Both my Gmail accounts keep on not syncing themselves. I'll notice I'm not getting my emails, go into my Gmail account and notice the sync is turned off. I don't use the power save option. It seems to do this on its own. Has anyone else has this problem or insight to what it might be?
Thank you.

I've seen this as well. Stock rooted. All my accounts will spontaneously get their auto sync turned off without input by me. Really strange. Gmail, Hotmail, isp account and work email all just stop. Happened today in fact. I thought it had to do with a wifi snafu at work. I can't be certain.

Well, I have yet to figure out why. I've been doing some digging but no solution yet. I'll let you know if I find out anything. Please let me know if you figure it out also please. Thanks

I wonder if it is a powersaver function that kicks in when battery gets low or something. I'll have to avoid charging and see if I can induce the issue that way. My battery is @ 97% darn it.

I haven't been having good battery life. I usually get about 2 and half hours of screen time. I use my brightness at max so I guess that's also to blame. But recently I don't know why but exchange has just been killing my battery. I wasn't even really using the phone as my screen time was small. I have 1 exchange account synced that's it. Take a look at my battery pic. I'm on wicked blue rom with trinity 43b. Has anybody else had this happen or know why and how to fix it? I tried using task manager and killing email but didn't have much effect.

I'm running the latest version of Ultimatum by howtomen. I just got my gorilla gadgets extended battery and I've gotten over 40 hours. The phone has been through two nights and has only been in deep sleep for 4.5 hours. I'm showing a power service manager wake lock and can't find anything about it in search. Any help would be appreciated.

What are you using to examine wake locks?
PowerManagerService corresponds to anything and everything that generates a partial wakelock, so if you have a list of those, that's where to look.

I am seeing the same thing. That process kept my phone "awake" for two hours while the screen was off. Which app/process did you freeze to fix this? Was is "PicasaUploader" ?
If you just disable Picasa album syncing in your Settings|Accounts|Google|<account_name> will that have the same affect?

I actually started with disabling the Picasa synchronization on my Google accounts and that seems to have stopped the problem. I think the issue actually came from the fact that one of the accounts I have got stuck while trying to synchronize with Picasa. Since its account that I don't actually upload photos to, it didn't matter anyway if I disabled the synchronization.
Now my phone shows that it goes into a deep sleep for more than 2/3 of the time that the screen is off. That is a lot better than being awake 100 percent of the time.

I used Settings|Accounts|Google|<account_name> . I actually disabled uploading from all 5 google accounts I have on my phone because I use dropbox to synch my photos back to my pc.
See attached screenshot. And yes, it was -2 F this morning when I took the screenshot.....

picasa sync was using 87% of my battery, followed these instructions to turn it off and remove photos.
I deleted mine with TB just to be safe.

Looks like you got a wakelock, use better battery stats to see what's causing it. That almost solid blue bar in your 2nd screen shot shows way more awake time than what your screen on time is, awake almost 80% or so of your total uptime

All that maps stuff will kill your battery, especially if you're inside where gps can't lock fast. I use autostarts to force maps to stay off unless I open them. And yes cards in google now do hit battery pretty hard as well.

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

Sorry of this question seems redundant.
So will doing this hinder Google now or any of its features?

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.

Rooting and unlocking is huge if you want battery improvements. Removing apps such as google+ will help with battery drain and the ROMs we have out now also have scripts and other battery enhancements.

Also, with that pic, I don't have the bars under it showing screen on, awake times, WiFi on, charging or signal. How can I get these back? They are very useful pieces of info.

In maps, you can go into settings/locations, and uncheck all that stuff that lets google monitor your location while you're phone sleeps, this resolved my maps wake lock issue, not sure about the SMS one.

Tap the little orange icon to the right. It will take you to the browser and explain what power manager is. It's likely due to push notifications. You can check what's doing this under partial wakelocks.

Do you have active monitoring enabled in better battery stats? When I had that turned on, that was giving me the most wakelocks due to power manager service.

BBS doesn't consume much battery at all compared to others, unless of course if you have the app actively monitoring but the option should be Unchecked by default.
Also, as the page to the link states, in order to resolve any of the wakelocks causing the PowerManagerService issue you must "Use "Partial Wakelocks" to drill down the applications / services causing wakelocks".
