Hi, I have a few questions regarding various wakelocks that I hope somebody will be able to advise on. Whether they are normal or not Im not sure.
I'm in the UK, my phone is a standard GS3, ie not routed or anything. I had battery life problems but have used Better Battery Stats and GSAM Battery Monitor and found the problem so now all is well and the battery is lasting exceptionally well indeed.
Whilst spending hours finding the original battery drain problem and removing the rogue apps, I came across these and just wondered; are they normal, is there anything I can do to improve them?
1) Android system - Seems to be causing quite a lot of wake locks, particularly running a lot are the Accelerometer, gyroscope & light. What exactly are they, and is it normal for them to be running a lot and cause wakelocks?
2) Facebook - I have turned sync frequency and notifications to 'Never' within the app, and set to not sync contacts, yet its still always in my list of running applications and causing wakelocks. Why? Is that normal, and what can I do to stop it? I only want it to turn on and refresh when I use it (very rarely) - which is what I have set it to. But it keeps running and starting itself even after I force stop it.
Thanks, John
Anybody able to advise? Particularly point 1) above.

1) Can you post here the "Dump" file from BetterBatteryStats ? You can generate it with BBS > Options > Dump to file
2) Facebook is known to drain battery with background daemon and services. Try using another Facebook'apps even if it's not the genuine one.
Isnt' cross-posting generally not allowed?
Thanks lelinuxien52, yes I will do that.
Szadzik, what do you mean by cross-posting?

Ahh just googled it, yes sorry I didn't realise.
Hello everyone,
Today I noticed that my Galaxy S3 had huge battery drain.So I used GSAM battery from playstore in order to find out which app drains my battery and CPU Spy PLUS to check deep sleep time. Unfortunately I could not find anything helpful. BUT I noticed that every time I unclok my screen, juice defender icon disappears and appears again.So I checked its full log and I found out some errors. I use Android Revolution HD v18+Stock/Perseus Kernel v30.1+JB Domination Theme v1.5.5.Screenshot is attached.Any help would be appreciated.
JD drains battery well known multiple posts on the subject .

Try uninstalling and reinstall
I have tried install/uninstall already but nothing happened.I have also searched but I could not find the same error..

Hello friends,
I'm using Xperia Go with stock JB version(6.2.A.1.100). The battery life of this stock rom is way too much annoying with 3G on. Example: Last night, charge was up to 82% & at morning it came down to 25%. Now think what if i use data traffic at day
I want a custom JB rom for Xperia Go with a good battery life with 3G on for some hours(which may last one day) & of course with a good ram where less important system apps are not preloaded & as much as low bug possible.
Well! The main problem is I'm not expert in these processes. So if anyone gives me a nice guideline, i will be very grateful
IMPORTANT: MY PHONE HAS LOCKED BOOTLOADER,I saw many people install CWM in their stock JB with locked bootloader & then convert into custom JB rom. I want to use that process, because I don't want to downgrade into ICS as I'm not an expert to do many things right
Seems that i want everything
My Phone: Xperia Go rooted with doomlord kit version 14
Build number: 6.2.A.1.100
Kernel version: 3.0.8+ (I think its the stock kernel)
My pc operating system: Windows 8
One question: When I will install CWM in my xperia before installing custom rom, will I loose every data & does unlocking bootloader wipe data?
@Pias94
In principle, unlockicking bootloader does not wipe any data, however I have seen a few posts that claimed it did.
Rooting should not wipe data waht so ever.
With that said, always backup your phone before making any changes. In any case data on internal storage will not be wiped. only data on device memory (contacts, sms, etc.)
Now to the real issue.
I tend to believe your problem is not the ROM itself, I use stock JB on my XP with decent baterry life.
First check your battery stats to see what takes most of it (no rom will change your screen battery consumption).
Second install Wakelock Detector and see which apps cause wakelocks, especialy screen wakelocks..
Rooting your device should be sufficient to let you tune it for good battery life and performance.
I see DooMLoRD Easy Rooting Toolkit is compatible with your device and firmware version and it is indeed easy rooting toolkit
Well, there are plenty of JB rom's you could try it all depends on you taste.
Regarding battery life, try checking if any apps run in the background.
You can use greenify too, it's an app that hibernates apps so that they don't run all the time
or they don't run on their own and just end up wasting resources and battery.
You could also try different kernels that have different governors.
Underclocking your device below the average helps too, by allot during the long run actually.
Look around the forums, just beyond the first page, sometimes you can find some really neat stuff you might like

