Slow widgets animation when rotating screen - XPERIA X10 General

I just got my phone 4 days ago, on the last 3 days it was all ok, the rotation was fast and every widgets caught of the speed. But then until this afternoon, whenever I rotate the screen, all the icon in the homescreen just appear immediately but not those big widgets like beautiful widget or facebook widget, the delay time is around 1s. I'm using AWD Launcher. Anyone suffer the same prob? Pls let me know as I am new to this phone.
And btw, how is the battery life of this phone? I get around 6 hours of continously WIFI usage including chatting, surfing and downloading apps, and the battery seems to drop down noticeably even when the screen is off with WIFI on. Thank you for any help

Noone is able to help me here? This is so annoying, I want to know if only my device suffers this prob

Hi - I've not noticed any slowing down of the widgets upon rotation.... Which Firmware are you on?
If you're phone is not sleeping when not being used then it's likely to be one of 2 things.. a faulty widget or app or your firmware is still the old one.
Are you leaving everything on? GPS and location services/ BT etc..
?

Nope, both BT and GPS were off, the only thing was on is WIFI as I was surfing around on the internet, but even when nothing is turned on, I still suffer the same prob. I dunno why but it kinda annoying, every widget I downloaded from the market, and upgraded whenever there is any update notification. The only widgets I suffer the prob are those heavy one like beautiful widgets and facebook widget, all the others are alright

Easy battery fix

I read a post from someone (sorry mate couldn't find the post to give you credit) that if you simply removed Timescape from the home screen the battery life will extend.
I was getting around 9 hours of charge per day. That was with approximately two hours talk time and 40 minutes of web use.
I removed the Timescape and Mediascape icons from my home screen this morning. It has been 14 hours with the same usage as before and I still have 60% left on my battery.
I will test it out some more tomorrow, but for now it seems to have worked. I might add Mediascape to home screen and see how it goes.
So before you start loading extra software in an attempt to increase you battery give this try.
Hi - Are you talking about the Timescape widget? I removed that ages ago cos I wasn't using it...!!!.. I don't seem to have a Mediascape widget though?
I think he's on about the standard icons that are usually displayed on the home screen..

Yes, the Timescape and Mediascape widgets (just remove them from all three home screens. Try it out! It is only my first go with it and there has been a very big difference in power consumption. I also got rid of the clock.
I only have browser, calander, messaging, dialer, maps, google mail, and facebook as my home screen widgets. I will keep this up to date to see how far I go on a charge.
Oh, There is one other thing I did today I havent done other days. I have had WIFI connected non-stop.
HI fm1776- I don't have a mediascape widget... I can't find one either!!!.. what's it look like? what's it do?

It looks like three bubbles. Two small in blue and one larger with a PLAY symbol in it. It opens Mediascape.
ahh.. ok.. that's the mediascape shortcut.. that won't affect your battery. it just launches the app.. doesn't do anything just sat on your home.

I think there is a chance that some of the wigets/shortcuts are actually engaging something (updating) and using power.
there is no other reason why my battery power has increased. But I will keep checking and see how it goes.
widgets definitely can.. and do drain your battery - depending on what they do, and how often they update... can't see a shortcut doing anything like that though.

Ok, than. There might be one other explaination. I have had my wifi connected non-stop today (at home) have not been able to get 3g connection today.
Other than these facts I have not changed anything else in my habits. There has to be something related.
the 3g vs wifi thing would probably be it.... When I'm at home I switch 3g off and I can easily get through a full day on about 30-40% battery usage... When I'm out and I have 3G on it absolutely kills the battery... although.. I have recently reinstalled (stopped using it a month ago and then thought I'd re-try it).. juicedefender and set it to switch APN on for 2 mins every 30 which helps a lot...
so in summary - switch 3G off when you don't need it.. makes a huge difference (I normally run on GPRS when I'm out - which is fine for background tasks.. and just switch 3G on when I need to actively use the internet or XDA etc..)..
I just checked to make sure. I have an hour and 35 minutes talk time. five no answers. I used web to read some news and check the weather, and shopped android market looking at whats what and sent 2 text messages; maybe 45 minutes. I spent another 5 messing around with google maps. This is about normal usage for me. Every other day I got about 9 hours per charge.
Today, it has been 15 hours and I am still at 60%
I will give it a shot tomorrow only using 3g and see what happens.
also - as a "control test".. I switched 3g off on my wifes phone too (she has a HTC Legend).. when she's out at work her battery drains really bad... and with 3G off it lasts twice as long...
I also switched Juicedefender off... which made a huge negative effect too..
so with 3g off and Juice defender on.. the phone lasts about 3x as long as it does without them. (she's not a heavy user of the phones "smart" functions, but does read email etc on it)..
Just set the Timescape update timer to never and update it yourself when need be and turn wi-fi off when not near wi-fi access points; the constant updating and wi-fi searching is causing the battery drain.
17 hours and still over 50%

Actually, I dont want to turn off APN totally as the weather needs to be updated automatically. What I want is key to switch between 2G and 3G. When I browse internet ot downlaod sth, the 3G connection could be turned on. And 2G connection is turned on for the rest time.

