Deep sleep problem after charging - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I'm using Kingdroid v7.1 with notecore v10 kernel. But even before these, the phone never goes deep sleep after unplug the charge until i reboot. I read some blogs lots of people have this issue on ICS. Have you face it and did you solve it?
Thanks.

Try not to install app that has something to do with your cpu or access to, for example temperature and consumption. This i notice when i install those app then suddenly i had wakelock problem. This is only my own observation.
Others said after charging unlock your phone first before pulling the cord.

I've also heard this,
Unplugging while locked leads to issues for some....
Personally I'd throw BetterBattStats & CPU Spy on and see what information you can get from here...

this is a complete bull**** myth that belongs to fairy tales!
what does locking the phone (pulling the charger) and the battery drain have to do in all of these??
I never read such a silly and crappy advice than this... this gotta top the lists of silly jokes on my end
anyway OP.
Don't rely on mumbo jumbo advices. These advices are worthless and totally just a piece of crap
I would go with the advice of just totally wiping your phone first.. don't install 3rd party apps(aside from cpu spy) on your phone, disable all background syncs, datas, 3G wifi, and BT.
With CPU SPY (the one app that you only need to be installed on your phone)... check back if your still getting deep sleep ish...
in that way.. you can really try to resolve your issue thru the process of elimination thru careful selection(of apps your going to install one by one later on)

L2_hsic (latest update 12/12/13)

Yesterday I had this problem with l2_hsic......
Read the rest here
I moved my post because I will need the space for the findings, as I don't see the light at the end of the tunnel.
Here are the findings till now from some users.
I will update this when new ideas/solutions have posted.
what is l2_hsic read the rest here
anirudhgargi said:
HSIC is technology for inter processor comminication. Our phone has two main chipsets AP (here snapdragon, thus the name MSM ) and modem chipset (again by qualcomm). They both are connected via hsic, ...........
anirudhgargi said:
Yes, HSIC is an hardware along with its device driver used for Inter Processor Communication.
Main principle is Android RIL communicates with help of hsic driver to communicate to the CP (modem) chip. And vice-versa. Modem chip also has the same hsic at there side also.
.............
That L2 does not stand for L2 of OSI layer................ There are 4 states (L0(active),L1,L2,L3) state of power saving in USB link also , hsic also uses the same convention.

Hello
I've been encountering L2_hsic and a few other related wakelocks for months (even years), ever since updating my I9100T to ICS (which I did the minute custom ICS roms hit web).......
I searched around and found out the l2_hsic wakelocks are generated by a kernel file "/drivers/misc/modem_if/modem_link_device_hsic.c" which is also responsible for rpm_hsic and tx_hsic wakelocks.
From there I went to CM git and with help from their IRC channel I found the source code for their version of this file:

A explanation from anirudhgargi what hsic is! (09/06/12) post 264 :
anirudhgargi said:
HISC is the interface that connected the main Soc processor ( Also called Applciation Processor AP) to the modem ( 3G or 4G if there are two modems separately )
HSIC is used the standard USB core library. And it is stanrd given by usb.org. The HSIC by itself consumes very less power and is one of the very power efficient and space efficient ways of interconnecting chips. Currently common to Qualcomm and Sammy Exynos architectures.
The reason you seeing too many HSIC wake lock and other wake us's is due to the fact that the HSIC interface is waken up by modem (Normal scenarios are also so many) .

- equal which modem we are using (GB or ICS)
- all available kernels are affected
- all ICS-ROMs are affected
- disable fast dormancy doesn't help(?)
- Wifi settings aren't responsible
- AC charger is equal (maybe a random thing for this user)
- turning airplane mode or data on/off does not help to kill the service

a found on the kernel code from funky81 (25/06/12) post #179
funky81 said:
After search codes in the kernel related with this problem, I've found out the conclusion is that this wild uncontrolled wake lock related with data communication (modem)
Code:
./drivers/misc/modem_if/modem_link_device_hsic.c:wake_lock_init(&pm_data->l2_wake, WAKE_LOCK_SUSPEND, "l2_hsic");
I will try to update the code w/ Samsung Galaxy S3 source code in my kernel...

