Since upgrading to KitKat (4.4.2) using the Google factory image and the flash-all I have had horrendous battery life. I've gone from 24-36 hours of battery to about 5-6 hours and I'm a fairly minimal user.
The drain seems to be coming from Android OS, in particular the Keep Awake is often 1-3 hours. After reading about others with the problem I did a factory reset and this seemed to resolve the issue but it's come back again. It's funny because it's fine at home, I've gone most of Christmas with no problems. Then I've come back to work and straight away my battery is getting kaned again.
I can't look for wakelocks because I'm not rooted and don't want to root. However I've tried experimenting by turning off location services, turning off wifi, and finally I've turned data off and this has done the trick. I'm wondering if it is something to do with 3g because I don't have any problem when on wifi at home.
The only thing I'm wondering is if I've got the right version of the radio, I had some problems when I was flashing so I did it again, everything seems fine but is there any way to tell if I've got the right radio rom?
Thanks in advance
Nick.
If you're data signal is weak it would use more power then say a good signal. Try using 2g only and see if that's any better.
How did you flash via adb I presume or OTA . Did you not flash the latest radio.
The end of your baseband number in settings will tell you what radical you're on , latest I believe is 98.

Thanks for suggestion but where I am sat has excellent signal (green in the mobile network signal under battery stats), I'm in the city centre sat in exactly the same spot I have been in for the last 18 months. This only started happening immediately after the 'upgrade' to KitKat.
I flashed using adb with the phone in fastboot. I did it like this to get a clean install because I've previously rooted the phone and I was having issues with the OTA update.
My baseband version is M9615A-CEFWMAZM-2.0.1700.98, is this correct?
As I've said previously I do not wish to root the phone again. It's possible this is not necessarily 3g, it might just be one of the apps having a wakelock but it becomes more evident on a 3g connection.
Is there any way I can get to the bottom of a wakelock on KitKat witout root?
The best way would probably be to uninstall each app one by one until you find the culprit , without root thought any game progress e.t.c will be lost unless it can be saved.
Checking only the apps that require data like Facebook e.t.c. will speed things up a bit.
Is anything showing under the inbuilt battery app ?.
Sorry but that's all I can think of , maybe someone with more knowledge can help. J

This was a problem for me when when stocked and unrooted, and without root you can not determine the real problem because battery stats will not be detailed enough. But problem is probably msm_hsic_host or something like that which is consume battery when phone is in sleep and even data is off. Actually some app is requesting data (which is off) and 3g modem keeps phone awake. My advice will be, fully charge your phone, from setting select 2g connection, data disabled(auto sync also), reboot your phone if battery is lower than %100 charge again and use it or do this before bed and sleep . Your problem would be solved for this condition. Some say google adressed this issue in 4.3 and 4.4 but I think it is still there for some reasons. BTW use 3g network only for internet otherwise it is just a battery drain, you gain nothing in terms of talk quality(and swithching between 2g and 3g is really painful). I solve my problem by rooting and install xposed framework and install gravity box and use status bar switches to change between 2g and 3g and believe me it is wonderful(no ART unfortunately). I know I talked too much but mai problem is probably 3g modem and you need root to solve it

Bende de var vallahi aynı sorun ama 2gde ve kernelliyim.Dur bir soriyim yabancılar.
İ have the same issue too,only with some minor differences,such as im always using 2g,im rooted,at the stock rom and also have a franco kernel installed on N4.What can i do sometimes?
4636v2 app from the play store will allow you to switch 2g / 3g without root. In fact there's quite a few apps that do that no need for exposed or root if that's the way you want to go.

I thought I would share my recent findings with all of you as it appears battery consumption is a hot topic. First of all I've never had a probem with battery consumption on my DHD, I've always been happy and I'm still happy. This is just an observation.
In my house I have a good wifi signal everywhere except in my bedroom, when I'm lying in bed it can lose connection every now and then, this has not really been a problem until 2.3. It's as simple as this, if I leave wifi on with a fully charged battery next to my bed the next morning there is 10-15% battery left, if I turn wifi off then the next morning there will be 75-85% battery left.
If I'm at work with wifi on all day even though it's not connected to a wifi connection when I go home there is still at least 60% left. Clearly if you leave wifi on connected to a network and the signal drops out every now and then or if the signal is poor expect your battery to be exhausted in no time. Leaving wifi on is not the problem, well in my case it isn't, it all depends on the signal strength of what you connecting to.
Same here . and if you have a good wifi signal the battery life is much much way better than using 3g connection

This is normal behaviour, when wifi is on it will try to reconnect if it loses network, hence in your case it is continually reconnecting to the wifi and draining the battery, if this is a new issue with 2.3 it may be curable by flashing one of the older radios as it may be an issue with the new radio?
same probllem
i have the same problem with my DHD, i have stock rooted rom 2.3.3, and my bettery is draining at an alarming rate, cause it always trying to reconnect to wifi network. but the main prb is that wifi signal is strong, as my laptop has excellent signal, but my phone is strange, sometimes it has full signal, sometimes it drops and completely disconnects from wifi. as i move it arround a bit it reconnects. if i flash an older radio will it resolve this prb? and how do i flash an older radio?

