Hi, I'm having the same problem with my S2 since I've installed ICS....I gotta mention that I installed ICS on another S2 and everything went just fine...But this time, i just don't know what went wrong so that a notification about baterry voltage keeps beeping every 3 sec...How can I solve this problem? Should any other installation of another version of GB fix this problem? I just can't use my S2 normally...Pls help me!!!
Whenever my phone goes to sleep, and I try and turn on the screen again, it simply reboots. This occurs in airplane mode with nothing enabled as well
Unlocked, CM7. I flashed different roms and they all had this, I don't think it happened on stock.
Any fixes? All the threads I've seen have no real info
Seems like your system files might be corrupted. Wipe system partition from fastboot or cwm then reflash your rom. Any time I had weird stuff happen on a rom, I wipe the system then it goes away. Hope this helps you get rid of this issue. Good luck!

Doesn't work, just wiped system, cache and dalvik, then flashed rom and sod's still happen.
I have also tried flashing several radios, all with sod's. Any suggestions?
wakelock
I had this problem on stock and every rom I tried (this was actually the reason I unlocked) I installed wakelock app from the market. I set it on partial wakelock. I think it keeps phone from going into deep sleep. It worked for me. I think it may make battery life a bit worse but having to pull battery sucks. Since I also have the issue on stock I am prob sending it in on warranty

So you've had SODs since you got the phone? Wakelock seems to work, but kills the battery.
For anyone who does NOT have SODs what modem/radio are you using?
Yes had them since I got the phone. Wakelok fixed it for me. Battery life is not horrible. It still last me like 14 hrs moderate use. I have tried radios and everything else I could thing of. Think mine is hardware related. That is why I am sending it in. I was surprised to find out it was still under warranty
I've just noticed that when mine shuts down, it gives a green notification first, then when I try turning the screen it, it reboots.
Unfortunately, my phone is out of warranty, I bought it used
SODs still happen in airplane mode.
Try wakelock and post if that fixes it.
Call Motorola directly. I bought two used. Had the same problem. They replaced them both with new units.

Just don't say anything about buying it used.

As posted above, wake lock works but uses battery.
I live in Canada and am out of warranty, would I still be able to call?
It's worth a try. You have nothing to lose.

I had the same problems.. but mine happens when phone gets above 35°C.. So I activate wakelock at this time until i see temp is lower than that.. after that I disable wake lock.. it's a pain in the ass.. but it is better than pull the battery out once every 15 min..

Is there something specific about 35C, and are you sure it is exactly that?
I have installed 2.3.6 Bell and I still get reboots, anyone have a link to stock 2.2.1 Bell SBF that I can try?
sometime 35 sometime 36.. but above that temp.. sod kills me.. under that temp phone runs smooth..
I'm a system enginner but I haven't program in years.. I'm thinking seriously in create just a services to read temp and launch a wake lock when temp reache some level..

my phone would not actually reboot but in went into SOD (sleep of death) so every time this has happened to me i installed a new kernel or reinstalled the one i had.........always rectified the issue.
Same issue
I had the same problem when I flashed CM9 and then when I downgraded back down to CM7, I tweaked the kernels I used and changed my UV settings and it hasn't happened since. Perhaps flash a different kernel and see if that works?

