What is ts_wake_lock? - Huawei P20 Pro Questions & Answers

Hello. Recently, I installed BetterBatteryStats hoping I could find what drains my battery during standby and so on. So what I have found is that there is this wakelock called ts_wake_lock. Does anybody around here know what this is about and how it could be fixed? Thank you.

Same problem here... My battery drains during standby too.
Attached screenshot.
What is this process?
How to stop it?

I honestly still have no idea what it is. It seems to drain my battery like crazy even after a factory reset. The interesting thing is that this seems to be less of a problem when I have movement detection disabled. But still, the wakelock is there and what the guy above mentioned simply is useless because it's a kernel wakelock.

I thought about a downgrade, but I fear to brick the phone :|

I had it on 108 and I have it on 120 as well.(L29C432) I don't think a downgrade will help you, though.

I haven't received the update notification yet... Hope the new firmware will solve the problem on my device.

Folks, I have exactly the same problem! And ideas how to fix it? It disappears in save mode, so it must come from an Huawei exclusive app? I also noticed ridiculous values for the motion detection.

It's the (t)ouch(s)creen wakelock (or one of them anyway, I think there are others as well). AFAIK it fires every time you touch the screen.
Check your display & developer settings... screen timeout, aod etc I see this wakelock on my p20 pro, but it doesn't seem to impact on my battery unduly.
Change one setting and see if it makes a difference, then try another etc.... Not sure, but it also could be an app keeping the screen alive.

Thanks, that's what I was guessing, too. It has something to do with the "lift to activate" feature, I guess. My device has billions (really) of ts_wake_lock and significant_motion triggers in the bug report. It does affect the battery quite a bit here. I'm not sure what could cause this, I have reset my phone a few times and I currently have no user apps except for BBS installed.

I have the exact same problem on my mate 10 pro. Its a new phone, i have factory reset it a couple of times.
My BBS stats look almost identical.

No, not really a solution. It went away after a while. I think I deactivated the play services, deleted its file and cache and then updated it to the newest version. This helped me with a better battery life. The ts_wake_locks are still there but only very few compared to the number I had before.

[Q] My Nexus 6 is almost always awake. What to do?

My Nexus 6 is compeletely stock and untouched software. I have attached screenshots from Nexus 6 (5.0.1) and Note 3 (5.0) to show the point I'm talking about.
When I'm sleeping as you can see on the Note 3 it has very few awakes. But Nexus 6 on the other hand is almost always awake. It drains about 20-25% battery overnight.
I have performed factory reset 3 times and now it has almost no additional apps installed but still the same. (don't judge by the facebook on the screenshot it's just installed and the problem is the same with or without it) I'm not rooted so i can't use the wakelock detector. I've installed GSam and it shows Android OS and Android system as biggest drainers for the current situation (16%, 6%) which i suspect nothing extraordinary.
I have play services 6.7.76 on both devices if it has anything to do with it. I tried something like turning the ambient display off and some other settings to see if theyre waking it but no luck yet. Do you think it is a software thing and Google will eventually fix it and I should wait or what should i do?
I really want to keep this phone but the battery is a big concern for me right now. every morning seeing the battery down without touching the phone is a big problem. Any help and information on the subject is appreciated.
Edit: I have added a screenshot from safe mode. I restarted in safe mode to see if any 3rd party is the cause of the problem. But the problem persists. And I have noticed that when the wifi is compeletely off (Keep awake, Always scanning etc.) the problem is solved. But whenever i turn on the wifi, even when it is not connected to any network, it starts draining battery and keeping phone awake like on the graphics. Can anyone give me a hint if this can be a hardware related issue with the wifi receiver? Or it looks like a software issue and can be solved with the 5.1 update? I have 3 days to return the phone if its a hardware thing. Thanks
You should probably update to 5.1 and see if that helps.

Do you know if it is a common issue and 5.1 fixes it? I've checked the updates but nothing showed up so far. I'm close to 14 day window for my T-Mobile purchase so i need info on 5.1 about this issue and i didn't see anything related :/

You might have the sensor ind bug that was in 5.01 that kept the phone from sleeping properly. From my short experience with 5.1, it's gone. Hard to tell about your situation without screenshots from better battery stats and the app list.

