Huawei Home battery drain - Huawei Mate 10 Questions & Answers

I've got no widgets but Huawei Home is constantly pulling 10-15% of battery. Tried Nova Pro and Evie, same result.
Tried deleting cache of the app and also of the whole phone, no difference.
Any ideas on what I can do other than a factory reset which I really don't feel like doing as it's a lot of work?

Same problem here on Honor 10, after upgrade to Android Pie

[help]A huge lag issue with my watch that has not gone away since I got it.

Hello, I am really depserate for a fix or answer about what should I do. I have been using LG G Watch for around 4 months now. It is all great and good, but it is super laggy. Unusable most of the time. I can open google fit properly without lag perhaps once a week. Right now as I write this. It takes around 2 seconds to light up the screen. Some 3 secons to open up the menu (the search thing under which all apps are located). And google fit takes around 3 secons to open it up as well. Ah, and it froze up. Great experiance huh? Reseting and restarting the device does not fix it. Would a custom rom make it run faster? What should I do?
Few things to note,
Paired with Nexus 5 (stock 5.1)
Watch version is stock 5.0.2
Apps that are currently installed from market on watch , (though I did some tesing and even deleting most of these apps does not fix the lag)
Wear browser
calculator
calendar
gallery
wear launcher
wear messenger
wear aweare
In the battery info (on android wear application in your phone), is there an application draining the battery ?
Have you tryied to reset the watch to factory settings ?

Yes I have done factory reset many times.
Here is the battery stats from wear application (attachment)
I've had a similar issue where the watch would become completely unusable and the battery would be empty within 1 or 2 hours. On my watch Wear Mini Launcher seemed to be the problem. After removing it the watch has become much more stable and responsive.
I will try that out, thanks!
I had the same problem while on 5.0.2, stock or rooted and in the end even with a custom kernel. So much lag that it took many minutes to reboot the watch (without the rear pin).
but since version 5.1.1 , it's like a new watch and no lag.
if you didn't received the OTA, use lg g watch tool
The version 9.8 will flash 5.1.1 if you choose to return to stock, anyway all the data come from the phone so you can reset it without any doubt.
my watch had some difficulties to be recognized on my main PC once in fastboot mode. I tried for 2 hours and the solution was to use another computer (but not all people have many computer).

Not responding and restarting

Hi,
My Xperia Z ultra was working fine until 3 hours ago. There were few updates from googleplay, authorised, left in charge, came back 2 hours ago and it has been freezing , shutting and restarting continuously, it freezes the UI , xperia home app and evertything else.
I use it for business and it doing my head.
thank you for your help.
Ok that is weird. My friend just asked me regarding her Xperia Z Ultra. It has the same symptoms as the one you described, and it also happened since 1-2 days ago, when she left the phone on charge, and it updates some applications on google play. I already tried uninstalling some apps to no avail. Removing the SD card lets you navigate your phone longer, but when you try to launch ANY apps (including the option to factory reset your phone) it will immediately freeze, and restart. I might try installing custom ROM in this thing...
Solved
Hi, being for business and out of desperation I have hard reset it. It wasn't easy as it would freeze before I could press the relevant button. What I have done is let the phablet battery die, recharge it completely on off mode, turn it on, follow the link for the reset option, and it worked! It took another 3/4 hours to reinstall everything but so far so good, I hope it helps
got same problem within 2 days,i have two xperia and always hang & restart...any solution ??
Another instance...
I updated 48 apps today on the Google Play Store (i've disabled auto update) and i'm now in a bootloop as well...
I guess it's on of the Sony or Google apps that had an update that would cause this?
I think the issue is related to Xperia Home, will switch to default launcher and check.
Got same problem. Short story: did the factory reset, issue slowed down a bit but still present, now I'm downloading the same stock rom via flash tool and after flashing see if the problem stopped...
same Problem to me. did the factory reset by companion and it worked for two days, no started again with the restart loop and freezing continously... any Infos from Sony...?
I just called the Xperia Support. It is just a Facebook problem. Simply deinstall Facebook app and your mobile will work again without any problems. Facebook has been informed about the issue. when the problem will be solved by Facebook is unknown...
I have C6833 and same symptoms. When I check Sony Diagnoistics app it shows Instagram caused system freeze/crash.
Instagram freezes mobile and then it restarts. Something like overheat protection inside forcing a restart after app freeze.
Also Facebook app crashed when you just start and flashes multiple times.
Those two apps updated by Facebook and I believe some compatibility issue.
Found older version of Facebook from apkmirror and installed.
Now Facebook & Instagram not crashing, mobile not restarting.
JFYI version from June 14th.

