Hi all,i have a "problem" with my g2 and how it behaves with wifi on standby
When i leave my phone sleep with wifi off the drain is nothing and the graphic is flat but when i leave it the same with wifi on its like on the second screenshot and thats a problem because(for example)i lock my phone with exactly 60% with wifi on and after some mins i unlock it,use it for a min or almost 2 but not more and it drains the percentage fast to 59% and with that i have less battery time so i want to know if there's any solution to that or is this is normal for a g2?
I have all location off,gps off and i don't use google now.
Thanks.
That's perfectly normal. But if you want to have better control of your wifi I would recommend. This app.

It's normal on default stock rom settings.
Change Wifi policy to "When screen turns off"

WiFi does suck battery pretty massively on SGS. I've only had my phone for a week, so I don't have any hard-and-fast rules, but I can say that turning off WiFi and mobile data overnight means that I only lose 2-3% battery at most

I can say NOT TURNING OFF WIFI and MOBILE DATA overnight and I loose only 2-10 % overnight. Depends on how long I sleep
Having on WIFI or Mobile Data VS closing it. I think I even posted my results in a thread where I tested it. Was in long run via "shutting off everything(sync/data/wifi)" and "having everything on" like 3-5 hours of standby or 15-20 min usage battery gain. (60 hours VS 62-5 Standby)
If your phone eats that much. Either is wrong configured (wifi wont sleep how the second post said/something is refreshing too often) OR there is a program/app thats always running and not allowing it to sleep.
Skype is the worst of worst in this (and fairly common). Others wont come to my mind now.

Wifi Off when screen OFF = 2% battery drain .
Wifi On when screen off = big drain as its constantly searching .

Hello,
I am asking this question as to confirm if my tablet needs to be sent to warranty or this is a normal behavior to you other people reading this post.
I have stock 4.2.1 rooted on a nexus 7 16gb version
When I lock the screen the device enters deep sleep => I can verify this by using CPU Spy, it says that in 30min of screen off, 28 minutes were spent in deep sleep
Using Battery monitor widget with refresh rate at 1min I can look at the log and see that the tablet had a constant drain of 50 to 94 mah during those 30 minutes. Only after 2-3 hours the device starts to have a drain of 2-3 mah (if the screen is off)
Wireless, Bluetooth, Gps are turned off.
If you think I may have omitted some things in my test procedure please share some info, otherwise please tell me if you also encounter this problem
A good day !
background apps could cause drain, not even apps you opened. like the facebook app is notorious for it.

Hmm, normally when I had the HTC HD2 when it was in deep sleep it had a drain of 2-3mah - battery monitor widget was checking every 1min
Now with the Nexus 7 the drain is 50-94 in deep sleep, do you think this would be a normal behavior ?
I can relate
I get the same type of behavior on my Nexus 7 16GB wifi only model. Mine does not seem to be due to an app either, as the main battery use is Google related (Play store, or Google services, etc.). Take today for example. I charged my Nexus 7 overnight, verified that it was reporting fully charged when I got up, then I put it to sleep and set it aside to take to work and didn't use it again. When I got to work 2.5 hours later I turned it on and it was at about 83% battery. I lost almost 20% battery in 2.5 hours without even using the tablet. I attached a screenshot - today's culprit was Android OS (I took the screenshot a couple of hours later at work). This behavior started after upgrading to 4.2 - it never did this on 4.1.
Oddly enough, I don't get this type of drain if there's no wifi connection, even if wifi is left on and there's a wifi signal that it's just not connected to. When I get someplace with wifi, the battery drain starts again.
Hey all, I had been really dissatisfied with the battery of XSP, leaving it overnight from 90% it used to drain to 50% with all apps being turned off so there's finally a way which you can use so the battery doesn't drains out quick I tried it myself last night and from 87% battery when I saw in morning battery was 83%, awesome isn't it
Ok so here's what you have to do just add the line below in system/build.prop add it in bottom of build.prop enjoy
"ro.config.hw_power_saving=1"
hmm, gonna test it tonight
Good one
But for me no battery draining issue while stamina mod on. Yesterday night i leave my phone with 34 % battery with stamina mod on while sleeping . In morning its 32 % ..
before i sleep, my phone's battery status is usually 20-25% and i charge the next morning before going to work. when i woke up, my phone doesn't drain a single percent at all, but sometimes the phone's battery status is reduced by 1%. just sharing.
build.prop
According to some one website, it should:
# allow to tear down mobile data connection when device is idle
I think you can achieve the same by stamina mode.. The question is, what is causing so much drain. Try to install BetterBatteryStats or similar app to find out the real reason.

