Does anyone have an answer to the massive battery drain bug introduced in GPS 8.3? It is 13% of my battery usage. I'm running 44S.

NO issues here as of now. I am on 44S too. I have tweaked privacy guard settings for GPS. Keep awake and wake up disabled even though it sometimes pops up as FC!
You can boot into recovery and wipe cache and check out. If it doesn't work, head over to privacy settings.

I have tried the Privacy Guard trick but lately the pop ups are never ending. Will try cleaning the cache.

I'm on CM7 official. I'm having problem that if I turn off the screen when running some apps like alkido reader, after 10 min I cannot turn the phone on any more. No response whatever. Usually a battery pull will be ok, but I don't want pull my battery all day. If I exit to the home screen its ok.
Anybody knows what's the problem? How can I solve it? Thanks for any help.

First it's called the Sleep Of Death or SOD.
Also, did you change any system settings? (Overclocked, messed with voltage settings, etc.)
No, it's stock CM 7.1. I also tried reflash it without wiping the data. It doesn't help.

I have had an issue since upgrading to 4.2.1 where unless I shutoff the Bluetooth, the phone never goes into a deep sleep and it drains the battery at about a 8%/hr rate. If I turn the Bluetooth off it is only about a 2%/hr rate.
The only current solution I see is to toggle bluetooth every time i get in and out of my vehicle to use the built in BT hands free system. But if I forgot my battery will be drained pretty quickly.
Is there any fix for the Bluetooth battery drain issue?
I am currently in the latest Beanstalk but have had this issue mostly since 4.2.1.
Thanks.
Tasker or locale could handle this quite easily

Thanks for the suggestions. Was hoping there was a fix without an app though. Hopefully in a future build I suppose?
Hey all
I had a wake lock trigger that was draining my battery so I decided to try and find what was causing it. I turned off all background sync and disabled GPS. I charged my phone to full and then let it drain over night. As you can see in screen shots... Massive drain occurred with no visual signs of the cause. Anyone have an idea?

Did you get any shots of the Kernel Wakelocks and Partial Wakelocks screens in bbs? That's where you would see the culprit(s). Also, do you ever do soft reboots? Some people (including myself) have experienced increased battery drain with no visible wakelocks after soft rebooting. Doing a full reboot seems to fix it.

It's definitely something using Wi-Fi. Need more in depth analysis

I checked those but there was nothing abnormal. I'd done a reboot when I flashed the kernel back to stock pa.

I've disabled wifi and it drained to dead. Going to recharge to full and see what it does off wi-fi. What could I do to see why/if wi-fi is killing it?
You can see it is draining it in your screen shots. Maybe you didn't fully disable the background Wi-Fi usage. "scanning always enabled" for example

Doesn't look like its disabled correctly. Your screenshot shows nearly 8 hours Wi-Fi.
Maybe there is a bug in your settings data.
Not sure if you're rooted or not but maybe a backup / wipe is the best course of action

Here's the current setting. I guess I can factory reset again. I'll try that after this current charge cycle.

You could try booting the phone into safe mode to see if it's a 3rd party app, though unnecessary if you plan on trying a full reset anyways.

while at first it looks high, in reality it isnt(yet). in your screenshot you have only lost 5% battery so far with light use. at this point you really cant tell what your battery will be like with use.

ahh, thats a little better, but itll drop a little more with use. while 20 is a little high, id still classify as normal. really anything up to 20% is normal. typically, after a full cycle, i see android os between 9-15%. but it would all depend on exactly how you use your phone.

i see that chrome(and chrome sandbox) is taking a huge amount of battery for very little use. 21% together, just to respond to xda..
Install system monitor from play store and check CPU freq and number of CPU's online while screen on.

As said above....use the phone normally and check when its almost drained. It will surely be much lower.
If location is on...it will probably be higher than 10% I'd guess. If so....completely normal.
Hi all,
I'm fairly new to android and I'm trying to work out where my drain is coming from. Since getting my One, I've had battery drain issues since changing from 25R to 30O and 33R. Thinking it was C11s, I've now moved to CRDroid with AK kernel (clean flash).
I've checked for wake locks and all seems OK and I'm at a loss. I've also checked for the phone not going into deep sleep and that seems OK too. I've added some screen shots below of some representative data and hope I can get some help here.

Have you clicked on the battery graph to see if your GPS is stuck on? Somtimes my GPS stays on even after I turn it off and continues to drain battery until I restart the phone.
GPS is definitely off when I'm not using it, thanks.
You've got Bluetooth on? Your signal seems low to that can cause the battery to drain as well. Do you location turned on?

I do have everything turned on, Bluetooth because of my pebble and location is on too. However this was how I had my phone on 25R and the battery life was infinitely better.

AK kernel has all the battery commits in might be worth trying the new beta instead with further commits. Bluetooth and location will drain battery but I don't make use of either that much to notice what effect it has on battery.

Yup having battery drain too but after i hit 50 percent, it started going down slower. Manages 123 hours run time with 5 hours screen on time. Not the best but not bad. Charging now for Round two tomorrow. If I don't like it, going to 25r

So I cleared my cache the other day. I have pretty bad service at home and normally overnight i see my phone drop at least by 40% battery. Well last night it only dropped by 15%. In fact yesterday i made it 24 hours using only 50% battery.
Just coincidence ? Or real ?
Nope it's real gave me 10 hours more of battery

That's what happened to me also. On the first few days I was dropping battery like crazy at home. Now at home I'm on wifi but my 4G signal is crap upstairs, and in the basement I'm constantly flipping between 3G and 1X. Normally I don't care because wifi for data and I use gVoice for calls here, but it did seem related to battery drain. Clearing the cache (and in my case also a factory reset), combined with turning on Advanced Calling seemed to do the trick. Now it's much more reasonable.
this is a known workaround that works on most S6s...it didn't work on my original but it did on my replacement. See the battery life thread...

Device cache thru recovery or flashfire. Even though the OP doesn't appear to know this, he had high cell standby drain.
