[FIX] AnalyiticalServices ate my battery - G 2014 General

Visited process stats in development settings and found out GPlayServices was killing my battery and upon closer inspection I found out AnalyiticalServices was 84% of the cause, so to fix I downloaded Disable Services from GPlayStore and clicked on Google Play Services under System tab and unchecked AnalyticalServices and guess what, this is the first time I'm able to get 3 Hours and 10 mins SOT with 3G all the time, before I could get around 1 hour 50 mins on 3G and my device kills apps less frequently
Will post my SOT soon

Nope, it was the right service for sure..I tried it again.. Everything was ok, until I rebooted..
After reboot, I had freezes, FC of both the Facebook and what'sapp to the point I had to reinstall them.

Tried your solution, AnalyticsService is reenabled after each reboot.

@Pizza_Dox is absolutely correct about Google Analytics using battery.
I don't mind battery power going down when I'm using the phone, but Anaylictics drains it when sleeping.
I did a short test to show how much it drains. I've attached a screenshot of battery use. At the beginning GA was disabled, then I turned it back on, then later turned it off again. See the battery drain is a almost a flat line with GA off, then see how it slopes with GA on, then later almost a flat line again when its turned off.
The excessive battery drain here is only down to GA. Most of this time my phone was sleeping or in use for a few minutes at a time.
The procedure I use to keep GA off is to follow @Pizza_Dox advice above but in addition have Autorun Manager installed, its free version, and disable Analytics in Google Play Service . To do this enable Advanced, go to settings, enable the option to show system entries, find Google Play services and disable analytics, (third option down).
You can also safely disable the following wakelocks:
SystemUpdateService$Receiver
SystemUpdateService$ActiveReceiver
SystemUpdateService$SecretCodeReceiver
Be careful with this app. Don't accidentally disable another service by mistake.
Reboot and check GA has remained disabled in both apps, if not disable again and reboot. I found I needed two reboots, after that GA remained dead.

Thank you for the support and I disabled those 3 extra things and I'll see how battery goes on today, I will attach your IMG to op when I get back on my laptop proof is good!
Also I don't think we need disable services app if we have autorun manager doing it at boot, so I uninstalled disable services and hid autorun manager from app drawer, cause its one of those set and forget things
Anyways thanks a lot buddy!

You are probably correct about only needing Autorun Manager, I read somewhere ages ago that both were needed to properly kill GA, but thinking about it you are probably right. I also do this on other Android phones in the family.

Hello,
I tried to install "Autorun Manager" but when I started this app it appeared this message "You seem to have no busybox installed. It is a toolbox required for this app to work completely. (most parts will work without this too)". The problem is that I had installed busybox but "Autorun Manager" can't recognize. What can I do?

Yes you need to be rooted although there is a busybox installer for non-rooted devices on Play. Not sure what it does as I've never really looked at it.

Any alternative for non rooted users?

This may be a dumb question, but I'm unable to find the AnalyticsService in Autostart Manager. I found it and disabled it in Disable Service just fine, but when going to Google Play Services in Advanced Mode of Autorun Manager all I get is a list of 105 receivers and the only Analytics related entry I can find is the CoreAnalyticsReceiver halfway through the list. Please tell me what to do.

*Edited* NeoBuddy's ICS v7 Is open again and this thread is now closed !

TO All NeoBuddy was able to make amends to the dev he offended and I want to thank Jrummy for his stand up attitude and assistance in resolving this issue.
Listen carefully now, no more trolling or flaming will be tolerated, if we see this going on in the any of neobuddy's threads they will be closed. ***Heed this warning***
Move forward and enjoy your ICS as I do.......***The Moderator***
Just in case anyone was wondering, I believe the thread was deleted by a moderator because it contained pirated apps.
anyways, it was deleted while i was replying to some of the comments in the thread, good thing i ctrl+c'd my reply before i hit 'submit'. I'm sure we aren't allowed to link to the rom any more, but we can still discuss it and any issues with it.

Ok, so I added .nomedia to my clockwordmod folder and titanium backup folder in the root of the SD card. The media scanner quit eating battery after that. Results may vary... (i have not done the init.d mod, wondering if I should)
So far no big hiccups, I'm really digging v7. Great work.
Problems:
GPS when turned off doesnt appear to be to happy trying to turn back on without a restart.
Cant find/mount my external microSD card (doesnt show up under external_sd or sd)
Samsung official car dock will not keep the display on (but whats cool is in the desktop dock i now have a neat clock with the display staying on)
In car mode the phone goes to side orientation, but the actual call (when your in a call) does not switch to side orientation.
Can't edit the display settings for the home screen (icons, and "dock options) they just activate and never go to a menu.
Question:
I KNOW I saw a TV out option somewhere..... /sigh

how'd you do it? i did a "batch restore" and it seemed like it worked, but none of the apps show up in the app tray.... but titanum shows that the apps are "restored".... also i'm trying to restore the "data" for a couple games as well, so it has my scores and stuff that i've unlocked...

