Edit: The 4.2.2 update seems like it fixed this wakelock from taking over. That's just my personal experience so let me know if yours is different from mine after the update.
I've searched and tried to find a solution to my problem, but I can't find anything. My main kernel wakelocks are sns_async_ev_wakelock and sns_periodic_wakelock and the time they both register is massive. This has been happening for at least a week, or at pretty much the entire time I started monitoring my wakelocks. Does anyone have any idea what these might be attached to? I originally thought they were pertaining to social networking services, so I promptly deleted the Facebook app and for a day it seemed to fix it. But then the wakelocks came back and were even worse.
Have others come across this problem and does anyone know what might be causing it? They've been preventing my phone from going into deep sleep and I would really like to reduce or get rid of them.
Updated info: I have determined that the game Asphalt 7 is at least one app responsible for massive sns wakelocks. As long as the game remains as a "recent app" it will continue to wake the phone up. Angry birds is another game possibly responsible for the wakelock as well as reddit sync. Anyone else that uses these apps regularly us encouraged to report back your findings. Using the phone prompts sns wakelocks, but the amount of time the phone contributes is identical to your talk time, so your phone is triggering a fake wakelock since the device isn't supposed to be in deep sleep while you're on the phone anyways. Right now the only fix I know of for the listed apps is to manually clear them from "recent apps".
Please include the rom and kernel you're using. So far it seems like a new kernel doesn't actually fix the problem when you're on the stock rom. So anyone on CM or PA, do you have this wakelock after having a game like asphalt 7 or angry birds sit in recent apps?
Have you tried a custom kernel like Franco's ? Might be the Qualcomm fixes.

Well I'm getting this on Franco's. I think it has something to do with the phone. [ I mean talking/calling on phone]
@OP,
Do you get this only when you call someone or get a call. In bbs, try a custom ref. setting and monitor for 1 hour where you were not getting/calling anyone and see if it is going down drastically. Also is the msm_hsic wakelock present for you a lot? [The custom kernels like franco, faux and others have fix for this, taken from patch commits done by qualcomm]
What were you doing with your phone in that time, were you making calls, texting, etc?

I talk on the phone for maybe an hour every day, so I would be surprised if it was associated with the phone since the wakelock time has been increasing this whole week while my phone time is relatively constant. Although I'm just taking the phone off the charger now and won't use it for calls for the next 2 hours, so I'll report back with what kind of wakelocks I'm getting as well was the apps I've used. As for msm_hsic_host wakelock, it is present but not as prevalent as the sns wakelocks. As you can see from the first picture I'm only getting about 20 minutes for that wakelock compared to the 4 hours of the others. If I remember correctly I ended the day with almost 5 hours for both sns and then an hour and a half for msm_hsic. So sns slowed down a bit and msm_hsic ramped up, but it didn't come close to overtaking sns

I was using it pretty normally. Had around an hour of talk time (cumulative over the day), texting throughout the day, streaming pandora for a little, checking emails, playing a game for a bit, and on sites like xda, reddit (through apps), and facebook (through chrome).
So far I haven't had any sns wakelocks today (well, nothing compared to what I recently had). The hisc wakelock is dominating now which seems more "normal". I only talked on the phone for a grand total of 3 minutes today so maybe that has something to do with sns. Currently charging it so I'll start getting new stats (the ones I'm posting now were taken a few hours ago), but this time I'll try to use the phone more as well as keep everything else the same. My use today has been streaming pandora, checking emails, reddit, xda, facebook, but no games (maybe that also comes into play). I'll keep updating
I'm getting massive sns kernel wakelocks too. No phone calls.

Hmm, yesterday I started getting sns wakelocks after I was on the phone for a while, so that might be part of it. Of course there might have been another reason behind it if you get a lot of wakelocks without the phone. Forgot to get a screenshot
This is the first day since I've been monitoring that this wakelock just went berserk. I made zero calls today. Then, I went back in time to determine what I was doing when it started. At that time, I was using Reddit Sync. Before doing anything, I locked the screen, and a few minutes later checked BBS and determined that the wakelock was still active after locking the screen. Then, I closed Reddit Sync and locked the screen. After a few minutes, I unlocked the screen and checked BBS. Sure enough, the wakelock times had frozen. So, by simply closing Reddit Sync, this wakelock has stopped, at least for now. After restarting this app, locking the screen and unlocking after a few minutes, I notice that the wakelocks were not re-activated. Well, that's my story. Do any of you use this app too?

