Battery life is terrible! - Galaxy S III I9305 (4G LTE + 2GB RAM) Q&A, Help &

Hey guys! Sorry to bother you (Again) but I have some serious issues with my battery. First; My phone won't go to deep sleep, Second; When using phone, I think my cpu is locked in 200mhz.
I have same problem pretty much with every rom. And I know that people will say check wakelocks etc. but I don't understand that stuffand I'd like to learn.
Because of those problems my battery won't last more than 8 hours! Which is really bad
Please help! Thanks!

Am I missing something here?
When I install the various .cab files that mamaich and others have posted to the wiki they install to the standard 60.30mb "storage" memory and not to the 123.15mb "program" memory.
Is this correct? or is there a way to install them to the Program Memory?

U just answered urself. Download wakelock checkers in playstore. Or just flash a rom and dun download anything. Then install a few per day and narrow down the app.

Give a thank if i helped you.

i have the same problem since i've updated to android 4.3 (officially, no root).
Since the update, my phone doesn't go into deep sleep at all because of the wakelock mdm_hsic_pm0
Does anyone know what that could be? No wifi/wlan, no gps, LTE is working 95 % of the time in my area and theres no other wakelock like fast_dormancy that keeps my phone awake.
I've tried to close almost every app in the manager, from google play services to the dropbox app, everything.
The wakelock still shows and keeps my phone alive all the time: goes from 100 % to 25 % at night - 9 h without touching the phone.
In 2 Weeks it happened to me two times that the wakelock dissappeared without me knowing what i possibly did to remove it.
It also happened two or three times that the battery didnt charge until i tried another charger - then the old one worked again too.

Got the same problem right now... This mdm_hsic_pm0 does not my phone to go to deep sleep...

Check battery in settings and see if shows media server
Then try a day with out ext SD.
I think it has something to do with ext sd

in my case,it is indeed the media server that drains a lot.is there no was to disable that service/the drain without pulling out the additional sdcard?
it shouldn`t act like a media server,it is only there for storage :cyclops:

Did anyone find a solution?
I am also suffering from mdm_hsic_pm0 wakelocks keeping my phone awake 95% of the time. (Which results in about 8% battery drain per hour.)
Media server does not show up.

Read somewhere formatting yur extsd might help. Might be wrong though. No harm trying. Backup all contents before formatting extsd.

Lt25i battery life

Somehow, my xperia V battery kinda drains pretty fast..while in idle(left phone at room)..aftr 30 minutes, around 4% being down..i dont know why..seems like android system eat my battery..
Sent from my LT25i using Tapatalk 2
Don't forget, it's a new install. Everything has been changed, all caches are gone. Your phone needs to rebuild all. This can take a few days up to a week, depending on how much data you have.
Let it settle some time and you will notice that it will get better.

Try the turning the the extended standby mode in settings and tell me is it working as I am not sure it working on mind.
Can you tell me when your mobile data and/or wifi is turned on when your display is off for a few minutes, unlock to see if it did turn off mobile data/or wifi then it turn on again automatically please.
I have exactly the same problem on my T. Sometimes with Android System, sometimes with Dialer. Don't know why is this happening as many users don't have any problems at all...
well, u can see at the screen shot the logo up there that i use the extended standby mode..and currently, i dont have any mobile data, and it set off all the time, i only using wifi...but turn off when not using..thats all..

32gb c10...but since i just buy the sd card recently, it just been song and picture, no games for the time being, i expect more battery drain if im playing games...so got a little worried..
If you have many pictures and music (just like me - 32GB class 4 SD) there may be issues with media scanner which is trying to scan (possibly) corrupted files or something like that. It's a known issue with JellyBean where the system tries to scan the SD card and hangs in one place which produces unstoppable wakelock. Try to google that and you will see many users reporting similar issues
Besides mediaserver states for music player. If you turn the music on and turn off the screen there will ALWAYS be a mediaserver wakelock. When you turn the music off, close the music player and turn screen off, mediaserver wakelock will stop.
Is there anyone on this thread can show how the extended standby mode works I lost how it actually works.
I went down to shop and played around with a sony xperia T which has the extended standby mode. Same thing happen when wifi/mobile data turned on waited for a a 1/2/3 minutes and unlocked but same thing happen it was still on so I at how it works plus I looked at and stop few services running in settings/apps.

