Slow phone, poor battery life lately - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I have a G2 D802 International version (more info in the end of the post)
Rom is CloudyG2 v3.3 Android 5.0.2, but the problem is not related to this rom only, as it was also present with the Stock ROM.
I face a lot of slowdowns and a poor battery life even with the phone left on standby.
I don't recall that the same happened on Kitkat.
Things I tried:
- Clearing/wiping the cache partition, only closing all running apps makes it faster again but for a short while.
- Use Watchdog task manager to check if an app consumes CPU but it doesn't show something specific.
PS: I always do a full wipe when installing a new rom
Question is, how can I effectively check which app/process consumes cpu/battery.
Phone: LG G2 D802 (International) 16Gb version.
Rom: CloudyG2 v3.3
Android 5.0.2
Kernel: 3.4.0
Build number: SRKDeBloatG2-2-00.TomYum-Kung
Root: rooted.
Recovery: TWRP
Apps that may be left open in the background(if it matters):
Google maps, Outlook, Messenger, Whatsapp, Facebook, Chrome.
but these have been always the same, even when the performance was OK on kitkat

Just uninstall all apps you don't need. Like Facebook etc. Just go to the mobile page of the ones you need.
Also you can do a full wipe, internal sd card included. Then transfer install files to phone in TWRP. Than flash again. Don't use backup for the apps and install just the ones u need.
good luck!

Thanks @PhoenixNLx, I already wiped everything before, it comes back again.
as of the Apps I need them all, I did for sometime use facebook's website instead of the app, but the other apps I do need them.
I just wish if someone could guide me how to hunt down this problem by knowing the cause.
I also read that some performance problems were fixed in 5.1.1, so I would appreciate if anyone recommends a rom.

Thanks, I'll keep an eye on it, if a stable marshmallow version is not released within 3 month I'll give it a try (I have no time at the moment to reinstall everything )

There is stable Marshmallow.

sorry when I meant I'll be waiting for a stable rom, I meant without the early bugs in CM which are still not totally fixed,
but I think I'll lose my temper with my phone and install your rom after a week from now

Update for anyone viewing this thread in the feature,
I've installed Bliss Rom 6.0 (android 6.0 Marshmallow) and it has been a week since then,
the rom speed, battery usage and features are amazing and I don't face any slowness anymore.

Great to know! For future reference also there is an app called wakelock detector tells you what's eating your battery life

Question, if you are not rooted what is a good app that detects what's eating your battery life? I'm losing 15% on avg during the night and as far as I know nothing is running (bluetooth/location is off) and the phone is left in the same spot.

I had the same problems with the stock rom, but with CyanogenMod 12.1 I neither had battery problems nor slowdowns, the same with CM 13 nightlys now. On average, my g2 reaches up to 2 days battery running time.?

Q: How does OpenDelta auto updater work?
AA1973 said:
At first, OpenDelta will check if a Rom Zip is available on your device. If OpenDelta doesn't find it, it will download a Rom. (~170mb) From then, it will only download the difference (delta) and patches the initial Rom zip within internal SD /OpenDelta. Then, after the patch, the Rom zip will be around 280mb, as it is uncompressed.

Q: Why does OpenDelta freeze from time to time when trying to update the ROM?
@Chainfire is still working on it:
Chainfire said:
FYI, people still suffering from the OTA updater freezing mid-verify, mid-download or mid-patch, we've found a lot of way how it didn't get fixed Putting the sdcard handling code in debug mode gets rid of the problem, but obviously we don't want to do that in production, eh!

Soft keys aka navigation bar
Edit build.prop (use preferred ROM Toolbox lite/pro or a suitable root file explorer)
Add the following line at the end:

qemu.hw.mainkeys=0
You'll get navigation bar / soft keys and the desired layout of lockscreen.

General probs I have with Rom
_
I would love to use this rom as my daily driver but due to some issues I have reverted to my previous setup slimsabre.
Phone gets very hot whilst charging - but charges at acceptable rate. I have replaced battery but still same.
Sometimes phone gets very hot even when not in use - I could not find any reason even looking at better batt stats and cpu spy - tried reinstalling rom and gapps only and this still happened - Phone would just become very hot to hold at some random time.
Any help on this appreciated as I do not know what is causing this.

having really bad battery drain.. using latest raw kernel.. any suggestions? maybe another supported kernel with better batterylife?