You need to be Radio S-OFF to flash the radio, but if you didn't have the problem previously just try downgrading with one of the RUU's listed here
which will re-flash the older radio which should put you back to before the upgrade, a work round for now is to turn wi-fi off when not actually using it at least for now. BTW this problem doesn't appear to be present in the GB custom rom's so must be some tweak by HTC that has gone awry.
i've searched trough the forum and found some answers. htc made gb drop wifi connection when the signal drops bellow -88dcbl. cusom roms have a drop limit of 101dcbl. i was on stock (only rooted) GB 2.3.3 . I've downloaded kingdoms custom rom v1.7 intalled it but i get blank screen, only wallpaper, and can't get any further. like unlocking screen and getting in to the menu. would you recommend a custom rom that's most stable for DHD? btw my phone is rooted and all OFF. i flashed like... 4 radios all the same problem, so... stock roms are no good.

Do not need to change a custom ROM, and there is a wifi connection fix (decrease the drop threshold) flashable patch zip.
Sorry I have forgotten where is it, but I think you can search and find it among the forum.

i use coredroid v7.0 now... and it's the best rom till now, i've tested 80% or custom roms on this forum. it's the most stable and complete rom. i'm sticking to it.
Basically as the title says, my note3 is constantly waking up while on 4g. it doesnt stay in a deep sleep. over the last few days i have done some experimenting erasing apps and turning them off and force stopping. i am pretty sure it is the android system itself not a app i have. i barely have any apps installed. i use maildroid, its setup to push and checks only every 6 hours. i use fleksy for a keyboard. and hoverchat for texting. using nova for a launcher, swipe up for swiping up. pretty simple and clean i keep all of the eye tracking nfc stuff like that off just using it as a simple powerful phone to browse the internet and text.
background. i had the kitkat leak that was posted here in jan i loved it becides everything would stop responding constantly. but the battery life was amazing. so i backtracked went to the 4.3 release then did the official update with the instructions on these boards. immediatly i noticed the battery life was less and the phone wasnt staying alseep so i started the troubleshooting. it has been over a week since the update too i know sometimes new roms take a few days to stablize. but it hasnt.
so what would cause a phone to be constantly being woken up while on 4g only? the pics i included show it. the first about half of the 4 hr 38 minute one part of data i am on 4g only. the long bar of being awake at the start and end of the 4g time is me playing music. the only screenshot the first 1/3 is on 4g only. no music only texting and internet didnt use it much today.
thanks for reading
Grab wakelock detector or Better Battery Stats and let it run for a few hours, then post the log if using BBS - and check the wakelocks, it's possible your signal is fluctuating too much and causing the device to constantly seek. But a wake lock monitor will pretty much tell you exactly what it is.

I was under the impression that wakening detection doesn't work with kit kat unless rooted? I use gsam battery app sometimes and it is basically the kernal it seems.
for most of my time with the phone I am in downtown of a major city with amazing 4g when it is doing it
Update
Tried a wipe reset and it worked great tested off and on WiFi. No drain at all when screen was off. Installed apps slowly and tested and all was good. Then I left the phone on the charger overnight woke up and it was back to the being awake often when on 4g only. I am stumped any new idea's?
hmmm... reminds of of fast dormancy during the S3 days... I wonder if it applies to Note 3

