[Q] [Battery Drain] Android OS sucking a lot of battery - Sony Xperia M

Hello,
From the last 2-3 days my phone's battery life reduced by 4-5 hours. Upon checking I found that Android OS is taking a lot of battery (Image attached). I have just a couple of sync settings on. Its also keeps the CPU awake. Please suggest any way to stop this.
Thanks

When did this happen? What did you do anyway that made your Android OS blow up the roof?

I changed it to 2g. Still Android OS is sucking battery, even for minimal use. Check the image.

Thanks for the reply, I ain't on CM11. Just the stock rom with gravity Box Mods.

44% is too much. Which FW you are using? And are you rooted?
If yes set lower CPU when screen off, that saves battery a lot, n did you turn stamina mod on?
Look at mine

Thanks for the reply. I am using Stock 4.1.2 Build 15.1.C.2.8 (Fully Rooted with busy Box). How to set lower CPU? Also, I don't use Stamina mode as I get a lot of Emails and I need push notification to work for that. Any other solution that you can suggest?

You can use Stamina mode with push notifications, just whitelist the apps you need working with screen off...

Dont say thanks,Hit thanks ,
Go to stamina mod and add apps you want,like gmail,whatsapp,etc,and then turn on stamina mod
Am using du battery saver pro there you get option to lower CPU frequency when screen is off,
And also I recommend install greenify and put apps which you use rarely,

Try to turn off your Gps and if there's no 3G connection, switch to 2G only
It'll help..

try to disable some things like
-google location services and GPS satellite in "location and security" settings
-use 3G connection only when needed
-reduce device brightness in "display" settings
-use adrenaline engine 4.4 script,it will gives you major amount of good battery life and gives you a better performance.
-delete some useless system apps when not needed,it will gives you better battery life+better performance

why don't you try install cm 7, 9, or 10, they are very stable and better than stock rom in performance.
if you use your phone a lot for playing games it does eat the battery no matter what rom you install.

[Q] Battery Saving apps stop working

Hey everyone! Over the last weeks I have been trying out several battery-saving applications on my Huawei P6:
- Juice Defender (Ultime)
- GreenPower
- Deep Sleep Battery Saver
- ...
I configure all of these battery saving apps to enable data/wifi for 1 minute, then disable it again for 5 minutes.
All the applications work when they are just started but after a while (~20minutes) these application stops enabling data/wifi...
Because of that I no longer receive any emails, ... because the connection is not enabled automatically...
I am running version B111 and all background apps are allowed to run. I am not running a task killer which could be killing these applications.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Anyone else using any battery saving apps that they can recommend?
Feedback is appreciated!

Why u using such bloatware or crapware? it is not compatible .. with P6 u have built in power save ..

Whether the battery saving apps are Bloatware/Crapware is a personal opinion. I'm free to use whatever I like and I wanted to use if because there is much more functionality included in these dedicated battery saving apps compared to the built-in power save option on the Huawei P6.
I don't get why it's not compatible? Even after disabling the built-in power save feature on my P6 It still did not work.

You know which app is quite good ? ES Task manager ! Install it (looks like they updated it -NICE) and in options there is power optimizer ... u can toggle on/off what u want to turn off once u press optimize .. good stuff
Try it
At the moment I am really happy with the greenpower
Greenify
Setcpu combo.
if I don't use the mobile my battery is still around 80% after 6hours...

Stamina Mode :good::laugh:

[Q] battery is not so good.

i am generally using lowest brightness. gps/nfc/bluetooth closed all time and i am rarely using 3g. but i couldnt see 2 days and if i play games etc. even not 1 day. when i look a games informations, force close button always clickable.(to after reboot.)(death moto,chess free in fact almost all apps.) what is the problem ?
edit: my phone is rooted.
Did you enable Stamina mode? You could also try Greenify...

i am using low battery mode.(second option). when i activated stamina battery is finishing so faster. i couldnt understand. for example from night to morning %20 using battery.. with just second option %2-3 .
and i am gonna look for greenify. looks good.
can you suggest a cpu controller ?
You can't control CPU with the stock kernel. Something is really wrong, check running processes, something may be running constantly in background...
I've a solution which you could try....
Root is must
#First convert fb app to user app via titanium backup
#add it to list of greenify
#keep stamina mode on I am getting 1 day backup easily

Yes ..The battery is draining fast...!
I also noticed the battery drain after the KitKat update of my device... Previously my device used to last for 1 1/2 day after full charge with a moderate usage. But now with the same usage, Its draining fast and lasting up to evening only...! Is there any way to revert back to Jelly Bean...? My primary concern for buying this phone is 6" display and battery stamina... The kitkat update is eating up my battery...! :crying:
Yes.. The battery drains out quickly
few days after upgrading to kitkat... the battery is draining out quickly.. now i have to charge the battery twice a day... tried to force stop many applications... but no use... please anyone help me....
