WiFi scanning is a battery drainer on all phones I've noticed it's the first thing I disable on a new device

Same.
It annoys me though when I activate high accuracy mode and it enables it back on. I normally just have device/GPS only, which suffices for Google maps etc. but some apps require it

I'd also recommend trying changing network mode to LTE/WCDMA, via the *#*#4636#*#* menu, if facing any cell standby drain. Doing so has quite literally doubled my battery life!

What is this option ?
It's for use only 4G and never 3G ?

As I understand, it makes the device cycle between just 3g and 4g, whereas the default setting it cycles through other frequencies perhaps.
Whatever it does, by changing the setting I have no more cell standby drain and battery life;SOT has easily doubled.. Seriously!

It unfortunately does revert back to default upon a reboot, so likely will with the scheduled power on/off.
Let us know though!

Gray Wifi Icon with JuiceDefender/GreenPower

Hi, everyone. For those of you NS owners running ICS 4.0.3 and use JuiceDefender or GreenPower to manage your Wifi, after unlocking or turning on your screen and then connecting to Wifi, do you get an all gray Wifi icon on the notification bar, even though you're getting good signal?
Here's what mines look like, and I'm not sure if this is an app or ICS 4.0.3 issue:

It only shows up like normal (with blue bars) if I turn off and turn on back right away my screen.
So, nobody uses JuiceDefender or GreenPower on their NS?
I actually use Juice Defender as well, however when I have good signal (using WiFi) it turns blue as it should.
I am using Stock 4.0.3 w/ BrainMaster's tweaks.
I use AOKP has a built in "Juice Defender"

I'm having the same exact problem, but I'm on the LTE Galaxy Nexus.
I'm having exactly same problem.
When I turn on "power saver mode"(it's AOKP stock JD control) it shows always grey signal after turn oh the screen, even though signal's fine.
Anyway, it's not so anoying for me. :-D

Well, my NS is on Brainmaster's Stock ICS ROM. So, I suppose this is an ICS issue, and power saving apps have nothing to do with it.
What's the best way to let Google know about this bug?

I don't use Juice Defender and I don't have that issue. I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say your problem actually is Juice Defender. The gray icon means you are not synced with Google's servers. Since Juice Defender turns off sync/mobile data as one of it's features logic says its the app that's the problem

If that was the case, it would show the connectivity bars and be gray. As seen in his screenshot, it's not even showing signal strength. And if we weren't connecting to the google servers, we would be experiencing other problems.
I don't think it's an ICS issue either, it happened on my Droid Bionic on 2.3 as well.
Yup, I just installed Juice Defender on my Galaxy Nexus (used it on my Nexus One) and noticed the grey wifi signal just like your screen shot. Happens after I unlock the device.
Old thread I know, but I've got the same issue on galaxy note running custom ics rom . O ly happens when jd is set to manage wifi. I turn wifi management off inside jd and my wifi signal notification is back to normal
Confirming problem on Galaxy S3.
Again I know this is an old thread but I thought it was appropriate just to confirm this bug on the galaxy S3. Don't know of a fix though.
I still have the same bug with Green Power

I was hoping that this issue will be resolved in the official ICS 4.0.4 update, but my NS still has this gray Wi-Fi icon bug with both JuiceDefender and GreenPower.
Bug on S3
I can confirm this bug not only while usng JD, and Green Power, but also using Better WiFi.
This might be caused by some permission isue with ICS. And not necesarilly with JD.
I will install JD on jelly bean, and see if the bug is still there.
Bug on S3 too
Hi !
I've got a galaxy S3 with JuiceDefender, and I've got exactly the same problem too...
Same bug still exists in stock Jelly Bean.

what option you have selected in settings? Always or Never? Its was change in ICS and it works different than 2.3 GB...
The setting is actually asking you when you want to leave wifi on when screen turns off.
Always. will leave wifi on and
Never. will turn it off when screen turns off.
Mine works fine.
In settings select "Never (increases data usage)", something like that, mine is Portuguese...

Mine works too, just go to Wi-Fi's Advance menu and change the Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep setting, then it will never turn off
I'm not sure that WIFI is off or not.
But while updating apps in Google Play and then screen off, when phone waked, Google Play was just hang and stop updating.
May be just a bug of Play but I rather think it's a problem of stock rom.
With firmware V10d and earlier my phone had the same problem but it's gone since update to V10f.

Disabling FastDormancy?

How do you do it on Atrix HD?
I ask because FastDormancy is killing me!

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",

}
This is for a phone that is not at all used! 4% an hour for a phone that isn't used is a lot, especially given FastDormancy is keeping the phone awake for 1 hour 7 minutes out of 2 hours 57 minutes, a whopping 38%!
Clearly my carrier doesn't support FastDormancy or it wouldn't take so long to send the disconnect messages!
The worrying part is that I have even changed the radio to GSM Auto (PRL) in an attempt to reduce battery life as the phone constantly tries to get the best 3G signal possible which is anyway sketchy in my house.
Help appreciated. Thanks.

If you're rooted, get Titanium backup pro and freeze "orientation notifier", "modem fast dormancy...", and "modemstatservice". Under battery, these were labelled as "wakelock" and used about 25% of my battery.

Do all three need to be disabled or freezing just "modem fastdormancy service" is enough? What does "orientation notifier" do anyway? I thought it was to do with screen orientation.
Those three fall under wakelocks, hence all three being disabled did the trick for me!

Well I have only disabled "modem fastdormancy" and it has done the trick for me. Why disable more, especially when you don't know what those two do!
What exactly do you mean by "fall under wakelocks"? Using which app? BetterBatteryStats only showed me modemfastdormancyservice doing a partial wakelock and keeping the phone awake.

