Hi all,
After noticing my battery was draining quickly, and then after reading this thread , I installed Android System Info to see what was draining my battery so fast. I notice that whenever I would turn on WiFi, the phone will never go to sleep , regardless of what I set the WiFi sleep policy to. After turning off WiFi, the battery still drains heavily.
The WiFi will shut off after 15mins (if you set it to "When screen turns off" or "never when plugged in"). However it seems to keep the CPU on causing it to drain down the battery.
It would seem that whenever WiFi is enabled, the Android system process creates a partial wakelock that does not go away even if you turn off WiFi, and even when the WiFi shuts off as per the WiFi sleep policy. The only way to resolve this is by powering off or rebooting the phone.
You can verify this in Android System Info by going into Battery-History-Other Usage-Partial Wake usage to see how much time the "Android System" process holding a partial wake.
I even did a factory reset on the device; and it is still happening so it doesn't appear to be any app that caused the issue. As I said, it works fine as long as I don't enable WiFi.
I already know of two users having this issue, but I'm wondering if folks having battery problems are going through this as well. Is anyone else having similar issues after using WiFi? I'm hoping someone will be able to identify what exactly is putting the wakelock on and we'll be able to find a fix for it. Other than not using WiFi at all or rebooting the phone after using Wifi.
Does someone know if there is a utility to drill down and see which process would be causing the wakelock? "Android System" doesn't give me any more details.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
btw I'm not using any battery savers or task killers.
Update...i have the wifi sleep policy set to "never". Also have the network time sync disabled. I am no longer getting alot of battery drain from the Android System partial wakelock.
However, this means WiFi is on all the time....which burns up the battery as well.
Do you think this is a Samsung bug or Android that won't properly let the device sleep when the WiFi sleep policy is set to anything but Never?
Hoping someone at XDA can figure this one out.
I wonder the same thing...I lose about 20% during the night when the phone is not used for about 7 hrs. Not sure if that's normal or not

Set the WiFi sleep policy to "Never" and reboot the phone. Shut WiFi off if possible overnight. You should notice a big improvement with battery life.
Devs - is there any way to see what is wakelocking the Android System process?
The WiFi sleep policy seems to be broke on the Captivate so hoping someone that really knows these things can help out to identify what is going on.
I've had wifi sleep policy to "never" since I got it. Turning off wifi when going to sleep will slow down battery drain when the phone is not in use all night?

It should. Also setting the network to gsm only will use less battery. We need to find a way to see what process is holding that lock. Any dev experts out there please chime in.

That is anything but normal unless you live where your cell signal is very weak. I see about 1% lose every 60- 90 minutes when idle. 10-12% when browsing or reading xda. Dont do heavy gaming do not sure what you should see there. Weak cell signal will kill battery life as can other factors.
I do have a weak cell signal at my house. I'll have to ck it in idle mode in my office, where I have a good signal to see if that makes a difference
On the other hand I just recently installed beautiful widgets and use it's live wallpaper. Also lookout..I'm thinking that could be a battery hog
I'm experiancing the exact issue in the op.
Android System is holding a partial wake lock of about 30-40%
My battery drains 40% overnight.
Are there any fixes for this?
The problem for me was definitely the stock email app continuously polling my Exchange server, killing the battery and my data plan. I resolved it by removing the Exchange server from the stock mail app, and by using Nitrodesk's excellent Touchdown app for mail instead. Touchdown isn't free but it's very good. And now my battery performance is back where to it was prior to the Gingerbread update.
Thanks, Google, for carefully testing this update before releasing it on the unsuspecting public (NOT). You caused a lot of grief for a lot of people.

I may be wrong, but isn't the default email app from Samsung?
Though, you are correct. I setup my work exchange on it as well and it is definitely a killer. Lately I haven't really been giving a **** and just charge my phone every night. However, I might look into this Touchdown app now.

for the stock email app you can configure the sync schedule so it doesn't continuously poll your exchange server overnight. i have my sync schedule set to push when i normally wake up and an hour after i get off of work. during off peak hours its set to manually update.

how did you set this up??
I have a galaxy note, upgraded to the last version of 2.3.6 (JPLA1).
After upgrade i relized that the battery life has decreased. Then i made a factory reset. However, my phone does not stay in deep sleep mode very long. Actually it stays awake during whole night.
What could be the cause of this problem???
I have taken screen shots, attached...

