Rarely going into deep sleep. - HTC Sensation

Hey, I recently installed paranoid android v20, (my first custom rom on this phone) and I'm noticing that my phone isn't entering deep sleep very often. Last night I rebooted to refresh everything and get fresh numbers. I plugged it in and put it in airplane mode. And this morning it showed 5 hours in 192mhz and only 1 1/2 hours in deep sleep. (I only slept for 6 1/2) any idea what I can do to increase the use of deep sleep?
More detail: I have my cpu set to 1350mhz max - 192mhz min, with interactive governor, using Kernel tuner.

You can go to settings, developers options, and make sure that " stay awake" is not checked. Because if checked it will prevent device from sleeping. Also check permissions on your installed apps and make sure they don't say prevent phone from sleeping. You can also try the app from the market called " Deep sleep battery saver " it puts the device into deep sleep when not in use. I think this will be helpful for you! Best wishes and hope I've helped you!!

Stay awake is off. And I tried that app before and I'm not sure if it worked. But I'll try it again. And how would I find out which apps have "prevent phone from sleeping" other then checking each app one by one? And, other then uninstalling, how would I disable it? Thanks.

You could install BetterBatteryStates.
It monitors 'wakelocks' which keeps the phone awake. You might find the app/settings to blame.

I remember now why deep sleep battery saver doesn't work for me. It turns off wifi at home, yet I need wifi for groove ip phone calls. So can't use it. I'll check out better battery stats, maybe that'll fix it. Thanks.

Okay, last night I charged my phone and left it unplugged with better battery stats monitoring. This morning I look and find a 22% drain after 10 hours, 9 hours in deep sleep, 1 hour awake. I checked and 44% of partial wake locks was Google maps. Why? Am I being tracked? Sheesh! So I used link to SD to freeze it until I need to use it. (which isn't to often as I primarily use Waze for navigation, maps is mainly for bus directions.) hopefully that will increase my battery life. Thanks!

Yeah okay, maps wasnt the problem its googles location service thats always checking where i am. So I disabled it. Hopefully that will fix the problem.

I have a similar problem, that is when I look at battery status plot under settings sometimes I see that the phone NEVER goes into sleep mode (always awake).
I installed BetterBatteryStatus and I see a lot of time spent under "partial wakelocks": mainly AlarmManager and Event Log Service. Any hint on how to solve?
Thank you in advance.

The guy who made the app is very responsive and a lot of the people there will help you. so, make a dump of your partial wake locks and submit it in the thread. you should also read through it a bit to understand others problems which may be similar to yours. see thread link below.

Do you know what your time since charged was? (I wish it would display total time since charged there...) The "since charged" definition seems weird and hasn't reset on my phone in ages... I've tended to use "since last unplugged".
Pandora appears to be your #1 wakelocker. eBay mobile seems to be pretty bad too.
NetworkLocation wakelocking can be eliminated by unchecking all of the location features in Settings except for when you want network location/GPS.

I assume you were listening to Pandora during that time, in which case, that wakelock is normal. Playing music from your device will also hold a wakelock when the screen is off. If you weren't listening to Pandora at all, then something is wrong.
Whoa. Why the heck is eBay holding that wakelock . Check your notification settings and if it's still holding it, clear its data and try again. Otherwise, I'd uninstall it. I always use the browser to access eBay anyway.

No. In the device settings, turn GPS off until you need it and leave network location checked/enabled. Go into Fancy Widget under weather settings and UNcheck/disable GPS location (GPS is unnecessary for weather updates), verify that network location is checked. Then, I would recommend changing your refresh settings (to update less frequently). I'd bet you have it set to update more frequently than an hour. I also use Fancy Widget and mine is set to 3 hours. This should take care of your network location wakelock (unless another app is also updating with network location).
BTW if Wifi is on but not connected, in Froyo it seems to scan way too often regardless of build.prop setting. Netloc should wakelock less if wifi is off.

I installed BetterBatteryStats because I was curious as to why my phone always seemed to drain so quickly. I am rooted and running infused 1.5.3. I have very few widgets, one that actually accesses anything, and don't do much but surf the net or the forums in the morning. I would unplug it at 6:30 and go to work. By about 8 or so I would already be at 90% or less. That was me hardly using it. Well I hope I got my answer. Apparently Beautiful Widgets was KILLING me on the wakelocks! I wish I took a picture of it before I uninstalled it but jesus it was bad! Thanks for the good info I'm gonna keep an eye on it and see how it does.
Oh funny thing is, I was not even running Beautiful Widgets! I use Fancy Widget instead lol.

No, slow charge is a few other things. ALL android phones wakelock when charging.
The phone shouldn't count CPU/screen/etc usage against charge current at all but it does. It seems to do it less so on GB. Still does it, but the spikes seem lower even if I crank stability test. Gonna be a while before I can test a navigation run.
Seems like on GB, difference between screen off and running stability test with screen on is about 200 mA. Haven't tested in that much detail on froyo. Another way of putting that - putting the screen on and cranking CPU will reduce charge rate by at least 1/3 of the 600 mA charge limit.

Battery monitor widget or current widget?

