[Q] Battery stats show android OS as 99% consumer

It was a one-time event. The battery was not draining faster, but in the graph it showed this(see screenshot below). Any ideas? I'm on stock rom with stock kernel

Battery stats screw up from time to time. Reboot / recharge. It will come right in the end

That's quite normal if you have not used the phone in that period.
The android os has consumed 99% of the the battery drain of 24% and not 99% of the total battery capacity. When the phone is on the android os is always running and will obviously use the battery.

It is obviously a screwup, cause I used the phone, and usually screen consumes the most. A fully recharge resolved the issue

Eh?
Just edit the title to put "[resolved]" or something. Topics don't get "closed" and don't need to be. Moderators have more important things to be doing.

It's a little awkward, but I simply cannot find where I can edit the title of the thread... :\ The question still remains though.. why did this happen?

What more do you need to know other than sometimes it happens? It's a bug, it happens from time to time for as long as I can remember.

[Q] Contacted Motorola Help regarding battery life, is the advice they gave legit?

well..if the pic shows ur normal usage then you are getting good battery life actually. 2 SIMs,wifi on,bluetooth on + maybe some apps running in background too...sorry but this is not normal usage..this is heavy usage...u cant expect anymore

Looks like this guy is crazy

better check what you're doing with your device, than contacting Help, they will not make your battery usage better lol.
Moto G has brilliant battery life, if used right.
And yes, the advice that guy gave you is fine, as long as you never used your battery and wanna reach max voltage of the cell.

Have A GS6 on hand. How can I help root?

Hey guess I recently got a hold of a GS6 and would like to help the development in creating a way for root access. Im not very familiar on what is needed to begin rooting development but I'd like to help as much as I can.
Let me know

Yup, you'll have to do a system dump, probably need to unlock boot loader etc, but chainfire is someone you'll want to reach out to.
Also, would love to know battery life!!

What carrier or is it international brand? AT&T and Verizon have locked the bootloaders in the past making it hard to root!
Also can you show some of the theme changer in the settings, thanks.

It's SM-G920F so it's international variant. At&T should be G920A

Even without root you could make a System Dump too!
Give a look HERE or HERE

Could you extract the sound files?

Any screenshots yet regarding battery life? =)

It will be good for us, thanks!

When you get around to posting battery life screenshots can you make sure to post screen on time, brightness level, and what you used the phone for so that the number are more meaningful.

Nah, is normal

Yeah sorry I hadnt had a chance to get on XDA and respond. Battery life to be complete honest I am demoing the device 24/7 and so far on hard usage i'm getting 6-7 hours. But thats with the phone on full brightness and pushing the phone to its limits. Tomorrow I will be able to provide accurate battery life i will a free day and will be able to see how long it last without demoing it all the time.
I will so provide screen shots of my battery from yesterday and a screen shot from today.
Thanks for putting in contact with the right people I will contact them and do a system dump and hopefully get this started.

Maybe you can post sot time

Can you upload its Firmware? So we can extract some interesting stuff?
thanks

Yeah, screen on time (SOT) is the only battery metric that means anything to me.

You guys are so wrong on that one.
SOT is probably the worst way to tell a phones battery life.
Were Bluetooth, Locations and other things on? Screen brightness? What apps installed? What was on the screen? A web page? Gaming? (remember this is amoled and darks are easier than whites too).
This really needs to stop because it seems to have spread to a point where more and more people are calling this a metric when it's not.
There are way too many unknown factors that will greatly effect SOT.

He right. We need all the info not just SOT.

Does 360 Hibernation Master app work on Marshmallow for Z5??

Does anyone know if this app works on the Z5 using Marshmallow?? Please confirm.
Thanks!

I'll try and give you feedback.but keep in mind my Z5 is not rooted

Joseph,
Thank you for offering. That's fine, as I do not plan to root the Xperia X Performance when I buy it this summer either.
I have a similar thread going for the X Performance, and a guy in that thread already verified that it DOES work on the Z5 running Marshmallow! I'd already tried this app before on my Z3 (I now have the S7, but don't want to keep it, so waiting for X Performance to come out this summer so I can switch my S7 for that). It worked perfectly, but it doesn't work on my S7. But the guy in the other thread CONFIRMED it DOES work on the Z5 with Marshmallow too!
I would highly recommend Joseph that you skim through that thread, and then do yourself the favor of buying the full version of 360. You won't regret it. (But understand this app does not seem to work on Samsung phones for whatever reason. Not sure on others. Just know it does for Sony Xperia.)
Let me know if you do, how it goes, how you like it, and if ANY issues arise from having 360 on your phone.

Sorry for late reply.Was busy.downloading it right now.

No problem. Just remember to enable EVERYTHING in 360, get the full paid version, leave phone on but screen off (and NOT plugged in) overnight, and take note of what percentage the battery is at RIGHT before you go to bed, as well as first thing in the morning. See that thread for any other questions, and if not listed there, ask me here.
Thanks!!

Ok so on the Full version you had 0-1% battery loss overnight? Let me know please. And also how many hours was that?
If so, GREAT!! Yeah even 1% is a lot. lol You were probably like RIGHT on the border of that 1% when you went to bed.
It's not really called "Doze Mode". That's a Marshmallow thing. It's just the 360 app doin' its thing. lol

lol yeah.Overall if Xp will be anything like Z5 on battery life and with 820 being a bit more frugal it will have a solid battery life

I agree. I'm COUNTING THE DAYS until X Perf is released. I hate that it's not 'til like June though. Wish it was May or even April. Don't know why Sony put it off so long? The Z5 came out like last Fall. April would be at least 5-6 months since the Z5's release, so that's when it should be coming out, not Summer. Sony needs to just release ONE phone a year and make it in the Spring cuz Spring is an awesome time to buy a new phone. Weather's getting warmer, women are wearin' less clothes, more fun outdoor stuff starts happening, etc! lol

I see this app is newer and has same UI with the one from you, also it has more downloaded and rated. I see your one didn't work on your S7, have you tried mine ever?

RyTekk,
No I haven't, but I'll try it tonight and let you know tomorrow.
Yeah it's very similar to 360's UI.
What is the message about the CPU lock not working on non-rooted phones though?

Of course you need to root before do something on kernel settings (CPU, GPU, IO,...).

360 has a CPU lock but doesn't require a root. So I dunno.

360's CPU Hibernation Lock didn't need a root, so maybe we're thinking about something different?
So I tried the Hibernation Manager app last night on my S7. It unfortunately had no impact at all on the battery life (6 hours of sleep). It went down about 3-4%, which is the same it does without any "power saver" help. I will stop by my parents today and try putting it on their phone (Xperia Z1s). Then tomorrow I'll have them check and see if it did anything and get back to you. Hopefully it works on Sony Xperia phones at least.

Unfortunately, 360 Hibernation Master apparently DOES NOT work on the Xperia X series. I have no idea why. Sucks. Tried on my brand new int'l dual-SIM X Performance, and it didn't seem to do anything.
I tried out a couple other apps that were similar but they didn't seem to work either. So I guess for the time being anyway 360 is only for the Xperia Z series phones. FYI
However, Stamina Mode DOES seem to have been properly fixed, so you can still use that.
Note: Just remember that if you use the Visual Voicemail app that after turning off SM you will need to go into VV's settings and re-enable VV cuz it doesn't seem to do it automatically.

honor 6x screen on time

Pls post sot of your 6x along with screen shot here.
It will help us compare our battery life