the best although a bit demanding way is to check with BetterBatteryStats,
you could also try disabling not-absolutely-necessary features (GPS, some data syncs etc.) to check which decreases battery consumption,
there's also Autorun Manager with which you can disable unnecessary startup apps (lots of them are set to autorun after device start, some may try to update over the net too frequently)
I wonder what firmware you're on... mine (LB1) shows wifi status on the summary screen as well. my phone used to stay awake all night too, until I started turning off wifi for the night (FYI, I shut down the cell data connection when I arrive home, so it's not on for the night either)

Mine is LA1.
And my wifi is off as well as data connection during the night.
Also i realized something wierd. If i activate 3g, Android OS drains battery more than 70% percent. If i activate 2g, then Android OS drains only 10-15%. DAta connection is on for both. There could be a problem with the LA1 kernel maybe but i am not sure.
From what i've read, while (really) sleeping, the note shouldn't take more than 5%, and that seems normal/logical to me. But in my case, it drains 70% and it seems even in plane mode, i just don't get it...

Try disabling Fast Dormancy, it does generate wakelocks on my SGN as my network doesn't support the feature.
Dial *#*#9900#*#* and select "Disable fast dormancy".
That's good for reducing some wakelocks anyway.

I installed betterbatterystats but i did not get it very much.
Should i check something or change some of the settings?
or the program does what is necessary by itself?
I think this is not the case because my phone still does not enter into sleep mode.
@knightnz
I disabled fast dormancy. But i like to ask something.
What is fast dormancy?
Edit: I checked my phone now. There left 75% battery after 10 hours less than normal use. Data and 3g is on. However i unchecked "backup my data". I think this made me gain 10 hours of battery life
BadAss Battery Monitor (free)
Press menu and "App sucker". Go to "wake ups" or something like that. Let the phone run in standby for some while before checking. I bet it's an app that won't go to sleep.
I used to get this quite often but I found a way to stop it. Basically when i disconnected the charger when the screen was off the phone always stayed awake the only way to put it back to normal was to reset the cache in download mode. So i tried disconnecting the charger after putting the screen on first ( unlock phone) and it never happened again.

I have installed BetterBatterStats. When i checked partial wakelocks, the higher count is for AlarmManager (Android System). And the higher percentage (0,5%) is for PowerAMP.
Does this mean anything?
May i ask, how many % does your note consume every x hours? Making a report with your kernel/rom would be good, don't you think? Maybe a poll?
I have no idea how to get to the bottom of this. Everything I normally try simply doesn't work when it comes to fixing this problem. In Better Battery Stats, it's clear that something is causing the modem to stay awake, because msm_hsic_host is a direct reference to external modem. I will literally have 10-20 minutes max of partial wakelock from sync and then I will have over two hours of msm_hsic_host wakelocks. Avast and Better Battery Stats all do not show any application taking up significant data in the background.
This is making the difference between 4-5 hours of screen on time and 6-7 hours of screen on time. Is there some sort of method to figuring out what is destroying my battery life?
Don't know if this information will help, I have used wakelock detector from play, a free app to show various wake locks .
Also tried Qualcomm battery guru, again free from play , it's a beta app specifically for phone with Snapdragon soc. When first enabled it monitors your phone usage for over 24 hours before enabling various power saving options, that can be customized by the user.

hmm.. interesting to see this as i thought this was a 4.2 issue. See this thread below. The wakelock is related to a driver issue from qualcom who makes the snapdragon s4 pro and 600. They released a patch that has been merged into various custom kernels but the issue remains in the AOSP stock kernel to this day. This is a main reason why i dont mind being on 4.1.2 instead of 4.2.2 until google or a dev for the HTC one fixes it, your battery life will suffer

I ran a wireshark to figure out what was causing it.
One of my issues was Hotmail sync. Setting it to Push apparently means that it will constantly send packets back and forth. Stupid, but whatever.

Hey,
can you explain how you ran a wireshark? I have this wakelock and can't figure out how to stop it and I dont use hotmail sync
Same problem here.... Lot of wake locks and can't find out what causes it.
24% lost in 9 hours sleep mode.
I have the same problem. Because of this Wakelock my HTC One won't go back to DeepSleep.
Is there no app/tool to observe which ap causes this wakelock?
did anyone find a solution? which network are you on (i'm on vodafone nl)
Facebook messenger!
I had this issue as well.. the wakelock was doing its thing like 50% of the time.. removed facebook messenger => the values are back to normal.
Please post if you can see the same..