I read how the extended standby mode works. I now know I would have wait 15 minutes for it to turn off wifi/mobile data. I thought I only need to wait a minute or two.
Here is the website http://developer.sonymobile.com/2012/10/05/learn-about-extended-standby-mode-sonys-new-power-save-feature-video/
I think I might stick to JuiceDefender Ulimate app as it turned them off automatically.

The story of my short life battery!
I got my Xperia T 3 days ago, and today i put Jelly bean, but right from the beginning, with wifi turned off, data turned off, overnight the battery drains by 30%.
It does not even stay for half a day! I searched around in net, and in Sony forums they say, since the phone is new, it would take time to settle?? Frankly , this is the first phone i am experiencing this issue with, none of the phones i used , ever drained battery with possibly nothing being used within a day!
I was excited of this phone, but now i feel depressed because of this battery issue it has taken me down since i bought it.
I am thinking of replacing the battery, but guys any suggestions from your side, any Apps which can help me tell who is eating away all the battery?BTW it says "Android System" 70% usage!! Is this normal??
Please help.

[Q] Android OS re-install?

Helllo,
I have a rapid battery drainage problem and I tried various things to stop that:
Restored factory settings maybe tree times.
Installed Nova launcher
Installed Juice Defender (aggresive mode)
Rooted my phone and calibrated it.
Installed CPU tuner
But nothing really helped. Today after full charge (12h. because the phone is new) and two hours of use, I have 79% of battery left, do to writing some messages, that's all. I know it is not normal, so I thought maybe fresh OS should fix this problem but I don't know if it is possible to re-install Android on LG P880?
hey and welcome to XDA
first of all, of course it's possible to flash another firmware on our phones.
what firmware du you use? have you full wiped after rooting your phone? if not, please try this.
another (easier) way to "calibrate" you battery is to charge it to 100%, then discharge it completely until it turns itsself off and then recharge it to 100%, but keep the charger about 2h still plugged in. then try again.
If all that doesn't help, then you can think of flashing another firmware. first try the easier way
btw, i don't like apps like juice defender etc not very much...
Odp: [Q] Android OS re-install?
Heavy battery draining is V10H firmware problem, i recommend to flash V10G (it's in General section) or to flash CM10 or CustoNexus, each of them has longer battery life

i'm using V10h and i've got not even a bit battery drain... i get about 1,5 days with a "good" usage (listening about 2h music and playing about 1h games per day) and i've got mobile data and wifi always enabled and installed lots of apps...

I use 4.0.3 (10h) version. And no, I haven't done full wipe after rooting my phone.
I have tried that easier way to calibrate the battery couple of times but nothing has changed.
That's why I think about installing an older firmware (or even the same 10h).
P.S. when idle the battery looks stable but when the phone is used then the battery start dropping like crazy.

[Q] How can I tell what's eating my battery?

About a week ago, I started noticing that my phone battery gets very hot and the battery drains quickly when the phone is NOT in use (Screen off, sitting on my desk). Full charge to 0% in 4 four hours or so, without being stressed.
When I try to charge it from the supplied wall charger, it doesn't get past 87% charged before the battery temp creeps into the 40s and it starts draining (while still plugged in).
I assume it's a faulty battery, only because I haven't downloaded anything new. The only change I made was updating Viber. I removed that app from my phone but it's still dropping like a fly.
I've done a factory reset twice, no change.
Rebooted the phone many times, no change.
Tried different cables and different chargers (PC, Old X10), no change.
Now, since I can't replace the battery in this phone, I'm hoping there's a software method to see what might be eating the battery.
Note : My LT30a .195 can't be rooted, and the bootloader can't be unlocked. Also, I don't know how to take screenshots.
Anyone have an suggestions ??
In Settings-Battery you should be able to see what processes are using it.
If you want to monitor cpu load in real time, then you'll need some app, like OS Monitor to see load per process, or PowerTutor for logging cumulative consumption.
I bought this phone several days before. Yesterday got root, installed cwm recovery and installed jb 4.1.2 deoxed stock Rom. I noticed that my phone can't sleep. Totally! Take a look on screenshots. I thought that may be bcoz of some apps so I wiped everything (int and ext sdcard too), but it makes no sense

Turning off your auto sync when not needed should do the trick.
Something's wrong there. I've got too much battery consumption by Android System too, but that is ridiculous.
¿Have you tried BetterBatteryStats to see what's keeping it on?.

