Hi all,
recently I bought a i9505 (with Snapdragon 600), it was a Vodafone branded version so, just the time to come back at home and I flashed with ODIN latest Italian version on sammobile (I9505XXUAMDM_I9505ITVAMDB_I9505XXUAMDM_HOME.tar) and rooted with CF-Auto-Root-jflte-jfltexx-gti9505.tar .
The problem is about the micro lag that plagues this phone .. so I checked in developer side of the phone the CPU load and I found a very very high load, a lot of time it's more than 100.

The phone is almost empty, just facebook, whatsapp and other 3 apps. How is possible all this CPU load and this microlag ?
Maybe stock rom bugged ?
Can someone check if his S4 has same loads ?
Thank you all!
The CPU load on my phone while going through settings, checking notification center and just looking at the home screen is low. I didn't see it go over 35%. Is your list always that long? Mine is usually about the length that it is in the screenshot attached but does go beyond half the screen for a second or two sometimes.

On first, thanks for your reply.
About your 35%, this is not a percentual, it's a time of CPU, is a bit more complex, you can find a explanation here.
Yes, my list is more long then a page some times..
My old GNexus hardly went beyond 2, or 3 values.. Maybe Samsung ROM are very heavy, but this is so high..
About battery, is normal mine consumption (in attachment) ? Because high CPU consumption may reduce highly battery duration.
Let me know.
Thank you
Are welcome everyone experiences!

Ye, rebooting, the high cpu load reduces (to 2 or 3) and after some moments (10-15min) turn back to 50/60..
Is I9505XXUAME2 from Austria ?
My I9505XXUAMDM (latest of Italy) is a bit more older then yours.. maybe I should try it..

I'm sorry, you are right.
I made some screenshot of today, I charged at 100% the phone yesterday night and this morning (in air plane mode) it lost 6%, my old GNexus after 9 hours of air plane hardly lost 1%..
As you can see after this reboot the media scanner disappear..
Maybe I blocked some apps too much?
Was looking through the pictures you posted. It actually seems pretty normal. One thing about the google play services is that people have reported that it was eating CPU time. The reason behind is the added google sync services. To reduce the usage, go to your google account on your phone and uncheck useless stuff like "movies, books" etc.
It doesn't matter if you block too many apps.
Also, one last thing. The standby time varies from phone to phone. Gnex and sgs4 are inherently different phones. 6% overnight is rather acceptable.
P.s.if you find this of help, I recently added the donate button. I wouldn't mind a beer or two

Hello guys, i think everybody update their phone to kitkat, and all knows about the battery drain caused of this wakelock related the modem (3g network) . For example when you are connected on 3g the battery drain alot also on deep sleep and its not good.
I heard that qualcoom has investigate in this issue but there is nothing new to fix it. So im asking everyone who have this problem if there is a new fix or something like that, also because there was an hudge update (ANDROID 4.4) but the problem almost for me, is still there. How could google release a new firmware without an hardware revision? this bug is present from android jelly bean.
If someone knows how to fix it please let me know because i can use only 2g to arrive at a day of battery usage with data connected. Thank you advance

I remember to read the solution in some thread...
1. Disable location
2. Reboot
Check if worked for you, it worked for me

Oh ok i will try, do you mean disable location under geolocation setting ?
As far as i've read about it, this will never be really solved.
It's some sort of a high speed interconnect between the cpu and the radio and these devices simply have to communicate. Some other soc's have the radio embedded, but the Mako doesn't.
Allthough it shows up as a wakelock, it doesn't really consume that much power.

This is absolutely right, some developers confirmed that. It's not possible to fix. But it's draining much battery, that's why I never use 3G/H.

i never use wifi, only my data signal. ive never had extra drain because of this, only great battery life. especially while the device is sleeping, almost no battery loss overnight(1%). maybe the quality of your data signal isnt very good.

hey guys looks like it's work. I want to ask you what do you mean disable location under geolocation setting? sorry it's very noob question but can you become more spesific about this?
thank you
Basically what I observed is:
When I stay at home all day on WiFi this wake lock will only add some minutes.
When I'm at work driving around a lot through lots of different mobile cells with varying coverage and signal this wake lock can add to up to 2 hours per day for me.