HELP: Froyo killed my parents & my battery life

I know there might be a dozen threads about this, but its all gobbledygook and nobody seems to have a straight answer.
I just want to ask: What can we possibly do about Froyo draining our battery? Task manager auto-killers aren't working right now it seems.
Turn off 4G
Turn off WiFi
Turn off GPS
Turn down brightness
Stop opening crap
Problem solved.
Task Managers??? Are you kidding me? My battery life has doubled since Froyo because I dont use task managers or auto killers. Use Fresh Rom, with set cpu with perflock off, change the screen off to 245/245. Most important part is condition your battery...Trust me, i thought it was stupid as well, but it works.

I have the same problem. I read reports that Facebook 1.3 will not release the partial wake lock. I took FB 1.3 off and the problem persisted.
Here is how to check if you have a problem with your partial wake lock:
goto settings > about phone > battery and compare the uptime and awake time. If they are the same or very very close you have a wake lock problem. A wake lock allows an app to prevent your phone from going to sleep, even if the screen is off. If these times match then an app is creating a wake lock and not releasing it, and therefore your phone never sleeps.
As I said removing FB 1.3 did not solve the problem, but I was able to prove it is a wake lock as using Advanced Task Killer to kill 21 tasks allowed my phone to actually sleep, as indicated by a corresponding difference in the two times. So now that I know this is an app doing it, I will try to narrow it down and figure out which and report back.
OK I just found it. It appears the LED Light widget also causes a partial wake lock. To alleviate you don't need to uninstall it, just remove the widget.
Which led light? From market or the one with 2.2?

The new "flashlight" app is not a widget...It's actually called LED Light, by picolyl.

Problem NOT solved. Or maybe 15 extra minutes.
Or don't use it at all, you'll save plenty of battery
Check to make sure that your Google Talk app is not automatically signing in. Go to apps - talk - settings. This is a typical battery drainer
totally forgot about google talk. have flashed a few ROMs back and forth, and now running a stock rooted ROM, I forgot to shut this one off...
use a custom rom, something without sense and try not to have a f***ton of widgets. im running cyanogen nightly and i get about 10 hours before i hit 20%-30% thats when i quit doing stuff and start trying to make the battery last. screen eats most of the battery so turn the brightness down.
my average 10 hours is 75-125 txts 30 + or - min of talk time and 3+ hours of internet (facebook)
oh, and about your parents... they are gone, there isnt an app or a rom that can fix that.
Indeed, the title of this thread is goofy. Froyo has literally killed my parents....... and has done a bad job for my battery life on my phone. Haha!
I guess an apostrophe would not have hurt after the word "parents" eh?
Doing a factory reset will fix your problem... I had the same problem when I updated.

I'm having similar issues with my OMJ 2.2 froyo rom. poor battery life, plus it seems laggy and unresponsive. i was much happier with OMJ's 2.1 rom

juice defender very slow?

I have the paid version of juicedefender. For the most part I love it. But I have one question. For all apps that I have 3G enabled for (gmail, maps, etc), it takes a good 10 seconds or more between turning on the app, and getting any indicator that 3G is being enabled.
Does everyone else have this same issue?
Ie, I launch gmail, hit refresh, and wait - and nothing happens. Then I wonder what's wrong - about 10-15 seconds later, the 3G icon pops up in status bar, then the refresh starts.
I think most people have juicedefender enable data on the screen turning on, or the screen unlocking. I do notice there is a good 4-5 second delay after I turn on the screen. This is to be expected, at least to a certain extent.
Setting jd to enable data on unlock is probably the best compromise of convenience and battery life. I use that or toggle off data completely depending on where I'm at, using the jd widget to switch between modes.

Thanks. I'll give that a shot and see if it doesn't kill my battery.
Since killing the DRM processes, my battery life has been tremendous! so maybe now I can afford to have 3G on with the screen.

