Aware of the current discussion around the LTE drain issues with the Exynos version of the phone. Yesterday I did a full 24 hours off charge on exclusively mobile data and lost around 65% for 80 minutes SOT.
Before taking it back to Samsung I wanted to confirm that there wasn't anything else causing the drain . I'm no expert with battery historian but I can't highlight the causes beyond the following:
Screen off uptime: 3hrs 27 mins
Kernel Wakelocks: 5hrs 32 mins
CPU Usage: 2:32 of user time vs 5:14 of 'system time'
Kernel Overhead 1:45
"999:MAILBOX_CP2AP" - I suspect this is linked to outlook but can't be sure, causing 150 wakelocks an hour
"Abort:Some devices failed to suspend, or early wake event detected" - No idea what this is
Would anyone be able to provide any more information or assistance in analysing the chart?
Thanks in advance
Try to change outlook. My experience is that outlook was making battery drain crazy, remove it and got other phone.

Have you tried these tests from a fresh install with no other apps installed? Have you tried this in airplane mode also.?
What was the test results using just wifi?

Haven't and wont have an opportunity to do a fresh install for a while, need to do a day on wifi to compare the results.
I did spend a bit of time on wifi and adaptive power saving and it all but wiped out the "999" wakelock (I think this is because the system more aggressively bins the wakelocks "
Will also try safe mode/ removing outlook to see what happens
I'm having the exactly same issue of yours! 999:MAILBOX_CP2AP is appearing crazily! Do you found any solution yet? My phone don't have outlook installed, but the wakelock still going on crazily.. It seems only appearing actively during mobile data is turned on.
My battery has been doing great for me using LTE all day

What outlook are you using? Is this the outlook from the play store or is it corporate setup outlook mail using some sort of exchange servers for synching?
I have since my note 9 disabled the stock Samsung email app and use only outlook. Since the stock email app for me was causing drain.

I deleted outlook and the wakelock persisted, so it's not that, but I don't have another mail app so very confused.
The 999:mailbox wakelock still appears when on wifi but its negligible compared to when on LTE

Googling that process didnt yield much success.

Unfortunately GSam and better battery stats currently don't work on exynos, I have accubattery but it doesn't offer much beyond basic battery stats

Hmm I tried safe mode, even hard reset OS by sending to service center for them to do that for me, still same.
Although my battery life doesn't consider that awful but not satisfying. I started to doubt whether it's some hardware related issue.

And the wakelock persisted throughout? It might be nothing but the only difference I can see between wifi vs LTE

Did you play around with your settings?

After a week of research I figured out what was draining my battery. It's a system process related to Google backup. So, here's the tip:
* in Settings->Privacy disable "Backup my data"
* restart the phone - yes, you have to, otherwise the process will continue running
* enjoy!
Before disabling the backup service I used to get no more then 12-14h on a charge. After disabling the service I get 48h.
This service seems to be a problem with Samsung firmware only, it has no effect on battery use on my Desire HD.
I've tested this on stock XWKF3 (2.3.3) and XWKI4 (2.3.4) firmwares. Let me know if it's been effective for you.
I'm having new, really bad, battery drain... been trying to find the culprit for weeks. I just tried it... ill let you know if it helps.

Looking forward to the reports from the users here..
Your battery lasts 4 times longer after disabling this? Do you expect anyone to believe you? Probably not.
Let me try n get back to u aft a few days
I think he got a point. I am at %67 in 7 hours. I use to spend more than %50 in 7 hours, that is, my battery will be depleted in 21 hours instead of 12-14 hours. Not x4 times but almost twice the battery life I had. I am not using any power savings, stopped green power. Wifi on, 3g on. All battery consuming widgets, e-mail check every 30 minures. Facebook in the background and Skype, and Fring, etc...
Thanx for the tip. ıt really works for me

i also had my batt lived longer when i freezed wifi sharings, im, market updater, accu weather, radio and gmail which i do not use. Believe it or not, i topped 82 hours. My record. Without these i was getting 24 to 30 hours. Without widgets let me say.
82 hours was on 2.3.3. Now with 2.3.4 it is around 72 hours.
My emails are in push for every hour. I use my phone moderate to high by talking, internet over wifi and edge, and my phone is always on edge not 3G or H.
I believe that there are certain ways to increase your battery life. All you need is to find it how.

I'm a believer.... been streaming a2dp bluetooth all morning.. battery 86%...
I wonder what you loose if you do it though??? (calendar entries, contacts etc)
Cause I don't wanna loose my contacts which are up in google servers
I ll try it I guess I get around 13-18hrs depending on usage ( Just copy my contacts to sim card first )
EDIT: Ah I think its ok its just for applications... not related to google account or so I believe
Current state 7hrs 18mins and 68% battery remaining will see how it goes
this isn't so new...
this was told already in the battery saver guide here in forums, nothing stunning like that!

