I'm using Razr M but the battery drain so fast even though I use it just casually.. Indicated that "wakelock" contribute up to 15 percent and Android System also a lot. The screenshot is above as you can see my phone was just 19 minute on screen. >"<.. No idea why.. I was really concern about bloatware comes with the device keep running background and drain the battery. Because the Phone Idle take most battery as well
The Three thing in Wakelock are
Orientation Notifier
ModemStatService
Modem Fastdormancy Mornitor Service.
Screenshot included.
Does anyone knows what are those belong to and how to stop it?
Thanks

Much more info is needed, to test if your phone has a problem remove all installed apps, charge to 100% and then check your batt stats. More likely than not something you installed is causing this.

Something is definitely wrong there. Wake lock should not even be showing up unless you are using some app to purposefully keep the phone awake or something. You must have a rogue app.

Yeah, I'm really suspicious about maybe some rogue apps run behind but no way to find out. maybe it's Viber or Whatsapp since it's always require internet connection to receive message. ... I would love to find a way to remove the bloat-software :crying: .. they ate half memory of the 8Gb Razr M, only 4.1 Gb Usable

does betterbatterystats work on this phone? I use this on my S3 to find out what's keeping phone from deepsleep. Then you can find out which apps are keeping it up.
It's not whatsapp - I use that as well and I get 1-2 full days on a charge.
You've got a lot of apps running in your notification tray (top left) - I'd pull them all out... or better yet, FDR and don't opt to restore your Google config then start over.
Unless you want to list every app you have installed those are my recommendations.
Non Verizon SIM?

I have the very same issues, but only on GSM as soon as I am on Wifi battery life is excellent. I am using a German SIM card (in Germany) which works well (except of mobile hot spot). So I am suspecting some internal service looking for a Verizon service, which it obviously cannot find. Any thoughts?

Go into your dialer and type *#*#4636#*#* then hit the "phone information button" then scroll down to something that says "network types"or something along those lines and choose the "wdcma preferred" option. That might stop it from looking for vzw networks.

Thanks for the hint. But that does not solve the problem. I have installed juicedefender, which in its default setting seems to solve the problem. The battery life with juicedefender seems eternal . However, the phone is less "reactive" to email pushes etc.
I am getting the pro version of juicedefender, perhaps I can get down to the root.

My gf is having the same problem with her M. GSam said GMaps was wakelocked-looped...woke the thing 1,271 times in the 8 hours she had it unplugged. Auto-location reporting was turned on (wtf), switched it off but it kept dropping. ~10 hours off the cord with maybe 30 minutes use and it was at 6%. We'll see what happens tomorrow, but any ideas are much appreciated. I know more info is needed but it's kind of hard to pry into unrooted phones...we'll see.
I had the same problem two days ago. Two words for you... FAST DORMANCY (google it). Thats the culprit and is very telling with the first picture showing the phone is awake constantly when wifi is off and mobile data is on... you can test it yourself, compare battery drop rate with mobile data on and with wifi on.
Solution
1. Root phone, unfortunately you have to.
2. Download titanium backup
3. Freeze modemstatservice
4. Freeze fastdormancy.
Let me know if this helps you.
Thanks.. i just did freezing those 2 service.. lets see what will happen then...

Can you explain why titanium backup is needed?
I stopped the modemstatservice and fastdormancy services. Hope that works. I actually did a factory reset and thought for a short moment that it has improved, but that's not the case. I can stay a whole day with quiet a lot of browsing on Wifi and us up 20%. On 3G I drain 25% in 4h
So I bought titanium backup, freezed modemstatservice and fastdormancy.
No change in battery drain. I would like to know if all the other who have the same problem are running on a verizon SIM.
Until now nothing has worked. Under normal usage, I get a flat battery in about 16h. Normal means 2calls (<3min) and perhaps 5min of browsing.
I am having the same issue - coming from a Thunderbolt I am still happy with the battery as it is but if the wake lock could be resolved the battery would be awesome...
Not sure what is causing the gtalk spike as I removed that app...
ETA: running Jelly Bean leak & rooted... I also reflashed the leak wiping data, etc... with no change

