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.

Brand new phone issues. Help please.

Good Morning,
I have just bought a brand new LG g2 32 GB with android 4.2.2 software version D80210f-AME-XX
Unfortunately the phone gets hot and battery last very little.
The reseller is refusing to support me and asked me to take it into an LG repair center with all sort of excuses
the reseller is Offerbank can safely say to avoid this online shop.
I have installed Gsam battery monitor and most of the battery is used by the Android OS Kernel.
I have attached a screenshot of Gsam.
Please can someone help me fixing this since I believe is an OS issue?
Thank you all.

Thak you for assisting me meangreenie, unfortuantely not, the phone is close to stock as possible, no music or pictures have been stored in the phone aprt the one I have taken in the lst few days.
I have checked the sync and all I can see is whatsapp, Skype and mail but theis behaviour is present even after restoring the phone to factory settings... which is the first step I have taken
Thank you again.

Check your phone for wake locks
1. Try Wakelock Detector - This app Detects wake locks and you can then use greenify to hibernate the app
2. Try Greenify - This app hibernates apps so they don't use so much battery
3. Try Titanium Backup - Basically if you find an app that is eating up a lot of stuff but can't greenify it or its just not working or you feel that its destroying battery freeze it with Titanium Backup - Be careful not to freeze apps that your system depends on
4. Try a smaller launcher
5. Don't use your phone for heavy usage
Thanks

Hi jcbjoe,
Thank you for your advice, I will try the above tools but is sad that I have a brand new phone and have to fix it myself with very little or no help from the reseller.
Thank you.

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?

Guide for hunting down wakelocks and battery drain (No Root)

I've posted this guide on reddit already, but thought it might be useful here as well. A lot of users promote intense usage of package disablers to reduce battery drain, but this is not required to such an insane extend.
---
After experimenting with my S8 for 2-3 months now, I've collected some data and constructed some basic idea on how to fight wakelocks without having to root your device. I'll try to lay down everything here under a few categories.
First of all, I'll say that I tried using my S8 with a package disabler with hundreds of apps and services disabled, and also tried using it with no package disabler at all. I did not see a significant difference. It's too hard to determine if there is one, but I have to note that disabling TOO MUCH can actually hurt your battery usage.
Finally, I settled on using the device with a disabler again, only this time I disabled things strategically after some investigation with battery stats measurement and wakelock detection.
The apps I used were:
BK Package Disabler + BK Plugin
Better Battery Stats or GSam
These are paid apps, but I am happy with what they can do. BK can be replaced with another disabler (as long as it gives you control over individual package services) and BBS can be replaced with GSam Battery Stats, which is free.
General tips on using these apps:
BBS will require your device to have USB debugging enabled, so that you can connect the phone to your PC and unlock the permission manually. You need an ADB command prompt to do that, and you need to give it the following permission with the following command (read more here).
Code:
adb -d shell pm grant com.gsamlabs.bbm android.permission.BATTERY_STATS
You can use BBS if you do not restart your phone while testing. If you do, it will wipe stats and likely not activate for another few hours, or until you charge again.
You should be using BBS to observe Deep Sleep percentage in the Summary tab (which should be above 95% when the phone is left in idle mode for hours), and Partial Wakelocks to find individual wakelocks that come from apps. Kernel wakelocks are hardly ever something you can do anything about and shouldn't be observed too much, no point in that unless you are rooted. The highest kernel wakelocks should be the ones related to your screen-on time - they are easy to point out as their awake time equals your screen on time.
BK Package disabler, or any other disabler for that matter, WILL require admin privileges to work on your device, so keep that in mind.
BK Package disabler should be used in tandem with BBS, only once you have found wakelocks and/or managed to understand which service is the actual cause. I will give examples below.
---
So, let's start.
Google Play Services battery drain
This one really sucks and it seems to plague any Android device at some point. Most often than not, this problem will occur after you do a system update without doing a factory reset. Last time it occurred on my S8 was right after I did the AQI7 update, after having very good idle drain previous to updating.
What to do in this case?
Log out of your Google account(s).
Enroll for Google Play Services BETA. To enroll, scroll down on this page and find the beta button OR Find Play services in your App list, and do "Uninstall updates", then update it right after that.
Turn off your phone and then boot it in recovery mode (Hold volume up + bixby key, then also hold power button) and select Wipe Cache - This will erase Dalvik cache.
Reboot the phone and delete system cache from the Storage settings
Log back into your Google account(s).
Charge your device and then observe idle drain overnight, or over a few hours.
If this process does not help your problem at all, you might have to do a factory reset to cure the services issue, or the problem might be related to something else, like a google service from some particular app. Use BBS to investigate wakelocks as you check your idle drain.
If this process helps you, but you see the issue again in future without changing anything, try going to the Developer Settings, look for active processes, and find Google Play services. Open them and then hit 'STOP' for each of their sub-services. Don't worry, they will restart on their own. After doing this, you might reboot your phone as well. Last time this little chore helped me out and the drain went away.
---
General Wakelocks
It's normal to get wakelocks even on a perfect system, but BBS will show exact percentages on each of them. Normal wakelocks usually show 0-1% of awake time for a session. If you start seeing numbers like 3%, 7% , 9%, or more, on some specific wakelock, then there is definitely a problem.
Wakelock battery drain will usually appear in your Android System/OS drain stats, so it's impossible to determine without an app.
The most common wakelocks for me are:
- *net_scheduler* wakelock - this one can be related to your WiFi connection. In order to fix it you should have access to the router's settings, and that is not always possible. If you do have access, you can try changing the Wi-Fi channel (choose channel based on Channel Width, for example 40Hz width on 2.4GHz network could use channel 11), and Beacon Interval (set the interval to the highest possible). I found this helped in my case. This wakelock can also be related to google play services - check the previous part of the post on how to possibly resolve the GPS issue. Also, the wakelock can appear under the icons of other apps, when there is little you can do to track down exactly why it happens.
- *com.google.android.gms.measurement* wakelock - this is a VERY common one in my case, and BBS usually shows it comes from Google Services, but always has a specific app icon next to it. In order to resolve this wakelock I had to do the following:
Open my package disabler and go through each app that might be using background data, or the app that is shown next to that wakelock, and then open their lists of individual services. I searched for:
1. AppMeasurementService
2. AppMeasurementJobService
3. Firebase... any service starting with Firebase in its name
These services are related to apps collecting some usage statistics on how you use them and sending them back somewhere, probably the app vendors. You do not need them for any app to be functional, and many apps don't have them. For some reason they can keep your device awake for long periods of time. I disabled them on ALL apps I could find them in and it seemed to resolve a lot of wakelocks after investigating the next following days. This process was probably one of the things that helped me the most with hunting down daily wakelocks as the drain is very stable for me now. For example, today I came back from work with 20 hours of phone usage since charge, almost 1h of SoT and 75% battery left. Other days, I have come back from home with 10 hours of usage, 1.5h of SoT and ~60%. I've seen a lot of improvement lately after doing all of the suggested things and keeping Google services at bay in parallel to that.
---
Bluetooth wakelock
This one was the most inexplicable to me. I never use Bluetooth, or turn it ON for any reason at all. I could not understand why the wakelock occurs.
Ultimately, my solution was to completely disable the Bluetooth System package and all services in it through the BK disabler.
I know this solution doesn't sound good to anyone, but at the same time it might be useful if you also do not use BT at all.
I plan to buy BT headphones in the near future and will be re-enabling this, and at that point I will start observing the behavior of the package once again and maybe turn it on/off at will if the wakelock re-appears too often.
---
Other wakelocks
The general rule here still applies. First, you record your usage with BBS. Then you note down which wakelocks appear on top, and google them as best as you can. Search is your friend here, as the wakelocks are endless and it is impossible for me to list them all and give solutions for even a small percentage of them. Sometimes you might get lucky and find an easy fix. In other times, there will be no easy explanation, or no explanation at all. Such is the nature of Android.
In some cases the wakelocks might be specific services that you can disable for specific apps. In other cases, they will be too general and it will be unclear why they occur. For example, I sometimes get *net_scheduler* wakelock with the Viber app, that can last for 20-30 minutes at random times, and still have not found a way to resolve that, other than uninstalling Viber completely (which is not a bad idea but sadly some of my contacts insist on using that crap. Telegram is your friend).