My friend,
I uploaded some screenshots. The first two photos, i uploaded the app use right after charging my mobile & in the next pair of photos are next mornings'. In between i just make a call for 10 min. Nothing else. Now say what should I do?
btw, bt the wake lock detector, i found just facebook,messenger & whatsapp which might drain some extra battery.

Are facebook,messenger & whatsapp always on in stamina prefs?
I have whatsapp, viber. facebook, tahoo messenger, and talk, set to always on in stamina prefs and I only get about 1% per hour standby drain.
Is your movile data on or are you using wifi?
I can see in battery stats the phone is awake most of the time which it' shouldn't be in standby.
Below my stats for today, you can see there very little drain for standby time. I had 5 minutes calls and a bit of data on time, and still only about 35% drain for 12, while you had 40% drain for standby time only, this need to be fixed.
I must note though I have the 98screenstate_script that cap CPU speed when screen is off.
As I said, can't change screen on drain, you can set adaptive brightness or manually low to save some juice, not much though.
We need a bit more detail to know what cause drain.
In WakelockDetector check :"statistics since unplug" in prefs.
Charge battery full, no calls or nothing till next morning, or at least a few hours with no calls or screen on, take screen shots for all 3 wakelocks (screen, cpu and wakeup triggers, battery stats + graph + screen on time.
CPU Spy plus may also help if you install it, reset timers just before you unplug the charger, and take screen shot in the morning.
Hello,
I tried to use two thing.
1."First You Setting--->APPS--->All Tab---->ECO Mode Controller (Click Clear Data and Force Stop)
Then Again you Go Setting--->APPS--->All TAP---Setting.apk (Click Clear Data and Force Stop)
Charge Your Mobile 4 to 5Hours
After 4-5 Hours While Charging That Time You Click Vol Up+Power Button( after 3 times Vibrate)
Remove Your Charger and Again Plugin Your Mobile The Sony Logo With Comes And Charging Logo has been Shown
Then Power On Your Mobile While Charging
Then Go Setting--->Power Management TURN ON BATTERY STAMINA MODE"
After that I saw that charge duration came from 10 Hour to 3 day. But i think still charge is leeching, but a little bit slow.
2. I added whatsapp, facebook, messenger & one other app(360 mobile security) to the stamina prefs as u said.
But though charge leeched from 100% to 64%.
I must say a little improvement. Because is usually go down below 50 sometimes.
My mobile data is 24/7 on.
I've added the screenshots you want.
Note: Just one call came up that time. I couldn't receive though
Mobile data can cause some drain, but I think all traffic goes through wifi if wifi is available, and stamina mode supposed to turns it off when in deep sleep.
Can't make definitive conclusion, but I don't like this messenger, 490 times wakelocks. Why do you need it anyway, you can chat with facebook itself. Is the messenger in stamina active apps?
The active apps that require network can only work if wifi is connected, which apps you have there?
CPU stats look reasonable with 86% at deep sleep, and only 5% above 200MGHz.
Are you rooted, we can try and even lower that if you are.
Force stop the messanger for one day and see how it goes.
The see if turning off mobile data make a change, but don;t do both things at once so we can indentify which cause the drain, or cause most of it.
EDIT: I'll install the messenger on my phone and see if there's a change.