Read up and figured out that its the customer. Xml file It is turned to on I tried editing it but cannot save it because it is protected file I guess. Any other way to save it?
Seems to be the bam_dmux_wakelock I googled it seems to be only when not on WiFi which is my issue. Just gotta figure out the rest
Anyone know how to edit that customer. Xml file? Fast dormacy and the bam_dmux_wakelock seem to go hand in hand. Phone was all over the place today I have 47 minutes of that wakelock with about 6 hours of off WiFi time so it's a decent drain
Hello!
I recently put a new battery into my Nexus 7 2012 3G. Before that I had roughly 17 hours of standby time (I did nothing with it, it just sat in my backpack while I'm at work), now it's exactly the same.
Now I know that in a case like this the battery has to go through a few charging cycles before everything works at 100% capacity but I did that. I put it in on Wednesday last week and I discharged and recharged it four times already without seeing any sort of improvement.
There is an issue with the wakelocks on the Nexus 7 as far as I remember. I did try different Kernels a few months ago but those didn't help and the tablet just sat on my shelf most of the time since then because it was pretty much useless to me because of the low batterylife. Right now it's running with stock ROM and Kernel.
Do you have any suggestions for me? Does the battery need more charging cycles? Are there any new Kernels or ROMs now that completely fix these issues? I really want to use this damn thing again, especially now that I spent 40 bucks on a new battery that I can't return because I threw away the old one! :good:
Thanks in advance!
Mathias
No ideas? You got some change? Come on, help a guy out!
Have you used any apps to try and hunt down any wakelocks? You may have a rogue app or service or something causing problems. Try GSAM battery monitor, it has a great detailed breakdown of this. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gsamlabs.bbm&hl=en .
17 hours of standby definitely sounds low to me. I'm currently running Dirty Unicorn v8.2 (final KK release) with the included kernel and could go for days on standby. I haven't run stock since the initial purchase of the device (almost 2 years ago now), so not sure about what's "normal" on stock, but that sounds low to me either way.
BTW i have a grouper not a tilapia, but that shouldn't make any difference.
Thanks I will try monitoring it with that!
Mine went on for days as well. But then, completely out of the blue and from one day to the next, the standby time went to ****.
I am pretty busy this week, but that just let's me monitor it properly for a few days while it sits on my bag. I will try flashing a different ROM and Kernel this weekend. Thanks!
I have _very_ good experiences with all kinds of SlimRoms. I have the grouper device, but with SlimBean (4.3) I had standby times for up to 10 days with wifi + sync on! My Samsung SIII has SlimBean on it and I have 3 days standby
When discussing battery issues, there's a huge difference between the wifi-only (Grouper) and wifi + 3G (Tilapia)versions of Nexus 7 2012.
I have a Tilapia, and battery life sucks. There's a bug in the OS, ever since day 1. Meaning that switching roms will have minimal effect.
Been there done that.
You should run some kind of battery monitor as PrizmaticSmoke suggested. I use BetterBatteryStats ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809 ).
Running the monitor for a day or so, will most likely show that there's a constant wakelock named "baseband xmm power", chewing through your battery in about 24 hours.
Even putting the device in flight mode doesn't kill the wakelock.
I have resorted to manually selecting a 3G network and then removing the sim. I now have stand-by for about 5 days.
Tommmii, even after just 1 hour of monitoring it "baseband xmm power" is already at the top of the wakelocks that suck the battery dry.
I followed your suggestion of selecting a 3G network and removing the SIM card, but that didn't help me. I still lose about 7% during one hour of standby.
@Matttis
not to rub salt into your wound...I'm getting 0.6% / H, when the tablet is in deep sleep.
There is some good news from your monitoring, at least you know there's nothing wrong with the hardware.
The not-so-good part is that there isn't a 100% sure fix for that wakelock, all I have read point towards hit & miss solutions.
I am not willing to experiment with my own tablet, since that might bring back that pesky wakelock which has now been away for 2 months.
Are you actually using the 3G, or would you be a happy camper "downgrading" your Tilapia to a wifi-only Grouper, with the gain of normal batery-life ?
cheers,
Tom.
My boss recently gave me a SIM with a 5GB LTE plan, I might actually be better off if I just use the hotspot of my phone instead
So yeah, I'd be down with that! I do use the 3G feature, but if that means that I will get normal battery life again... You mean flashing the rom of a non-3G N7?

yup, that is the only thing I will experiment with.
Untill then, here is what i remember doing to get rid of the wakelock:
I was in another country with a prepaid burner sim.
I had manually selected the sim's network, in the hopes that this would alleviate the wakelock. It didn't help ofcourse.
I then forgot all about the previous, and travelled back home.
I then removed the foreign sim.
Wakelock gone.
Caveat : the tablet keeps reminding me that the burner sim's network isn't available... duh... I'm in another country AND the sim isn't inserted, yah I kinda figured the network won't be available.
So, what I think _might_ work : insert any sim, manually select that sim's network, disable data in the mobile network settings, eject the sim, power off, power on.
Then keep an eye on the wakelocks...
good luck.
I did exactly that. I manually selected the network, ejected the sim and now the tablet keeps reminding me that the network isn't available.
Still same issue, that didn't help me.
Is it even safely possible to install a rom for a different device? For example, could I just grab the Lollipop factory image for the N7 wifi version and flash that?

Also disable data in Mobile network settings.
Also reboot.
Then watch the wakelock for at least 30 mins, even an hour.

Possible, yes... I want to try it out when I have some time, if only to get that damn Lollipop, which is available for Grouper but not yet for Tilapia.

