Massive data usage! - LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Has anyone had issues with Google service account manager background data? Almost 5 gigs is enormous for this. I have had my settings the same with every phone I've had and it's only an issue with this phone. Also notice the great spike up in the graph within a short amount of time. .... I'm thinking firmware issue?

Sorry bro. Mine is 9nly about 5mb

That's Google play not the same I'm pretty sure.

I don't have anything with usage like yours. Something must be stuck.?

I think it was the backup thing

I saw such a spike when I allowed photos to sync in Google. One time thing

It will backup your data and it will increase day by day. It store your password auto complete and etc. You can clear it if you want.

You can stop the background data usages by using greenify. It will hibernate the app and save lots of data.

Umm maybe some of you may be right but again almost 5 gigs as background is enormous. My pics and vids were already backed up first off second all my settings have always been the same with all my phone's and I've never had an issue . you can't restrict background or some apps won't work and I have never had to do that before. I just want to know if any one else have had this issue. My wife's s6 only has less than 100 mb and she does the same thing I do . i still think it's a firmware issue , I master reset my phone so we will see what happens.

AT&T Mark the Spot

I checked to see what this is and am thinking of uninstalling it. It is the second biggest puller of power from my battery. Will there be any issues if I uninstall it?
Why do you say that? I use it only when there is an issue. Used it on my ipad and note.
Does not seem to drain.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
I can verify on two separate Notes that the Mark the Spot app runs in the background constantly, and was often second or third in use of the battery. Even force closing doesn't work, it loads back up soon afterward. It seems to be using GPS occasionally in the background as well.
OH Snap, will look a bit closer then. thanks

OK, I just looked in the Task Manager, and in the About Phone for battery users, nothing in there for the Mark the Spot app.
Am I missing something.?

Just freeze it with TiBu. No issues there.

Have you opened it since you last rebooted? Maybe it doesn't autostart. All I know is on the two Notes I've installed it on, it kept showing up as a top battery user, and while it didn't appear in the Samsung/TouchWiz task manager, it did appear in the default Android one as being active and sucking up RAM and CPU cycles. And I noticed the GPS in use frequently. That all stopped when I uninstalled it from both.

Google Finance not working

I have the Google Finance app on my Defy+. In the last few days I noticed that the ticker had stopped updating. Tapping on the widget gets me an incomplete share price page and the title line says "Loading" continuously - it never finishes loading
I tried uninstalling Google Finance and re-installing it from Play. The result of that was that I couldn't add a share to the ticker list at all
Fortunately I had a Ti backup of the app so I restored that, with its data, and I now have the share back in the ticker - but it's still not updating. I've tried adding a different share to the ticker and it just sits there with the sync icon in the notification area, achieving nothing.
It's as if Google Finance can't talk to Google any more. All my other network apps, including eg Google Maps, work fine.
Anyone got any ideas?
I have the same problem, but my prob only started midday today
I also have the same problem. No idea what to do.
---------- Post added at 08:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:29 AM ----------
Its like Finance has been dying a slow death. I haven't been able to get my widget to auto update at all for months on multiple phones. Now this. I really wish there was another compact widget that would simply give me the current dow. Time to move on. Anyone have any suggestions?
The app called "stocks" uses your google finance portfolios and seems to work still (indicating a server-side problem for google). I don't like it as much as Finance, but at least it works. Doesn't come with a widget, though
Thanks but I really need a home screen widget
---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:50 PM ----------
I think it says something that we are the only three people across the world making noise after Finance goes non-functional for about 3 days now.
I thought it was surprising that no one complained when the widget quit auto updating months ago. Here it goes completely dead and hardly a word.
If anyone is interested, I tried most of the widgets and this one is the only one that seemed to work and auto updated in as little as 1 min increments per the settings.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.inox.inostock&hl=en
I have the same problem
For the past few days It didn't update any stock quotes. I deleted data and uninstalled then reinstalled and now it doesn't even update my portfolio from Google Finance server and can't add new stocks or do nothing. It is completely non-functional now.
I'm also having the exact same problem on HTC Evo 3D.
- App wasn't syncing
- Deleted data and lost my portfolio
- Reinstalled and still not working
- Sync icon stays in the left hand corner but it does not update
The portfolio is still available on the full/mobile websites.
Same problem here with my motor RAZR Maxx. Widget stopped updating so I uninstalled and reinstalled. Now I can't get it to sync with my saved stocks.
Hmmm... yesterday I needed to rebuild my Galaxy S2 phone (had tried a different OS and had problems restoring the original). I had deleted google finance 2 days ago.
Today I reinstalled Finance, just to see.... and it's working fine! Got my portfolio reloaded and replicates prices nice & fast!
Soooo either Google Finance just started working again for everyone, or the solution to the problems reported here is some sort of delete..wipe..reinstall cycle
Good luck ladies & gents.

Apparently no reinstall needed. Wonder if by some miracle auto update started working also. We'll see when the market opens.
I sent an email to the support email address in the app and now it's working. Maybe they do read those emails.
Yup, working for me again now. Must have been a Google problem. (I did e-mail them about it twice but didn't hear anything back.)
Now all I have to do is find the RBS stock mnemonic which gives me the real current price of RBS ordinary shares. I know they're not great but 7.45p sure ain't right...
Google's Problem
I second ejstubb's assessment. I initially uninstalled / reinstalled with no resolution. As of last night, it seems to be working fine, so i can only assume it was a problem on Google's end.
Does anyone except me care about the fact that the stock monitor widget has quit auto updating months ago? I guess no one uses it?

