Hello everyone I hope I got the right forum
I have a problem with the new system update released
The new update did not help at all to my nexus

A quick look through that thread shows that it is focused on problems relating to Google Services. Since the update, I too am having issues with the battery draining more quickly than it ever did before. However, it appears to be msm_hsic_host wakelock causing the problem. Google services are a very small part of my battery usage.
I have posted a couple times about it in various threads, but I haven't seen a fix that applies to 4.3.
The battery drain is out of hand. I love my N4, but this is a big turn off for me.
I have tried these configurations to make sure it wasn't an oddball app causing the problem -
Stock 4.3 with stock Kernel - no root/stock recovery - Only apps being the ones that load on a factory reset
Wiped all partitions and reloaded stock 4.3/gapps/no root/stock recovery
Stock 4.3/rooted/TWRP/Stock gapps
Stock 4.3/rooted/TWRP/gapps+ a handful of other apps (photobucket/es file explorer/bbs - essentially, my normal config)
Added note - I also have cell broadcasts of all types turned off.
All of the above combinations respond the same way in regard to battery drain overnight. 7-9 hours off the charger/no screen time nets me 25-30% loss of battery from a full charge. msm_hsic shows up in BBS with 1.75 to 2.5 hours of wake time and is the highest power consumer. Putting the phone in flight mode reduces power consumption to ~2% over the same 7-9 hour timeframe. Just turning wifi off doesn't change anything.
Ideas anyone?

As far as I know, this wakelock is caused because of the usage of 3G, like browsing, syncing, or any other thing that consumes data. This drain for me is usually between 10%-15%. There is no way t completely get rid of it, because it is part of the Android system.
There are many kernels that tried to fix this, about stock image and JW branch I don´t know, but maybe you should try to install an AOSP variant, because AOSP has many bugs fixed.
Also I remember I read somewhere that also bad radio could be causing this kind of issues, so try to get latest radio/bootloader for 4.3.
Hope it helps.

To avoid having loose ends out there (in case anyone finds this thread during a search) - The problem turned out to be the latest radio. Not my lack of it :lol:
After flashing back to the .48 radio, from the .84 radio - everything is back to normal. No more weird Android OS wakelocks. ~3-4% battery drain overnight instead of 20-30%
There are more and more people popping up on XDA with this problem. So far, all of them that I have seen are outside the US. A few have even discovered the same fix.
So - future person that finds this thread during a search, look into the possibility of flashing back to version .48 of the radio. Hopefully this saves someone the trouble of experimenting with a bunch of different ROMs and kernels.

hi guys first of all i apologize for this post not having detailed info such as ss from BBS,GSAM and WLD and will post them later !!
and as always i guess with most battery related problems it happened suddenly and i really mean suddenly the day before yesterday everything was perfectly fine and i didn't have that ridiculous battery drain !!
i woke up yesterday only to find out that Android OS is taking more than 50% of battery usage with a drain like 20% over night
restarted many times and by the end of the day i installed GSAM and WLD (wakelock detector)
froze most of apps including the ones i installed recently but i didn't install that battery hog apps (nothing unusual) and also they didn't appear in partial wakelocks section of BBS
btw i don't use any fake battery extender tools or memory boosters it's just Greenify
i observed that sometimes when i unlock my device (i use knock code btw if that matter!!) wifi gets disconnected and reconnect again (wifi icon disappear and re-appear again in 3 secs or so)
i'll upload ss in a couple of mins
thank you
Edit: SS Added
and notice how it drained 5% in just 40 mins (20 mins SOT) !!!

yea almost identical problem
i did tot reinstall and see how things go !!
sadly nothing changed and wifi still eats huge amount of battery idk how did this happen
well i'll update thread if anything changed
peace out guys
I had the same problem with battery drain(although not as severe) along with huge data consumption when using a significantly modified(i.e. heavy debloat and ota disabled) rooted stock rom. I tried a few customs roms and dorimanx kernel(not at the same time), and even though battery drain wasn't as bad, they were are waaaay to buggy to be used everyday(especially the dorimanx kernel, it's really bad).
Just last week I tot back to KK and ota updated to the latest LP rom(lost root unfortunately). Then I uninstalled/disabled every app I could/needed. Everything is very fast, smooth, and stable again. I now lose 1-2% every 8hrs in standby with syncing and wifi/data enabled, bluetooth and nfc disabled. I regularly get 5-6hrs sot over 48hrs with moderate use and brightness on auto.
I do have a new battery though - my old one( came with my "refurbished" phone from freedompop) gave me 2-3hrs of sot - but that was when I first got it and before I started modifying anything.

