I thought maybe we should have one thread where everyone having the same problem can come troubleshoot it.
On EB01, I have 100% awake time. I tried wiping and reinstalling fresh, but still sporadically it won't sleep. I've had some results turning off GPS, then back on. But that doesn't always work to resolve it.
Anyone else have anything they tried and it works consistently for them?
For me, if gps is on in the pull down shade, the phone doesn't sleep.
Probably a bug that will hopefully get addressed before release.

Confirmed issue heard from others btw. But where's the point of having gps even on when you don't need it? Just kills the battery anyways...

In all other versions, it wasn't actually "on" until an app needed it. In this version it's still not "on" it's just preventing the phone from sleeping.
Best practice for EB01 is to disable it until it's actually needed and then your battery life should significantly improve (assuming i'm not the only one that suffers this bug).

On DL09 I could keep it enabled and the only time it would "activate" was when I started Maps or the browser (Google is my homepage and i've enabled location sharing).
Either way my battery life is pretty much back to normal just by disabling GPS in the notification shade.
I've realized that upon boot, if I turn off GPS for a few minutes, turn it back on, then go into maps or latitude, the awake time will go back to normal. If I reboot and never go through this process, I'll get 100% awake time.
I seem to have forgotten where the awake time is displayed. Anyone refresh my memory?

I'm using spare parts from the market to access the battery stats.
settings > Battery use > Display > Time on
Is that what you're looking for?
Just download spare parts from the market. Its free and has tons of information and settings that you can tweak.
My maps are consuming battery of my phone. Even if I don't use it.
Why this is so? Around 15% of battery consumption is due to maps
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
root your device and use a program like autostarts from the market to freeze apps you dont want to start at boot , it simple and easy to do and youd be suprised at what starts up at boot in your app list .
i would then use titanium backup to freeze apps you dont use/need as this helps battery / ram / device from waking through apps telling it to etc etc
dont freeze maps obvously as you may need that and its important to have but defo stop it from starting at boot , unless you need it at boot but from your post you obvously dont
there is a list of stuff thats save to freeze on this forum the search bar is your friend
have a good day
Thanks but I don't wanna root my phone. Is there any other alternative?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
well even before i had rooted and stopped it at start , maps was never that high on my charts have you run latitude or anything? i heard this can drain battery in the background .
sounds like you have an app that is using maps in the back ground as on a normal set up (factory fresh etc) maps doesnt hammer the battery like that
it can probs be fixed by undoing an app or setting you have somewhere but its hard to say as its your phone and you know what youve done to it .
if it was factory fresh though i doubt/kinda know maps wouldnt be that high and draining battery though it never has on mine even when stock etc
hope you find the culprit soon but its hard to say what it could be as we dont know how you have it set up etc .
maybe try a fresh install??

I'm sure you are using Latitude. Log off and problem will be solved.
Yes, almost certainly Latitude - log out and stay out, you'll be amazed at the difference.

I second these. I've logged off of latitude and the battery life has extended by at least 60 - 70%. I used to get like around less than a day of usage, but now it goes a little over a day and a half with moderate usage. (Bluetooth, GPS, Browsing on HSPA and WiFi)
Also if you have remote tracking turned on, this can show up as maps in the battery monitor.

Yeah, my latitude was on.i logged it off.
Thanks every one for ur replies. Thanks a lot

You may have to reset maps in app settings to really get rid off it.
Clear data once I suggest, then the 1 minute wake calls will also be off, my experience.

why not it's highly recommended to root your phone, you can then freeze maps in titanium backup (and any other apps too)
not having the phone rooted is like having a computer without knowing the admin/root password
But there are some drawbacks of it also.
And if anything happens to my phone I will not be able to claim warrantee

I always see Maps very high in my battery usage, I was logged into Latitude. Logged out of that now.
Do you have remote controls enabled in Settings -> Location and Security? Wondering if this still means Maps will use a lot of battery.

Much more info is needed, to test if your phone has a problem remove all installed apps, charge to 100% and then check your batt stats. More likely than not something you installed is causing this.

