[Q] Name this wakelock

Hi.
I'm getting some weird battery drain on my N4. I'm running a pretty raw collection of incomplete things right now, so I know mmmv, but I'm trying to track down which program or service is throwing this partial wakelock. It comes up as "Google Services" in the battery settings and as "*sync*/com.android.browser/com.google/[gibberish]@gmail.com" in BetterBatteryStats.
See the attached pictures. I'm on a more or less stock early kitkat rom from PA, 0-day GApps, and ART.
I bet this drain will go away when some or all of those are updated, but I'm otherwise very happy with my phone as-is so if I could solve this without reverting to JB or Stock that'd be great. If I can't, I might try Dalvik again and see if it helps.

What ya still doing on the AOSP ROM? Get yourself a factory image and then tweak/flash away! its your 'services'.
If you don't want to change when I didn't as well (also used AOSP 4.4 for a while!) I just backed up everything on PC and factory reset and wiped data. It then resolved my wake lock issues, hopefully it works out!

Go to Settings -> Location, choose Battery Saving or Device only. In addition, do you use Google+? If no, disable or uninstall it. Reboot the phone and monitor battery usage to see if still draining fast. If still, try to clear cache and dalvik cache in recovery.

@millerkai Disable Sync in browser settings. Then reboot once to make sure it stops immediately.

Sorry for the slight necro.
I am having this wake lock frequently myself, doesn't seem to take a huge hit on the battery but does keep phone from deep sleep.
I looked all over the settings in browser app, couldn't find sync, can anybody assist in location.

Bump
Nobody else has any of these wake locks?

OOS 4.5.5 nearly never in Deep Sleep

Hi, I did not use my phone for the last few hours and it was in Airplane mode.
My battery still decreased and BetterBatteryStats says, that the phone was nearly always awake with screen off. Deep Sleep was only used 2% of the time?
Does anyone have an idea why?

no... but you are not the only one with this issue..
if you clear cache ou you recovery you will get this issue fixed for a day or two. but them it comes back again

To have an idea, we'd need to know about your setup (or have your phone) since a lot of us don't have that problem. It sounds like a rogue app that you could nail down by enabling true battery stats and wakelocks on GSAM. (Sorry I know little about BBS). Check out a thread I started here that worked for most to enable full battery stats without root: https://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/gsam-nougat-how-to-grant-permissions-to-t3528453
Then check battery usage after a few hours and upload a snap of it here. Also check kernel wakelocks and do the same from GSAM. (If you feel like going this path, of course).

I'm seeing the same on OP5/4.5.5;

}
this shows the GSAM "app sucker", which indicates that after 1.5hours of light use, the Kernel keeps it awake for 59 minutes.
A while before that, I took a screenshot using BBS (xda edition) which shows lots of "awake, but screen off" activity
It all looks like this in the regular battery graph which clearly shows too much "Awake"
Picture 1 suggests this is the kernel so I'm having a hard time troubleshooting. I did clear cache from recovery, but that didn't help

I had the same problem as well, but uninstalling Facebook and Messenger made a huge different in the awake time when the screen was off.

I understand facebook is powerhungry, but this is more than just that. This is something gone rogue. The fact that the kernel consumes it makes it harder to track. Otherwise, "facebook" would be listed on top.

From your first (GSAM) screen, could you show from the pulldown there "Kernel Wake Locks"? Thanks either way.
Almost all userspace apps cause the kernel to spin (since it's what does much of the work), so it'd be nice to figure out which wakelocks are being spun out. Sometimes wakelocks are called for and never picked up as well.
Here's the shots I'm asking for from mine (keep in mine that mine is currently at 21+ hours of usage so my held awake times are OK):

Seems pretty clear that it's an app out of control wakelock wise. I don't think GSAM allows you to break the combined non kernel app wakelocks down further, but BBS..
BBS should let you break those down and give you a better idea which app is causing it. If not, you could try force-closing whatsapp and whatever else is usually running on your phone, resetting the statistics and and seeing what accumulates.

I too face the same issue. Hibernated all apps, turned on battery saver, turned on airplan mode but still battery is draining like hell. I saw it got drained to 6-7% when i woke up in morning.

How'd you hibernate all apps without having root? Just curious. That sounds like something you could only do from TB with root in Nougat.
Anyway: If you're certain you've got every app frozen, then only drastic measures are left like "reset". If you've already tried that, then only more drastic measures remain as in reinstalling all basic firmware.

I suppose if you can manage to give BBS more permissions then it's "possible". I don't use BBS so don't know if that's a doable thing. I would give it a try. I just googled how to break down the wakelocks using BBS and there's several pieces about it but they all involve root. I just think it's possible since I found the GSAM way to do root-type stats without being rooted.

I still don't have it unless it's the reboot "extended/advanced" one where it allows a multi-tier reboot (recovery, bootloader or system).

