Yeah, i searched for this and apparently it was addressed in some firmware a while back, kF something. Im running the stock bell rom atm (kg2) with CFroot kernel, and the past two days I've noticed at some random time during the day, wifi sharing will randomly turn on and i will not notice.
It will then continue to run, eating up my cpu to the point where I've lost like 20% off my battery before i notice that my phone is randomly hot now and what the hell. The past two days its used 20% of my battery, and I've nEVER EVER tried to use wifi sharing ,seems to randomly turn itself on whenever it feels like.
Can anyone chime in? Especially a bell user, do you guys have this phantom wifi sharing thing going on too? I'm confused, because if samsung fixed it back in KF4 r something, why am i experiencing it in KG2?
Thanks...
I thought that issue was solved with KF3 and later, least I don't have it anymore.

Yeah, i read some threads on here, and all the people were like yay! its gone samsung fixed it. Don't know why or how I'm experiencing it, since the threads did say that using wifi has nothing to do with wifi sharing..
i was on KE7 i think and when i looked at the battery usage screen it had wi-fi sharing there at like 17% of the battery

I've only had my GS2 for a week and I am still running stock Bell ROM and kernel (KG2). I have noticed the same thing occasionally though. I was wondering if it has anything to do with these Gameloft games. I know they have ability to do multiplayer over wifi. Maybe they just leave the sharing service turned on even when exiting the game?

Wow thank god I'm not the only one with a bell GSII that has this issue, its odd that samsung fixed it but it happens on our i9100 though. No it can't be, because the process actually labels as the wifisharing apk or w/e. Ive never ever launched any of the game loft games either.
So i think the only choice we have is to delete the app/freeze it using titanium backup or something?.. its pretty annoying because it always eats up at least 10-20% of my battery before i notice it.
Freeze it and WiFi Sharing Manager. It's about as useful as Bluetooth file transfer (i.e., hardly ever used by anyone), and if you do need it, you can always unfreeze it. Samsung really needed to add a toggle for it.
Freeze it with Titanium.
Does anyone know what this wifi sharing actually does? I can still tether and I can still use Kies once i froze it so what does this even do?
It seems just about anything will trigger WiFi sharing to come on. No app specific, almost random. I swear you cough and it'll come on sometimes.
But for us using the Bell S2, unless you want to gamble with a different Kernel (hit or miss on phone functionality issues), we're stuck with it until we get a fix through Kies.

Yes, you can still tether hot spot as well as connect to wi-fi or do anything when you freeze wi-fi sharing and wi-fi sharing manager. I can't beleive the Bell KG2 still has this problem. I had it on KE7 but one of the next firmwares seemed to fix it and it *never* triggers. I think Wi-fi sharing is kind of like bluetooth sharing where you can send files over wi-fi to another device. When browsing in file manager you can click share and share something over wi-fi, bluetooth, gmail. So I would assume that if you chose to share the file over wi-fi, that would be when wi-fi sharing would be invoked. I just don't know what devices would use wi-fi sharing...perhaps you'd need another SGS2
use titanium backup and freeze it and all of the other wifi apps you will see in the list. i froze everything that said wifi and not only did the issue go away, but wifi still works for surfing the net and downloading data.
from what i have read, in order to use wifi sharing the other device has to have that feature enabled as well, so its not like you can use it much anyways.
as for the previous commenters comment on trying another kernel and losing functionality, that has not been the case for me. check in the development section and read up on some of the kernels there. i am using the one with ninphetamine in the title and it works great
Hello guys
Being a long time member, and having rooted many of my devices before (Xoom, HTC Sensation etc) I have seen complaints like people are posting where some here are experiencing no battery/rebooting issues(like me) while others are experiencing the opposite. The first thing that any experienced developer here on XDA would tell you is that something went wrong when updating to the new .13 update, which is why some are experiencing problems, while others are not. It does not make sense that a good majority of us, have no issues...if the new .13 update was bad/faulty, then it would affect all of us, not just some. I would highly recommend that people with issues reformat/start from scratch, as this has helped others with similar issues. If this does not help, then unfortunately you just experience a bad update, which of course the only fix would be is to try to reinstall the update (easy to do if rooted) or wait for a new update from Asus.
Also, if your battery is dying quickly, check to see if it is warm to the touch even if you are not using it. If so, then this would definitely point to an app trying to do something in the background without your knowledge..maybe there is an app trying to sync but your wifi is off, or an app that you installed that does not play nice with ICS. I would suggest that those with problems can list their installed apps, and those without issues can see if they have any of the apps on their devices...this can help narrow the issue down and hopefully find the culprit.
Thanx

