Huawei P40 Pro Wake Lock Issue - Huawei P40 Pro Questions & Answers

Hi, I recently purchased a P40 Pro. Brilliant phone. I have GSM installed etc. My issue is that I get random wake locks when I leave the phone on standby. Many of the wake lock are from *Alarm*, Kernel OS, hibernation & GNSS location provider
*Alarm* has 149 wake ups
Hibernation has 170 wake ups
GNSS Location provider has 41 wake ups
Kernel OS has kept the phone awake for roughly 5mins while in standby
Please see screenshots
I would like to point out that prior to this I had the Mate 30 Pro with GSM services and I used to get NO wake lock/ Keep awake at all which was amazing. There was nothing keeping the mate 30 Pro awake even for a second.
Any help would be highly appreciated!

Seriously, nobody knows how to resolve this???

I'll look into wakelocks when I have some time, but do you have reason to believe that your battery is draining faster than it should?

Thanks bud
And yes definitely, considering that the battery is only 300mah less than the mate 30 pros 4500mah, the battery definitely isn't as good as it should be. Even with 60hz the battery life is just above average. These wakelocks are definitely the issue

S6 heating!!!! help

Hello guys.
So i bought the s6 non edge 32 gig model 3 days back. The phone is awesome no doubt but i had heating issues from the very first day. First i thought it might be the battery drain. did factory reset and i was getting 4hrs+ SOT with 5.0.1.
Now i am on 5.1.1 and the battery seems to have improved giving 5hrs SOT. But the phone heating issue remains the same. The phone gets warm about 92F above after 5 minutes to 10minutes normal usage.
Using the phone for 30 min the temperature is near 100F . is it normal? Cpu spy shows normal activity.The phone only heats while using it is cool with screen off. The heat is felt on the left side of camera and spreads around after more usage. Due you think its because of the climate. i live in a place where summers are always above 93F . But even in AC phone gets pretty warm.
Do you think my battery timings and phone heating is normal. Please comment i am quite worried about it i spent a lot of money on it.

i think if you're worried about it you can bring it to Samsung Service Center to get it fixed.
i donot have samsung centre in my area. infact i have to ship it to dubai to get it fixed. can you tell me does your device gets warm after using it?

wow that's pretty bad, sometimes, when using too long for battery consuming applications like gaming or such, but when i put it into my pocket when it's warm, it gets hotter.

you can try downloading CPU Spy Reloaded to check your CPU state usage, get better battery stats as well to check what is consuming your battery the most

okay so i downloaded both apps... the cpu spy shows no sign of abnomal cpu usage... it is in deep sleep for most of the time. better battery stats show no app draining battery... i only use fb/messenger and gmail app. today i got 5 hrs SOT with 22hrs usage time. i think the battery us fine but why the phone warms up so much. My question is how oftenly do you feel that yous phone is getting warm?
Maybe brightness is too high causing the phone to heat. Cases also make phones overheat.

he could be using auto brightness, which also causes the phone to spike the brightness and heats up faster
Hey, I had a similar problem with my Galaxy S6 32gb and I would only get roughly 10 hours battery life out of it with 2 hours screen on time and as soon as I turned the screen on, it would be so hot on the right side, you couldn't actually hold it. I just ended up selling it and didn't think to contact Samsung or anything because it did it every time I turned the screen on so I just thought it might've been normal. I always had everything turned off with just wifi and auto screen brightness on and just 1 Google account synced too. :silly:

that's a sad story you shouldn't contacted Samsung to get it sorted out
Figured out it was a hardware issue... there are two ways to check if you s6 heating issue is software or hardware related. install gsam battery monitor and see if kernel or android OS (apart from any third party app draining) is draining most battery than its a software issue.
otherwise its a hardware one. i got mine replaced and the new one works fine.

battery life mate 9 after update

Hi to every one,
I have mate 9 (MHA-L29C185) before was in B126 and I got OTA update to B138.
before the battery life was amazing and sometimes lastest 2 days without charging but now after said update I am charging the battery every single day with the same usage as before!
could anyone please advise WHY?
No difference here after the update, or if there is it's too small to notice. I'm still getting two full days of use.
Were your battery saving settings changed by the update?
Have you added any new apps?
I had the same experience but it's been getting better. I'm still not back to 10h SOT but I can easily reach 8-9 so all's good.
I assume that after upgrading your device needs to reindex everything again and that might explain the poor battery life right after upgrading. My advice is give it a couple of days to settle down.

