The wife's moto g (running stock OTA Lollipop 5.0.2) and it wont sleep
Ive set the timeout settings to 15s , 2 minutes etc but the screen remains on when there is no activity and its draining the battery pretty quickly (obviously)
Ive rebooted numerous times.
Anyone had this and fixed it? My next step is to hard reset if there is no fix in the hope that this works.
Also with the new lollipop lockscreen can you customize it to get rid of the phone and camera icons at the bottom?

Hey everyone,
I need your help figuring out why my Touch Pro 2 will not enter sleep mode on it's own. For some reason, the back light will dim, but the screen will stay on even though I have all my settings correct in the power management settings. Has anyone experienced this before? I think the fact my phone will not sleep automatically really impacts my battery life as I can barley make it from 7AM-5PM with barely using it much. It use to work fine, but now it doesn't. I've even done a format of the device twice, but still that doesn't seem to fix the issue.
Any help or advice is appreciated.
Not sure what programs you have loaded but try cold boot, see if works. Then check as you add one program at a time.
There is also an option under settings/battery/advanced to force the device to sleep after a period of time.
@ Aspesi4
Did you ever find a solution for this? I'm having the same issue.
I'm not sure when it started as I have a habit of putting the phone to sleep manually before I holster it.
If I lock the phone, the screen will dim, and at intervals, get bright again on its own. If I leave it at the TF Home Screen, it will stay bright and never dim.
I just can't bring myself to hard reset this phone right now . . lol. Maybe when I have more time. For now, I'll keep manually putting the phone to sleep .. . . sort of a muscle memory thing anyway. I wouldn't mind fixing it though, either.
Nope, never solved this problem. Sorry, I think you're on your own on this one.
I have also been experiencing this problem. I just got my Verizon Touch Pro 2 about two weeks ago. I have only added a handful of apps (WinMo MarketPlace, NetFlix Mobile manager, AP Mobile News, WeatherBug, and Shazam. I am pretty sure it was doing this before Shazam.) I think the phone was doing this even before I installed anything on it, but not certain. This is what I noticed;(I had T-Mobile's version and it did not have this issue.) I was amazed that my new Verizon Touch Pro2 was draining its battery life much more quickly than my TMobile version. Then I figured it out; when ever I get any notice on my phone (missed call, text message, phone notification)the screen lights up. This is normal. However, what is not normal is that the screen stays on until I manually acknowledge the notification or I manually hit the sleep button. I have the power management settings to turn off the backlight if not used for 30 sec and to put the phone to sleep after 1 minute. I tested it a few times to see if it would eventually turn off, 1 minute, 3 minute, up to 15 minutes and it still stayed on. . .
htc touch pro 2 won't enter sleep mode
It's the weather program that keeps it awake ...Slider Bar -> Settings -> Data Download Weather -> Uncheck download weather automatically
htc touch pro 2 won't enter sleep mode
"It's the weather program that keeps it awake ...Slider Bar -> Settings -> Data Download Weather -> Uncheck download weather automatically"......
Agreed it is the weather program.
Specifically I turned off my location data collection..... Settings > Location > Improve Location Service (Slide to off). This worked! However out of interest I switched it back on and my backlight still sleeps OK, I just hope this problem doesn't keep randomly popping up.
I'm experiencing the same issue, suddenly...
But when I re-enable the Location option, it won't go into sleep...
Any ideas how to fix this?
bloddy idiots. HTC adds fancy animated auto-downloading weather at GPS location and break the ability to turn the phone on or answer calls! Quietly BRILLIANT!!!!!! idiots.
It has been 2 years I bought this phone.
Nexus S i9023 world wide edition (code name crespo)
Generally it gave 24 hours battery backup. But now it gives only 12 hours backup hardly!!.
I tried all roms like cyanogenmod, slim rom, AOKP and original too.
Screens are attached.
let me know if you have any idea.
let me know if you want more information.
I am on wifi only in office, otherwise wifi and data plan is off.
U get high android os on all rom ?
If bought the phone two years ago, its the battery for sure. After 24 months and several hundred charges its not going to last anywhere near as long as when you first got it

Android os is too high. Something is keeping your phone awake. I suggest greenify and hibernate all facebook, maps etc.. Also, some chat programs can be problematic if you dont use original hangout or google talk.
[SOLVED!!]
i have this problem with my galaxy grand phone ,the battery discharges in 20hr , default OS was 4.1.2 official samsung , i changed my rom into a slim custom rom based 4.2.2 , but the battery has same problem again , Android OS battery Usage Was 80% !!!! and screen usage just was 9% !