Not necessarily, since a lot of processes facebook uses are tied into system processes. It's worth a shot, I mean I replaced it with a third party app and my awake time went down significantly.

Google Maps 6 gets killed running in background

Hi guys, is anyone here still using Google maps v6?
It is still working fine, except that on this phone (s10+ Exynos) the app gets killed when running in the background.
At first i believed it to be because i had added the app to the sleep list. I had done that because the system keeps saying the app is eating up battery, even when not running.
So I removed the app from the sleep list, but it keeps getting killed.
How can i make sure that an app never gets killed when running in the background?

Try this go into settings and search optimize battery usage, and then press optimize battery usage listed. You have the options to see what is not optimize battery usage or all click all on top left and see If maps is toggled on. If so toggle off.

I have those settings now, and removed the app from the sleeping apps (again). I'm afraid the system will put it back on the 'sleep' list again because it uses a lot of battery in the background (I get regular warnings about that).
Anyone have an idea why this app would be so active while not even used?

I have the same settings as you have.
What happens is that i get warnings about the old apps eating battery. I guess i then put it to sleep without noticing.
I restarted my phone, did NOT start mapsD, but its still doing something on the background.

It's v6 of Google Maps. It had a much simpler interface, and easier to use when looking for alternative routes.
And it doesn't have all that commercial baggage of the new version, which is way slower too btw.
The only thing is, why does it use battery when not even started....

Being it's an old version I would think you downloaded it from the net and not the play store. Maybe it has hidden spyware etc?

Battery draining apps?

Hi all,
Like all of you i am conscious of my battery on the S10+.
Considering it is a 4,100mah battery you would think it would last a minimum a day and a half however with me i only get a days use out of the phone (by merely doing some browsing, youtube and whatsapping, nothing intensive). I've noticed that even if i use the phone considerable less in one day vs a heavy intensive day, i still get the same usage - around 24 hours.
I have turned off AOD, Location, have Sync on, FHD display.
In theory if im not using my phone, my phones battery should be depleting very slowly however this does not seem to be the case.
So to me it looks like something is draining my phone (i've had the S7, S9, with the same problem). I've reset my phone, not restored a back up and still the problem persists.
Looking at my battery usage recently i have seen Google maps being the highest used app (however i have location off and don't use the app and even have forced closed it).
Has anyone else noticed this? anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks for this - I have been following this thread quite closely but the reason why i made this separate thread is because i believe after all my personal testing it seems to be app related - Im thinking specific to google apps with all their background services.
Just thought if anyone had isolated this like me and if they had any fixes for this.

Wow that is actually amazing results - which google apps have you disabled and how (i.e. just uninstalled them?).
Also the only google app i only would like to keep is google maps - as i use this when driving here and there.
Last question - you basically have 10hours SoT over 2 days. If you used your phone less, do you believe your phone battery life would extend to 3/4 days even?

Galaxy S10 plus Exynos - Battery life a joke?

Hi!
I´ve followed some threads on Reddit on this aswell and thought I´d ask on XDA too.
My brand new, 2 day old Galaxy S10 plus is barely making 3 hours of Screen on time.
As seen on my screenshot, is it on 2 hours and my phone is at 45 %
My usage: Web browsing, emails, Spotify, snapchat
I mostly use wifi, but had 2-3 hours today on 4G but mostly my phone was in my pocket there.
What should I do about this? Im sooo afraid that its a defective unit, but it warms my heart (for better or worse) to see that many other Exynos users are complaining about poor battery life.
I already did factory reset + Clear cache partition. I only installed the necessary apps and set it to kill apps that I do not use within a day, so pretty aggresivley
I have AOD off, and every other "smart feature" for the battery ticked. Im running Medium power saving, so CPU is locked at 70%
**Edit
I read that some people see this when pulling backups. The only thing I moved from my Pixel 3 XL was/is:
Pictures, Text messages, contacts, call history
No apps.
Do you guys have any tips? I posted my screenshot of my usage on this thread. Any tips would be awesome. I love the phone, but thinking about turning it in due to this.
Samsung support wanted me to send it for repair... Which makes no sense cause they were just like "Yep send it to repair we´ll look at it you´ll have it back in 3 weeks"
Thanks!

My Exynos was also bad in the beginning. After a week it got better while learning my usage patterns. Now I get at least 36 hours on one charge with an average of 4 hours sot. It's not the best, but for how I use the phone it's acceptable. In the battery section there is a space where you can select learn usage pattern

Remove digital wellbeing.... Don't know what it does but people say battery life improved.
Put most apps to sleep and restrict background data, except Google, Gmail, Calendar, Assistant. Bixby.
That's basically what I've done.

Does restrict background Activity means the option of allow back ground activity for every application or something else?

If you go to settings/apps each app can be individually placed into not using background data and background activity.
Just dont restrict apps that need to be continually using background data and activities.