Thank you for the info. Root is not an option on the Nexus 6 cause my sister will be using it and she's not a techie. Without root I can't properly see what keeps it awake :/ As i said, besides the screen, biggest consumers are the Android OS and Android system in Battery settings list. But they're similiar on the Note 3 too so i dont think i can get somewhere with them.
I guess i will have to wait for 5.1 and hope it is fixed as you've said. Do you know what sensor is causing the sensor ind error? Does it have anything with the Ambient display?

Do you use Microsoft Exchange services?
I mean, did you setup other e-mail accounts. Like- Outlook, hotmail .etc??
Because last time I found, that service kept my phone to always wake up..

Oh yeah it has a hotmail account set up besides gmail. I will remove the hotmail account and restart the phone at night and observe in the morning again. Thanks for the suggestion!
If it is the problem, how did you overcome the issue? Are you using browser for your exchange mail account? If so, it will be a pain not getting mails to the app :/
Made some edits on the original post. If it helps..

What is draining my battery?

I am on stock 23.2A.1.62 with root, greenify and xpose, stamima mode on.
As you can see in under pics, android OS is on the top of the chart.
Try a lot to find out but still no clue, and is is weird in my google account syncing page?
And something seems to keep my awake all the time!
Please help me to find what is draining my battery? Or is is normal for Z3C?

Looks like a weak mobile network signal could be the cause. Go to Settings > More > Mobile networks > set "Preferred network type" to "GSM only"
I am not saying its your issue, but when I turn google now " voice - ok google detection" and from any screen is on, it just keeps my phone awake 100%. I turn it off and then it updates and comes back on, same issue.
drives me nuts stock everything
Install Wakelock detector by UzumApps.
Perhaps Xposed !
I think it xposed it self that drain battery, an alpha release is unstable.
I tried it i have the same mater, a clean install without xposed and battery is normal
I think you are right, I turn off the voice detection and it seems normal now. Observe a little longer to settle.

Have you tried restarting the phone? My android services battery usage climbs that high every few days and restarting seems to clear it up.

Android OS killing battery when wifi is on

Android OS is killing my battery whenever i use wifi in my office, if i use wifi in home drain is ok. Not sure why device was awake for almost 7 hrs ?.
Any suggestions??
Theres some sort of glitch that cant be explained. Mine does the same thing with wifi at work. Apparently the phone can't handle high trafic networks or when you move around and the phone has to jump from router to router. It ends up creating a huge amount of wakelocks. Then you switch to LTE and you get drain from cellular network because its a battery hog. There doesn't seem to be any way around it as of right now.

There is a workaround, given you're rooted. I can confirm this

Did you try a factory reset and saw if the problem prevails with the stock set of apps?

Oh yeah and what's that? I'm rooted, rommed, and on the best kernel. Problem persists. And a factory reset will do nothing but waste that poor guys time.
Another thing i observed, even when wifi is off and i turned off screen..looks like device is always awake ?. I turend off wifi, location, disabled lots of apps using package disabler.... still no luck.
I am not rooted.
I haven't tried factory reset yet.
it's the wlan_rx_wake, and wlan_wake wakelocks. For me arter97 kernel has decreased the wakelocks but it doesnt eliminate them. Still better than stock. Meanwhile lets just wait for the marshmallow. The only hope.
I have the arter kernel too and honestly have more faith in him fixing it than a new touchwiz build.
Yeah..just waiting for Marshmallow. . Hoping it would fix this issue ?

I've had the same problem, and I've solved it. It's just a rogue app, and I can bet on it. After a clean install (I know it's a pain) just restore few apps at a time, till you start getting the drain again, that way, narrow down on the app(s) causing the WiFi wakelock. Does your problem persist even on a clean ROM install, with no user downloaded apps?