How is dorimanx kernel bad? How many user downloads he has,lots and lots then are we thousands of user wrong using a bad kernel, come on . Maybe it didnt work for you. But out of those thousands of users cant be wrong. If it was that bad no one would download. Just saying , you should just say it didnt work for you.

Can you tell us what app have you uninstalled and disable ?
What have you debloat ?
Thank you very much
My G2 (vs980) has also been suffering from a sudden battery drain. Android OS and Android System seem to be the problem. They are now second and third on the list of battery usage, after the screen. Before now, they were never that high on the list. I noticed this last weekend, when I kdz to the latest update for the vs980, which is 3AA. After noticing this, I flashed the xceed kernel, then cloudy with dorimanx kernel, and the battery drain continued. I even kdz back to kitkat, still the same, then I flashed AICP 11, and still the same battery drain by Android OS and system. Finally, I restored a backup of stock lollipop 39A but, the issue continued so I turned on airplane mode and it seems to help a bit. I still notice battery life isn't the same as before. The os and system still drain more than usual even on airplane mode.
Kind of glad to hear I'm not the only one with this issue. I don't think I need a new battery, since I bought the phone new in April 2015 from Bestbuy.
Also Gsam, shows the temperature of phone between 80°-90°F, where before it would be in the low to mid 70s. One time, it even got up to 104°F, funny thing is, it doesn't even feel that hot in my hand.
Hopefully, we can find out what's causing this because I really liked the battery life on this phone. Even when people complained about the battery life being worse on 5.0.2, I was pretty happy with it. All my previous phones can't compare to the g2. Now I feel like upgrading though lol.

When I tried the version that was out a month or two ago it wasn't nearly as smooth as stock, even after conservatively messing with the kernel app settings. The worst was that it also cut out tethering and my flashlight when the screen shut off. Maybe the recent updates have fixed some of the issues, but I doubt it. Could be that he doesn't have access to the sprint variant which I have...
Either way, just because 'thousands' of people use it doesn't necessarily mean that it's good - 99.9% of those users have no idea how to code or how a kernel is written. Their knowledge goes as far as following picture guides online - which a 5 years old could do. Just look at the most recent change log - those 'fixes' were to glaringly huge problems that shouldn't have been made in the first place and people were blissfully using it the whole time. Think about how many thousands of other bugs their must be. Not to mention hacking up code made by professionals at huge companies could lead to many other problems. Obliviously the stock kernel has bugs as well, but it works and is fast and stable so I see no need for using a hacked together kernel made by one amateur that doesn't even have my version of the phone to test it on. I wanted it to be good - which Is why I went to the trouble of installing it, but it's definitely NOT.

I uninstalled ALL of the stock apps that can be uninstalled. The ones I disabled are aosp keyboard, app updates, browser, calendar, cloud print, favorite contact widget, google play books, games, movies & tv, newstand, google+, lg voice command speech pack, music, music(the widget - it always runs in the background even without being on the homescreen), notebook, polaris viewer, quicktranslator, swype, talkback, voice command. I would have liked to disable a few more but I'm not rooted so I couldn't.
I use nearly all of the google products like chrome,gmail, calendar, docs, keep, music, photos, news and weather,translate,etc...so having the stock lg ones enabled was redundant. I also only have the bare minimum of installed apps that I need. Nearly all of them are made my major corporations i.e Chase, BofA, ebay, paypal, freedompop, microsoft, swiftkey etc. I have NO games or any small apps that need a ton of permissions. The only small apps are feedly, print hammermill, privacy flashlight(240kb, no ads, no permissions) and bubble level(180kb, no ads, no permissions).
I also go through every settings in every app to make sure it's what I want. And I restart my phone every time I take it off the charger. IMO having a clean and no frills system that is set correctly is the key to performance and battery life.
I just want want to clarify that I average 4-5hrs per 1% in standby since it doesn't seem to hold as well as it gets closer to 0%.
theres this app that have lots of info on battery..
thx guys for adding your experience
i hoped moded kernels would've reduced that amount as they should have necessary drivers for wifi which was somehow got messed up but from your reply i guess i've to look somewhere else
idk how to put this, well this isn't a solution at all i actually didn't start working on it yet just thought to share what i found so far !!
so it's just a reference for any one whose luck was bad enough to have a wakelock like that !
1st of all in most cases neither the device nor it's battery are at fault *you need to understand that*
faulty battery doesn't show up kernel related wakelocks instead they drain without a reason so i hope ppl stop accusing battery in every battery drain thread!
2nd after understanding that you'll have to deal with the environment your phone is used in
to put it simple it's your router and all devices in your current network !! (idk though why not all devices get affected by that or why it just started now, tough luck yea)
those threads may help