Buddy there is no a fix because this wakelock is caused from crappy radio interface of the nexus 4. You basically can use 2g istead 3g, go on setting and disable geolocalization and put it from device only, then go on account settings tap google and disable unwanted sync. This will help a bit but keep in your mind, in this phone when 3g is on battery will be crappy in all cases ?

This started happening about a week ago... I didn't install any new apps in particular. I've attached screenshots to the post.
Screen-on time is a little below an hour in these screenshots.
As you can see Android OS and Android System are at the top of the list by a long shot. Android System seems "normal" in the sense that it has 58mn of CPU time and only 18mn of wakelocks (as reported by the built-in battery menu).
Android OS however kept the phone awake for 6h11 which seems like a lot. I'm not rooted, so I did the ADB USB trick in order to pull stats out of Wakelock Detector, and all of the apps clearly don't add up to six hours. Especially not the usual suspects like Google Services, Facebook, etc.
Diagnosis shows a LOT of system processes, and I'm not sure if that means 1) it's all good as far as user land goes (I don't have any weird apps) 2) there's a system process gone rogue for some reason 3) the cause isn't showing up 4) something else???
Does anyone have any idea what's going on?
I have the same issue. Tried greenifying everything. No dice. I reboot, phone fine, then stays away. I will say that my battery life is good though, but this riddle is driving me nuts
Here is my issue, look at away bar.

Me too - 910F - im on Lollipop, but struggling to make it through a day at the moment.
Checking my Battery Graph is the same Story - my phone seems to be Awake constantly.
Seems Android System is using it....
Anyone have any ideas?
I can only recommend rooting your phones and change roms or kernels.
TW is heavy on battery and if you change to a CM rom the battery life will increase dramatically.
I have rooted all my phones since the very first android phone ever made and i cannot own a non rooted device as the freedom of rooting is just to awsome to ignore.
Every time i have battery issues i ether change my rom or kernel and then my issues goes away...
Can't root Verizon unfortunately
Hmm. Try this. Unchecked under advanced wifi, the option to let Google and apps use wifi, even when wifi off. Since then, 12 hours, I have had normal sleep. Did reboot after Unchecked. . Premature to say I fixed it, but so far so good.
Update. Since unchecking that wifi option, phone sleeping normally still.
Update #2- after 36 hours. It's back! Awake constantly. Unreal

I get through entire day... About 3.5 screen hours on. At 7pm I'm at 20% typically. Maybe that's bad?

I'm usually around 40%. but maybe our app-age is different.

Hi, on my s6 edge+ the temperature stated by HW Monitor says 55C (131F) , and sometimes rises to 70C (158F) then drops back to 55C (131F) or 45C (113F). I got it from Dubai and I am using it in the UK. It is the G928C model. Is this normal/is anyone else having this issue? Should I try factory resetting it and erasing all data?
Also the second problem is that I feel the battery runs out quick! Does anyone else feel like this? It only lasts about 14-15 hours from full 100% charge to empty battery. And I'm only using apps such as youtube, instagram, messenger, facebook.

Never had heating issues even after intensive gaming. However, if you're using apps like youtube or gaming during charging, I'm sure the temperature would considerably go up . Also, apps like YouTube, Instagram and Facebook are actually pretty heavy. They stream a lot of data over the network and would definitely affect your battery life.
Try turning on the Power Saving mode, I'm sure that would help a lot. In my phone (AT&T), I get 6 hours of screen on time and upto 24 hrs of usage (withing 6 hrs screen on) very easily even with wifi & data turned ON all the time.

Hi, sometimes the phone is a bit unresponsive as well. For example, when turning it on after locking it, there is a long delay and then when i click the lock button again the screen flashes because the lock button has been clicked twice (wake then lock)

This is the time when you should rush back to your retailer and get it exchanged!
"Edge+ and lag associated together" isn't something I have seen on my handset yet, no matter what application I have used even with the Battery Saving mode turned on.

