Android System using a ton of battery - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Ever since I got the Jelly Bean update, Androud System has been using almost as much power as the screen? Anyone else having his problem? Any idea how to fix?

My phone sucks more juice overall, but since I previously had great battery life , its not that bad.
Never the less, this update is getting more pathetic every day.

JB has been known to use more battery than ICS(At least with the port releases) I've seen upwards of 65%

If you're rooted use betterbatterystats and see exactly what is draining it. A known source of major drain (for me 10% an hour) was an unknown service in /system/bin called gsiff_daemon. It has something to do with gps, but that's besides the point. On every rom I flash, I go in and rename it to gsiff_daemon.bak this will make it so it won't run. I have done this the entire time I've had a gs3 and never once have run into an issue from disabling this service, but I have saved my battery by doing it

So this doesn't mess up your GPS or maps changing that file?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I747

I have deleted those two files in question months ago and have no issue with GPS I always get fast locks and lots of sats. I average around 1 day 5 hours on a full charge using Koontz kernel with SIO and Ktoonservative governor with some custom settings. Normally 4 hours of screen on time.

Android system uses more battery than anything else. The core background processes running there must be incredibly draining.

Nope. As the guy below you said even if you delete it you should be okay. I just rename is just in case I need it later I can remove the .bak and the file is still there.

Let me know how it works out for you when you delete that file.

I renamed it. No sense in deleting it. Hopefully it helps! Thanks!

Renamed gsiff_daemon
Renamed the file, will see if it makes a difference in my battery usage in the next few days.

In my attempt to figure out wtf that file did, I noticed that it didn't trigger every day. So give it a few days. I wish I knew what it did exactly...

Could you provide what new bloat was added that you removed (or point to a thread you used as advice)? I'm not a fan of deleting stuff like that, just in case, but I'd love to disable anything that's useless to me.

Take a look at these battery stats: all of a sudden, my battery life is crap!

So, I've been using CleanGB 1.1.2 for a few weeks, and I tried flashing a cm7 rom. Didn't like how much issues I was having, so I restored my old CleanGB rom. Ever since, my battery life is pathetic. I have an extended battery, usually charge it from 40% to 100% while I sleep. Now, its always charging because it dies so fast.
Take a look at the links, anyone have any answers? Thank you!

Try wiping battery stats....
If you don't know how the process works you can look at Qbking77's video on it- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JbYVv4nCveM
Percentages don't tell us anything. What is your display on time? What is listed in running services? How much deep sleep is your phone getting? These are all that matter, not the battery screenies.
If you have 30 minutes screen on time with high intensity and are syncing something in a poor signal area that percentage is typical. If your phone is just sitting there and it drops that much an hour later then there is an errant app not closing.
Wiping battery stats does nothing... id recommend follow kenny's advice here, we can't really help you if you don't help us help you =].

How can I prevent apps from opening in the background? Like, games for some reason are in my backgrounded apps. I never opened that game, so why is it starting?
Any advice on making sure these apps don't start unless I make it start myself?

Problem is clear, all stats are fine except android system and display,no way is display that low it should be at least 60% the higher the better as it uses the most battery out of the lost batt, android system is way to high and I don't think there is a way to check what exactly it is, I would say flash a new rom.I had abnormally high cell standby and the other cell think I forgot the name haha, flashed a new rom (reaper 2.2.2) and I've had normal stats with display using the most.

They preload part of their code so that they open quicker when you want them. You can either use Autostarts to stop them or get paid version of Titanium Backup and freeze them until you want to use them or uninstall them.

That is just a misreport. It groups everything the phone does (basically being on except deep sleep) into Android System. The important stat is Display time.

Maps draining battery

All of a sudden I've been getting less battery life. When looking at the programs that are using the battery most, Maps has been near the top of the list. The thing is, it does this even when not using the maps app at all. I've tried force closing, but still pulls CPU and drains the battery.
Running Blazer 4.1
Thanks

I used to have that same problem, try uninstalling the updates on Maps and turning your GPS off until you need it. Hope this helps.