what i'll try to do is add an old access point to my router and connect my phone to it as i don't have a replacement router right now!!
i'll let you know if things were improved !
hey guys
i thought to share what i did so far and before i go on there is a bad news and a good news !!
i would start with the bad news first !
-no rom could solve this issue so you don't really need to format everything and start from scratch especially if you didn't mess around too much and you found it started suddenly like here, i've tried couple of roms including latest CM13 build it wasn't that bad but it didn't solve the drain that much either !!
-now some ppl may see this bad and some may don't care (which means good!!) google services are the ones responsible for this drain
well man you didn't come up with anything new and i see you've got a problem getting straight to the point besides you talk too much
i'm sorry
now you have to sacrifice your google services background sync including "GCM" if you are using any services similar to pushbullet or notification mirroring you'd understand why it's important
anyway if you are good with that you may install and yea it works with latest google play services
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.playfulgeeks.gservicefix
and do as instructions (and believe it'll work if you did steps right)
if you prefer manual way then you'll need "app ops xposed module" and deactivate every "wake up" permission from google services
this guide may help but remember we don't have tools natively in our roms so don't bother downloading "shortcut maker" and go through your settings app to find "privacy guard" or "app ops" we don't have those natively like them
http://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-one/general/guide-google-play-services-battery-t2832525
i'll share some ss from stock battery stats
i'm sorry for my long post and i hope it'll help someone with same issue
idk if it solved issue completely but things are stabilized a lot now and i just lost 1% over night not 20% or 30% like before !!
and i'm using lollipop now so i guess it's not that bad for what i heard about bad lollipop battery since it's my first time trying it !!
and btw real SOT should be +40 mins so the real SOT is 2H-47M cuz i restarted my phone to apply that fix and for some reason battery stats doesn't stick between reboots !!
if anyone interested in trying that rom it's for D800 only btw and thx to @Swetnes for his work rom feels pretty stable and solid :good:

good luck everyone
I've tried using @MrColdbirds unofficial CM13. I'm still not allowed to post to the relevant forum so please bear with...
Whilst great respect is due for his work on this, I'm getting absolute garbage battery stats. I've flashed all of the required files, the updated firmware etc and have seen the battery prediction, even when not using the phone, decrease by roughly 100% compared to standard cos 12.1.
Many others claim fantastic battery life on the CM 13 and I'm wondering if anyone else has similar findings?
Of note was the fact that WiFi was way higher on the battery usage than anything else, like the WiFi wouldn't sleep even when phone sleeping.
I can't find anything obviously wrong as all settings were as per cos12.1 as far as WiFi sleep settings etc are concerned.
Anyone had similar, suggestions as to what I'm doing to get half battery life I'm used to?
I have marvelous battery life with the ROM, so I would assume it's some app that has a WiFi lock enabled that keeps the thing running. Could you post a wakelock detector log and maybe list your installed apps?
It seems to have settled down now. The screen on time also showed as 0% regardless of how long it had been used. Battery prediction now gone up to 1 day 1_23 hours as per cos ROM and deep sleep now fine.
Whatever had caused it may have been solved, a reflash was done.
Should it return I'll post a wakelock log but as of now thanks for your help but it has settled down for now.
Keep up this amazing work, many thanks.
Just realised the reflash was to latest build and as per your release notes I didn't flash the fingerprint reader packages. Without anything else changing I'd suspect my issues were around the fingerprint reader as others have also mentioned WiFi issues when the fingerprint reader package is installed.
Whatever, the latest setup running smooth and battery back to longevity.
I use unofficial and have a long battery life.
Recently ( Since the marshmallow update) I've been getting just absolutely horrendous battery life. I'm talking around 6 hours. Which is just unreal! I've had the phone for about a year and half and I find this ridiculous. Going through the settings/battery panel it says bluetooth has been taking up ~50% of the battery but that makes no sense since it did not do such before the update.
This is just so frustrating because it's such a great phone. Maybe I just need to replace the battery but who knows. Any insight would be absolutely amazing!
It seems to me that several apps can be the cause of this issue (bluesleep wake lock). I experience it since I updated my Note4 to DBT 6.0.1 PDA N910FXXS1DPG1, CSC N910FOXA1DPE1, Phone N910FXXU1DPB1. I disabled almost every app that has Bluetooth access, still bluetooth hinders the phone from deep sleep. Very annoying since I also wiped completely and reinstalled the image. Only solution so far is to disable BT. Will roll back to DPE6 or DPE1 soon, but am concerned because of missing security updates in that case (rooted).
See also this N6 thread.
So I reinstalled DPE6 and experience the issue right after booting and installing TWRP/SuperSU, with only Better Battery Stats installed. Could it be hardware related? I remember having this issue for the first time a week ago or so, without any new app being installed or other change made to the system.
