Poor battery life on TeamEOS Wingray

I've been running TeamEOS on my Xoom for quite some time, and it's been great. However, recently the device's battery life has become incredibly poor. For example, today my Xoom has been unplugged for 8 hours 47 minutes, without being used at all, and the battery is at 61%.
Previously, the Battery usage settings view was showing the Wi-Fi in use all day, but today I turned Wi-Fi off and it is still the same. The 'GPS on' line shows one small section of blue (about 10 minutes) and the 'Awake' line shows a few times it has been awake, maybe half an hour in total.
I installed BetterBatteryStats and the longest Kernel Wakelock is PowerManagerService, for 2m 2s, the longest Partial Wakelock is ConnectivityService at 57s.
Under 'Other' it shows that the device was in Deep Sleep for 8h 39m.
Another odd thing is that when I first unplug the device, I get a kernel wakelock on cpcap_otg. If I don't do anything the battery drains even faster than it did today (it never goes into Deep Sleep), but if I plug in my USB card reader (without a card), and then unplug it again, that wakelock doesn't happen again, extending the battery life slightly.
I have a Wingray Xoom (MZ604), and I currently have TeamEOS nightly 114 installed. I have tried various nightlies, back as far as 90, and have also done a factory reset, to no avail. I haven't yet tried going back to Honeycomb, although maybe I should just to check, as it certainly used to work fine under TeamEOS 1.0.
Does anyone know anything else I can try to do to fix this?

Battery life seems to be so device specific that it's really difficult to diagnose, tho you seem to be looking in the right places. I'm on 114 as well and my battery life is fine...normal for my device, depending on use. It is said that you need to let a new rom install settle a bit, and I've been told to flash a new rom with a full charge...other than that, I don't know.

It could be some app you recently installed that wakes up your device wifi and consume battery. To diagnose more, get betterbatterystat app.

He said that is the app he is using. I'm sure, as you said, it is an app causing either wakelock or something syncing in background.

Are you syncing Facebook? I uninstalled the app a long time ago and battery life went up.

Tried wipe battery data in recovery? That may fix your battery issues.

kinda old thread, but if you are still facing battery problems, try this.
go to settings/wifi/advanced and choose never for "keep wifi on during sleep"
I had the exact same problem and it turned out that the device gets a wakeup call from the wifi router every now and then, which keeps it from entering deep sleep mode, resulting in horrible battery stats, running dry after about 1,5 days of just laying around.
Since I did the setting change, my xoom lasts for almost 1,5 weeks at light to medium use (mainly browsing and email) now

true, but don't forget that will also kill your apps from keeping their state up to date. email push won't work anymore. it's a matter of what you want, i personally rely on the phone for incoming mail and use the xoom for reading with disabled wifi during standby. it's the best of both worlds, instang notification and long battery.

oh, of course you´re right.
I didn´t thought that this could be an issue for other people.
Like you, I get my mails on phone and work on them on tablet.
Like you said,best of both worlds and feels so natural
But I still say, if you can sacrifice the "always-up-to-date" satus on your tab, just do it cause the battery uptime afterwards will be totaly awesome.

Low signal battery drain

Hey all, firstly I'm running stock everything on my nexus 5. 5.0.1 with stock kernel and root. Using twrp however for recovery.
When I go to work I get really bad signal and my battery usually drains away (that's understandable) however when I leave work and head home to better coverage the phone stays hot (36°c) and continues to drain with "android os" having a large awake time. I usually fix this by restarting the phone.
I would like to know if there is any other way to fix this without a reboot? Sometimes it happens sometimes it doesn't, but it happens more often than not with the phone draining 10-20% per hour and staying continuously warm @ 35-36°C during idle.
Thanks in advance !

I assume by "36C" you mean battery temperature - I would not ever even take battery temperature into any sort of consideration at all unless it goes above 60-70C. Keep in mind there are also throttles - when the battery reaches a certain temperature and when the CPU reaches certain temperatures, the CPU clock rate is throttled to reduce heat - the CPU will almost always throttle before the battery has a chance to even reach near it's throttle temperatures. Keeping an eye on the battery temperature is ultimately pointless as it is meaningless unless you know you have a physical battery issue, in which case you should be replacing it immediately anyways.
Of course, if your signal is low then your signal is low and there isn't much you can do about that, but since you have root access, I recommend visiting the stickied battery life help thread and posting the recommended screenshots. Saying that your battery is "hot" and "Android OS has a large awake time" doesn't say much if anything at all.

