Try installing wake my android pro app
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.gejos.android.wakemyandroidpro&hl=en
it solves my SOD problem, I'm not a dev/ someone with technical analysis as to explain how this app solves the problem, it just works on me,
give it a try, I'm using Midnote 2.0
I was very frustrated with SOD on ICS Leaks until I discovered this app.
hope it helps
SOD happens when the phone enters deep sleep and it cannot wake up from it. This app works because it "wakes" the phone every few minutes preventing it from entering deep sleep for very long if at all

Now tells us about the battery performance after installed this app.Its not a good thing to wake up the phone every minute for your battery

Don't know if it's a known problem, I'm with Miui milestine since 19.11 ver.
at first have a battery issue, had a little research and find out how to check if phone sleeps when locked. from then and on, I noticed phone sometimes won't go to sleep (after discconecting from charger, after playing with 3g, WIFI, GPS on/off)
soultion from me right now is playing with 3g, WIFI, GPS on/off,
when phones goes to sleeps battery is good, but I had enough turning 3g off check battery stats. lock the phone, open it, check again etc..
Does anyone know about the problem?
Soultion?
I'm running currently MIUI 31.12 on GOT 2.2.1 kernel (ITALY_WIND)
On these unofficial ROMs, batt life is always an issue. I'm using GOT 2.2.1 and have to turn off data and wifi if I want my charge to last over 24 hrs.

So I'm guessing its unofficial rom problem?
Hoping for official rom soon...

I’m creating this thread to help anyone who’s been affected with SOD (Sleep of Death). Here’s a brief history of what I’ve tried so far:
- I was running stock 2.2 for about a year, had lag, choppiness, etc.. but never a SOD
- Flashed CM7.1 2 weeks ago (stock kernel), phone is not amazingly fast but experiencing SODs every few days.
- Created a Tasker profile to wake the phone every 1 hour, (wait 5 seconds command), no SOD for a week
- This morning, got a SOD again.. missed my alarm and was late for work
- All SODs happen at night while charging.
- Today I downloaded ‘Wake my Android Pro’, supposedly it send a wakelock every 29 minutes and prevents the phone from entering deep sleep.
My next step if this fails and I get another SOD:
- Set CPU min clock to 350 (read that this doesn't help but will try anyway)
- Activate SoftLocker to prevent the phone from ever going to sleep, this is the last resort since it will affect my battery life (wish there was a Tasker plugin to toggle the settings so I can enable it only when charging)
Does anyone know how long after turning off the screen does the phone go into deep sleep (versus regular sleep)?

I'm also using CM7 (nightly #146) with neo kernel..I only have had SOD once (while using stock kernel IIRC). Now I'm booting every evening before going to bed and haven't noticed any problems (knocking the wood..).
Btw, as you came from froyo did you flash GB before going to CM7? Or at least GB bootloaders prior flashing?
Can't really say any solution to your problems since these sods are quite hard to catch..logcat, dmesg, etc are our friends with these kinds of problems

No, I didn't flash GB, I installed CWM bootloader and flashed CM7 from recovery (had to find a workaround to get past the e3 protection).
So far with "Wake my Android Pro" I see the screen go on and off quickly (about 1/2 a second) every 29 minutes.. too early to tell if this is helping with SODs, I'll report back regularly to update the results
Woke up today to my alarm, wohoo! Phone doesn't seem to go to sleep and battery life is fine.
charging on a PC.
Hello
Thank you for the informative thread.
I have a Galaxy S i9000 running 2.3.6, XXJW4 and CF-root, and find it frustrating not to be able to fully trust my phone to respond whenever needed, be it listening to Internet radio, using sat nav, getting Facebook notifications (yes I got them back after reinstalling Facebook and clearing Dalvik cache but I should talk about that in another thread) and of course making and receiving calls now and then.
I was wondering whether the fact that I have been hooking it up to a PC to charge it through the day (and of course plug and unplug it a few times during the day) actually made the situation worse.
So far I have been getting an SOD every two days. The 'serious' SOD would come on after a 'less serious' SOD had already happened ie the phone went into coma and then came out of it and lasted for 6 to 8 hours longer before actually falling into the SOD coma.
I stopped using the PC as a charger (using a cheapo replacement micro USB charger) and so far 3 days have gone by without a hint of an SOD. Fingers crossed. Will keep investigating.
Cheers
Hi
Im running rooted note with darky rom 3.3 and franco's test kernal with no probs up to about two days ago. Now for no reason I can see battery life has dropped drastically and some of my installed apps either do not open at all or some open then just fc. I haven"t installed any new apps in past several days. Checking batt stats it tells me the note is nearly constantly awake with with wifi awake aswell but shows no app or process including wakelocks running that can account for this. Has anyone have any idea what could be causing this and hopefuly a fix.
Thanks
Ingott

