CPU always at 90%

My CPU runs at 84-90% all the time, and my battery is hot. I get about 4 hours of stand-by time.

use advanced task manager to look at current running processes and apps, see whats taking up so much cpu, and either uninstall that app, or figure out whats causing that app to do that, there is a log app (cant remember the name) that will create a log of everything that app is doing and you can check it out from there, but id suggest running the task manager and starting there, let us know

The only programs running are Android services, all appear to be sleeping the in System Monitor app.

Run top from Term Emulator or adb interactive shell. That will display all the active processes sorted by their cpu usage percentage.

Memory/CPU Usage with adb top

Hi,
I was curious why the Hero sometimes is blazing fast, and sometimes so incredible slow. That is why I decided to root the device to see what's going on in the device with top and other tools...
This is what is showing up, right after booting the device (sorted on memory usage and not showing kernel processes:

What I don't understand is why for example tunewiki has a memory intensive task in resident memory while i've never started it up. Also these processes I maybe (almost) never use , why on earth start them for me?:
com.android.mms
com.htc.htctwitter
com.biggu.shopsavvy
Also the android calendar seems unnessesary because of the HTC calendar?
Why is the system keeping these processes in memory when they are not used? That seems like a waste of memory to me..
I know Android has a particular view on proces lifecycle management, however when I start a program, it may not use many CPU cycles but it does use and keep memory for itself...

I read somewhere that when a program/process is not used the memory is "unloaded" on the internal memory to free up some space, and reloaded when you use the program again.
But i can be wrong, I don't remember where I saw that.

Yeah... But top tells me otherwise.. I think the application stays resident (RSS) but CPU cycles are kept to a minimum. I think this is design when you leave an application with no service:
- Stop CPU cycles
- Leave memory footprint until needed otherwise

sorry my previous message was not clear (and my english is quite bad)
What I remember is that the process is still active (so you can see it with top) but the memory (RAM) is unloaded and saved on the internal storage. When you start the process again it just reload the data to the RAM

Why are you worried about memory usage? These days many operating systems pre-fetch apps so they load quicker. I imagine Android has just selected certain apps to pre-fetch. Remember, empty RAM is wasted RAM!
I would be more concerned with cpu cycles if I were you.

pre-fetching apps is somewhat different than keeping programs in RSS. What I see in top is that programs stay in resident memory, which is not easely reclaimable. It then will take (a lot) of CPU cycles to free up and re-fill this memory, so there is a relation...
What I do see in practice is that android is sometimes slow and sometimes quite fast, without changing anything obvious. I was/am looking for a reason for this symptom.
That is why I rooted the thing to be able to see some low level system stat's. In top I see that a lot of programs stay in resident memory which is normaly not good in linux/unix land..
If there is an detail design of how Android does this, I would really like to see it (and hope that i'll understand it). By the way, I have seen the presentation of process lifecycle management, but this describes inactive applications as "saved" which i presume is not keeping it in memory.
And indeed emtpty ram will probably never happen with a linux kernel because of caching an buffering...

I'm wondering the same thing lately as I try to speed up my Droid. With OSMonitor's new cpu graph in the notification area, I noticed my cpu usage was very high a good deal of the time. So I rebooted and watched it stay at 99% for a while. I went to watch the processes and it was tunewiki, mixzing and camera (android.media) taking up all the cpu. I hadn't started any of them. Tunewiki was over 90% for several minutes. I would understand an initial scan, but it's been installed for over 24 hours so I don't know what the hell it could still be doing. I have about 14GB of music on the SD right now, so I'm wondering if it has to scan through that on every reboot.

I wouldn't get too hung up about memory usage. The most important thing that will chew battery and slow down your device is CPU. And that is going to be up to the app developer and how they design things. Ideally, you want to write your program so that it doesn't run all the time - that is, it has a sleep state. If all your apps play nice and sleep when they are put in the background, your OS can then go into a hibernate mode when not being used by you (not tapping on the keyboard or doing other things interactively with it). This saves battery because hibernate allows halting the CPU cycles (when the CPU is awake, when it is not doing anything related to any app, it will be executing the equivalent of a NOP, which still chews battery). Also, if you have programs that don't allow a sleep (or rarely) , other apps get starved of cycles, hence you see a slow down.
As for your question as to why you have other processes at boot, some apps are written to start at boot. That was how the developer intended it to work. And some of these things, you don't want to kill. Some of these are even part of the core Android or HTC Sense, and if you kill it, Android will die an ugly death - try killing HTC Checkin and see how your Hero takes that!
If your system needs RAM, it will start swapping inactive app data out of active memory onto the swap. Use "free" in busybox, to gauge if anything got moved out to swap.

what is this "top" process ?

