So I'm aware of the haptic-like vibration when a phone is rebooted/booting up/shutting down which I know is normal.
However after it has loaded into the main screen, my phone vibrates (sorta a haptic-feedback vibration).
I have no clue what is calling this vibration. Initially I thought it was caused by my phone being on silent and it's notifying me that the phone is on vibration mode but I turned up the volume and I'm still getting it.
I noticed it was vibrating at around the same time my wifi toggle is enabled through the quick settings in the notification drop down. However, again I troubleshooted by switching off my wifi, reboot phone but I still get the vibrate.
I used logcat to see whether I could find out whether an app is calling a vibration but I can't really make any sense from it. I notice around 20 seconds into boot up there's a vibrator service showing up.

Sorry for the noobish reply, but what does this do?
I don't think it's a phone error but more so an app I installed (ever since towelroot was released) lol.
Then again, its not bothering me too much but at the same time I kinda want to know where it's originating from.
Tick that option to notify you whenever application not responding occur to trouble shoot it

hi, not 3G user, wifi is my only choice. but there is something,
if we put the phone to sleep with the wifi is connected, the wifi will just automatically turn off after a certain time. is there any modification that could have the wifi on all the time?
edit:
i think i figured it out, it just under the advance setting in the wifi seeting page (press the menu button)
i just set it, and will see how fast it drain my battery.
edit:
tested, and it is not that fast draining, 8+ hours drained 7%, not bad, i think i can keep it on and on, cheer
btw, i am using langthang's NDT CM v16, impressive works, thanks him

Not sure why you want to have WiFi on all the time. It will deplete your battery very quickly on standby. Like you, I did not subscribe to a data plan. So I chose a NAND ROM that quickly turns WiFi on and off automatically with the phone. I am using Tytung's Nexus HD2 v3.0 ROM. WiFi quickly turns on when I turn the phone on and off when I put the phone in standby. I would suggest trying a ROM you like that has the same functionality for controlling WiFi. I think most of the ROMs are this way to save battery power rather than having WiFi or worse, GPS on all the time.

I also have TextFree and have my WiFi sleep policy at When screen turns off. I just had my wife text me with my phone in standby and it received and notified me of the text's arrival. I never had my WiFi on all the time in order for TextFree to still work. So I am wondering could it be due to us using different ROMs and their capabilities? Looks like you don't have a large battery drain even with the WiFi on.
Since a couple of days "Google Services" are serving to drain my battery when my device is in "idle state" ....
Yesterday night my battery was 97% charged & when I woke up it was 92% .....This was not the case earlier !!
Then I checked my battery usage which showed "Google Services" eating up 52%......
What may have triggered this "Google Services" to run in the background & eat up my precious battery ?? Any clues & any solution ??
I don't know why, but I've seen plenty of Play reviews complaining about it. You're not alone. Hopefully a patch comes out.

turn location services off. That is what is causing it to run so high.
check this link:
http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/1...lay-services-seems-to-be-a-battery-hog-today/
Mine was running 40% Plus until I turned network locations off. randomly appeared out of the blue once I'd turned location on.
This ^. Same experience. Picture attached is from when I had location sources - use wireless network (on), after I unchecked it google services doesn't even show up in my battery stats anymore.
Known bug. You can improve it but never get rid of it until it's patched. I believe the bug is worse on versions earlier than KitKat, especially 4.3.

I noticed battery drain after installing MJ7.
I had this problem, too, while location services were switched off but was able to solve it by switching the phone off, removing the battery for a minute, then performing a cache wipe in recovery mode and finally a reboot. IAW: a soft reset.
Batter Battery Stats widget showed me almost immediately that I was successful, after keeping my phone in stand by for a few minutes after the reset.
Normally you wait for at least an hour to get a good view on wake lock performance.
Before the soft reset the widget showed that my phone was awake all the time (no deep sleep bar, awake bar as big as phone on bar) although the screen was switched off,
After the soft reset the deep sleep bar showed a normal value (almost as big as the phone on bar, which it should be in stand by).
What puzzled me was that before the reset the wake lock bars were small while the awake bar was as big as the phone on bar. Very strange (no wake locks, but still a phone that won't go into deep sleep?), had not seen that before. But I'm a beginner on wake locks. Any expert cares to explain?