CM10 battery drain

Flashed over to CM10 today. I had to flash the kernel manually through fastboot. This is not normal.
It was off the charger from a full 100% to 42% in only two hours?? I haven't been using my phone to watch videos or listen to media either. it was just casual texting. The brightness is dimmed as well with the screen sleeping at 5 sec. Any idea with a fix?
Yep, you've got a wakelock

Use either betterbattery stats or GSAM battery monitor to determine the culprit

i generally start, to get a high level view and without adding any 3rd party apps, under settings and battery status. there is a decent graph and list of apps running on the phone. i'd start there and see what is going on.
generally, if you're on the same cm10 as everybody else and nobody else is experiencing the issue, then i'd be in inclined to lean towards a 3rd party app causing the issue.
as is normal with these types of bugs, it could be quick or it might take some time to narrow down the issue ... many variables involved. best approach, as suggested above is to start analyzing battery usage, which is closely tied to how often and long applications are running.
feel free to post up some details around your research and we can help provide feedback/suggestions.
hope that helps!
I have run into a few wakelocks with cm10 as well. Another thing you can try to do is analyze the alarms within terminal emulator. Launch terminal emulator > su > dumpsys alarm. Scroll to the bottom and see if anything jumps out at you in terms of holding a wakelock.

I used GSAM and it said I had a wakelock but never pointed to where..i rebooted the phone and let it charge over night.. if it happens again today i'll look further into it. I used the stock battery app and seen mediaserver was the main culprit but after doing some research it can be a numerous number of apps..so i looked at GSAM like suggested but it didn't specify. I'll update later with any definite results..im sure im not the only one with the issue.

Another app that I have found useful is "autostarts". It allows you to limit what apps startup at various times (i.e. startup, charging, etc.). I disabled a lot of autostarts for programs like "maps" and it seems to have prevented some of the battery drain that was occuring to me. Good luck.

I have CM10 M1 and mine has not been draining that fast, but seems to be going down quicker than usual. My phone was kind of warm today as well. Samsung specs of the phone state like 10 days of stand by time so it should be lasting a LOT longer.

It does if you just check the stats for longest wake or something like that, quite accurate

You just have to find which apps are causing them and either play with the settings to try and prevent it or uninstall/freeze them. I get some pretty bad wakelocks on cmx also...I use BBS to monitor what's causing them.

Force close the apps but most of the time they do come back, freeze them in titanium, uninstall them, or if you can, adjust any settings that could affect wake lock I.e. maps, there's an option to allow it to randomly update your relative position to acquire faster lock, this can be turned off

I found them and had a wake lock. Thanks man
No more wake locks. I guess 17 hours without a charge and still at 35 percent is a battery increase from touchwiz. I think heck yes!

[Q] Error Message - w-home not responding

YES! Annoying as hell!
I had this same problem after installing an app that, I think, was written for the Gear 2, and quickly (sloppy) patched to work with the S..
I did most everything I could to get the error to stop, but once the issue starts...that's it...the remedy is within the currently inaccessible system files.
In the end, I had to do a full reset AND setup. And, FYI, I was unable to use the restore function from any of the previous backups (this only replicated the error).

It seems that there is a number of applications that can trigger it. I do not know enough to spot what they have in common but I found another culprit: Appy Geek for Gear. Keep it installed you face the problem in one of its notifications. Uninstall it, the problem is gone.
It also seems that until you find which app gives you the problem, there is a way to avoid it: Turn Notifications off from the Android Gear Management app.
I don't have any of those apps and I had the device do that to me as well. I rebooted the Gear and the issue continued, but once I cleared all 50 of my notifications, I haven't had that problem.

Was able to clear notifications and that seemed to resolve it. The timing was every 2-3 days for me and then the lock up would start. I have minimized notifications to only the most critical ones (which makes sense). So far so good.

I hada same trouble with news republic... Very annoying!
Actually, as somebody else said it is because of the notifications. The apps don't really do anything to the watch unless they're running and they crash your phone. I would've assumed that notifications would clear from the watch once they were cleared from the phone but they just accumulate over time. The problem seems to be that each new notification adds another page to the homescreen to the left. Just clear your notifications every once in a while and it will stop freezing up, it did with me.

High Google Play Services, Android System and Mi service framework usage.

Hi everyone.
Recently, I saw my phone's battery decrease considerably, and by going to the battery usage stats, I found out the following:
* Google Play Services used about 25% ;
* Android System used about 15 % ;
* Mi Service Framework used about 7 %.
These are really huge numbers, and happen every single time. These numbers keep roughly the same wether the battery level is 90% or 10%. Even after resetting fully my phone (official Global ROM with Pie, bootloader unlocked but stock recovery and no Magisk / etc.). While I got near to 10 hours of SoT before, I now barely get 6 hours, without playing any game - just browsing internet, reading books and listening to music with my headphones.
I uninstalled many applications, but nothing worked. Although I didn't test it more deeply, this behaviour doesn't seem to happen in custom ROMs.
Does anyone have an idea to solve this?
Thanks in advance for your help !
So, I tried to disable synchronization as well as using power save mode, but that doesn't change anything. Any idea?
Strange, did you try to clear data in play services? And maybe clear cache in android system?
Yes I did, I also performed a factory reset from recovery > wipe but it didn't solve the problem...

Install BBS(BetterBatteryStats) and take an idle dump (read the OP in BBS's XDA thread on how to do it) and post it in the BBS thread. Someone will respond.

Sorry to hear that. I don't have these issues, but you can try the EU ROM, I haven't tried myself, but I read from a lot of users that it's better than global. Or try the beta ROMs

Unfortunately, I couldn't
The only way I found to manage it is to fully disable any Internet connection (no 3G, no Wi-Fi), and then Google Play Services totally stops draining battery. But this is somewhat inconvenient...

Have you tried refusing all its permissions? Be aware this might break some apps until you re-enable them.
