Powerservicemanager kernel wakelock

I'm running the latest version of Ultimatum by howtomen. I just got my gorilla gadgets extended battery and I've gotten over 40 hours. The phone has been through two nights and has only been in deep sleep for 4.5 hours. I'm showing a power service manager wake lock and can't find anything about it in search. Any help would be appreciated.

What are you using to examine wake locks?
PowerManagerService corresponds to anything and everything that generates a partial wakelock, so if you have a list of those, that's where to look.

I'm using better battery stats. I'm new to o/c'ing and uv'ing so I got BBS. I'll check out partials

Looks like *sync*_com.sec.android.gallery3d.picasa.content provider was on for 34 of the 40 hours

That's a common wake lock with the stock gallery trying to sync with Picasa. I froze Picasa with titanium backup and it never happened again.

Here is a screenshot of my partial wake locks. Can you see anything else I need to freeze and or change to get my phone to deep sleep more at night or just to perform better all around?

I am seeing the same thing. That process kept my phone "awake" for two hours while the screen was off. Which app/process did you freeze to fix this? Was is "PicasaUploader" ?
If you just disable Picasa album syncing in your Settings|Accounts|Google|<account_name> will that have the same affect?

Try freezing picasa uploader. I currently have the gallery frozen and I am using the aosp gallery.

I actually started with disabling the Picasa synchronization on my Google accounts and that seems to have stopped the problem. I think the issue actually came from the fact that one of the accounts I have got stuck while trying to synchronize with Picasa. Since its account that I don't actually upload photos to, it didn't matter anyway if I disabled the synchronization.
Now my phone shows that it goes into a deep sleep for more than 2/3 of the time that the screen is off. That is a lot better than being awake 100 percent of the time.

I used Settings|Accounts|Google|<account_name> . I actually disabled uploading from all 5 google accounts I have on my phone because I use dropbox to synch my photos back to my pc.
See attached screenshot. And yes, it was -2 F this morning when I took the screenshot.....

turn off picasa
blog.gadgethelpline.com/remove-unwanted-picasa-albums-samsung-galaxy-siii/
picasa sync was using 87% of my battery, followed these instructions to turn it off and remove photos.

I deleted mine with TB just to be safe.

Unimprovements

Anyone else notice a worsened battery after the update? And is there anyway to get dolby back while watching videos?

Question 1, No. Question 2, No.
Have you rooted and unlocked?
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda premium

Do you have Google Now active? I bet that is where the drain is coming from. Im seeing the same thing.

No I haven't rooted yet and I don't plan on unlocking and yes I have it active I don't want to turn it off though guess I'll have to suffer the consequence

Rooting and unlocking is huge if you want battery improvements. Removing apps such as google+ will help with battery drain and the ROMs we have out now also have scripts and other battery enhancements.

My battery seems to have gone down to. I might do a factory reset to try and fix it. That helped before. Also. If you look at my attached pic, your notice "peaks" in the graph. No I am not plugging into anything and yet I gain a percent here and there during the day. Anyone get this?
Also, with that pic, I don't have the bars under it showing screen on, awake times, WiFi on, charging or signal. How can I get these back? They are very useful pieces of info.
Sorry didn't mean to take over a thread. This seemed like a logical thread to post with.

Noticed the same thing. Kind of weird. Wonder if it's adjusting to try to give a more accurate prediction of battery level?

Can I just uninstall Google+ once I'm rooted?

Once you're rooted AND unlocked. You can't uninstall system apps until unlocked or you'll get a security error.

I have seen those peaks. The other day I restarted and the percentage in my notification bar changed by 3% immediately after the reboot. That said, I easily got 12 hours over the weekend on a single charge with decent usage.

Still looking in to a workaround. No promises.

Battery life for me seems fine. Only thing for me is that after the update I've been getting bad service. Can't download anything from play store unless on WiFi. Says I have 3g but downloads are stuck at 0%

In maps, you can go into settings/locations, and uncheck all that stuff that lets google monitor your location while you're phone sleeps, this resolved my maps wake lock issue, not sure about the SMS one.

Tap the little orange icon to the right. It will take you to the browser and explain what power manager is. It's likely due to push notifications. You can check what's doing this under partial wakelocks.

Do you have active monitoring enabled in better battery stats? When I had that turned on, that was giving me the most wakelocks due to power manager service.

How ironic would it be if Better Battery Stats was the cause of worse battery life lol... but anyways I did what Luigi suggested and got this:

BBS doesn't consume much battery at all compared to others, unless of course if you have the app actively monitoring but the option should be Unchecked by default.
Also, as the page to the link states, in order to resolve any of the wakelocks causing the PowerManagerService issue you must "Use "Partial Wakelocks" to drill down the applications / services causing wakelocks".

Randomly getting Horrible battery drain from sensors.qcom

So for some odd reason in getting HORRIBLE battery drain. Literally lost 40% in 35minutes. It happened out of nowhere and idk what to do. I disabled GPS, deleted all the apps that I recently downloaded. It's still happening and was wondering if anyone else is suffering from this.

I get this, i'm still trying to see what's causing it but i've found 2 things:
- It stops when i'm not connected to wifi
- Its a known kitkat bug
Hope somebody can tell me what os process is calling this process but you'll get a lot of discussions if you google sensors.qcom drain.

Yeah I did Google and did see quite a few discussions on it. I have been through many phones and this is the first one that has a major flaw in regards to wake lock. I reduced the wake locks by disabling Google Now but I use that daily and can't love without it. I don't know what to do at this point.

That was some months ago, didnt happened again, but still, very weird...

Sent from my C6502 using Instagram

facing unusual battery activity too.
there is something weird going on with the battery after updating to .283 . i tried to investigate this with the help of wakelock detector and apperars myxperia and update center are eating up lot of battery. froze them and so far so good.

Froze those as well and still massive battery drain. Checked the battery usage and it seems the OS is the culprit. Any suggestions?

help to you

if you flash rom for several item ..........you can get a battery calibration app and calibrate your battery.

Downloaded that app and ran it. Still testing. Will keep the thread updated with any abnormalities.

Download BetterBatteryStats (there's a free version on XDA)
You can get a decent amount of information regarding wakelocks, partial wakelocks, alarms, etc..
There's also the possibility that your battery could by dying, if you want to know for sure either use something like BBS or reflash/reset to factory.