Ha. It's not a sync program whatsoever, not in the sense that it syncs anything to the contents of your phone. It does sync in the sense that it keeps track of your "read" articles.

I only use Reddit News. My sns wakelocks for today match the time I was on the phone, almost identically. This has been the case for today and yesterday which leads me to believe that the phone calls are NOT responsible for this runaway wakelock (as others have been saying). I didn't use my Nexus 4 very much this weekend, and the two major functions I used it for were phone calls and checking email sporadically. Others seem to report substantial wakelocks even without calls, so this has to be attributed to some app or setting that we're missing. Although I'm more inclined to think it's a problem with an app (or apps) because limited use seems to result in limited wakelocks, and if it was a system setting then it would be fairly constant. Has anyone gotten low sns wakelocks after not using their phone much in a day (like not using very many apps)? And thanks for the input so far
Async could stand for asynchronous, the CPU functions asynchronously but, I have no clue whether that wake lock is really cpu related.

I think it might be but I'm not completely sure.I found out last night that the game Asphalt 7 was responsible for a couple hours of wakelocks. However, in the system battery stats it registered as 0s for keeping the phone awake while android os registered the 2 hour jump I saw after playing the game. I played for a few minutes and jumped back to the home screen and didn't touch the game for those 2 hours. I'm not sure why, but having the game in my recent apps triggered those wakelocks, and the second I swiped it out of recent apps the wakelocks stopped. Either the app is bad or maybe the system isn't handling it correctly. I'll be trying other apps to see what the results are.

Alright, so that's two people getting wakelocks from redditsync. What happens when you clear redditsync from your recent apps? Does the wakelock continue or does it stop? This definitely sounds like the system isn't handling some of the open/recent apps correctly. No idea what links these apps together though
I am using Franco 62 with stock ROM and it turns out that Angry Birds Seasons can cause these wakelocks as well. Glad I'm not the only one with this issue.
I have never had these wakelocks previously (only the famous msm_hsic_wakelock). Yesterday after I installed a couple of apps (most are just theme-ing apps with no sync) and flashed custom kernel (Franco.r53); and ever since then these two wakelocks are continously appearing in my BBS stats, almost preventing my phone from entering deep sleep AT ALL. So I thought it was the kernel's problem; flashed back stock kernel and the problem still persists.
It's really weird as I previously NEVER had these two wakelocks.
By the way, I'm on stock ROM (rooted, unlocked)

Thanks for the update. But, it begs the question as to whether you uninstalled the new apps one by one to hone in on a possible culprit?

I'm suspecting something else, will update if it's solved.
UPDATE:
This is really weird, I have uninstalled what I installed yesterday and the problem persists, so I decided to try something else (as it was the another differences factor compared to pre-problem).
My WiFi was disconnected in middle of the night and I thought it could be causing it.
I turned my WiFi off, turn it back on and the problem is gone. This is really weird, as I have rebooted many times prior to trying this solution (and even flashed back to Stock Kernel).
Really random or just plain unlucky? I have even reinstalled the apps that I thought are causing the problem, but still fine so far. Gotta leave it overnight again to judge.
My Android OS is showing a stay always time of over 17 hours (out of a 20 hour run time where my battery is completely depleted). Is there anyway I can find out what cause it?
I am already on 4.2.2

You're experiencing wakelocks. Might wanna do some research on the forum so that you can post logs for people to analyze what's really eating your battery.

THIS. I was having problems with wakelocks and traced them back to these few things below which got my battery life to greatly increase once disabled.
1) using dashclock extensions like FB and gmail
2) leaving google sync on in settings for the various google services
3) corporate email exchange servers
4) setting a long time variable for the phone to lock after the screen turns off (i did this to prevent putting in a pin to unlock but it kept the phone awake after the screen turned off)
5) live wall papers
There is also a known issue in the stock kernel that causes the phone to stay awake when it is supposed to go into sleep mode during extended periods of inactivity. This can be solved by using a custom kernel just as Franco r90 which has implemented patches in order to allow the phone to go into sleep to preserve battery. It is expected to be fixed in the next official OTA from google although this was also expected to be in 4.2.2 and was not fixed fully.
Same issue here. 4.2.2 stock kernel+rom, rooted
BBS shows "suspend_backoff" is at 45% no idea what's causing that.
Disabled pretty much all of the sync services but no improvement.
Interestingly right after the 4.2.2 update, the battery life was good.