I went on to uninstall the Google Play services update after awhile I notice deep sleep kicking in shown via the cpu spy app.
Is Google aware of this?
I was about to go down to a samsung service centre and ask for a battery replacement. Thank god for xda!

I also had this issue but after using the donated version of greenify it allowed me to hibernate both google play store and the services. My devices batterylife is very very epic now, even better then I had on my note 2!

Hi All,
This morning I went to turn on WiFi tethering (unlocked/TMO model) and it wouldn't turn on, just saying, "error" in the settings area. I rebooted - same finding. Then I noticed I can no longer turn WiFi on. Attempting to turn WiFi on does nothing. I've rebooted several times and checked recent app updates, but only Google Keep, CapOne, and Zedge have updated recently, and none control WiFi state. Has anyone seen anything like this?
Thanks,
BH
So actually, it seems I can use WiFi, but the second I try and enable tethering (which I do almost every day) I can no longer use WiFi until I power cycle (and tethering never activates - just gives the below error

Not a fix per-say, but could you use USB tethering instead in those circumstances until it's sorted out?

You can follow this thread about enable wifi tethering.. I think it will help you to turn on your Wifi..
http://androidforums.com/galaxy-ring-all-things-root/739312-enable-wifi-tethering.html
So after poking around, I found that the config info (SSID, security type, etc) for my wireless tethering was gone. No idea why, but it was. I re-entered it, and for a day, everything was fine. I thought it was a 'one off' thing and didn't worry about it too much. This morning however it was gone again. No clue why. It *might* coincide w/ my installation of Cerberus now that I think about it. Can a user of both Cerberus and WiFi tethering test?

I've had cerberus installed since I got my X. I tether on a regular basis without the settings going away...
So I've noticed two things since upgrading to 5.1.1:<br />
<br />
* If I scroll down really fast, it automatically starts to scroll up <br />
* With Airplane mode on, wifi off and mobile data off, I still seem to get network activity. For example Whatsapp messages still come through
Problem 2 is likely the mobile data always active bug. It's apparently fixed in marshmallow. However, if you have xposed there is a module to prevent this now. It's called MobileActiveRadioFix.
I have an issue with the wifi, sometimes it is kept enabled in battery usage even though it is really disabled in settings.
I know it is because of the 5GHz bug from Lollipop so i forget routers with WMM enabled but still it annoys me sometime. "Scanning Always Available" is disabled in advanced setting I even have Llama to schedule Airplane mode on, then off for a minute then on again starting midnight until 6am

Same on my Nexus 5, try to turn off WIFI when you are still connected to a network. If you leave home and your WIFI is ON, and then you turn it off, it will shown on battery stats.

Hi there.
I've been experiencing short battery times.
Upon checking I found that my phone's wifi constantly remains on. Even after switching it off and keeping the scanning option off.
Can anybody please help me out?

I believe that there is a known bug causing wakelocks with 5GHz WiFi. For the sake of the battery, it is best to turn off the 5GHz option.

I've done this and it doesn't work. What's strange is my first 6p's wifi was off after I turned the scanning off. This current replacement 6p is always reporting wifi on no matter what I try. Both were running the exact same firmware.

you have wifi scanning off, 2.4 ONLY and restarted your device afterwards?
have fixed 5 nexus devices, first hand, w this method. strange
Yes, I saw your post last week and tried restart multiple times to no avail. I wiped the cache and nothing. It's a bit annoying but hasn't affected my battery. Still getting close to 6hrs SOT on average.
Well solved my issue with said method!
Thanks so much!
This method worked for me too. Thanks for the info.

Odd, never saw this problem when using 5GHz Wifi. Went on vacation with a 2.4ghz router and started seeing this.
WiFi is showing constantly on in my battery stats. I've done everything (Disabled scanning, disabled connectivity services, set to 2.4, wiped cache, etc.)
I've encountered this issue too. So I just leave WiFi scanning on.

I am having an issue since flashing the newest security update with wifi causing massive battery drain.
When I turn wifi off, it turns off and shows as such in battery stats, and does not drain any battery.
But I had wifi on for 3 hours at home today, and it is at the top of my battery usage. This was not the case before the newest update, and I could leave wifi on all day, even when not connected, with negligible battery drain. Now if I leave it on, even when not connected, it is a constant drain.