Phone not sleeping?

Please don't flame me for another battery thread, but I'm just curious if this is normal for CM10 and if there is a way to fix it?
My phone looks like it wakes up like every couple min.
I already applied the build.prop tweaks. Can anyone help me?

I'm evaluating Juice Defender Ultimate on CM10, but it's too early to tell. Have you tried looking at running apps and see if you have something stuck in a restarting loop? Maybe get Cache Clear and clear out a misbehaving app cache (not sure that would have an effect)...
Not sure if its from an app cause this doesn't happen on gingerbread. If it were though how would I identify the offending app?

I run juice defender ultimate with the cm10 nightlies. It doesn't seem to be consistent. I have gotten the same results as the OP even with JD running occasionally. One other thing to note about JD is that it doesn't seem to retain my settings. It winds up defaulting back to the balanced profile. I haven't done extensive research yet. Just some minor observations. But using JD (when it works) is still worth it to me.

Check your running processes and see what's there. I have found media server to keep the phone awake at times for unreasonable lengths. But I haven't found what's triggering it yet.

Try to freeze google maps, if mine is unfroze it wakelocks every 2 minutes. -.- also turn off network location. system updates can mess up your battery life too. also, disable google now if you dont use it, its a battery killer as well. i get at least 1:40 on a stock battery screen on time, and 5-7 hours screen on time with a 3800mah battery. phone usually deep sleeps.
I do think google maps was the culprit here, I cleared data and cache and that seems to have really helped. Thanks for you response.

What's your screen on time.
Looked kinda like liteflow might be causing problems?
Cell Standby i think is the one that is coded wrong and is lying, ignore that one.
If you press Android System in settings, battery it will show you the top components being used
Also in dev options look for and check Show CPU Usage. It will show whats using the cpu in the top right of your screen. Watch for what stays in the top few spots in the list.
There may have been something that didnt like the update. Try first uninstalling apps and if that helps reinstall them clean, no data restore. If you continue to have problems backup all data and factory reset. Start clean.
If all else fails use odin to flash the full LH2 fw.
LH2 should be a fairly stable build. Most have no issues and many get outstanding battery life. Im willing to bet its either an app or the way you updated or both.

That's really not THAT bad for a screen on time. I saw your screenshots in the OP, and you were down to 80% in only two hours of being on the battery, but you had the screen on for almost an hour of those two hours; 20%/hr for the first few hours is pretty normal. It's not stellar, but I wouldn't say it's an epic drain that being said, I'm sure you could squeeze some more juice out of it, and prob is just an app causing more drain than usual.
Also when doing a screenshot, it helps to hit the power button first, then the volume, so you don't get the volume pop up every time.

Yes indeed.
The Google location services is a big user as well, but to turn it off or prevent it's autostart would hinder Google now, at least I would think so.
Good point on the media server. The battery life was better before this update, and I'm sure Google was still hogging battery life. So media server seems to be the problem... Possible.
Could one possible freeze certain apps to eliminate the drain from the media server?

Mediaserver drains battery fiercely due to a bad image file or video file......it keeps trying to read the file. The only fix that I found was to backup your sd card reformat it then add a folder at a time to make sure it doesnt get stuck scanning.

I've found that it is only the network based locating that causes this particular wakelock madness. Turn off network based location and maps behaves fine... Shame really as Google Now is coded to be broken unless Google knows what network your connected to.

I doubt it's any of my files. It never was a problem on LJC. And even now the problem is random. Comes and goes on different boots. I'm thinking maybe Samsung accounts might have to do something with it. A few days ago I noticed it updated a Samsung push service app on its own. In my head that sounds about the same time my problem started.

That's why I use autostarts to disable everything unless I open it manually. Then you don't need to turn off the location services they just don't activate til YOU tell them too. They fully function just like normal only they only function when the app is in the foreground

Doing what? Disabling network-based locating, or using autostarts?
Google Now to fully function requires knowledge of what wifi network or cellular network you're connected to to...Shame really, and downright creepy.
