Hey all,
I've done some searching around and haven't been able to find a solution for this. The LGE Gravity Sensor (which is related to Knock On) has been causing my Android OS to stay awake and cause battery drain. I attempted to Greenify doubletab and Knock On still worked, but it didn't fix the battery drain. I turned off Knock On and it went away immediately so I know that is the problem.
Has anyone found a way or know a way to keep this from draining battery but still keep Knock On functionality?
If I compare battery between having Knock On active or disabled, it's not doing that much to the battery. But in the battery stats it looks much different as with Knock On disabled, your display will take the top spot and not Android OS anymore.

Anyone else having this problem? All the sudden Android OS is taking a ton of battery, killed half my battery overnight while the screen was off. Anyone have any of these problems?
Android OS is too general to say what is causing the wakelock. Use an app that can see which process is causing the wakelock directly and you will know what the problem is.

My android os consumes 70% of my battery. Tried better battery stats, but I don't see any wake locks

for what it is worth, it lasts forever in airplane mode...

Then you definitley have an app or two that is causing it. Try CPU Spy (let's you know if you get deep sleep or not) and see if that helps any. I hate battery drain so best of luck in solving your battery drain issue.
Since I've upgraded to 4.2 roms on all my devices I've noticed this too. Normally, Maps is the culprit causing a "normal" wakelock. Google +, Latitude, Google Now, etc. This is just the way Google operates now & the biggest difference between 4.1 & 4.2. I've taken to disabling Location unless I'm needing GPS service. It checks your location every couple minutes it seems.
I've had a situation you describe a few times caused by media storage. It keeps scanning the SD card. Sometimes a reboot helps but mostly I've just changed roms instead of chasing it. Better Batt Stats should show it somewhere. Keep looking, look in "alarms". Also you might try GSam Battery Monitor. That app has come a long way lately & also helps finding battery sucking sources.

For me it was Viber. After deleting it I get almost no battery drain over night. Maybe 1% in 8 hours...
Hello all, so I've done some Google searching to see what is causing this awful Wakelock on my device and I can't figure it out. Asking help from you all. It's called "SmartFaceService" and basically is responsible for my battery draining 40% while I was asleep. Picture is attached. Any ideas?

All smart screen features. sucks we can't use it without it draining the battery
could autokill on screen off
Just as an update, I installed the factory image and did a firmware initialization on kies and the wakelock hasn't been a problem. Not sure what to make of that but - I didn't know how else to deal with it since it was destroying my battery life
keep the screen on if you look at the phone: smart face
Recently my note 3's wifi won't turn off while asleep. Under battery usage it shows that the wifi is on the entire time. The android os also shows as being on for more than an hour (it's also the top app on battery usage). It's lead to a battery drain. Using wake lock detector and bbs I haven't seen any app that is causing the problem. I haven't changed any setting either. The wifi is set to never be on during sleep periods. I remember seeing a post with a problem about this but I can't seem to find it anymore. I really don't feel like resetting back to factory settings. Anyone experience this or know what's causing it.
Hi.
Running stock Marshmallow, with root and used wakelock detector and battery monitor to find that when not in airplane mode, three kernel wake locks (see screen shots) as far as I can tell, seem to be causing my phone to stay awake all the time and hence use battery.
I also use Greenify BTW.
How do I remedy this?
Thanks

I had the same issue. I found out that it was because I had blocked a Bluetooth wake service and it freaked the phone out keeping it awake. I would suggest enabling each service you disabled one by one going through them to find out which one is causing your issue. Or you can uninstall greenify and any other apps that disable services like amplify and servicely. I found that my battery life had gotten better after doing so.
Hello,
A month ago my SM-G900T on the Mokee Nougat rom was doing great then just started draining the battery a lot while not in use. I'd lose about 10% of battery in 12 hours with the screen off, wifi on, and no movement at all. Then it started draining ~50% in the same time, also no movement or use. I didn't add or remove any apps or change any settings. The app Better Battery Stats blames wakelocks caused by the significant motion sensor. I wiped it which didn't help and tried other Nougat roms that previously did great with battery usage without installing anything but Open GApps micro and still I get tons of wake time with the significant motion sensor being blamed. Greenify with hibernate, Aggressive Doze and Doze on the Go all make no noticable difference. There are a number of sensor test apps and all of mine appear to be working fine.
Any ideas?
I am having the exact same issue with samsung significant sensor motion.. But i havent changed roms yet to test in other roms. I am getting sometimes 10% drop in one hour without ever touching the phone. And all status seem to blame this motion sensor. Have you found some solution or explanation on this?
did anyone find a solution to this? i started having problems with it on s10+ exynos A11
