Rogue app - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Been getting a lot of idle drain and phone says its awake a lot. How can I isolate which app is doing this?

Betterbatterystats might help, it should show wakelock duration.

This will probably be Google Services... I've been having a ton of wakelock and BetterBatteryStats is saying it's GoogleServices, several hours worth of wakelock... I read somewhere that it was the Calendar sync, but I haven't been able to find any fix for it....

Event log service battery drain

I currently have a problem that "Google services -> event log service" is draining my battery a lot,
I was asking this in another thread about this problem but got told I should ask here in the specific forum for my phone.
I fully charged it during night and at 2:30am I rebooted the phone and unplugged the charger.
Now in the afternoon at 5pm I checked again (haven't used the phone since then) and battery was at 62 %
Wakelock detector is showing an activity of Google-services/Event log service with 1 hour 43 minutes.
Wlan off, 3G on, GPS off, bluetooth etc off.
I disabled all unessesary syncs including google backup/restore, not helping at all.
I checked developer settings for log recording etc.. but everything is off.
It's the international E975 model btw,
I have the same issue. I think i tweaked it too much lol.
Partial wakelocks in BBS indicates EventLogService has been on for 5h.. -_-
Have you done any tweaks to it? I.e: freeze anything from titanium, greenify, etc
This is a result of frozen apps.

hi there
so if i check what apps are frozen and uninstall them, this will get rid of the problem basically, that simple??
It may just cause more problems. The reason the wakelock is even appearing as event log service is because the app is frozen, but causing wakelocks. But wait, didn't we freeze it?.. how can it still be causing wakelocks? Some other system level app is still capable of waking it, so it may or may not be something important.

cheers, actually i have LOTS of wakelock time taken from these 2:
1) Alarm Manager - Android System. this one grows by 5 units every time i unlock the phone and check, NORMAL??
2) Event Log Service - Google Services, this one is a bit more quiet but still growing silently.
Things i have on:
usually sync, but those 2 above grow regardless of sync being on or off, then i have 2 alarms in the calendar, one active and one not and some calendar notifications.
are those responsible? right now my phone is doing around 2% battery use but i notice that it grows very easily, just now i lost 1% in only 25 minutes.
the "awake" graph under battery looks strange.. sometimes it matches screen off (so good), sometimes, it seems to be on, with screen OFF for no reason whatsoever.
any idea?
thanks

[Q] Help identifying alarm wakelock

Hi,
I tried to search the whole wide web for identification on this particular wakelock, but the search came out negative. I have rooted Nexus 7 (2013) with stock rom and this wakelock is getting over a thousand alarm wakelocks per discharging cycle. I know it has something to do with scheduled tasks, but have you guys had this same issue with your Nexus? Can't say how much this effects the batterylife, but it would be nice to know what causes this and is it avoidable
Here is a pic from my BetterBatteryStats so you can see the wakelock in question:
So it is called ALARM_WAKEUP_ACTIVITY_DETECTION.
Thanks!
Figured it out, at least i pinpointed the cause of this wakelock. It has something to do with Googles location services. I turned all the location services off and the wakelock disappeared. Why does Google want to wakeup my device every 3 minutes even though i have device management off, google now off, everything else that relates to location, off?

Turning Google Now off usually does it. Did you have location history and/or reporting on?

I had Google Now off as well for a few days without any effect. I also disabled the history and reporting and no effect. The only thing that ended those wakelocks was to permanently shut down location services. But it's not a burden to me, only a few clicks and i can have them on when i need them.

Problem with wakelocks

Hello there. I'm trying to get rid of my battery drain for ages, tried to check for wakelocks and I have no idea what is this one in the middle, any help?
One wakelock is from your widget and when it updates generates wakelocks. Second is from stamina you have sign interval so in stamina mode your tel is wakeing up from time to time in intervals. And last is from some android service update. Install wakelock detector and check is this wakelocks are from android process.
I assume first wakelock is from trackID, tried to remove that widget, didn't help.
I don't get the second one, I don't remember any sign interval in stamina..
And yes, i think they are all android processes.

Phone stays awake a lot?

Anyone else experiencing this? I'm not sure what the reason behind this is but is it normal? After about 7 hours off charge with barely 30 minutes of screen on time, I'm down to 77%. Wakelock shows that it's been in deep sleep for only about three and a half hours. The phone has literally been doing nothing with location turned off, widget updates only once every 24 hours, etc. I'm not sure what's keeping this awake.
I have knock on turned on, but have greenified nearly everything for optimal battery life, including a handful of system apps (left a few one since i didn't know their purpose) but it seems like I should be getting a bit more.
Is anyone else getting this kind of awake time? Hopefully I didn't mess something up somehow. I can post more screenshots if anything.
Also, I am running G3 tweaksbox.

Download wakelock detector from the google play store, and see what apps are the culprits.

Did you even read the post, or the look at the attachment?
I'm getting my information from Wakelock, and I don't see any applications and/or services that appears to be triggering CPU usage, or screen wake ups.

Google App wakelocks

OK, I have these awful wakelocks, my phone is awake for 50% of time due to Google App; anyone else?
In particualr it's the AudioIn feature...