Yes,the messenger is added in stamina mode. The messenger app is so cool you know & easy to use
I have facebook, whatsapp, messenger, 360 mobile security & play services are in stamina mode.
Yes,the phone is rooted. But i don't know how to make the system lower.
Ok, I will stop the messenger while again full charging my phone.
You should try messenger
Thanks1

The attached flashable zip adds init.d support and install the S98screenstate_scaling_mini, a modified version of S98screenstate_scaling.
This script caps CPU frequency and twaek CPU governor parameters. Help saving some battery when screen is off.
If you experiance problems delete the file from /etc/init.d and reboot.

Yes it works, I have used it before but you wil have to set the conditions at parameters yourself, and for some reason not all parameters changed as I wanted them too, but it may be governor issue rather than the app.
I rather a simple script doint it instead.
All yuu need is to flash it in recovery.

Yes I have installed it, but only had 53 alarm wakeups., facebook is on top with 76.
I had an excess drain today.... 15% for 10 hours standby normally Google+ won't wake so much but today its on top of CPU wakelocks with over 1 minute, second is facebook with half a minute, but I think it's an app I made that caused soe of it.
Hello!
I know its a common problem for everyone. But I think my problem is quite a bit more. It drains fast even if I don't use my phone. One thing is my 3G is on 24/7. But I saw people with some other roms who open the data traffic for 24/7, bt still get 1.5 days service from battery.
My Xperia Go really drains so fast.I uploaded some screenshots. The first two photos, i uploaded the app use right after charging my mobile & in the next pair of photos are next mornings'. In between i just make a call for 10 min. Nothing else. Now say what should I do?
btw, i found just non-system apps like facebook,messenger & whatsapp which might drain some extra battery. Otherwise I have no other major apps non-system apps. I JUST WANT TO RUN MY XPERIA GO FOR AT LEAST ONE DAY WITH A FULL CHARGE
My Phone: Xperia Go rooted with doomlord kit version 14
Build number: 6.2.A.1.100
Kernel version: 3.0.8+ (I think its the stock kernel)
My pc operating system: Windows 8
Is there any better rom for me with pretty much less bugs?
Note: Give me an option without unlocking the bootloader plz
Well u should downgrade to gingerbread to see if it the battery problem or software problem

Thanks friend. But I would like stuck with any rom of JB. So if u may help me about that, I will be very happy ^_^
I tried BeAnZ/Google™ BeAnZ Lite 2014/01/01 and my battery life has improved considerably. But again I never had this bad battery. Maybe its a hardware issue ?
Battery drains super fast
Hi Guys even i have flashed with Doomlord for SU access and I am also seeing the same issue..
Hi Pias94....!!
Do u still have the problem or did u find a solution for the battery drain
Did u try the new ROM that was suggested. Please Help ASAP

I did follow some steps:
Step 1:
1. First You go Settings--->APPS--->All Tab---->ECO Mode Controller/ Extended battery mode (Click Clear Data and Force Stop)
2. Then Again you Go Settings--->APPS--->All Tab---Setting.apk (Click Clear Data and Force Stop)
3. Charge Your Mobile 4 to 5Hours
4. After 4-5 Hours While Charging That Time You Click Vol Up+Power Button( after 3 times Vibrate)
5. Remove Your Charger and Again Plugin Your Mobile The Sony Logo With Comes And Charging Logo has been Shown
6. Then Power On Your Mobile While Charging
7. Then Go Setting--->Power Management TURN ON BATTERY STAMINA MODE.
8. Then see the battery state.
Step 2:
As ur phone is rooted like me, install Greenify app & add those app works in background even if u don't use the phone. May be Greenify will stop them.
Step 3:
In power mangement, press the stamina mode & exactly add apps like which u did in grennify. In my case Facebook, Facebook Messneger & Whatsapp were the most dangerous app. So i added those.
Step 4:
Use app2sd card software & transfer app from phone memory to sd card. It mau help a liitle.
after these steps i get some little improvement
Note: There's always some bug in other roms. That's why i didn't install any
hey thanks for replying ...
I was using ALL THE PROCEDURES THAT U ALREADY MENTIONED...
BUT I THINK ITS A BATTERY ISSUE...I HAVE BEEN USING IT SINCE ONE AND HALF YEAR OR SO..
EVEN SOME BATTERY APPS SHOW THAT IT CAN SAVE ONLY BATTERY WHICH LONGS FOR 1HR OR SO WHERE IT IS SUPPOSED TO SAVE FOR A 5 HR TALK TIME
U CAN USE " No Bloat Free" to disable system apps if u dont want to use...:cyclops:
I am gonna replace the battery i guess..
Sony ericsson is not providing a battery replacement , they are asking for warranty and all which is expired in my case..
Anyways Thank YOu..
Well try factory format its work for me
also always charge your fon atleast more than 55%