Sorry to hear that this fix didnt work for you. Could you provide more info regarding your network and if possible some screenshot of betterbatterystats or something similar. Maybe *#*#4360#*#* > battery information might give me more information with regards to your problem.
Also, if you want to do really help eliminate more variables, try using ur phone on 3G without installing any apps.
I'll try to help you the best i could. :cyclops:

Maybe uninstalling gtalk and leaving an apk is causing the spike since it is trying to sync. Why not leave it on, also try reducing email refresh time to 1hr as oppose to the default (15 mins). Your battery life seems reasonable.
Wake Lock Questions:
Anyone know what the bam.dmux.wakekock is for? It says it's for a power management system but I don't know what that's supposed to do.
Also the Ssmdcnt10 wake lock?
Those are the two that are running on my phone and both are running like 36 minutes since I unplugged my phone this morning. Is this bad or is it something that I could allow to continue happening? Thx!

I froze mine and so far it has improved and I'm running the jellybean leak with root; HOWEVER my battery still drains fast and when I was on ICS my battery life was amazing so I'm actually probably going to revert back to that tomorrow. I fed the jellybean leak since it came out early last week and tried everything that I know to increase battery life but nothing works.

Hi everyone. I managed to get my hands on a beautiful blue I9505, had some issues while SIM unlocking it, but that's done and I am enjoying the phone very much.
Now, I do have a problem with it. The thing is, it simply will NOT go to deep sleep. Constantly hovering on 384 MHz with msm_hsic_host using a massive 90+ percent of awake time. It is driving me nuts. Our colleagues and friends over at Nexus 4 forums had an identical issue, and I read 57 pages of posts and used all their tips and tricks. Nothing helped.
Attached to this post you can see:
- the original Nexus 4 forum topic - [Q] msm_hsic_host - Nexus 4 forums
- The Google Code page where people complained about this - Google Code - Issue 41855 - "msm_hsic_wakelock" process on Nexus 4 causes severe battery drain
- my battery usage and BBS stats - attached to this post
- Qualcomm's fix for the issue - link 1 and link 2 at Code Aurora
I can't make heads or tails of any of this. The only thing that remains to do today (which I will do) is to flash a custom ROM and kernel for my I9505.
Thanks to anyone who will chime in to this discussion.

99% chance that some app you installed is causing the wakelock. Install BetterBatteryStatts to determine wich app causes deep sleep/wakelock issues.

clear dalvik cache and see again if it does enter Deep sleep or not, as everyone said its an application if not it must be a setting like sync, scan, or even that damn old wifi advanced settings that kept usual phones awake... reconfigure.
Insomnia
My phone won't sleep, won't time out and tapping the power button won't shut off the display. This happened just after deleting bootsamsung.qng, samsungloop.qng and shutdown.qng.
I'd replace the three deleted files, but they just grew and replaced themselves minus the carrier logo. The Baseband version now says: unknown. I stopped and installed google maps, that didn't help.
The good news is, those pink blocks are gone. The bad, I did a factory reset and noticed my cell network connectivity is gone. Maybe that's the sloppy work cutting down the SIM, or maybe something else? I've reinserted that sucker a dozen times and no joy. Do you know if the phone will stay awake without cell service? Putting it in airplane mode doesn't help.
Any suggestions? Thanks for your consideration.

Cleared Dalvik, will keep an eye out (though I don't know how can it help)...
Wiping Dalvik did not help. I will try a factory reset later this afternoon and let the phone be for an hour or so without any apps installed.

Same problem here, my msm_hsic_host accounts for ~99% of the wakelocks according to BBS, even when the phone is in airplane mode and Wifi is off.
I'm running stock MDC firmware & kernel, rooted though.