The phone ignores lines starting with # so no it shouldn't be. But the stamina mode probably does the same thing indeed

Yes i know about the # lines, I just posted what does this settings actually influence. It shut downs mobile data while screen is off, which is achieved by stamina mode as well.
BTW, what else does stamina mode do? You can choose which apps will be active in the standby mode... in case i have email synchronization set to 30mins, an don't touch the phone for 2 hours, then it won't be synced? If I add it to stamina mode apps, it will be sync then?
battery while screen is off is perfect on my sp.. i dont know whats the matter with yours.. but the problem im facing is during a movie.. of approx 2 hours.. the battey level is 90% .. after two hours it drains to 20%.. with 50% brightness ... its kinda odd.. if you guys are feeling the same.. or not.. at least give me some advice on this!! i dont think this is normal for sp whose video play back is almost 7-8 hours!

m not facing such an issue.....the other day i watched 2 hollywood movies both approx 1hr 45 mins+ with full brightness on MX player and from 90% the bettery went down to approx 30% so that was like 60% drain on full brightness for 3hrs+ movie
I know there isn't much problem of battery with stamina mode on, but even while stamina mode is off or watching videos, playing games it still saves a lot of battery from being drained!
Greenify + Stamina Mod = perfect battery :thumbup:

First of allI would say that your active GPS is a high battery drain so I would turn it of and see again if the battery drain is still that high.
Thnx turned off GPS and restarted phone now it's fine 85% from 100% in five hours with moderate use.
So is my GPS app is faulty?
I use maps a lot so how do I keep my GPS on but without this issue, my GPS was on from purchasing time but nothing like this happened.
Hoping for a permanent fix.
Once again appreciate the prompt help.

it's hard to answer your question without any other details. do you use any widgets? any apps that might cause waking of the device? use apps that could show the wakelocks during deep sleep
I use the s health, the clock and calender and the track id however I went back to the store even after reset the issue was there They said I can change the fone but didn't have the black color ( white to me looks tacky) so I got the m8 instead. Thnx for the help.

change location service mode to power saving when not using maps, change to gps only when you need. Turn off bluetooth and wifi tethering. Switch to HSPA when you're using map because you don't need lte speed.
I'm using CM 11 (4.4.2) and MKernel.
As the title says,I am experiencing massive battery drains for no apparent reason.I charge my tablet at night (because it doesn't only discharge instantly,but also takes forever to charge - even if i'm not using it),at 12,I unplug it at 5-6 in the morning,and when I get back home at 2-3 it has 40-60% battery left.Not to mention how fast it discharges when I use it during the day.(like 1-2% per minute when I am just browsing)This shows in android: http://m.imgur.com/ZxxQZFu and this in gsam: http://m.imgur.com/UecetMU,BEa31nR,azM4kqq,DS5Ts3e,Sz5PQYv (i know,custom kernel,but the stock one was draining almost the same percent).I've disabled some gms services with android tuner but I dont't see a major change.FYI: my location ,location history,sync are always off and thre brightness is almost always at 0% and I don't have any rouge app. Any ideas what could it be?
BTW: Does anybody know what (wrong) service I disabled because no google app is able to connect to the internet anymore.

Maybe,but I have no ideea which one could.I can give you a list with my apps if you want.
Those screen shots aren't the helpful ones. You need screens of held awake time, and times waking device from Gsam. The main Gsam screen is helpful too.
....and you need Gsam root companion installed to see those wake screens.