This issue has been covered in great detail and length throughout this thread:

I think most recent ROMs use higher values for the low memory killer. The trick is to find values that will on the one hand keep as much free memory for fast loading of new apps and disk caching. But on the other hand, you don't want apps too close to fast - i.e. switch from your browser to check an SMS and return to find it has been killed and needs to reload. Even worse, since the hero has a relatively low amount of physical memory, it is pretty easy to reach values which kill background services like your SMS program and then you start missing messages....
I will also say, that to the best of my knowledge, you are wrong that apps you never used open up. It might not kill apps which are not in use any more, but any app which see there was loaded for a reason. For example for the calender, I assume HTC's calender app still uses the stock calender under the hood - try to remove it and see what happens.

In my option, for the little hero to run Sense 2.1 you need a lite version (Salsa Lite), so you can use whatever you like... But it seems that from the lack of processor power, hero lags.
On the other hand, if you want a new version of android, a stock version is more of use, but if you miss Sense(like i do), you get bored of it.
@ erasmux => can you make a .zip file that removes recent applications in the Sense 2.1 status bar, i think it's one of the sources that make the rom laggy...

I am not currently actively supporting any Android 2.3+ Sense ROMs. If and when I release future Sense ROMs, I will see if I find the time for this.

Significant battery drain after latest update on S5

Hey all, first post here. Not a crazy power user but after my recent update my S5 has been dying way faster. According to gsam it's mostly Android system and kernel. Adding dumps

Sent from my cell phone

Just a quick bump here and also if anyone needs more info to diagnose or has questions let me know
Sent from my cell phone

Hi. I'm having the same problem. It only occurs when connected to a certain wifi-network. I'm not rooted, but figuered out (thanks to cpu monitor) that IMS service is the main process that drains my battery, (while doing nothing). When I shut off wifi, this service disappears from the top list.
I hope to figure out how to close this service or to fix its behavior.

Just another bump here. Mine definitely drains while on WiFi, but it's doing it off of WiFi networks. It goes down like 10% an hour off of WiFi, with consistent signal, and with no real reason except that GSAM tells me it's almost entirely "Android System" and "Kernel (Android OS)"

I just upgraded from 9/1 to 9/9 and suffer from way more battery drain than normal.
I barely use my phone, and typically have ~70% left at bedtime. (this has been typical for years).
Since updating to the 9/9 build, I ran out of battery before lunch....
There have been an unusually high number of changes in the last 9 days:
https://www.cmxlog.com/13/klte

Same here...
It's little unbelievable but I have this battery after many tries ... With marshmallow, btu last version.
First of all,I bought a new battery. I did a full factory reset and install only Rom with a gsam, to find what drain the battery. I leave the phone , no "play" with it, and the results is over 6% drain per hour!
Close Google back up, auto brightness, weather app...and many apps, don't need as Polaris office.
Can anyone help me to find what drain the battery and fix it?

What's The Point In Using A Package Disabler Anymore? I Have Been Seeing Things...

What's The Point In Using A Package Disabler Anymore? I Have Been Seeing Things I Disabled In PDP Show Up... But what's the point in disabling things when it seems things I went and disabled show up as included packages and included processes in Gsam when I go to see what all is running in Android System when I disabled a lot of those packages? There's no wakelocks from anything disabled but when you look at the included packages in the Android System there are packages I disabled in Package Disabler Pro, so what's the point in disabling them when they are the included packages running and included processes running? The wakelocks shown are not anything I have disabled. I'll show results tomorrow of battery usage and Gsam results and the apps I use before I charge my phone next time, so hopefully you all can help me pinpoint what is causing the wakelocks in Android System. I did a FDR on Monday due to high android system battery usage. So my phone, operating system, and battery could still be settling in. Right now I have 16h on the battery with Screen at 12% battery and Android System at 11% battery. I'm at 36%. I did restart my phone a few times and take off auto brightness app Lux and tried Velis but uninstalled it and I'm trying stock auto brightness and took PDP off a few times and downloaded it again and disabled packages so that's the reason I will wait until before I charge the phone again. I'm debating on just not using PDP for everything I disabled which includes packages and processes showing up in battery usage in GSAM and just disabling things I don't use that I can't disable in stock. since it doesn't seem to do much good because included packages and processes are showing up in GSAM under things using my battery. I had this before the FDR. Then it seems my gallery app went rogue because I was getting 31% battery usage in 8h 24m 18s the package com.samsung.cmh:CMH was the culprit in Gsam Battery Monitor Included packages were com.samsung.faceservice CMHProvider com.samsung.enhanceservice com.samsung.dcmservice com.samsung.ipservice com.samsung.storyservice My gallery kept doing weird things and all I had been doing was moving a bunch of pictures to different albums and before that editing pictures in Aviary. Now I also had disabled a few of those things causing wakelocks in PDP before the FDR. I just got this phone on June 9th as a replacement for a overheating phone. This is a brand new phone and not reconditioned. I already checked.
Can package disabler pro be causing these wakelocks?
Here's the apps I have downloaded. Accuweather Aviary Chrooma Keyboard Evernote Friendly Gsam Battery Monitor HP ePrint Instagrab Instasize KC Ready Layout Ovia Pregnancy Package Disabler Pro PDP Engine Snapchat WIC Shopper
I do use Instagram and I have disabled Facebook and Messenger since they are obvious battery drainers.
I disabled through stock app manager
Amazon Amazon Kindle Amazon Music Chrome Drive Facebook Game Launcher Google Hangouts Lookout Memo Messenger Photos Play Movies and TV Play Music Prime Photos Prime Video S Health S Voice Samsung Gear Samsung Plus Setup Wizard Sprint Fun and Games Sprint Zone Voice Search
I'm going to try an experiment and re-enabled 162 packages I had disabled in PDP and just disable things I can't disable in stock app manager that are obvious bloatware.
I'm doing that now. I'll post what I disabled in a few minutes.
So I now have 137 packages disabled. Here's what's disabled. <importExportSetting> <disabledPackages class="java.util.ArrayList"> <string>com.monotype.android.font.rosemary</string> <string>com.samsung.oh</string>

