Problem with wakelocks - Xperia Z1 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello there. I'm trying to get rid of my battery drain for ages, tried to check for wakelocks and I have no idea what is this one in the middle, any help?

One wakelock is from your widget and when it updates generates wakelocks. Second is from stamina you have sign interval so in stamina mode your tel is wakeing up from time to time in intervals. And last is from some android service update. Install wakelock detector and check is this wakelocks are from android process.

I assume first wakelock is from trackID, tried to remove that widget, didn't help.
I don't get the second one, I don't remember any sign interval in stamina..
And yes, i think they are all android processes.

Event log service battery drain

I currently have a problem that "Google services -> event log service" is draining my battery a lot,
I was asking this in another thread about this problem but got told I should ask here in the specific forum for my phone.
I fully charged it during night and at 2:30am I rebooted the phone and unplugged the charger.
Now in the afternoon at 5pm I checked again (haven't used the phone since then) and battery was at 62 %
Wakelock detector is showing an activity of Google-services/Event log service with 1 hour 43 minutes.
Wlan off, 3G on, GPS off, bluetooth etc off.
I disabled all unessesary syncs including google backup/restore, not helping at all.
I checked developer settings for log recording etc.. but everything is off.
It's the international E975 model btw,
I have the same issue. I think i tweaked it too much lol.
Partial wakelocks in BBS indicates EventLogService has been on for 5h.. -_-
Have you done any tweaks to it? I.e: freeze anything from titanium, greenify, etc
This is a result of frozen apps.

hi there
so if i check what apps are frozen and uninstall them, this will get rid of the problem basically, that simple??
It may just cause more problems. The reason the wakelock is even appearing as event log service is because the app is frozen, but causing wakelocks. But wait, didn't we freeze it?.. how can it still be causing wakelocks? Some other system level app is still capable of waking it, so it may or may not be something important.

cheers, actually i have LOTS of wakelock time taken from these 2:
1) Alarm Manager - Android System. this one grows by 5 units every time i unlock the phone and check, NORMAL??
2) Event Log Service - Google Services, this one is a bit more quiet but still growing silently.
Things i have on:
usually sync, but those 2 above grow regardless of sync being on or off, then i have 2 alarms in the calendar, one active and one not and some calendar notifications.
are those responsible? right now my phone is doing around 2% battery use but i notice that it grows very easily, just now i lost 1% in only 25 minutes.
the "awake" graph under battery looks strange.. sometimes it matches screen off (so good), sometimes, it seems to be on, with screen OFF for no reason whatsoever.
any idea?
thanks

[Q] Battery drain problem

Hello guys!!!This is my first post here,it's nice to find you.I experience a serious drain battery problem,it began 2 days agoI am really satisfied with my note 2,for about a year or so it works really great and battery lasts for about 2 days.But suddenly 2 days ago it lasts about 17 hours,with the same usage as before.I see at wakelock detector that the phone almost never gets into idle mode.I unistalled any apps that trigger the phone to wake up,using the wakeup triggers menu of the wakelock detector but nothing changed.The bigest values at cpu wakelock are those of android services with something called nipwakelock on top.I either intsall any new apps during the last 2 days or changed any settings.I turned synchronization off but this didn't work.I am not rooted.Tell me an easy way to uplaod screenshots of the wakelock detector if this is necessary.How can i define which is the problem exactly?

I don't think you have a problem if it lasts 17 hours on the stock battery...

I do because just 2 days ago with the same usage battery lasted for about 2 days.
Install Wakelock Detector and see which app is draining the battery. I had the same issue and Google+ image upload feature was keeping the phone alive almost half of the time. I had to force close and then uninstall/reinstall to resolve the issue. (Even though I had the option install only on wifi)

I have already installed it.How will i see which app is draining the battery?Through cpu wakelock menu?There as i said at my first post android services ''occupy'' cpu with most of the time,about 50 minutes and nip wake lock at android services rums most of the time.How will i see which application causes this?Other than android services facebook and facebook messenger rum about 2 minutes with an aproximately x240 times next to them i don't know what this is.I unistalled them both yesterday but this didn't solve the problem.
I unistalled a lot of applications and deactivated some in built applications.Today battery lasted for 1 day and 14 hours!!!Hope this is not sth temporal

