battery stats attached

You have really strange and incorrect battery stats.
It says that while your screen is on, your device is not awake. That's impossible. So the stats are incorrect.
My guess is that some app is constantly updating your location. You have to search for the app that is causing it. It can also be something like that find my phone from Samsung.
Why not update to 4.4.2 and do a complete wipe and start fresh?

i didnt notice that but im not sure, are the stats not meant to be like that?
ive had issues when going to fresh roms where battery drain is still present thats what's stopping me from moving..
with regards to samsung's "find my mobile", settings crashes when i go to "remote control" or any other options under that menu so im guessing i might have already disabled the service
are there any other suggestions?

If starting fresh on a new rom keeps having the same problems, then either you have a faulty battery or it's something you do that is causing it.
And no the stats are not meant like that. If you screen is on, then your device is awake. It's impossible for you screen to be on and you device not te be awake.

Hadn't really noticed a huge drain though.
Edit: I'm running DCv1.
Just checked mine. I'm at 88% display and 12% cell standby. Running Darchtrev v2.
Using DC v1
Cell Standby 70%
Phone Idle 20%
Display 8%
Android System 2%
im right there with you ajones. anybody have ideas as to why this is? i havent really seen a difference in battery life though. could just be a glitch.
Did you guys open the camera before you checked?
no. its been like that for a while. last time i used the camera was last night.
Not right before... I did use my camera today though.
I don't like telling people this because you can get in trouble by closing the wrong thing but... try a task killer and make sure the camera is completely closed.
Many Roms come with Astro of ES File Manager and those have a task viewer/killer built in.
i tried that. didnt see the camera as one of the running processes.
Maybe its an app running like goggles or barcode.
just checked. only thing that i could think of to have a hold on the camera is handcent and the messaging app. closed those. ill see what happens
*update*
so that didnt do anything. still reading at 93%. anybody have any ideas or are we just out of luck?

Terrible battery life

I have a huge problem with battery life on my G2. Everything started after playing with Kitkat custom roms and kernels.. With every single combinations (rom + kernel) I always have battery life problem. Yesterday I decided to go back to JB and see how it will works, but.. I have same issue on it.. I am using my phone for 19 hours and 2.19h on screen and 27% of battery left. What can I do to deal with this problem?
Also curious...
Few screenshoots from wakelock detector.

Here's an idea: Uninstall all that crap and test again.
Also, post English screenshot if you want help. This isn't a ->Insert your weird language here<- forum.
I'd clean reinstall a new ROM (I'm on cloudy G3 with native kernel) and just use Clean Master to help boost battery life. Mine is very good so far. Around 5 hrs of SOT and almost 3 days of standby.
To the OP,
Are you restarting your phone in either silent or vibrate? That's what caused my 1013 wakelock in the past. I always reboot without vibrate/silent on now, and have not seen this issue.
Secondly, game playing will use a lot more battery than normal. It heats up the phone and works the GPU/CPU. For example, my battery only lasts 3.5 hours with Ingress playing.
Third, looks like you have some Android OS wake locks. Do you have Google now/location settings on and reporting?

possible solution of kernel wakelock!!!! developers plz read!!

I don't know what actually happen with my G3 D855. Been using it for 2month yet can't get ride of this sh*t. I'm so pissed whenever I check the kernel wakelock. this is the reason why our devices cannot get last longer than other flagships.
I'm sure it'll be related with the kernel.. I've tried kitkat both stock and aosp and even the the 5.o lollipop, flash the rin kernel, still this happens. also i've been googling for hundred pages.. i really can't find the solution. Plz developers here don't ignore my request. or am I the only one that has that kind of this weird wakelock?

i have 50+ ipc wakelocks in my phone
I believe this is not a true wakelock, because while mine's also showing >100% of usage for ipcXXXXXX_sensors.qcom and other stuff, I can actually get decent deep sleep. If these were true wakes, I doubt the phone would go to sleep at all.
Probably just an error in a way BBS is reporting the usage.

Because system reported it as wakelock to any app that asked.
Check your phone's sleep time vs these "sensors wakelocks". You will find out that you couldn't possibly get this much sleep if those wakelocks were real.

[Q] Huge battery drain. Any ideas?

Hi
These past few days the battery has been draining ridiculously fast.
I charged it before bed and then it's basically sat with the screen off since.
34% battery gone to AndroidOS and Android System.
Better Battery Stats hasn't been very helpful as I'm not rooted. It does say that it's been "awake" 100% since unplugged.
Here's some shots. Anyone know particular culprits?

Delete everything inside your android folder in internal memory and memory card.
That would wipe all of my game saves etc wouldn't it?
Seems a background processing is keeping the phone awake. It might be because Bluetooth is on.
You can try using Greenify to Force Stop most of the apps (Does not require root). I find that my phone does not wake up much after it Force stopped most apps.
Do note that you would want to leave messaging apps running or you will not receive messages.
I have a Gear S connected by BT LE but I thought the point of BT LE was it's low power. ..
Ok. Update. Having turned off the Gear S and killing it's connection, that wasn't the cause as it's still 100% awake whilst screen off.
Ok. It seems to be Samsung's Gear Manager app. Uninstalled and it goes into deep sleep straight away. With it installed, even when not connected to anything, it keeps the phone awake.

Had this bug the other time, only way to fix it is by factory reset the device and reflash the rom, its a bug that was present in android v4.3, but fixed in v4.4+.

Go to the Battery details in your settings as tap the mm-qcamera-daemon app the details will appear see if you have option to force stop, disable, delete the app start do force stop and see if it works as it may affect the camera itself so wouldn't disable or delete it.
The issues in 4.4.3 I think it was and mainly affected the Nexus but is was caused by 3rd party apps that access the camera, I don't think the specific app was identified but if you have installed apps such as Skype, Snapchat, Instagram remove them to see if the problem goes away completely, I would remove them all then install them back one at a time to try and identify which one is causing it that's if you have these type of apps installed.
If you are rooted then install Titanium Backup and see if the app appears in the list and freeze it, I think you would need to purchase TB to get this option.
Some things for you to try before you have to do a factory reset.
