[Q] android process consuming excessive cpu - Galaxy Tab 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Ive noticed this process com.android.googleUpdate and subprocess pvR_timewQ uses a lot of cpu (around 50%) idle. Ive tried stopped or killed the process without success. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks

defrost problems

Hello,
I find things very funny on my phone let me describe. This happens on both opendesire 4.0.25 and defrost 4.9 . I am downloading defrost 4.7 now to see if the problem solves. This is it, my phone clock speed is always at 998MHZ and the CPU usage is always at 100% . I realised that is why my phone always got hot and the battery drains fast. I hope someone could give me a solution, or is it the new kernal that is giving the problems?
Thank you.
On Defrost you can try a different kernel directly from the Defrost setup.
I am now using HAVS 1113and the phone works great and the battery life has increased significally
Thank you for your reply
but that is not the problem. This is, my CPU usage is always at 100% (checked with many apps) also the CPU setting is ondemand which means my usage being at 100%, makes the clockspeed always at 998. The process that took up 76% of the CPU was named android.process.media or something like that. Anyone knows what it means and what I am supposed to do now? How am I to disable the process and what process is that? How can I disable it?
Thank you and I'm hoping for more replys its quite upsetting to have your processor running high all the time
Sounds like a background app is stopping the Desire going into a sleep state...you might have to reset the phone and add 1 app at a time to see what it is...
install Android System Info on your Desire and take a look at the tasks list.
There press the menu button to sort the list by CPU load.
The total CPU load should be around 10%, which gets consumed by the Android System Info process itself, and a small amount by Android System Info.

[Q] StabilityTest results?

Hi! I have rooted my Defy (Thank God it went well), installed SetVsel, and of course StabilityTest. Now my Defy is under 300/17, 600/33, 1050/50 at 82% (as suggested by MotodefyUser), and I've been testing several settings already, but how do you know if the settings pass the test(s)? It just keeps going and going. Longest I've tested it was to 20 minutes, and 14 successful core runs and 106 successful RAM runs have already been observed.
Enough is a judgement for each user. The test is just what it is - it loads the CPU up and looks for unexpected results. If it crashes or throws an error then you know there's a problem.
However, I have tended to find that I can run stabilitytest ok, but I will get a crash or reboot the moment that I leave setvsel and go back into the system. In otherwords, stabilitytest will keep working down to a lower voltage level than works in real life.
I ended up on 300/16 and 1000/52. I never bothered tuning 600 particularly because according to CPUspy my device spends effectively no time there (out of current uptime of 174 hours, only 1 hour was spent at 600MHz).
I suggest using your settings for a few days to satisfy yourself that they are genuinely stable.
And as I've sayed that every CPU is diffrend so same settings may not works for all, you just need to found your own stability But Im not saying that my settings couldn't work for you

Constantly awake

Hi guys,
My phone is constantly "awake" despite rarely even turning on the screen.
Would you know what could be causing this?
I'm currently running Caulkins rom and whatever kernel it came with.
My battery life is ~15 hours so I dont think it's affecting my battery too much.
Either way, is there an app that can tell me whats causing the drain?
First of all, to see if your CPU is sleeping properly when the screen is off, download CPU spy… it is an app that gives you total time the CPU has spent in each scaling frequency available.
Then download watchdog, this app tells you which programs are polling the CPU for usage.
Then download “better battery stats”.. this app tells you if there are wakelocks.
With those 3 apps running at the same time, you will find out any abnormalities in your system caused by applications.
Side note – disregard info that either of the apps report about each other (obviously)

[Q] gun bros unreliable

Im becoming just way too frustrated... fell in love with this game but my problem is that it doesnt work consistantly. Sometimes i open the application and its blazing fast... no lag on the home screens or even ingame at the hardest levels... other times i find it to be extremely laggy or even keeps getting stuck at the loading screen. Ive tried messing up with the cpu speeds and killing other tasks and i found absolutely no correlation between number of tasks running or the CPU clock speed used. Even got it blazing fast once while underclocked... and othertimes when its on performance setting... it struggles to go through the home screens of the game....
Does any one know why this sort of inconsistency is happening? Can I fix it?
( btw if you think it might be from some unexpected apps hogging up the CPU, ive already monitored my CPU usage and removed the one app that used to do that. now whenever im on my home screen ( golauncher) my cpu usage is consistantly 25% or less )
would greatly appreciate any input. thanks guys

[Q] Qmiproxy? What is it?

Hi,
I've been running Frosty v1 (jelly bean ) along with the newest version of kt747 kernel...
I underclocked the voltage a bit, and I left it for idle overnight yesterday... and when I woke up the system was extremely laggy. So being the intrigued person, I opened up the cpu tab and saw that the process "qmiproxy" was using most of the cpu power (Ktweaker said that cpu speed continuously remained at 1890 Mhz, the highest I set it at.
I've noticed something like it happen before... it would cause some apps to FC but this is the first time I opened up the cpu tab..
Does anyone know what the qmproxy process is? I restarted and everything seems fast again, but maybe after a few hours it'll become sow again.
Thanks for your response!