hey guys, just curious what is the notification toggle app used for? i've never used it.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
it lets you put shortcuts in the notification pull-down bar, for example, the most useful in my case would be the "USB tethering" page, so when i click it, i can choose to tether via wifi or usb, simply by pulling down the notification bar. the "icons" are completely black so it doesn't get in the way.... also the actual button you press on is extremely dark so it's barely noticeable, but just noticeable enough that you'll see it when you need to click it.
my question is, it might be a simple question, but in settings > more > what's the "WiFi direct" button do? and how come the apps that i attempt to restore with titanum backup aren't showing up at all? are they even being sucessfully restored?
also some goods tips would be in Rom Toolbox, go to the Performance tab and click on build.prop Tweaks and change the Wifi scan interval rate to 180 from 90.
also in Settings go into Developer Settings and turn on the Force GPU rendering and also in that screen, also change the HDCP checking to "never use HDCP checking"
I knew that would happen eventually when I saw things like root explorer in some of his roms. Bummer, I like his work.

yeah, but all he has to do is remove those apps, and simply reupload.... well since he had an ongoing dispute between the mods, it might not be possible to repost on xda, but there's always gonna be http://rootzwiki.com/forum/71-vibrant/
Looks like his backup, rootzwiki post was taken off too...
oh, and for reference, for people who have lag on their v7 roms, here's what neobuddy posted to fix it (again):
I suggest you need to flash fresh after doing these steps:
1. Open zip file on your PC.
2. Delete /system/etc/init.d
3. Place THIS file in system/bin
4. Flash it. Enjoy no lag but less quadrant.

you would "right click" that link, and save it to your desktop and remember to DELETE THE EXTENSION (the .txt), so you would have to "view extensions for known file types" in your windows explorer to be able to erase that part.
For titanuim backup i restored by doing a batch but having the apps ask to install one by one. Takes time but thats what brought them back with their data no system apps.
Didnt know what happened thanks for the clarification on the removal.
Hope things get straighten out.
Still on the hunt for the hd playback issue anyone got some ideas.
Choppy vid playback
yup, its not in the rootzwiki vibrant developer forum
hope he can repost soon or get another forum up and going. Just got home and was looking forward to reading the thread more... Good luck nb

XDA got topic removed due to no Source Code posted and Hacked Apps included.
I agree its my mistake to include hacked apps (which I won't include in next versions)
RootzWiki removed due to such apps used without consent of main app developer. Yes, the app code was from other app.
There are many topics in the Developer Section which contain such apps without consent of Developer. However, they were never reported..
I will be cleaning these apps and make new Topic at other Forums after having talk with Nelson.
I have PMed moderator at RootzWiki to clean the links and restore the topic but I am not sure if they would.

Galaxy S3 "Android OS" Battery Usage and Drain - Research and Potential Fixes

Galaxy S3 "Android OS" Battery Usage and Drain - Research and Potential Fixes
Many users have reported of Android OS taking up much of the battery. This thread is dedicated to fixing the issue.
I've gathered this information from using stock touchwiz (no non-google apps, custom roms, anything like) with Google Sync on.
This problem is specific to Touchwiz.
What is it?
The issue seems to be when your phone starts to get warm and lose battery quickly. It can happen randomly. Going to settings>battery will show that Android OS is taking up the most battery and accounts for much of this drain and warmth.
Is there a fix?
There is a temporary fix which is rebooting the phone. Rebooting may or may not make the problem go away. If you reboot, however, the problem can come back later.
What part of the Android OS is doing this?
This is what the goal of the thread is to find out. Once we know this, a developer or user could come up with a fix.
From one instance when this happened, I was able to gather:
Partial Wakelocks:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

}
Kernel Wakelocks:
*The phone has been in deep sleep for 5 of the 7 hours too
As you can see, it seems like gTalk and Android Talk are the issue. Clearly they shouldn't take up so much battery.
I encourage every to download betterbatterystats and show us data when this happens to you. Any information that you know about this or can gather will help with trying to find the cause and fix. Remove betterbatterystats after you collect the data since the app itself causes battery drain.
It seems to me that the firmware allows certain apps to go rogue and eat up large amounts of the cpu usage, for me it hasnt been google talk

Yes, have had this happen multiple times. One time with Maps another with Facebook then another with nothing in particular. Reboot or going into application manager and stopping them fixes it too.
I find that the Gallery app has a partial wake lock once a day. It tries to sync pictures once a day, and it stays awake until I manually force it to stop.

Nah, that's wouldn't work because touchwiz isn't just the launcher - It's being used throughout the whole system. Install a ROM like Cyanogenmod which is (almost) pure google. Then compare it to a touchwiz ROM. You'll see how much they changed.

