[Q] gprs-data-stall wakelock - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

hi there,
using BBS, i find that "gprs-data-stall" is responsible for my phone not to sleep. so there are several questions:
- how is this wakelock triggered?
- what does it mean?
- how can we prevent it?
i've been searching the internet for answers, but couldn't find anything. maybe there is somebody around here who can answer at least one of those questions?
regards

..bump..

I have the same waklock also during airplane mode for 7hours:
Alarms: 72, Intent: com.android.internal.telephony.gprs-data-stall

seems like no one on xda knows anything about this...hard to believe

How about a screenshot?
I guess it's under Alarms.

Anyone ever figure this out?

bump, as this is the only thing waking up my phone after vigurous tweaking.. cant find the culprit. its inside com.android.phone.
use BBS to check it, in Alarms.
single handedly went through each app and system process using Autorun manager pro, still cannot find anything that pinpoints this process..

This the one you're referring to? (in screenshots)
As you can see, my deep sleep and battery life overall is pretty good with it...2 hrs 14 mins screen on and 59% or so battery left with a total time of close to 13.5 hrs....Not sure what this gprs-stall thing is but seems to be a regular enough function of the system since the phone is exhibiting good enough drain and battery usage, no?

Android System High Usage

Hi guys,
Anyone have an idea what would cause my battery stats to have very high "Android System" usage all of a sudden. No new apps installed.
Thanks
I'm seeing this get pretty high as well. Starting to wonder... TW really limits the information in the Battery Status dialog. Hopefully we'll get ROMs soon that have more detailed information like I had in MikG.

It has always been a bit higher than I am used to. I just grabbed the new version of betterbatterystats from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809
Hopefully I can use this to figure it out.

Please keep me posted if you find anything
System Panel works really well for me I found. Paid version is totally worth it, too.
Just another thought/question...
I am assuming since it is "Android System" causing such high usage ( I have 5% battery left and android system is 30%), that it cant be an app I installed causing the issue.
It has to be something that is either part of the stock ROM (I am stock, not rooted) or something core to the android operating system. PLease let me know if you agree with my logic that it cant be an installed app.
Just trying to find the root cause at this point or determine if I have to hard reset which I dont feel like doing.
Thanks again
The original SGS2 has an issue similar to this.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1290020
They discovered with it that the processor has to ramp back up to 800MHz to do its pre-deep sleep tasks, in addition to taking longer than normal to do those tasks. So with a phone that woke up often to sync, even limiting the processor to 200 MHz with the screen off, it still spends a considerable amount of time at 800 MHz. I don't think they have a fix, but you can work around by limiting the amount of syncing the phone does while sleeping.
Don't know if this is related, since TMO SGS2 doesn't use the Exynos.
Thanks for the reply. My problem is that the battery usage for android system used to be 5% or less and now out of the blue is 25-30%.
Did you change any sync settings? Setting up an email account or maybe a widget to sync could do it. The phone has to do a bunch of system related tasks when it wakes up and goes to sleep, and those fall under "Android OS", so even if it is waking up to sync for an app, the system still has to do stuff, and more than usual when coming out of sleep. Like the other thread said, the original SGSII does all these things at a far higher clock speed than it needs to, and takes longer than most phones do.
I myself don't have the phone yet, nor do I have an original SGS2, but you could look up much of the same information the gentleman who wrote up the OP in that thread I linked to see if the issue is related.
I was so annoyed with this issue that I decided to do a factory reset. I dont think it helped.
So far after being off the charger for 2 hours....I sent 5 texts, browsed web for about 5 minutes. I am down to 87%. Display time is 46%, used for 18 min and android system is 17% with stay awake time at 3 minutes, and there are other items taking up battery at 5% or less like cell standby, android os, market
Does this seem normal, I never rememver android system taking up over 5% even with little usage. I am actually pissed because I would have thought that a factory reset would have helped for sure.
BTW, I am only syncing one acct, Google
I've been watching with betterbatterystats for a couple days now. I've got Skype running in the background so I expect that to use some battery and cause some wake ups.
But it has turned out that location services and updates have been doing a lot more, as much as 7000 in one day. They show up as something related to Maps, but I think that it might be Latitude. So I have disabled that location tracking. We'll see if it helps, there isn't much more using my battery. It is just something keeping it from deep sleeping.
If this doesn't work I'll look at other location apps like weather and such. I already uninstalled Accuweather after reading about how they transfer your location tracking information over the Internet unencrypted!

