Hello
My Swift2X recently updated to Android 8.1 and I now experience terrible battery drain. I've installed GSamBattery and discovered the RCSService is responsible. The phone is losing 10% battery an hour with the CPU always running at 30% unless I switch on battery saver. I can not find any way to switch off RCSService and after some Googling, I note it is broken on other platforms.
Does anyone know how to turn it off without rooting?
Alternatively, is there a ROM (& some instructions) to solve this problem?
Also, the finger print reader stopped working!
Thanks.

Hi guys,
I am having the following problem - after installing some of the common applications on my TP2 (microsoft.net CF 3.5; NoDataInRoaming; cleanRAM; DHR LockDevice; Exidler Hd2ProximityScreenOff; TMS UnInstaller; kPen SafeInboxExtender, HTC FM Radio) its battery began to deplete very fast - in less than 24 hours given that no applications or processes were permanently running (or at least I don't see any) and I haven't changed my usage manner either. Before that the battery lasted the usual 2 (sometimes 3) days. Has anyone else had similar problem?
I will appreciate if anyone gives me an idea why this might be happening.
Thank you in advance!

Is it possible you have cleanRAM setup to frequently run? That could drain the battery. Also possible one of those apps switched wifi on and it is constantly looking for a signal, and before you didn't have it on.
You might also try deactivating the proximity sensor program (the program thread says this happens by running it again). I've not used this program, but I am wondering if it is overriding the phones function to "sleep" (which suspends the phone) and instead just shuts off the screen... That would cause quite a bit of battery drain.
I do wish I could get 2-3 days out of mine. I've never been better than a day, unless I had it suspended all the time.
Hi,
During the past week I have a very strange problem in my Galaxy Nexus.
Battery suddenly started to drain very very quickly.
After 8 hours while I am sleeping in which 3G \ Wireless \ location services\ sync etc. are closed I lose 25-30% battery. (Before this happened I would have lost only 10% in this situation).
Of course while using the device the battery drains even faster.
Luckily I have 2 batteries and use both actively, second battery started act like the first, so the battery is not the problem.
In the battery usage screen there is nothing suspicious.
I installed Wakelock Detector and Better Battery Stats, everything is fine there too.
I have Greenify and I hibernate all the unnecessary applications.
I had a PA rom when it happened, then I switched to SlimKat, same problem. Then again I returned to the PA and the problem isn't vanished.
Between changing ROMs I've erased the phone.
I've also tried to put custom kernels but nothing helped me!
I have no more ideas, can someone please help?
Thank you very much!
I noticed this too, under battery info in settings I found the only culprit to be the latest/updated Google Play Services that kept preventing my GN to enter into deep sleep mode and the only way to fix it was to force close this service.
But then every once in a while it would start running again, so now I've just put a shortcut icon on the home screen to help quickly force close it from app info.
I was wondering why last 2 days maybe my phone's battery was just draining too quick.. I don't have dev edition regular retail and I ran Wakelock Detector and Google Maps turned out to be battery hog.. even samsung push service,even what's app which I never actually used so I will get rid of it.
Greenify without root can't hibernate maps. Is anyone having similar behavior? I did factory reset right after lolipop came out.
Anyone can suggest anything? love the phone but sometimes the battery drain is just making me mad lol
PS. on this screenshot I have not used maps I think within like 2 days,google now was turned off completely as well.
I'm using rooted Nokia XL and had installed InitailL-Rom and was facing the WiFi and WiFi hotspot problem. After I have fixed the hotspot issue on my Nokia XL by flashing stock rom using Nokia Care Suite, everything is working well only except the battery consumption has been awful. And this problem started all of sudden out of nowhere. Before fixing the WiFi issues my battery was working well and right after I fixed it this problem started. I'm not saying that there's some problem with the WiFi-fix. I actually dont understand what the problem is and just asking if somebody could help me either understand it and/or help to solve it, just in case. So here is some brief description of how I'm looking at this problem.
Now, I dont know what could have caused this, but "Cell Standby" contributes about 50% or more of the battery consumption. I re-flashed the rom a several times just to make sure the flash was proper and not dirty.
I looked it up on google and found out that its kind of a problem for many and also that its about how the phone maintains the network and tried the first-hand solutions like keeping my data service off and etc etc.
But even though still the battery would last only for 6 hrs with no usage, 2.5 hrs when playing videos, which I guess are really awful stats. My battery's health is good and I've even tried a ton of recalibration apps and methods for like over the last whole month but nothing seems to work out. My phone dies unexpectedly at around 20-40% of the battery remaining. When I try to turn it back on, it doesnt turn on unless plugged into charging. Immediately after plugging into charging and switching it on; the battery bar is half filled or sometimes even more than that. Any ideas and/or help would be great.
Hi to all,
My android system from yesterday started to drain a lot of juice from my nexus 5X.
I have a non rooted phone and betterbatterystats with permission installed to check the process. I still can't manage what's wrong as there are so many other processes into Android System.
Is there a way to check wich one is causing the drain specifically?
Anybody experienced an high Android System drain this days?
The phone does not even go to deep sleep and it's always a bit warm so something is surely wrong.
Thanks in advance!
Hey,
i had the exact same issue no matter what rom i was on. Stock / debloated / purenexus, anything you can think of, including rooted and non rooted phone and held on the rom for at least 4 to 5 days. EX kernel with saving profiles didn't fix it either. No matter what i did (sync off, 2g network, no gps, no wifi on sleep,google hotword off etc) i had huge standby drain. Now, the culprit in my case was Google Connectivity Services and a qualcomm.com. +something i had to freeze after looking it up. It was a service that automatically switched from mobile data to wifi or vice versa i think, don't have my phones with me atm. Currently running on FEB Stock, rooted only to remove these 2 apps. Could help your case as well.
Cheers
Edit: Found it. It is Qualcomm's CNEService app, at least for me i can confirm that after removing this and Google Connectivity Services, no drain and mobile data/wifi/gps work just great and as intended.
