4.3 rooted, stock everything

try with wakelock detector or similar....
The statistics of default android battery gives no specific information

i tried wake lock detector .. it showed that the device is being held awake but in the wakelocks tab there was nothing that was keeping the device awake for so long

Do you have alarms or anything of sort? (it might matter)
Disable all syncs, try to off (most) of those chat apps like wechat and line etc(go to settings>apps force stop), wechat in particular drains quite a lot.
I don't use stock but mine is close to it but I deleted lots of bloats from TB.
I only leave whatsapp on.
Infact, try out using Airplane, if even in airplane the battery still sucks, try reflashing everything using bootloader.

the thread title says that your n4 doesnt go into sleep mode.. where do you have something showing this?? battery loss does not equal not going into sleep mode. have you checked if your device goes into sleep mode, or are you just assuming? use something like cpu spy to see if your device is going into sleep mode..

Indeed, try CPU Spy. I use unrooted stock 4.3 and mine deep-sleeps just fine.

Since update I'm having the same problem as OP has. Reboot solves problem for a day or two, but it returns.
I'm at the point when I'm ready to try factory reset.

yaaa evn i am looking for a solution

This is battery stats from the first day after OTA: http://imgur.com/Bn9B8FA
You can clearly see when device stop going to sleep, and Android OS drained battery for more than 11 hours.
When I saw this, I rebooted the phone, and next day everything was OK. Battery life was even better, than with 4.2.2. But after third day, Android OS was again on top of the list. Again, reboot had solved problem only temporary. Wake lock stats app does not show anything unusual. I'm runing stock not rooted firmware. If I do not find any solution, I'll just wipe it on weekend in hope it'll help.

Hi, I was facing the same issue.
So did you guys do a factory reset? Did it solve the problem?

I made a new thread with all the data, in hope that somebody could help figure this out, but two days and no one else posted there) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2392155
Nexus 4 is my main phone and I rely on it in my work very much, so I'm trying to postpone factory reset as far as possible. I think I'll have not very busy day on Thursday so I'll finally reset it and reinstall everything.

Google Services Wakelock

Hello everyone,
I seem to be having a very annoying Google Services Wakelock on my Nexus 4 Device.
It is using more battery power than the screen, and keeps teh phone alive 100% of the time.
I'm on PA 3.97 - 4.2.2 Android.
Better Battery Stats tells me under Partial Wakelocks that SystemUpdateService Is keeping the phone alive, as well as under Kernel Wakelock PowerManagerService.
I'm wondering what I can do about this. Because it is really eating my battery life. Google tried to update to 4.3 over and over again, which wasn't possible because I was on a custom rom. So it kept redownloading it and I was forced to disable the update system (I don't exactly remember how I did it, but since I have root I disabled UpdateReciever under updates somehow).
I hope we can find a way to fix this.

Bump! Still need a solution

You're getting the wakelock because you disabled the update service.
The only solution is to either enable it , and lose data, or update to 4.3

We are literally talking about 20 000$ + of Data usage if I were to leave it on for a month.
Unless google wants to pay me that money every month I'd rather not have the update service on. Not to mentionhow much constant Data streams to download a file over and over again would drain teh battery.
Also, doesn't everyone with PA (3.97) who hasn't updated to 4.3 have this. I'm on a custom ROM so I shouldn't be forced to update to 4.3 anyways!
How come the battery is a wakelock when I entirely Disabled the service?
What other google services should I disable to make it stop entirely from even trying to update?

That thread is about another Google Services Wakelock that has to do with the GPS. I never had that location setting on.
Mine has to do with it trying to update, thus keepiçng the device on, although the update service is actually disabled(since it doesn't actually download data).
Does anyone know how to completely disable the google update service in every way possible since that is what keeps my wakelock on.

I have absolutely no issue like you, i`am on 4.3 stock with stock kernel and no continious syncing going on bro and the cpu going into deep sleep without issues. Try reflashing to stock to see if the issue still excists.

That's because the issue has to do with ParanoidAndroid having a bug that it picks up the Stock 4.3 updates, downloads them and then fails to install them. I am on a 4.2.2 ROM, 4.3 of course won't have that issue since that is what it is trying to download. Also I really just want to keep this version of Paranoid Android.
So what I tried doing was disable the Google update service entirely a few weeks ago. And it has stopped trying to download any updates.
However, the past few days that same Google Update (which should be completely disabled) is still keeping my phone a alive, although not downloading anything anymore. I just wnat a way to completely just permanently kill the Update Process.

Hi
To avoid this bug: don't pull out the charger or usb cable whit out to wake up the phone, be sure the screen is on when you pull out. If you pull out with screen off powermanagerservice.wakelock will keep your phone to never enter deep sleep.
A reboot also solves the problem
Think this bug is related to the wireless charger bug.

Ok, I guess that will already stop 1/2 wakelocks.
The other one has to do with the update service still keeping my device awake although it was disabled with disable service.