Sorry I'm not sure how to get a xml file to show on here.
I only enabled Google Drive to upload the xml file so I could post it on here. It's now disabled again.

Look for wakasoftware in Google play store. For Samsung devices.
It shows the actual services running from the application along with select off on toggles for it.

S7 edge battery drain/no deep sleep..

I have stock s7 edge,my battery was good but now is draining like crazy overnight.I cant find out whats causing for no deep sleep,in battery usage there is no real app like facebook or something, first thing is Android OS(theres a picture).I had 40% at 2-3 am and i leave the phone (no wifi,nothing) and when i wake up at 10,my battery is on 3%..I have GSam installed but cant find the app who is causing no deep sleep.Im desperate at this point,i did fac reset,wipe cache and all those battery saving things.help.
Edit: cant post a picture but Screen 27% Android OS 25% Device idle 22% Android system 17% ( 1 day 4 h on battery)

Did you get a recent OTA update?
I had similar trouble with the last one I got, and I am on the beta for OTA's
My CPU usage was sticking close to 100% after installing build G935PVPS4BQG1. Phone was always hot to the touch and the battery life was about 90 min on a full charge.
Reboot, clear cache, remove recently updated programs, re-enable previously disabled programs, none of the usual fixes worked.
I already had PDP [Package Disabler Pro] installed (to kill Occulus when not in use & enable Cardboard).
Used PDP to re-enable all the bloat, updated the bloatware, clear cache again, CPU still pegged.
Killed the bloat again and cleared the cache. Success. CPU down to normal ranges. Re-enable a few pieces of bloatware I actually use and life is good again.
Something else that might help if it really is a wakelock problem: use eRobot to turn off wakelock whenever you turn the screen off. I tried that for my issue. It did not help, but it did seem impact performance of Waze - hard to be sure as the whole phone was laggy as heck...

Me having the same problem but I am an existing PDP user. I never found anything related with Occulus, would appreciate if you kindly give me a clue. My device's battery is draining like anything especially since after last update.

How do you do this, please? In e-Robot I found condiction (Screen Off) but not action (turn off wakelock).
Thanks

Its is under Display, but this might be easier...
Save this in wakeblock.xml and import it into eRobot and you should have the rule...
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8' ?>
<command>
<event type="screen_off" enabled="true" />
<action type="stay_awake_always" enabled="true">
<param name="state" type="string">off</param>
</action>
</command>

Twrp and Nfc

Thanks. At least, the problem was Nfc. With root and Twrp, Nfc won't no more turn on and generates constant wakelock (no deep sleep at all).
I flashed CWM recovery and then phone goes in deep sleep sometimes (rarely), but Nfc wakelocks were still the problem.
So, I manually renamed Nfc, Tag and Beam apks from /app and /priv-app (since I don't use Nfc, that is not a big problem for me).
Now no more wakelocks and phone enters deepsleep normally.
Maybe flashing Cwm (via Cf autoroot) directly on clean stock rom would not have caused the "Nfc not working" and wakelocks issues.

First, at the moment, PDP is having some problems. If you are getting a white screen followed by an error message you should email the developer. Otherwise do not update PDP because that will probably break it.
I got 2 apk's from the developer that seem to have fixed it, but those are not yet live on the play store. They may show up in xda apps, it sounds like Samsung is objecting to PDP...
You might need to use the "show system" option from the menu at the top right to see the occulus stuff.
I used the "kill all bloatware" and then turned some of it back on (because I use them). Then I killed everything with Gear VR or Occulus) in the name.
Here is the export of what I killed. Save it to disabledpackages.xml and you should be able to import it into PDP.

I signed up at Samsung via my developer account. When I next registered a phone, I got a change to join. I can't remember if it was o the phone or in an email.

Cheers. I'll have a look into it, never thought of going through developers account