Something is definitely wrong there. Wake lock should not even be showing up unless you are using some app to purposefully keep the phone awake or something. You must have a rogue app.

does betterbatterystats work on this phone? I use this on my S3 to find out what's keeping phone from deepsleep. Then you can find out which apps are keeping it up.
It's not whatsapp - I use that as well and I get 1-2 full days on a charge.
You've got a lot of apps running in your notification tray (top left) - I'd pull them all out... or better yet, FDR and don't opt to restore your Google config then start over.
Unless you want to list every app you have installed those are my recommendations.
Non Verizon SIM?

I have the very same issues, but only on GSM as soon as I am on Wifi battery life is excellent. I am using a German SIM card (in Germany) which works well (except of mobile hot spot). So I am suspecting some internal service looking for a Verizon service, which it obviously cannot find. Any thoughts?

Go into your dialer and type *#*#4636#*#* then hit the "phone information button" then scroll down to something that says "network types"or something along those lines and choose the "wdcma preferred" option. That might stop it from looking for vzw networks.

Thanks for the hint. But that does not solve the problem. I have installed juicedefender, which in its default setting seems to solve the problem. The battery life with juicedefender seems eternal . However, the phone is less "reactive" to email pushes etc.
I am getting the pro version of juicedefender, perhaps I can get down to the root.

My gf is having the same problem with her M. GSam said GMaps was wakelocked-looped...woke the thing 1,271 times in the 8 hours she had it unplugged. Auto-location reporting was turned on (wtf), switched it off but it kept dropping. ~10 hours off the cord with maybe 30 minutes use and it was at 6%. We'll see what happens tomorrow, but any ideas are much appreciated. I know more info is needed but it's kind of hard to pry into unrooted phones...we'll see.
I had the same problem two days ago. Two words for you... FAST DORMANCY (google it). Thats the culprit and is very telling with the first picture showing the phone is awake constantly when wifi is off and mobile data is on... you can test it yourself, compare battery drop rate with mobile data on and with wifi on.
Solution
1. Root phone, unfortunately you have to.
2. Download titanium backup
3. Freeze modemstatservice
4. Freeze fastdormancy.
Let me know if this helps you.
Thanks.. i just did freezing those 2 service.. lets see what will happen then...

Can you explain why titanium backup is needed?
I stopped the modemstatservice and fastdormancy services. Hope that works. I actually did a factory reset and thought for a short moment that it has improved, but that's not the case. I can stay a whole day with quiet a lot of browsing on Wifi and us up 20%. On 3G I drain 25% in 4h
So I bought titanium backup, freezed modemstatservice and fastdormancy.
No change in battery drain. I would like to know if all the other who have the same problem are running on a verizon SIM.
Until now nothing has worked. Under normal usage, I get a flat battery in about 16h. Normal means 2calls (<3min) and perhaps 5min of browsing.
I am having the same issue - coming from a Thunderbolt I am still happy with the battery as it is but if the wake lock could be resolved the battery would be awesome...
Not sure what is causing the gtalk spike as I removed that app...
ETA: running Jelly Bean leak & rooted... I also reflashed the leak wiping data, etc... with no change

Sorry to hear that this fix didnt work for you. Could you provide more info regarding your network and if possible some screenshot of betterbatterystats or something similar. Maybe *#*#4360#*#* > battery information might give me more information with regards to your problem.
Also, if you want to do really help eliminate more variables, try using ur phone on 3G without installing any apps.
I'll try to help you the best i could. :cyclops:

Maybe uninstalling gtalk and leaving an apk is causing the spike since it is trying to sync. Why not leave it on, also try reducing email refresh time to 1hr as oppose to the default (15 mins). Your battery life seems reasonable.
Wake Lock Questions:
Anyone know what the bam.dmux.wakekock is for? It says it's for a power management system but I don't know what that's supposed to do.
Also the Ssmdcnt10 wake lock?
Those are the two that are running on my phone and both are running like 36 minutes since I unplugged my phone this morning. Is this bad or is it something that I could allow to continue happening? Thx!