Google play services has something to do with the high usage. Yesterday I was near 20% usage today I disabled it and android os is at 7%. It only affects YouTube app for me, but the browser version is fine. I haven't seen any adverse affects other than maybe losing updates to the play store and ota updates which I don't care about because that's what xda and Roms are for. Now it may be placebo, but it also seems like the ui is smoother. Battery has improved greatly with sot of 3 hours with 57% left.
Hi,
how do you disable Google play services?
Try using the app greenify if your rooted.. It's been helping my battery life. Use it on maps and that will help. If maps is set as a system app, move it or just install banks minimal gapps so you can download from play store.

Hi everyone. I managed to get my hands on a beautiful blue I9505, had some issues while SIM unlocking it, but that's done and I am enjoying the phone very much.
Now, I do have a problem with it. The thing is, it simply will NOT go to deep sleep. Constantly hovering on 384 MHz with msm_hsic_host using a massive 90+ percent of awake time. It is driving me nuts. Our colleagues and friends over at Nexus 4 forums had an identical issue, and I read 57 pages of posts and used all their tips and tricks. Nothing helped.
Attached to this post you can see:
- the original Nexus 4 forum topic - [Q] msm_hsic_host - Nexus 4 forums
- The Google Code page where people complained about this - Google Code - Issue 41855 - "msm_hsic_wakelock" process on Nexus 4 causes severe battery drain
- my battery usage and BBS stats - attached to this post
- Qualcomm's fix for the issue - link 1 and link 2 at Code Aurora
I can't make heads or tails of any of this. The only thing that remains to do today (which I will do) is to flash a custom ROM and kernel for my I9505.
Thanks to anyone who will chime in to this discussion.

clear dalvik cache and see again if it does enter Deep sleep or not, as everyone said its an application if not it must be a setting like sync, scan, or even that damn old wifi advanced settings that kept usual phones awake... reconfigure.
Insomnia
My phone won't sleep, won't time out and tapping the power button won't shut off the display. This happened just after deleting bootsamsung.qng, samsungloop.qng and shutdown.qng.
I'd replace the three deleted files, but they just grew and replaced themselves minus the carrier logo. The Baseband version now says: unknown. I stopped and installed google maps, that didn't help.
The good news is, those pink blocks are gone. The bad, I did a factory reset and noticed my cell network connectivity is gone. Maybe that's the sloppy work cutting down the SIM, or maybe something else? I've reinserted that sucker a dozen times and no joy. Do you know if the phone will stay awake without cell service? Putting it in airplane mode doesn't help.
Any suggestions? Thanks for your consideration.

Read this about the wakelock, has to do with bad/lower 3g connections:
http://www.google.nl/url?sa=t&rct=j...3jjunrjohBvz3zaNvrYSO5g&bvm=bv.46751780,d.d2k
Thanks for the link.
This seems to be a logical explanation, but I've disabled 3G, and it still happens.
Plus it happens when in airplane mode, without any (cell) activity. I'm pretty sure that the kernel isn't configured properly.
Is there a known kernel / stock firmware version where this problem is fixed?
It appears that I have solved my problem.
I reset the device to factory settings and then restored apps, 5 by 5 in 30 min intervals. I still haven't restored all my apps, but so far I restored some 80%, here is the current state of things.
Very interesting.
Please keep us posted once you find out which app caused the problems, or if the factory reset fixed it.
Did you freeze or uninstall any apps?
Did you remove the T-Mobile bloatware?

How strong is your phone's signal? If it does a lot of searching it'll use a lot of battery. With Wi-Fi off your apps will still try to connect to the internet. Face book I'd your biggest wake lock. Do you really need that to be trying to sync?

my signal is almost always full bars with lte. I wouldn't think that one app would cause such a battery drain, even facebook. but no it's not that important, I can turn that off to see if it makes a difference. what about "AlarmManager" & "ActivityManager-Launch"?
edit: what I don't understand is this.. even with facebook on, whether it's syncing with wifi or my data connection it's wakelocking, so why such a huge difference when wifi is disabled and it's using my data connection instead?
I don't think facebook is the problem, I installed the other ge rom (clean&slim) and am having the same issue when wifi is disabled, and I haven't installed any apps except for es file explorer and nova launcher. I don't remember a problem with this on stock touchwiz. I have safestrap and goldeneye running on my girlfriends phone and the android system using battery when wifi is disabled isn't a problem.