Yeah, I've noticed it happen with Maps once, so I stopped maps. Then it happened with gtalk so I freezed gtalk. One time it happened with Audio_out1 which wasn't even an app so I had to reboot.
I'm thinking here that it isn't the fault of any app but instead the OS doing something to the apps?

If they download it, uninstall it the second they're done because betterbatterystats itself causes a huge battery drain as well. There's a post the Epic CM team talked about the app doing so.

Hmmm, thanks for informing me. At first I was also concerned if the app itself would use a bunch of battery but reassured myself it wouldn't since it's an app to help battery. Thanks for informing me that this isn't the case.
I've had an issue with a wakelock titled "bam_dmux_wakelock". I've posted in a few battery threads and found nothing. It is very random. I'll un-install better battery stats to see if my Android system drain drops.

Save battery with Tasker!

I've been using tasker to automate my gps and wifi on my devices from Galaxy S3 days, but I've recently started using it on my Note 10.1 2014 with a few tweaks and it has made a huge difference.
I didn't create these profiles from scratch, I edited them for my purpose and am sharing them with you guys. Import the profiles into tasker following the instructions in the pic attached.
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

}
Gps variables sets a variable when google maps or waze is opened and clears the variable when either app is minimized.
Auto gps automatically turns gps on when google maps or waze is opened and turns it back off when either is minimized. However, it waits 3 minutes after the app is minimized before it turns gps off. But while using those apps you may minimize them to check something else, that's where the variable above comes in. Auto gps checks if the variable is set before it turns gps off. So if you minimize waze to check an email them go back to waze, in 3 minutes tasker will check and see that the variable is set and leave gps on. If u minimize and never open back the app then gps is turned off. Sounds complicated, but try it and you will understand. I never need to toggle gps when using the apps listed, you can also edit the profile to change the wait time and apps.
Display (Wifi) is triggered when you turn your screen off. It checks your Internet usage waiting 30 seconds to see if 15kb has been transferred. If more than 15 hadn't been transferred it checks again in 2 minutes until the data usage is below 15 and then it turns wifi off and turns sync off as well. This means if you leave something downloading, it won't kill your connection, but if you are not using any data it will turn wifi and sync off. This has saved me alot of battery in standby. Usually if I forget to turn wifi off before bed I'll lose sometimes 6-8 percent. With wifi off I lose 1-2 percent.
Hope this helps someone out the there.
Forgot to mention...Root is required as well as Secure Settings. Open Secure Settings and scroll to the System+ tab and enable System+ Module.
After this reboot and the profiles should work fine.
Thanks but they won't import. Extracted them then I chose import in tasker. Selecting any one of the profiles, tasker gives me a "failed to import profile data"??
Maybe the zip is corrupt?

Rezipped from a computer. If it still doesn't work, I've included a titanium backup so you can import the data from it (backup your current profiles first). I'm not sure why it wouldn't import but it has happened to me before when importing profiles I've downloaded. Make sure you're on the latest tasker.
Just had a thought.....is root required for these? Some profiles yes, some no. The new files didn't work either but I'm not rooted. And I am on the latest tasker. I've been using it on my phone for a while as well.

Battery down to 76%. Android os is killing the battery. Stay awake time is 21h 0m 44s. What can be causing it to stay awake

You may want to download wakelock detector from the play store, charge your tab to 100%, unplug it and let it sit for 6 hours. Then you will see what is draining your battery

Lol funny. I actually just downloaded it from market now. I will do that. Hopefully it can pinpoint the issue. I'll get back with results. Thanks

most of the times i've seen this on mine and friend's devices it's google play service killing the battery. it'll go away after a while (i supposed after google snatches all the data it needs from you, lol) it may take a day or a few weeks, but it seems to just stop after a while. greenify will kill the problem promptly, but you'll lose some push notifications like google voice and gmail.

I'm using the latest version, 4.3.
What exactly is the issue your having? Have the profiles been imported? Btw check the OP it may fix whatever issues your having.
just update to the latest version on google play.
works great but it won't save much battery for me since i keep wifi off on sleep anyways. but it does allow the postponing of the wifi off now when downloading, as long as you set wifi to always on and let tasker control it. also like not having to remember to turnon gps before launching waze and maps. so it's not a great battery saver but a huge convenience.
i did have to edit the wifi profile. it didnt have an entry to turn autosync back on with the screen and wifi.

Thanks for the feedback. Personally, I hardly sync things on my tablet unless I need to so usually I manually turn sync on and back off. I find that even with wifi off and sync on, I get many wakeups from apps checking if there's an Internet connection available. I have Gmail on my tab but that account is set to only sync manually as I use my note 3 way more for emails, Twitter etc. But that's a personal preference.
Re the gps, it's very convenient to have the profile turn it on, but the savings come from the profile turning it off after minutes of inactivity. That profile came straight from when I had a S3 where after using gps and reaching my destination I'd often forget to turn it off then only realize after my battery had been eaten away lol.
Anyhow, glad it could help, even if it's just to make things a little more convenient

When you import the profile it imports everything you need, tasks and variables included. Check your version of Tasker bro.