I'm having trouble with the same phone but different rom. I'm running CM11 on my GO and battery lasts about 7-8 hours. This is with some maps usage, 10 minute calls, 10 viber messages and some surfing using Firefox. I've greenified everything including Viber & Whatsapp. I also got Juicedefender turning 3g off when screen is off and turning it on briefly every 15 minutes. Clean master is also running in the background because I have to keep clearing ram.
Edit: oh, and I got No frills cpu control set to 200/800mhz Interactive/Noop
Going back to stock rom might help but then Viber "effs" things up and dialer starts lagging.
Any other tips? This piece of crap phone has been nothing but trouble since the beginning.

It's the screen that drains most of it, how long has it been on?
And it is weird because it doesn't show to be awake when screen is on which usually is the other way (awake with screen off).
Check CM thread to see if it's a known/fixed bug.
I updated to the latest CM11 and things are a bit better now... I'm getting about one days use. Which still isn't much considering most of the apps are greenified. Anyway.....
edit: and I've tried to keep the screen brightness at constant ~25-30%.
/!\FOUND ONE FIX FOR SCREEN OFF BATTERY DRAIN - BOTTOM OF THE POST/!\
Hello, and thank you for reading my thread.
1. Introducing of me and my problem
I am the proud owner of a SGS3, but I'm not english so excuse my poor level of speaking. Hope you can understand me. My problem may seem quite familar, but after hours of reading I still did not find anyone with the same problem than me (I read on german, french and english - especially XDA - forums without any actual answer). Like I allready said I have a SGS3 but I had a SGS2 and a Note 1 before. Being a "Flash-addict", and tired of TouchWizz, I flashed a lot of roms, and of course CM. And here is the problem : on every CM installation I have I have terrible battery issues. Here you may think "Pfff... another n00b who didn't read the fu***** manual. (RTFM -- joke -- understood ?) So let's introduce part II :
2. My config'
If my problem is in a new thread and not in a general "Problem" thread, it is because it seems very 'unique' to me. I have :
- GPS totally off (localisation OFF in settings)
- WiFi constant refreshing OFF too
- NFC and AndoBeam OFF even if I read it has no impact on battery life
- I ALWAYS enter multi-tasking and close all apps
- WiFi and Data OFF (Data always OFF because I only have 50MB of mobile internet / month (Viva la france !) - WiFi only ON at home )
- Brightness on AUTO
- CPU governor on 'PEGASUSQ' or 'POWERSAVE' depending on usage
- Talking about usage :
- SMS and Facebook
- Apollo (sorry but I can't live without a7x or black sabbath)
- Bash (u know that weird app that eats your time)
- Internet via Chrome or default browser (at home)
- That's all (+ some games at home)
3. What I have tried
On SGS2 :
- Buying a new battery (talking about battery do you know how do be 1000000% sure you have an original battery ? Some people say about the 'Made in Taiwan / Made in Korea" etc... but I have friends why an original SGS4 w/ battery made in Korean and some w/ battery made in Japan...)
On GN :
- Buying a new battery
On SGS3 (my current one, as you may guess)
- I read it is better not to use Titanium Backup so I tried without (sooooooo long restoring all apps from Play Store)
- I read extSDcard can cause problems so I put it away - do you know where you can unmount extSDcard in CM settings ? I know this option exists in TouchWizz based roms.
- I tried all the placebo solutions like wiping battery stats and so on...
- I installed Boefla (sorry for misspeling) Kernel and used an "Extreme Battery Yank" presset.
- Always upgrading to last CM Nightly (and re-flashing Boeffla Kernel)
- Flashing Mods for battery life
- See last part for SCREEN OFF fix !!!
4. Extra Notes :
- I have no battery issues on Stock ROMs and most of Sammy based roms
- I use a 1A battery charger, Samsung Official or very well done Chinese Export
- I have an extBattery with 2A charging possibility if needed.
- I really enjoy CM11 and really wanted to use it as daily-usage ROM (and not another KK rom like SuperNexus)
- My phone heats a little bit more than on Sammy Roms
- Current Widget says my battery status is Good (not dammaged battery)
- Oh and I have the stock 2100 mAh Battery
Best stats reached : ~5 % in one night (pretty good for me) and 3% in 30 minutes video with Wifi on, samsung headsets, AUTO brightness, PowerSaving governor and synchronisation and all the stuff off.
When playing games like "Worms 2 Armaggedon" or just watching videos on YouTube in HQ by charging the phone with my 1A charger, the battery level does not move (+1 % per 40 minutes)
Thank you for reading my thread and being so awesome in modding our devices !
Edited : Solutions found
Applied this solution (from Reddit) :
After much experimentation, I realized that it is not GP services app itself that is causing the wakelocks, it's the google search app pinging the GP services app for location all the time! Especially now with the Google now launcher, google search app is always or almost always active. This setup seem to create excessive wakelocks for NlPCollectorWakeLock from the google search app (Google Now), which in turn shows up as GP services wakelocks.
The solution is to take away 2 permissions: the Google search app permissions to keep the device awake, and access location. This gets rid of the wakelocks, and still appears to keep google now etc. functional. You can do this using App Ops from the play store (needs root), or if you are on custom ROMs, through "App Privacy" menu setting. Additionally you could also turn off location history and reporting, to be on the safe side. Google Now still works, but now without the wakelocks!