Kernel wakelock mdm_hsic_pm0?

I am seeing a lot of kernel wakelocks from this in BBS, but can't find anything about it online. Does anyone know what it is?
First time I see it today, so I searched and I see you have the same problem.
Today is the first day I've been on 3G (no LTE in my area) all day, with WiFi disconnected, and BetterBatteryStats shows FastDormancy and mdm_hsic_pm0
Causally related? I am fairly sure FastDormancy is causally related to the 3g stuff, but not sure about mdm_hsic_pm0 - it's possible?
I'm on the i317M, though, so maybe that could help us troubleshoot.
Yes, I have indeed seen other reports of mdm and FastDormancy occurring simultaneously, but I don't have FastDormancy at all.
I have been unable to find any info on mdm since this post. There are a couple threads like this on other forums, so far none with answers though. It appears it is occurring with the GS3, as well.
If anyone else has any info, it would be much appreciated....

I am getting the same thing which is driving me nuts. I loose more battery overnight while sleeping then during the day when I sporadically use my device due to this.
Anyone?
i'm having this wakelock as well. can't find any information on it...anyone else?
People are saying in another thread that it's the "l2 hsic" for jellybean and it has to do with charging. One possible solution is to wake phone and go to home screen before unplugging charger. Also pulling battery for a couple minutes may help.

I Disabled Fast Dormancy and that wake lock disappeared.
I'm not sure if we can get rid of the mdm_hsic_pm0 one.

Bump, any updates on this?
Double Bump!

Finally, humanity is defeated by software bug
Just a hunch, this might have something to do with location or GPS. My wakelock with this doubled with GPS on for the day. While I had roughly the same amount of wakelocks from the Google maps location updaters.

any update on this? Recently happend to me and i went from 38 hours battery life to 18. Now granted yes thats still good. Nonetheless i want this to stop.
I am getting this same wakelock and it's seriously getting on my nerves. My phone rarely ever gets to enter deep sleep because of this. Is this related to certain ROMs or is it effecting all note IIs?

Hey guys I'm from the Verizon Note 2. I actually made a search on Google this morning and it led me hear. I recently noticed a decrease in my battery life and seem to have the same problem as you guys, mine only caused about 35mins of wake time yesterday but if we could remove it the better for all of us.
There's also stuff I'm not really aware of if I can freeze or trash it all together. I'm new to this battery stats app. I added other pictures of possible stuff killing my battery, it seemed ebay mobile was a contender as well so i trashed it lol. I'm also on a custom ROM.

Probably the single.best thing you can do for your battery is to get. Google maps to stop reporting your location all day.
Go into the settings of Maps and disable reporting, unless you need it for something of course.

Which as far as I can tell has nothing to do with this specific wakelock, which sometimes causes my phone to never go into deep sleep.
Yes, maps is obnoxious and causes plenty of its own wakelocks, but if mdm_hsic_pm0 is keeping my phone awake 100% of the time it's pretty irrelevant.

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] Why is my phone not going into deep sleep?

For some reason my M9 doesn't want to go into deep sleep much. Out of the 1 hour I have it off the charger, only 2 minutes were in deep sleep. I haven't used the phone at all in that 1 hour, so I'm not sure why it wouldn't be sleeping.
Does anyone have this problem or know how to fix it? Thanks

Buy, install, do proper settings, put it into monitoring mode.. then switch of screen and go sleep - in the morning see the activities what were happening during the night monitored..