Please see my battery usage details & advice
Settings > Battery > Close Apps after screen lock.
Select All.
Leave it run for a day.
I updated to the new update as soon as I took it out of the package. I was losing about 3% per hour even during deep sleep. I would go to sleep at 12 and wake up at 6 and be between 80 to 85%. My LG V20 lost a total of 1 to 2% overnight. I tried resetting the phone, playing around with settings and setting applications to close after screen lock. I then found out it was the wifi killing my battery. The next night with wifi off but data on I lost 1% overnight. Now I get about 2 full days on a charge and around 8 hours SOT.
Especially that WiFi+ sucks a lot of juice! I have it off.
Gents,
Yesterday night before I sleep, the battery was 98% I closed the mobile and went to the bed.
a morning I wake up, and the battery drain from 98% to 80% while it was STBY and no activity!
I check the consumer (see attached) and found mail was from hardware & software especially Android OS!
Please anyone can help? before I update to B138 the mobile was amazing and during the night might only drop 3-4% which is normal, not 18% now :crying::crying:
Have the same experience with 138, draining 20% over the night, my iphone 7 Plus placed side by side with the Mate 9 drains 1% over night. Have done a factory reset but still the same issue. And dont tell my to close all apps when powering down the screen - it is a smartphone and not a dumbphone. Did not buy it to kill all benefits with a smartphone and big battery
looks like some apps hogging your phone so cant go to sleep and by the looks of it wifi scanning is on which keeps the wifi module on while its off consumes more batter, also have a look at the apps with push notification or apps which run in he background. At battery management check the apps which close or not after screen lock.

Whatever they say the actualization for the B138 radically changed the battery consumption ..... up to B126 was fine.
I did not realize because in the changelog it said that it optimized the consumption of the battery, it really optimized for the worse .... huawei(Idiots) go to sleep because I should have corrected the problem, but they are sprinkling for customers, I'm going to sell mine and I do not want any more xinocas.

I dont see it getting worse. Its good for me

Downgrade do you know how to do it for the C432 B126 Portugal? That's how it worked, because I do not understand any of this.

Granted I'm not getting 10h SOT like I did back with B126 but I'm getting 8-9h now with B138 so no complaints here.
This model has been released only 2½ months ago and I've already seen 2 firmware upgrades. They're clearly active, I wouldn't sweat it.

Severe battery drain on s10e. Any suggestions or solutions?

I've been using the phone for two weeks now and the battery drain has gotten pretty horrible the past week. I charge the phone up to 100% and leave it off the charger as I go to sleep from 1am - 9am.
I wake up and my phone has 70% battery left with wifi/data off. [Battery drain](https://i.imgur.com/VkAcAqd.jpg) [Google battery drain](https://i.imgur.com/qjxMkN2.jpg)
Does anyone know what I can do? Is there an app with which I can check on what's draining my battery?

You can check which apps is draining the battery.
Just go Setting, then search for "Device Care", then hit "Battery" -> Battery Usage
All S10 phones have a bug that is causing them to not deep sleep when screen is off, causing poor standby performance. This is caused everytime you receive a VoiP call, so after you receive one, just restart the phone. Being caused a proximity sensor bug.
Try off Biscuitby feature

Try to wipe disable Google app and check battery consumption. If problem persists, try to wipe cache from recovery and if necessary do a factory reset, 30% battery drain in a night without network connections is not normal. If all attempts fail better go to Samsung assistance to change the battery
7hrs: 10% when sleep, wifi on. Not good but I think it is not too abnormal. I think, samsung still have a lot of bloatware!
But on screen I thnik is OK: 5-6h mixing, 3000mA battery on a strong SOC, it's normal. My back up Huawei GR5 2017, 3400mA, it is the same time!
This solution was posted on the S10 forum and certainly helped me.
There's a bug that stops the phone from going into a deep sleep mode post making a call (audio/video) on apps like WhatsApp, Skype et al. The solution for the time being is to reboot the phone once before going to bed. I tried a lot of other things but had a ~2% hourly standby drain which reduced to <5% overnight after figuring out this solution. I have both WiFi and Bluetooth on at night.
You may try to play around with the battery saving tweaks in ONE UI but nothing worked as well as this has. Hopefully there'll be a more practical fix to this soon.
Cheers!
Being as this affects voip calls, does this mean wifi calling is affected too? I mean, that's technically voice over IP.

