Weird boot up "AudioOut_2" wake lock - Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Recently I found a weird wakelock generate EVERYTHING I reboot my phone.
My setup:
phone: Galaxy Note 2 LTE N7105
Rom: Wanamite V1.1 N7105
Kernel: Perseus 33.1 (26/2/2013)
Modem : DLL5
Everytime I reboot, this AudioOut_2 wakelock keep waking my phone for 8-15 mins . After that the phone can go deep sleep alright
and this AudioOut_2 wakelock doesn't activate again until I listen to music or playing games with sound.
I already disabled all system sound in my phone, like keypad press tone, unlock sound..etc.
I uninstall/froze ALL music player apps, like Google play music and Samsung music player.
I tried to freeze poweramp(my main and only music player) as well to test if it was Poweramp generate this wakelock on boot, the result is not.
Even I freeze the poweramp and then reboot, the AudioOut_2 wakelock still here. The duration is about the same as well.
I disabled Media Scanning via Rescan Media (root) as well.
I don't know what's up with it? Can anyone have the knowledge can give me a hand on this one? Thanks
P.S I tried to reflash the Rom, Kernel and Modem too but doesn't solve anything.
Here are the screen shots

I never put my phone in silent mode ; - ;
By the way, Thanks man! I will search for the issue.

Uninstall Viber and audioOut-2 will stop. I already removed it and audioOut stopped.

By the way you can freeze it if you want to use it sometimes.

I don't have Viber - in fact I've no idea what it is - but Audio2 is my major culprit for partial wakelocks too. Never booted up in silent mode either, FWIW.
It hasn't worried me before because I still get good battery life - I switch between Redpill and Perseus - but now I'm paranoid because I've no idea what it is.
On [email protected], stock video and music removed, have Poweramp and MX Video instead, and have had this setup since SGS1 days.
If anyone has the patience to investigate further I'd be grateful. My kids preclude this.

Spotify/Pandora stuttering

For some annoying reason every time I play Spotify or Pandora the music starts skipping gently free frequently. I have WiFi on so it shouldn't be the reception.
I have been monitoring the RAM usage when it happens but everything seems normal to me.
I wonder if it is an app running deep down or something.
Any suggestions? Anyone else having this issue?
What is your RAM usage when you are running the above mentioned?
Thanks.

Not to sure. I do use Pandora One with the Unlimited skip feature. I do notice sometimes that the app may hang for a little longer than usual when the next song is trying to stream but thats just an annoyance problem. Ram usage is about the same sometimes goes up to 890 with pandora playing.

Thanks for the reply but I decided to reflash so the problem went away.
A few apps are suspects as I started having problems after installing them sort of around the same time:
1. GN2 camera and gallery
2. Changing the bootanimation.
3. Installing ROM Toolbox Pro.
Not sure which of those, if any, could be the cause of the stuttering.
Thanks,

AudioOut_2 Wakelock

After using Betterbatterystats on my Note 2 there is only one thing that is killing my battery from going into deep sleep. I did a lot of research on this wakelock and all I could find was to make sure you have it set to sound, then reboot then you could change it to vibrate or silent. I never have on sound for buttons so I know this isn't the problem. Has anyone found the solution to this wakelock or am I the only one. Thanks.

Were you listening to music or watching a video?
You will get "AudioOut_2" partial wakelocks not just with music/video players... but also if you play games (even if you select mute in that game). You show nearly 2 hrs of this wakelock in 3hrs since unplug (cannot see your "deep sleep" or "awake" times). Either you were playing a game OR that game was left open in the background. Check your open processes... kill any games and like... then reset your BBS stats (Menu... Set Custom Ref). Open one of your games (if you have one)... play for 30sec.. then EXIT that game. Check your BBS stats and you'll probably show 30sec of AudioOut_2 partial wakelock. your phone should be deep-sleeping however when sceen is off.. if not, that's a problem.

uncheck keytones and screen lock sounds.
I've also found this to be due to the touch sounds enabled. It's also responsible for the 'keep awake' time in mediaserver. I don't think this is supposed to be intended function. I'm inclined to think AudioOut_2 should only show up when sounds are being produced
I've been looking for a way to have the process killed whenever it isn't in the foreground. Anyone know of an app that will do that?
Apperently Viber can cause that wakelock. I installed it yesterday and today I had the same audioout2 wakelock problem for 2½ hours in 4 hours uptime. I have tried a fix that should work and I will see if it is Viber that caused it. The fix is to go to settings in Viber and enable "use system sounds" instead of the apps own sounds.
R: AudioOut_2 Wakelock
I haved same problem of audioout_2 and i have found that google play music was causing the problem, if i play a song, stop and exit, my phone don't go anymore in deep sleep, and audioout_2 remain active until i set the media volume to 0.
I think it's a bug of google play music.

I get the same wakelock regardless of which music player I use. I've tried Shuttle, Google Music, PowerAmp, and PlayerPro.

Fix AudioOut_4 wakelock!!

