I rooted my defy firware 2.1 and now it keeps rebooting everytime I run an app which uses gps.
Help please.

Does this also happen if you turn the *data* connections off?
The Defy 2.1 firmware has a known bug that will cause it to reboot if:
- The Signal is weak
- AND it tries to do data transfer at the same time.
So GPS itself might not be the problem, but the application (like google maps) doing data transfer while you are in a spot with a bad mobile signal.
This bug can be *really* annoying (in fact: I had my defy reboot twice within the first hour) and people suggest to install 'Shutupbatterysaver' to fix the problem (See: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=956659).
Another way to fix it is to upgrade to one of the 2.2 SBFs (that's what i did). I'm running the -155 ROM and it has been much more stabler than the 2.1-stock version.
Thanks for your help.

that seems to be the problem: defy does not reboot when data is off when I am using gps.
I tried shutupbatterysaver but it does not solve issue.
is there any other solution without upgrading rom?
thx.

I sent back the phone to motorola. The problem seems to be a common and known problem: gps hardware problem with motorola defy.

and it will change the phone? or whut?
i have the exact same problem.
Hi Just updated the firmware to 4.1.2 kernel 3.0.31-1000653 and firstlt can see any changes in the new update and secondly the battery is draining much much faster than before. Can I get the previous version back? or factory reset and back up? Thanks for any help.
I don't have the answer to your question but I thought I would share my experience with the update to 4.1.2 I received a few months back. I also noticed a faster battery drain. However, on investigation, I found that it was something called gpsd using the extra juice. This was samsungs find-your-phone-service-thingy that I had been testing.
I switched it off and the battery problem vanished.
Try to find out what is causing the problem before you try to fix it.
Good luck

Hi Thanks for your help. Lets see if it is under "Location Services" and maybe it is "Location and Google search" ??. I cant see anywhee else it could be that is pulling the juice out of the battery!!. Have you noticed any changes in the the firmware ? I can't see any changes at all......beats me lol. All the best and thanks.
I experienced the same issue after a firmware upgrade, and I fixed the problem by performing a factory restore.
Getting rid of it.

I got rid of the find-my-phone service by opting out. If you go to settings-security-remote control and log in to your Samsung account you should then find and option to switch it of. If it's not on you will need to find another suspect
Good luck.
Thanks to All
Thanks to all you guys for your help. What I did was a factory reset as one user suggested and the battery life is now back to normal. Cant figure out why they produce a firmeware that drains the battey?. Now I have to send it to Samsung under the warranty as when I insert the micro sim card it shows as "No Sim Card" if I wedge a slice of thin carton above the sim card and inside the slot pushing the sim card down harder onto the pins below it works OK, so is needs a new sim card tray or the shop has not cut the micro sim properly !. Again thanks for you help.

It kept my phone "awake"; after disabling this option, my phone "sleeps" properly again!
In the screenshot you can see exactly where I disabled this option!
No deep sleep when charging. Always 1600 in cpu spy when charging
Hi guys!
I switched to the Note 2 from my S3 since 2 days. But I was wondering why it is very very hot when I charged it. So I installed cpu spy to check the problem. When I didn't use the phone it was going quickly in deep sleep but when I charged it, it was alawys in 1600. I have already reseted it 2 times and now I have no apps installed. So please can you help me. Thanks in advance.
Ps: I didn't rooted it and I have the latest XXDMB6
After upgraded to Android 6.0, the battery drain apparently is much higher. Especially while I am sleeping at night, I found the battery might go down to 2-7% from 50%. I have no idea if it is caused by the new Android 6.0 or any new app I installed. Can someone advise me how to ascertain it and fix it. Thanks!

Perhaps you could try the app "Wakelock detector free" to see what applications are causing your trouble.
It's a common issue that's been present since lollipop...
It's probably Google Play services...
Go in Settings/privacy and search for google framework and play services and block them from starting on boot and autostarting.
Next thing you want to do is of course shut down WiFi/bluetooth/NFC or any other connection (just put it in airplane mode).
Another thing you want to do is downloading the Greenify app from the play store and hibernate EVERYTHING but the messaging apps (otherwise you won't receive any message.)

There is no privacy under Settings. Can you provide greater detail how to get into privacy. Thanks!

This issue is most of the time caused by fast dormancy.
Just disable it and u will be fine
Go to the hidden menu, type *#546368#*815# (replace 815 with ur model number, so 812 if u have the 812 model etc)
Then go to field test>Modem settings>PDP setting>0 and sellect fast dormancy off.
Reboot phone and you should be fine.
Report back, i'm kinda curious

Dunno what it should be under MM but 2-5% under L for 12 hours is normal. That's only 10% per day.