All I know is Android OS shouldn't consume 80% of battery when screen is off.
Wakelock detector app always giving me 80% awake and 20% deep sleep. and Phone was having kernel awake issue.
Two days ago I switched back to stock rom with no extra apps installed. and the issue was the same.
What I noticed that I turn of the CRT screen off option in Slimrom 4.2 build 8. and when I come back to stock rom, Obviously I did full format with bootloader, radio and recovery etc.. but CRT screen off was not working. What I guess is if we formatted /system /cache /data dalvik cache etc.. CRT off screen off should be reset and it should be turn on by default, as it was on when I purchased it!!!
So I guess there should be something like OEM unlock option which persist even you do full format. Some of the settings which is causing my kernel for keep awaking.
So I again planned to come back to Slim rom (As I noticed it is very active for my device). And the CRT screen option is working correctly now.
But my original problem of Android OS was still there. in 2 hours of screen off, kernel was awake for all the time, only 4 minutes of deep sleep.
I checked wakelock detector and saw mmc1_detect count as around >1800!!!!
I come back to XDA for solution and found that it could be for faulty SD card. Solution suggested is to go to setting -> storage -> unmount sd card and restart your phone or something (I don't remember actually). But since Nexus S has no external SD card, out of 16 GB, 1 GB is for phone internal and about 13 GB is for USB storage. But how can we unmount it??? Additionally even if I unmount, there is no use of smart phone, as photos and all important things are in SD card. I wasted 1 hour for finding an app that can toggle SD card mount/unmount but no success.
I noticed that my phone has some issue with charging point. It started after I used nexus 7 charger into it. On my laptop usb connection works good, but at my office I checked on 2 PCs but USB is not recognizing it. (Sometime works something don't). Another issue I faced a week ago was, when I removed charger, phone still showing charging!! My friend suggested me to mess with port. Use some small sharp stuff like knife to remove touching charging port with outer steel body, and it worked.
So I concluded there must be some issue with it. Today morning After fresh installation of slim rom with suggested step problem persist. But I didn't flashed gapps, just to test if there is an issue with any of the google apps. But then I installed gapps (only required and gmail and hangout)
all of sudden, issue resolved! 2% wake and 98% deep sleep in 7 hours!
Still I cannot determine what exactly caused an issue. If it is about charging point, all I know is I'll face this issue again, and as it is soldered to IC cheep, I definitely need to give it to professional repair.
As I guessed, Issue again comes, this time I see that 'vbus_present' holds kernel wakelock even after unplugged.
USB working fine, but sometime it keep showing charging after unplugged.
Temporary I am keep plugging and unplugging till charging icon disappear. and then reboot the phone (Rebooting is required otherwise lock will not release).
Soon I will have to repair charging point.
Ha haha, Alli need is to do not let charging point touch outer surface

So I enabled the smart lock location on my Nexus 5. It was alright but wasn't super accurate and I ended up turning it off. Or at least deleting the locations I had programmed. However, every time I unlock my phone the GPS icon pops on for a brief second or two. Perhaps I'm being paranoid but I can't help but think that affects my battery somewhat. Any ideas on how to remove it?
I have a Nokia 3 phone running Android 8.0
Ever since I got it about 5 months ago I changed the 'Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep' setting to 'Only when plugged in' because it saves battery. It worked so far, the Wi-Fi would turn off when not using my phone and it would turn back on instantly again after pressing the power button.
But a few days ago when the Wi-Fi turned off and I pressed the power button to unlock my phone it wasn't turning on again anymore. This is when other weird things start to happen on the phone with the Wi-Fi off, for example when going to the Wi-Fi settings it would freeze for a few minutes, when I go to the battery usage settings and the storage settings pages it just shows a spinning circle and they don't show up. Also when I try to restart the phone when it's in this state it takes about 10 minutes to restart it.
The only way to turn the Wi-Fi back on is to go to the 'Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep' setting, which would then freeze for a few minutes and then change it to 'Always'. When the Wi-Fi connects again the battery usage and storage settings pages work again.
I didn't install any new apps or change anything right before this started happening. I also tried doing a factory reset but I still have the same issue. Can anyone please help me with this?

This is unusual issue to me.
When you updated to 8.0? It's maybe 8.0 issue, i didn't liked how Oreo performs so i rolled back to Android 7.1.1 Nougat December Security Patch, in my opinion most stable Nokia stock ROM currently.
Maybe go to Android 7.1.1, but my advice is to wait for next update, Nokia may fix problem.
