Have a look at post 165 here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=885030&page=17
Seems to do the trick for me! (so far anyways!)

had the same 100% cpu after OTA problem,tried almost everything im aware of (ending some tasks,reboots,unistalling apps) but nothing helped me,ended up with factory reseting twice and i got it solved for now.
been monitoring using system pannel and now its more stable.

No such issue for me with the update once everything completed syncing.

Got this same problem now after update... constant 100% cpu usage, from watchtower it looks like its app called settings storage thats eating cpu time....

yeah for me it's com.android.providers.setings which is killing my battery.
100% in 4 hours!

Guess i'm lucky, killed my battery in 6 and half hours

I just went into stock application manager, force stopped everything i wasnt interested in (sense, friendstream, facebook, stocks, etc). My cpu useage dropped from 100% to more typical 3 to 20% and has been fine since.
As i stopped so many applications i dont know which was the culprit.

Sorry for basic question but how do you get CPU use %?

worked for me too, closed htc sense dashboard and another sense app trought the stock app manager...

ImmediateModeService
I have killed the "ImmediateModeService" and now the CPU time is normal.
Which app is this? Someone has a solution for this error? Because always when i restart my DHD the same error comes back.

for me there is no more problem with this setting. I think that by killing applications the problem will be repeat again

Me too! just went to settings - accounts and sync - htc sense - remove account.
CPU was back down to under 20%. Added htc sense again and still got nice low CPU usage.... sense still doesnt work to make the phone ring or find its location but happy that the phone works properly again.
Glad I got that sorted, thanks for the tip!!

It worked for me too. Thanks a lot gays.

I can confirm the 100% cpu problem has not returned for me. I suspect that the update did not take into account the current sync status variables. If your phone was in a certain sync state when the ota applied it got stuck in a loop. Force stopping clears all temporary variables so returns the phone to the environment in which htc tested the update. So...the problem should not teturn if u force stop the right app. Similarly a hard reset should do the trick.

Try Badass Battery Monitor

Look for Samsung Push Service in your apps list and un-install it!
If you use Samsung Apps, this program is automatically installed and stays active, won't let your phone go to sleep!

Instead of trying to uninstall apps, installing Magic Locker allows you to set power saving and this could be very helpful. In my case it doubled the battery life and I now have around 60% left in the evening.
Hope this helps.

There are a number of Apps you can install that will show running applications ~ SystemPanel is one such app.
It comes in two variant ~ Paid & Free.
The free version is okay for looking at what your apps are doing but it does not offer the same level of service that the paid version gives and in this case you do need the paid version.
Full version ($2.99) adds app manager (installer/uninstaller with multi-version APK archival), and long-term application resource monitor to solve app-related battery life problems.
However, for finding out what apps are using your battery you can do this with your phone's built-in settings.
Just navigate to Settings/Applications/Running Services and look at what apps are currently running.
If you don't need a particular app running simply tap on it and select 'Stop'.
Job done that is one app no longer running in the background.
Another option is to again go to Settings/Applications/Battery Usage.
Here you not only see the graph at the top but also a list of main running apps (note not all are shown).
Tap the graph at the top and it shows you various parameters i.e. when the screen was on and when the device was awake. Basically you need both to be the same. If the phone's screen was off but it remained awake you then have an app running constantly in the background.
So, press the back button and look at the list of apps showing. To terminate an app simply tap on it and this time select 'Force Close'.
Spend a little time now and again popping over to these two places (Running Services & Battery Usage) and you should be able to identify what app or apps are eating your battery.

In my case I chose MIUI but I think any theme should work as well. After installation it asked if I wanted to activate the battery saving mode which I accepted to check its performance as I was having battery drain as well and needed a solution.
I was happily surprised the next day. I hope all these issues are fixed by Samsung in ICS.

try searching in the "All" tab rather than "Downloaded", this is because I think it comes preinstalled as a system app, rather than a separate download.
very weird that it is now using that much battery, are you trying to sync something constantly? Instead of uninstalling updates, try just clearing app data and cache if you don't use it.
in typical use, the screen is supposed to use the most battery, turn it to manual and set it to a lower value to use a little less.

Go to settings, scroll down to accounts, tap on whatsapp. There you can turn off contacts synchronization, which is causing the wakelocks.
It will not interfere with your messages as this only sycs your contacts.
Do check once in a while if it stays of as with me it sometimes turns on automatically

Thanks for your help. I will try it

I'll give this a shot. I was shocked to see that Whatsapp was keeping my phone awake for more than 7 hours over the course of a day. Thanks.

I AM having this problem too. My auto sync is already offline and I still get a huge amount of wakelocks.
What else can I do?

after opening whatsapp..just go to settings->apps-> whtsapp.. and click force close.. u wil have no wakelocks

Try and find the previous apk.

My problem went away after I installed the newest version off their website.

@clankfu,
Thanks, will try it. Seems that Play has 2.10.*** and the latest on their website is 2.11.***

Had this issue with website versions weeks and months ago. Might be that the bug came into the playstore version (although I don't have any issues right now)

It will take it to sleep mode.

I see this once in a while and it'd be good to understand WTF is going on. Why does it take a full 5 minute wakelock?
I'm not even sure if its the contacts sync because I clicked on Whatsapp in the Android Settings menu and it showed that the last sync was at 7pm last night. Yet this morning I had a 5-6 minute wakelock. I unchecked and rechecked and it completed the sync in a second or two.

download LLama or Tasker and you can create a task so that when you are backing out of whats app it will FC it for you. I do this with some system apps that stay open longer than I would like. Although its not the way Android may want it its what I do

specify the tasker profile

Well I for one don't use Google now anyway, I don't use Google plus either, or Google Drive, so there's no need to have those process running no matter what.
I tried to disable Google now and bam my battery consumption overnight dropped from 15% to 3-4% and the phone would actually enter deep sleep - something I've had trouble with the entire time (I'm using a custom kernel with the deep sleep fix, so it shouldn't be because I'm rootet)

there's no need to disable the google.app to prevent the battery drain, it's sufficient to open the settings menu of that app and deactivate the google now cards..

Another tip I found that worked drain your battery to about 8 % then do a hard reset by powering down and hold volume up and home button and power button together once you see the logo let go of power.This bring you into recovery eventually once there wipe data factory reset and catch partition and reboot phone.Now disable the apps you want including google.app I now got 20hrs standby with 0% battery drain was still showing 100% battery awesome battery life try it and let me know how it goes don't forget to give it a full charge after resetting the phone good luck

Ok, but the goal here is prevent the battery.. And the suggestion to disable the google app it's for that.. But if there's a solution to leave the app activated in order to use it when it could be helpful, why instead you would disable it? It's a nonsense.. Google now is the cause of the battery drain, not the google search.. So it's sufficient to disable Google now and continue to enjoy the google search and the ok Google hotword..