G3 Bloatware list

There are many information on the forum in numerous threads about removing bloatware both LG native ones and 3rd party inflicted (Google or Carrier) for all interested parties maybe we should create a list of applications that are considered bloatware/un-needed and are safe to remove.
If a listed app is only carrier based please make a note of it.
As my share:
LG Voice Mate applications (not applicable in my country)
McAffe Security suite
Google extra apps (News, Books, Video, Music)
QTheater (For me useless)
RemoteCall Service - (Remote assistance service but if you are here I don't think you need it )
Also a request to more advanced members when providing the applications to provide explanation of what those apps actually do.
Here's my screen shots

Everything that is not frozen I'm sure works fine..
Still does freezing so much stuff helps? I think that the apps that actually do something in the back during normal usage should be a priority.

I have been pretty lost, as to which lg Bloatware I could safely remove, as I've never used a stock rom before
I'm trying your suggestions, Thanks very much.
No issues so far.
I only freeze things that does background work and I have no use for them or I use alternative apps. I also freeze so i do not see the icons.
As far as if freezing does something, it all honestly depends on the app. the Lg keyboard does wake locks for me or shows under my battery usage so i tend to freeze it (unlock my sammy keyboard which did not)
all of the google apps run in the background so the ones I do not use I freeze.
I do not delete the apks because if an ota comes out will be a pain in the ass to go back to stock without re flashing, which is something i do not want to do.
Rather than freezing so many apps, I just "Greenify" them.
There are still a few LG apps that I freeze such as Software updates since my G3 is rooted and don't want it automatically updating my firmware.
Some app still run and case wakelock greenified...i only greenify pure system apps lol the ones i use i greenify if i dont use it i freeze, including update. the day an update is out will unfreeze lol
good list, all other apps working without these bloatware? i think the same is the better freeze with TI and geenifie some apps battery wakelock

Android L Bugs Collection

Figured it might be a good idea to start a thread about various bugs people find in Android L.
11/11 Some of the bugs ppl have mentioned in the thread:
1. Bluetooth playback stutters and is overall inconsistent. **
2. Some report calls unable to patch through.
3. The Device randomly picks an app and said app drains the battery with extreme prejudice (personally it has occurred twice for me with Gmail soaking it up once and the other was Motorola connect).
4. Battery is not being managed properly
5. Ram is also buggy?
6. Google Now launcher working Incorrectly.
7. attentive display isn't working properly in all apps.

When using the volume rocker, there will be a "none" option. That silences the phone

I would love others to confirm this. My music playback on the L soak test build is too fast. It speeds up the music just a half beat or so. Everything is just a little bit faster than it should be, and in some cases it's hard to discern. But I have tested multiple tracks and gotten others to listen and confirm too. Music playback through Play Music is not timing the songs correctly.

Nope. Google Music on my desktop and Google Music on my phone play the same song in absolute perfect sync.
I'm having a pretty major problem where apps like hangouts and gmail seemingly randomly decide to stop syncing in the background. I'll get a message, and it will either not notify me at all, or wait up to several minutes to do so, where it used to be nearly instant.

I've tried that, I've cleared data on play services and google framework, cleared data and cache in hangouts, rebooted multiple times, etc. I've done everything short of factory reset it.

Yeah, my method for updating since I was rooted before was the toolbox system.img, then supersu into safe mode, then at&t modem, then update. I factory reset first thing after applying the update, but that doesn't seem to have fixed it. What's weird is that I'm having very similar issues on my nexus 7, which is running the 5.0 developer preview.
Edit- I factory reset it again. Lets see what happens.
Don't know if its Google Wallet or Lollipop but overnight my battery went from 90% to 15% with the screen off the entire time. And Google wallet was responsible for 41% of the usage.

Bluetooth seems unstable on my Honda Civic. Music was kind of skipping / jumping but the second time it was OK. Also, connection time seems to take much longer than it did on kk.
Sorry, should have clarified that my music speed issue is happening when I'm playing through my car on bluetooth. Ford Sync with MFT. Can anyone try playing through a Bluetooth device and see if playback is sped up?

I had to put my phone in safe mode https://motorola-global-portal.custhelp.com/app/answers/prod_answer_detail/a_id/94932/p/30,6720,8696/kw/safe%20mode.
Once I went into safe mode tried encryption and the phone rebooted, encrypted then rebooted again and I was good to go. Please note you must have a fully charged battery and it plugged in for it to encrypt.
Hope this helps and good luck