It may be something using data. The stock battery stats will tell you how long the mobile radio/data was active I believe. If location is on, it may be something using it to update it (probably a Google service).
Another trick that seems to help is to delete the cache. IDK why but the phone seems to run hot until you do this if you OTA upgrade from KK.

Hmm, I have gsam installed and during when the problem occurs, the android OS awake time corresponds to high kernel wake lock. Since I'm off work today the problem hasn't occurred so I can't post screenshots. But even when it does the battery page or gsam or anything doesn't show anything unusual except high awake. I dont have Better battery stats anymore so I can't get a better idea beside what gsam offers me. But since the battery idles at a higher temperature than normal I suspect its because something is running in the background keeping it awake and constantly using data or something. And I don't have gps on.
I've also come fresh from 5.0 with a full wipe before installing via twrp. I never ota on my nexus 5.

Android System huge battery drain

Does anyone else have the issue where android system is consuming 35+% of the battery? Looking at the stats it seems like one of the bundled services is keeping the radio on for 14/18hrs its been on.

Have the same isssue
Yeah, I'm having this issue too. Android System is consuming HUGE amounts of battery for me.

Thought I was the only one but glad that's not true! Still got good battery stats with the android system drain nonetheless.

Charged mine to full last night right before hitting the sack.
Woke up 7½ hours later and it had consumed 33% of the battery just sitting doing nothing bar getting email & polling (presumably) for Facebook updates.
And that was with Power Saving enabled. Bit disappointing, hoping when I disable auto-sync that it'll kill the drain.

There's lots of services running under Android Systems disable the ones u don't use, I have disabled some got better battery life, still testing some others...

The hardware on the phone is great, but touchwhiz drives me up the wall. I'll be happy if and when we get anything AOSP based, CM being the holy grail. Nice to know I'm not the only one getting this battery drain. I've disabled pretty much everything that's able to be disabled, as all I use is google services.

Same problem here.... Huge Android System battery drains.

I've played around with several things, and as of yet I haven't gotten it to stop other than turning off WiFi. Anyone found a fix?

Mine's more a combo of Android System and Google Services... both take up a majority of my usage... Services typically being a bit more.

Why are there two android systems? wtf...
Is there any way to reduce cell standby?

Same sh*t here. Went to bed last night fully charged, and 7-8 hours later, wake up with 23% of my battery gone.
I'm starting to wonder if moving away from the Nexus line was a mistake. I started running again and the N6 was just too big to lug along with me, on arm or in a waste band, so I decided to try Samsung.

Just got my S6 and I noticed this right away. Last charge I had 2:42 of SOT and "Android Systems" used 47% of the battery. I was just watching Netflix and YouTube mostly. My overnight drain is also quite high, about 1% every 30-40 minutes of standby.
Is that normal for most S6 owners?

To all:
Turn off VoLTE, turn off WiFi calling, install CPU Spy, ensure your phone is going into deep sleep. If it isn't, flash the stock recovery with Flashify, wipe the cache with it, then flash TWRP back with Flashify.
Post your results.

This is for everyone. If you haven't flash TWRP, then simply wipe the cache with stock recovery.
I just assumed most people would have TWRP flashed, my bad.

I am guessing that that this is an Android problem as the Galaxy S6 Edge has the same problem with battery drains.

I'm not rooted and I don't plan on doing so. I'm not sure of any other options. I unplugged it last night an let it sleep. Android system used about 14% of the battery. And I lost 20% charge. Cpu run time was 38 minutes too. and I never even woke it up post unplugging it.