I think I was finally able to fix the issue!
I downloaded AutoRun Manager and disabled
com.android.gsf.update.SystemUpdateService$Reciever, which can be found under Google Services Framework,
I already had updates disabled using "Disable Service" app from Google Play Store, which did the job for stopping Data Usage, but there was still an idle process keeping the phone awake, which was the SystemUpdateServiceReciever.
I am on Paranoid Android and might want to Update to 4.3 due to them making continious new cool features which will only work for 4.3.
First off, I would like to ask if the update to 4.3 was worth the effort for you. It doesn't really seem to be a significant update on the side on the google dev team. Secondly, how would I go about doing it?
I am now on PA 3.69 - 4.22 which is one of the latest versions before the 4.3 update.
What do I need to do before I am able to flash 3.99 PA - 4.3? How do I avoid losing my appdata, my pictures and all that?
I paid for Titamiumbackup a few months ago but I don't really know how to use it and I'm a little scared to update to a different version number as I have never done that before, and I don't want to brick my phone.
What radios do I need to flash before being able to update to 4.3 based custom roms?

I'm on PA 3.99 with BaNkS GAPPS, which I highly recommend because of the size and stripped way they are. I think TitaniumBackup had some problems with PA and root, but I'm not sure if they already fixed those.
You need latest radio and bootloader to update, I think the easiest way to do this is to make a factory reset, full clean and wipe all data and then back to 4.2.2 stock ROM. Then update through OTA and you would have latest radio and bootloader. Install custom recovery and then flash latest PA.
I did it this way and I don't have any kind of problems.
:good:

i am facing the same problem too. Running 4.2.2 (sentinel rom 4.75). google services is draining a good 30% of my battery.
so disabling using AutoRun Manager managed to solve the wakelock problem due to SystemUpdateService? i used Disable Service app to stop the data usage, but wakelock remains.

Yes, exactly that. Disable service disabled. That stopped My data usage (luckily before the cap of My data plan, if I would have phone higher it would probably have costed me a few hundred dollars.).
The Google services drain remained and after about 10 hours of research I found I found out the receiver was still trying to download it, but didn't get access which caused a wake lock. In auto run manager search Google services framework and disable the googleupdatereciever and nothing else, keep everything disabled that is already disabled

Thanks for sharing the solution! helped me on 4.1.2 after disabling only some of google's receivers/services with "Google Services Framework" in Rom toolbox
Better battery FTW!

[Q] Issues with Bluetooth Related Wakelocks on Lollipop?

Ever since I flashed 5.0 to my 900V, my battery life has gone significantly down. Now this can be expected to some extent as I can no longer use Amplify to control NlpCollectorWakeLock (which is one of a few wakelocks going to town on my battery). One of the others is bluedroid_timer, which is part of bluetooth. I did some searching and I saw some other people with the same issue, but no answers. I use a Moto 360 on a daily basis, use bluetooth streaming in my car, and use bluetooth headphones at the gym, so turning off bluetooth isn't really an option. Bluesleep is another one that is spending a lot of time running. Anyone have any ideas? I've read a few threads where people mention this problem, but no one has posted any answers yet. Here is an album of my wakelocks.

Did you ever figure this out? I'm experiencing a very similar issue.
I'm not rooted, so I can't see the specific wakelocks but it's absolutely Bluetooth related, even with all device profiles deleted. If I have the BT radio on, my battery gets hammered and the phone never goes into deep sleep, turn the radio off and all is normal.

I just started experiencing this as well. I'm on a T-Mobile S4, running a GPE rom. It started happening in the last month, not exactly sure when. I ran a rooted TouchWiz stock rom before that and I don't recall ever seeing it.
So you're running fully stock? I was curious if I installed some weird app or software package that messed with things, but if you're running stock that would seem to rule that out..

yup, Galaxy S5 with current Verizon build of Lollipop, not rooted, just Nova launcher and my usual apps. Since the bluetooth battery issue, I've tried reboots, clearing cache partition, deleting all BT device profiles, etc. Everything short of an FDR, which I don't have time for right now.

My solution was a particular app was causing it. Same for another user if you read the thread.
The app for me was MyRadar. Another user had a problem with Gas Buddy.
Both of these apps were recently updated to add bluetooth permissions.

I did see that and I am a GasBuddy user. There was also mention of NFC, that was the first thing I looked at. Experimenting now with GasBuddy removed.
I'm not rooted so I can't check for individual wakelocks, I have to just run it for a while, then look at the "Awake" bar graph in the stock Battery app, so it takes while to see if anything changed. I really wish Google would give us the choice whether to let 3rd party apps see the detailed battery stats, locking that down made it so much harder to diagnose this kind of thing without root.
Glad you got yours sorted out!

so far it's looking like GasBuddy was the culprit in my case. I've been running several hours with GasBuddy removed, both NFC and Bluetooth are on, and battery usage/wakelocks appear normal.
I'm gonna give it a day or so to see if the problem spontaneously returns, then re-install GasBuddy and see what happens.

