[Q] MJ7 battery life - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S 4

I've been on MJ7 for about a week now and I've noticed battery life is worse. My biggest user is the screen followed by Android OS. Android OS was never this high on the list before. Any ideas why this is happening?

i have not had any issues with battery life on MJ7 so far. at first i thought it was worse, but now it appears to have smoothed out. i let my phone go completely dead on the battery and then keep on the charger til its fully charged. that seemed to help out my battery life. i think i actually get better battery life after the upgrade. you could try a factory reset. or maybe seeing if any other apps are draining your battery, obviously if you do a lot of gaming or have your screen on for long periods of time your battery drains quicker. you may also want to turn your "auto brightness" off and manually control the screen brightness as its a battery killer

When this was happening on the first aosp 4.3 roms, deleting data for the play store and I believe the Google services framework and reboot went a long way to resolving. Also the wifi network settings under location services us a hog disable it unless you really need it.

I have had every build except mdk and I think this is the best battery life yet. And smooth as silk. Losing root was not a huge deal for me at all cuz I really like TW. I rocked wizzedbean on the razr maxx til I was eligible for an upgrade.

Did you clear your cache and everything? Sometimes that helps the Android OS stuff I think.

How often do you have facebook set to update? You could set the interval for something like 1-2 hours, that also helps.

Battery information

Hi all.. for the past the days I have noticed that the battery usage or the battery information tab (eg. Display 30%, Android OS 25%......) in the settings of my motorola razr doesn't add up to 100%.. It varies between 92% and 102%. All I did was root my phone a week back using Motofail and I unrooted it yesterday using Doomslord unroot. Should I factory rest my phone? Please help!!!
Also does anyone know or have you seen this "battery report.apk" file which is also known as "Cool Down Mode"? It is in your phone internal memory. Do you know what it does. Has anyone installed it and checked what it does?
Thanks I advance!!!

Try looking through your sync settings, set them as low as possible and be sure to exit your apps with the back button not hitting home
Edit : you could also use better battery stats

I have the paid version of jd, it seems to make things worse for me in terms of battery life on the RAZR, and the lag in the initiation of the cell radio was very annoying. It was great for the og droid though. On another note, freeze all bloat!, and you may have to go through and change the sync settings on each app that uses network sync individually. I'm hesitate to suggest this because there's so many post claiming it's bad for your battery, while I understand the train of thought, I still question the validity of the advice. So do this at your own risk. Since the os is reporting more than or less than 100% battery my guess is that the os's scale is off. The os shuts down your phone well before your battery gets to zero as a fail safe, and stops taking a charge at 100%. When you flash a new rom, or didn't charge the phone fully before you turned it on when new, or any other number of variables, your battery stats get mucked up. The old school way to retrain was turn off and charge for how ever long it takes to know your fully charged (over night), boot into recovery wipe battery stats, unplug boot up and run the phone until it dies, charge to 100 with out turning back on, then use as normal. I dont advise that method, my advice is to run phone until it dies, charge to 100 with out powering up, run phone normally

Ok I don't want to freeze my bloatware... And I completely drained my battery and charged it till 100 without powering up (twice).. But still have the problem...
Let me try the other method but where will I see the recovery wipe battery stats in the boot menu? ?
Thanks a lot for taking your time..

It is in cwm menu under advanced, if you don't have cwm there is a file in the root system, you'll have to research to find its location, (i cant remember where it is), that holds the battery stats, you can delete it and it does basically the same thing. You might could find an app on the market that will find and delete it for you. Just be careful, do it right, you can make it worse.

You should be fine, just let the phone charge to 100% and be sure not to boot up before it gets there, and by no means charge the phone while draining the battery

Have you ever considered something as simple as % rounding error? Seems more likely, currently mine shows 101%.
I was also curious, what in the world compelled you to bother to add up the percentages in the first place? ;-)
Peace!
Sent from my DROID RAZR using XDA
Just to be totally sure, you're having problems with battery life, its not just that your battery usages are off. The percentages are rounded, but shouldn't be off by more than 10%, if so than its a tell of another problem, also if your a medium- heavy user your screen should be the highest percentage, if its android os or system using a large percentage its normally bloatware in your root file system, if it's media, you need to look at the motocast apps, if its cell stand by, check the time with out signal, if you have a large % with out signal, you should 1st check for the most recent radio, 2nd find out where it is you're getting poor signal and keep your phone in airplane mode in that area if possible, if not only turn off/ on data as you need it, your cell radio seaching for towers will drain your battery quick, also, the reason i suggested better battery stats is it can provide a more detailed breakdown of what is using your battery and identify apps that are keeping your phone frome going into a lower power state with wakelocks