Do this only after you have determined your network does not support fast dormancy. If it does and you disable it you will get more drain.
fast dormancy only applies to 3G. if you're on other G's and not connected to data it won't be doing anything.

Depends on what your sim settings are. Do you select 2/3/4g ?
In that case if the network signal is weak it will switch to 3g. Now if your 3G network does not support fast dormancy, then disabling it in the hidden menu will help. The problem with hidden menu settings is they dont stick after a reboot. So i suppose you need root to make them permanent.
Hello everyone!
I don't know why, but since last week the battery drains faster than it has before. There is no apparent reason for it. There is only one anomaly, one process that seems to use a lot of the cellular network, and that is the WhatsApp...
How can I examine this further on an unrooted phone??
Thx in advanced !
If the cellular network at your place is weak, your phone will use more power energy to maintain network connection. In such case, I think you'd better install the app named Greenify to stop Whatsapp from background running.

That's the thing... It's not weak. It just drains the battery more than it had before for some unknown and not apparent reason at all.
i was having a problem like that, i turned up mobile data and using only whatsapp, with a big battery drain, the solution for me was disable fast telephony from the hidden menu in the telephone and now the problem is gone
I guess "fast telephony" = "fast dormancy", right?

Let us know if it works.
Disabling fast dormancy is ok if your carrier does not implement it otherwise if they do you want it on. Given your problem happened suddenly i doubt that is the reason.
When people have problems with whats app. clear cache or failing that, reinstalling the app has fixed it.

Well, it doesn't seem to have any effect on the usage of mobile data of the WhatsApp app...
Also clearing the cache and uninstalling and reinstalling the app didn't have the desired effect.
Any other solutions?
@spartan do you have any ideas ?
Dears,
On my op3, which is running with Experience OS and Blue spark Kernel, always the Whats app coming on top of the battery stats even though I opened it less time. It is showing that "Mobile Radio Active" is enabled for hours. I can not switch off the Data while the screen off because it may delay the notifications. I understood that the modem is not disconnecting from data even if the app become not in foreground stage. What ever the app I used for data restriction reduced the Deep sleep time since it were keeping alive in the back end to restrict the data service. Is there any solution to get rid the Mobile Radio Active bug.
No there isn't, it is a known thing since Android Lollipop.

OOOOPSSS!!!! i have cleared all other battery draining issues using various methods. But this is hectic.
Why google is not taking care about this since it is a serious bug? But I think not everyone facing this issue. Some of them are getting good battery backup without having mobile radio active issue.

With Whatsapp this is expected. All of Facebooks apps are known to be terrible battery drainers. It is part of the reason that it never took off in the states. Also anything like that will always keep the radio active. It is the nature of the app. As long as you use it then you will get battery drain.

But it is a serious bug, isn't it Bro? I am worried why the google devs not showing much interest to resolve this battery killing issue.... I think there was an xposed module available in Lollipop or marshmallow to solve this problem. But nothing available in Nougat. feeling helpless bro

It's nothing Google can do. It is Facebook. The apps is badly coded just like their main app and messenger. As long as you rely on it for messaging (not sure why people do) then you will have to deal with it.

No bro, I don't think it is because of Facebook. I am not using facebook at all. But me too having the issue. I think it is clearly a mobile data modem issue. Mobile radio is not disconnecting even after android system closed the foreground app. Only android devs can resolve it.

You miss the fact that whatsapp is a facebook app. Owned and written by facebook.
If mobile data disconnects then you would not get notified. Data is how that app works.
If you do some research you will find this to be true.
Again this is how messaging apps work. It doesnt seem like you have alot of experience in mobile OS programming.
My advice would be to use a different app like Telegram. This is what most of the world uses. As to whats app is mainly used in developing countries but not much outside of them.

Yes but if you look closely he is not using the device. And to be honest, I don't think it's real. I have never seen android display something when there is no usage like for the GPS in that screen shot.
I know it can last for days without using it as that is what happens to my device on the weekends. I unplug it sat morning and only use it when someone calls me and I don't have to plug it back in until Monday morning. Mind you that is really not using the phone much at all.
it has got no fix yet. May be this goes away in Oreo.
Sorry if someone has already pointed this before.. But have u tried turning the data saver mode on?
Once ON, make sure you disable unlimited data for Google play services and whatsapp.. (in settings, app, data usage)
I tried it and somehow it worked