I tried to debug battery drain using Battery Historian. I noticed that the phone does go to Doze mode completely, but for some reason, CPU stays awake. I'm still new to the tool, will try to find out more about why CPU is kept awake all the time.
I get battery drain regardless I make any VoIP call.
Another issue I noticed is PUBG lags horribly on the phone. I tried different combinations of graphics settings, the game was still lagging.
Just tried pubg...hdr +ultra runs ok for me. No lags, maybe sometime stutters for a sec.

For the first launch, the game runs very smoothly, lag starts after that. The more I play, the more lag I get.
Putting the phone on battery saver mode barely drains any juice (Medium Power Saving mode), seems like it's just a software issue and not hardware specific issue.
By the time Samsung releases any fix, we might have to live with this one.

What update? Can you share the info that came with it? My SM-G970U1 is still on Feb. 1, 2019 patch. Although I don't have any problems with battery drain, pulled out two screenshots lately, both over about 12hrs period, one was with cellular radios on and the other just an airplane mode:
It's mostly Exynos people or the Sprint USA models \ service. No one else is having it really.
Got the March update. Exynos version. Battery drain seems a bit better at first glance. But it's not been long since the update. So not completely sure.
Got the phone today and the battery sucks lol and got an update today as well
My Snapdragon S10e never gets less than 4 hours of SoT under the heaviest use (I am constantly messing with settings, installing\closing\uninstalling apps, etc etc)
If I use it "regularly" just browsing Reddit and such, with a normal phone signal, I get 6 to 9 hours every time.
I don't use dark mode until Sunset.
I leave NFC/Bluetooth/Location on at all times.

My smartphone is new. I bought it sealed two weeks ago.
I have had a similar energy consumption with the two s7 I have owned. With a very light usage, with the phone in idle almost the entire time, no wifi and gps activated, I would say that I loose something like 20% a day. It is much higher than other phones I had like the s4 mini or more recently the Redmi Note 4, with something closer to 10% a day (the Redmi Note 4 has a 4000 mAh battery which is higher that the 3000 mAh battery of the s7, but still energy consumption seems to be lower). In general, idle energy consumption seems to be a bit high to me on the s7. But I heard that the pixel 3 for instance also has a standby time that is not impressive. Again, it depends on what is installed on your phone and how you use it.
Maybe some tools like betterbatterystats or something similar can help you to see what wakes up your device if you want to make sure it is not due to any app.
yep mine consumes the same , i think its some hardware issue , i flashed morokernel 7.4 and undervolted , used hidden settings magisk module to turn off wifi watchdog and background scanning , that saves almost nothing ,,
you can even turn off the doze feature and idle drain is the very same between doze and not doze...
the idle drain is just bad .. it will also be the first and last samsung phone ill ever have , back to sony after this one, my amazing z3c (rip) used 0 to 1% per night and gps was 5 times more exact than this samsung ****phone, had perfect pocket mode , what s7 is missing entirely
well at least it has a good screen on battery life , so its not totally unusable phone
buying samsung is like wanting to buy a german car but end up buying an english or french car instead lol ...
edit: just searched for a comparison officially:
16 hours Standby sony zx1 9 % samsung s7 23 %
but if you install swift installer , use dark themed apps , and firefox with darktheme addon for websites the amoled screen on time is impressive , almost the same as idle drain for normal browsing lol