I have the same kernel wakelock l2_hsic in my phone when it is otherwise idle... no idea what it is though, but in my feeble understanding it means that the phone never gees into deep sleep - and that can't be good can it?
I have the same problem of the l2_hsic wakelock popping up and eating battery. A reset always cures it for some time but it eventually appears again... Very annoying, I hope someone figures out how to get rid of it..
Same here, l2_hsic keeps my phone awake. It's seems to start at some random point and never "switches off" again until I reboot the phone. After a reboot it takes usually takes a couple of hours before this lock reappears.
Never saw this lock on GB, btw.
I'm having the same issue too. Has anyone figured out what it is yet?
I gave up.
Went back to Gingerbread using PC Odin and flashed a pre-rooted LA1.
Installed Mobile Odin Pro and flashed official LPY using Everroot and the 2 injects.
So far it has been running nicely with no wakelocks worth mentioning.
Disclaimer: I am a noob, what i have done might be unsafe and stupid.
same problem here. I also have not found a solution, even though I force-stopped all installed programs it was still there. Bad thing, it reduces my battery life from about 3 days to 14 hrs :/
i have a bunch of random kernel wakelocks that randomly start up and keep going. l2_hsic is one of the worst offenders tho.

Update: Phone is doing great now, with uptime of about 36h.
L2_HSIC does show up in kernel wakelocks but only for about 10 minutes in this 36h period.
Yesterday it seemed like my note cured itself, the l2_hsic wakelock was up for about 10 minutes and after 19 hrs I had 45% left. Without changing anything today it is worse like before. The Samsung-Support did not know what to do except for a factory reset, but I'd really like to find a better solution.
It seems like a restart cures the wakelock for about 24 hrs. I restarted it 1 hour ago and until now the l2_hsic hasn't come up...
you mention "2 injects" -- what are you referring to there? I did the LPY flash via mobile odin pro, but still have the l2_hsic battery drain issue, so perhaps I can try the '2 injects'?
edit: oh, SU and everroot?
SU and Mobile Odin with Everroot selected as well, of course
this deep sleep issue is the reason i went back to gb. believe me this issue will keep coming. im aware that rebooting by turning it off could fix it, but once u charge ur note while awake it will lock at 200mhz again. so annoying,..

You're right. I have the same problem. A reboot fixes it but it's always back when you least expect it. You only notice it once the battery is down by an inexplicable 20%
How do we bring this to the notice of someone who knows how to fix it.
On gingerbread I have other wakelocks. "gps" and sometimes "fuel_alerted".
I joined the club and have this strange wakelock too ^^
Only 4,6% though, so it's no battery drain but regardless of that i was curious and wanted it removed :
Hope there is a more permanent solution for this than rebooting
I use the LPY rom together with CF-Kernel LPF. I had the l2_hsic problem too. For me reflashing the kernel with mobile odin resolved the problem.

I stand corrected, it DID come back, L2_hsic startet some 4h ago and never stopped again.
I've had it, I'll switch to CM9.
When on charger, it's always awake at 200Mhz...
I've read somewhere that if you unplug from charger with the Note in "sleep mode", it will not enter Deep Sleep.
I had the fuel alerted wakelock because the bat was down to 5% and charged it and unplug it while screen off.
Also had the "no Deep Sleep" problem, but after I've started to wake up the phone prior to unplug the cord, it sleeps like a baby (2 days with usage) and always deep sleep when screen is off (checked by spy cpu).
Hope it helps...

I've also read this somewhere on xda. And when I had the problem it was exactly like this. The problem was there when I unplugged the phone with the screen off.

Unplugging while "Awake" is not the solution.
My phone goes into this permanently awake state randomly after upgrading to ICS. (I am stock, and upgraded via Kies...never messed with this phone before). I too noticed the L2_hsic taking alot of time.
I have made a concious effort to investigate this, and I can confirm that unplugging the phone while "awake" as a solution is false.
Not once since I discovered this problem have I unplugged while sleeping, but alas, I am again in a zero deep sleep situation.
Back to restarting this stupid thing every 2 days after finding my battery draining 15-20% in some short minutes.
I abslutely love this phone!!! Best in the world hands down!!! I love ICS!!! But if this problem doesn't go away, I am giving up! Samsung is both the best...and the worst!

[Q] [ASK] HElp to find out what causing this battery drain

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....

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.

@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.

Galaxy note over heating (System UI hogging CPU)

Hi,
I've a G-Note running ICS-4.0.3 , i recently noticed my phone is getting really hot and resetting automatically at times, on closer investigation i see 'CPU spy' data showing my phone running constantly at 1400Mhz mode!!! wanting to find which process is doing this, i downloaded watchdog lite and noticed that 'System UI' process is running at 49% approx CONSTANTLY, killing it re-spwans the process!! any idea whats causing this?? Please Help!!
Not rooted, never flashed, on original upgrade, have nova launcher, use it rarely. no other launchers installed.
Restart fixes this sometimes, sometimes not.
Thanks in advance,
Ramgo.

well try to remember from which app on this issue showed up.I had battery drain problem turned out it was because of an app that I had installed.So I unistalled it and my problem went away.Yours should be easy to spot try unistalling the recent apps or the ones you're suspicious of and see when you get deepsleep.
Check your battery status and see for the battery eater apps