All fair points, but many people suspect that there are at least two batches of Primes floating around with different hardware. After all, even before this update, there were groups of people that had freezes and reboots and others who had none.
Another telling point is that as far as I can tell, .13 update completely fixed Primes that were previously having sleep of death and reboot problems, and caused sleep of death, reboot and battery problems only on Primes that were previously working fine. This also suggests two different hardware sets to me (e.g., they tested the .13 update only/mostly on the set of Primes that had previous problems).
the bad update/ flash/ application as a culprit to all the Primes problems went out the window long ago this is all horse**** the problem is with the tegra3 in some way and different hardware variances in X Prime vs B Prime vs Z Prime etc....etc...etc...

But that doesn't make sense either, because I had no rebooting issues before and no battery issues after updating to .13.
What we need here is hard data evidence from something such as a battery/hardware/resource monitor, which I have not seen from anyone with battery issues.
I don't have the issue so there is really nothing for me to monitor and gather data from.
Just had this issue pop up. Was using my Prime this morning on the charger, closed the screen (have the dock) pulled the plug put it in my bag for the day. Went to class, and then to work pulled it out at 6pm to check out a new note taking app and found my Prime to be HOT, like I left in in the car on a sunny day hot. Opened it up and it wouldn't come to life, held the on/off till it "shut off" then powered it back on. Battery life is 80% prime 14% dock. As requested my apps are as follows.

Crazy how my prime is never affected negatively from these updates. Ill check n see.

If your TFP is hot it could be an indication that the processor is running something and causing heat.
Try an app like SystemPanel to monitor resource usage. You may have to get the paid version in order to track app resource usage history
https://market.android.com/details?id=nextapp.systempanel
Here is another good website to find other apps to monitor usage and find out what exactly is using your battery.

Have people experiencing the issues gotten the OTA or did they do the update via file where you system partition is formatted? Wonder if some file(s) didn't get updated properly via OTA but work fine via .zip update.

That's actually a pretty good question! Along with posting a list of apps...thinking a widget is trying to sync constantly?? Also, have you guys checked your app intervals...too many apps syncing at a low interval will kill your battery
I couldn't do the OTA, so I had to do the wipe and full install from .zip

Although I didn't suffer from issues here ln battery, after hearing about it, I went in and changed all intervals and cut off anything unnecessary. I especially made sure to raise email interval. As that's the thing that goes off the most. When it does it also causes the audio to go off constantly. So far I've been getting even better battery life than before in deep sleep. Actually very impressed how lil energy is used while in deep sleep. Before o took my screenshot and used tablet, it was in deep sleep for over 7-8hrs. And didn't budge from 100%. That's pretty impressive.

Yes! My wifi signal strength matches my Moto Xoom, I haven't had one reboot..GPS is weak but I honestly didn't buy the tab for that (Ipad users don't have it, but who cares its not a navigation device) . My 1080p movie playback is flawless, colors are rich. This is truly a sexy, powerful beast of a tablet! I'm sure that we all can agree on that...I'm sure that Asus will work out the kinks that some are having soon.
Everywhere I go, even Ipad owners love the way this Tablet looks, especially the screen display

Yeah, I'm wondering if people have their update intervals low an the system is constantly trying to update apps in the background?? This would explain the warm/hot backs of the Primes by the batteries for some
The battery, sleep of death and random reboot IT IS CAUSE BY THE NEW OTA .13
i have factory restore 3 times no app install, same problem
i have push the OTA .13 MANUALLY TWICE same problem without installing app.
there's no way to get around this, only a new firmware fix or backflash to .11 only solution for us having problem with this new .13

Why are any users experiencing the range of issues this tablet is presenting while others are not? We have 3-5 major bugs that are sporadically scattered across a wide range of serial numbers. I believe its downright obvious that TFPs have a variation in hardware quality and/or quality control issues. It's fracking embarrassing. To say that only some people are having this battery issue just continues to follow the trend that has been ASUS the past 3 months.

Im guessing the reason for most of these problems is going from HC to ICS without a full wipe.
I have flashed thousands of roms on my devices since Windows Mobile 6.1 and when portion of people have issues they are told to check md5 sums and full wipe.
A little from column a and a little from column b perhaps.