Tried several of them, this seems to happen on stock 2.3.6 as well.
I flashed a stock sbf to return to stock. Still had the sleep of death. Reboots after and during phone calls, and touch screen problems. I believe it is hardware related.
I apologize if this thread is a tad redundant, but I believe it goes beyond your run-of-the-mill glitches that one might post about in the ICS Bugs thread.
I got my OTA upgrade about 10 days ago, and since then my RAZR has been utterly useless.
The biggest problem is an obvious issue with power management. With GB I used to get almost a full day of heavy use. Now I get 2 hours, 3 if I'm lucky. I often find that the phone is extremely hot, as if the processor and radios are running at 100% for no reason.
Perhaps worse than that, it takes infinitely longer to charge than it used to. As in, 5+ hours to go from 0% to 100% -- and that's while the phone is powered off. Powered on, it'll take even longer.
I've experienced issues with almost every app, and with some I've had literally no success whatsoever. Facebook freezes half of the time before even loading up. The stock Browser will freeze a few times a day. Alarm Clock Xtreme freezes whenever I try to edit an alarm. Neither the stock Gallery nor third-party image apps will load up any of my photos without freezing. Google Talk won't initiate video chats. The list goes on and on.
Moreover, the phone will often just freeze outright. Sometimes the screen won't light up, regardless of how many times I press the power button. Sometimes the phone gets stuck on the home screen, and responds to nothing. Sometimes the phone becomes unresponsive, although pressing the capacitive buttons still triggers haptic feedback. Because of this, several times a day I just hold power+down to shut it off the hard way.
At this point, I actually avoid using it. It's that useless. It's more burdensome than it is helpful. It sucks because, when it's working, everything is really smooth and the ICS interface is really cool. I can tell it would be awesome, if only it worked.
Has anyone experienced such madness as this?
FYI, I'm running:
Android version 4.0.4
System version 6.16.211.XT912.Verizon.en.US
Baseband version CDMA_N_05.11.01PLTEDC_U_09.11.00
Kernel version 3.0.8-g29cf5e7, [email protected] #1
Build number 6.7.2-180_DHD-16_M4-31
I can't believe they would release something so unstable.
And yes I've gone into recovery and wiped the cache partition several times to no avail.
I admit there are some issues with the battery and heat and bugs, but i have not experienced any freezing with the stock browser or any program really, alarm clock extreme and it works for me, I don't use the Facebook app often but the few times i have, no real issues sometimes it lags trying to update. I will say thay the market SUCKS or play whatever they call it. Maybe you got a corrupt OTA file or something is wrong with your update installation. Maybe try doing a factory reset, i know that sucks to do but i do it before every OTA and im not really experiencing any of the software issues you are experiencing. If that doesn't help, root it and use the razr 1.7 utility to reinstall the system files.
Did you try to wipe the device (factory default)? It helped in my case.

Data wipe, itll fix it. If you dont want to.do.that then root and wipe the cache and dalvik cache.

ICS is very different from GB, and Motonverizola tried really hard to get ICS to play well with existing GB cache data and GB settings. All of that stuff changed a LOT.
The problem isn't ICS: the problem is data conversion from GB to ICS.
Wipe the cache and dalvik. If that doesn't get it, then do a factory reset and set everything up again.
Mine runs for days with light use (1-3 hours a day), or a day+ with heavy use. It doesn't get hot, unless you mean that the other way. But that'd be kinda creepy.
Hi
This is my first post here at this forum and I'm not a Razr user but thinking about getting the Maxx because of it's hardware and big battery which fits my usage of a smartphone, I have a Galaxy S right now.
I have looked at some of the posts and screenshots of the battery usage on the new leaked/released ICS for the Razr and read about complains about the short lived battery and the devices that overheat, well, we had the same problem when GB has been released to the Galaxy S and that is all related to the Android OS app that is using the battery because it's got into a loop, this will not get fixed unless you make Motorola aware of the problem. I could be wrong but I think that is related to the dalvik-machine. Android OS should be using around a single-digit of the battery of all time (3%-7%), we don't have this issue anymore since Samsung fixed this bug in the later releases of GB firmwares.
A temporary fix of the Android OS is to reboot the phone when you can see that it's hijacking the battery, this is until Motorola fixes the issue.
I wish you all good luck and hope that you will get a better firmware soon.
Its always good practice to start fresh when accepting an update that big. Less variables = less problems.....
Id do a factory reset and start from scratch... that sux... i know, but so does a useless phone
Ics def wasnt all the hype.... but its also not that bad... just gotta start clean.
Good luck!
Complete disaster? How is it a disaster compared to my update? After the update I could no longer receive text messages, Consider the fact that I send a receive hundreds of text messages per day this is honestly the biggest cause of outrage I have with a flagship that can't perform even what a Nokia 6280 could, when I finally receive texts they come in 4 hours late and worse still, in DUPLICATES and I can't seem to find any solution to this as of yet. A factory reset fixes this for an hour at best but the problem suffices after that. Does anyone have a SOLUTION to this? Honestly driving me nuts
I agree with most others... do a factory reset. I always do after a major upgrade (and ICS is a major upgrade!)
Then check what apps you are putting on the machine; some cause issues. For instance, I put the new Starbucks 2.0 app upgrade on my phone yesterday - consumed battery like mad, phone ran hot (like cook-an-egg-on-it hot), runaway processes, etc. Turns out it was the new Starbucks app; after removing it the phone ran normal.
Otherwise I love ICS! So try the cache wipe; and if that doesn't help then do a factory reset and reinstall things. Takes time, but it saves in the long run.
Wow, this is crazy to hear. My update has been flawless but I did a factory reset after getting it. I bet if you did that it would fix 99% of your problems.
I also rooted after and now I'm running a cm9 rom. This is the best my phone has ever run.
Ultimately, even if you don't root you can fix most of these problems with a factory reset.