If you're in an LTE border area your connection may be connecting in and out with LTE bands frequently causing the battery drain, as wifi is usually more stable. Generally the cause of battery drain is due to google services wakelocking the phone. Do you have Greenify downloaded? It's pretty nifty for hibernating apps, causing them to be completely shutdown until opened; preventing wakelocks. If you get the donate version you can even hibernate system apps (google services, etc). I doubt it's ROM related, but you can try another ROM and compare with BetterBatteryStats.

thanks for the info. I've tried both google edition roms but like I said.. this wasn't an issue on stock touchwiz and it's not an issue on my girlfriends phone running safestrap and goldeneye (we have the same phone). I do have greenify and I've added play music and maps to it as I noticed they would always run in the background. I also noticed in running apps under google services (with wifi disabled) something was running called locationmanager or similar to that. I had all location services turned off tho. I always have full lte service so I'm not sure why it would be going in and out.
Check your kernel wakelocks, your partial wakelocks seems not a big deal, actually on that screenshot IMO facebook is behaving very well.

I just unplugged my phone so I'm waiting for updated battery stats. I'm almost positive it has nothing to do with any apps that I've installed. I have greenified alot of apps, and turned off some receivers in google services framework (mostly gtalk stuff) I also did the stuff in this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2357417. I'm going to wait awhile to see if there's any improvement, then I was going to try adding some build.prop entries that I used on my LG Optimus L9, a couple are for saving power when the phone is asleep and helping the phone sleep better, and there is an entry to limit how often your wifi will scan. they seemed to help on the lg.
I live in a poor service area and I like to control my WiFi and data on off with juice defender or creative connections I think its called. Helps me a lot. May not solve your prob but might make things easier on you. There is also an app called LTE toggle that makes a on/off widget for LTE. Hope it helps if you try it.

so is this an issue other people have using google edition roms and having wifi disabled? this doesn't happen with stock touchwiz or even stock touchwiz roms so I'm not understanding what the problem could be. I shouldn't have to use another app to stop battery drain just because I don't have wifi enabled

I can't think of anything you haven't already thought of that could cause those issues. I love greenify also but is it possible you greenified an app that is fighting it and trying to connect? I've done that but not es bad as you are seeing. Those apps were a thought to make your life a little easier by not working about WiFi on here and off there. They work good for me for that issue. You probably won't like this but I'm running foxhound 2.0 with faux and killjoy/ccross breeder script and I have a hard time hitting 50% battery after 15 hours off the charger. I have to really game or to a lot to go below that. I also debloat heavily. I havent tried your Roms yet but I had similar results on Alpha ROM. I'll think about it some more though.

I tried foxhound and I liked it but the black theme was just too black for me and I don't really like the touchwiz theme. I love the google edition roms. and no at first I flashed a clean ge rom and didn't install any apps at all and I still had the problem. I've also installed ge roms from the i9505 forum and also had the problem. with wifi on I get atleast 2 days on a full charge and about 4 hours of screen on time.
I would suggest do the following charge up to 100% not 90% like your second post. after 100% charge, do a reboot when the phone boots again remove the charger and let it sit untouched for at least 4 hours preferably 8 hours. Then on better battery stats take a screenshot of "Other/unplugged" lets see how much the phone is awake and deep sleep, then take a screenshot of Kernel Wakelocks/unplugged and also partial wakelocks/unplugged
at first I didn't notice that on you second screenshot your stats are for 8% period 90% - 82% and that is a 1%/hr battery drain, is actually pretty good, sure not excellent but there are some that loose 2%/hr
I'm having the same problem with the ge ROM. Battery life seems to go quicker than stock touchwiz. As I like the GE roms interface and things you can do with it just hate the battery life.

How much time are you getting of deep sleep and how much awake in a 8 hr period ?
Do you have exchange mail enabled? Sometimes I have the same problem with my battery life and that is the issue

are you having the problem with wifi enabled and disabled? I only have the problem when my wifi is turned off, with wifi on I get great battery life with this rom
here's what I added to my build.prop last night and it seems to have fixed the 'android system' battery drain. it's back down to 2% now with wifi off and lte enabled.
Disable Sending Usage Data
ro.config.nocheckin=1
Deeper Sleep / Better Battery Life
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=1
pm.sleep_mode=1
Wi-Fi to Scan Less Frequently
wifi.supplicantscan_interval=180
So after updating facebook and messenger (facebook) I've found huge wakelocks in bbs. Anyone else having this issue? It's related to some kind of bug reporting?

Wakelocks (requires root / system app on Android 4.4+)

Same here........I'm locking it down using the Amplify Xposed module.

