Battery Problem - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

MY samsung note GT-N7000 shows discharging and heating during the use , is there any solution plz help me

The newest Google Play Services are the reason. They take 98,2% from the battery of my Note.
Where can we download an older version, which doesn't do that?
Thanks

I solved my problem by flashing the latest stock rom (4.1.2) I could find for my Note using Mobile Odin.
Before that I was stuck on Android 4.0.3. Build in update service newer worked for some reason.
Now the google services battery usage is back to normal (2-6-%) for me.
I thought it could be of interest for someone here.
Only thing I miss after flashing is the clock screensaver when I place the phone in the charging dock.
Thanks for listening

[Q] Galaxy note huge battery consumption

Hello Everybody.
recently I noticed that My Galaxy Note eats very much battery even in sleep mode.
from 12 at night till 8 at morning it eats 30 percent battery.
I install a clean version of N7000JPLA1 middle east version and factory reset my phone after flash. it went good.but after I only open samsung apps (samsung apps update itself and samsung accout) it starts eating too much battery again.
What should I do?
anybody else has this problem?
untick the Samsung PUSH from market and firmware update. and if you want more disable autosync. I have noticed that when I had a update for a app from SAMSUNG store it would eat another battery even it was night and phone should have 1% every 1:45-2:45 hours depends of the synchronization, but it was eating 3-5% every hour. hope it helps you

Sorry Can't help.
does anybody have this issue?
There is nothing normal about what is going on.
The very likely reason for sudden increased battery consumption is recently installed apps that have created background services.
Before you go to bed, try this:
task manager>open apps> close all
task manager>ram> clear memory
settings>applications>running services> close all unnecessary services

[Q] [ASK] HElp to find out what causing this battery drain

hi all..
2 weeks ago I finally bought my very first android based HH, GNOTE...currently I'm running on ICS LPF Taiwan unroot, and very love it. one of my concern on this ICS, is the battery drain so much, considering it just sit on my pocket.
i have CPU Spy and BBS Installed, and found that it just Deep Sleep 48% and 200MHz 37 %. Kernel Wakelock is "multipdp" 25% Power Manager Services 21,2% and secril_fd-interface 19.25.
could you please tell me what causing this battery drain so much..?
The best thing that you could do is do a Factory Reset, but with all the bricking problems it's highly discouraged. I don't recognise the processes, but you should make sure that you deleted all the apps you never use, since one of then could be causing the problems you have.

After upgrading to German ICS, also had problems with wakelocks (phone never sleeped)
Done this (posted on XDA somewhere) and it worked:
Turn Flight Mode ON
Turn Off the Phone
Take out the battery for 30 secs
Plug battery back
Turn on the phone
Wait until all is loaded and turn off Flight Mode.
Also, always disconnect from the charger with screen ON and unlocked.
After using this 2 metods, never had a wakelock again (multipdp etc)

thanks a lot for both of you....
will try these steps.....and will comeback with the result....

Stop syncing from your gmail account.
The big one is unplugging charger with screen on.

thanks for your answer for my question...
regarding that did you mean that i have to stop receiving email on my Galaxy Note..?? for me that's really important since i bought my note to support my daily job...
is it the main cause..? if yes, i think i should buy another battery as a way out.
I also have encountered the same problem with my galaxy note after the stock ics update in India.
I have checked out the earlier posts on the same issue..
Some users had the problems of deep sleep and some others had other problems..bt as far i have been able to understand this problem...it is associated with those apps which we often use..for eg i had been using apex launcher for so long...and it used to suck my phones battery like hell also coz of the widgets and the other things that it use.
So what i did was a simple factory reset and a data wipe and didn't install the apex launcher again.
I let my phones battery drain completely and charged it till 100% and simply rebooted it and removed the battery too. And its working good now.
Those things which suckedy battery included android system and display...i could do any thing about display but i force stopped may process of android system and results are good.
One more reason for battery drain could be that when we go backs from the apps on stock ics on galaxy note..the apps do not get closed comletely like stock web browser which works in the background too..so might be other reason for so.
Don not install those apps which u dont use often coz they might work in background add unnecessorily suck ur bettery.
Try the battery pull off trick it really works for majority of users.
Force close those apps and processes which u feel unnecessory.
Those whose claim ics doesnt work smooth on their note they pls go the develpers option in settings and enable the force GPU rendering option then it will work smooth like anything...
One more thing which u may already know about galaxy note ics is that now it runs all the tablet apps on ur note! Thats pretty amazing coz u need not root it or do anything...for me it worked with the apps like...adobe idea, adobe photoshop touch and all other adobe apps and some other tablet apps..download these apps directly from 4shared..so cheers!!!
Those who are not happy with their battery pls try factory reset and battery pull off trick...it worked for me and it might work for u too my friend...
if you are entering deep sleep at all then you aren't being affected by the bug where you have to make sure your screen is on and unlocked before pulling it off the charger.
i suffered from this bug after updating to ics lpy, but since following the guide above (flight mode, power down etc.) i've had no issues.
let your phone completely discharge, then turn it back ona dn make sure it turns off again. then fully charge it. i found this increased the accuracy of the battery a little, when i did it it dropped from 10% to 1% in around 20 mins, then i was able to use the phone for almost half an hour on 1% so obviously my battery stats weren't quite right.
if you've done a factory reset, and you're sure the phone is entering deep sleep ok, just go through a couple of complete charge/discharge cycles and see if that improves things

