Battery drain on GPS even though it's off? - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

This app is giving me huge battery drain. I removed the weather app on rayglobe g flex ROM as was draining battery. Now I get this. GPS is fully off. Why the hell is it still using it :S ??

probably sync settings. Not sure.
you can try freezing it or deleting at own risk. Or try those location settings.
I dont have this but thats what I would do

Here, I found which all has it. At own risk. LG weather theme. Found by opening in Rom toolbox the app info for it.
Its either in root\app\data or in root\system\app.
At own risk, delete or freeze.
what I would do is copy to sdcard then delete, if not freeze.
Reboot recovery, wipe cache+dalvik

Android OS background data use?

My data use in the background by my os is using a lot of data. Is this abnormal for a week of use? Seems excessive to me
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
My HTC one only uses about 2mb of data per day for comparison.

Att has nothing to do with it...it has to be one of your apps...something is constantly syncing/and or jot stopping its data use...I suggest a factory reset through kies or odin if rebooting the phone doesnt resolve the issue

I faced the same problem, issue was somewhat with auto backup of data, sync of app data & people details in google account,
BUT the main culprit in my case was uTorrent application.
Even though there was no torrent added to it, i didn't even opened it,
it was using 1GB data daily on WiFi and in data usage it was coming under Android OS usage. I uninstalled it, everything went back to normal.
So try to look for such apps which eat up your data in background, it may not be an error of android OS as such.
Hope this helps, Press THANKS if it did help you
Enjoy

battery draining issue

I bought a new I9505 for my girlfriend. it seems to have very serious battery draining problem. a standard over night standby, doing nothing, wifi connected, battery would drain 30~50%. I tried many different roms and kenrnels, they all work the same way. I also tried deleting batterystatus information file, still no luck. could anybody tell me what's going on with the i9505?
here are some screendhots of the battery usage.

Nope, can't tell you why. Get better battery stats and figure out what's keeping your phone awake and using the battery.
It'll be an app she has installed. You have to find out which one through process of elimination

Wild guess here, try turning off Miracast in the notification bar toggles.
Nope, it off already...

I know the music player and video player also use dlna like example you can connect to wifi and stream music and videos from another device via dlna
This is nuts, it takes the equivalent of two hours screen time... And I don't even use it!
So the only way to disable it is by purchasing titanium backup?

Try going to settings application manager all then click on dlna and clear data force stop disable and see what happens
Did it, we'll see what happens...

Strangely the same thing just popped up for me. I've had the phone a week and never noticed dlna when looking at my battery stats. Today the phone appeared to be using more battery and dlna was the top offender for battery usage.
The app will not stop, I've cleared data and cache, tried to force stop and it just won't. I'm really not sure what is using it.
I added a lockscreen widget for the quick remote app yesterday night. I've removed that to see if it was causing dlna to run more, it doesn't seem like it should but who knows.

I wasn't either, but just today it started. I finally got the DLNA process to stop, going to watch closely and see if it kicks back on again.

[ISSUE] Battery drain com.google.process.location

So, I'm trying to pinpoint exactly what keeps using this process (com.google.process.location) any ideas? I've looked at other threads... No luck. I do use Google now... Would this affect this even if I've placed location history and location reporting off? Another app which I think is the issue is "find my friends" would this happen to be using up my location even though I have put the location reporting off in Google settings? Thanks for any help.

However, I don't want to always have to put on and off location settings when I use something like maps.

Your not turning off your GPS. Your turning off the wireless network which cause the Google services drain.

I think I solved such an issue on one of our s4 by uninstalling maps app (restore original) and reinstalling

WiFi phone

Hi I was just wondering what can I delete in my system app/ wakeblock to just have my phone work only on WiFi. I don't have service anymore and I know that having all the service stuff on here drains my battery. Or dose it not matter? Thanks!
Sent from my SPH-L720 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
I would honestly leave it, removing could actually cause drain. Just put it in AP mode and use WiFi

That's what I was thinking. ^^^
I know from experience. That stuff is built into the framework. Basically so deeply integrated that you would have to modify other things that I'm not even gonna go into.
