Are you rooted? From what I've seen in that program you need to be rooted for that feature to work.

Check out this thread. Old app but might work for you.

Flash an ICS ROM. That will turn them off by default due to a bug

Turn off notifications in ur superuser app, but with the app running nonstop in ur background I doubt u will be saving much battery. Mikg3.11 has the ability to turn them off in the built in tweaks app. Just fyi

I had also found this. Also read you could force stop the app and the lights would stay off until you reboot your phone.

MikG has the option in MikTweaks it works for me.

Android System at 53%

Why is it so high?
Ever since the last OTA update it seems to be worse..
I have downloaded *but uninstalled* a non market app.. is there a way to scan to see if there is a rogue app hiding?

I can't remember what I was running on a touch wiz ROM.. but I'm using Task650/ktoonzsez aokp ROM and android system is only 6%

Edit: there is an app called carat on the market that will take a few days but will periodically monitor your phone and apps and let you know which ones are battery/system hogs or problem makers

You need to either remove that pic or censor her name and Profile pic. I was easily able to find her profile.

You guys are creepy! Lol but yeah, I think I would have removed their name too. That's why my profile is private and I only got like 30 or 40 friends. People never respect privacy. This launcher is horrible too btw. I had high hopes... But so did Wallstreet when FB went public lol

Yes, I have it too. Usually if I close the app by swiping it in the list by pressing the multitask button it'll stop using that much power

Same here.

Sorry, where have you reported this bug? I would like to do the same.

Has anyone tried turning off notifications from Instagram? I've noticed that it makes a huge difference.

I've tried, but still got really huge battery drain :/.. Seems like the prob is on 4.4 only??

Go to playstore
Download 'greenify'
Greenify instagram
Profit

I agree, yes you have to wait a little when you open up instagram but it'll won't drain your battery. So I recommend this solution
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk

I use instagram on daily basis and do not have this problem. I do swipe away via task list regularly tho.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using Tapatalk 2

I installed Instagram for the first time this after noon and in 45min it had eaten 15% of my battery (nexus5). I too had to Greenify the biatch.

I'm frequently using Instagram but I don't have any battery drain issues. I always swipe it away though.

I've been trying to figure out wtf was going on with my n5 as well and its very recent. instagram chomps up to about 25% of my battery. needs to stop.!!!

Latest version of Instagram is using 100% CPU (25% if quad-core) be it foreground or background.
The only way to resolve this is to swipe the app away in recent after using.

Wow
What app is that?

Media server battery drain issue

I have searched a few times for a resolution to this problem, but have been unable to find one that works. I have noticed that when the media server shows up under my battery stats screen I usually have an update waiting on play store.
Is there any way play store could be the cause?
In other posts I see people complaining of 10-20% battery consumption. Mine has hit up to ~70% battery consumption.

Turn your data off when you're not using it. But most likely it's an app causing a wakelock.

Turning off data did not help, but the cause you mentioned is probably correct.

Use my settings , once you set thise settings , before exiting the app , hit kill server and see that helps

Ok this may be a dead question, but something I would like to add. For the past two days I have not seen the media server in my battery stats. This is a shot of what I saw this evening. Which this is what I think my battery page should look like. I have not made any changes that would explain why it's not showing up. Any ideas or comments appreciated.

Not today, not sure about yesterday. This is not the only time it has not shown up for a few days. I also have not had any app updates. I think it's like bilgerryan stated that something is causing a wake lock but I close out apps when I finish. And usually use avg task killer to kill most running tasks.