another method for same fix is this one :
I know a great fix, if this can get to the top it will help a lot of people. It requires the Xposed framework and the module Wakelock Terminator. The free version lets you block 1 app, and that's all we need. Open up Wakelock Terminator, choose to block Google Play services, and filter it with the following: NlpCollectorWakeLock NlpWakeLock CheckinService NetworkLocationLocator

Here is an additional fix (thanks to ivek81cro)
Ok, i did what post said and it didn't help, then i went into Privacy guard and set deny for Keep awake for Android system. Phone then cooled down and battery drain stopped. I didn't notice that anything else changed on phone (i think i didn't messed up anything with that). Today i returned permissions to default and all is ok now, no bat. drain or heating up.

I will upload images and links as soon as I am authorized
After this "fix", I had my phone SCREEN OFF two hours without loosing any percentage, with GSM on, WiFi, BT and NFC off. (just like during night)
Still looking for solutions for SCREEN ON, will tell you !
I also have the battery problems. No matter what I do it still drains fast. When I use original 1amp charger and do something on phone my battery actually dies while charging... No idea on what's going on

I have same issue since yesterday, i9305, CM-11-20140531-nightly, com.android.systemui takes allmost 50%+ of battery and drains it 5%/h when in "sleep mode", testing solutions posted above, will tell you if it worked. Thanks
Ok, i did what post said and it didn't help, then i went into Privacy guard and set deny for Keep awake for Android system. Phone then cooled down and battery drain stopped. I didn't notice that anything else changed on phone (i think i didn't messed up anything with that). Today i returned permissions to default and all is ok now, no bat. drain or heating up.

battery drain cm11
Try this...
Developer options enabled
Settings...performance...CPU frequency...minimum...make sure its set to lowest...tick apply on boot box.
After clean install mine was set to 2 knotches from max...set to 300 and immediately fixed all problems with battery drain.
NOTE III
SPRINT

The below link shows the tip mentioned above about the privacy guard.