Analyzing is tought on android.
Printscreens of kernel wakelock and partial are better.
Partial is mostly what exactly is keeping awake
Try some of the suggestions from the numerious threads, state them here whicj didnt work and describe usage a little more detail, that way we arent shooting in the dark

i still got this issue regarding multipdp and secril_fd_interface....maybe it caused by unstable network or the fast dormancy stuff...
so i went to nearest samsung center and buy a spare battery... now i have no concern about this...but still keep on eye with l2_hsic...the flight mode on and restart will solve this issue..

I was having battery drain issues myself. Got tired of checking CPU Spy and BBS etc. Worried about bricking and wiping so I...
I rooted the phone.
Installed SpeedMod Kernel 3-3 via mobile odin that didnt really solve it.
I installed Abyss kernel. Wiped everything because its supposed to be a safe wipe kernel.
Then installed Criskelo rom
Then installed SpeedMod Kernel 3-3 again and everything was great with battery life.
You have to reinstall apps and setup your phone basically but its well worth it in my opinion. Now my only battery drain is me always messing with my phone.

I would stay away from telling people this is a safe thing to do in ICS, it's been proven many times it is not.
Maybe you have been lucky - so be thankful you're not using a paperweight...

@gayanaji - I use Criskelo's ROM and all the Samsung apps work fine. No probs here. Many of the custom ROMS are based on other Kernels that the Samsung apps do not work with. I am a bit new to this but I believe that is correct. Just make sure to use a Samsung app compatible Kernel if you decide to do it. Also another piece of advice before doing anything read a bunch to make sure you fully understand everything with regards to rooting, flashing custom ROMS etc.

Fast battery drain

Hey everybody on d XDA Forum. I recently sold my Xperia U for this S3 LTE. I receive uograde to 4.3 but after i upgrade the battery life very bad. I need a way to solve this. If not i go back to xperia u and no more samsung for cause same thing happen to me with galaxy y
I noticed too an higher battery drain since the update... I tried to freeze all samsung bloatware, to block system sync but it's nowhere near the screen time I could get under 4.1.2
See multiple posts and see 4.3 battery post above this one .
It's a problem many people are facing...
Well, this a problem apmost every smartphone user is facing nowadays.While Smartphones have gotten better and faster with the passage of time, the battery lives have gotten worse.
But male sure to turn off Wifi,Bluetooth,GPS,3G/LTE when not using them.
Using apps like Greenify and battery doctor may help improve battery life as well.
I oppened a thread about this battery issue. It seems like this drain is given to samsung blot apps, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2615463
Battery drain caused by different issues different apps installed by different users. Install greenify and wakelock checker and u will know what apps are using or running in the background. For me it was mx player once. Then i reflashed another rom it was facebook and activesync email. So trial amd error urself. Thousands are saying battery is better then 4.1.2 so cant be the rom. Cheers

:good:agreed. Betterbatterystats & wakelock detector can really helps to find the drain problem. Then, use greenify & tasker. Nice combo.
Hey I have it with media server keeping my wife's i9305 awake.
After searching a bit. We found that it was ext SD. We formatted the card and it seemed good for a day. Now its back.
She has the dbt German official 4.3
Anyone having that issue? If not what firmware did you use to get to 4.3