I went ahead and updated my tilapia to android 5.0.2 for grouper.
Wasn't easy, but it runs stable.
Unfortunately it didn't help with the baseband_xmm_power wakelock
So I took this a step further and did a "fastboot erase radio", I will repost if this helps with the battery drain.
update : no use. Reverted back to 4.4.4 KitKat, and did procedure as outlined a few posts earlier. Standby consumption is now kinda normal at 0.5% / H

I updated to LP 5.0.2 factory,and the wakelock hit me like a brick. What got it gone was Synman's GwT with carcosa kernel.
In fact it is the stock kernel that causes the wakelock,tried with Multirom(which uses patched stock kernel),and wakelock was back,using 7%/hour.
Flashing carcosa-a33-lp-anykernel removed the wakelock.

I'm running lollipop on my n910c and having problems with battery drain when using mobile data. I didn't have this issue when on kitkat. Leaving mobile data on, even when not using the phone, seems that many apps that use the internet keep draining battery non stop. This doesnt happen when connected on WiFi.
Apps or processes like Google services, Samsung push service, even whatsapp and viber show up in the battery ussage when phone has been not in use most of the time. None of these show when using wifi and the difference in battery drain is huge.
Right now i dont have screenshots but will upload when possible.
I used to keep my mobile data always on. Now only when i really need it.
A friend of mine has an S5 and has the exact same issue after upgrading to lollipop.
Has anyone found a fix for this or am i doing something wrong?
Sorry for long post but i hope to find a solution which may help anyone with this problem and I think there are a lot of them.
Hi,
Recently upgraded a T-Mobile HU carrier locked device to Marshmallow. Ever since the calls/cell standby is on the top of the battery usage list; the cell standby with around 12-14%, and the calls go up to 50%ish depending on the amount of calls. Tried to read up and saw a couple of suggestions like disable VoLTE, Wifi calls, but none of them are in the menu (see screenshots). Also found the suggestions about clearing the cache, did that one yesterday, now it seems a bit better regarding drain during sleep (only lost 9% overnight opposed to 20% earlier), but the cell standby still on the top of the list (see screenshot) with good signal. Is there any possibility to check for these options without breaking the warranty (so preferrably without rooting/custom rom etc)?

Hello,
I am experiencing exactly the same problem with my G928F. I have tried to flash several Marshmallow ROMs yet the issue persists.
The moment I switch to mobile data the Cell Standby drain begins. At the end of the day I barely have 20 % battery left with cell standby on top.
However when I use the WiFi(which disables the mobile data) the battery life is a lot better and I end up with more then 50 % at the end of the day.
I guess there are some problems with the radio/software in that Marshmallow. If that continues I will try to roll back to Lollipop.
Hi there,
Thanks for the feedback. Altho I must admit that since I upgraded to MM, if I dont touch my phone at all (mobile, wifi, bluetooth all turned on), battery holds in standby for 4 days, whats not bad. But if I dont do anything that should drain the battery like web browsing, video watching or games (what I dont do anyways), just do some calls during the day, the battery drops like hell, I'm on 20% by the evening. Cellular service stuff should consume much less battery in my opinion...
best,
Balage
Same issue, On the three network
Same problem here. Cell Standby is on top.
Anyone got any fix to this?
I have contacted Samsung Support and they told me to send the phone to their repair shop.. WTF ? I am sure that is a software issue as it is not only my phone and I doubt they are going to fix it. They will just waste my time...
One more: same problem for me (using TIM in Italy with an unbranded device). I will try keeping the wifi connection on (I usually don't use the wifi connection in my office) just to check if even for me this is the main cause of the battery drain I'm experiencing with Marshmallow! I'm currently using the French stock ROM (PC3) which seems to be the most recent version, but still experiencing short battery life

Of course it is not a device hardware problem, given that with Lollipop for all of us it was not like this!
I have the same issue, I simply turn DATA off to get rid of "cell standby drain". I use "wifi" most of the times (office and home) for my data usage, only switch on network data if I am out and just to check for updates and disable it in a minute or so.
Have somebody tried the new UK version rel. PDA PD2?
Just released last night...
Might this new release have sorted out this battery drain issue?

Same problem here, Optus in Australia. No 4G connectivity, massive battery drain (only when not on wifi). What I have discovered is that the mobile network is continually disconnecting and re-connecting and that is pretty much sucking the battery aswell as rendering data on the phone useless. It cannot connect to 4g, even if the signal strength is 100%. SMS take a long time to send (i guess they go in teh short time it connects. Phone calls either fail competely or like yesterday I had one where I could hear them but they couldn't hear me.
I went into an Optus store, but of course they just want to sell phones. They said I could put it in to them under warranty and would be without a phone for 10 days+! Or could go to Samsung store, which I have an appointment for tomorrow. I don't hold out much hope on that.
Custom firmware is not an option as I need to be able to connect to my work WiFi and that uses vmware air-watch and it doesn't work with rooted devices or custom roms.
Is there a way to rollback to lollipop without losing the ability to use air-watch?