I believe this Battery Drain Issue is a Lollipop issue. Was haing it with my One Plus One, I fixed it by going into privacy Guard, and going to Google Play Services and not allowing it to stay awake, and start by itself.
Ill find the actual thread and post it, same issues happening with a lot of phones using lollipop

Battery drain on a new device = bad flash (very common on android devices, first run)
1 wipe the devices and start it again from factory problem should go away. (at least the excessive drain anyway)
2 Ensure you have updated the Samsung Services app (this was responsible for most if not all battery drain issues if you reset your device)
3. Turn the bloody Screen brightness down and turn off Adaptive display (way way way too much battery drain using them)
4. LTE off and Cell data off if you on wifi, your wasting battery power communicating with cell sites you arnt using, the weaker the signal the more power you will drain for no benefit
6. GPS / Loc data off unless you need it even then wifi / AGPS is usually more than accurate, remember GPS + poor sky visibility = more power used to get a loc.
5 NEVER measure battery life for the first 24 hours way too much stuff syncing and updating to measure with any accuracy.
I get a solid 2 days out of the S6 with mixed use and a screen on time of 2:30 could get that upto 3 hours but i have a hearthstone addiction

As mentioned above, I highly recommend wiping the cache, even when not rooted.
Also, worst comes to worse, i'd completely redo the phone from scratch via the Smart Switch software samsung provide.

Phone idle using a lot of battery?

Sorry if the question has been answered before but does anyone else get a lot of battery drain due to 'phone idle'. I'm unsure whether if deep sleep not working or what but have never had this problem with any other phones I have had.

Yes, I'm definitely experiencing the same problem. I left the phone overnight and it lost almost 7% which is a lot compared to my old Z1 (only 1-2%). Other time is also similar. Sometimes, it feels like it as if actively using the phone actually uses less power than leaving it idle. Looking at the battery chart seems normal but the phone actually discharges fast on standby (sometimes I lost 25% after just 4-5 hours standby) I'm really want to know if others experience this as well and how to fix.

Yes I'm having the same problem.. Phone idle taking more drain than screen right now..
It's deffo a bug with this 7.0 update.. Hopefully it gets fixed in next update..

My battery sucks now after the Nougat update! Drains really quickly on standby. I even turned WiFi scanning off but it didn't seem to help

I am facing the same issue too
Phone idle appears at the top of the list, claiming 135 mah
While my screen states its using 49 mah

Similarly and annoyingly. Since Nougat my phone barely deep sleeps.
My phone was deep sleeping amazingly on mm. But now it barely deep sleeps. Ridiculous update which now requires me to perform a clean full wipe install of Nougat. Which currently I have no time for, hence my battery dies ridiculously fast. Annoying and not what I was expecting, this removed my excitement away from receiving the new Nougat update and instead am left with work to do to get this one back to par.
This has happened to me before on previous Sony phones when installing new ota updates. Clearly something Sony is good at.
For the OP - this is one of the best apps to determine CPU behaviour, simple and to the point. Particularly scroll to the bottom to obtain how well or not the phone deep sleeps.

Since upgrading via OTA to Nougat my device barely deep sleeps, rather it sits at 307mhz when idle. Battery gone to sh!t. Forced to do a factory reset fresh installation (when I get enough time to.)

Clean install, locked and unrooted, DRM in tact?
Still unfavourable deep sleep?
Then that surely is pointing to a inherent issue with Sony Nougat.
However why isn't everyone here with XZ Nougat complaining the same?
We need more input.
In the meantime I will need to bite the bullet and reset my phone as well and report back.

I got the same problem with you too, 7% after night, my old phone was Z1 to compare too. After update to 7.0 then back to 6.0.1 battery drain is less, but still more than normal.

I also Started to get huge Phone Idol drain (top of battery usage) after OTA update to Android 7 on Stock unrooted, Ive done a complete fresh start through xperia companion and still getting big drain from Phone Idol.

Got the same problems you guys are facing.
My phone did drain from 100% to 88% in just 2 hours (Display on: 35 minutes half brightness, phone calls 10 minutes) and its on WiFi not even mobile data. My girlfriends phone did drain about the same with 35 mins display on BUT calls of 45 minutes.
Oh and idle yeah on WiFi about 1% every hour and on Mobile Data 3%/hour.
This is really bad imho and it's been 2 times I've repaired the device via Xperia Companion. Funny about this is, that always on the first run I get a message "Firmware could not be repaired". Then I restart the whole process and it does just fine. Same with restoring images/videos.

