[Q] Battery!?!?!?! is this normal?

I know this is pretty heavy usage but i was hoping that the infamous 17day standby time nexus s would handle much better.
My phone is used but it is new to me. I reset the battery stat file yesterday afternoon. Does my battery need more time to recalibrate?
here is my usage graph for today.

I made a comment about GPS being on because my eyes decieved me and I thought he had had it on the whole time. I was wrong lol

I was on the internet most of the day and I read somewhere that google maps and latitude were using lots of battery... you can see from this graph that there was a slight drop in battery discharge rate.
Anyone else finding this?

Latitude seems like one of the reason since it constantly requires GPS.

latitude doenst need gps. Latitude can also use radio. So you dont need wifi or gps on for that.
radio doenst use lot of battery with latitude for me

Battery Eater: Google Services?

I kept my (at 100% when I went to sleep) phone unplugged last night while I slept to see how it does when it's idle. (when I'm working I'm running WiFi tether which obviously sucks battery life so I've not seen how it sits.
6 hours later I woke up to A battery at 71%, which was kind of surprising. I've attached some screen shots.
I run CleanROM 6 with its stock kernel. Would a different kernel help?

Are you on Wi-Fi at home? I've read some people having this issue and they've turned off the Wi-Fi power management feature and it seems to resolve this. Settings--wi-fi--menu key-- advanced should get you to the right menu (I'm on an aosp rom so not sure if it's in the same exact place).
Also an app like Better Battery Stats might provide more specific information about whatever is draining you.

Where would this be in 4.2.2?

Same place I described. It's the box "Wi-Fi optimization."

Thanks Dearborn! I just changed the setting so hopefully it works! I didn't even know that existed!

I have the same prob since CR6v2 (50% Google Service batt use when relatively idle) and have always had my wifi set to stay on when sleeping (assuming that's the setting you're talking about). It seems clear via GSAM and normal batt stats that Google Services is causing wakelock. GSAM says, "included packages Google Contacts Sync" but I'm not sure if that's conclusive or if it's just providing an example.

Terrible idle battery drain!

I have a terrible battery drain when my phone is idle. Tried everything, but nothing solved it. Ever since Lollipop I have this issue.
Clean flashed MM and still nop. Flashed ElementalX 6.04 yesterday which still couldn't solve it. This is frustrating :crying::crying:
I have disabled everything too. No Wifi, data, bluetooth, location...etc (My phone is not a smart phone anymore)
Only adaptive brightness is enabled.
Yesterday I fully charged and went to sleep to find out it has drained 28% after a 7 hours sleep. Removed all the unpopular apps (suspicious apps) as well. BetterBatteryStatus says my phone has been in DEEP SLEEP throughout the whole time too.
Please give me a solution

How old is your phone?? You might need to replace the battery. Especially you've already done everything from kernel, to clean flash to disabling apps and settings

your bstats also tells no abnormality? how about its partial wakelocks? can you post those so we can check it out?

According to BBS my phone has been in deep sleep throughout the whole time. I'm assuming its the battery, I need to replace it may be.
I charged my phone again. I will post partial wakelocks too in few hours time.
Thanks alot

Even though it may not make a huge difference but you can try draining the battery out to 0 (until the phone can't stay on even after a force power on) and a full charge (30 mins to an hour overcharging after you see full battery indicator).. Gluck.

I replaced my battery, I was getting hard reboots as well. But wow with a new battery and marshmallow my nexus is like a new device.

99% no or unknown signal.
That could be the cause of your drain, when the phone has no signal or poor signal it will use a lot of battery to keep the connection alive. Set aeroplane mode on

Glad it was fixed

App power consumption not being displayed

Hi all,
This is my first post so sorry if it's the wrong place or just plain stupid.
Under power management, the power consuming apps section displays "currently no apps to report" for both unused apps and consuming apps. Anyone else have this problem?
Any help would be greatly appreciated

Normal. That means you have no misbehaving apps consuming an abnormal amount of battery
Here's mine

I forgot to close my SSH client some weeks ago (with an active connection to my home router), and it was reported

Thanks for clearing that up. Only got my phone on Sunday just been trying to work out why the battery is going down quick. Used about 25% since 9 am this morning.

But under battery /screen how much time has the screen been on?
Sent from my Xperia z5 using Tapatalk

Well it's now 15:16 and I'm now on 39% total screen time 2:44.
This is with brightness at lower setting and no wifi only mobile 4g.
I've been using chrome a fair bit and Spotify
But Spotify doesn't seem to actually effect my battery much at all.
How does that compare to others?
Just want to know if it's normal.
Thanks again

Ignore me. It's chrome it's used 43% of my battery.

I guess thats the rma (radio mobile active) bug , try disabling mobile data and use wifi to see if there is a difference in battery drain

Could you plz tell me the name of the theme you are using? I think the navigation buttons are really beautiful. Thx

Guyz, m not using WiFi even for a minute but in battery stats it's always on, and i think it's eating my battery faster.
Any solution or anyone else facing it?

We all have the same issue.

how do I find the app behind the wakelock ?

currently my S20FE 5G is running a rooted stock based custom rom that has a few OneUI 4 elements in it somewhere, no idea what those actually are.
I'm getting some steep battery drain but otherwise I'm quite happy with the rom and want to keep it.
I've got a partial wakelock called VK_WakeLock, it's keeping the phone from sleeping when the screen is off. I searched for a while and can't find a method that would help me find the app that's causing it or even better the specific service or process.
if we know the name of a wakelock is there any terminal commands or apps that could lead me to a package / process name ?

What's accessing the internet when that happens?

I have background data off, I have a firewall that keeps the majority of apps without internet. most of my user apps (which aren't involved) don't do background stuff, so basically I've got no idea right now.

Try temporarily disabling Google play Services at night. It's a blood sucker, day and night.

it hasn't been a battery drain for me previously, if it was an update that brought this effect the internet would be full of posts regarding it. as it stands their are only a handful of search results for VK_WakeLock.

Well you know how I feel about updates...
You can try making sure all system apps are updated or roll them back to their factory load versions.
Clear system cache. Clear system app caches or data.
Find the root cause. You need to ID that apk responsible for your mystery name.
or
Factory reset and hope that gets it.
This is why I don't update. Cleaning up an update mess is time consuming.
