Hi, since a few days ago, a battery drain started to appear, the phone is almost always awake and no deepsleep. In the settings menu it shows that Android system is responsible, and batterystats says powermanagerservice...
So where can I find this service, and investigate what went wrong all of a sudden. Didn't have such problems before, and only changes are I started to use the network localisation service(without wifi) and had viber, which i just removed.
Any ideas how to fix?

if you are rooted you can get rid of this power management thing.
you can delete the htcpowermanagement.apk/odex in system/apps.
This is the easiest thing to do. But i want to find out the reason of this sudden misbehaviour. Thanks.

strange. did you tried a factory reset?
I still hope to avoid it
I think of getting some log info, when this happens again. This morning, after unplugging the charger, just checked mail, browsing and tapatalk, and the phone remained awake. Now sleeps like a baby, but already lost 10% from this, and the cpu was stuck at 300mhz during the awake period...

Anyone out there who have issues with mediaserver draining too much battery? Last night i charged my phone till it reach 90% then i wake up and it dropped at 72%. When i checked the battery usage in settings, mediaserver is 6 hrs kept awake.. also in GSam, mediaserver is responsible with the drain. I know i've read somewhere here in One S forum about this but i couldn't find the exact thread.. does it have a fix? Thank you.

If you have viber, uninstall it. There are tricks to fix that, but are annoying. Waiting for update.

I usually get around a days worth of battery life with medium to heavy usage..
Last night i charged my phone 100% and when i woke up after 5 hours it was completely out of Battery.. I didnt use it overnight.. Any idea what could have caused this??
The phone too wasnt awake..
My phone is around 1 month old..

Could you have left something running in the background, a game, or WiFi?
Or did it even charge.... Could the cord be plugged out?

Though i would like to add that i did add a new Thyparancy Skin a couple of days ago and made a custom lock ring..
But a Skin shouldnt cause problems should it??
Because i have seen people use them without any problem whatsoever

Nothing of that sort..
I did charge it 100% and am sure of that.. Plus i wasnt playing anything and even wi-fi, gps and bluetooth were off..
In battery usage it is even showing as asleep and screen off..
faulty battery buddy it seems....I am also using the same theme as yours and the phone has 2 hrs of on screen time
Ok for you guys having battery life problems Here is what I did .My phone was dead in six hours. After doing this I am at 2% per hours no problems. Even though I have only one sync which is HTC mail on demand I did not set times within the mail app to sync you need to set those parameters to only sync once every two hours in peak hours and one every 6 hours in offpeake time. I found all this out by using better battery stats partial wakelocks and current widget I hope this helps a few people! I unplugged my phone at 8:45 AM yesterday and am at 42% right now so It is running like a champ.
I turn my g2x off when I go to bed, the battery is fully charged and 8 hours later when I turn it back on the battery is allmost empty !what is wrong here?

Quite possibly a bad battery. Your battery shouldn't drain when the phone is off.

Does it drain when the battery is removed from the phone?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA App
you should download a cm7 nightly my battery lasted from 10pm - 9am with 30% than i put it to charge
You can either do a factory reset or NVFlash CWM and flash a ROM to see if that fixes things. If not, then defective battery.
What these guys are saying is most likely, especially with that kind of drain. But also make sure you don't have any crummy apps, it apps that run when your phones off. Ex. Some weather apps run in the background and draindrain

You guys. He said that his phone was OFF while the battery lost its juice. It has NOTHING to do with what ROM, KERNEL etc etc he is using. Now for the op; simply just get a new battery and check if the problem persists.

Haha, yea. Read to fast, selective reader I guess. Thought I saw 'screen off' =)

Try the same test with the battery completely removed.
If it doesn't drain that fast - Then the phone is not shutting down properly, and most likely is the result of a nasty app.
If it does still drain that fast - Then the battery is probably faulty.

In your original post when you said you turn the phone off at night, you do mean actually turning it off right? Like shutting it down and not just turning the screen off, right? Just making sure we're all on the same page. If the phone is powered down then it can't be an app because apps can only run when you're booted into Android.

I would try to eliminate apps one by one. Freezing them with titanium backup or using better battery stats to see which apps have a lot of wakelocks. I had the same issue before.

Then its the battery. I had the problem with my g1. I would load the maps and use gps. It would say my battery is around 70% then after like 5mins the phone would get hot and then it would say i was at 30% or lower. Swap out for a new battery and it didnt do that anymore.
My g2x is kinda doing the same thing. But its a little slower. I turn the phone on in the morning 100% battery. Then use it for about an hr. (95-80%battery) put it in my pocket. Then about 2hrs later it at 40-35%. And the phone feels warm.
Also check your battery to see if it had a lump on it. If so then its a bad battery and needs to be replaced asap.
I ordered a replacement on ebay should be here by next weekend. Only $4

I had a problem like this and still do at times. Part of it was the stock kernel I was running and the other part was the fact that the phone was not fully going into the low power state it was supposed to. I now only loose about 5 to 7% in the worst cases. That is better than the 20 to 30% I was loosing before.
Im having Lot of battery drain by Google Service and I have all disabled.. Any idea?

Could it be you have latitude turned on? This used loads of battery on the phone I just had
I solved it by discharging the battery completely, then I did wipe battery stats and then i re-charged it. now after 6 hours its 94%
What's the typical battery time for the One S? I got mine a few days ago and it just seems like the battery drains away way too quickly than what I read on reviews. 14 minutes in and already at 83%? Yet all I did was use the 3G connection. But my screen consumption is 89% yet I have brightness at below half way, probably 40%. How is any of this possible?! I've got Google's Location service and Location and Google search options turned on, could this be it?
I haven't had the opportunity to go at it for the full day, so that's what I'm gonna do today and see how it goes.
Take a look at this (which will grow over time):

I have been so impressed with the battery life on the N5 however the last 2 weeks my battery is dropping 50% in less than 4 hours. If I reboot my phone it fixes this and drops about 10% - 15% in 4 hours.
I thought it must be an app I am opening that is constantly running in the background but can't see anything obvious.
Anybody got any suggestions or advice? I have stopped almost all apps and uninstalled the majority. I don't want to restore factory defaults if I can help it.
Have you checked Gsam? Mine sometimes does that, and the culprit normally is my kernel keeping the phone awake for whatever reason, and a reboot solves it. Not sure why though

Get betterbatterystats and see what your wake locks are.
I have gsam but not really sure what to look for?

I'm not familiar with that. Does it tell you what your partial and kernel wake locks are?
If you go to App Usage it will give you a breakdown of what apps are using your battery

I have this exact same problem. I normally have to reboot my phone when I disconnect from the wireless charger. I don't think that's always the cause tho. I would love to install batterbatterystats but you need root am I'm really trying to not go down that road anymore.

I think It's the dialer. I had this problem in 4.1.1 where it would constantly be looking at my address book in exchange.
In my case, Gsam points to the Kernel being the issue. I'm trying out a different kernel, and haven't experienced the same issue.

hello,
yesterday i installed the official 4.4.2 rom from poland on my belgium/luxemburg note 3. i performed a factory reset to be sure.
today my battery was hell. just a half an hour ago my battery drained from 15% to 1% in 15 min with just sitting in my pocket turned off and warm.
i checked my battery stats and my exchange is using a lot of it.
are there other who have the same problem and maybe have a solution?

Hi
1- Install wakelockdetector and see which program has high battery usage ...
2- stop exchange service and disable it