I froze mine and so far it has improved and I'm running the jellybean leak with root; HOWEVER my battery still drains fast and when I was on ICS my battery life was amazing so I'm actually probably going to revert back to that tomorrow. I fed the jellybean leak since it came out early last week and tried everything that I know to increase battery life but nothing works.

My N4 hasn't had good battery life compared to my GNex and its noticeable. I used Google now on the Gnex and I got like close to 3 hours or more of screen on give or take with the 2000mah extended battery depending on what i was doing with 25% brightness most of the time. But on my N4 with Google now I got like barely 2 hours at like 20% brightness which doesn't' make much sense seeing that the battery in the N4 is larger. So I decided to turn off Google now since I don't really use it and now I get a little over 2 and a half hours sometimes more. I'm guessing that's cause Google now isn't updating and all that cause I turned off all the location services and GPS except the "wifi &mobile network location" for certain apps or widgets and stuff. This is all leading up to my question. How or why maps is at the top of my battery usage and why it says its using GPS when I have it off? It never was at the top before the android OS or screen was there. Now I get better battery life but still the screen isn't the top drainer which is odd. Does anyone have any insight? Cause I can only imagine the battery life I could get out of this if everything worked properly. Cause idk if its a bad code thing or hardware.
And here are pics thanks guy's

Turn off WiFi under location access
But then I wont get any location data for certain apps or widgets. And that was never a problem on th GNex. Is that really the only option i would have?

Ok I did cause i haven't yet and i had to turn on GPS to do so. But now im back out i turned off GPS. What would doing that do exactly? If you dont mind elaborating?
If you never went through that step, some apps that request location will never get it and will keep sending requests draining the battery.

Is this a documented fact or something you came up with on your own? I am just wondering because Google Now does not work properly on my phone but it worked great on my Gnex.
Well I guess maps has a bug or its badly coded because like you guys said you still get the battery drain even when you seem to turn location stuff off. Well i did the same I have no Google now activated and it was a little better but id still get maps and it would even say the GPS was on for like hours in it on the GSam battery app So I just decided to force close Maps and since then I have no issue maps isnt even on the GSam radar and my battery life is much better I Can get 3 hours screen time with 15% brightness pretty easy and more if im not doing intensive stuff. Im hoping better code for Jellybeen or maps will come out soon to even make this higher or actually let me use maps and google now without such the drain.
Also I found that when I went to use Maps for directions the GPS getting "stuck" issue would come back so id have to force close to get that to stop and it seems that some apps that use GPS get stuck even though I switch it off like Gas Buddy which looks for gas around your location I tried it and turned on GPS then off when i was done and when i checked GSam it was at the top of my list because the GPS was stuck on and even force closing the app wouldnt shut it off so I had to uninstall and reinstall to stop it. I think it was just that it wasnt coded for 4.1.2 well so hopefully all those bugs will get worked out in the future. Hope this helps someone!
Not documented, but I have personally have 3 n4s map battery drain fixed this way. I heard here on xda, tried, and worked. So there are at least 4 people fixed this way. Of course, this is probably not the only battery bug/optimization issue in 4.2.1.

what they said. this is a huge + for why maps is being used. wished google disabled this from the start so people wouldnt mistaken the phone for having 'poor battery life'
same issue! battery usage as GPS
I'm actually having the same issue (i know this is old)
All my settings are correct, even with force closing the app (GPS and Facebook sometimes) the battery usage will be #1, and the GPS on time under details will be constantly ticking. As I refresh the battery usage, the GPS timer will continue to go up.
Only way I figured to solve this is to reboot my phone.. anyone else experiencing similar issues?
I did! I just noticed this problem in the last 2 days and I found this post.
Does google know about this problem? Will there any patch release for this bug?
I can confirm the same thing with this gps issue.
There's a bug report filed. Vote for it to make it more visible to devs.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=52236&q=Gps%20usage%20when%20off&sort=-id&colspec=ID%20Type%20Status%20Owner%20Summary%20Stars
Experiencing it both on Google stock 4.3 Galaxy Nexus and Slim Bean 4.3 Nexus 4. Battery stats show GPS running under Google maps after switching GPS off using quick settings tile, after switching off location services in phone settings and even after switching off location in Google settings app. Only reboot stops good usage in battery stats.
This is very annoying. Have anybody fixed it? Any advice appreciated.