Well that's really the question, what's the best battery usage consumption application. I don't want to see battery % remaining but -mA used, especially while the device sleeps.
My two choices are Battery monitor widget or current widget but I'm happy to consider another product. I've read concerns in the forum that battery monitor widget reports numbers too low.
I use LBC Rom and the latest radio. But, I'd prefer it if this thread didn't turn into a custom rom battery usage comparison thread.
While sleeping Battery monitor widget reports -5mA to -7mA on my device and near identical figures on my wife's stock (v 1.30) with old radio. Where as with current widget I see -10mA to -12mA?
Has anyone tried adjusting the battery monitor widget-> monitoring-> mA retrieval method Setting? If so what setting do you use/recommend?
EDIT: Normally use Auto but tried HTC devices and all that was reported was a stream of 0mA
Also there is an option in current widget-> log options-> force log in sleep mode do people use this? I do. Does either application have any other must have options that I may be missing?
Many thanks for your input....

you are supposed to get around 5ma but many people using the desire S didn't get anything below 10ma ,so maybe this problem got fixed in the newer devices?
@ben battery monitor widget shows the battery left in mv
& i am unable to get anything below 10ma on any ROM and radio i use
ill give current widget a try
I've tried both, my Battery Monitor Widget never goes below 14mA when idle, and Current Widget never goes below 28mA. It seems Current Widget shows twice the amount of BMW.

Yes that's what I meant. During sleep, the lowest value I saw on BMW was 14 and the lowest I seen on Current Widget is 28, i.e. double.

My Evo seems to log just fine while sleep without it. I tried enabling this and notice no difference. I guess it's to be used if your device has trouble logging while sleep.

[Q] What is eating up my battery?

Ok so yesterday and today my battery has been atrocious. 5 hours on IDLE and it went from 100 to 55%. What the hell? Under battery usage it says android OS ~23%, clock ~18% and android system ~22% as the top 3.
Get the app betterbatterystats and see what was keeping your phone awake. It was most likely a deep sleep issue. I would also suggest cpu spy. Goodluck

as ckck says, this app will help you narrow down the problem as to which app it is. Its a paid app but a free dev version is available here on xda. CPUSpy as he also mentioned is an app to check whether or not your phone is going into deep sleep. If it's not, an app is definately keeping it awake, which is your problem.
If you're running the ICS leak go to Settings->Sound and uncheck "Touch sounds" and "Screen lock sound". I did this and it tripled my battery life.

I've seen in a lot of topics people asking about this but I have never seen a direct answer. Direct your attention to the screen shots.
Is there anything I can freeze in TiBU? I have my DS battery saver to slumber so anytime I lock my phone it goes to deep sleep right away.
Granted my battery life is phenomenal but I feel like it could be better.

[Q] Battery drains extremely fast PLZ HELP!

My battery drains so fast it's not even funny. I went to sleep at 11PM with battery on 85% I woke up at 8AM and phone was totally discharged. I can't show you my bbs screen right now because I have no stats on it right now but it looks like AudioOut_2 does it It was saying 10%/h so yea.
Is there a fix for it someone plz help i used greenify to hibernate powerAMP i freezed play music i have no other music players i didn't use youtube
or any app making sounds also i found something called sound fx so i disabled it but firstly this was like 3%/h but now its 10%/h and that is not what anyone would like to see. If there is some fix other than wipeing everything and reflashing rom i would be really happy.
I have huawei u8850 cm 10.1, 16gb kingston sdcard,
Hit the wrong button first of all you have something that is out of control my first suggestion is to get an app from the play store like CPU spy or similar and run it for a day to see what is causing the drain I would almost bet that you have a rouge app that is doing this. If you restored any thing with data this is where I would start

What kernel do u use?
Maybe it's the kernel.:angel:
I don't think it's kernel because i have no big kernel wakelocks but i could be wrong. also there was a new update for my rom which said it has battery fix but when i flashed my phone never gone to deep sleep when i looked to kernel wakelocks in that rom there was 1 wakelock that was never letting my phone sleep. so i tried searching for solution to my biggest wakelock which is gtalk_async_con_com.google.android.gsf.gtalkservice.androidendpoint and connectivity service which both said about an hour. should i flash the new rom and tell you what was the biggest wakelock?

So i flashed the new version of the rom and 1 kernel wakelock called msm_serial_hs_dma is preventing my phon from deep sleep my phone is on 2 hours and it's preventing my phone from sleep 2 hours. I tried to find fix but only thing i found was this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1786981. And i have no idea what the heck did i read there.so yes it's something with kernel but no other person was saying the same thing as me. They say it really fixed they're battery life. but the battery life I have now is like 4% an hour it's not really that bad but no that good. Also people say the wakelock is somthing with bluetooth but i didn't turn on bluetooth a long time now.

Did you consider changing the battery? I had the same issue with my HTC and I solved it by changing the battery
Ok firstly i told before that i have bbs and there is this kernel wakelock called msm_serial_hs_dma that is waking my phone about 95% of the time. And my battery is built-in my phone . but i calibrated my battery and i hope it will get better. Also thanks everyone for trying to help me.