Definitely a GasBuddy issue on my phone, "Awake" bar graph becomes a solid block soon after installing GasBuddy, and returns to normal after uninstalling it. I've repeated this test a few times.

I started experiencing the issue with excessive wakelocks from Bluedroid_timer on my stock Nexus 6 about a month ago. Noticed my battery life dropped significantly as a result. Used Permission Friendly Apps to see which apps were using BT and if I happened to install any around the time this problem began. Only new apps indicating BT connectivity were GasBuddy and Netflix. No idea why GasBuddy needs BT but I'm pretty sure I installed it about the same time the wakelock issue began. Good to know someone else saw the same thing. Just uninstalled it and waiting to see if the wakelocks stop.

Alarm clocks fail in morning S7 edge 935F (fixed)

I just got a new S7 edge 935f. I rooted it with magisk after installing twrp. I have tried a few Nougat stock roms and in all of them, my alarm clock fails to go off first thing in the morning. It will come on when I push the home button and for the rest of the day all alarms work fine. It is only the first morning alarm that fails.
I wonder if this is due to something wrong with the kernel, and if installing a custom kernel may fix this. Or is the a lib file that may be corrupt.
Anyone else experience this kind of problem? I read in a few articles and forums that it is linked possibly to a SOD (sleep of death) bug. Hoping some information can come from anyone else who knows of this.
Thanks in advance.

So a custom rom and kernel failed to fix this. In the kernel settings with mtweaks I even allowed all wake locks. Mos puzzling and even slightly frustrating...

Hey have you tried using a third party alarm clock so you can test if it's an isolated case or with all of them ?

Yes, I checked all those things... I wonder about MM 6.0.1 if the issue would remain or not. I found an app "SOD Killer" that I will test. It results in some battery being used to keep it from going into deep sleep. Have googled this and there are a lot of others with the situation but not a lot of fixes around.

I feel my alarms fail as well from time to time, but i think the culprit is, in advance features the easy mute function have you tried turning it off ?
It might have a bug or something with the sensor.

No I haven't tried that. I have mine working now. It woke me up this morning. What did it is the app "SOD Killer" which is on google play. It increases battery useage a little but until I find out which file is keeping phone asleep, it's a small price imho.

do not "freeze" or "doze" or use any similar apps to "kill" clock app in background.
which means, clock app needs to run to have alarm working.

I don't kill or freeze anything. Only thing I have to make alarm work is the SOD Killer app that keeps phone from going into deep sleep.

So a funny thing happened on the way back to Marshmallow 6.0.1 as I had just finished getting through setup and was about to start doing things on my phone, I got a notification that there was a firmware update downloading. It was taking me back to 7.0 and it upgraded my phone to the first version of Nougat for Luxembourg. Then a few minutes later another system update was downloading and I installed it and my phone now had the latest Nougat for Luxembourg. So first thing I checked was the alarm. I set one for 4 hours later, and it worked. I also tested an overnight alarm and it also worked. So now I have working alarms. Still going to downgrade back to 6.0.1 though, just feels better than Nougat to me.

Battery drains incredibly fast

Hey, so lately I've been experiencing incredibly fast battery drain, I am confused of why this is happening, I rooted my phone and tried doing some things to improve it, but that didn't help. When I first got my phone the battery was extremely good. I've just recently flashed stock firmware but it's still terrible, does anyone know any tips or tricks, maybe the root of my problem? I'll drop some screenshots as well.

Try running "diagnose" under Smart Doctor and see if it comes up with a misbehaving app.

You should try update system apps from dedicated menu.

This does not look THAT bad. Really.
Snapchat... Facebook Messenger... Facebook dedicated app.
Also that battery monitor crap. Anything else similar to that installed?
These are true battery suckers, also try dealing with QuickMemo+ app, as previously mentioned.

You've got a point, will remove one of the battery monitors. I seem to be some improvement after the QuickMemo+ trick.
Although I really don't know any good Facebook & Facebook Messenger replacements. Those I tried were just not giving me full performance and they're not looking good.

Isn't there a way to disable Quickmemo+ without root ?

I'm experiencing the similar starting this month, and seems like the battery drain comes with heating surrounding the power button, are you seeing the same symptom?

Did you try LG hidden menu trick? To do that, you need to type *#546368#*870# in dialer and you'll see a hidden menu. Then, tap on SVC Menu > LDB > Untick "enable" (both options needs to be unticked) close the menu and restart it. Most of the users says that this method is also useable, you can give it a try.

Hey,i have been experiencing the same thing.For me is like android system and android os and phone idle eat battery as the same time as the screen.So that means i am using the phone and three things at the same time are eating the battery.I went down from 5 hrs sot to 3 and a half.I have done a lot of things like the hidden menu,the quicknote,conserve memory thing.I don't know why it does that and the phone is really heating up.I have not experience this level of heat ever on my g6.I use the h870 europe with january security patch.

You all call this bad backup?? Plz get your phone tested. See my phones's backup.. this backup with no in between charge

sounds like a rogue app, install better battery stats from play store and check results (it will ID apps chowing battery).