Thanks for the tip,mine has always been checked so i have unchecked it and hopefully battery life will get better.
In the past week or so, I've noticed that my battery is draining unusually fast. I will take the phone to bed with me (I use it as an alarm clock) at 100% battery and I can wake up 7 hours later with it at 82%. When I look at my battery information, I see steady, solid drain over that time, with the biggest offender being Google Services. When I look in Wakelock Detector, I see the most usage (though seemingly not a ton) by Android System.
I found some tips on using Wakelock Terminator in Xposed to filter some things from Google Play Services from triggering wakelock, and I was optimistic, but it didn't seem to help.
Any advice?

Are you on a stock rom? Did you try greenify? It's on the play store. It kills the apps background services and the app itself until you start the app or the app is started by another app or service. Soon as the app os no longer needed it is turn back off. This program does not freeze apps it prevents them from running until needed.
Ah, sorry, I should have mentioned my rom and such. I'm running ForceROM, a relatively older version (maybe 2.3?), since I never felt the need to update.
I haven't tried Greenify. Haven't actually heard of that one before. I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the tip.

Try a custom kernel like KToonsez in addition to Greenify. It's amazing what you can end up doing with that kernel
Sent from my SCH-I545 using Tapatalk
ForceROM includes Ktoonsez kernel. For the last 8 months or so, I've had great battery life. This is a sudden and recent change, which I'm assuming to be caused by an update of some Google app (such as Play Services).
How do I use Greenify? Or do I just install it and it does magic?

Do you have auto-sync enabled? What Google Services do you have enabled for sync? I used to have a similar issue but turning off sync for things I don't use (like newsstand, etc) helped my battery life a lot.

I believe that installing Greenify might have done it. Battery usage looks much better today. I'll do a real test tonight when I get it charged to 100% before bed.
Well, I'll be...
I think that the problem is wifi. When I'm at home, I'm on wifi, and the battery is constantly draining. When I'm not at home, and on mobile data, the battery is well-behaved.
What's up with that?

Some apps can be setup to sync over WiFi only instead of 3G/4G data. but you have to check what apps would be the culprit. I know Google play, dropbox's picture upload feature can be set to download/upload/update over WiFi instead of data. But the only way to know is to see what apps connect over WiFi.
WiFi is suppose to give you better battery life since its signal is usually nearby and your phone doesn't have to use more power to find a better signal like it does with 3g/4g. I know for me it does since there are very few towers in the middle of the dessert.

No, I use Swiftkey.
So, interesting twist to this saga. Leaving wifi off takes away the solid blue bar on the battery screen, but I still see the same level of battery drain (about 18% overnight). Very intriguing.

Sounds like you're losing power to things syncing over wifi. Maybe try just giving it a week and watching it to see if it settles down. Google play sometimes settles down on its own. I also vote to check out greenify. With the donation package you can work wonders at calming down power hungry apps, even system apps.

My situation has suddenly taken a turn for the much worse. I don't know what's going on. I haven't added anything new or changed any settings since installing Greenify a while back. Now, the battery is just tanking. I got up to 100%, ran Battery Calibration and now, about 2.5 hours later, I'm at 82%. Could this just be a problem with the battery itself? Do I need to replace it?

Honestly there are a few days where the battery life suddenly drops dramatically. I've experienced this on unrooted mf9, mk2, and nae. Give it some time and see if battery life comes back up. You can reboot the phone to kill a rouge app that might be the cause.

This is the first I've heard the term MJA, so I don't think I'm on that.
There definitely do seem to be days where battery is worse than others. And I do typically try to reboot when I see it acting too squirrelly. I'll just keep keeping an eye on it. Weird-ass phone...
Hey Everyone,
Can someone please tell me what's draining my battery? I used 32% of battery and didnt even get 2 hours of SOT. I do see that my connection is bad.. (at work right now on the 11th FL). I did turn on airplane mode but it seems like the mobile radio wont turn off? Anyone else facing the same issues?
Currently on stock OOS 4.5.14 Kernel- Simplegx Kernel
I don't know. I'm on stock 4.5.14 and stock kernel. I am getting about 9-12 hours of SOT and .3-.6% idle drain for a combined drain average of about 2.2-4.5% an hour depending on medium to heavy use. I don't do anything to crazy with my setup. I just turn off my google account sync unless i add a contact or something then i manually sync them, turn off background data for each app that has no need for background data usage. Work email is on push and personal email is set to fetch every 3 hours.
Seems you're not alone, my 4G+ isnt' great, never seems to connect in the same places my old phone did, and even when it does its nowhere near as fast.
Data is sub-par compared to other devices, it's that simple i've been through every single setting, nothing can change it.
I don't know ow either. I have my OnePlus 5 since a few weeks ago and so far its battery is showing being the best I've ever used till now (I upgraded from a G4+).
I usually get 7-8 hours of SoT with medium usage:
- WhatsApp
- Phoenix (Facebook/Messenger)
- YouTube
- Some gaming (Free Fire Battlegrounds)
- WiFi + 4G+ (switching between them depending on where I am).
I leave home early on morning with full charge and get back with about 30% left.
About the 4G+, it's showing really good here, nothing to complain about it.

