Poor battery life all of а sudden. - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

Rooted wifi version with slimkat rom and Franco kernel. Guys hello, so I have bought nexus December. First months okay. All is fine but recently it got strange in battery department. I can barely squeeze 4 hours of screen time. I got everything in terms of background apps running. No drops of the tablet or hits or anything. Brightness is at 15/20 percent all time. Should I blame the rom?Should I flash other rom or go to default software and return it since it's under warranty. I never read any complains bout my problem over Internet so I'm asking here. Before games would run 4/5 hours screen time now 2 hours max and no matter what I do battery just drops steadily. I ve done reset day ago. No wake locks, no background apps running iv been and know this scenarios.
P. S
sorry for English

I posted a similar problem in the general section, hopefully 4.4.3 will help with this, but if its just you and me, then maybe its slimkat, cus thats what im running also....

Do you have the deb or the flo?
&
What are you using to identify which apps are running in the background (i.e. an app)?
If it's not a rogue application or wakelock, I would probably try flashing a different kernel and test it out for a couple days. If your problem persists, I would flash stock and use it for a week. I always recommend flashing to stock so you can get a reliable baseline to compare it too. If you are on stock and still exhibit the same problem, I would play the warranty card.
That's at least what I would do.

[Q] battery drain problem JB back to stock.

i updated to jellybean LI8 from stock t999 LH2 version, but because of super heavy battery drain i flashed it back to LH2 thru odin.
However i still get same heavy battery drain. i use up 10% every 1 hr just with screen on. before i used up about 3~5% for 1 hr.
i was able to get about 14~16hrs with normal use before, but now i dont think i can even get 10hrs.
it seems that the sim card area gets hot whenever the screen is on, and cools down when off. before flashing my phone was never heated
unless i was playing heavy graphic games..is there a way to completely flash the system files? or to fix this problem...pls help. thanks
Your numbers don't make sense. Need a screenshot.
I also observe the battery drain.

Give it a few full charge/discharge cycles to work itself out.
How did you update to jb? How did you revert to ics? Custom roms, otas or full firmwares?

yes the screen % is fine so i dont know where its draining the battery...
i think something wrong with system file because my phone really didnt get warm just from having the screen on.
is the method i reverted to ics correct? or is there another way to completly reset/overwrite my phone back to stock?
If your phone is working, your method wasn't incorrect. If you flashed the stock firmware through Odin, that's as virgin as it gets.
Battery Info and KakaoTalk are obvious culprits. Tell me about your wifi situation. Are you connected to a wifi network?
yeah usually i leave wifi and kakao talk on most of the day but it doesnt drain battery this fast...it just messed it up after the jellybean update., it was 100% this morning, 4 hours and now i got 60%. usually i would probably still have around 85%+
I'm in xquizit v26 and observed that I'm not getting a deep sleep and the battery drain in less than 5 hours. I reflash the rom with full wipe and still have the same issue. I step back and investigate what cause this problem. It seems that when I flashed the kitchen v6 with open vpn cause not to have a deep sleep. With out the open vpn I was able to get a deep sleep. On the first cycle I was able to get the 15hrs battery life. I will continue to observe this because the battery behavior can only be observed after 3 days.
I tried to post this in the ROM section but XDA wont allow it because I only have less than 10 post.

You should pm this to wildchld. As far as i can remember this is the first ive heard of it and maybe the same for others.
Search the thread first to see if anyone else has reported. If not or if you think you have information to add shoot him a quick pm.
If you dont want to let me know and ill get the info to him so we can test it out.

If you can go without, try uninstalling those two apps and see if it settles at all. Also get cpuspy to see how often the phone goes into deep sleep.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
okay so i jus instaled the cpuspy and saw that theres a lot of deepsleep so i guess theres no problem..?
and i think its not the app but the thing with screen. whenever the screen turns on, it gets hot and the batt uses alot..
i tried re-flashing using odin while ago but still the same.
I would suggest flashing wildchlds XquiziT or DJintrigues Frosty JB. They both have done very good jobs at getting more out of your battery while still remaining stable. Being on the full stock leak i doubt you will easily find a way to acceptable battery life. At full stock i kind of remember LI8 being one of the worst for battery.
There are actually multiple causes, some depend on how you use the phone.
Another thing you can do to help hunt it down is get Better Battery Stats.
Also in Settings > Dev Options check show cpu usage and itll tell you what processes are using the processor in real time. You will likely see 2 or more that seem to stay at the top of the list.

