Deep sleep problem

Hello world,
I just noticed this disturbing issue. I lost about 16% battery in one night. When I looked at battery state I noticed alot of tiny little wake moments during the night.
What kind of application can cause this? Or are there any known bugged apps that cause this?
Wakker is dutch for Wake

. THE Galaxy Notes when goes into standby (screen off) should go into deep sleep mode is a mode that allows you to keep to a minimum processor frequency to conserve the battery.

And that's it. The Notes should regularly go into deep sleep after doing this guide. To check everything just to keep notes on standby for about ten minutes and see if The candidates and the percentage of deep sleep increases.

Hi
Even I face this battery issue....it is severe in my case. I hardly get 14 HRS of battery life even after about 30 charging cycles
I've installed CPU spy, I found that the CPU stays in 200Mhz, for testing purpose I had kept my cell phone untouched in flight mode for about 12hrs but still I lost more 50% of battery.
I had tested the battery by completely charging it, it just drains before my eyes . . .
I don't know if this is deep sleep issue. please help me.

1. Flash and test different kernels in case of battery drain. Some are easier on your battery than the others. 2. Use Titanium Backup to freeze or uninstall crapware. This list is a useful guide as to what can/can't be removed from your system: https://spreadsheets.google.com/spr...SENVeXlqUm5vV0E&single=true&gid=0&output=html 3. Set Brightness to low value, disable autobrightness 4. Disable or scale down vibration and haptic feedback 5. Automatic syncing of your accounts is battery consuming. Sync manually if you can 6. Set screen timeout to 15 seconds 7. Disable fast dormancy (dial *#9900# and do it from there) 8. Don't keep your WiFi/Packet Data on all the time. However, if you must have WiFi on the second you wake up your phone, go to Settings/Wireless and Network/Wi-Fi settings - once in Wi-Fi Settings, hit the menu button (the bottom left one), choose Advanced/Wi-Fi sleep policy/When Screen Turned Off. This way your connection will toggle on/off depending on your screen on/of state 9. Disable location services via wireless networks - are you travelling that fast that you need those? 10. GPS is heavy on the battery, therefore use it sparingly
And don't use Juice or any other battery 'defenders': they keep running in the background and consume your juice by trying to save it. Not to mention other problems they can (and often do) create.
Hope this helps.

Download BetterBatteryStats and look for wakelocks (partial and kernel). Google them if you don't know what they do. Then uninstall them or fix them somehow.

Am happy to say that the deep sleep issue haS been resolved.
I downloaded better battery stats, found that the process l2_hsic was stopping my phone from going to deep sleep mode. I tweaked the wifi settings and the battery life increased exponentially.
Thanks better battery stats

What do you mean "tweaked the wifi settings"?

My galaxy note 2 battery is draining fast and the "android os" is at about 65% at end of day and now my battery last about 10 hours. I was trying to follow your instructions above but got lost trying to find the settings to remove some tones you mentioned. Which tones are you speaking of.
Thanks...

Note 2? Wrong forum..However, to answer your question, he is talking about the tones under Settings> Sound> System.

[Q] Airplane Mode turning on by itself after phone is shut down for a while

Been trying to find another thread with this issue, but others seem to have a problem where the airplane mode turns itself on while the phone is already on - not the same problem I have.
So right now, I'm using my HTC DZ while prepping my O2X for a potential sale unless the SU660 sources drop in time.
For about 3 weeks my O2X was powered off and kept away.
I decided to turn it on for some testing and put my SIM card inside. When I booted up the phone, the airplane mode was stuck on. I tried to toggle it off, and it didn't go off after 5 seconds, so I tried rebooting. No dice.
Then I tried booting up the O2X without a SIM inside - the airplane mode showed as being off. So I put back the SIM, and booted it up - airplane mode turned itself on again!
Finally, I was able to turn off the airplane mode by going to the Settings-> Wireless and Networks screen, and staring at the screen for about 90 seconds while the "Turning off..." message took its own sweet time. If I left this screen, or put the phone back to sleep, while the airplane mode was trying to turn off, then it would never turn off. It also would not turn off if I tried to use a widget, or if I tried using the toggle from the menu that appears from holding down the power button.
Now, what's scary is that this is not an isolated case.
After restoring network functionality, I decided try manually turning on the airplane mode. It turned on instantly. When I tried to turn it off, the airplane mode again took roughly 90 seconds to turn off - and I had to leave it in the settings screen to do so.
Later on, I powered off the O2X, left it for about 3 hours, and then powered it on with the SIM inside. Again, the airplane mode turned itself on - and took forever to turn off.
In all test cases, the battery was at least 70% full. This can't be proper behavior, since my considerably less powerful DZ is able to turn off airplane mode in less than 5 seconds.
Anyone else have such a problem? I am using CM7.2 stable with the Etana kernel if that helps. I also used GetRIL and APN Manager when I first got the phone to ensure baseband and RIL matched.

