Processes kill battery... - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Sometimes I have processes (see screen shots) that just eat my battery even though I force closed all programs. Only a restart seems to solve it.
Does someone have the same problem?

If your media server is that high you most likely have a corrupt file on your sdcard. The scanner hits a bad file and gets stuck on it. It's been a known issue with it for a long time. Could be a music file or a photo. To check photo's connect to an PC and look for thumbnails that won't generate. For music pull it all off and see if the service goes back to normal.

Holy Jeeebus.....I think I finally solved my battery problem. Yours too??

TL: DR - Use Rescan Media, win.
So, I think that I've finally found the source of my constant stress regarding the battery life of my beautiful Samsung Captivate SGH-i897.
I know that a good majority of you have just rolled your eyes in disbelief, or just thought to yourself, "Great....another one of these threads".
If it helps one person get their battery life under control, then roll away.
I've had the phone for about 2-3 months and I've been active on these boards since a few days after getting it.
I've recalibrated, done the on / off / on / off trick, battery stats delete, deleted battery info from CWM, tried a second battery, used battery monitors on the phone, turned off wi-fi, turned off auto-synch, turned off bluetooth, lowered display brightness, and everything else I could think of to conserve juice.
Yesterday afternoon, I downloaded OSMonitor from the market in an effort to try another app in a long line of failures.
Nothing seemed out of the ordinary so I was going to give up hope.
While installed, I had clicked on the box to monitor the app in the notification bar.
I noticed that I would have times where the CPU was being maxed but nothing strange was being reported in OSMonitor.
And then it hit me.....
The entire time I'm watching the OSMonitor, I'm being distracted by the media scanner.
It's running over and over and over and over and over.
When the screen shuts off after 30 seconds, it comes back on, the media scanner runs.
When I update something from the market, the media scanner runs.
When I close a program, the media scanner runs.
It is running constantly and maxing my CPU to 100%.
It finishes fairly quickly, (I have 9.4GB / 13GB available on internal and hardly anything used on my 4GB external SD card) but it just KEEPS....ON.....RUNNING.
I do a quick search, stumble upon the .nomedia file trick from XDA archives, and VOILA ! ! ! !
I'm losing about only one half of one percent per hour while it sits on standby, where I would sometimes lose 10-11% per hour, when the phone isn't even being used by me.
I went to bed last night with 48% at around 3:30am.
It is approx. 11 hours later right now.
I've made approx. 8-10 calls, checked my email a few dozen times, and mostly just let the phone sit.
I'm sitting at 39%.
Previous to doing this, I would have lost that amount in one hour.
So, for anyone who has a phone that is losing battery life like it's going out of style, I highly recommend doing the .nomedia fix.
I did mine using ES Explorer and Super Manager.
Go into your root folder and add a file named .nomedia, then go into your external SD folder and do the exact same thing.
If you do not want to do it this way, you can go the easy route and add a program called Rescan Media that does it for you.

Hopefully this helps at least one lost soul, I'm so happy to see my phone behave more along the lines of what my expectations were and not have to be fully charged 2 times per day.
For the record, I've tried the following ROM's for the Cappy:
Perception
Phoenix
Assonance
Darkytt3r's port of Darky's ROM
Stock ROM (ODIN Rooted)
Cognition
And the following kernels:
Glitterballs
SpeedMod
SetiroN
Xcalibur
Will this not cause the media scanner to not pick up anything at all then?
IE no custom ringtones/msg alerts, nothing displayed in gallery, playlists wont work with the music player....
Or will it run media scanner selectively instead of all the time?
The only time I notice media scanner running is after rebooting the phone... yet I'm still only getting about 9-10 hours on a full charge with very conservative use.

So... exactly what did you do to solve the problem? can you describe how do you do the .nomedia fix?? I have exactly the same issue..
Hm, I haven't experienced that bad of a battery drain, but I installed the market app even though it said 2.2... maybe this will make my battery life better! Thanks for the tip.

When you say the media scanner runs when doing all of these actions, does the Media Scanning icon show in the notification bar? If so, then I think it's just an issue with your phone cause I don't think that happens with anyone else's phone.
Unless you are saying that the media scanner runs in the background secretly after every action and there is no icon in the notification bar or anything? If so, I think you can be on to something.

You could just run Media Scanner manually. SwitchPro even gives you a button to initiate it. The only time Media Scanner runs automatically for me is when the phone boots (and probably some other infrequent times that I can't remember) so disabling automatic media scanning isn't much of a loss at all for me.

I'm curious of the same thing. I've only seen the media scanner run when I restart or disconnect my SD card from my computer.

I'll be nice... see the quoted paragraph that was in your quote?
Minlee, no need to quote an entire post, especially when you aren't responding to something in it directly.
As others have said, I only ever see Media Scanning in the Notification bar when I do a reboot. If it runs at other times it is transparent to the phone.
This is probably an issue specific to myself and a few others.
Someone above asked me if I saw a lot of activity in the background or if I actually saw the "Media Scanning" icon pop up in my notification bar.
The answer is that I saw the icon pop up and then watched it scan, over and over and over, all day long, dozens....if not hundreds of times.
That little fix, coupled with the battery calibration that I've done a few times, along with getting rid of some of the resource hogs that run in the background (Do I reeeeally need Google Maps to run 23 hours out of the day???) has given my Captivate new life.