Thanks for the info.. The battery percentage ranges from 92-103%... And my highest battery consumer is the Screen followed by Voice calls and Android OS..
I will try getting better battery stats and check but I don't want to buy the app and experience the same problem..
If the battery life is getting affected will it be because of a faulty battery? can I get a replacement because of this?
And yes thanks a lot for spending your time..

Battery Life

I don't understand why I'm getting such awful battery life; I've heard such good things about AOSP as far as battery life is concerned. I've got screen on auto, and I used incredicontrol to set my governor (I think that's what it is called) to conservative. Can anyone help me dissect the problem?

How long was your screen on? If 1.5 hours or so, I would say your close to normal depending on what you were doing.
Get Better Battery Stats and see how long your phone is in Deep Sleep..and if not very long, you can see what is keeping it awake..
I didn't use it at all; I checked it after first block and it had lost about 10 percent. Then I checked it after second and that's what it was at

Your pic says the screen took 44% of the power. Consider the signal strength in your school. If you have a weak signal the phone uses more power. Maybe try airplane mode for part of the day. Also, I have found I get better battery life on the network as opposed to my school's wireless. The school's wireless is always polling the phone resulting in greater drain.
Here's the link to Better Battery Stats on XDA... FREE XDA versions are found at the bottom of post #2. I/We don't have your phone so other than general statements we are of little help. Get BBS and see what is using the juice...that's how I found out the school's wireless was waking my phone all the time.

well from what i see you have google now or some transit app running. those tend to take up a ton of battery. use the bettery battery stats that someone posted and see whats running. once you find out you can use an app like autostarts to keep stuff like that not running when it doesnt need to.
Also another way to tell whats running is to go to settings > apps > running. if you see a process you dont like running just kill it and try to stop it with autostarts. I know from experience that facebook is one of these pain in the a$$ apps that always wants to be running for some god forsaken reason. Anyway just start with that. thats probably your main problem as i can also see you have juice defender, which is probably helping battery.
There wasn't a download for it; only someone's text information. Does anyone have an APK for it? I don't have the money for it Before school starts tomorrow I'll be sure to kill running apps. Also, I wasn't on the school's Wi-Fi at any point because we don't have Wi-Fi, my high school is poor. Lol

autostart app won't run in foreground so you don't have to kill it. it'll stop access as it needs to based on what you disabled from automatically starting. be careful what you prevent from starting up cause it can defect your setup requiring a fresh flash install
This is my battery life just a few minutes before I posted it yesterday; I took it off the charger at the same time. For some reason yesterday the android system ran much longer than today; the difference is obvious on my battery life.

the 3 best things to do is keeping brightness down/off whenever possible, using better battery stats to monitor partial wakelocks and keeping apps from running too long in the foreground

A good thing to do would be, charge it Friday night, take it off the charger Saturday morning and let it sit on the counter of 1 hour, preferably 2 hours, then check to see what has been waking it up. You can google what you find to determine what process they're related to if not obvious to you.

[Q] Sudden change in Battery and Suspicious App?

Hello, all, since I've had my Note 2 I've been incredibly impressed with the battery live, much better than other droids I've owned. Within the last two weeks or so, however, I've seen a dramatic drop in battery life. Where I used to be able to last a day and a half without charging, The phone is now not capable of lasting through the day. There hasn't been any real change in my usage patterns, but I am constantly trying new apps, so I figured that one of the new ones must be the culprit. The stock battery stats indicated that Android System was consuming about 41 percent of the battery, which based on previous readings and having owned other droids seemed much too high. I downloaded Battery Stats Plus, which indicated hat the rogue app was wssyncmldm, consuming that same 41 percent. I wasn't familiar with this app, but google revealed that it manages ota updates? I tried rebooting the phone, and went back to Battery Stats Plus, which now indicated that same 41 percent, but named the app "Factory Test." I let the phone charge overnight to a full 100, then checking again today, I'm seeing similar numbers. Today Factory Test is listed at about 33 percent. Both apps are active in application manager, and reappear as soon as I force close them. Neither can be disabled on my stock, non-rooted note 2. I've not tried the factory reset just yet, was hoping to avoid that, but wondered if anyone had any suggestions.
Thanks so much, all!!!

