How to detect the process that is draining the battery?
Does it exists a program to detect the usage of system resources?
No one is having significant battery drain??
no.i m not.all things are ok.
I notice a huge diference in battery life...
In normal use (no Wifi ou BT) i spend about 1% for each +-15-20min
How about you guys?
wifi consumes a lot of energy, so you can measure for how much time it will turn off from full battery. My battery fails and i have ordered a new one i will test it when i recieve the new one, but now it fails after 10 minutes of wifi usage
BA Very hot, and battery drains...FASTER.
I notice that i have battery drain since i've upgraded to wm6...
My BA it's very hot, i never seen it like this...
i have Wireless off, Beam off, Bluetooth off, low brightness...
Any one knows what's happen? Is it problem of WM6 or some application?
Is there anything overcloking my Ba???

Exactly the opposite !! If u want it to last longer , just reduce the brightness to 40% , believe me ull get surprised..
Xeon.... i have the brightness at minimum, but i think that the problem is not that... i always used brigtness like this...
theres some problem with this rom or with some application...
i dont think it's because of the ROM . i played Holdem Poker on my device 2 days ago it was fully charged and 4 hours later i got 34% remaining with Level : 2 Brightness , no wifi , gprs , bluetooth or MMC/SD installed . ( 1450mah battery )
well, it drains a bit faster, but...
WM6 is very good and stabble its a very good upside!
I've tested the following:
- No Wifi
- No BT
- No GPRS
- Brightness 100%
- SD inserted
- No operation at all (timers for backlight an turn off at 60min)
O got the following drainage:
HOURS BATTERY
18:47 94%
18:52 93%
18:56 92%
18:59 91%
19:02 90%
19:05 89%
19:11 88%
19:15 87%
19:18 86%
19:21 85%
19:24 84%
19:26 83%
19:30 82%
19:34 81%
19:38 80%
19:41 79%
19:43 78%
19:53 77%
19:57 76%
19:59 75%
20:03 74%
AT THIS TIME ALL THE SAME BUT I TURNED ON Wifi AND BT
20:05 73%
20:08 72%
20:10 71%
20:13 70%
20:17 69%
20:19 68%
20:22 67%
20:26 66%
20:29 65%
20:31 64%
20:33 63%
20:37 62%
20:40 61%
20:43 60%
20:45 59%
20:47 58%
20:50 57%
20:53 56%
20:58 55%
21:00 54%
21:02 53%
21:06 52%
21:09 51%
21:11 50%
(the timmings aren't all exact, because some times when I looked it had already changed the %)
In conclusion for each +-4min i lost 1% in battery. (remenber that brightness was 100% don't be scared )
Can anyone test in WM5 the same scenario? or in another WM6?
Mine is OK. I don't experience bigger drains than the WM5 baniaczek.