BetterBatteryStats or Badass Battery Monitor will help you pinpoint the app/process causing wakelocks and thus preventing your Note from going to sleep.
Have checked with betterbattstats and no app is running causing this problem. I have wifi set to on only when screen is on but wifi is constantly awake this is causlng batt drain I believe. Also my installed apps no longer work they fc and some dont even start. Since my last post I have reinstalled darky rom and franco kernal but still getting the same problems.

I have the same wifi problem !
I have rocket rom V23 and abyss kernel 4.2
BBS shows no wake lock and kernel wake lock but when the wifi is connected the phone wont go to sleep and its awake and drain battery !
if I turn off the wifi it will sleep and battery drain will decrease to 0.4-0.5 % per hour.
my wifi policy is set to sleep when screen is off but when i turn off screen the wifi is still awake and i can see it connected in my router lan page and also I can ping it too.
any one has any idea ?
I have found the 'sleep while screen is off' to be very poor. I now use Llama to turn the WiFi off 1 minute after the screen turns off (in case I forget something and go back), and turn it on when the screen comes on, but only if I am at the Home or Work locations. It now works exactly as I want.

thanks for your suggestion.
I just found Batteryfu very useful for NOW !!!
it has good options for wifi and mobile data, also has options for night mode, screen on, screen lock/unlock, while charging ,...
will test it for a day or 2 and will post my observations .
Thanks for all the replies..
I have found what works for me. I wiped kernal using jBroid then installed a different kernal to what I had installed rebooted a couple of times. I then wiped again using jBroid then re-installed my originall kernal again. This solved my problems. Suspect kernal got corrupted somehow then the wipe and overwrite sorted it out. Thanks to darky rom dev robbie hood for the heads up on this.

And my problem went away just by restarting my note.

hi all..
2 weeks ago I finally bought my very first android based HH, GNOTE...currently I'm running on ICS LPF Taiwan unroot, and very love it. one of my concern on this ICS, is the battery drain so much, considering it just sit on my pocket.
i have CPU Spy and BBS Installed, and found that it just Deep Sleep 48% and 200MHz 37 %. Kernel Wakelock is "multipdp" 25% Power Manager Services 21,2% and secril_fd-interface 19.25.
could you please tell me what causing this battery drain so much..?
The best thing that you could do is do a Factory Reset, but with all the bricking problems it's highly discouraged. I don't recognise the processes, but you should make sure that you deleted all the apps you never use, since one of then could be causing the problems you have.

After upgrading to German ICS, also had problems with wakelocks (phone never sleeped)
Done this (posted on XDA somewhere) and it worked:
Turn Flight Mode ON
Turn Off the Phone
Take out the battery for 30 secs
Plug battery back
Turn on the phone
Wait until all is loaded and turn off Flight Mode.
Also, always disconnect from the charger with screen ON and unlocked.
After using this 2 metods, never had a wakelock again (multipdp etc)

thanks a lot for both of you....
will try these steps.....and will comeback with the result....

i also have disabled the fast dormancy with *#9900# command, but still no effect, ...could you please or someone give another way to solve this..
Stop syncing from your gmail account.
The big one is unplugging charger with screen on.

