Getting bad battery life from maps?

I got the phone yesterday and rooted it.
I never even touched maps once and it used a lot of of my battery.
I might have used Google now and S voice once to try it out, maybe the maps is updating from that?
How can I stop this?

I think you just go into your maps go to settings and turn off the location services. It'll still be able to locate if you have it off.

You can also convert it to user app in Titanium Backup, and then greenify it.

more than likely its because your maps is tracking your location. for latitude or for location history. try disabling all those features within maps.

Thanks guys did the disable location thing

Mine were fine on both CM7 and stock based ROM.

Help and what happened - aospa browser downloaded 1GB of data.

So today I got this nice notice of Android that I'm reaching my mobile data cap. So as it seems, is that the aospa browser downloaded 1GB of data in the background during the night between 1 and 2 november.

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I'm very concerned on what caused this and costed me €10 of mobile data. I deinstalled the browser from /system/apps for now. I don't use the aospa browser myself, I use Google Chrome.
Can I check somewhere, or in some logs what it did and what caused it?
BTW, the data is really used, and not just a bug in the "Data Usage"-tab, as my carrier states I only got 178MB left for the month.

Have u done any speed tests for the your mobile data? Usually that eats a lot of data; even just doing one test.

No, and besides that would turn up that the speedtest app would have consumed that data, and even in the background.
Specifically the aospa browser downloaded 1.05GB in the BACKGROUND.

Thread closed so the OP can create a new one in Android Q&A, as per request.

[Q] SafeStrap Storage

Hey Everyone!
Today I flashed SHOstock via SafeStrap v3.71 (MK2). I had a lot of internal storage. However, after flashing the ROM to rom-slot-1, I get a persistent message on the notification panel stating that "storage space is running low".
Storage apps in the app store say that I have 8.1 GB of internal storage, but the phone's storage settings states that I only have 145 MB of available space.
14.44 GB is being devoted to system memory which seems like an incredibly high amount.
Could someone explain what is going on and how I could rectify this issue?
Thank you in advance!

16gb phones have around 9.5 useable and 32gb phones have 22gb or so. Nothing we can do.

I understand that, however I have more free space than the rom in safestrap is showing. That is the problem.

When I open storage with the slot1 rom, this is what I see:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
However, this is how much space I should have:

Don't you adjust the size of it when you create a rom slot? Whatever the slot size that you create will depend on what your free space will be. That is my understanding anyway.

ram use

Excited just received in the new S7 edge in, I open the smart manager, found that in ram option, total 4GB ram but has 671MB reserved, and almost 65% already used, even end all, still almost 50% used, I don't know if this happen to everyone, if yes, is there any way to release that 671MB ?

The 671mb is probably for the graphics video RAM.

The reserved part is for system devices like the GPU. Worry less about the numbers and see if your apps and tabs remain open when multitasking.

This

Android will keep recently / frequently used apps in RAM so when you want to access them again they don't need to load from storage. That speeds things up. Linux (Android) isn't Windows, and having a bunch of free RAM doesn't accomplish anything except slow down multi-tasking.

Can you provide us with a screenshot, Thanks.