8 hours of SOT is really good. You can try installing Wakelock Detector to get a different perspective. Also, anything that uses accessibility services may harm battery life. Another thing you can do is go to settings-permissions-autolaunch and disable autolaunching of apps that don't need to be running all the time. You can see what apps are currently running in settings - app management. One last thing is that your signal strength isn't that great, so it may just be how it's supposed to be.

I'm in the same boat as you, only I'm running OmniRom. But yeah, had 8h sot, can barely make 6 now, android system is my second biggest drain, with 2+ hours of cpu usage.
I have tried and I have found that 7.1 to 8.1 do not have the best battery life.
I personally have been aopk 6.01 and been getting great battery life.
I did do a stress test I did gaming and blasting next radio 21 minutes use only 6% of battery.

I've tried everything , disabled all apps in auto launch , tried it with airplane mode on , enabled background resource control . Never go past 7 hours max screen on time . My screen brightness is usually very low throughout the day
What are all of these services ? My buddy has none of these
You are running stock I take it.
Different ROMs are going different services like you show.

How do I get rid of these services without root ? And these services also don't show up on my buddy's phone . Is it a le pro 3 thing ?

Turned on battery assistance at about 80% , battery life drastically improved
This is now ridiculous
All eui is in the rom.
I have no problem with custom roms. (Omni,Aicp,Lineageos etc.)

I don't see the big deal you have 3 hours 57 minutes on screen time and 50% battery left you will get almost 8 hour screen time on that is well above average!

Went through a hard 12 hour process , finally unlocked bootloader , installed twrp and running lineage . Going to be testing battery life
I have the same problem with Eui rom. As long as the display is turned on, the system service will exploit the battery. Nobody knows that?
There are no such problems in custom roms.(Aicp,omni vs )

I flashed lineage and I'm experiencing even worse battery , I can't be bothered to flash a new Tom and reinstall all my apps

Flash Magisk and try Greenify4Magisk. It's gotta be some third-party app you're running, or you have a bad cellular connection. Are you getting full signal on your phone? Do you have LTE running as well?

I haven't installed many apps , just the basics like Snapchat WhatsApp Twitter and Instagram . I tried to flash magisk but that would mean uninstalling super su . I normally get around 3-4 bars but I don't use cellular data . I have Greenify but it doesn't seem to be doing much

Recently I started experiencing bad battery drain (13% over night) and I noticed my kernel has been keeping my phone awake. I did a factory reset without restoring a back up and still the same thing.
Can anyone take a look at my screen shot and help me figure out a solution?

Try using CPU spy and check if the drain is due to the phone not going deep sleep ?

It says 99% deepsleep when I ran it. Also I got a notification that this app was made for older android systems. I am assuming it still works correctly?

Yeah it works , try updating to latest firmware as they have improved battery drain , you could turn off AOD , put some apps to sleep in the settings that you don't use and optimize battery usage for them. i was told Mobile Data consumes alot of battery , I'm getting 2% drain for the night unless I leave some downloads.

I am on the latest firmware and I have done everything in the original battery optimization guide by corvo who is now gone. I also have tweaked all my settings for max battery and turned off mobile data. Forgot to mention these issues are with all battery saving tweaks in mind.

Hmmm still says my deepsleep is fine I haven't really been using my phone. I did notice that my CPU does not idle at 300 while screen is on. I am assuming this is normal.
Uh the screenshots bugged I'll reupload.

Strange, guessing you haven't just left the phone untouched for 18 hours!

I have not. I have literally no idea why the phone is acting this way. I also don't know why my battery stats are not working on the app.
Also idk if this information will help my phone is a snap dragon 855 US variant.
I might try another factory reset. Could you give me a safe to disable list? Perhaps I could try just disabling little pieces at a time and see what happens. Maybe I uninstalled an important service or something.
For example I completely removed wellbeing from my device. Idk if it is important etc or had a role in certain services.

Sure, I have the exynos so that might explain why cpu spy works for me.
Google battery historian (there is a good reddit sub that explains how to use it) which might help identify some issues
I've attached my disabled list, just be aware that I have a 3rd party tracking app so I wouldn't recommend removing the find my device unless you have an alternative

Just so you know, CPU Spy and CPU Spy Reloaded don't work correctly on Snapdragi. S10's.
Happened to me using only mobile data also. Gsam showed a higher than average held awake time as well. This current battery cycle has been my worst stat in regards to sot.View attachment 4767231View attachment 4767233

I'm jealous your SOT shows a max of 7hr 30+ min mine can only get to 5 without dying.

I got over 10 hours once , the only time I charged to 100% and used to 15%. Second day of purchase. I normally do 80-40 or there abouts.
But we're her to discuss saving battery and wondering why the LTE isn't as efficient perhaps as would it should be.

I used the command that the app tells me to use. Does gsam work on exynos?
I emailed them two weeks ago, never got a response back.