Yeah, I've never seen that kind of behavior. I only see the scanning activity when I first boot and when I do something like take a picture or a screen shot.

Mediaserver issues...

So in my glallery, some of my images have doubled, and in my music list for selecting ringstones and such, it has tripled some of the songs, but only one of them works. Mediaserver has 48% percent on my battery drain and its taking more power than my screen is! Anyone know whats up with this?
I'm running AOKPS Alpha 2, but I noticed it was doing it last night when I was still on the Alpha.
I use quicpic for my pictures....no issues
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alensw.PicFolder
And google play for my music
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.music
This is actual issue with the media scanner. From what I've read it's an issue that can happen from a few things. I seem to have fixed it for now, I removed all the media files that were acting up. and it's gone back to it's normal amount of battery usage. I may just format my sdcard, then reinstall the ROM again

Media Storage always running.

I've got a SGS running ICS. But for some unknown reason I've noticed that media storage is always running in the background making the CPU run at max clock all the time, which is killing the battery.
I think it might be unable to scan everything for some reason as quite alot of my photos are missing from my gallery.
Clearing the data of media storage stops it running, but I lose all the photos from the gallery and all notifications. I can use an app called Scanmedia to get all the notifications back, and only some of the photos for some reason. But media storage continues to run in background draining my battery.
Like I said earlier I think it might be a scanning bug. Unable to scan all media, so it doesn't stop scanning. That's just my guess though.
How can I fix this?

Battery Saving tips? Help!?

I have the droid ultra and was wondering how I could get some extra juice out of my phone? Any help would be appreciated!

1. Turn off Battery Saver under Settings/Battery. This is false hope and more of a placebo. It usually kicks on when you are already really low on battery and it usually just down clocks your CPU and can make your phone sluggish.
2. Turn off Automatic Brightness under Settings/Display/Brightness. When the sensor on your phone reads the light around you, it likes to shift the brightness on your phone from really high to really low. This effects your battery. Turn that option off and leave your phone on half to 1/4 max brightness. 1/2 is usually just fine. You will get used to this brightness.
3. Turn off Location Access. This is probably one the biggest battery wasters out there and you don't need it running all the time. It is located under Settings/Location Access. Turn off or uncheck everything here. If a program needs or wants it on, it will request it when you are using that app. Most of the time it is usually for Google Maps. As you can tell, this also turns off GPS.
4. Let your phone sleep, but not too soon/long! Under Settings/Display click on sleep and change it to 1 or 2 minutes(preferred). Nothing shorter, nothing longer. Nothing longer because if you forget to turn off your screen, you don't want it sitting there for 5
minutes wasting away. Nothing shorter because turning it back on after 15 seconds because you were thinking will only cause the screen to demand more power to get it restarted, thus draining battery.
5. Facebook = Battery Killer. I get it, you love Facebook. That is ok, but your battery doesn't. There is hope though! Open the Facebook app and slide your finger from the left side of the screen to the right side of the screen. Now go all the way down to "App
Settings" and make these changes. #1 Refresh Interval = Never: This will prevent it from waking up your phone/battery and refreshing automatically when the phone is off. When you launch the app, it does this for you, so why have it do it when you are
working/sleeping? Plus you can always manually do this by pulling down on your News Feed. #2 Turn off Messenger location services. You don't really need this on. it likes to activate your GPS(battery hog) and let people know which city you sent that post/message from. Unless you care that people know you are in Butt****, Ohio, you should have this off.
6. Streaming Music kills battery. Do you have 80gb of songs at home on your computer? Then why do you stream Pandora all day? You having unlimited data is not a good excuse. If you can, put all those songs on your SD card/phone and listen to them using Google Play Music app. Buy a bigger SD card if you have to, they are not that expensive. Or just ask Santa.
7. Turn off vibrate on touch/haptic feedback. Usually located under Settings/Sound. That little motor that tickles your finger tips when you touch the screen actually uses a good amount of power. If you are really looking to get the most out of your battery, turn this off. I leave it on because I could always go for a finger tip tickle.
You don't have to use all of those, you can pick and choose if you like. I do. I hope it helps you out. Let me know.
Fun Fact: The takes more power to show the color blue on your screen than any other color.

Yeah, well, you need location services for Google Maps. It's nothing something discrete for just one application. (Meaning, if you turn off location services globally, it turns it off for everything. If you turn it on, you can go into individual apps and see if you can turn off location.) However, you can go into Google Now, menu on the bottom right, settings, Privacy & accounts, Google location settings, and turn off location reporting and location history - unless you really want that in Google Now.

1 - Agreed.
2 - This is mostly preference and will not that huge of effect on your battery. Having the display on the brightest setting will always drain more than the lowest setting, but the auto-brightness changing does not hurt the battery, it's when it sets the brightness high that it does. I have auto-brightness set and I'm doing pretty good.
3 - Location services are only accessed and turned on when requested. For example, when you open maps, or have geotagging enabled on the camera. Just leaving it enabled in general will not be that big a deal.
4 - Mostly preference, but setting it too long can have more detrimental effects than just battery usage. For example: forgetting to lock the phone and shoving it in your pocket while the display is still on can result in apps opening or calls being made.
5 - While you're at it, just quit facebook altogether But seriously, the more "social" apps you have running, the more you have apps waking up the phone and hitting data in the background. Instant messaging can cause battery drain as well. As for me and facebook, I do not have an account at all, so I don't use it, and can't really say if it really is a drain on its own.
6 - Agreed. Either put music on your phone or use the caching available in various services like Spotify. I'm a Spotify premium subscriber and it's totally worth it.
7 - This will have a negligible impact on your battery.
I'll add this: If you're into figuring out what's causing battery drain, install an app that monitors wakelocks. I use Wakelock Detector. Wakelocks are going to be your idle time battery killers and apps that abuse them will cause excessive drain. I'm sitting at 8% awake right now and my battery easily lasts the entire day with around half battery remaining on my Mini. You can find apps to blame for battery drain with an app like this easier than an app that just monitors battery usage.

AudioMix Wakelock on CM11S

I'm using a OnePlus One with CM11S, and have been experiencing wakelocks from AudioMix, both on stock kernel and on franco's kernel.
Wakelock Detector says it's from the "1013" process, which I'm not sure what it is (seems to be a system process though).
The wakelocks are pretty long, currently for example I'm on 83% battery with AudioMix wakelocks of 20m43s, which is about 13% of the time the device has been unplugged (not to mentioned when the screen was off, which is only part of that time).
I have no clue where this might be coming from or how to stop it, and would appreciate any help on this.
Bump.

You can track the process down using the /proc folder... Just use ES File Explorer and go to /proc/1013/cmdline while the process is still running with that number. That should tell you the command that started the process.

Actually, there's no such folder as "1013" in /proc.
I did find a "1013" folder in /proc/uid_stat/ but it only has two files in it:
- tcp_rcv
- tcp_snd

That's odd, since I keep seeing that AudioMix (which is under 1013) is getting more and more wakelocks every now and then when I check in WakelockDetector.
Any suggestions maybe? It's adding up by the second (even if the screen is on and I refresh the wakelock counter goes up).
definitely suffering from this same exact Wakelock also. Still haven't been able to pin down the culprit...working on it though hopefully I'll find it.
I believe the audiomix wakelock is music; been playing music with the screen of or using syncing services?

Only while charging.
Also, the wakelock counter for AudioMix keeps going up by the second, even when the screen is on (and whilst I'm not listening to music), so I'm not sure it's that (or at least, that's not all it does).
As for syncing services, what do you mean? Like Dropbox sync? Or Google sync?
My Google account is synced across devices (obviously), and I do have Dropbox uploading my phone's camera photos, but I didn't take any new pictures lately. When I do see it's uploading photos, there's another wakelock (I can't remember its name exactly, but it contains "Dropbox" in the name, so that would be easy to identify, and also makes sense to have it keeping the device awake when uploading photos).
same problem here....
Uncheck touch sounds and screen lock sound in settings. It for me fixed the problem.

I just tried it for about a day and a half, but it didn't fix it. Still getting about 30-50 minutes of wakelocks from AudioMix per charge.
I'm also facing this issue. Do you guys use PowerAMP to listen to music? I don't know why I think at PowerAMP, but I've had this issue also with my old Nexus 5 (now I'm on a OnePlus ONE), and NEVER found a solution. I really don't know what to do. That's even more strange thinking that some days ago I did not noticed this problem, now apparently random it started draining battery..
Ok just tried with some basic tests:
tried disabling sound at pressure on screen and lockscreen sound, checking with BBB it seems it's stopped now. Also it seems to stop using vibration instead sounds. Every time the phone emits a sound (coming from a pressure on the screen, such as the BBB refresh button, or any other sound) this wakelock happens for about 3-4 seconds, then, keeping refreshing BBB statistics it seems to stop. With vibration mode and without sound at pressure on screen this wakelock seems to be ok. But if I turn on the sound checking every checkbox in Audio settings, every time I refresh with BBB the phone emits a sound, and in fact this wakelock never ends and keeps going.
Now what I'm asking is why this happens randomly to someone and why some others don't face this problem. Also because for me started 2-3 days ago, but I always checked every checkbox in Audio Settings.
having this problem too, its waking my device a hell of a lot.

I use PowerAMP as well, but AudioMix is keeping my device awake even on days where I don't use PowerAMP at all. However, it might have a service running in the background, so it may still be it.
I'll have to try and freeze it and give another player a try to see if this stops.