General Tips:
Use an AMOLED black theme. System theme from Samsung Themes (!) and individual app themes / status bar from Substratum. Do not use overlays for the system UNLESS you do not use samsung themes. I found out that Samsung themes do a better job at painting all system apps black, while some substratum overlays miss a few things. It will also be a LOT less painful to update overlays as you uninstall all of them and re-install them, because using Samsung for the system means less packages from Substratum to be installed. REMEMBER to always uninstall system overlays and statusbar overlays (ALL overlays if you want to be super safe) before doing a system update! Otherwise you can soft-brick your device.
Use auto-brightness and make sure to make it as low as you are comfortable with in rooms that you stay often in (like your own room, your office room, etc). Smart auto-brightness will remember you preference and you will hardly ever use more brightness than you need.
Turn off notifications for any apps that are not essential to you. In fact, I have turned off everything except Gmail, because I have a habit of checking my phone very often and do not miss out on anything, while notifications have become a bit annoying to me anyway.
Put almost all of your apps to 'Always Sleeping' in the device optimization app.
Do NOT always sleep apps that you need to be awake, like your Messaging app, Home Launcher, utility stuff like Navbar Apps, Keyboard. Put those in the 'Unmonitored' category instead.
DE-OPTIMIZE your fingerprint scanner from battery optimization settings if you are having issues with waking up the device with it. It is optimized by default if I remember correctly.
If you are feeling BRAVE, you can do your own investigation for each app that you use often to look for any services that might look like Analytics services. Experiment at your own risk, but generally such services are always a benefit to turn OFF for both battery and privacy reasons.
---
Overall, that's it. If I remember something, I will update the thread. Hopefully this can help someone.
In my personal results, I've managed to achieve a 0.3% idle drain per hour with Wi-Fi active during a test of 12 hours of standby. As visible in the screenshot, the Wi-Fi signal is not even perfect.
Here is an example of idle drain with about 1h 10m of SoT at the time it was taken.