You have exactly the same finding of mine (although I may have better punctuation)
The GPS is stuck on even when you killed the map and turn OFF the GPS in the settings already.
And you are right, every app that use the GPS can have this "bug". (I used Yelp a lot and battery status always shows that its GPS usage is on even after I turned off GPS)
In GSAM battery monitor it does not show a high usage though, I guess it does not actually drain battery.
And this issue is still appearing in Android 4.3 with Google map 7.2.0
Hey,
I'm running stock nexus 4. I have been having terrible 8 hour battery life with "Android OS" taking up all the battery in battery status. BetterBatteryStats tells me that "sns_perioidic_wakelock" and "sns_async_ev_wakelock" is using up most of the battery. See attached. Any idea what apps are causing this?

I'm pretty sure I've seen those wakelocks when making a lot of phone calls. Seems likely related to cell radio use some how, but that's just a guess.

Actually the crazy thing is that i have airplane mode with wifi on most of the day cause I have really bad service. And I only have 100 minutes of talk, so I never talk on the phone.

Just checked mine and those wakelocks are really low today despite several phone calls, I've been on wifi all day though. The right way to figure those wakelocks out is to download the kernel source from one of the devs github and do some searches through the source to see where those wakelocks are logged. You might also search the battery impression thread in general, some smart folks have dissected many kernel wakelocks in there. Seems weird that you would have them in airplane mode.

I have the exact same issue. Wakelocks/Android OS killing my battery (Android OS usually 45% or higher when it should be my screen that is the biggest battery sucker).
I barely use my phone to make phone calls as well. I'd say 1 call every 2 or 3 days.
Same exact wakelocks here. I made 0 phone calls. There is defiantly something up.
I had these two wakelocks too and it turned out to be my live wallpaper that was causing it

Solution in my case, delete widget locker....... My Nexy sleeps again:angel:

Im Running stock kernal and Rom and i still get sns_periodic_wakelock and sns_async_ev_wakelock Does anyone have any idea what they are or what causes them or how to fix? They seem to be on the whole time my phone is on and they suck battery crazy not as bad as most but my android os is always 2nd battery use to my screen or more depending on how i use it and it sucks cause i know i would have pretty awesome battery life if these were fixed or gone. I appreciate any help!
Apparently you can also add: lightflow vibrate on pickup feature and adding a widget to the lock screen..
PowerManagerService and sns periodic wakelock are my main culprits but I'm not sure these numbers mean there's an issue or not...
I just checked BBS for todays use and I have on 9h use 4h on sns_periodic_wakelock. I have been using DashClock on my lockscreen. I will remove that and post back later to see if that helped.:cyclops:
Hmm can anyone say if this looks problematic?

Yes it does look problematic.
Basically sns_periodic_wakelock kept the device from sleeping for almost three hours.
I have the same issue and don't know what's causing it.
EDIT: Apparently live wallpapers do.
Just writing back to tell you guys how it went. I removed DashClock from my lockscreen and that wakelock seemed to be gone for a few days.
I then later updated the app, and just by updating it, I think it caused the wakelock. This time I'm uninstalling and checking if it comes back again.
Is there a known list of apps suspected of causing this?

I've had dashclock for the past two days.. Not seeing any wake locks. I have all the extensions from the app enabled.
Sns is related to facebook. If you use Titanium backup, go to apps and you can see a blue icon with a letter f on it that looks like facebook letter and labelled sns. Uninstall that and your lovely nexus 4 will enjoy its sleeeeep....
