There is a widget in the market that shows the uptime of your phone. Does anyone know of one that will show the uptime and the awake time with % awake? If not, I was wondering if someone could try and make one.
i think you can see this in the phone settings if you go to setting --about phone -- status --very bottom
I found where it is in the menu but I am looking for a widget so i dont have to dive into the menus everytime.
Sorry for the interruption but what the up time of the phone mean exactly?
Uptime is the length of time since the phone was last turned on. Awake time is the amount of time the phone is in use. Whether playing games, surfing, using the phone, ect. The more awake time you have the more you use the battery. There are some apps that tend to keep the phone awake even if the screen is off. This will eat the battery alot faster.
Hi
I think I might have an issue with the battery on an xperia sp which I got a few days ago. When idle with stamina on it's loosing between 1-2% per hour. I've used Gsam and recorded some stats to show what's using up the battery when the phone is not in use. Hope it makes some sense
loosing ~2% per hour phone in idle screen off
Stamina on, GSM only
Tried airplane, not much difference
Tried Stamina off, no difference
Charged to 95%
61% @ 10:16PM
34% battery use - of that
screen 56.3% (1hr 47min)
phone radio 6.5%
wifi 3.7%
apps 33.3%
TOTAL DRAIN ON BATTERY
-------------------
19% screen (avg 0.18% per minute)
2% phone radio
1.2% wifi
11% apps
____________________________________________
13 HOURS IDLE LATER - 17-20% BATTERY GONE
____________________________________________
44% @ 11.04AM(QUICKLY DROPPED TO 41% in around 2
minutes)
51% battery use - of that
screen 49.8% (1hr 48min)
radio 13.1%
wifi 7.4%
apps 29.6%
TOTAL DRAIN ON BATTERY
-------------------
screen 25.4% (WHY THE INCREASE of 6.4% when OFF all the time?)
radio 6.6% (+4.6%)
wifi 3.78% (+2.58%)
apps 14.8% (+3.4%, not sure why, stamina turns off all apps?)
6.4 + 4.6 + 2.6 + 3.4 = 17%
Why are these using up so much power in idle with stamina mode on?
Hello,
remove your simcard, reboot, got in to flightmode and let Wifi enabled.
now let phone unused for 8hours. its all Ok then accu should drain only 0,05%/h.
This is my XSP which i use only as alarmclock an every day 1 hour as Musicplayer.
I have tried without the sim card but it didn't do anything.
I notice in your screenshot though that there is no connection to 'mobilfunknetzsignal' ... mine is there even when the sim card is out, how did you get rid of it?

You must enable the flightmode under "settings->network->more" .
and then please install BetterBatteryStats to see if you have wakelocks and your device go in to deepsleep after turn of the screen.

Ah yes.. I tried flight mode one night and it still lost 15%
I have also used wakelock detector and it says phone is in deep sleep 99 percent of the time but still the battery is draining 1-2% per hour
Right now the battery is 27% down from 44% 2 hours ago... and I have hardly used it. I'll recharge and try again without turning screen on at all and see whats using it up.
Is there any explanation why the screen used 6.4% of the battery overnight when it was off all the time?
I'm too having about same problem..and am really interested in answer/solution,,,
Please, anyone?
I think I have fixed it but not sure. Phone was charged 24 hours ago to 99%, now its 94%. Definitely not using alot of power with stamina mode now but the screen was only used for 5-10 minutes, I've yet to test if it acts the same after screen has been used for a long time before going idle.
What I did was run phone setup again and update all apps
Now 88% after 40 hours, screen on for 25 minutes. Xperias battery monitor and gsam show completely different usage, android system takes up the majority in the xperia one but only 10% in gsam (under apps)
I checked wakelock detector and something called 'syncloopwakelock' was on for 4 and half hours. Is there any way to disable this? I already have auto sync in settings turned off.
A phone is meant to be used. Using it only from time to time to have as much standby time as possible is just a waste of a good phone.
I can get two days with heavy use. A lot of music, whatsapp, facebook and XDA Premium app..

I know, but there was a clear issue before as the battery was draining 20 percent overnight reducing the time I can actually use it. I was getting 5 hours screen on time one day, and only 2 hours the next. Just trying to make sure it has stopped, seems like it has
Would like to solve this syncloop thing though. I have no interest in syncing any accounts as I don't use them.
Simple fix
Change your rom, stock rom eats so much battery and has so many bloats, apps keep running in the background all sony apps.
MIUI is on jellybean and it gives me average of 1 day 20hours on normal use with wifi always on and sim card inserted..texting call and stuff
Problem has returned, woke up today to find battery under 50% and it was at least 75% when I went to sleep. Wakelock detector doesn't show anything and says phone was asleep all the time. Sony's battery graph though shows the phone was awake most of the time, but I can't find the cause in GSam or wakelock detector.
i think i have a idea. it can come from WiFi. there is a bug in all android 4.1. Set Wifi to allways on and deactivate/delete LocationBasedWiFi app from sony.
you can found it with BetterBatteryStats under Process.
Some screenshots
in this screenshoots the problem is not shown. When it comes from WiFi driver it is not a app that drain the accu, but a process.
The Line with awake in history details you can ignore, its buggy in 4.1.
I have searched through everything in Wakelock Detector and only process I found with alot of time is syncloopwakelock which is 4.5 hours. But this was already about 4 hours when battery was 85%
If I buy BetterBatteryStats will this show the problem? As you an see it drained at slow rate for 2 days then suddenly started dropping faster yesterday. I made no changes to Wifi settings, it is always on ... and I use Stamina mode.
Yes BBS will show the problem as "wifistatemachine", if the error should really be come from. you must not buy it, search on XDA for apk.
but if it come from your syncloopwakelock then i can not help.
Holy crap
I charged the phone to 96%, used it for 30 min (down to 92 percent) then went to sleep. Woke up and it was 28% and kept dropping !!! I've checked BBS, Gsam and I can't find the cause... again. After uploading these SS its at 12 percent.