I've started to notice my phone idle is near the top of battery usage. Initially after installing Nougat, battery life was great. Now I narrowly get 5hours of SOT. Currently at 70% and phone idle has used 19% of battery at 196mAh and SOT 1.5hrs with 182mAh. Not sure why the phone is not sleeping.

I upgrade to 7.0 again recently, and it only cost 1% per night, it's quite good . But battery consume while using is not much improvement like idle.

Facing the same problem, though i dont think its actually draining in my case, the phone deep sleeps fine but the drain with screen on is just appaling, since I got it I only got 4 hrs Max SoT thats with MM and N. It just seems that the battery generally sucks.
As of now, i have 84%: sot 23% 48 min - phone idle 20% (time on 4 h 35 min). By this it means i'll get about 3.5 hrs SoT which is normal in my case (though not good in my opinion)

I've just updated to the lastest .374 from .327. From what I experienced, the standby battery life have improved. I left it overnight and it only lost 2% (unlike 7% like before) which is probably ok for now.

Do you want to say.....that leaving the phone all the night....it lose 2% only???? I can't belive....normally it goes down by step of 2/3% for hours....so in 7/8 night you have to lose at least a 20%....minimum....

Well my battery result probably need more testing but it has never lost up to 20% per night. It would be outrageous if that happens. Are you sure there isn't anything that continuously running in the background of your phone? You could try a factory reset? Usually losing that much of battery per hour is only when the phone is actively being used, I think.

Battery Drain (Pixel 4a Global)

I reformatted to factory settings, and even reinstalled all factory images. I still get a lot of battery drain daily. the battery details screenshot indicates that Google is always on and Suspend Wakelock is always on. what can I do to fix this issue? I am unable to keep this phone otherwise. I always have battery drain issues on Android yet seems as though Google has not provided a stable fix...
I cant get even one hour of screentime on Android until it hits 80%.
I just need to know how to fix the Wakelock issue because I think that's what it is. I tried Wakelock apps but they don't do anything.
EDIT: resolved. just reflashed using Android Flash Tool and that corrected it.

Oy Vey. Battery life (power consumption) is outstanding on this device right out of the box. No rogue wakelocks here. Misbehaving apps and panel brightness are the two biggest drainers. Adjust your life and so called "SOT" will improve. Note the battery is 'only' ~3140 mAh. Don't expect all day longevity if gaming or in constant use. That's not what this phone is about.

I was able to resolve the issue by reflashing. I had used BBS hence why the suspendlockout at 100%.
Steps to resolve. (aware that this may not be the most ideal option for some)
- Reflash using the Android Flash Tool (don't manually update, just use the flash tool provided by Google)
- Start from scratch. Do not restore from backup. Install most needed apps.
- Observe battery drain over the course of the day
The issue was that Google app (not sure which app that is) did not run in background properly hence the high drain.
I was able to get 6 hours of SOT once I reflashed. Here is to hoping 7 hours of SOT with a modified kernel.

Kernel appears well optimized on this device; doubt you will see significant power utilization improvements with custom varients. More likely to score headaches w/o a corresponding benefit.

I'm on my second cycle. Got close to 9 hrs sot on first. Here's my 2nd after useing it for an hour this morning. Even better than my OP5T! I use wifi almost all the time since I don't get any cell bars at home.

I'm getting low numbers like op, 4-5 sot but I'm only on cell data (no wifi in this apartment for now). Could wifi vs cell account for such a big difference? Thanks!

Yep - especially if signal is weak/marginal forcing the mobile radio to maintain a higher power level. Same thing can happen on WiFi although have more options to cycle WiFi on/off during screen off operations. In contrast, mobile radio is on 7x24 unless you tell it otherwise.

Ok thanks. I’ll test it out soon on wifi and see what happens.
I saw that the Pixel 5 is about the same form size as the 4a but with the larger battery. Out of curiosity, anyone know if it’s possible to jam that 4,000mah battery inside the 4a? I haven’t seen the internals so don’t know if there’s enough room.