Under Settings>Battery..........you know, without some fancy app
I disabled them because they ALL caused wakelock. You can do what you want, but like you said "modemfastdormancyservice doing a partial wakelock" I didn't risk it with the others. Disabled all of them and not a single problem

Okay, so far I have never seen anything like "wakelock" being displayed in Settings>Battery.
And, before you disabled, did you find out what those other two did? fastdormancyservice is self-explanatory but google search doesn't bring up much in terms of results for the other two. Why take a risk? But you say everything works fine? LTE, HSPA+, HSPA, EDGE, etc. and the networks seemlessly switch when you go to an area with weak LTE/3G signal?

I'm using it unlocked on T-Mobile....get HSPA+ speeds fine. 10mbps down and 2 up, goes to E, wifi. You can always try it and defrost it if it cause you problems. It's not like we're telling you to delete something, so I'm not understanding this RISK you speak of.......

Risk as in if it suddenly doesn't boot anymore, etc. Has happened once for me so I'm very, very cautious. Especially since I do not have a recovery installed to create a nandroid backup. Anyway, I haven't seen the "wakelock" option showing up on my settings>battery screen till now. If it does, maybe I will try freezing the other two you have mentioned as well.
At least as far as I can tell, freezing the fastdormancyservice alone seems to let the phone sleep without any problems and the other two services you have mentioned certainly aren't running. Maybe the fastdormancyservice is required for the other two to work and with this frozen, they shut down as well I don't know.
also can try going into your build.prop and changing this line:
ro.mot.ds.fastdormancy.disable=false
to
ro.mot.ds.fastdormancy.disable=true

What does that parameter refer to? Should that be changed as well? My instinct says it should left as false since they did not want FD to be active during a call but I wanted to confirm just in case.

Wakelock on stock 4.4.4

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to post an update regarding the battery issue. As suggested I have downloaded the fast dormancy app and disabled it.
Seems like it has affected the battery life. Although I am still having wakelocks, the battery life doesn't seem to be that bad.
Still no sure why I am having wakelocks even when the screen was turned offu. Didn't use to have this on stock 4.4.4.
Can somebody help to figure out which particular app was behind these wakelocks?

The speaker problems could be a kernel issue, try flashing AGNi. I'm not sure why your battery stats are saying that you have Wi-Fi on 100% of the time despite having turned off Wi-Fi in sleep mode. You could try installing Greenify and greenifying Facebook and Facebook Messenger since it looks like those are what keep waking up your phone. Doing that will stop you from receiving FB messages while your phone is asleep though.

Just wanted to post an update regarding volume and wake lock issue.
The volume issue was related to hardware which I got solved. It had nothing to do with Android 4.4.4.
I have been using agni kernel for stock for a while now.. Still seem to get some wakelocks..I guess that's partly because of my network operator's 3G network.. I can be wrong! Not sure..

Some stuffs to check:
- In WIFI advanced settings, do you have "Always allow scanning" enabled ? If yes, try disable it.
- What is your GPS accuracy setting set to? GPS, Wifi or Networks? Try setting it to GPS only or try disable it...
- If you use AGNi, do you have Touch Wake enabled in "Kernel features" section ? If yes, try disable it.
I have ONE quick question. Are you using Google Now ?

Question Bluetooth Battery Drain

Do a Google search if you don't know how for that make/model.
Network reset is generally found in setting under connectivity at least on Samsung's.

Do a Google search if you don't know how for that make/model.
Network reset is generally found in setting under connectivity at least on Samsung's.

Hopefully it's in here somewhere lol
I don't think Karma Firewall's logging feature works in Android 10 or 11.
That would allow you to see what is accessing the internet and how often. Might give you a clue to what app is responsible.
It may be an app connected with the watch that's gone wild. Google Play Services is a known troublemaker and battery hog.
Man it's somehow getting worse ...
Why is app usage so high?
It's not broke down by app. Wonderful.
More Android 10/11 security?
Try disabling Google Play Services... just a hunch.
If that doesn't work...
Go to Developer options>running processes/cache processes after a reboot and see if you can spot it.

That is a mess. Ditch the trash social apps especially FB and insta****. Health is doing what? Is DeX just hanging out too?
All that message stuff?
G Board?
Which of these has bluetooth permissions?
Time to take out the trash... if you can bare to part with it. It all adds up.
The Adroid system looks high too.
Disable all power management after you take out the trash. Power management can cause erratic behavior and battery drain.
This what my 10+ battery profile looks like. I was using bt for a couple hours but it's bare bones.
The bells and whistles are power sucking and annoying.

Have you tried turning off nearby device scanning (under connections) and Bluetooth scanning (under improve accuracy in location)?
Also are you able to see if anything is draining your watch faster than it was before?

Health is the app used to connect to the watch. G BOARD is the Google keyboard ? Use that all the time (same as IG and FB unfortunately)

Yeah they are off already. The watch itself seems fine though

That should be ok then.
Google apks are notorious troublemakers though. Even Gmail I keep on a short leash.
Maybe the data in Health got corrupted, try clearing data or reloading it.
Don't forget all the Google apps and their many dependencies. One might be polling constantly and going unanswered*.
Tracking something like that down on a unrooted Android 10 or 11 platform is a bloody nightmare.
*I simply disabled Google Play Services expect when I need it because this.

If you disconnect the watch does the drain stop? Does the drain continue if you connect a different device? Might be easier to try resetting the watch before the phone?

Will disconnect the watch tomorrow when I wake and see.
It's been ok today. Only at 2% for the day
(Google Play services however showing as my second most used app )

You can disable GplayS in settings to see what happens. Mine is disabled right now.
You can also download Karma Firewall then firewall block GplayS, Google backup Transport and Android Services if those latter two aren't used by you. See if this helps.