Update: I flashed the same stock rom with flashtool and everything is ok now.... It looks like the rom corrupted somehow and the factory reset didn't helped completely...
I also noticed it is caused by the latest Facebook update. Just check the latest reviews now on the play store...
Removed Facebook app (luckily also not part of ROM). Phone now stable and 24/7/365 50% CPU usage dropped to around 20%. The last Facebook update is very bad... Not going to use it anymore on my Ultra... Facebook is now blacklisted for my Z.
Second update: facebook worked for 2 days and again stopped working, messenger constantly showing one unread message which I opened 100 times, but the number notification on icon is still present. Also sometimes a random app freezes, phone looses touch and reboots after some time... Looks like something in hardware is slowly diying...
Solved
As some of you guys found out the culprit is the latest update from FB. After uninstalled it everything is fine .
Thank you for your input.

Help - Huawei data management services is eating my battery

Hello,
So the day s10+ comes out is the day this freaky huawei software started to act funny!
Somehow I went down from 8+ SOT to less than 4, on the second charge I checked the battery usage and WOW! An app called huawei data management services is just running in the background and eating as much as a heavy game like future fight from my battery
What is this?? Anyone faced this issue? Is there a fix or huawei is just not happy with how much they frustrate us with the sh!ty EMUI and Decided to give us another present to make our choice much worse?
It's part of the android system process, what you could try is clearing the cache regularly I have done this before and I see a huge difference.
You can also try disabling the powergenie application There's a thread in here on how to do it.
If I don't clean up my cache I get 11 minutes before dropping to 99%
If I clean the cache I can get up to 43 minutes before dropping to 99%
Android system processes
Clearing cache didn't help
The problem still there. Anyone can help?
Yeah something isn't right now, put my phone down at 96% on the table, picked up 4 hours later it's at 85%
Android system & Kernel the two biggest issues over 6% Everything else had less than 1% to 0% used.

Someone who reported the same problem on his P20 Pro said restoring his phone to factory settings fixed it.
But if it's caused by corrupted system data you would need to set up your phone as new rather than restore from a backup (including a Google Cloud Backup) because the backup could restore the system data that is causing your problem.
I think Huawei Data Management Services is similar to Google Play Services and that apps (including downloaded third party apps) use the process to sync data so a misbehaving app could cause the issue without showing up in the battery monitor as causing drain.
You could also try turning off Huawei Share to verify that it isn't causing your problem.
What is annoying is battery/app launch 3 dots.... launch record's
I see apps being launched by other applications that I haven't even used in the last few hours, even when I have set secondary launch off for those apps.
Apps are also being launched when launch on Start up is deactivated.
Mate 20 pro battery drain
Help! My Mate 20 Pro is a battery draining monster. Huawei Data Management is taking over 30% of my consumption. I've tried factory data reset twice, but no improvement. Please help!
Clearing cache is not going to fix anything. Hasn't since probably Gingerbread.
In fact it just chews more resources to rebuild that cache.
I got this issue two update ago. Now on .243. I did a factory reset and set up my phone from scratch. No restores from Google drive or Huawei phone clone. The issue is gone since. Battery as good as ever.
Hello,
I have the same issue. Any way to solve it without restore ?
Thanks
Use Assistant for Android to kill the process at startup
Hi,
You can install Assistant for Android
to kill the process at startup. Open the app, select startup manager, go to system processes and select Huawei data manager. Restart and voila.

Had the same issue after 9.1 update. Before no drain was presented. Now huawei data management services have got 30% of total battery cinsumptiin.
What i have done so far just trying to fix the issue :
1. Re install update via erecovery, 2 times
2. Hard reset. Once with restoring from huawei backup, next time almsot from the scratch
3. Deleted all photos/videos from the device (more than 15k files)
4. Uninstall huawei backup
5. Clear cash in recovery mode
No results at all!! This fu***g huawei data management services come again and again! I have to charge the Phone by 14- 15 am, when it droppes down to 25-30% of battery with 1.5 - 2 SOT only...
This just drives me crazy! No idea what to do next!
Ps
Was watching note 10 presentation by Samsung tonight... Seems to be good, note plus has 4300 mah battery... Start to think...
Same thing here.