If you got the new battery cheap off eBay or similar it's a good chance that it's fake. I've had a couple of those, heating up to the point where you're afraid of damages.
Sent from my phone using some app
When I first installed Omni my phone stayed hot for ages. It turned out that Google+, which normally I do not use and have frozen on previous ROMs, was going absolutely nuts doing some sort of background sync and downloading truckloads of data. The app was running in the background for over an hour with the CPU cores pretty much maxed out. Maybe your problem is the same. Maybe not. Eventually G+ finished its evil work and the phone performance and temperature returned to normal.
I ran with the ROM for a few days and it seemed stable, but I've actually reverted to Samsung's latest stock ROM as KitKat really wasn't doing it for me. Basically I saw no tangible benefits but did lose some convenient features and interface changes were definitely a backward step with Omni. Maybe when it's matured and ART is working fully I'll take another run at it.

Omni kernel(with SD access) was only available after flashing ROM since 12th Dec nightly, so it depends what rom you're on right now. Or perhaps you flashed Raw Kernel over it?
I would advise you to do a clean install. There's no other kernel available right now for 4.4 But it should work.

i solved it by flashing the Google keyboard from the pa gapps thread.
rebooting the device after clearing the aosp keyboard data didn't work.
the Google keyboard has no difference over the aosp one but has a working gesture typing.
you could do that too
-download Google keyboard zip
-reboot to recovery
-flash the zip
-clear cache and dalvik cache
-reboot
-select Google keyboard from settings->language and input
done
hope it helps

Guys, a little confused here,
is openDelta already integrated into the 12/15 Nightly?
if so, then why is it trying to download the whole ROM?
I think the first time we use it, it Downloads the entire ROM and then the next time it checks hashes and then only downloads updated files...
please clarify, as I thought It only downlods changed files and checks hash for that.
thought downloading fails midway, tried almost 7-8 times now,
I already increased the screen time on to 30 minues, what else can I do to get it downloaded completely
Unhappy slow charging and poor battery life.. over heating while using mobile interne
First of all many thanks for developing such a good rom. everything is upto the mark the only critical issue i am facing is very very slow charging, and along with very poor battery life i am using build of 12-12-2013. i charge my phone to 100% (it takes almost 6hrs) and it drains within 1hr (normal usage). Also i tried with two other new batteries as well same issue.
And there is one more issue whenever we change the music (forward/play-pause) using headset screen automatically turns on. Screen also turns on automatically sometimes without going on anything.
Phone over heats while running multiple application or using internet
Screen brightness is way to high on automatic setting mode even though i adjusted it with the flux response settings, in the settings of phone.
Guys please help me out i don't know much abt anroid programming and bug fixing please.

For battery drain. Install better battery stats as system app (settings > advanced) which you can find on xda. Check which app and service is driving your phone nuts.

JuSt rooted my phone (PB1 locked bootlader) what is the best ROM available to me?

I know it is a subjective question but what would you recommend? I'm hoping phoenix ROM becomes available to me. My main reason for rooting was to delete all of the Verizon and Samsung bloatware, but now I am interested in custom roms. Thanks a lot!
I'm on Phoenix ROM right now and it's really great, battery life is awful on Phoenix though so I'm considering going back to VanirAOSP

If you do not mind being on a 5.0 rom, OptimalROM has amazing battery life and is extremely stable. Viper4Android works on it 9/10 times where other ROMs have a success rate of around 6/10 (I have noticed significant abnormal status on other ROMs in comparison). If you are into Xposed, also works just fine. All S5 features work- including call recording, fingerprint, etc. I have yet to find a bug other than the S Health heart-rate bug (which was present in the stock ROM at the time).

High Battey drain, KernelOS?

Hi! Could anyone help me figure out why I have such high battery drain? I get about 2,5 hours of screen on time if I'm lucky. This is only on AOSP roms. According to GSMbattery it's "kernel is" that drains the most battery. I also have betterbatterystats installed but I'm not sure how the read that app.