This.
I had no sleep of death problem until the update, and it's ridiculous how fast it's burning through battery now.
I have experienced the tablet shutting down when I am watching a HD video on Youtube or locally from the device. It does not always happen but what is consistent is it always happens when the video begins to drop pixels. For whatever reason If the video begins to degrade, the application locks up and the tablet shuts down. Anyone else experiencing this issue and have a fix?
Happens to me only when I'm watching videos on youtube, when I plug my tablet into the tv using the HDMI adaptor, and overnight when I wake up and its turned off. Other than that I don't get any shutdowns from general use at school, on pretty much all day taking notes browsing the web and movies/music.

I too am growing more frustrated. Rather than shutting down, it would be better if the app just crashed. Maybe the problem will be addressed in the JB update.

I wonder when we'll see the JB update! No leaks or any news on that. So much for Sony claiming it will be out shortly after launch. Oh well.
Also waiting patiently on the JB update. Hopefully it ll clear up the worst bugs, and maybe even improve optimization. So far, I get 6 hours of normal web browsing on lowest brightness possible. Seems quite a bit far from what they promise, and also what many reviewers claim. Allthough very mixed opinions on the battery life. Also it takes more than 9 hours to recharge from zero. Sony says 5.. :/ anyone else experience these lack of power management? Think i might go to the shop for a new one, if they agree, that the battery is somehow faulty..

Well guys this is my swan song. After the last couple of shutdown events, I have reluctantly decided to part with my Xperia Tablet S. I have recently received the Nexus 7 and it has been pretty stable. I hope Sony works out the kinks. Good luck to you all.
Happened to me once, maybe twice, but never watching an HD video on youtube. What bothers me most is the underwhelming web browsing. It should be stellar.
SO any ETA on JB maybe skip it and directly go to KLP 4.2??
guess no announcement made yet

I also contacted Sony about this, but no clear info from their side. That's pathetic. It's a severe bug which makes the tablet in parts unusuable. For me, it happens not only when playing videos, but also when listening to web radio, using camera, browser or mail.
Has anyone some update on this or Jelly Bean. If this issue is not fixed soon, Sony will have seen the last money from me...
Your not alone it happends most often in browser but can even happen during offline playback.
I think sony has set the energy saving to tight causing tablet to constantly switch energy states constantly playing video's causing corruption when skiping thru video a lot.
Just try play video and keep skipping and reload other video's asswell i can force it to crash sometimes.

I think it's a more general issue, not only related to video playback as my device also shuts down when starting apps like mail or web radio. Maybe power saving / voltage switching of the SOC might be the reason, nevertheless, they should fix this the sooner the better...

This latest release has me really pleased with my Nexus 10's speed, response, and stability. It appears they got it right for the use of my tablet. :victory: It will be very interesting to see what the priorities and advantages will be going forward with custom ROM and kernel development!

Yup. I really liked it before, but now with 4.2.2 it seems that this lone issue was finally resolved. I'm going on 61 hours uptime since installing the update, and haven't had a single hiccup. Fast, smooth... Fantastic. Loving it.

They finally fixed the time bug that caused mine to constantly be behind 10 minutes.
My experience is a little mixed. I play a lot of MC4 without any stutters or lag prior to 4.2.2. But now I am getting constant stutters during multiplayer game play. I found myself going back to 4.2.1 to be able to play my MC4. That was the only issue that I encountered while on 4.2.2.

Since upgrading to 4.2.2, I have not had chrome freeze or the n10 reboot. That's wonderful!!!
I have Battery Monitor Widget Pro running with an alarm set if the battery hits 95d f. Since 4.2.2 I had the alarm go off while charging with the pogo cable and running daydream 'colors' (first time trying daydreams) and again when a 30 minute youtube video playing through hdmi (no charger). The temp went up in less than 5 minutes after the video/animation started. Felt extremely hot around the camera. Never had that happen before, only time the temp went up was after 30 minutes of a graphical game play.
Battery temp is usually around 82, almost never above 90f and certainly not in 5-10 minutes. Gonna keep an eye on it, but it is a new problem for me and related to the video.
After update to 4.2.2 my bettary is bad. :'( on Android 4.2.1 I usually get about 7-8 hours screen on, but on 4.2.2 I get 5-6 hour screen on. But with 4.2.2 my Nexus 10 more fast and smooth

This is a hardware related issue!