I'm getting a regular wakelock labeled msm_hsic_host. I thought this was related to the phone's radio, but I turned on airplane mode and the wakelock continues. Anyone know why?

You probably have a rogue app polling for a radio signal and putting it in airplane mode is making it worse.
The same wakelock doubled my battery drain last night. I had it in airplane mode overnight. Going to leave the signal on tonight and see what happens. I was getting between 3-7% but it was 15% last night.
Tested it again last night. Unplugged at 4pm yesterday and used 5% battery overnight. I just hit 24 hours with light/medium use today and battery is at 75%. I know others have shared this but battery life has certainly improved with time. The wakelock is certainly reduced leaving data connected overnight. Hope this helps.

How are you able to see wakelocks without root?

GSam battery monitor has an option at the bottom that looks like a vacuum. Its called app sucker. Once that screen opens there is a drop down menu at the top that allows you to see the kernel wakelocks. Then you can select each wakelock and the next screen has a button there to google it. Hope this helps.

It does! I'm used to better battery stats, and still learning gsam. Thanks!
Looks like it's a big problem for alot more phones. I have the same wake lock also. I get about 1% per hour by leaving it overnight. Is that normal?

I think it is. But alot depends on your settings and the strength of the cell connection. Actually the cell connection is about the biggest battery drain that I have. I use Tasker on my phone. It disconnects my cell connection when the screen times out and limits anything running in the background. Calls and texts still come through. When the screen wakes up everything reconnects. Some would say the settings I use are extreme but I get good battery life from it. Tasker can be difficult to start at first but there are some good youtube how-to videos. Im hoping the new battery saving feature in lollipop will make it unnecessary to regulate any settings. I guess we will see.

This. I use tasker to turn off data and auto sync when I go to sleep (because its literally a waste of battery) and I got 0% to 2% drainage overnight (total, not hourly) but that was with a custom rom. I expect 0.5% to less than 1% per hour with this phone because at idle with 4g on I drain about 1%/hr
Hi all, How to check screen on time with Mini 2? Can't find it under power settings, it shows only hardware and apps battery time but what about screen? Also what is your readings, is it bad, good or mediocre?

Love it Love it Love it
I don't mind screen timeout, I'm talking about battery life and screen on time (SOT).

sorry my bad
settings> power> history
youll find a graphic there.
hi yes I know there is a graphics with timeline but not hours and minutes to tell you how long screen has been turned on since last charging. I'm using GSam Battery Monitor app to calculate my SOT, I'm got this HTC from new 3 days now and I'm after second charge.
My results are not bad, see picture Time since last full charge: 18h34m, 69% remaining including
Screen on Time 1h29m, Calls 20min, WiFi 10h, Web Browsing 30min, Nova 3 gaming 30min, few emails, txt, Auto sync off (just check emails when I want), location off, Auto brightness on, power saving mode on (turned off while gaming). While I sleep 7hrs battery dropped 2% only. Due to not big 2100mAh battery it seems to be good.

same for individual apps.
I'm using better battery stats and i see the awake screen off time is always exponentially higher than my actual screen on time, slowly it balances out as i near towards 0% , i check kernel wake locks partial wake locks everything looks fine, what's causing this ghost bug to keep the phone awake when screen is off? is doze not working? on my one plus 3t, there was no major 'awake screen offf' stat in bbs it was always a low percentage but on the note 8 it's always top 3 ... what gives?
Are you using AOD?

Nope. Have edge notifications turned off as well
downloaded wkelock detector, besides the standard google wakelocks, IFTT is waking up the phone thousands of times.
How can i tell IFTT to chill ?
Try using "force doze" app, from playstore, also search for it here in xda for how to fine tunning it, I am getting ~ deep slepping 80% of the idle time with AOD edge clock, that translates in 0.7% per hour of idle with the screen off

Okay I'll try that, I assume greenify would do the same thing?
Overnight results
So I used force doze and still have high awake times while screen is off
This is driving me insane been using bbs for years and never had this show up this high before
still having the same problem, i used to get 6-8 hrs of SOT i can barely crack open 5hrs of SOT now, can anyone using better battery stats confirm they are getting lower screen off awake time?
I removed force size app and installed greenify 4 magisk. No diff in results
Anyone?
All I'm asking is for competitive better battery stats screenshots of screen off awake time
Sorry to revive this old thread.
@masri1987 - where you able to find a solution to this?
