My n5 seems to have the GoogleSearch keep awake for 20hours+. is it normal? being in EST, I was not using device for atleast 10 hours from 10pm yesterday until now.
Attached screenshot. Any one else facing same issue?
real painful bug. I've gotten it once on my n5, twice on my n7 v2, once on my n7 v1 and twice on my n4. ONly my n5 and n7 v2 are on kit kat. the other 2 are on 4.3. Just no rhyme or reason thus far as to why it happens but BBS says it's cacheupdate service or entries refresh wake lock. Only thing to stop it is to restart the device. At first i thought it was a kitkat thing but it's rearing it's ugly head on my n4 and n7 v1.
ive been having the same issue. a temporary fix on my n5 was to force stop google search, but it would inevitably return 3-4 hours later. putting it in airplane mode solved the issue...but obviously i couldn't always keep my n5 in airplane mode.
i literally just reset my phone to see if that helps solve the wake issue with google search. i even tried contacting google nexus support, but they haven't been much help at this time. ill let you know if factory resetting my device has helped at all
So, I am not alone with this problem. Its occurred a couple of days ago, went away, and came back.

No u r not alone. I have it every now and then. I installed Cpu spy so I can see if my phone is sleeping or not. If I have the wake lock it stays on 300mhz when screen is off when it should be sleeping.

Stock krt16s on nexus 4. The problem started with the official factory image (didn't had it with slimkat) and since my device never slept again.... Heeelp

The only consistent way i've seen to clear the entries refresh wakelock is to uninstall the updates from within the Google Search App.
This completely clears the issue rather than a restart which works temporarily so Google has messed up with the last Google Search update (the one that brings extra funcionality to Google Now.
I had the same problem, turned off location reporting in Google Settings and it's gone..

Turning off location reporting never cleared it for me i still needed to uninstall the latest search update.
I had the same issue, so disabling Google now (opening Google now, settings, toggle it off) has stopped this wakelock for me!
Sucks a bit to turn it off, but I'd rather not have the wakelock than have good now info, I'll just wait for an update/fix.

this just happened to me, out of no where. kept my device awake the whole time i was in the shower. i will be testing by disabling google now. i agree, it just isn't worth it to deal with these bugs, i can get weather notifications elsewhere
Just got my N5 yesterday and this is going on, Google search using 45% of my battery by the end of the day. Will try turning it off :-/

same here
I too have the same problem and only restarting the phone fixes it and it just happened to me again an hour back.
I have noticed that sometimes when I remove the charger from the socket after the full charge, the problem comes only after that time....so after charging the phone almost every time I check my battery stats for few seconds and if it persist then I restart the phone and yea it get solved but a temporary solution and its really annoying .......hope google fixes it soon

Google search seems to be keeping my phone awake and destroying my battery.
Using the GEL, my phone was awake any time my launcher was active. Switching to Nova, it seems this issue is mitigated, however if I ever go to use the search app (or Now), it initiates the battery rape-fest.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue. I know lots of people here have their data and/or wifi enabled/connected 24/7, so it may not effect them.
I'm linking photos stored in my DB account showing some of these battery drains.

The periods of no signal is when I'm at work - there's no service out here so I might as well have it on airplane mode.
Unfortunately, I really like the GEL, and was hoping that there'd be an easy fix to this. Switching run times doesn't help. I'm currently on ART.
Any advice is helpful.
Do you have hot word detection on? If so then it off that could be triggering it it solved the issue I had with it

Once or twice Search would keep my phone awake and drain the battery. Something to do with toggling some Location settings on or off.
Force stopping the application fixed the issue for me each time once I noticed it on my battery list.

Hmm I also had this problem and also was tinkering with location settings the other night... interesting. If it starts acting up I'll force stop it.
I wanted to disable or uninstall Google Now and Google search and it wiped my homescreen

My issue is that I shouldn't have to force stop it. Why is it running wild? This is a Google application, shouldn't this be near flawless?

I just know it's a pretty easy fix (force stop or reboot) so not a huge deal IMO.
If I had to guess Search is trying to look up some location information which it can't currently access. Instead of stopping it just keeps trying forever. I've yet to see the issue since disabling Locations completely and experienced the issue only with partial location services enabled.
My advice would be to leave Location services completely on or completely off. It may effect those with locations on, but either reporting or history (or both) off.