If you're going to be doing alot of usage not requiring data you can always use the handy jd widget to toggle data off. The widget has 3 modes:
On - user controlled
On - jd controlled
Off - user off

Had the same issue, but its alot more noticeable on this phone than my hero because this phone unlocks and is ready to go so much faster. I ended up getying rid of it because I stream slacker for ~9 hours a day and it just got in the way otherwise.

Large amount of Audioout_2 and Audioout_3 wakelocks

So I get these wakelocks for some reason, about 2-10 minutes of Audioout_2 and Audioout_3 per hour when idle, with screen off.
And they seem to show up as wakelocks, even if I have my phone active. So I get like 47minutes of this wakelock, but awake time is 56:27minutes and screen on 54 minutes. And this is not the problem until you see how much of this wakelock has kept your phone awake after 24 hours, I had like 3-5 hours. Should I be worried?
APP - Wakelock Detector, BetterBatteryStats.
What I have tried - Uninstalling Viber, no difference. Disabling all lock sounds, touch sounds, dial pad tones, not much difference either.
I didn't have this before, what could it be?
Android 4.3 Stock, not rooted
I seem to be having the same issue. I'm running on stock 4.3, no rooting, I do not have Viber, and while I do have Skype installed, I almost never use it. I have haptic feedback disabled as well as touch sounds.
Rebooting the phone seems to fix the issue, but that's obviously a bit of a pain to do every time.
Other than maybe blaming Poweramp for keeping the wakelock going, I can't think of any other apps that could be causing the issue.

After you reboot when does the issue seem to come back? What apps are you usually using?
Do you have any of these apps - Light Manager, DashClock Widget, Smart Wifi toggler.*
*These apps have no deal with audio wakelocks whatsoever, but still, maybe 4.3 has caused one of those apps to use the audio wakelocks somehow.

My main apps are Gmail, Chrome, Facebook, Twitter, BaconReader and Poweramp. After rebooting the length of the wakelock time definitely isn't as long. And yes, I do have DashClock Widget. I didn't consider that one to be a potential culprit.

I noticed that audioout_2 only runs when my screen is on.(most of the time)
The audioout_2 run time and SOT are always close.
The audioout_2 and audioout_3 will not run (very minimum) when your cell goes into deep sleep.
I have mostly Google apps installed.
Edit: After searching on internet,Many users told these wakelocks can be caused if there is a corrupted mediafile (picture,music,video)..
Need a solution for this.

What do you mean corrupted mediafile, like unsupported MP3 file? Could that be a problem? God dammit, this is too complicated.
I have only a few pictures that I have taken with the phone, no videos. Only music could be related.
So I yesterday turned on location services, the results I got were pretty bad. I am not 100% sure that the issue is location services, but I did not have this bad screen_on - awake ratio before. Here are some screens.
I didn't do anything unusual, I might report back tomorrow about results w/o location services.
I left only GPS setting active in location settings. Here are the results.
6hours phone on, Battery left 87%.
55:31min awake, 38min screen on.
1013 wakelock usage 32:12min.
I played a few games, made some calls for the time when screen was awake.
I would call this a success, because usually I could barely make through a day, almost 3hours screen on in 12hour period. And the battery is dead.

I disabled Wi-Fi & mobile network location in Location access settings. But I am not entirely sure that this is a solution.
I am very confused with all this Android and Nexus 4 problem amount and uncertainty, I am not even sure what to believe anymore. I am starting to wish I had bought an iPhone. Maybe it was because I was at just at home and in a city mainly, and the cellphone just didn't have to look for different cell towers, I am not sure what should I even think anymore.
But currently this has helped me, I guess. Disadvantages of this might be that the phone will not be able to select the best server available when indoors... I'm just so tired of Android.
I can't shake off this stupid wakelock, it keeps my phone awake, Android is soo annoying, I would probably never notice this if it weren't for the battery usage apps, but I would notice the horrible battery life on Nexus 4.
Has anyone had this problem and made it go away? Or is still having, and just got through with it and ignores it? Please help me!
I think I had 0 amount of this wakelock in the first few days I got these battery status apps, I had only a few Media, Caldendar, Gmail etc. wakelocks
The wakelocks are caused by the touch sounds that are enabled by default.
Everytime you touch a button on your phone it will make a sound, which will initiate the wakelock. Turn off these sounds in:
Settings -> Sound -> Touch Sound
You can also 'hear' the wakelock, because when you hold the back speaker of the phone to your ear when a sound was just played, you will hear some static noise for ~2-3 seconds after the sound finished playing.
When you listen to music or watching a video you will also get these wakelocks, but that's completely normal.

