S-Health wakelock battery drain - Samsung Gear S3

Hi all!
I would like to know if other users have a high wakelock of s-health. On my end, using BetterBatteryStats, com.sec.android.app.shealth has about 1 wakelock per minute! I think it's to track the steps, but it's waaaaay too much! What I did before is sync every night and that's it, I don't need to sync all the time, except ofc the notifications.
These wakelocks reduces the deep sleep of the phone, hence battery drain.
Anyone has a method to reduce this wakelock? I'm on a OP3 running LAOS 7 rooted.
Thanks!

Yes i have that problem a couple days a go when i got my watch. Greenify took care of it for me.

Just standard root option. And greenify the Samsung health app. Then i "cut" the wakeups when they pop up.

How do you cut the wakeups? Did you activate the aggressive​ doze with the wake-up tracking and cut-off?

Ok thanks, I did the same, will check tomorrow

Without Greenify there is no other way to control that battery drain? Shame because awesome watch but this sucks...

what is the best battery saver?

help please? what is the best battery saver?
Use greenify and disable auto sync. Basically no app is magic that can increase your battery capacity,
Greenify hybernates apps and prevent wakeups and disable auto sync prevent apps from updating every hour or so.

no, greenify works on ics, i'm using it on svhd
i also use battery doctor.. i dont know it works or not, i like placebo effect
I´m also using Greenify but in addition to that i use Profiles in the settings that automatically switch from 3g to 2g when i´m connected to my home or university wifi.
In my opinion a very efficient battery saver.
From my personal experience with Greenify :
Its indeed good at battery saving, however I experienced phone become unreachable while been untouched for about 3h, phone signal seems to be okay, however nobody can call me nor I can receive messages. It is barely unnoticeable since you text or call anyone, then signal seems to be refreshed.

Help with a couple wakelocks

I am not too versed with this, was hoping that someone could help. My battery life while in idle seems to be suffering quite a bit. Here are the wakelocks that I see using BBS. Any idea what I should do to help my situation?
Do folks keep Google Now off? That seems to be one of the wakelocks but not sure what the other one is.
I'm on stock 4.4.2 using Franco's kernel r24.
Thanks very much!

I'm also on stock 4.4.2 and Franco, and have the same BBS stats, but when my phone is in stand-by, it only burns 1-2%/hr. SOT, on the other hand, is 9-10%/hr. on low brightness, and can go up to 15%/hr on medium brightness.

Switch location mode to device only.
To permanently solve Google Now issues, Greenify it via Xposed. Unsure of the ramifications of this if using GEL.

I'm not familiar with Xposed - isn't Greenify just a regular app? Thanks for the help!

Greenify is an app on the play store, but you can't greenify system apps with it unless you get Xposed, and get the donation version of Greenify. That's how you Greenify a system app. If you don't want to go that route, you can try uninstalling Now, then grabbing it from the play store (or just move it to /data). This way Greenify will be able to control it.
Thanks mate. I gave it a try, but for some reason greenify with exposed did some weird things to my battery settings - the screen on time didn't advance (always said 2 min 32 sec), and better battery stats didn't display most of the usual stats. After I disabled Xposed and greenify, it worked fine again. Weird.

Battery problem after polish 4.4.2 update

hello,
yesterday i installed the official 4.4.2 rom from poland on my belgium/luxemburg note 3. i performed a factory reset to be sure.
today my battery was hell. just a half an hour ago my battery drained from 15% to 1% in 15 min with just sitting in my pocket turned off and warm.
i checked my battery stats and my exchange is using a lot of it.
are there other who have the same problem and maybe have a solution?

Hi
1- Install wakelockdetector and see which program has high battery usage ...
2- stop exchange service and disable it

I've got exchange services running, but it doesnt appear in my battery stats. It seems quite high, maybe your email is syncing a lot. Try changing the sync schedule to either manual or push.

Well i don't speak dutch but from what i see your CPU is not "sleeping"... install that wakelock that the other user recommends and you will see exactly who is messing up your cpu

i cannot install wakelock because it says it needs root on kitkat to work.
I never got stats like that. Today my phone acts normal. Now on 70%

Random Reboots and battery drops

What's the best way to diagnose something like this? It happens randomly and I'm not sure what's causing it. I'm stock rooted.

Your wakelocks or horrible. You need BBS as stated, but the instant drop is indicative of a bug in the stock rom or kernel. If it keeps doing that after the wakelock issues are resolved, you may need to flash another rom.

Does this pretty much mean Google search is messing me up?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
I think Google search incorporates Google Now which yes, mega battery drain in my opinion especially if it is polling for location constantly.
edit: that looks like my battery stats when I don't try to conserve energy and have heavy usage.

So how do I fix this? Turn off location would somewhat render Google Now to be useless, as does turning it off.

If you're getting reboots, grab /proc/last_kmsg the next time it's on. The last few lines should give you some hints as to why it rebooted.

Kk thanks a lot guys, I think the battery issue overall might have been Google search so now I'm going to try to fix it. If my phone reboots again I'll check the file to see the logs.

[Q] Disable Pedometer to save battery

Is there any way to disable the pedometer? I would not use this feature and am thinking it will save battery if it is disabled.

You can start/pause it. As long as it's paused it's not going to keep track of steps. Also noticed that having minimum background running apps will increase life by a lot. It was like draining last night and closed all apps and now lasting 2x longer haha Maybe that was just me.

Thanks. How do I set a minimum number of background apps?

I think he was. I was referring to the gear(long press/2 fingers on the watch). That's what I thought you meant, in order to save battery on the watch, don't have a lot of things running in the background(on the watch).