I infact got deep sleep the whole day, 15 hrs just 10 percent drained! this problem has been occuring intermittently, deep sleep is still happenning, but when the phone is screen ON, its in the highest mode.
Hmm things got complicated.Like I said if everything used to be normal then all of a sudden this problem began then it should be an app I suppose?!Just like my case.
Install OS Monitor and see what's hogging your cpu maybe you can pinpoint the application if that's the case.
did anybody have a problem with Gsam battery monitor after it was upgraded from Badass battery monitor??? i was looking at it and was showing 100% battery drain due to application ( 0% for screen and phone radio)!! i have uninstalled it and seems fine i guess! atleast for now! charging now and its in the expected 200Mhz state.

Yes will do that!! Thanks! read my comment below, i think GSam Battery monitor submits some task or makes some query to the kernel which makes it to go in a loop, hence the android system seems to be using more CPU and not battery monitor itself

I'm having a similar problem. When my Note is in standby sometimes it overheats without any apparent reason and battery drains very fast.
I haven't been able to trace the origin of this problem. I'm running on ICS 4.0.3 stock and no ROOT.

Have you installed any kind of launcher on your phone? If you have, do try to uninstall it for now. Install BetterBatteryStats, turn off any data connection.. 3G, Wifi, Bluetooth.. Remove any Live wallpapers(just use a static one), Uninstall any apps that connect or syncs online.
The last thing I could advice you is turn off Airplane Mode (at night), charge up your phone to 100% and just leave it for a day. Check back on BetterBatteryStats after on what apps/wakelocks is triggering the overheating.

Lot's of work... I'll have to find some time to try all of that.
Thanks.
Early last week my Note started to reboot whitout any apparent reason. It happened 2 to 3 times a day. Specially in the morning when battery was still above 60%.
The overheating also happened from time to time but not everyday.
Saturday I figured I had to do something extreme to end this.
First I downgraded to a pre-rooted GB rom. Afterwards wiped the GB rom. Then upgraded to stock ICS. Everything worked out fine and was very easy to perform, thanks to all the guides available on XDA.
Last of all I rooted the ICS.
Until now the Note hasn't overheated or rebooted again.
I really thought it would be harder to do all this. But now I think it would take me about 20 min to do all these procedures.
Thanks to all the people that posted the guides on XDA.

I'll take that as a joke.
Three days in and still no unwanted reboots or overheating.
Gents if you have nothing constructive to provide in assisting the users with real help, please refrain from off topic mindless humor. Thank you.
A week after I've re-flashed ICS on my Note, the unwanted reboots have come back.
It must be some app I've installed again or maybe something much worse. I've read lots of threads and was wondering if a custom kernel and a different ROM might solve this problem.
One thing I've noted, the reboots never happen at night only during the day (mid-morning and mid-afternoon).
Any new ideas to help me find the source of this problem?
EDIT:
I'm running on LPY Kernel, so wipe is not an option...

[Q] Battery health

Hi, I would like to know the best way to measure my battery health. For about a month my battery starts to drain fast. I know my phone is already old and battery don't handle the same charge, but I have recharged the phone all night long and in ten minutes using wifi to just update some apps the battery just gone.
It is just ridiculous as I don't use any different configuration.
To be more specific, my phone configurations are:
- Cyanogenmod 7.2 by vo-1 (31/06/2012) deodexed by me;
- Firekernel Unnoficial OC (22/07/2012), CPU governor: smartassv2, max 787, min 245;
- Adrenaline Engine 4.2b;
One more thing. I was facing the same problem with blackhawk kernel.
I just think a battery can't die a sudden.
Could anyone help me with this?

There are a few things that can be causing this, but the first thing that you can try is to wipe your battery stats using "BatteryCalibration" app. After flashing a few things, it's best to do this. I had the same thing happen after flashing my third ROM or so.
After that, it basically comes down to the apps and widgets that you have running. Shut them off with a task manager so they don't end up draining your battery, but it might not be that either....
The only other thing that I can think of is that I heard in another thread (I really wish that I could find it again ) that the ace has a motherboard fault that causes it to drain faster than usual.
Other than that, all I can say is that the Ace generally has poor battery life, and it really does suck, but I don't really know how much more you can do. You could try flashing a stock-light ROM and see if it does the same thing (wipe battery stats too). But I would say is that you should try wiping the stats and see if anything changes.... Other than that.... I`m out. Hopefully it helps, and if it doesn`t, you might need to take it in (Service Center or wherever you bought the phone).
Maybe try searching in other threads (as it is a common problem) but besides that, goodluck :fingers-crossed:

I forgot to mention but I already did the calibration, using the app and manually to see if I could get different results.
I even tried to force a better charge, charging the phone off, waiting till 100%, unplugging and recharging, till the phone gets 100% again.
Ace's battery isn't good, but a month ago my phone was holding 12-14 hours without charge, using wifi a lot, that's why I think something is wrong.
Well, I'm flashing the original stock rom to see if get some change.
Thanks about the motherboard information, this is new for me :good:
Gonna see tomorrow if the battery holds better with the original stock ROM.
Thanks again!
Wiping the battery stats is a myth. All it does it clear the battery usage screen!
Android has a built in tool which can try to check the health of your battery.
Open the dialer
type *#*#4636#*#*
then go to battery information
Look at battery health.
Feedback
Just to give a feedback, my battery was really damaged. I bought a new one, stock because I didn't find other, and the phone now easily last a day, even using wifi a lot.
But that's not the only reason why I posting here again, I want to share how my old battery is. Comparing with new one, I realized that the old battery had stuffed something about 5 mm
If you pay attention, you'll see the small deformation.
Don't know yet what could have cause this, but I think it was heat and bad recharges...
Thanks for the help :good:

I'd recommend you to use SetCPU to prevent this on your new battery. Set up a profile with sound notification when it hits around 40degree, and underclock it at the same time.
I faced a similar problem. Battery was hardly six months old when it died but it was my fault. I was running a wi-fi tether and continuously charging it for about two days. :silly:
Got a new one under warranty. Been a year with the new battery and just recently facing problems with it. 3G just sucks the life out of it.
OK I just got 3g on my phone (yay for promotional 6gb plans!). But yeah, the 3g definitely kills my battery. I used to be able to go two or three days with very little use. Now I can only go one day even with standby with my 3g enabled. As long as I can put my phone on to charge before it dies, its all good to me
Finally with my 3g going, I understand everyone else's pain with the battery life haha

[Q] Cynogenmod Shuts Down after Installation

Heys Guys Im having an issue with my Captivate, its was working fine for the past week. It started giving me problems like battery temps too high, cant charge, had to charge it manually, removing battery & charging it all night. All this happened when im with stock rom latest with leaked 2.3.5
& i did unlock this with changing the 01 digit to 00 in efs file.
From the past 2 days im trying to install CM10,9, 10.1..... after installation it shuts down itself. Not able to use it.
Is there any way around to make this work. If pics are needed i can provide that too.
Thanks
No reply... :/
Some one should have had an issue.

When/how does it happen?
What are the changes/mods you made?
Did you restore anything?
Did you try different kernel settings?
Did you try flashing a different kernel (like Semaphore?) or flashing a different ROM?
I could be asking more questions but really, I dunno what causes it, I can only guess. Also a search in the CM10.1 thread might give you an answer to your SoD <-- Should've been your first step*

It just happened, battery temp too high errors, thought flashing CM9 would solve this, was bored of Stock Gingerbread, flashed corn kernel & flashed cm9 rom. I did mod anything else. That all

Battery temp to high is a big problem. Did you overcloak? Have you running bunch of stuff at the same time?
When it shuts down, does it reboot by itself or you have to do it manually?

Sounds like Battery health status does not equal healthy. That forces an immediate shutdown, whether due to temperature or excessive internal resistance. That's because once a Li ion battery reaches critical temperature, it combusts and destroys your phone, burns you and anything around it, etc.
GET ANOTHER BATTERY ASAP.
Stop trying to circumvent high temperature shut down.

Recently i bought a new battery, original samsung make, it states the same thing "charging paused for battery durability" sometimes "Charging stopped battery temps high". No overclocking here, just used to call, receive & wifi hotspot. Currently i charge battery in a battery charger & use it in phone.
U pointed out something right, sometimes screen just goes blank, i have to manually switch it on.

But im not able to under stand, why is Cynogenmod shuts down itself after installation, can i just stop shutting down ?

I think it's not CM related but hardware related. Does this happen when not using the wifi hotspot too?
I'm thinking your battery is bad (even if new), charger is bad, connection is bad (maybe from water/humidity) or that your usb port is bad. No easy way of finding it other than testing.

May be yes, the phone some times just goes blank, i have to manually switch ON. The same battery works well in my frnds phone quite well.
Port dont know, i can copy files no errors even now when i plug it in on stock gingerbread the battery doesnt charge but can copy files as before.
Since the batt works well in other phone, a couple of ideas. Perhaps silly to ask, but just checking:
did you wipe battery stats in cwm after flashing?
did you clean the phone's battery terminals with a bit of alcohol?
what's the battery health,temperature and voltage history look like, if you can get it. you can log it with battery monitor widget or similar app. set to short 1 minute interval for testing.