Hi guys
I heard that many people have encountered the AudioOut_4 wakelock in Jelly Beans ROM. I personally used Jelly Beans myself on RENOVATE. What I used to have is very high AudioOut_4 wakelock even when I turn off all sound!
Today I found a solution for my problem. Hope it helps u guys too!
I open Music Player, Press Play on a random song, then stop it, then Long press BACK to force close app! (don't get me wrong but I have never used the music player since I flash the new ROM)
Since then the AudioOut_4 wakelock is gone!
Hopefully this is helpful for those with high AudioOut_4 wakelock!
i solved it by removed the viber
I experienced the same problem.
Don't know what is causing it as I have totally lost track what is my last installed or updated application.
Tried reinstall it & didn't see the audioout 4 wakelock again...sounds good for first steps.
Then install 5 applications one n tried reboot as the problem can be seen immediately.
Finally, got to know it was actually caused by d viber application. Not sure whether it was my last update on around 20 Mar.
It works perfectly now after two days so far.
Please read HERE, There are many explanations and advices about all wakelocks, not only AUDIO_4

My case very sure is caused by viber after using so many tool to trace.
After trying all the versions the last working Viber without the Audio 4 in my phone is 2.3.2.61
What resolves this wakelock for me is to upgrade viber and skype to the latest version (as of today 6 August 2013).
I've had massive problems with Audio Out 4. During a 21 hour uptime, I had 2h41m of Screen On and 5h40m of Awake. Audio Out 4 had 5068 (!) wakes during that period. I have a rooted HOX+ with stock ROM, and I tried freezing the stock Music app, the stock Music widget and the stock Music enhancer a couple of minutes ago. I will get back to you with my results as soon as I have statistics.
Alright, it didn't work. Still getting thousands of wakelocks from AudioOut_4.
Same here, dunno what to do..

It's not only when you play music or so...the wakelock appears too if you play games or if you have ticked system sounds or notification sounds in each app which has that option ...so even with vibration mode if you get notification the wakelock sometimes appears...disable all not necessary sounds in settings/sounds and in each app you don't need if

Music skipping/freezing when screen is off

I notice that whenever I play music (Pandora or Google Music) with the screen off and a bunch of recent applications, the sound will skip and stutter. This only happens when the screen is off AND when I have a bunch of recent applications open. It sounds like an issue with how JB is handling RAM, but I have 80-90% ram usage at most when it happens; or perhaps is an issue with the wakelock under heavy RAM usage. If I clear all the recent applications by holding the home button down and clicking the trash icon, this problem goes away.
Phone Info:
- Teshxx's stock T-889 rom odexed (03-05-13) 4.1.2
- Baseband T889UVALK8
- Model: GT-N7105 (I could rename to T-889 but I believe this is relevant to the issue)
Attempts to resolve:
- Wiped dalvik cache and regular cache
- Installing newer versions of Teshxx's stock odexed rom
- Wiped app data from Google Music and Pandora
Potentially related:
- I deleted the stock music player and musicFX app
- I deleted some other miscellaneous apps
- I have some tasker profiles that address both Pandora and Google Music (one is a trigger to open Pandora, the other is to increase volume of Google Music)
- I have not tried and would like to avoid doing a full system wipe
Im completely stock and listen to pandora several hours a day. Usually while driving to and from work.
No issues for me.
Could be an issue with your ROM.

Do you usually have the screen off and have a bunch of recent apps?
Same happens to me with LG O3D in every music player (only while screen off). Even If I Use only 70 % of ram

Screen is off when im driving.
Ive gone days with out rebooting my phone, and i dont go in and stop them. So yes recent apps has what ever has been opened in between reboots.
Probably a ROM issue. I am back onto stock with my gs3 (Waiting on note 2) and have never had those issues. O have had them on different ROMS though.
I can have tons of apps open and screen off and no issues on stock. Shouldn't be a RAM issue either as 2G is plenty.

I encountered a simular problem on my Samsung infuse tracked it down to cpu throttling I'd check governer and scheduler may be some screen off power save bias built in to rom maybe

I do believe it may be related to CPU throttling as well. I do not have powersaving enabled and also do not have have any governing apps. I have better battery stats to track my CPU speeds and battery stuff, but I'm not sure how to set governing without an app.

Are you using voodoo sound?
Could be ROM, kernel, CPU settings, etc. This happened to me last week with the CM nightlies. I installed an update & my music started stuttering like crazy when the screen was off. Turns out I had the CPU settings customized for a special kernel but hadn't reinstalled that kernel, so the phone was trying to manage the stock CM kernel with settings for the custom kernel.
This used to happen to me before I switched to Perseus kernel. Since then I don't have the issue. Could you try that?

I tried doing a full wipe and installed teshxx's N7105 t-mo rom (4/09/13) and did not use any throttling apps (everything else stock). The music was still skipping with the screen off, but I tried setting my minimum CPU speed to 400mhz (from 200mhz) and the skipping stopped (300mhz still skips). So I'm positive it's a problem with CPU throttling now. Since it's a full wipe and I'm still having this issue, I feel that it's a hardware issue. Perhaps I should just warranty my phone.
Changed governor to on demand and all is good.
Music skipping when screen turns off
Hey guys, I didn't realize how many other people were having this problem too....
My phone is rooted and I used ROM Toolbox Pro to turn up the min CPU value from 200mhz to 400mhz and it seems to work so far. So if you can find any type of app that can up your minimum value on your CPU it might do the trick. Because that stutter is super annoying....
I will keep you guys up to date if this doesn't work. But so far so good.
I noticed the same thing on my note 10.1 tab. Fully stock, first day i got it it did that with Google play music. Only noticed it that one time though. I'll report back if it happens again.

Battery drain with marshmallow

Hi all. I have an sgh-i317m that I have tried a number of AOSP/CM13 ROMS. I get battery drain when connected to WiFi regardless of what ROM I try, with or without Gapps, location, or WiFi scanning,
I tried turning off wifi during sleep but the phone never gets to sleep.
Wondering if any one else has had this issue and solved it.
Thanks
Appears to me that an app is running in the background that is stopping the phone from going into sleep mode.
Maybe install a logging app?

It does this even before I install Gapps or any 3rd pay apps.
According to better battery stats, wlan_rx_ wake is causing a wake lock.