Oooo, apparently I had history on and reporting off. I'll try turning both off and letting search run for a bit tomorrow, I'll see what happens. If it comes down to it, I'll submit a bug report.

shouldn't be an issue
I have been having the same identical issue as you guys. I have found shockingly little in my searches, which I've been doing periodically for the last few months, really, since I've had the phone(12/5/13).
Now for the particulars :
I have a nexus 5. I'm running the stock ROM and kernel via OTA (4.4.2).
I am rooted (via wugfresh's toolkit) and I have the xposed framework installed along with only a couple of modules, (gravitybox, bootmanager).
Now all this means I am essentially bone stock which means since its a nexus 5 I have the GEL launcher by default and I love it and the setup in general, (my favorite setup so far of all my phones, nexi and other).
Now I've been fortunate and have never really needed to track down and eliminate software causing battery decimating "wakelocks" on any of my devices. And apparently the newer versions of KitKat make finding and solving wake lock issues difficult using apps developed for the purpose.
If I were to upload screenshots of my battery screen when the issue is presenting itself, Google search is up in the top five at least. And when I click it for details it shows similar readouts to what's been posted by OP in his screenshots.
I can't be the only one having serious issues with wakelocks cause by Google search on their nexus 5 and I'm baffled by the lack of discussion I've been able to find regarding this issue, (my google-fu is in my opinion at least up to par)
Whenever I notice my battery draining faster than normal without fail I go into my battery settings and discover that my phone is awake constantly regardless of screen-on time and the culprit is always exclusively Google search. Now its far from difficult to force stop the app and go about my business. And it usually doesn't cause me any issues for a time once that's been done. However, the unpredictability of the Google search app causing a crippling wake lock is for me the main issue as it means I cannot leave my phone unattended for more than a few hours without the possibility of coming back to my phone with my battery that's been molested. The battery in my opinion is more than acceptable and I quite like it. However the uncertainty is horrible.
I've read through the posts In this thread (regrettably few) and I have not been able to make a correlation between location services being on in any of the three modes and Google search wakelocking my ****. Also, I use Google Now all the time every day, and hotword detection is always on to call it up from the home screen by voice which i use even more so. So in my opinion while it is possible I'm sure that somewhere in all that there is a trigger for the issue, it is by no means predictable and in my experience never reproducible.
Now, for the "Google Search" app to cause a wake lock that will persist until the apps been manually force stopped, completely unpredictably represents a HUGE BUG that un-does all of the amazing work with our chipset and kernel and os that gives us such great battery life without having to sacrifice clock speed via custom min/max settings or governor controls.
I just don't get it. This is the first time I've ever encountered such a glaring problem/bug with so little complaint or even discussion.
I think we all should submit official bug- reports to Google about this issue and start being vocal in all of the android communities. I very very rarely comment or post as I am always able to make do by searching and reading diligently. But this blows my mind, the lack of posts and discussion would normally suggest this is a very limited problem affecting a very small minority. But I don't buy that. My set up is too stock, too close to the largest percentage of nexus 5 users to be so. Maybe people are just force stopping the app and forgetting about it, chalking it up to something they've personally done to their phone because "how could Google search be doing this to everyone else". I don't know. But this has to be more widespread of an issue than search results are indicating.
In summation: what OP said lol. But I don't think it has anything to do with what's been suggested by other posters on this thread. Their suggestions may work, and they may mitigate the issue. But if that is the case. Than this a very huge bug that threatens to undo all of the amazing work that's been done with aosp regarding battery efficiency and optimization.

Tap Google search in your battery and check how long it's kept your phone awake. Then back, and check again. If the seconds just got higher it's currently eating your battery and needs to be force stopped.
Any suggestions are just to mitigate the problem for now of course. Hopefully it's being worked on.
I've yet to see the issue again but I have Locations and Hot Word off, Google Now on. I strongly believe using either "device only" or turning off the 2 settings within Locations can act as a temporary fix however.
I had this on 4.4.2 but 4.4.3 fixed it. I'm on 4.4.4 now and have been since it came out, but all of a sudden last week, mm-qcamera-daemon came back and I'm not alone.
With L just around the corner, I doubt there will be any fix for this from Google, so what's the best way of finding out which app is keeping this service alive?
P.S. I have neither Skype, Instagram, nor Snapchat installed - and never have done - so it's not them.
Did you have a camera app running in the background? ie. minimized it without swiping it away.
Nah, nothing like that. I'll even get it when I boot my phone, open no apps at all, and charge to 100% before unplugging from the charger - this action seems to be the cause of the daemon, like some of the other users on that issue report are saying. Never mind, I guess I'll just wait it out until L.
I have never had this problem on my nexus 5 until today (I bought the Nexus 5 on day one)!
This process is draining all my battery!!
The only app I installed in the past week is "Google Opinion Rewards" which was installed 6 hours ago.
Please help if you find a solution
UPDATE 1: I just noticed, via CPU-Z, that all 4 cores are continuously active at high frequency and the phone is overheating
UPDATE 2: Problem is still there even after removing "Google Opinion Rewards"
Just reflash the stock firmware and see if it continues.
Best thing to do with any issue that a solution can't be found for easily. ?