I'm on arter kernel, and Dr. Ketan's ROM. Greenified FB and fb messenger. With WiFi switched on the whole night, I got 2% drain in a period of 6-7 hours. Also, try disabling the Android device manager and see if that helps
Sure... tomorrow ill try factory reset and clean install... i'll report if i see any improvements

I'm sorry to hear that. Guess you're outta luck till there's an official update, then. But OP seems to have a rogue app
I have also noticed this issue. When on campus with WiFi switched on all day, android system kills my battery and keeps my phone awake constantly. But at home, this isn't an issue. It more than likely has something to do with the constant switching of routers that have the best signal. Even though I have my "Keep WiFi on during sleep" setting set to "only when plugged in" Android System still tends to keep my phone awake. Unfortunately I can't root and switch kernels because I have ATT ..hopefully Marshmallow will help.

bluetooth_pm wakelock keeping LG G4 awake

Hi, I've been trying to track down the issue with BetterBatteryStats+ and Wakelock Dectector FULL and found that the issue is with the bluetooth_pm wakelock. I've been googling about and people only mention it but nothing gets resolved. There's only one mention of it on XDA but no reply:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=63955981&postcount=29777
What makes it's annoying is that when it goes away randomly and I get to enjoy the damn Doze feature but only to have it come back randomly. And this is when bluetooth is on. I haven't not factory reset the phone and restarting the phone may or may not have temporarily fixed.
What's is the damn "bluetooth_pm" wakelock? There's not a lot of info on this wakelock and I can't use Amplify or DisableServices to reduce or get rid of outright. I hope someone has a solution this issue.
EDIT: It's a Kernel wakelock.
Sorry for bumping this again. I have still not found the reason of why it happens aside from disconnecting from my devices (I have my phone connected to my lg tone headphones, motorola headset, my car, and my android wear watch).
Is there a way to get into the kernel and just kill it manually or set a timeout setting to kill it. The only way for me to fix it is to restart my phone; I shouldn't have to restart to get rid of this annoying wakelock.
I really hope to hear a response soon. Thanks in advance.
Bumping one more time, now with logs if ANYONE is just willing to look into this and find out what's wrong: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=66119017&postcount=30423
In this post attachment, it happened again just 15 minutes ago. Please, someone has to be technical to read the logs better than what I can come up to determine what's wrong with it or provide an app to find and kill this wakelock without having to restart the bloody phone.
I know this is super old but I found out that GasBuddy of all things was causing the damn bluetooth wakelock. Not a damn clue aside some saying it uses bluetooth for location but REALLY?
Luckily, using Greenify fixed the problem
I had the exact same symptoms and phone, did the same steps and found the same thing is as you. GasBuddy for some reason causing bluetooth wakelock. Greenify, as you experience, 'cured' the problem. Interestingly, after dealing with this issue for months, after only a few hours of verifying a fix, GasBuddy updated (with new logo) and while somewhat improved the wakelock issue, it's still an issue. Unfortunately, Greenify seems to have a more difficult time hibernating the new version...
This is kind of a big bump, but I'm having the bluetooth_pm wake lock on my G6 and Google doesn't show me much except for this thread. I don't have GasBuddy on my phone. Has anyone experienced the bluetooth_pm wakelock and figured out a way to get rid of it?

I am having same issue on my Verizon g6. I lose about 10% battery per hour when screen is off. Phone wake locks through the roof.

Something constantly using data?

Hello all! New owner of the wonderful LG G6! I have a bit of a concern. I notice when I'm using wifi, the up/down arrows inside the wifi icon are always going crazy. The "down" arrow hits EVERY SINGLE second. But if I turn off wifi and just use LTE it stops.... I noticed this same exact thing on my previous phones, S7, J7 and now this. Anyone have an similar experience? I also notice that some people seem to have battery drain, I wounder if this could be the reason, as I seem to suffer the same drain. It's pretty horrible.

Something horribly wrong with the OS optimization of this phone. I always get the biggest battery drain as 'Phone Idle'. Much higher than the screen time.
This is the situation when I have even disabled most of the battery hungry apps like Google, Maps, Facebook, etc. This is really unacceptable.

after about 5 mins its already downloaded a total of 34MB.... It's not an app, it did this when I first got the phone and nothing downloaded to it yet

try installing Netguard and disable all apps that you do not want to have net access.
It does not need root.