Hold down the Home button to see what's running, download a task manager to see what's dominating the CPU. The phone won't get hot by itself, something is using up the CPU (like you said) if you don't want to factory reset you've got to figure out what it is. Rooting and setting the CPU governor to hotplug will save quite a bit in battery (shuts the 2nd core off when not needed).
I'm on a Canadian leak, the first day battery performance was terrible. By the 4th day, the battery lasted longer than GB
I concur with everyone here about the factory reset.
As other's have mentioned, going from GB to ICS is a major overhaul. I've read elsewhere what this really entails and it's not pretty. Suffice it to say, I backed up all my user apps and data (using Titanium Backup), saved off all other things that were on my internal SD card just to be safe and then applied the OTA update in stock recovery, wiped data and cache and rebooted. I then rooted, installed Safestrap and flashed Eclipse ICS v1.2 RC1 and restored my apps with TiBu.
I also tried stock ROM as well and restored my apps via TiBu.
In both cases, no performance issues nor forced closes. Runs like a champ.
I'm running the latest .214 leak and my battery life has improved over .211.
.214
Razr Maxx
I was having shorter battery life with the ICS .211 build and then updated to .214
My battery life is way better then it ever was with GB or ICS .211
I ran it the other day for 36hrs and 3 of it actually talking on the phone and had 20% battery life left.
It has currently been on for 4hrs 6 min and is at 90%. light email and phone use. I do have an IMAP email account that poles every 10 minutes with push for instant updates.
Mine is running fine after simple reboot
I am getting great battery life and my Razr Maxx is working almost flawlessly after the ICS OTA stock update. I just rebooted it shortly after the update when it was running hot and haven't had any problems since.
If .214 is even better, great.
Looking forward to Jelly Bean to get even more from my device.

Was on the soak test and had the same battery problems. Only way to fix was via a factory reset. This did however fix all the problems.

Thanks for the replies everyone.
As mentioned I have tried booting into recovery and clearing the cache, but it doesn't help.
Some have suggested wiping the dalvik cache. However I don't see that as an option in the recovery menu. Do I need to root to have that option? Excuse my newness to this.
Worst case I guess I'll just have to do a factory reset

When I got my SGS3, I could have it on for about 2 days (with minimal use and bluetooth and gps off and such), but ever since I updated to 4.1.2 (from ICS to JB), it looks like the battery drains a lot faster. So I got Titanium Backup and removed most of Samsung's' bloatware, disabled Google now and finally got BetterBatteryStats to pinpoint the source. I found some minor things and disabled them too... I've optimized all settings across the board, yet I still can't get much longer than one day.
Now I get that one day is nice, and most people charge every day, but when you're used to having 2 days (or at least 1.5 on normal use), 1 day is just.. less
So, I am kind of hoping that someone with more knowledge than me (basically everyone here ) would have a look at my BBS dump file, because I'm kind of at a loss.
It would be much appreciated!

Do you mean "Location determined by wi-fi and/or mobile networks"? Isn't that used (among other things) to find the GPS sattelites way faster (because if it knows where you are, it knows where the sattelites are)? Because I use my phone for car navigation, I really would prefer not to wait 5 minutes while my phone searches the sky for GPS...
I'll turn the option off for now, but do you really think that's the main problem? Because I had the option on before this update.
Still, thank you for your suggestion
Location by wifi is unrelated to GPS location, it's just a way of roughly fixing your location by the networks and wifi around you.
It's a battery hog and doesn't matter AGPS, which is used to speed up GPS fixes but gets downloaded via your data connection.
I found JB to be better for battery life that ICS, even on a stock ROM. Since changing to a minimumcustom ROM based on the latest stock I get two days use with around 6hr screen on time.
If you are still on stock that was updated from ICS then you might be better off wiping the phone and flashing a fresh install, even if you only use the stock JB ROM for your country, as things might have become corrupted over time.

