Help me understand the battery graph. - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

The below screen shot shows approx 8 hours is this 8 hours since phone was removed from charger ? I think so just want to confirm.
Also the gap in network signal. I am assuming this means at some point for a certain amount of time my phone didn't have a signal ? If true this would be most odd as I have a cel fi signal booster in my home.
Thanks.

Yes you are correct the phone was on battery power and the signal was lost in the gap. Was it put in airplane mode. That would disconnect the mobile signal

No wi fi calling always off. Phone was also never put in airplane mode. So basically looks like my radio turns off sometimes.

There is another thread somewhere with people complaining about this happening to them, too. It happens to me, I think its a reporting bug in kitkat, mine shows big gaps too, but never has it not been connected to a tower.

Are my pings on my speedtests normal?

Lately I have been trouble with my data connection. While I'm browsing the web the connection will time out or I will loose my signal. This just started this week and the time of day seems to have no effect.
I am getting a mix of really high ping rates (600+Ms), some good pings and sometimes it fails to complete the test. All of these tests where done pretty much right after each other.
A lot of times when I go to access a page the upload arrow will light up and stay lit and the page never loads.
Is this normal or could I have a defective Gs2?

I had called T-Mobile about the problem and they said they would reset my connection. I thought that had helped at first but I guess it hasn't. I have also tried doing a factory reset. But nothing makes a difference.

honestly does it make a difference when you surf around or download anything?

Yes. A lot of times it will not connect at all. Or it will load half the page and then loose its connection.

Why is "phone" using so much battery?

I'm wondering why this is happening, I've only made like two phone calls today, is this normal cuz i don't remember ever seeing phone draining that much battery.

you were talking with screen on... so 2 hours of screen time with 1:50 of phone time is kind of normal.

No I was not talking at all, i made two quick phone calls and that's it, and phone had never showed up using that much battery. Anyway I flashed darkside cache wipe and that seemed to fix it

Hows your reception? I know if i dont turn on airplane mode while at work "Phone" shows up just like yours does. I realized its cause i would constantly go in and out of service and when im out of service it would stay awake and never sleep. Plus at my dads house, HSPA is really weak, so i either must force 2G or 3G in order for my "Phone" to stop chewing up battery.

No bars showing on 4G

I am running my T-Mobile Note 3 on ATT. I have noticed whenever I switch from LTE to 4G that it shows no bars even though I know I actually have 3-4 bars of connectivity. Any ideas as to why this would be? Maybe something in settings?
Sent from my SM-N900T using Tapatalk
I have also noticed that whenever I make a phone call, the status bars will switch to showing 4G icon only (from 4G LTE icon) and again show zero bars even though I obviously have a good connection and have no issues with the phone call. It must be some software bug.
This is on a rooted device with stock ROM by the way.

I just got fed up and switched my N900T to GSM mode only when home. More bars ( full ) and better battery life.
Ok I got it figured out. I had a setting checked off on Wanam that I shouldn't have and this was causing no bars to show when on 4G and edge. Unchecking took care of the problem.

Wifi shows in battery stats even with wifi off. Anyone see this?

When I check the battery stats(stock), the green bar is full next to wifi, even though it is off. Wondering if this is a true bug or just a reporting issue and wifi is really off. Here's a screenshot, wifi was off the entire time.

I have this prob too. Wifi is off scanning is off yet it still shows wifi is on in battery stats

It will show up even if you turn your phone off.
Probably the same visual glitch with the battery stats left over from Lollipop.
On my N5 with Lollipop I was able to confirm the WiFi was actually off and not using any battery during that time.
As a work around, if you disable WiFi while still connected to the WiFi network it will show properly as off. But just to confirm, it was a visual glitch only and WiFi was not actually on during that time.

Wifi always-on issue (check battery usage details)

Hi guys.
I noticed in battery details that Wifi looks always-on even if I switch it OFF often for example during last night or yesterday afternoon when I was out for working. As you can see the "scanning always available" is OFF.
Anybody with this problem?

Do you have location services turned on using Wi-Fi?

No, I have "Device only - Use GPS to determine your location"
But from battery chart looks like the wifi is really off ( only 1% of discharge during 7 hours of night sleep). Maybe is only an issue with battery stats indicator.
Might just be a bug. Mine is off and I have anything pertaining to Wi-Fi off that would cause it to sleep or use battery. When I switch back to my Z5P I will check the stats again. Currently it's feel like using my Nexus week lol

Ahahah OK thanks man
There you go gave it a couple hours to see if it is on. Initially it was on then I remembered to turn it off.

As you see in the red circle wifi went off at some point. It would be nice to discover which process is doing that.
Btw it's fun to note (green circle) that wifi seems working even if the phone is off with dead battery.