I got my new Finow X3+ watch this past week and although I'm really impressed with the look, speed and overall capability of the device, all of that means squat when it can't make it past 8 or 9 hours on a good day with very limited use (basically only checking the time and notifications with only BT tether and cell on, no WIFI).
Not sure if it was bad OTAs that I installed when I got it or what's going on but I think it has something to do with phone not sleeping..If anyone can give tips to save battery that you've found for unrooted x3+ please let me know.
Also does anyone know of a way to disable the pedometer hardware as I'm pretty sure that's the a big issue. Thanks guys
The cell network is the batt hogger. What do you expect from that tiny batt? Because Watch standby is perfect.

It's true, since turning off cell service I can usually get almost a full day (7am-10pm) just using it as a companion watch with m2d but it's disappointing not being able to use it the way I thought I could.
But how are you getting 3.5 days on one charge? I don't think mine goes into full deep sleep possibly because pedometer always logging info? Please let me know if you know how to disable the pedometer constantly running since I'd rather use it and the Heart monitor on an "as needed" basis. Any help is appreciated.
You have installed this update?
Yea I did...should I not have installed it?
I read that drains the battery, you've seen any change?

Yea I turned off the ios push notification like you're showing in your pic, was taking about 10% battery in mine too. It didn't have any effect on notifications from phone to watch cause I don't use iPhone. Saved good amount in battery too.
So you know how I can disable pedometer if that's possible?

I force closed ios notifications from the running apps list but for some reason it still takes some battery. Anyway I solved my issue: I did factory reset and then downloaded a phone booster app someone recommended on the Google group page.
Went from ~8-10 hours light use to about a day and half on one charge with moderate use. If anyone has battery life issues for seemingly no reason then try this. Thanks for your help mad.

Hi all,
I am very satisfied with my device except for the battery life. I always had like 3-4 hours SOT. I was not happy but it was OK.
Lately I started charging the device every day after work (I would come home with dead phone after only 8-9 hours of it being unplugged).
So I thought the battery is defective, I must change it... and I did change it yesterday. The thing is that even the new battery behaves almost the same. It approved somewhat and now I will return home with 10% battery instead of dead phone 1 hour ago. But still the battery is terrible...
Can anyone help me, share some advice on how to improve it? I have disabled many software (even facebook), disabled location... did everything I could think of.
I am thinking some app is drawing the juice but cannot put my finger on any of them.
Some screenshots are attached that might help with your tips/advices.
Thanks!

Are you rooted? On nougat? If so get background restrictor APK here on XDA and kill background apps and tasks so they can't run if you do not open them. Lower screen brightness. Install kernel auditor and shut off cores 4 and 8.

uninstall chrome. Then try accubattery (better bcause after android 7, they join all in android system to mask each app consumption. If after this you still can't find out where's the problem, start the phone in "safe mode". Even the consumption is better in this mode you must do a full wipe in recovery mode (vol up+power+home) and after this, reinstall one app each time and see after reinstall the second one and so on until you find out in which app is draining the battery
If you want you can starting by disabling background data in settings but I think isn't the clearer way to find out
This is going to surprise you.
I've had this phone for years and I've tried everything - and the BEST result is when you DON'T DO ANYTHING except disable Facebook and Instagram, and any Google Apps you don't use.
Do not tamper with anything else.
I figure that Samsung tunes this phone so tightly that if you leave it alone it operates as it should.
Anytime I disabled anything else, battery life suddenly and drastically reduced.
The phones runtime software kicks in and if you have disabled something it checks routinely, it will keep the phone awake constantly looking for a ping back from that process.
I just went through the whole process again meticulously, App by App.
Also DO NOT enhanced messaging OR the device antivirus. If you have, you must reset and then train yourself not to engage these too regardless of how hard The phone tries to persuade you!
Then - the battery life becomes like a normal phone which means you'll still need to charge everyday but it will take you through a full heavy day... And this is fantastic!
Honestly try it and you'll see what I mean. The S6 edge plus is so finely tuned, anything you block will start a feedback loop.
I had similiar problems , the way i fixed it, i disabled/uninstalled all samsung applications what i dont use, i disabled/uninstalled all google applications what i dont use. Cold weather (like -20C) will affect the battery life too.
Disable / uninstall apps you dont need. That helped me a lot and got even more battery life while at stock nougat rom with all updates installed.
try wiping cache from recovery and reboot your phone.
I hope this helps you