I think your issue is fast dormancy as you have the secril_fd wakelock.
There is an app on playstore that can toggle fast dormancy on or off on the Galaxy S3.
Give it a try and see if things improve.

Ok, I've installed it and turned FD off... I'll do a full charge now and see how long that keeps. Thanks for your suggestion! Is FD a new feature since JB? Because I haven't changed providers so if this has always been the case, it's probably still a seperate problem.
To be completely sure, I'd still like to do the complete reinstall, so I would really appreciate it if someone would point me in the direction of official updated stock roms. Thanks!

You can reset it completely through Kies if you go to Tools>Firmware Upgrade and Installation and follow the instructions this will flash the latest firmware and reset your phone, do any backups you need first like contacts etc, then root the phone again or do whatever you want afterwards.
FD is not new. It just depends whether you provider supports it or not. If it is not supported and switched on it can cause battery drain.
Saying that my network does support it but when I first upgraded to XELLA I started getting the secril_fd wakelock. Switching off FD solved it at the time. Since then I have made a few changes, including modem and have switched it back on again without issue.
I noticed you've also got the Multipdp wakelock. A modem change sorted that one for me.
As I say I've since moved back to XELLA without issue and neither wakelock has returned.

I've found all the JB ROMs that I've tried to consume alot more battery than ICS, with the same set of apps running and the same location/sync settings. I eventually reverted to CheckROM 3.5 (ICS) to get decent battery life again.

Ok, thanks for the info. I don't think that's my problem though: my provider hasn't changed, the only thing that changed is that I upgraded to JB. Either way, I tested it: with FD off I still have pretty much the same result (maybe a bit better, but I need to properly test that. Yet it's definitely not the problem ). Too bad, it was a good suggestion.

Thank you! I just did this. I expected that all my settings would be gone, but apparently that's not the case. All my apps remain, so I wonder if this wiped it properly? I did lose root though. Well, I'll charge it to 100% and we'll see what happens from there. Thanks!
Perhaps rolling back to your previous modem would help.

Either way, I tested it: with FD off I still have pretty much the same result (maybe a bit better, but I need to properly test that. Yet it's definitely not the problem ). Too bad, it was a good suggestion.
Thank you! I just did this. I expected that all my settings would be gone, but apparently that's not the case. All my apps remain, so I wonder if this wiped it properly? I did lose root though. Well, I'll charge it to 100% and we'll see what happens from there. Thanks!

overnight it lost 25% in 11h42m, so I'd say that's a definite improvement. It didn't see any use in this time, but it should last me at least 1.5 day now, so I guess the problem was in the update after all. The battery of my (6 months newer) SGS3 still holds out longer, but I think that's the battery itself: hers also charges faster than mine.
Thank you all, for helping to think up solutions and get it working for me again! :victory:
Edit: Multipdp is now a lot higer up in the list (it's the top partial wakelock), maybe I should change modems. Can someone tell me how?
You can download a flashable zip from here.

just flash it from recovery.