[Q] Battery drain issue

I know there have been a lot of discussions about this but did anyone ever get to the bottom of the battery drain issue on the S3?
When I first got my S3 the battery life was great - would easily last over 12 hours. Now rarely gets me through a working day.
Here's what I have tried (none of these worked)
1. Replacing the battery
2. Replacing the handset completely
3. Replacing the SD card
4. Removing the SD card
5. Using a different SIM
6. Keeping the phone in flight mode when not using it
7. Turning off all automatic updates
8. Keeping screen brightness turned down low
9. Uninstalling all my apps
10. Factory resest (many times)
11. Downgrading back to Android 4.1.2 using these instructions - "Google: How to downgrade Galaxy S3 back to Android 4.1.2: tutorial" (I could not do this I just kept getting error messages)
12. Speaking to EE technical help (totally useless)
13. Speaking to Samsung help (completely clueless)
14. All the other tips on the Samsung website - Google "Cell Phones: How do I sustain my Android battery life?"
15. Turning off "Keep WiFi on during sleep"
Not sure what's left. Any ideas? Here's what I have;
Samsung Galaxy S3 LTE (I9305)
Android version 4.3
Baseband version I9305XXUEMK1
Kernel Version 3.0.31-2051278
Build Number JSS15J.19305XXUEML5
SELinux Status Enforcing SEPF_GT-I9305_4.3_0021
My partner has a HTC One which has a great battery life. Don't think I'd buy another Samsung phone after this. Just wiating till my contract ends so I can switch to an HTC.
Are u on stock or custom rom?

You can't downgrade directly, namely, you can't flash the old bootloader. Try to flash a stable rom, set up your google account, install little or no apps. Give it 48h to settle.
Oh! BTW, format both SDcard and internal storage. And install Better Battery Stats to find the wakelock. And give us a screenshot of your mediocre battery stats, and the screen on time.

I think this problem started for my cell phone after flashing android 4.3.. But I now using custom rom based on cm 11 but battery keeps draining... I get this wake lock msic_pm0_d or something like that...
Use smart radio function in xposed module -gravity box. Then install greenify, greenify all apps.

i had the same problem for a while, the thing i did was buy a new monster micro-usb cable (i think it was this one: http://www.monsterproducts.com/productdisplay.asp?pin=6922&id=10816) and then i let my battery drain to 0% then let the battery battery fully charge to 100%, calibrate the battery (look in play store for: battery calibrate) and then let it drain to 0% again, after that my problem was gone and with the monster cable my phone is fully charged in 1,5 hour, and it lasts a day with heavy use.
Gentlemen, screenshot of battery history and BBS wakelocks please.
No, not greenify.
No, not Wakelock detector.
BBS, with root, as a system app. It's free for your forum users, start using it!

It is funny, BBS is total different app with greenify, why you ask people not to use greenify? BBS has different usage from greenify.

Battery drain solved
Thanks for all the helpful tips. I tried quite a lot of different things.
The thing that ha worked for me to instantly improve my battery life - I'm getting over two days out of it now has been installing "DS Battery Saver".
When I'm not using the phone, the battery life remains pretty much static.
I'd recommend it to anyone looking for a quick fix for rubbish battery life.

Galaxy note 5 battery issue (plus a few others)

I got a galaxy note 5 as a hand me down from my father last year. I had the battery replaced as the original one was at its limit. The replacement was done at the official Samsung service center. My phone (SM920C) is rooted, using the stock rom and has TWRP recovery installed. I will now list the issues I'm currently facing.
-> Idle drain is too high. 3.5% per hour on average, even on battery saver. The device does enter deep sleep.
-> Battery keeps draining while plugged in unless I remove the adapter and plug it in again.
-> TWRP recovery and the main UI show different battery percentages.
-> Battery doesn't charge while in TWRP recovery mode.
-> At points, the phone becomes unresponsive and reboots.
-> The phone also feels really laggy.
-> Also heats up.
I have tried multiple solutions. I tried installing greenify, turned off location, turned off sync, turned off google location history, did a factory reset, installed the rom again, removed root, rooted again, reduced brightness, changed resolution, switched to airplane mode and what not. I have tried everything, but nothing worked. Any and all help will be appreciated.
Since I have less than 10 posts, I cannot post the link to the screenshot.
In addition to what you have already done with settings, I've installed a different ROM from stock. I'm using the N-Fuel-XL3-Final-Stable ROM along with the Fuel kernel (I have the T-Mobile version). Lastly, I installed Naptime from the Play store. Idle drain is very minor and the phone lasts quite a while.

The N-Fuel-XL3 rom is just a debloated version of the stock Note 5 rom? Does it retain all the S-Pen features? Also is S Health and camera working? I did see the thread and the previews for that rom but just wanted to confirm from a user.
Yes, it is a very debloated version of the stock ROM. However, camera works and all Spen features are included. The add-on zip that you flash after flashing the ROM allows you to install Samsung apps. S-Health may be an option, but I can't remember because I don't use it. The ROM is very stable and very fast. If your phone version can accept the fuel kernel (same developer, but different XDA thread), it makes the phone and battery perform even better. These along with Naptime should resolve all of your battery drain issues and help the phone deep sleep.