Hmm, I tried this after leaving the phone off for about 1 hour and it managed to boot without turning on airplane mode. Seems to work for now.
Thanks for the heads-up. Hope I wasn't just lucky. I'll be testing it again overnight to be sure

Seven hours later - your solution holds up. Also, manually toggling the airplane mode on and off now takes a few seconds at most, like it should be

[Q] Screen Dims on low battery even when Power saver is turned off.

Hi,
My Screen Dims on low battery, even when Power saver is turned off. This behaviour shows since update to 4.1.
The integrated Power Saver is set to :
Turn Power saver on : at 50% battery level
Brightness : 50% Brigtness
Powersaver : OFF
But still when 5% Battery is reached, the screen goes totally dark.
So dark I cannot read it most of the time. I have to use my hand to cover for shadow, set the brightness up, and then I can use my phone again. This makes toe phone unusable when battery is low.
I hate this behaviour and would like to disable this.
How do I disable it ?
As mentioned, this was not the case with Android 4.0.3 (stock, rooted), it happens since I updated to 4.1.2 (stock, rooted)
The intuitive place to look ws the power saver, but those settings seem not to change anything.
I have searched the net and these forums, but could not find a place where to correct this settings.
I would like the screen to remain it's last setting, not dim at all.
Please help.

You didn't set the brightness to auto, did you? Because this is maybe the cause of dimming. I'm not sure but that's my first thought.

Nope, tried both, auto and non-auto, in both cases when the 5% battery warning comes, screen is set to lowest possible level automatically, even in bright sunlight outside. In winter maybe, but in summer it suxx. Some automatic adjustment according to ambient light -might- be ok, but I would prefer that the backlight level is not changed at all.

Are you on stock? Or any custom rom?
I think you can maybe change this setting in build.prop or smth similar,
but I'm not that good when it comes to this.
Sent from my LG-P880

As I said in the first post, I use stock rom.
I have now looked through build.prop file. There is a " #Backlight " section, in there is some " ro.lge.lcd_default_brightness=146 " entry. I will change it and see what happens when I hit 5% battery. But since there is no other setting (like when battery below 5%) this does not look very promising..
Does your P880 show the same behaviour ?

It actually did the same when I was on stock (now I'm on WerewolfJB) but it didn't bother me back then (almost never got my phone below 5% battery.
And because I'm not on stock I can not look for the right line in build.prop or other system config files.

So there is no "OFF" in the powersaver, it defaults to some weird settings when switched "OFF" ?
I will try that too.

^works!
but for me after i lock the screen and un-lock im back at screen min, i had to re-open rootdim each time and set it. even the "lock" feature doesnt seem to overthrow the system 5% batt life force dim. annoying but at least rootdim works, even if i do have to open it each time

disable low battery dim

thanks the root dim it does work, you have no idea how long i search for this.Funny thing i came across this root app like 5 or 6 times and didn't think it would work cause i have lux dim the other root app and that one does bring the display back to 100 percent bright who would thought that the fix was this simple and yes like you say every time you lock the device it brings you back to dim mode but if you open the app and bring the slider all the way up it stays like that at 100 brightness, done that on my rooted galaxy s4 from cricket it works yey.

[Q] auto airplane mode

Hi..
is there a way to automate airplane mode on our watch between 9pm until 6am ?

Are you wanting your phone to be airplane mode or just your watch?

I use Sony Smart Connect for my phone. No idea if it could handle an action on the watch...

just my watch ... the idea is to conserve battery usage at night ..

You could use tasker like i have to switch the screen to off(on the watch) and then switch Bluetooth of from the time you require until a set time in the morning that will turn Bluetooth back on and screen back to always on.

I've consider that .. but although turning-off bluetooth in the phone will stop notification, it'll actually drain the watch because it'll keep trying to connect to the phone ..

Don't bother. You won't gain mych by enabling Airplane mode. What drains battery most is the display (of course depending heavily on your watchface - my ambient mode has just 2 lines of very thin and small text, and it drains next to nothing).
I think what you're looking for is the Cinema mode - just tap the crown twice before going to bed, and twice after you wake up.
Sadly, this mode is incompatible with alarms (on watch) since they are completely silenced as well (including vibrations), but if you use alarm on the phone then you're fine.
... Or you could just disable ambient mode every night, but that's inconvenient.

the Power saving mode not working?

I think the power saver mode on my p10 is quite not working now but for past coupke of days its fine because as far as i know whenever i on the power saver mode the brightness would go slight dim and theres an indicator on the notification but right now within minutes of usage the brightness would go back to normal like as if the power mode was turned off, thats why every now and then i would go to settings and turn on off and on the power saver mode. Howwould i know if the power saver mode is turned on and working? Do i need to reset my phone? , clear cache? Thanks