i checked the XquiziT's ROM and i think lots of people are saying the battery problem was solved so mayb ill try it with this one, however when i went over the posts it seemd that theres prob with the kitchen? thingy and they took it down. is it possible to jus flash the XquiziT Rom without the kitchen features?
Yes you can flash rom without kitchen. Hes actually working on a new release hoping for today I believe.
Kitchen was taken down due to possible bricks when using wallet and mobile odin.
Also, battery problems are not 100% solved in either rom but are close!

hey thanks for the replys...
ive tried to flash the v26 through recovery boot menu but it says E:verification error. i think its because i flashed back stock by odin, how can i solv this problem?
Have you reinstalled twrp or cwm? Stock recovery wont flash that.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Remove the battery for 5 min...and then check for the drain. Mine fixed itself up this way.
okay so i installed twrp and did the install but still same prob with the heating battery lose. i will try few more wipeout+install and the battery takeout thing too and post up

Lag after a day

So why does my phone start to lag after a day. No matter what ROM or kernel I am on, after about 20 hours my phone starts to lag. If I restart my phone all is good. Does anyone have an explanation? Is this a great 4.2.2 feature? This wasn't happening before that.

Is that even pure stock? There are several posts on this already. There isn't a genuine solution but some have suggested some ways to minimize lag on 4.2.2.

Check your memory usage. I have this problem too - and it seems like my memory if full. Try to see what services run in the background and maybe you can stop some of them. Also look at 'Greenify' - it is an app that stops background processing for apps you don't want hanging in the background. It requires root, though.
do you use twrp? i had that problem until someone mentioned that twrp doesnt wipe completely and used cmw.

would it be too much of apps running at the background and causing it lag?
I'm reading about this issue more and more everyday ... one solution i saw was that to install "Clean master" from Play store and clear cache with that to minimize lag i believe it only affects custom roms and not stock based roms :/

[Q] unecplained juice loss

Hi,
I had the SE Arc S for 7 months now, overall a nice device, but what annoys me is the battery. I'm using CM9.1 (dunno if that's important) and at night with WiFi, mobile data, gps and data sync. off (according to batt. drain analyzer) it loses 7% (and some nights even 9%) per hour. I deleted G Maps and Beautiful widgets, but that didn't work. I installed watchdog, but that won't list all running apps (BetterBatteryStats reports A LOT more). Any idea what causes this?
Is Facebook app installed?

Had a similar problem with CM10. Never came up before, don't know why it cropped up now. Once instance, had as much as a 40% battery loss overnight. Wi-Fi off, Bluetooth off, Data off. Nothing discernible to drain the battery. Thought the kernel might be at fault, so switched kernels, yet no resolution to the issue. The battery kept winding down, as if something were sucking its life out. Reflashed the ROM, things went stable for a day or two, but then the problem resurfaced. Switched over to ICS, and the problem has, since, gone. Wouldn't want to point the finger at CM (in fact, there are many users using it without any problems), but would love to have some idea as to what the problem might've been. Was really enjoying Jelly Bean; nice and smooth. Shame this problem had to surface.
I have ICS (android 4.0.4),am considering Pac ROM, to circumvent this problem, will that help, any experience?
oow, confused here, is ICS a rom like CM9.1?
Still, wil ditching CM9.1 in favor of PacROM help you think?
ICS = ice cream sandwich, its android v4.
No idea since ive never used pacman but have you reverted to stock?
Sent from my Xperia Arc S using xda premium
Try to reinstall the rom, but first make a backup of your apps using Titanum Backup, or flash another kernel, or change your rom.

Bad battery drain issuse

I had a very similar issue with Cyanogenmod with the Chomp messaging app installed. Uninstalling it solved my problem. Do you have this installed, by any chance? If you go to Settings --> Battery, what do you see sucking up the most power?
I dont have chomp installed, and its showing my screen is taking most the power. The drain even happens when my screens off so i dunno lol. i may just buy a new battery to see if that helps, thanks for the reply though!