ROM Sotmax Ultimate V14
Kernel Yank555.lu-V3.1h
Hi,
I have recently (half a week ago) updated my SII to Jelly Bean from ICS. It's fully stock without root. However, I noticed right away that the battery started draining very quickly and the phone sometimes gets hot. Did a factory reset. Factory reset the phone and format the internal SD and remove the external SD. Didn't help in the slightest. Phone starts draining after resetting. I have tried to flash another stock JB ROM (XEU) and afterwards factory reset the phone again. No dice. I installed CPU Spy to see CPU consumption and it says the phone didn't go into deep sleep at all and 95% of the time it was at 200 Mhz over an 8 hour period or so. So there's a wakelock that's keeping the phone continuously on.
At first, "Media" in battery settings in Settings was the culprit, it drained about 50% of the battery. I have searched the web and it's a pretty common battery drain on JB. I did try to disable the service and its battery consumption went down dramatically. But for some reason it turned on again. But right now Android OS and Android System are both draining most of the battery. I have also installed BetterBatteryStats and according to that app there is a partial wakelock called "NlpWakeLock" by Google Services that's draining most of the battery. Last night, around 60% of the battery got drained overnight (80% > 23% to be precise). Which, clearly, is unacceptable.
I'm at my wits end. I have no idea how to solve this and because I really like the new JB features I don't want to go back to ICS (I did a fresh ICS install and the battery drained 2% overnight which is how it's supposed to be).
If there's any information you need to know let me know. Any help is appreciated!
Go back to GB with speedmod kernel is an option.

Do you bother reading the posts or just have a compulsion to post any old crap.
I see your advising people how to root,then you open up a new thread asking for help about rooting your phone.
And you are continuing to spam threads posting what other people have said already.

Do you mean going back to Gingerbread? I haven't figured out what the speedmod kernel is yet but if I were to switch back I would rather switch back to ICS. But preferably I'd stick to JB since I do love all the new features and options. I'm willing to flash another JB ROM without the battery drain issue. However, all stock ROMs that I have tried had the issue.
Do you know of any good JB ROM? I prefer to keep it as stock as possible. I did root when I had ICS installed though.
Battery Drainage is very common in JB Stock

Hey Kaigo ,
I have faced the same problem as you have faced ... Gone through a lot of problems to fix this Many of the Stock JB's for GS2 are having a lot of issues with the battery drainage
Well I had found a solution to this problem You can try installing the JB France update (XEF) & the UAE update (XSG)
It worked pretty well for me Try it and let me know if it worked for you
Regards

Wow, nice. Exactly what I'm looking for! I'm downloading the XEF update as I'm typing this. I'm going to try that and I will let you know the result.

Well repeating other peoples posts isnt helping anybody.
An update. I've installed the XEF update initially it had the same draining issue. However, I've also cleared cache and data in recovery mode and it seems to have solved most of the issue. I've got pretty good battery life now (about 1%/h idle).
But I did find another culprit draining the battery which is Dropbox. According to BBS the processes "wlan_rx_wake" and "h2_hsic" were draining the battery but I've uninstalled Dropbox now and it seems to have solved the issue. I really use Dropbox regularly though. Anyone got any idea what could be causing that?
Thanks for the help so far everyone! :laugh:

I have always had that feature disabled since I don't want to use it anyway. I have no clue what could be causing it. I want to use a packet sniffer to see what is sending and receiving data but the phone isn't rooted so I can't really do that unfortunately.
Hold on, I'ma freeze it with TiBu.
Test time.
PS: You really need to root that phone.

I just greenify Dropbox (actually, all apps which rely on an internet connection). Unfortunately for you, it requires root. IMHO, almost worth rooting for, although there's many better reasons than that.
Greenify is almost like a temporary freezing of the app, by stopping all background processes for the app. They automatically restart when you launch the app, and automatically turn off when the phone goes to deep sleep.

Im glad the XEF update helped
Well Dropbox always keeps on syncing stuff from the cloud and that might the real cause You should disable all the automatic syncing and keep it to manual sync as it syncs only on your commands and saves your battery!!

Check how much data is being downloaded. If a lot is being downloaded off WiFi, switch it off and see if that stops your drain. Then switch off Data on your cellular. Just to check which one's causing the drain. Believe it or not, I just rebooted my home wifi router and battery drain issue was over on my Galaxy S2.

I had previously rooted my phone when I was on ICS. I never used it too often though. I wanted to use Nandroid. I have no clue how to root JB though, without flashing a modded kernel (which I did with ICS).

That's very interesting. This might just be a good reason to root the phone. So I can use network log or shark to see which apps are sending and/or receiving data. I have this feeling Dropbox is going to be one of them..

Hmm, but I guess that you can't really freeze apps like Whatsapp, since you wouldn't be able to receive any messages then until you turn on your phone. But I'm getting convinced to root the phone again so I'm definitely going to give it a try.