No problem!

This should be on top! Thanks a lot!
The "Service Disabler" functionality has been removed from the latest app version due to Google Play policies.
Fortunately we can find the previous apk version in the developers website.
https://kunkunsoft.wordpress.com/news_2/
Cheers!

hey thanks a ton for this article! My battery is horrible...REALLY. 2 h ost...I've just completed the first part. please explaind better what do you mean with "sign out from Google accounts" step by step. and in my case BBS was not adb enabled...I was not able to see wakelocks. the command explained here https://alexus.org/howto/better-battery-stats-no-root/amp (the google play store version) granted permissions for me. maybe you want to update the guide! I'll let you know how it goes.
cheers

@brokich
Could you please point us exactly to what are the main apps with AppMeasurement and Firebase services?
Until now I have found only the Google play store app.
Thanks for your great guide.

Thanks for the guide. Starting to debug battery issues. Meanwhile tried setting up the black theme. What do you mean by installing only Samsung theme? Do you mean a specific theme made by Samsung electronics or any black theme from Samsung theme market?

Here are the correct adb commands to BBS, as shown in the app in first start:
adb -d shell pm grant com.asksven.betterbatterystats android.permission.BATTERY_STATS
adb -d shell pm grant com.asksven.betterbatterystats android.permission.DUMP
adb -d shell pm grant com.asksven.betterbatterystats android.permission.PACKAGE_USAGE_STATS

prevent colorOS from ending apps in the background

I finally found a system to prevent colorOS from ending apps in the background and not allowing synchronization.
you must be root.
these are the steps to take do not prevent the regular operation of the operating system.
A backup from twrp is recommended to avoid data loss or bootloop.
there are three offending applications and they are all system applications:
-com.coloros.athena
-com.coloros.safecenter
-com.coloros.oppoguardelf
packages must be frozen.
I decided to freeze these applications using TITANIUM BACKUP, and it worked.
finally the operating system is more fluid and has reported the following benefits:
- longer battery life with the screen on (since the system is not always busy terminating running apps)
- apps receive instant and scheduled notifications
- the temperature of the phone is always cold, the CPU works at lower speeds)
I finally master the resources of my phone.
the downsides of this mod are:
- inability to use the phone's battery settings, but this will not affect your use.
this is my experience and it works

Can't you just take usb debugging, go to adb and disable the apps? Does it need root?

Root permissions are required!

Hey,
Just to let you know. I did the same via adb shell and it works.
Battery section isn't accessible as you've put forth and the apps finally get their messages and notifications without getting closed.
Root is not mandatory.

if you can tell us the procedure so we can help Some other user who doesn't have root permissions

Thanks, your tip finally fixed my issues!!!
So you don't plan to upgrade to realme UI?

RMX1931EX_11_A.10
Thanks again!!
The only annoyance left now is that developer options are not persistent so that I'm unable to permanently turn off transition animations.

I am looking for a guide to be able to update the device with the latest firmware version
I would like to bring the device to its original state and then update with the recovery realme.
Basically I have a problem with spontaneous reboots, and I would like to understand if it is a hardware problem OR it is a software problem.

Enable developer option, switch on USB debugging.
Hook it up via USB, ensure device shows up and type away.
adb shell pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.coloros.athena
Replace the apk for the other two and you've done the same that titanium backup does via root.
I've done this on c23, android 10

I did the same using adb
But i am facing a problem now.
Now apps are hanging a lot like it take 10 seconds after pressing back button in WhatsApp and my phone settings, so is there a way to undo my actions or solve this problem.
This is quite irritating, i really want to solve it. Can anyone give me some suggestions?
Thanks to anyone who helps.

Write step by step what operations you have performed.

adb shell cmd package install-existing <package_name>

Worked for me using adb. Phone feels much faster and stand by drain is 1% per hour. But screen on time is reduced to 6 hours, from about 8 or 9. However with fast charging I think I prefer a faster phone with no app shutdowns to longer sot.

Hi. May I ask you how to use adb on removing coloros athena? And is it worked for realme smartphones on Realme UI? Because it said coloros not realmeui. Thank you for your answer.

Hi
In the glass to carry out the procedure that you did, is it recommended to return all the apps that you activate for the backroung to smart backroung?

I finally found a system to prevent colorOS from ending apps in the background and not allowing synchronization.
you must be root.
these are the steps to take do not prevent the regular operation of the operating system.
A backup from twrp is recommended to avoid data loss or bootloop.
there are three offending applications and they are all system applications:
-com.coloros.athena
-com.coloros.safecenter
-com.coloros.oppoguardelf
packages must be frozen.
I decided to freeze these applications using TITANIUM BACKUP, and it worked.
finally the operating system is more fluid and has reported the following benefits:
- longer battery life with the screen on (since the system is not always busy terminating running apps)
- apps receive instant and scheduled notifications
- the temperature of the phone is always cold, the CPU works at lower speeds)
I finally master the resources of my phone.
the downsides of this mod are:
- inability to use the phone's battery settings, but this will not affect your use.
this is my experience and it works
