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've tried those two methods, and still got multipdp issue...
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..

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.
My battery drain very fast after upgrade to ics stock rom.
Got any way to solve it, like settings, etc?
you could use the built in power saver mode.
But we need to find the culprit, Install a monitoring app and /or check the battery stats regularly to see whats causing it.
How did you update to ICS ? Did you do a full wipe before hand ?
direct upgrade thru kies without wipe data
ok, well do not wipe data until you flash a safe kernel.
monitor your battery over the next few days with a monitoring app like watchdog or similar
if it doesnt improve, we will look at doing a wipe and starting from fresh
well....got the same prob....am on rocket rom v7...
the issue is that the battery drains really fast when m connected to h+ network!!
i even put the fone on flight mode and kept it like tat whole night and in the morning cpu spy showd that the fone was on sleep for awmst 7 hours, and the battery drain was just 3 percent!!so tat seems awrt!!
i jus dunno why the battery drains so fast when m connected to the network!!
plzzz a soln will be appreciated!!
Thanxx!!
Maybe you could try a different radio ??
If your current radio isnt finding a strong signal, your phone will be constantly searching for something better, Thus resulting in a lot of drain

It is probably just L2_hsic bug.
Just reboot the phone and search the forums for ways to prevent causing the bug.

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,

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
The problem is back!! HELP!!
I checked OS monitor, nothing seem to be hogging, occasionally android system, overhearting near the camera and resetting automatically, please HELP!!!

Hello,
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...
Ok, first, I looked around and tried stuff like battery calibration etc. but no luck, here's what happened:
I got my galaxy ace and rooted it with CF-ROOT, flashed it using the recovery menu that stock already had.
Phone was ok for 1 week, then it started sucking battery like crazy (also charges too fast), 100% lasts something like 5mins...
(at this point it was still stock with rooted kernel)
Flashed a CM ICS ROM from the forum => same results with battery
Went back to stock, no root anymore => battery still the same
Does anyone know how to solve this? Thanks in advance!

Why didn't you use the normal .zip that just adds super user? Maybe we have the same type of Ace that is completely incompatible with flashed kernels. Brings battery problems. Only kernels you can use are the ones that come with the rom you installed.
Reflash stock rom and root using any other .zip around the forums.
Because you said you charge it too fast. Try to charge it for 3 hrs. If u see 100 % that doesn't mean that it is fully charged already

What do you mean by normal zip? As I said, I flashed stock back, no more rooted kernel, but it's still draining battery, shouldn't it have gone back to normal with stock? Should I root again with this normal zip to be able to solve the problem?
Maybe your battery is "gone" (I mean cannot charge anymore). If you can try your phone with another battery borrowed from a friend or buy a new one cheap to be sure the problem is the battery and not the phone. The last option for me is to buy a new original battery a give a try. If you have a method to test the battery out of the phone is best. Good luck

Do 1 thing. Recharge for a long time till 100% . Choose a stock based rom like sgs2 v10. Do full wipes, delete battery stats.bin, Format data,cache, system, sd-ext ( if any ) & flash rom. Reboot & try battery. If it's still the same, go get a new battery..

hey, try this app called nova battery tester. It will tell you a lot about your battery's condition.
You can find it on the play store.
Also check whether your phone is entering deep sleep.

Tried recharging for long time, no luck, also tried many "battery calibration" apps also with no result.
I'm guessing buying a new battery won't solve anything either given the results with the friend's battery

1. Un-root then root again using the normal method which just adds SU.
2. Try charging for 2-3 hours. Sometimes it displays 100% though the battery level might be as low as 15%
3. Do you do over-night charging/ charge for very long durations/ play lots of games during charging? In that case your battery is over-charged. Check it. It should be puffed up a bit. If this is the case then, sorry mate, but you'll just have to get a new battery. And don't ignore this problem. Trust me, as bad as it is, it's all downhill from here.

He has the phone on his pocket or on a desk not being used and the phone goes from full to 20% in a few hours. Should I flash a rom to help the battery performance or do you think its a faulty battery?
I Would provide screenshots but I dont have the phone on my at the moment.

Was the marshmallow just flashed if so might need to let the battery and kernel set in some scenes screenshots or stats would help determine if its a faulty battery

I ended up flashing back to factory using samsung smart switch, gonna give it another test tomorrow with minimal apps installed and if it drains then i know its a bad battery.
try wiping cache or factory reset in stock recovery. my phone had minor bugs after I installed 6.0 using Odin. factory reset fixed them.

ill try doing that thanks!
My battery life has actually improved since the update.
Make sure NFC is turned off as well (unless you use it often)
My battery life on MM isn't all that bad.. It gave me my first report on the apps that use the most juice, and gave me the option not to have it run in the background.. Not a bad feature.. Mine is rooted with a ton of Apps Frozen or Removed via Titanium Backup.. Battery life isn't better, but over time the device will get to know your habits and battery life should get better over time..
I'm stock MM and rooted running DS Battery Saver with the slumber profile. I'm just settling into it (a day or so) as well but out of the gate it's not too bad (12+ hours per charge). I've got most of the Tmobile and Samsung apps frozen but run a good dose of others.
I'm inclined to think this will improve over the next couple/few days and even more so with a custom kernel.
Update:
So I flashed the phone with samsung smart switch and battery is much better
Not as good as other phones ive used but its much better than what it used to be.

Root it an install deep sleep battery saver if that is an option.
If not, you can install an app like Greenify or Macrodroid and use them to disable sync or data/wifi when the screen is off.
That will help conserve battery quite a bit.
yes thats my next step. Its my fathers phone not mines. Just got my G5 today
