I have my phone running 99.6% of the time in spare parts and it shows android system as the culprit holding a partial wakelock.
so my question is, how do i fix this? i've tried a factory reset three times, am updated to 1.21 ota and have slowly started to reintegrate apps but it always starts again and always after a different app.
i'm getting pretty frustrated anyone got any ideas?
UPDATE In my case it was network time abusing wireless location service that was causing the problem and hence the reason a factory reset didnt solve it, i switched off network time and voila!
just to clarify, no live wallpapers, and phone is in airplane mode to avoid any data usage drainig the battery.
i have got beautiful widgets homescreen small clock and pure cal widget installed at the moment but even when i uninstall them it doesnt fix it, also im running launcher pro 0.4.2 but also had the problem when i reverted to sense.
and i have read every other thread here about battery life that i could find but no-one seems to have this problemo
anyone with any advice on why my phone wont sleep?
A long shot, but go in to Mobile Settings and untick Enable always-on mobile data.

ok cool, giving that i try now but i had been leaving it in airplane mode to try and take the vagaries of data out of the equation.
this started about a week ago and i really noticed it when i was in a 6 hour long meeting and my battery basically draines 60% even though the phone was in airplane mode
ok tried that but with my phone just factory reset, airplane mode and no apps installed other than spare parts it's showing running 94.1 % of the time and all of it is android system.
that cant be right
i have restored data, maybe i shouldnt restore data either but that just seems plain crazy
Re: Android system - partial wake lock
What exact foreground and background processes/services do you have running when this is happening, any idea?
Apps like System Panel can show you them and some useful other details. That is certainly too high.

ok right now there is
com.android.syncml.service
sense
market
messages
people
rss reader
syncml provider
sys panel
touch input
updater
and then a load of inactive cached applications
do you see anything unusual there?
ok so i downloaded system app and killed all apps except excluded and sytem apps and my running usage has gone down, now thats no suprise in and of itself but now i need to see if it stays down.
i've just checked again and the percentage is still going down, so it's either an inactive app which i didnt list ( is that even possible if its inactive) or one of the items i listed above.
has anyone got any thoughts.
What do the logs say upon going to standby? (Use aLogcat to watch/save system log).
I had same problem I tried the turning off network always on to off, didn't change anything. the thing that worked for me was turning off my flickr account!? For some reason it kept my calendar awake so keeping system from sleeping, don't ask me why as I can't figure it out, though since doing this I'm now getting up to 2 days of average use from the battery. Also I've done the usual of reducing the different accounts sync timings etc.
Have you typed *#*#4636#*#* into the phone key pad to look at what is happening? This can give valuable info on what's draining the battery.

I have the same problem as OP since the latest update. The *#*#4636#*#* code is not helping in this case. The partial wake lock is displayed as Android System - which doesn't tell me anything.
I read something about the Calendar issues but I am unable to stop the calendar in running processes.
How did you solve your problem?

Ok i seem to have had some luck since last night though i'm not sure of the exact reason.
i did as th3 said and downloaded system monitor and then killed all background active and inactive tasks and that seems to have solved the problem. I have no idea why that would be the case though and i am watching it carefully to see if it stays fixed.
i dont have a flickr account setup

Djet, I installed alogcat and have found all references to wakelock, rather than post the entire log
D/PowerManagerService( 77): wakelock: PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK 'NetworkLocation Check Location' activated (minState=0)
D/PowerManagerService( 77): wakelock: PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK 'NetworkLocation Check Location' activated (minState=0)

D/PowerManagerService( 77): wakelock: FULL_WAKE_LOCK 'keyguard'ACQUIRE_CAUSES_WAKEUP activated (minState=3)
there are also some entries in red like this one
E/vold ( 53): Unable to lookup media '/devices/platform/msm_sdcc.1/mmc_host/mmc0/mmc0:0001'
and a load of errors to do with global search etc but this is all pretty much gobbledegook to me, what am i looking for?
thanks
ok so based on that log i have switched of the use wireless networks to find my location (not gps i hardly ever use that anyway) and now the running % is dropping fast.
i will keep you posted as to whether it keeps coming down or not.
it is going to be an enormous bummer if i cant use wireless location, thats one of a smartphones greatest powers, why would this suddenly start happening now ( started about a week before the ota update) and continues even when i factory reset.

I suppose it's not the feature itself guilty but the applications using it. I had the same issue with battery running out because of Location service wake locks. It turned out one of the Locale app plugins was abusing this service. Having it uninstalled battery run became normal.

Yes i know what you mean, how did you go about diagnosing that? also i have done several factory resets and it still happens
Re: Android system - partial wake lock
There are a many app settings that drain battery and the stock setup is nothing I am fond of. Location/locale was one of them for me, calendar, network time and widget/app syncs being the others. A non-stock app causing such problems was NetCounter.
Calendar was fixed by killing it and restarting it. It's a known bug for many.
If many widgets are running sync very often, then you can imagine battery draining fast.