Right, did You have that before? Or it just turned up recently, I don't remember having this much wakelocks, and why are ''wakelocks'' wakelocks when you are using your phone and the screen is on?
I noticed that if I don't have internet access, the wakelock doesn't come up as much. It's some kind of app, maybe, it very much could be one of Google's, It ain't Viber (for me), I have tried disabling, turning it off, no change in wakelock amount.

To be honest i'm in the same condition u are in. I don't know whats causing these. Try greenifying Google+, Google Now etc. They have helped me a bit in saving some... Google+ updates/syncs, and that makes a wakelock as well.

Do You have Flash Player installed on Your Android device?
This is really weird, I restart the phone, use gmail, and some other apps, turn off screen, check for wake locks, no Audio wake lock at all, I open Chrome, use it a little and then check for wake locks and it has appeared and is at at the top, also other wakelocks have increased count.
Also another matter, I notice a little pop in the speakers sometimes, even though I have set to vibrate only mode.
EVERY TIME I TOUCH THE SCREEN THE SPEAKER TURNS ON, it is just quietly hissing, you need to be in complete silence to hear this. This is definitely causing a big battery drain, I need to fix this ASAP. Anyone has a clue?
Turned off touch sounds, hissing has disappeared. But it literally started hissing after I press anywhere on the screen, even though only a few buttons make a touch sound.
Got to stop typing now, my hands are burning when I'm using Google chrome on my nexus 4...
I disabled Google+ Notifications through Google+(app) > Settings > google account > notifications
And I turned off all Sounds, from Dial pad touch tones to screen lock sound and vibrate on touch. Now I had tried this before the Google+, but I still had the issue with the wakelock.
I get little to none of this wakelock, also turned off google+ backup feature. Disabled some sync options in google account.
But basically I get a lot less of this wakelock now, I am not entirely sure it was Google+, but I have been using the phone casually, as usual for 30+ Hours, charged once, and I get better battery life and much less of this wake lock, phone is mostly in sleep mode when screen is off, about 1-4 Minutes awake.
Now I don't guarantee anything, maybe it's some service that didn't start up this time, but I'm pretty sure that I had opened every app that I was using when I had the problem, this seems to have fixed the problem, see if it helps, if you are experiencing the same issue, and please let me know, thanks!
Oh and I have been using the phone's speaker indeed, for games, Youtube app, Chrome etc. and Received calls, messages, notifications.
Any solution? I'm still having this 1013 wakelock without apparent cause..

So am I the only one who has this lock screen clock "stuck" at a time time problem?

So am I the only one who has this lock screen clock "stuck" at a time time problem?
I am literally disgusted by this issue! It happened on the S4 I had, and I thought Samsung definitely has solved the problem but nah they didn't.
The problem is, the lock screen clock gets stuck at a time, and doesn't update with system time. No, it doesn't happen always, but it could happen at a time which could be really important, just like it happened today. I went to bed at 1 a.m, checked the phone when I temporarily woke up, the lock screen clock showed 3:44 a.m. I went back to sleep, suddenly I felt that there's a glimpse of sunlight on my windows, and checked the phone again, and it was actually 6:44 a.m.
Seriously speaking, I am fukcing tired of this problem. No I don't depend on the phone's lock screen clock, but the only time I check it is when I am in bed, sleeping, and that's when the problem has happened today.
Is there really no solution of this? Using a third party lock screen app or what?
Damn I am annoyed!
Maybe get a note 4?

Most likely you have Greenify-ed something that you should have not.
This happens sometimes, yes. Annoyed me to no end on my S3.
Personally I use Zooper Widget as a lockscreen. (if you set multiple widgets and create a second widget page, you can delete the default lockscreen page by longpressing and dragging it to the bin at the top..) I've not seen Zooper have this bug

Check any battery save application that you might use. I had the same problem and it was due to an application that was saving battery. Sometimes this happens when i had the power saving mode too.

All right. Does this Zooper Widget support SMS pop up and missed call notifications like stock Samsung lock screen?
I have no idea how to use a widget as a lock screen anyway

I do NOT have any battery saving applications installed. If there's one thing I don't care about in mobile phones, that's battery life. So Greenify, and all those apps are not in my phone obviously.
Just updating the topic with a screenshot of the problem which I was talking about. Was lucky to snap the screenshot yesterday before going to bed, cause usually as soon as I press the home button to take the screenshot the time use to update.