KernelOS doesn't exist, that's what i mean. every android iteration has something called a kernel, which manages the CPU and stuff. it's a part of the system, and not an OS at all. If you don't know what that is I wouldn't recommend that you poke around, you might slip up and DFU brick your phone...
By reinstall the system I mean:
-go to TWRP
-wipe system, data, cache, dalvik
-flash the A2017X universal bootstack, the modem file for your phone, the ROM, the OpenGApps if you want to have Google stuff, Magisk or SuperSU for root
-Reboot and use

I don't think it's got anything to do with wakelocks as it doesn't use barely any battery when the screen is off. Overnight it might use 3-4 percent. Over 2 hours in the day it only drains 1 percent.
I use the modem from the LOS thread and I have the G model of the phone.

Hi! Could anyone help me figure out why I have such high battery drain? I get about 2,5 hours of screen on time if I'm lucky. This is only on AOSP roms. According to GSMbattery it's "kernel is" that drains the most battery. I also have betterbatterystats installed but I'm not sure how the read that app.
This is the data from GSM -> kernel OS:

Hi Senny22. Were you able to figure it out as I have the same issue with official RR ROM. I also tried to reinstall things from scratch without luck. Thanks

Hi. Since yesterday I run dark room as opposed to RR official. I did factory reset using twrp 3.1.1.0. Before changing roms I tried to install different modems. Currently b06 since I have G version. According to stats phone does sleep yet battery drain is high. I think last night lost like 40% or even more. Not sure when this all started. I've been using RR for months without any issue. The thing is that I was always charging my phone at night so I don't know when exactly this started to happen. Perhaps there is a hardware issue. I will try to get back to stock this weekend if no other solution is found. Cheers

which is the best battery backup rom for redmi note 7?

i don't play game on my mobile. all I do is talking with my GF, random youtubing, social apps, music, so all i care about is SOT! PERFORMANCE is my second priority. which rom would be best for me?
Try Superior OS.

Mmm... Best battery backup is in Miui roms, although AOSP roms don't have the worst battery backup neither...
Personally my best battery backup was in MiuMix rom, but I know that some people have better battery life than me with AOSP roms.. Then I think you should try some of our recommendations and chose according your own experience... ?

Do use use this rom? How much screen on time you get?
I'm using lastest MIUI10 of xiaomi.eu and so far so good, easy can get around 8~10hrs of SOT with just social media (messenger, whatsapp, instagram) and some random youtube/browsing, and even with light gaming, 1~2 hours of not so heavy games like Clash Royale.
But is up to you to go and test the roms until you find the one that suits better for your use, for example you can test the AOSiP Pizza of AmulyaX, it seems to have a good battery backup See this cap

Well, good thing about xiaomi.eu is that they debloat the ROM by default, so if you are using your stock MIUI, you could try Saki tool to debloat it Here's the link with tutorial.
AFAIK, many things in stock MIUI consume battery in background, also depending of the MIUI version of your phone it can do an impact too, EEA/Global, etc, because some version have battery drain, like for example my RN7 is global, when I was on 10.3.6.0 my SOT was lower than on the default version that came out-of-the-box with the phone that was 10.2.3.0 (a really weird version cuz i never found it again, it's global PFGMIXM).
I don't have my screenshot of 8-9hours of SOT, but I have this ones from yesterday. (As you can see, 5h of SOT with 42% percent left and from that, 2h were playing PUBG in Balance Graphics)
As I said, you can go and try ROMS until you found the one with better backup for your use, as today almost all custom roms are updated and improved compared to 2month ago. :good:

I have read the tutorial. I'm a noob in this themes of debloat the bootloader and how to install ROMs correctly. Also I dont know what are the consequences of debloating your mobile, only I have heard that I have to do a backup copy. If you could explain me some things it would be a pleasure. I can send you a link to a telegram chat and help me. Ty.

To debloat you just need to follow the tutorial in the link i gave you, is not needed to unlock the bootloader, that's another thing. (Debloating is just uninstalling system apps that are safe to remove and that actually doesn't impact your phone system, most of this apps just gather information to share it on the servers of it owners like Xiaomi for ads and etc)
Just install the ADB/Fastboot drivers Here's the link
Activate the USB debug in developer options Here's the link
You will need JRE (JavaRuntime) for Saki Tool Here's the link
Download Saki tool, it also have instruction of how to use it on GitHub Here's the link