I'm having +/- the same values that you post....
2% drains in 5 minutes.
Theres something that is making this... My BA is HOT, i've never seen it like this.
Problem from some application or from the rom... but what?
i've also noticed the temperature issue...
I dont have that temperature Issue . Maybe your XDA is sick or suffering from an inflammatory disease ? scan for viruses
so there is not significant battery drain in this rom, test without the home today plugin and you will find this out
i can not test much until i got the new battery
i do not have the heating problems, it is now, working from yesterday 3am and now, it is 4:45pm and i have 37% remaining. my usage is mostly web
so the conclusion is that it does not drain battery so drastic - it wirks in normal amounts of energy consuming. maybe all with problems should think about new battery - i did, i can not blame roms for this because it was happening with my wm5 also and the same is with wm6 so the problem is in my device
Well fact for me is that it gets hot!
I skipped the WM5 hype so for me its a looking at 2003 (1.42) and this wm6 rom.
From my point of view its does use more power than before.
Wifi uses even more than before.
Its subjective and I can live with it.
@Flyboy
Did you have a home plugin or the standard rom ?
If so can you do the same test with / without it.
That would not be subjective and would may be point a finger
I didnt have battery draining problem with HTC today plugin , but i started to notice after i installed the iphone.cab simulator that it's draining more than 20% faster than ever !! I believe maybe it's because the plugin needs to load more than 30 dll files with 251 priority and 11 threads and keep them running in the RAM . Another thing , be sure to end task the Active sync because when u unplugg the devices it keeps running on your PPC as background process ( dont ask me WHY ) .
I am not getting very good battery performance so I started monitoring what was going on when I thought the tablet was sleeping. I am using GSam Pro to collect data. Out of 2 1/2 hours there was a keep awake for 2h 19m by system. Here are the details for that system wakelock:
Wakelock Detail: AuidioOut_2 2h 18m
Included Processes: *wakelock* mediaserver
Right now I am using Smoothrom with the latest franco kernel. This has not been an issue before. I don't know why it started doing this. Any ideas how I can stop the mediaserver process from doing this?
I just notice after 4.3 update, my battery life suffers a lot. When I check BBS, the main culprit is surfaceflinger. I know its all about the display it shows in the screen but how can it eat almost all the power? Max screen time I get is 2.5 hours. Anyone experiencing it? Last post regarding this says its normal but I have my phone for the longest time but I think the drain is not normal.
How is this possibile? (mahdri ROM with HellsDoctor kernel)
Have you got halo/lockscreen notif pocket mode enabled? If yes, then that's not strange at all seeing how you don't use your phone much. Those features drains some battery life through systemui.
Does the notification system drain battery even if there isn't any notification?
Can be..because it's always running. And it had high percentage because none other things were using the battery much. If you use your phone more, then screen will definitely used more battery than systemui. I usually get 50-60% for screen. Systemui not much cause I am not using halo/pocket mode. But then, maybe you can try a clean flash. Could be a result of a bad flash too.

Thank you I solved this problem! I switched off the notification on lockscreen and now screen is about 40%.
But my battery life is always very bad... 1% for 1 minute onscreen. Do you think is a battery or a software issue?
Thanks in advance

Nice. Btw, lockscreen notif doesn't drain much. It's the pocket mode in lockscreen notif that is. Try to do a battery recalibration and install better battery stats to see what apps/things that are causing any wakelocks. It's the best way to troubleshoot battery problems.

Any ideas?!?!
I'm at 73% of battery and I have used the phone only for WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram or messages for a total of 37minutes.
I have seen better battery stats than mine. I don't know If something's wrong with my device (I have warranty tho so if it is, I can replace it)
I noticed that wifi is at the top of the list so I'm not sure what's going on.
I have greenify set for facebook because It destroys any battery. Also I disabled my location in case it was google now.
Accubattery shows 55% consumption while screen on (3h 29 SOT) while 38% of the battery gone while the screen is off (80% of that time is in deep sleep)
In the android's battery stats, wifi appears above screen in battery consumption.
Overall it's 16h 45 min of total battery life at 5% battery left.
I have seen 5h, 7h SOT so I don't exactly know what to expect.
I really need a hand because I can't let this pass if it's really a battery issue.
Thanks in advance.
Maybe you want to post a BBS log in this thread https://forum.xda-developers.com/android/general/guide-extreme-battery-life-t3095884 to get proper help.

Nobody knows which device, bootloader status, dual sim, WiFi, apps, settings, rom etc. you are using. So please be so kind and provide these informations.
Also a full cycle of better battery stats is useful with all screens provided.
And as bullfinch110 said: there are threads(older) with battery tips
I'm sorry. I couldn't find a way to upload screens without external links and xda wouldn't let me.
Its xt1641, dual sim but i've only charged it with one.
Stock 6.0.1 Rom
Locked bootloader
Wifi is always on in that cycle. I've disabled today "enable wifi on deepsleep" to see what's up
I've also restored network settings.