Hi, seems i did found this little bastard. Not sute it makes me happy, but ready to share :
So far in my case huawei data management services starts eating battery just after i switch on calendar sync with my work office 365 account. And it not depends on which calendar apps i am using on device. I tried it with huawei built in calendar app, with Google calendar and with Business calendar pro. As soon as i turn on sync with work calendar account heawei data services starts eating the batt. Once calendar sync being turned off huawei data services stops..
Other interesting thing is it just about calendar sync, email sync with same account not triggering batt drain. So i suppose that huawei broke sometging in 9.1 in cal sync mechanizm, sync before it works without problem. Will try to send notice to them
Hope it helps. Try to stop cal sync if you have one.
Regards
Sergey
I had the same problem - and for me that cal sync fix (@sergey1974x) solved it. Thank you so much!

Thanks, Sergey! Do you mean automatic synchronization option? I see that one under Users & Accounts / Google / Calendar. It seems helpful, but then a Google calendar does not function. I suspect maybe a stock app is glitchy. Have you tried to remove an access to calendar for the stock app and keep it only for a Google app?
Hi all,
I had the same issue as described by others here under 9.1.0.310. Did factory reset and clean setup but the issue was back after a couple of hours.
As I also have a spare Pixel 3xl I finally decided to remove one of the 2 SIM cards from the Mate to put it in the Pixel. I subsequently noticed that the power consumption of the mate was back to normal. Can't even see Huawei data management any more in the battery stats whereas before it was in 1st position with over 25%.
I did some more testing and it turns out that for me it was the "Dual 4G/LTE SIM card" and "swap LTE connection during calls" sliders in the SIM management menu (free translation of the menu names as I run French UI).
I'm now back to normal consumption with 2 SIM cards in the device but above sliders set to off and data on SIM 1 only.

Hi, thats defenitely not an app issue. I tried several apps like native Huawei calendar, Google and business pro calendar. As soon as i am turning on sync with my work exchange or office 365 account - Huawei data management services starts eating the bat. Once sync turned off - Huawei data management stops. And its only about exchange accout, once Gmail account cal is syncing no problem at all.
I rolled back to 9.0 - issue dissaoered, all was good for 2 days.. . But then Phone self - installed 9.1 overnight. Same **** today so its really 9.1 issue. Hope they will fix next versions...

STF-L09 - Android 9, EMUI 9.1.0 - All widgets suddenly stuck

Hi all,
I hope someone is still around here...
In the past weeks I started to have a very annoying issue with my phone, hopefully someone can help.
I have a Honor9, with Android 9, EMUI 9.1.0, all stock, no root, no custom image, nothing.
Since a couple of weeks, all widgets are stuck. They work for a few hours after rebooting the phone, but after that, they stop updating and some of them is not responding at all.
Transparent clock updates time and day, but weather is not updated. Calendar is not responding and not updated. Even the settings widget is not updating the icons any more. All other widgets are stuck at the last update or on a "updating". I have tried to stop the applications but they don't restart.
I can't recall any particular update before the issue started, unless the automatic update of applications update from google store. I have tried also to reinstall a couple of widgets but they don't work -what is interesting is that they don't work straight away even after reinstalling, meaning that something in the system is triggered and keeps them blocked. Also, adding new widgets once the issue is present doesn't work, they don't show up on the screen, but they appear all together next time the phone reboots, supporting the idea that something in the system is keeping all widgets locked.
It doesn't look like the usual battery saving settings, all widgets were fine and I can't see anything different in the power saving settings.
Before I wipe out the phone and restart from scratch, does anyone has any idea of what I could try?
Thanks!

Any known/recent issues with battery drain?

Hi, my Mate 20 Pro is getting rubbish battery life from 2 or 3 weeks ago. Seems way worst since last week. It will go from 100% to near 15% in half a day.
I didn't notice any system update and I haven't done any change to it. Battery app shows the apps I'll be using most that day but I don't think they match such a dramatic change from what it used to be just a month or so ago. I don't game and most "intensely used" apps are the Opera browser and Instagram (that will be used for 30 minutes).
I've reset the phone and done a factory reset also. The behaviour persists unchanged.
Instagram runs like google palay services iwhile in the background so freeze(all social media apps except whatsapp) it when not using it, if not that its time to get a battery replacement.
disable bloatware apps you never use and check your running services(search *running* in settings, its usually in the developer options area"