I feel your pain. Ive had this problem since the inititial stock ICS update though, not when i switched to cyanogenmod. Long story short, I tried just about every rom and kernel available to no avail.
Turns out the problem was my phone wouldnt deep sleep for very long, even when idle for hours. I reverted back to stock GB 2.3.6 and that seemed to work. I left my phone idle for about 10 hours (During the night and morning) and it only drained 16%. After calibrating the battery it lasted even longer. I know you hate stock, so heres another possible cause/fix: The process mediaserver seems to be draining plenty of peoples batteries. I found the attached .apk somewhere on XDA and its supposed to kill mediaserver and keep it from restarting. I havent tried this personally but it appears to work for other people.
If the kms app doesnt work, take a quick look and see if your phone isnt liking nap time-- If thats your problem, here is the link for stock GB (Rooted, of course). The download contains Odin and the .tar file you need to flash. Dont worry about wiping your data or anything. Just go into download mode and let odin do its work.
Good luck
--Edit--
Found a great ICS rom based on el29 so it will deep sleep. Called The Blu Kuban, I'll post link when I'm home. Fixed my issues and then some, definitely worth trying. Use the Nova launcher not Apex. Much better.

Did some research and the Virgin Mobile model is virtually identical to sprints so those roms will work. The carrier wont know the difference (and the phone either) so the network should be fine. Let me know if the kms worked and/or if u installed a custom rom.

Other than disable the bloatware (fitness, milk, ant, etc.) I want to say her phone is so blazing fast I cannot even comprehend why it is so fast compared to mine. I have factory reset mine ( hers no) but that thing is what all phones should be like..
Q: On an Android system does it have something like a defrag like computers? Why would hers be faster than mine? Ideas?

I'm pretty sure the reason is becuase you have a lot more apps on your phone, starting with a different launcher.
I don't know why Android does this (or is it the app developers causing it?)...but a lot of apps load into memory whether you run them or not. Less memory available = slower performance. This is why I was disappointed when the Note 4 came with 3GB instead of 4GB of memory.
I have a lot of apps on my phone, and especially if multitasking it is quite laggy (for example, when I go for a walk, I'll be playing music through BT, and have MyTracks running to track the walk. If a text comes in, it has a very long lag before it opens).
This is the reason I'll likely be replacing my Note 4 with something else soon.
Well, I so have a TMobile N4 on the way. Plan to root, and install a KK ROM. Been researching on the TM Dev site, and there appears to be a great one there. Everybody touts the speed and battery performance.
That being said, the topic of 5.1.1 came up. One of the folks there had just got the T3 version of the N4 wiht 5.1.1, and he said as far as he is concerned, no ROM necessary. Says it flies. No comparison.
So, hopefully, 5.1.1 will be here on AT&T before long.
I switched back to stock launcher, removed a few weather widgets and a few less used apps and now mine flies.
I guess we have been lucky, we have never experienced any battery issues or any other things spoken of during this 5.0.1 update.
The only issue we have ever had is the issue with wifi vs 4G LTE. When you reach an area with wifi it sees the signal, wont connect due to not having the pw and the phone becomes useless unless wifi is turned off or you leave the area. Still waiting on speedify to come through with its beta.

I decided to try the stock launcher after reading your post. It is hard to believe how much faster it is. I miss the customization but love the extra performance. Hope I can figure out why the stock launcher keeps crashing once in a while.

After reading this, I thought I'd give it a try. Jeebus! Okay, so maybe the problem is more Nova Launcher than my actual Note. The downside is, I love Nova! I use the gestures and such constantly. And my phone stays in landscape position all day. Has anyone had success with other launchers?

Yeah, after an hour of using TW, the recent apps lag was back. Switched back to Nova, no lag. For a few minutes. So much for that. Does anyone know exactly what the nature of the "memory leak" in 5.0.1 is? This must be related somehow.

Just curious, for both of you. I do not have my power saving mode turned on. There is a tab there that restricts cpu performance if its on.
JFYI...This past week I got a T-Mobile Note 4. Rooted it, installed a 5.1.1. ROM, and it is much faster. I too use Nova Launcher.
Battery is great too. I typically do an overnight / screen off test to get a general feeling of battery performance.
My AT&T Note 4 overnight with power saving off, wifi on, BT on, used just under 5% / hour. The TM one with same conditions lastnight used .73% / Hour. Yes...less than 1% / hour. I'm seeing quotes over in the ROM thread of 5-6 hours SOT.
I was ready to ditch the Note 4. Not now.