[Q] Severe battery drain and miscalibration

Hello! I've been lurking around trying to solve my battery drain issue for two days without success. I have a d2att with severe battery drain, where battery would last for around 2 hrs MAX before shutting down at 40%. This was apparently an issue before (my brother was using it) when it was on stock unrooted 4.3. I installed Carbon 4.4.4 to look for improvements.
Symptoms:
Rapid battery decrease during use
Shutoff at 40% (when rebooting it would show 0%, when charging it will start at 40%)
Constant wake (I believe from the systemupdate wakelock that is unstoppable)
Feels warm during short times of use, cool when standby
Attempts to fix:
Using GSAM to monitor battery drain (just installed Betterbatterystats, will update with that info later)
Installed MyAndroid Tools and Disable service to stop systemupdate and checkin services
Autoruns to stop all systemupdateservice receivers
Dalvik cache wipe to try to fix the 40% shutoff
Privacy guard to turn off keep awake for Google play services and Android system
Privacy guard to turn off location for GNow
Have not done:
Replace battery (just ordered one that's coming in two days)
Clearing batt stats, as apparently that doesn't help
Factory reset, as it's a pain to setup again (Should this be next?)
Greenify
Xposed
I am just generally confused at this point at whether systemupdate service is turned on or off, or how to solve that, or if that is even the main problem, and what my next steps should be. I'm not an expert and can only understand half of what's going on, so any advice is greatly appreciated!
*Update: It seems that the phone is able to go to deep sleep (~50% of the time). When I use it just 5 minutes for texting, the battery can drop 5%. After reading from another thread, I re-enabled systemupdate services from Disable Services/My Android tools to see if that would solve the problem, and it looks like it is not hogging wakelock anymore; however it does revert on boot, similar to this: forum.cyanogenmod(.)org/topic/96459-systemupdateservice-wakelock-on-cm11-m7-massive-battery-drain/
Update 2: I flashed Liquidsmooth 3.1 stable instead. This time I used autoruns manager and wakelock blocker (included in liquidsmooth settings) to disable the services, but systemupdate service still manages to run, so I have to disable the block to somehow make it stop with every boot. Once that is fixed, deep sleep functions normally, but now the new problem is that Chrome browser app seems to be stuck in an AudioMix wakelock. I uninstalled Chrome updates and this seems to have fixed that issue, however battery drain is still severe (5%/2min) during active phone use. No application stands out in constant wakelock anymore, so I'm suspecting it may be the battery itself? I will switch to a new battery tomorrow to verify.
Update 3: Well since no one bothered to help, I will just post this for future reference as a log, since I solved the last part by the battery switch to an Anker battery. The phone still gets hot, and I still have to manually deactivate systemupdate service on every reboot, but now it runs for "normal" times 5-6hrs (heavy use).
To be honest, it sounds like you had a failing battery. It happens.

theres an xposed app called amplify that helps to block some wakelocks , startups and alarms. it might help.

Serious battery drain issues

First of all i have tried factory reset. Im using elementalx kernel on android 4.4.4. I don't remember my custom rom's name but it was cleaner version of stock. No im not going to update to 5.0. I have tried disable some wakelocks from google play services and disabled all possible syncs. But Google keeps enabling sync for location reporting and History reporting even though i have disabled it many times! Evert single time im connected to wifi or any other way to net it soon gets enabled and massively drains battery! 70% of battery had drained in 3 hours! I hadn't even touched my device on that time. I'm sure there is way to fix this but i don't know how. I have searched everywhere but nothing worked.
Edit:
Used Wakelock Detector and found out systemupdateservice and some alarm thing are on top of list. Appereantly there is some sort of bug with systemupdateservice so its always disabled. I enabled it because thats supposed to fix it so now let's wait if its the cause of problems.

Bluetooth battery drain present on latest OTA build, has been a problem for awhile.

I don't want to go through the whole process of wiping the phone and changing rom or permroot, is there a way for me to troubleshoot the problem of bluetooth drain screen off? Ive uninstalled every app I can and had wakelock detector working at one point... is there a way to get root temporarily so I can use betterbatterystats and figure out what is draining the battery screen off?
yesterday I removed and readded the google account since wakelock dectector said google services was waking a lot, so far today no bluetooth in battery use list and seems better will monitor.