I'm not sure how much help I can be, but I'll do my best.
Let's start with the obvious things
1. Try uninstalling any apps that you recently installed
2. In application manager go under all and look for the "wssyncmldm" culprit. I don't have it in my application manager but I have one that is very close in name
3. Have you recently installed any OTAs?
4. Are you rooted by any chance?
5. When I updated to the 4.1.2 update, I had a similar battery issue. I just ended up backing up all my apps with "Helium" (No root required if you plug it into a pc with some directions) and just did a factory in settings. It fixed the battery issue for me, though I never looked into it to see if it was this same culprit.
I hope I can help in some way, I'll try my best though!
Welcome to 4.1.2.. Went from 30 hours to 15....tempted to install a backup of 4.1.1 to see if it comes back. Bad news is 4.2.2 seems worse on battery until you change kernel. I've done it in og DROID but scared to on my note.

Only getting about 4-5 hours of Screen-on time? This might help!

Hi.
I am used to get about 4h30min-5 hours max but after doing this little trick I am getting 3 hours 20 minutes with 55% battery left.
The trick is to go into settings- apps- all, find android system and force close it. Don't worry, it will start up again immediately but the battery draining process seem to be killed.
Android OS is no longer the one causing the most battery drain. Android system has settled down too. Check it out!
(It seems like I got another problem to solve - Facebook is draining a whole lot now cos it's using the GPS. Still getting amazing battery life though!)

Coming from a Droid RAZR, you learn a lot of tricks to milk battery life. Trust me, the things I had to do to get those numbers aren't worth it. The drop off in the battery graph is when I got home and was able to turn everything back on and use it normally.
Right now, I average 18 hrs battery, and 5 hrs screen-on:
I am on stock ROM 11A.
Rooted and TWRP
Screen brightness set to auto/60% max
GPS and WiFi toggled on when I need it.
Everything on EXCEPT WiFi and Verizon location services
No disabled or frozen system apps or processes.
4 push emails.
I average 600 texts a month.
I average 6-8 GB on 4G a month.

For your Facebook GPS wakelock, let it connect and lock onto your GPS and the wakelock should stop. If you're closing up Facebook before it has a chance to lock, it will create the wakelock. If you don't want FB to connect to your GPS, make sure GPS is off before you open FB. Also, turning off GPS while in FB before it can lock will create the wakelock as well.
I can't express my gratitude enough. I reinstalled it to make it work lol

You're talking about the facebook part or force stop android OS?
The android system force closure. I uninstalled Facebook and downloaded fast for Facebook since I'm tired of the gps issue.

Hi.
I am used to get about 4h30min-5 hours max but after doing this little trick I am getting 3 hours 20 minutes with 55% battery left.
The trick is to go into settings- apps- all, find android system and force close it. Don't worry, it will start up again immediately but the battery draining process seem to be killed.
Android OS is no longer the one causing the most battery drain. Android system has settled down too. Check it out!
(It seems like I got another problem to solve - Facebook is draining a whole lot now cos it's using the GPS. Still getting amazing battery life though!)

Actually, the numbers are legit. I will admit though, I've never been able to get close to that again. My average when I first got the phone was between 6-7 hours screen on time and about 12 hours battery life. Those 2 days, I just happened to be working massive overtime. Almost all of the screen on time was the second day. The dropoff on the graph was when I got home, turned everything on, and actually used it. It also helped that my work provides me a work phone which I was using during that time instead.
I have tried to hit those numbers again, but I can't, it was a one time deal which is why I took a screenshot. In my head, I'm telling my self that the battery is starting to get worn, but the truth is, I can't put it down long enough or put up with all of the disabled features.
The best I've been able to do since then is 18 hours battery life, about 3 hours screen on. And, 7 hours screen on, 10 hours battery. At this point, I no longer care. I'm happy with my 15 hours battery and 4-5 hours screen on.
It would be more if the battery wasn't starting to wear out....

You have to do this whenever you reboot your phone. I usually turn my phone off, charge it and then turn it on. The first thing I do after putting my pin code in, is to force close andros system.