Read this about the wakelock, has to do with bad/lower 3g connections:
http://www.google.nl/url?sa=t&rct=j...3jjunrjohBvz3zaNvrYSO5g&bvm=bv.46751780,d.d2k
Thanks for the link.
This seems to be a logical explanation, but I've disabled 3G, and it still happens.
Plus it happens when in airplane mode, without any (cell) activity. I'm pretty sure that the kernel isn't configured properly.
Is there a known kernel / stock firmware version where this problem is fixed?
It appears that I have solved my problem.
I reset the device to factory settings and then restored apps, 5 by 5 in 30 min intervals. I still haven't restored all my apps, but so far I restored some 80%, here is the current state of things.
Very interesting.
Please keep us posted once you find out which app caused the problems, or if the factory reset fixed it.
Did you freeze or uninstall any apps?
Did you remove the T-Mobile bloatware?

I froze the same apps I had frozen before. If I find the app that caused the problems, I will report back. So far it's all good, 6h of use and I'm at 87% battery, wifi and 3G always on
P.S. I have Wanam's 1.0 installed
EDIT: 22h30 min, 2h4min screen on time, 48% battery.
I'd say that's an okay result.

Maybe can will know what apps are potentially to reproduce the problem
Even though we have finally received the 4.3 update from SONY,
it seems like shipped with some noticeable bugs.
It's better if we can mention the bugs we have encountered after the 4.3 update
1. ) SONY Select
As many people have reported this service is not working in either mobile broadband or wifi connections.
Only a error text is shown as "No network connection. Please try again later"
2.) NFC icon
It suddenly get disapeared while it's already activated by quick settings.
3.) Airplane mode
When the Airplane mode is turned on by power button menu, it cannot be turned off using the same menu since it's disabled.
I had to go to the settings menu and turn it off from there.
4.) Network mode switching
3G networking and LTE network mode switching does not happening correctly in automatically (sometimes).
work arround found :
Had to go to the network settings and disable the mobile data
turn on the airplane mode on and again turn it off
enable the mobile data again then it will correctly jump to LTE network type
5.) Battery bug
Battery suddenly dropped from about 40 % to 8% (without any downloaded applications.)
6.) Overheating
Phone is incredibly overheating while using the HSPA+ or LTE data connection.
with 4.2.2 i didn't had this much of overheating issue.
Please share your findings also :highfive:
1 no
2 no
3 no
4 no
5 no
6 its normal
Odoslané z C6603 pomocou Tapatalku
1 - No, it is working fine since 2 days ago.
2 - No, this is a customization thing, if you flashed a firmware from a different region it may have been disabled. It is normal, you can re-enable it editing build.prop.
3 - No, it works fine on mine.
4 - No, i don't have this problem.
5 - It happened to me in the first two hours of installing the new firmware, but from 13% to 0% reducing itself in 1% increments every 2 seconds (and it turned itself off), it may be some kind of battery recalibration after installation, it hasn't happened again since then.
6 - I don't feel like it is overheating more than before.
I thing you should do a factory reset. I did it after 4.3 update and the only bugs i have found are:
1 - Progress bar overlaping text while installing applications
2 - Standalone wifi hotspot toggle widget not working (the one in the configurable toggles in notification area works fine)
3 - Bluetooth A2DP music streaming skips a lot in my BMW Car Infotainment system while not charging the phone. It could be some kind of energy saving feature on the bluetooth that it is screwing things up. It worked 10 times better when i was in Android 4.2.2
cheers.

So you reinstalled 4.3 and it didnt fix the problem? Some users said they reinstalled 4.3 (which means complete data loss and having to set my phone from the beginning ) and the problem remains. I dont want to go through a clean istall for nothing.