thanks for your answer for my question...
regarding that did you mean that i have to stop receiving email on my Galaxy Note..?? for me that's really important since i bought my note to support my daily job...
is it the main cause..? if yes, i think i should buy another battery as a way out.
I also have encountered the same problem with my galaxy note after the stock ics update in India.
I have checked out the earlier posts on the same issue..
Some users had the problems of deep sleep and some others had other problems..bt as far i have been able to understand this problem...it is associated with those apps which we often use..for eg i had been using apex launcher for so long...and it used to suck my phones battery like hell also coz of the widgets and the other things that it use.
So what i did was a simple factory reset and a data wipe and didn't install the apex launcher again.
I let my phones battery drain completely and charged it till 100% and simply rebooted it and removed the battery too. And its working good now.
Those things which suckedy battery included android system and display...i could do any thing about display but i force stopped may process of android system and results are good.
One more reason for battery drain could be that when we go backs from the apps on stock ics on galaxy note..the apps do not get closed comletely like stock web browser which works in the background too..so might be other reason for so.
Don not install those apps which u dont use often coz they might work in background add unnecessorily suck ur bettery.
Try the battery pull off trick it really works for majority of users.
Force close those apps and processes which u feel unnecessory.
Those whose claim ics doesnt work smooth on their note they pls go the develpers option in settings and enable the force GPU rendering option then it will work smooth like anything...
One more thing which u may already know about galaxy note ics is that now it runs all the tablet apps on ur note! Thats pretty amazing coz u need not root it or do anything...for me it worked with the apps like...adobe idea, adobe photoshop touch and all other adobe apps and some other tablet apps..download these apps directly from 4shared..so cheers!!!
Those who are not happy with their battery pls try factory reset and battery pull off trick...it worked for me and it might work for u too my friend...
if you are entering deep sleep at all then you aren't being affected by the bug where you have to make sure your screen is on and unlocked before pulling it off the charger.
i suffered from this bug after updating to ics lpy, but since following the guide above (flight mode, power down etc.) i've had no issues.
let your phone completely discharge, then turn it back ona dn make sure it turns off again. then fully charge it. i found this increased the accuracy of the battery a little, when i did it it dropped from 10% to 1% in around 20 mins, then i was able to use the phone for almost half an hour on 1% so obviously my battery stats weren't quite right.
if you've done a factory reset, and you're sure the phone is entering deep sleep ok, just go through a couple of complete charge/discharge cycles and see if that improves things

Analyzing is tought on android.
Printscreens of kernel wakelock and partial are better.
Partial is mostly what exactly is keeping awake
Try some of the suggestions from the numerious threads, state them here whicj didnt work and describe usage a little more detail, that way we arent shooting in the dark

i still got this issue regarding multipdp and secril_fd_interface....maybe it caused by unstable network or the fast dormancy stuff...
so i went to nearest samsung center and buy a spare battery... now i have no concern about this...but still keep on eye with l2_hsic...the flight mode on and restart will solve this issue..

I was having battery drain issues myself. Got tired of checking CPU Spy and BBS etc. Worried about bricking and wiping so I...
I rooted the phone.
Installed SpeedMod Kernel 3-3 via mobile odin that didnt really solve it.
I installed Abyss kernel. Wiped everything because its supposed to be a safe wipe kernel.
Then installed Criskelo rom
Then installed SpeedMod Kernel 3-3 again and everything was great with battery life.
You have to reinstall apps and setup your phone basically but its well worth it in my opinion. Now my only battery drain is me always messing with my phone.

I would stay away from telling people this is a safe thing to do in ICS, it's been proven many times it is not.
Maybe you have been lucky - so be thankful you're not using a paperweight...

@gayanaji - I use Criskelo's ROM and all the Samsung apps work fine. No probs here. Many of the custom ROMS are based on other Kernels that the Samsung apps do not work with. I am a bit new to this but I believe that is correct. Just make sure to use a Samsung app compatible Kernel if you decide to do it. Also another piece of advice before doing anything read a bunch to make sure you fully understand everything with regards to rooting, flashing custom ROMS etc.
Hi All,
Facing a problem with my Galaxy Note on 4.1.2 (rooted). Phone shuts down in night, most probably when android tries to go deep sleep. Actually by checking the apps log like system panel / Battery monitor widget, it looks like android struggles to go deep sleep and shuts down. I tried to reformat the SD card (32GB class 10) to over come this issue. But no avail. Still facing this issue. In day time it goes to deep sleep rarely.
Please help.
Regards,
Karthi
It could be wakelock apps.. download wakelock detector from google play and deactivate any app causing wakelock
Who do you mean? Phone goes automatically off in the night? Due to battery discharge or sleep of death?

Tried wakelock app also. No abnormal activity.

Automatically shuts down at night. Not due to low battery ( but considerable amount of drain will be there).
Thanks.
Try a clean install of JB ROM and retest. If still the same there could be some motherboard issues.

Issue solved!
Hi All,
Thanks for the suggestion/help. It seems like the issue is with MicroSD (even though it is just 3 months old). So bought a branded one and replaced it with that. Now no more sleep of death or frequent shutdown.
Thanks.:victory::good:
