Perhaps you should go into your accounts and stop many of the the Google services from syncing. I only have Calendar, Contacts and Gmail on. That might help with battery life.

Make sure you read the last post, it streamlines the process, I just haven't had time to update the OP.

Why would they do that? The whole point of having a smartphone is having instantaneous access to your info and using these features. This is a known bug affecting many. Supposedly oneplus one will fix this with the next ota update.

Things running constantly so that you can have instantaneous and continuous access will drain battery-operated electronics. That's nothing unique with OPO, other smartphones, or any other electronic device which runs on a battery.

Yes it will drain your battery, but not excessively like the google services bug present in cm11s. Most people don't buy a smartphone to have everything turned off on it. My g3 has all the same things constantly active and battery is a beast on it.

Well, I posted my suggestion. If you have a better one, feel free to let the OP know.

That is a great suggestion for a temporary battery life improvement but hopefully the update coming from oneplus will resolve it permanently. I hope it does, I really like this phone but will switch over to the g3 permanently if it doesn't get fixed.

this did the trick on mine. I made this video for couple friends
just stop all the services and do immediate reboot
should be fine after

Once you reboot, the process starts again, so they are running again. Por thats TVE way it should be?.

But then franco has already fixed it in latest kernel and i have this google search performing atleat 250 wakelocks overnight and draining the battery !!!!

Yes,it have to start again but it should be fixed

put location on 'battery saving' instead of 'high accuracy'.
difference was night and day for google services wakelocks for me

Android OS causing extreme battery leak in marshmallow?

Right after I installed marshmallow I wanted to test the battery leak so I left my phone away with just wifi on to see a drop from 67% to 46%!! I made this thread to ask if there's anyone with the same problem and if so guide me to some sort of fix for this

Same problem and hear more users whith Android OS drain on Galaxy S6 on XEF and PHN firmware. Haven't found a solution yet.

I have the same issue :/ the battery drain is enormous when WiFi is on, and it shows that Android OS was staying awake for hours and using Google ridiculous amounts of battery :/
If anyone has a solution please help us..

android os is always another app which keeps your phone awake, so you could try uninstalling apps until the drain stops

Yepp I have it too. Sprint Galaxy S6 6.0.1... Android OS stay awake= 1hr 15min and using 20% of my battery!

Using MM 3.0 Rc1 XtreStoLite rom. Works awesome with hacker kernel 13.2. ???

For those having battery drain while wifi on.. I suggest-
Wifi Settings>more>keep wifi on during sleep>only while charging/never...
Hope this fixes the problem..

in the past wakelock detector was pretty good for this but you need root nowadays, there is a windows version which doesn't require root but isn't as good as the android app. I don't even know if it works on MM

Surely it works, but it shouldn't be an appropiate solution for those as me have this problem. Before MM none had to change this setting to avoid this issue.
I noted after first days from MM XEF and PHE firm the battery consumption was very good, but after some days (or maybe any app setting change) this issue appeared.

I suspect this issue depends on the connected wifi net. I need some more days to check, but I can see as battery consuption graph slope is greater on the period I am on my wifi work than on the hotel wifi where I am standing these days... has anyone experimented this?

There's no such problem with SER firmware.

Greenify with the 'extreme doze' feature works great. No battery drain whatsoever on PHN, unrooted.

Waze App

Good morning All.
So I am new to the forums so excuse my nervousness here. I have a odd question for those who already have this phone. Basically, I would like to know if the Waze app Galaxy S8+ operate fluidly? The reason that I ask is because when I had my Note 5 I would notice while I was using the app during the navigation mode it would skip as I was driving.
When I had the phone then I thought it was a firmware issue from the app or the phone it self, however that was not the case because they were both up to date at that present time.While researching I found out that I was not it was an issue with the Android OS.
I am very interested to know the answer to this thank you!

Daily use of Waze and zero issues.

I use Waze daily while on patrol. I used it on all the previous Android devices I have had and now on the S8+. I have had no issue with the production version.

That's good to hear. I have just got a S8+ and never realised that AMOLED's suffer this as I've only ever had LCD phones.
Do you do anything other than change the car colour as I guess the orange icon to the right of the screen in the app could cause problems.
Do you set it to a certain brightness etc?

I just let it run as is with auto brightness on. I'm in the same boat, this is my first AMOLED phone. I've had it about 3 months now and so far so good.

Issue with using Endomondo running app and GPS on Mi Mix 3

Hi Guys,
I have a really annoying issue while using my running app Endomondo. If i start running, i normally gets every kilometer an anouncment of the time per km and in total. Since I use my Mix 3 the announcment are pretty inaccurate! For example yesterday I run 8km, the app told me at the end it was just ~6km...don't know what is wrong. Any idea to solve the problem!?
Thanks!

How accurate is it when you review the run on the map? Is it tracking the actual path or is it hopping all over and cutting corners?

He is cutting corners, and when the GPS comesback the line is more a bee line....it seems that the mix 3 is lossing the signal!

Phone is not rooted. Tryed Endomondo for a run a few minutes ago, and what should I say, all was good with the tracking, same distance like my Galaxy S7 edge. I have changed battery savings restrictions to no restrictions and I have updated this evening to global 10.2.1.0 so don't know if the solution is because of the change in the battery settings or because of the update to the latest Miui!

aggressive background killing of apps?

Hello just want to find out if the oneplus 7 pro still has the terrible issue where background apps are killed off as soon as you leave the apps?

The phone has been released for a while now. Can you guys who have the device please comment on this please? As the aggressive killing of background apps was terrible on the oneplus 6. Looking forward to your input.

It's fine on my 8Gb model.

fine on my 8gb too, much better than my old mate 10 pro

Also don't see any problem on my 8GB model, apps aren't killed in the background. According to Developer Options my average RAM use is 4GB.

all seems good on the 6gb too

8gb let's me keep quite a few open without issue. I haven't tested the limits.

8GB, and is been good for me

I have the 6GB version and all has been good.
This is my first android after years of using iphones and it actually feels good jumping the ship with the OP 7 pro!

8GB 256GB model, apps stay open for me just fine.

No issues here on my GM1917 8/256GB.

It is aggressive but since we can now turn off battery optimization at the app level I don't have a problem with its implementation.

It is happening to me for whatsapp most of the time. Thing to note is that i used titanium backup to install whatsapp into the 7pro from another phone.
I just turned off the battery optimization to see if it is going to change something.

I see aggressive app closures on my 7pro, 6gb model. Never had this problem on 5t, the phone I switched from.
Any suggested solutions?