As i stated in my edit of the previous post (Debloating is just uninstalling system apps that are safe to remove and that actually doesn't impact your phone system, most of this apps just gather information to share it on the servers of it owners like Xiaomi for ads and etc). Saki tool works like this, if you "uninstall" the app it just remove it from the running system but not from the system image or partition, that means that you can re-install again with the same tool (Saki), you will still get your OTA updates, next Android 10 (MIUI 11) will be for next year to be stable, betas are starting soon, so no worries with it, also read the post about the tool This link in the replies you will find some usefull information as which apps you can remove and so on, also any doubts about it wrote it there, good luck. :good:

Yes one doubt more. In your previous post, you didn't say anything of ROMs. I mean, if you are using a specific ROM, can you tell me what is? Because I don't understand if after install saki tool I have to install my preferred ROM or there are some recommended ROMs to install. Thank you for all the explanation really.

I said in the first post, Saki tool is for MIUI usually used on the stock rom (The one your phone came with, I mean if your phone is untouched), because as stock you can't do any much change without root and so on, so the tool helps you out to debloat without the need of unlock your bootloader / root your ROM. Now if you are going to unlock your bootloader to start testing custom ROMS that's another topic.
Also I said i'm using a Custom ROM, the lastest MIUI 10 rom from Xiaomi.eu, they build Miui rom based on China developer ones without all the bloat-apps, you can google a bit and read about Xiaomi.eu on their website.
So in resume, Saki if a Java based tool that you can run on your PC, and will help you out to debloat (manually selecting the apps you want to uninstall of your stock ROM) and also have some other features for phones with unlocked bootloader. But basically is used for the ppl who doesn't want to unlock it, and be on the safe stock ROM, or to evade voiding the guarantee.
If you are going to use any other custom ROM based on CAF or ASOP, the tool is not needed because most of those ROM doesn't came with bloataware.
Very helpful, but seriously off topic...
pe plus battery is shaping up well. no mods, not even magisk, are installed.

Crazy battery drain after update OTA 12.0.2.0

Does anyone how to really fix batery drain on MIUI 12.0.2.0 QFJMIXM?
I made a reset, turn off bluetooth,nfc,gps, stop msa, mba services, nothing works for me in this update vs miui 11, my battery life decrease 50%.
When I try to reinstall this last update, Ota system never found.
Had the same...3h sot on 1 day... horrible
I'm gone to Paranoid, second days, 4h sot ans 32% left. Not excellent but better !
me too, i got +2 days standby (cell + wifi only) with miui 10, a litlle less with miui11, and 12 went crap (with android system using the most like you)
tried what i could find to fix it, but nothing helped. plus miui12 had a bunch of bugs.
luckily i did a full backup before installing miui12. i went back to miui11
maybe in future builds they fix it, but for now, does not worth it for me.
Do you suggest a better android 10 rom?
At this moment you use a old MIUI or a rom?

Im using the Global EEA MIUI 11.0.6.0, which is the latest one before MIUI12. instaled using the recovery rom with TWRP.
i tested briefly LineageOS, but in actuality, MIUI is more "customizable" to my likings, and LineageOS feels a bit basic. The "extra" options is the MIUI have is great for me.
i would have tested PixelExperience Plus, but got firmware errors on installing, an as i'm not familiar with the firmware arena yet (i prefer a phone than a paper weight ), i only tested Lineage prior to downgrading MIUI12 > MIUI11

Yes, Pixel Experience Plus has definitively much better battery life! I have 8-9 hours SOT (see screenshot)
Btw: Firmware flashing isn't a big deal. There's not much you can do wrong.
The problem like appear android system, have any app to know whats process killing battery to stop?

gsam battery monitor can show details, but in my findings the consuming wakelocks are needed system components , and not something you can disable and fix it.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gsamlabs.bbm
appears that xiaomi is the one that needed to fix this, unless we have a ninja here that can do their job.
i would do more testing but this is my main phone and i can't spend days without it, testing fresh installs and trying to find the root causes by trial and error

i had done all of this and other things, since i started using miui11. in my case wasn't enough to make the "android system" to reduce battery usage in miui12.
i started to disable fingerprint unlock, uninstalled most of my apps, removed magisk, mods, etc (they may be the cause of problems) and still, nothing visible changed.
don't know if this is a problem everyone having or only a few.

Install Magisk, get a root file explorer.
Go to /dev/diag, set this file's permissions to 666. See if it helps.

Up to you. I think I saw it on 11 too, not sure if that's the same problem.
I just know it's a recurring one for our device