It's causing massive wake time if left alone for a few hours. I went ahead and limited the wakelocks in amplify. Set it to allow them every 10th hour on trial. We'll see if that causes any problem.
I noticed this too. I watch battery like a hawk but this is the first time Facebook had shown much drain in the last few months. This was build still 59.0.0.3.313
Looks like tonight's build still has the issue.
I recommend reporting in the Facebook app itself.

I've disabled them both in amplify. I don't feel I want battery every spent on uploading any form of reports. I've also limited facebook wakelocks apart from this to every 15th minute. It's spending too much battery on something irrelevant.
Reported it already.
Even my fiancee's Galaxy S5 (which can usually get through to the end of the day with 65+% battery left) was saying that her battery has been draining very quickly.
So I know Facebook in general gets a bad reputation, but as someone who watches wakelocks on a daily basis and the battery page, this is really the first instance of Facebook misbehaving in at least 2-3 years.
Anyway, is this something like you guys are seeing? https://imgur.com/a/rpO0j
The background drain isn't TOO Terrible. It's around ~2.5% / hour screen off on LTE (honestly that's what I got on a OnePlus One on Lollipop anyway), while the screen on drain was around 25% / hr
BTW, are you using Facebook/Messenger beta? I'm only in the Facebook beta program, so I don't see any issues for Messenger on my side yet.
are you using Facebook/Messenger beta?
Not using betas. I can't agree regarding facebook and battery life. It'd suppose to use cgm but still it had a heap of timers going off and the app is ever high in wakelock detector. I've had enough and now limited most of its alarms and wakelocks in amplify to no more often than every 15 mins. This has lowered facebooks position in the wakelock list to a much more acceptable level. No problems arise either apart from not getting notifications as expected but that's been a problem for years over multiple handsets.
I can even confirm it, the same wakelocks and drain have been appearing on my OnePlus One too.
I use amplify and prevent wakelocks to everything pertaining to Facebook to 86400s. That's once per day and haven't had any detrimental effects from the app. All still works as it should.

What version of Facebook are you on?
BTW Facebook does use GCM. IT only uses MQTT when you are actively in the Messenger app. I'm not entirely certain what's going on here. The wakelock is com.facebook.bugreporter.scheduler.LollipopService so it seems to be bug reporting related and not notification related.

Oh! Funny thing is, I've limited the mqtt stuff and I've had zero issues getting messages right away when screen is on or off in messenger but thanks to the mods facebook stuff is now farther down on the list of wakelocks rather than high. If those mqtts were only used when active, why use wakelocks for it at all? And why do they creep up in count when the screen is off? 60.0.0.2.76

MQTT is only used when the app is in the foreground meaning its being actively used and screen on. Therefore it shouldn't cause wakelocks. I'm guessing MQTT is used because GCM can see delayed notifications sometimes. MQTT is probably better suited for real time chat.
What wakelock are you seeing? Is it the one I posted earlier? If so I'm not sure if that sure it has anything to do with the actual chatting and communication portion of the app. The wakelock has to do with a bugreporter, which is misbehaving when your screen is off.
I think I know the answer, but no way to help this without root right?
I can confirm, same problem on Nexus 5x (not rooted) latest version of Facebook... Updated this morning, caused wakelocks, uninstalled, problem solved. Shame I have to uninstall it to fix...
I have 60.0.0.5 now... Facebook simply minimizes itself automatically now. Anyone else seeing this behavior? I have greenify on Facebook as well as amplify to limit some wakelock. Might be the cause...
I am seeing this issue as well with com.facebook.bugreporter.scheduler.LollipopService causing massive drain.
I just have Messenger 53.0.0.17.308.
Since I do not want to install Xposed + Amplify to address the issue, is there a way to block this Job? I am digging into MyAndroidTools, but I can't find anything like that in Messenger services or Activities.
EDIT: According to BetterBatteryStats, it's a Service, but I can't find it.
EDIT2: By changing display mode in MyAdroidTools, I was able to find the service, the normal display name is Lollipop Service. However, if disabled, the app does not work properly, closes as soon it's opened.
same here guys!nexus 5 with cm13. huge wakelock with facebook and messenger. I tryed to greenify it but it doesn't work and after few minutes they come back again. I have to hybernate them with SDMaid app and it works well, but of course once hybernate i can't use them anymore until i dishybernate. Any solution?i don't use xposed..:crying:
Confirm this wakelock on 1+1 with CM 13.