I'm glad 4.2.2 has fixed many of the soft reboot/crashes and things like that but I still feel that the nexus 10 isn't as snappy as it should be. I feel there's still residual lag during transitions and alot of apps don't run well (I think that's more hardware optimization though). The nexus 10 menu's feel a bit slow.
IMO the nexus 4 on stock feels much smoother.
Battery life appears fine and no more random lockups or reboots since the upgrade several days ago....Very happy now!
Thanks for 4.2.2 update. I no longer face hang/auto restart.
Reboots and crashes are gone it seems. Chrome would crash every time I opened it, now it is rock solid. I would also have random reboots at least twice a day. 0 since the update. Bootlog Uptime says 4 days 4 hours.
I still have issues with Wi-Fi though. My University has multiple AP's with the same SSID, and my N10 has issues finding and staying connected to the strongest signal. It will stay connected for maybe 5 minutes, then the Wi-Fi looks like it resets or something. I tried a logcat dump and nothing notable shows anything.

Problem with XBMC is the interface is still sluggish and is a burden to work with. Especially if you setup a samba share and let it import your PC's music and movie collection. XBMC is just way too bloaty for a tablet and is currently the #1 contender in the "How to drain your battery the fastest" department.
Video playback
Hi,
I have flashed the 4.2.2 stock rom and there are some issues, which are not fixed, and some which seem to be new.
- I had one freeze when the tablet was on standby. Only a reboot fixed it and my battery level was about 10% lower as before. Ok, this might be an app, which is misbehaving, I'll monitor it.
- Then I had the first time this time bug, where the time shown is some minutes off sync.
- The worst thing is, that 4.2.2. seems to have broken the video playback in some apps. Playback is stuttering and some frames are dropped. For example in the watchever app, which worked fine in 4.2.1
Google Movies does not seem to be affected.
Anyone else noticing the video playback issue?
Regards,
Goldstein

My brother had the same issue on his Galaxy Tab some time ago... He was running some Cyanogen alpha though and flashing to a newer version resolved the issue. You could investigate whether a fresh flash resolves your issues...
OnTopic: Did not notice much improvement in 4.2.2 (CM10.1) as the device was running without any problems and there was not really something to improve... However benchmarks scores did go up - Antutu went up from ~13500 to ~16500 and Quadrant from 4800 to 4950.
Android version 5.0.1

its buggy and lagging few force closes
Not had these issues. Not buggy or battery issues used watch all day and on 87 percent
I have notification issues...sometimes the notifications doesn't show up
Mine also seems fine. No crashes or bad battery. It must be linked to an app you've installed that isn't fully lollipop compatible.
Not had notification issues if it helps

Among a couple of other annoying things this is the biggest issue I have. I think it depends on if I have for example a future reminder sitting in the tray. The often times hangouts don't come in then other times it does..
I have the same issues with the notifications not coming in. It's always been Hangouts when I've noticed it. This didn't happen before the L update, that I noticed at least, but the watch was still pretty new to me.
Force closing is a bit much here lately. Seems like when it does it is hung up syncing or something

Mine has been to lately. It looks like it's Google now/search for me every time. Once in a while when I give a voice command.
Newbie to watch
Hi:
I just got one of these off of ebay. I came from a TOQ, which I liked a lot. I thought I would try a Android Wear device. So far, I am not that impressed. I have 2 main issues: 1) the battery life sucks. I got maybe 6 hours. This makes the watch almost useless. 2) the "tilt to wake screen" feature is not working., which might be affecting (1). The watch is running wear 5.0.1.
Does anyone have any advice on how to make the battery life better? I have read that the old OS had a longer battery life. Do you recommend rooting the watch and putting an older OS on it?
Did you factory reset it? 6 hours? That is not right at all.
Check the battery life in the Android Wear app... that should tell you if some rogue app is killing it too.
Some apps you already have on your phone when you pair the watch will install a wear app on your watch without telling you. Like I Heart Radio and Amazon Shopping.

Thanks. I found SYU ware manager since I posted this and killed some things. Let's see how it goes today.

Well, that really didn't help all that much. I took the watch off the charger around 7am and it would have run out of power at around 4:15 - only ~8hrs. I would like it to do better. I will move this discussion to the Battery Life Discussion.
Thanks.