I've used a very similar app. There are no wake locks. All it says is "Android OS" is using 100% of the screen off battery. Even in the normal HTC battery settings, android OS is using 100%. Thanks for the help though.
System Panel is neither similar nor showing you those funny wakelocks..
It thoroughly informs you about CPU usage last night..

Thanks, but all those apps are the same. They can only get a certain amount of info from the core system. There are apps that do the exact same thing for free, which is what I use.
As an update to my problem, rebooting the phone and clearing cache seemed to have solved the issue for now.

If you run out of ideas on how to fix this, I'd say get root, get Xposed, and get Power Nap. Pretty much blocks all wakelocks at night and I see like 1% drain the next morning.

Wait...xposed works on 64bit phones? Wow I've been missing out for nothing lol.
Yes, but make sure you use the xposed arm64 file.

Here's the zip you want xposed-sdk21-arm64.zip
And you also need the alpha installer.

Stock OS

Been poking around here and reading all the posts that people had mentioning battery life on stock/cm11. Is battery life really that good? I find myself trying everything possible (including hardly using the device, turning brightness all the way down, turning off bluetooth & Dynamic perspective) and I find that my phone is dropping like a brick. I can have the phone lose %s in front of me just having the screen open for a few minutes doing nothing else.
I even have two apps to optimize/kill all other apps and I'm finding that this phone is dying faster than a t-mobile pre paid LG L90 I was using prior. I just don't see how people with stock and all the features on are getting more than 5 hours battery life tops. This phone dies while you use it on the charger, which is a first from any phone I've ever used.
How do your experiences stack up? Do I just have a bad unit? Really considering going to cm11 now (really wanted to like Fire OS).
You must have something wrong with the phone. I have had Samsung S3's and S4's and the Fire is far and away the best I have experienced for battery life. I am getting close on two days on a full charge although I do not use it a great deal for voice calls.

Are you keeping Dynamic perspective off with a low brightness instead of auto? Don't see how two days is possible unless you absolutely never used the device. I can lose like 10% an hour just on the browser reading text sites.
Fire has the best battery life of any android phone I've owned. I'm on fire os with a different launcher and I have dynamic perspective on (not for home screen obviously). I'm also using auto brightness. I'm rooted with gapps installed. I get great standby time and even in use its good. You should get gsam battery monitor and see what's going on, although I think you might have a broke unit.
Here is a picture from Gsam (I don't have my phone rooted). I think this is pretty bad for only 3:28hrs of screen on time and that was with the screen at the lowest brightness, not on auto. For app usage I have 7% coming from a game I was playing, but the rest of the drain is coming from system and kernel. Would really like to see another users stats with similar screen on time, as I'm pretty sure I could completely kill this phone's battery in 4-5 hours just using silk browser on Reddit.

On the off chance that you or anyone else can help me understand what's going on I ran a ~10% drain test and made a picture including information from WakeLock Detector and GSam. This drain seems very bad considering the screen was only on for a total of 16 minutes and I lost 8% power.

Your phone isn't going into deep sleep. It's hard to determine exactly what's going on there but if you download kernel adiutor (yes, that's the spelling) you'll see its locked at 300mhz most of the time. I know it sounds crazy but have you rebooted? That can often sort out a misbehaving app. Are you rooted? If so deploy greenify.

5 hours of "screen on time" is solid, the combined time incl. standby, etc. is of course much longer. He didn't know how to interpret the statistics from the device, it was a misunderstanding.

That kernel app won't help battery life but it will show you how long you spend in deep sleep.
As for greenify, you should greenify all the Google apps. I actually greenify everything except sms app, browser, phone and alarm apps.
Also, this could possibly be some kind of location based frippery. Turn location services off or onto battery saving mode if only temporarily. And turn off auto sync if it's on.