AudioOut_2 is related to any games or apps related to sound or which "produce" sound..are you on stock rom and stock kernel?
try to exit any music player app after listening or exit the game properly after playing..sometimes keystrock sound causes it..
do one thing...reboot it and keep it idle for an hr or so..and while rebooting make sure your phone is not in silent or vibrate mode..and after an ar check the batterystats and let us know!
And do check all the columns including partial wakelocks and try to find which process used more time or percentage...

Android system battery drain

Hi folks, I don't know if it's normal that the "android system" is taking to much battery, even if my phone is in stamina mode
As you can see is the most draining processes in my phone and I don't know why, all the apps seems to be alright and nothing is running in background in stamina mode, I only choose the three apps that I use most, Google, WhatsApp and Facebook.
I had search but I only get information about this issue about the Samsung galaxy, nothing according to my xperia Z, any help would be appreciated.
Regards
Sent from my C6602 using xda premium
I've had that on my Xperia s, tx, t, z. Nearly all Sony phones are like that after a long period of use.
Im not 100% sure but turning off auto sync sometimes help and it may be the root of the problem.
I have a temporary fix and that is repairing it and start fresh again.
I rmb trying out a really really lite rom by curiosity for Xperia t and never had this issue. I don't know what did he removed, but he definitely removed quite a number of apks.
So conclusion, it's one of the system crap that must go and it might be the auto sync.
Its really funny how only a few people brought this up. I am currently having this issue on my z and I'm too lazy to start fresh.
And if I rmbed doomlord had this problem too, I dont rmb there was a solution to it. Too lazy to find the thread.

Indeed, I am not going to complain about the battery life because it's great, but if I can figure how to solve this issue I am pretty sure that the battery life will be awesome.
About the auto sync all the major apps are off, Twitter, facebook, localization and I am checking constantly all the apps trying to find where it's the problem
The only app that I have in sync is Google, calendar, contacts and gmail

I've had my z for about 2 weeks now. During that 1st week was fine. I leave sync on and everything on over night with stamina mode on. Next day when I wake up battery only drops 1%.
After a week of use, this problem started to appear, I have android system and android os hogging the battery. So I did the same test as above and the next day I ended up dropping 9-10%.

You should just turn off all sync. Go play store and find toggleswitcher for small apps.
There's a sync button to turn off all sync at once. So you don't have to do it individually and going to settings every time.

Go to apps and select the google plus app, at the menu select "convert to user app", then reboot
After that go to greenify and now you can take it away :victory:
PS Also deleted the com.sonyericcson.android.wakeup, so far so good, no more awakes

I dont know why com.sonyericsson.android.wakeup takes so much awakes, I read here in XDA that I can delete this app without any issue at all
what do you think?

It's the same for me. It must have to do with Fast Dormancy. But strange that I get those Wakelocks although my carrier supports it

I have international 434 and the wifi is on, but the phone is deepsleep, the problem here is the android system, I dont know why but drains my battery pretty fast, almost 40% just the same as the screen 40%
any ideas what I have to delete or hibernate?
Im having like 10-15% battery drain through the night.
Only my gmail sync is on, and ofc wifi... But is it that stupid that it keeps phone awake for whole time because of wifi and mobile data? I mean, what the push is for then?
Just turn off WiFi or all sync over night.

[Q] High Android OS Battery Usage?

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.

Try use Wakelock detector Or betterBatteryStats apps to check is there any hsic_mmc thingy??report to us here. That's probably been preventing phone deepsleeping..

nope, all i see in wakelock detector and bbs is android os, nothing strange like hsic_mmc :S
like, all i see are actual apps
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?

this seems to be an issue since android 4.2.2
the only way to get rid of this issue is to have wifi and mobile data turned off.
try it and please post back

Just install app ops, in app look for Android System, turn off both location and keep awake. Done.

[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!)
Then simply go an search for "Google Play Services", tick "Prevent Wake Lock" and add the above mentioned services to the list.
After one day of doing this my phone battery lasts far longer now, draining only about 1-2% an hour instead of 8-10% as it was before.
If this worked for you please hit the "Thanks!"-Button! This is not for my own pleasure, it's for everyone else having the same issue and want to find a legit, fast, easy solution
Also, that's what the button is here for