Well yes, some other phones have more impressive idle power consumptions. I also have naptime installed to trigger doze when the screen goes off, but does not change battery life so much. Even ROMs with a very limited number of apps installed lead to a high idle power consumption, so seems like an hardware related problem to me. But I still consider the s7 as a great phone and keep it as my daily driver. It is kind of waterproof, has an excellent camera even in 2019 standards (and there's just one in the back, not dozens), I like the fact that it is a 5 inch phone that can easily fit in my pocket and that I can use with one hand, the design is quite good and polished (subjective), no curved edge and notch that I don't really like (subjective), it has nfc, a jack port, a great amoled display, fingerprint in the front panel. And recent Lineage OS and Lightrom ROMs work quite well. This phone has still a great support after a few years, and I have difficulties to find all the features I like on this phone on any other phone. So charging my phone every 2 days is ok for me
Edit:
- bad signal reception can also increase battery drain

its wrong, but theres nothing we can change so stopping worrying is the right call ... 0,9% per hour is the best which is possible on this phone it seems ..
but of course we need to throw this phone in the trash after 2 years becasue the battery will have deteriorated and usage is closer to 2 - 3% per hour (which in effect means it wont wake you many mornings (unless you have 30%+ when you go to sleep) .. while other phones might hold out 4 or 5 years maybe even 6 until the idle drain reaches the treshhold of unsusability ...

I upgraded to an S9 in Arpil from an S7. The S7 has no sim card and I get about 3 or 4 days yes the phone is idle most of the time but never got that battery life when it had a sim card.
I am not suggesting you remove your sim card but this does indicate where some of the idle battery consumption goes,

Exynos N985F Dismal Battery Life (< 3Hr SoT)

I upgraded from my SD S10 to Note 20 Ultra Dual Sim Exynos couple weeks ago and Im getting dismal battery performance with about 2h35 to 3h15 of SoT, and I noticed the standby drain is pretty bad.
Before judging me: Yes I am fully aware of the whole Exynos 990 v Snapdragon thing, but because I couldnt get my hand on a dual sim N20U with SD so I settled with the exynos version, which I have seen people claiming getting about 5 hours of SoT vs. over 6 hours of SoT on the SD, and I would totally happy with 5 hr considering my usage. But barely getting over 3 hours of SoT is just plain stupid considering the price I paid for it.
I love everything else on the N20U, but having to carry around a power bank all the time is really annoying. Is anyone experiencing the same issue and any luck on fixing this? I am not sure if it is a software issue.
P/S: I attached a couple of screenshots for Battery Usage and Gsam Battery report. I did just reset my phone yesterday to see if the performance improves, no luck. I also did all the battery optimization settings + limit all background usage on all unnecessary app, including facebook and other social media apps..
I have the same phone, and i have the same problems... 2-3 Sot maximum. And i hate it.
If i turn off adaptive screen, turn down to minimal resolution and turn on battery saving only the standby drain gets better. The sot stays the same.
Every unnecessary app is in deep sleep, so nothing much more that I can do.
But if you find something out for a solution please share.
Until then I have to carry a powerbank also.
I considered to sell it and buy a pixel 5 , but the Note20U price dropped brutally, so it would be a waste to sell it.
Stay strong !

I dont know how are people claiming 5 hours of SoT for the Exynos version. I realized most of the claims were made back when it was running One UI 2.5. Not much reviews on battery life on One UI 3 so I am thinking it is software-related. Waiting for samsung to release 3.1 for N20U.
I use the phone to take notes a lot since I am on the go most of the time. I also do some recreational video editing on the phone and it is serving me well. It is unfortunate that the battery is performing like ****
Main is remaining for more than 10 hours of SOT without playing games, 7 to 8 hours while heavy gaming

Are you on Exynos and on One UI 3? And I noticed you have power saving on, do you leave it on all the time and what are the settings?
Much appreciated

Yes it's Exynos android 11 UI3, most of the time on power saving mode, usual settings nothing new screen always 60hrz, window animation .5, apps not in regulars use always on sleeping mode, stop Sync but need apps, stop receiving notification but for used apps, using ad block, standard display mode, wifi throttling, multicore packet schedule and other option can reduce battery consumption
Stop using third party apps speacialy for system tweaks after that use battery calibration to get the best battery consumption, screen shot taken just now
4g owners, is there solution for root android 11?
Anyone done?
After a month of using the note 20 ultra 4G exynos 990, I decided to swap it for a 5G snapdragon 865+ version. Got a good deal for trading in my 4G so I pulled the trigger.
Same exact app setup and usage, minimal battery saving tweaking => I managed to get 5+ hours of SoT right out of the bat! One UI 3.0. That's a whole 2 extra hours of SoT on the first day of usage and I believe it's gonna get better over time.