It's apparently much better than the n4 which had nearly the same wake lock as off-charger time. The snapdragon 600 with HTC has much improved the wake lock times.
i woke up today to see this happen for the firs time to my phone.
newest changes to mine: installed ARHD 9 (but it was fine the day or two since, only last night it was unplugged from the wall, instead of the usb port)

This RILJ wakelock on the dialer seems to be impossible to remove. I've tried everything from disabling all apps, turning off the phone and turning it back on with airplane mode, TWO factory resets, turning off all GPS and location services, and even shutting off my mobile data. I even did all of those steps at once and to no avail.
I'm running stock right now but I seriously can not use this phone when this wakelock is disrupting my phone every damn second. I don't know if this is the right section to post this, but is anyone else experiencing this issue? Is there even hope?
I've tried what feels like everything. I feel like this will drive me crazy to the point where I will just exchange the phone and claim battery problems. Again, sorry if this is the wrong section to post this in, and I feel like such a dirty leech making a help post as my first post. This is my first android phone and I have a lot of experience with java but I need to feel secure with my new phone before I start delving into development.
Are you talking about a wakelock you see in a battery monitoring program? Or an error that keeps popping up?

Yes I understand this, but the wakelock shouldn't be going off over 2000 times, right? I mean, I'm totally new to android but I've never seen this wakelock before. I'm in NYC and usually have great reception, right now I'm getting 4G LTE 3-5 bars constantly. Could it be a hardware issue with my radio?

OK, so before I answer that, what sort of battery are you getting? What's your screen on time?
All android phones have this wakelock. It's not a hardware issue, 100%
Oh, I'm sorry but I also thought you meant a different wakelock xD RILJ wakelock is caused by having a lot of location services on, turn these off (Google Maps, Latitude, Weather constantly refreshing)

I have essentially every single service off, only google's anonymous location service which is required for the weather app to work. All the sync stuff I can't turn off is set to refresh at the lowest intervals.

You're welcome. I have the same set up as you and I average about the same battery life, I think your device is fine. I would just stop looking at your wake locks and enjoy! Try flashing ARHD rom! The new base adds 2+ hours battery.

I didn't have this wakelock for those pictures. This thing is sapping my battery life causing an extra 1-2% drain an hour, which adds up quickly. It also doesn't let the phone enter deep sleep if I remember correctly.
Hey guys, im currently running CM10.1 nightlies and I have noticed that in my battery stats, android os chews a lot of my battery.
I checked with better battery stats whats happening, and it shows that google services and google search is waking my phone a lot,
so i disabled then.
the issue still persists and i don't know what to do
someone shed some light?
I have heard that this problem is uniform across all android 4.2.2 devices?
EDIT: SOLUTION. just turn off wifi and mobile data if you want to sleep your phone.

Even though this is on stock, This thread will help (maybe)
Try disabling the backup services, as they tend to run for like half an hour each time you power up your phone, or maybe it does that everyday.

I came across the same issue, where I was getting a quick battery drain. I went ahead and unticked auto sync and have wifi shut off via toggle and only turn it on when I need it. After checking the Android OS percentage, it went down by half and battery life now is insane, once in sleep mode, it preserves a lot of battery. I was at 100% at 8:15 am yesterday morning and today I am on 72%, granted I haven't used the phone that much but prior to the previously mentioned steps, I would probably be recharging as we speak!
Start BetterBatteryStats and check your kernel wakelocks - it could be the msm_hsic_host wakelock that is causing your battery drainage?

[SOLVED] Solution!
SOLVED!
After maaaaaaaany weeks of googling, searching, WakeLock monitoring, more searching...
I finally fixed what's causing this!
The wakelocks are named:
NlpCollectorWakeLock
NlpWakeLock
Those were the main battery drainers (those freaking suckers!).
They aren't that important to run in the background at all, it's just a location service by Google Now (you know, just so the NSA has more data from you).
It does not affect the device performance or function in any way (as far as I know but I guess it prevents Google Now from searching your location while your phone is locked).
The simple fix for all this:
Simply download "Wakelock Terminator" from the Play Store and run it. You also need Xposed for the installed module to run tho which means you also need a rooted device.
(Downside of the free version: You can only prevent one service from running unlimited wakelocks, for more you'll need the paid version. But because you'll most likely fix only the draining problem you won't need more anyways!)