the camera daemon is supposed to appear. its not supposed to stay around, draining battery. especially at 100%, you will see it, as the phone uses it a little bit, and you havent used the phone at all. it will show up. the question is, if you dont use the camera at all, and it appears in your battery stats, after a full cycle of use, how much battery does it take? chances are that by the end of your battery cycle, it wont even be in your battery stats.

I actually fixed it now by flashing the system image and restoring all my apps via Titanium Backup, but I swear I'd never even open Camera for it to occur, and I don't have any third party camera apps. It would constantly be active without opening any camera apps at all.
edit- also Google have restated that they're looking into this bug and have marked it urgent, so anyone else getting it - don't panic too much, it's most likely not a problem you've caused.
I suspect the Hangouts/Hangouts dialer. I updated the app few days ago (no other installs), today was the first time that I got this issue (got my Nexus in February). Also first time since updating I used the camera, followed by battery drain/ daemon/ "failed to connect camera" etc.
I think its because of android wear
With android wear u can access the camera, hence u will be seeing the camera drain for sure. i unpaired my watch for few days and i didnt have this problem till now
I had this problema today morning, my android version is 4.4.4, In my case I used yesterday the camera to attach a photo inside the facebook messenger, maybe this buggy app make this mess in my case.
I reboot and waiting for the results
Same here
Everything was ok from 4.4.2 till 4.4.4. But suddenly week ago discovered mm-qcamera-daemon issue, tried many things without success. I am using phone in safe mode (facepalm).
Waiting official Android L or fix from google.
I got the same issue now!
Started today, what the hell?
Some apps will keep the camera wakelocks going. Freeze anything that can possibly use the camera and see what happens.
Or just clean flash stock, and see if its OK. If so... Install a handful of apps per day.... Then if it goes nuts you know it's an app you've just installed.
https://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=70755#c171
I think i had this fixed. Ihave a rooted nexus 5 stock rom. Installed greenify, pirchased the donate version and had the camera app greenified. No more mm-qcamera-daemon showing up on my battery stats. No more "cannot connect to camera" issues. (So far it's been 2days without it.
camera block app
i see this issue occurs when i use skype or any camera related app in my grand 2 4.4.2 / only way i keep the issue at bay is use camera block app.. which i keep it turned on when i am not really using the camera.
this seem to keep this daemon under control and not drain my battery .
Is anybody experiencing problems with notifications after the B402 Update as well? If my phone is in standby for some time, i dont get notifications for Whatsapp and snapchat for example. Even if i turn on the screen or unlock it, they still dont show. I have to open the apps manually to get the messages, which is unacceptable. Anybody knows a solution? However, the battery life improved(who would have guessed that?)
That happens if you don't factory reset after update and/or restore apps from backup.
Try factory reset, install apps from store and restore just the user data of the apps.

Have you disabled "System wakeup" or enabled "Close app after screen off"? If you did, try toggling them and reboot the phone.
Having said that, I have WhatsApp with disabled System wakeup, and I still get notifications, because WhatsApp also utilises Google Play Services to wakeup the app when a notification arrives. I would check the settings of Google Play services on your phone in case something is killing it.

Source? If that was the case, all the people that update their phone would have myriads of problems. Upgrading without factory reset doesn't cause problems as far as I know. Certainly, I haven't had this type of malfunction, and I've never factory-reset the phone since I got it 18 months ago - that includes the Marshmallow to Nougat upgrade.

This is an old issue, as old as android updates.
Sometimes battery performance decreases with the update, some others is FCs, or notifications, missing stock apps.
Source is XDA, several devices, years of experience and other users that share the same experience.
Don't waste your time debating this, if you don't agree, that's fine.
Actually I think the most common is battery performance decrease which is really annoying when changelog says "battery performance optimisation". After a factory reset magic happens. It's due to old system files (internal and external storage) vs new system files.
Same thing happens after consecutive Windows updates, performance starts to decrease because update doesn't properly clean old files and configs.