Did you solve it?
For anyone searching the web like I was for the fix, find if your carrier supports fast dormancy, if not then this could well be the problem. Try and find your device hidden menu code and put it in the dialer, mine was the G3 D855 so my code looked like this 3845#*855#, but yours will probably be different. Then disable it in settings, fast dormancy, disable. Looking at my battery going down now, I am unsure if this is truly a fix, but it might work for some of you. Actually looking at my battery decending now. Its not a fix for me at all. But you should give it a go by all means.
Article about the bug: http://www.xda-developers.com/xposed-module-to-fix-mobileradioactive-bug/
Details here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/general/xposed-mobile-radio-active-fix-t3137573
This should be considered a must have along with the Lollipop memory leak fix xposed module for anyone rooted even if they don't use any other xposed modules*.
This should noticeably improve battery life.
* Rootcloak is also useful to idol users because it allows system update checker to CHECK for updates without the "root detected" error. You should still not actually INSTALL updates until fully unrooted.
Thanks for the info Famewolf !
I've been closely following the thread but it seems this only fix the wrong reporting of mobile radio in the battery stats and only improve a little the battery life.
Still better than nothing tough.
I'm astonished this huge bug is only looked into by xda volunteers and not by Google...
Bazoocaze did an amazing job btw !

It's more than just "reporting". It's the equivalent of opening the door to your garage or outside in the middle of summer and then wondering where all your cool air conditioning is going. Check your power bill the next month when in this analogy you would have left the door open for hours and hours at a time.
It fixes a bug that dropped the instruction telling it to close the radio so the radio connection remained open using up battery needlessly. I do however agree that it is sad Google and others didn't fix this a long while back as it's been widely reported.

Then you have somehow magically fixed a known bug in all versions of Lollipop.
I have a 6039S with no sim card installed, and it still shows "Cell standby" using a few percentage of power. Is this a bug, and is it the same as the Mobile Radio Active bug?

You might ask in the actual radio fix thread linked in the message I linked to as they can better provide you details but it's a given that if you have not patched the bug then you still HAVE the bug.
So, does it actually work?
I think Radio active bug is not present in this phone, i have been all day on LTE and Radio active time shows 2 hours. which is more or less the screen on time, and the phone was 12 more hours in my pocket or on my desk.

Multiple people on the forum have reported they had to put their phone into wcdma mode to stop excessive battery drainage. You are free to believe as you wish. See previous posts and the thread related to the bug as it's not my job to convince you.
have used Xposed with this module and with the memory fix module for 5.0.x firmware for two weeks, but didnt notice any noticable battery improvements or less lagging,so i deleted all modules and xposed.
I don't have this bug too. Maybe it's on some carrier or some lte frequencies... report thing is easy but send logs or open a real thread about that is difficult for you Famewolf and you don't even know or you can't prove if the module do something on this phone execpt a placebo in the battery stats... So please stop send stroll people because their device work or have not the same bug or problem of yours .... (by the way i think the governor of the cpu is catastrophic and it can be better with a little bit of tweaking) Bye

Try reading xda-developer thread I linked to in the 1st post that talks about the bug. I agree..the cpu governor is crappy but until we get a custom kernel we are stuck with it.

hey guys now I can't permanently keep the data to " wcdma only" by going in phone testing (*#*#4636#*#*) remember that?
perhaps it is because of the "mobile active radio fix"
Xposed module because it was working fine earlier but even though now I have tried disabling module and uninstalling module but I can't change it to wcdma only, it keeps fixed on gsm only.
even though in setting I have it set to 3g preferred but because of poor reception many time it goes to 2g and back to 3g it is very irritating.
btw I am able to use 3g, can anyhody tell me how to fix that with fixing of mobile radio active bug
or is it a problem with the cm12.1 itself, btw I'll post in both forums

I use wcdma only mode all the time as i'm in a fringe area that barely has 3g in both stock and now in cm12.1....the radiofix module wouldn't have anything to do with it. You can go into the dialer and do a *#*#4636#*#* then go into phone info which will let you select wcdma only or you can install the "network" app from either google play or f-droid which when ran acts as a shortcut to take you straight to the phone info screen so you can set wcdma only.