I was surprised to see the update available. It took a long time to long time to download, transfer, and install, so I would definitely recommend that your watch be in its charging station for the process.
At the end of the update here are the version numbers:
Tizen 2.3.2.7
Software Version: R730TUVU3DRC1
I haven't fully explored everything, but there's a lot I like:
Quick Access (pull down) has a lot more capabilities (including accessing Settings, Brightness, Do not DIsturb, Screen Always on). Unfortunately they seemed to have removed the music player. (Guess I'll have to add that widget back to my list).
Widget improvement: Multi-contact calling looks better, there are a lot of new Health Widgets including a multi-activity one in which 4 possible activities are presented on one screen for a easy selection and start-up, recent apps widget is really handy.
New apps: I tried the Samsung PPT controller, but it didn't work. (I'm on a Mac, so that might be why).
My big big concern at this point is battery life. It seems terrible. That maybe due to playing with lots of apps and then not doing a clear all, but if it keeps up, I may have to do a soft reset and see how things are. Right now, I'm guess the battery drain rate is 2 or 3 times what I usually have.

The Samsung Health too was update. Now the aplication alone of Samsung Health for iPhone support the Gear S2, and this is incrible!
I believe this Samsung abandoned the Gear S2, but I thinked wrong.
Can anyone speak if the run4gear work in Android Phones with Gear S2 in Tizen 2.3.2.7?
Mine says no new update available :/
I did the update this morning and it was successful. I see the new shortcuts widgets and updated health and weather apps. But I don't see the Powerpoint App anywhere. Is that something you have to download?
So swipe down now doesn't go to the previous screen. Am I right in thinking to get back to watchface you now need to use a button?

Yes , I think the update removed the swipe from top to go back feature. Need to use the side button to go back over you are inside of an app.
Anyone have the previous firmware for SM-R735T? I don't need anything the new update offers, just want the "back" gesture returned.
Habit dictates a swipe and I keep getting back the settings...... Will have to relearn.
Anyone else found this a nuisance?
Valiante try Sammobile....
Wouldn't it try to auto update if you re installed the previous firmware version, or could you turn it off at the Gear app 'phone settings?
Has anyone tried to flash this to a vzw watch or is that not possible and we have to wait and hope vzw puts out an update?
Verizon has updated there page for the new update but still have not received the update ota here's a link to page https://www.verizonwireless.com/support/samsung-gear-s2-classic-update/

Scratch that I just received the update for the Verizon gear s2
i'v also got the new update here in Chile...
awesome update guys.. new pulldown toogles, and a lot more... new icon and new apk's
now we have samsung app store in the gear...
good job samsung gear department..
I was really excited to get the update. After the previous update, watch does this really annoying thing where it lights up the room when its done charging at night. Some times it will stop charging, drain a little, start charging again, and then light up the room a second time.
Well that hasn't been fixed. Now my watch battery is draining incredibly fast. I had to turn off always on watch faces and it's still draining at least twice as fast as it used to. Its been off the charger for an hour and it's already down to 85%.
I really miss the swipe down to go back. I don't need quick settings on every app. I hardly ever used it as it was. Speaking of which, most of the quick settings don't even do anything for some reason.
Really disappointed.
For me with the new update, I can't anymore answer to a whatsapp message direcly on the watch ! I can only use a button to open whatsapp on my phone !
Do you have the same thing ?

I got a second one a Verizon model and bassiy have to have all extra features off. And weird stuff is happening on it
I spent 10 hours yesterday dropped to about 75% I found download mode and was gonna play around. But that was the first reboot. And upon reboot batt was at 15% I'm like what the heck so I through it on charge am gonna swap it back out with the orig AT&T model I got first.
I haven't found the setting to manually set step target with the new update. My alarms stopped working so I had to do a factory reset to get them to work. Now I can't change my step target on the watch. This is how I used to do it:
1. Open Samsung Health
2. Go to very right/bottom and select Settings
3. Select "Adjust Step Target." This selection no longer exists.
I looked in just about every possible setting in Samsung Health and the device settings. I've tapped and long pressed on every possible data point on every possible screen for a hidden menu. It's nowhere.
I reached out to Sammobile 2 times.
- The first time I received instructions for doing this on the Gear Fit 2 Pro. #fml
- The second time I was told to factory reset everything, which I had already done. #fml
It's annoying that manually setting the step target on the Samsung Health app doesn't sync with the watch. But that's another topic.

I closed all the apps and that seemed to help a bit but when you have a few apps open it seemed like it was draining quick...
I'm gonna do a reboot once I get home hopefully that'll help. If it doesn't do the trick that's something they're gonna have to fix.

How do you still have warranty? Where did you buy it from?