th3 you are legend, it was network time, i switched that off and all is now well in the world. cheers dude
Good find. I had the thing off anyway, but it is good to know.
I think my phone is suffering from the Android OS keep awake bug. I just charged my phone to 100%, rebooted, opened and closed the camera app and left it alone for about an hour and a half. I am down to 92% batter life remaining. This seems excessive. The Android OS app shows a keep awake time of exactly 93 minutes which is also exactly the same as the up time.
I don't quite understand BetterBatteryStats just yet, but BetterBatteryStats shows "gps-lock" as 1h27m4s under Kernel Wakelocks since charged. Nothing else comes close. The highest Partial Wakelock is ActivityManager-Launch with 12s. Under Other Awake is 93 minutes and Screen on is 2 minutes. BetterBatteryStats is the first item under Process the surfaceflinger and com.android.phone.
Before rebooting I had set my GPS settings to (and they remained this way after reboot)
-Google's Location Service : Unchecked
-GPS satellites : Checked
-Location & Google search : Unchecked
Other stats:
-Verizon LTE
-bigxie IML74K Build 2
-franco.Kernel #12 (hotplug enabled, 350k low, 120k high)
-No widgets
-No other apps were opened
-Gmail is set to sync. I haven't run or configured Google+ (don't use it). Gmail/Calendar/Contacts should be the only things syncing, no facebook sync.
I had similar issues before flashing the kernel and rom.
How can I get this thing to go to sleep? I don't think this should be consuming so much battery life while idle.
you have a "bad app" that is preventing the phone from deep sleeping.
get cpu spy from the market to verify how long your phone is staying in each state
do you have any notifications in the notification bar?
No notifications were received in the last 90 minutes (forever alone yes). I just installed CPUSpy. This says 00:01:25 was spent in 1200Mhz, 01:39:52 in 350mhz and 0:00:0 in Deep Sleep.
How can I find what app is preventing deep sleep? The only apps listed in the battery app are Android OS, Screen, Phone Idle, Cell standby and Android System.
Wouldn't this bad app show up in BetterBatteryStats under Process?

I don't use BetterBatteryStats so I wouldn't know.
I personally set my CPU speeds from 700-1200MHz (as indicated by Franco and others... setting it to ~300 is bad because it makes the phone use more power to catch up)
How many apps do you have? can you use AppBrain or something to provide me a list of what apps you use?
I just took a list at my CPU Spy...
0:09:51 1200Mhz
920 MHz... 0:01:35
700MHz: 0:09:49
Deep Sleep: 3:21:43
82%... 3h 50m 35s on battery
Android OS 28%
Screen 24%
Google Voice 14%
Phone idle 14%
Android system 7%
Cell standby 3%
Nova Launcher 3%
Wi-Fi 2%
Beautiful Widgets 2%
Market 2%
700-1200MHz. Conservative Governor. Hotplug off
I did try 700 with earlier versions (I think 8 & 9) and was also getting poor battery performance during idle. I wish there was an easier way to determine what app is preventing deep sleep, however it would almost certainly have to be a system app as I did not run any app when I started this test.

It doesn't have to be a system app. A app can be started as the moment as Android OS is started.
Not all apps are listed in that battery monitor. I can tell you that for sure. Definitely something is wrong with your phone setup.
The best way to debug it (in my opinion) would be to backup all of your apps and reflash the ROM from scratch. Flash bigxie's ROM (or try another ROM if you choose to) and Franco's Kernel.... install CPU Spy and leave the phone off for like 5-10 minutes. See if it deep sleeps.
Edit: Try this https://market.android.com/details?...251bGwsMSwxLDEsIm5leHRhcHAuc3lzdGVtcGFuZWwiXQ this should help you figure out what app it is.
Thanks for the tip. I am going to recharge and test again with all GPS settings disabled to rule the GPS out. Seeing the gps-lock as the top process in Kernel Waitlocks makes me wonder. I will give SystemPanelLite a try after this test.

You did update to the latest Google Maps right? it contained fixes for the battery. Maps is a huge drain if it runs in the background. I always leave my GPS deactivated even though it's activated ondemand. I just don't trust it.
Ahh hah! It has only been 20 minutes, but the GPS is the culprit. I did the same charge, reboot, camera cycle. Then I walked away. Checked CPUSpy and sure enough there was 18 minutes of deep sleep time out of a 20 minutes up time. Google Maps is up to date by the way.
Now the funny thing is, the GPS isn't all that great even when it was keeping my phone awake. Last night I checked the GPS after I got out of the subway (public transit, not sandwiches), for a second it still thought I was in the location prior to taking the subway. It took close to ten seconds to get within 500 meters of my location, and after that it was unable to pinpoint my exact location. The phone has been able to pinpoint my exact location in the past though.
So now, how can I determine if this is a software bug or a hardware bug? If it is software then no big deal, I can hold out. If it is hardware then I need to revert to factory, unroot, etc.

It's probably software. Something is keeping the GPS on. Either by a app or ROM. Most likely app.
If you're not using gps with google location services, it will take a while to lock.
Also, you have an app that is requesting GPS constantly while the phone is sleeping.. That is all.

Any idea on how to figure out what that app is?
I'm not sure how to find an app that is constantly requesting GPS, but I know the app Watchdog will help find an app that is running in the background consuming processor cycles.. you might want to try that but I have no idea if it will work.
holy ****! thank you! I've been trying to figure out what was causing my phone to not deep sleep for a week! I uninstalled google maps and it worked! now I'd like to figure out how to have both deep sleep and google maps installed...
did you tuck your phone in?
I had that problem with a Rom and turning on and off the Bluetooth would fix the problem.

Try disabling GPS when you're not using it. Worked for me.
i tried to freeze the google maps, but still getting the GPS wakelock.
from the other thread, some one mentioned about facebook.
i freeze facebook in titanium backup. looks like the GPS time is not increasing.
are you guys having this issue installed facebook app?

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.
"all i can really do , is stay out of my own way and let the will of heaven be done"
Anyone else encountering this? I didn't check before I went to 5.0.1, but right now it is consistent. Rebooting helps for a time, but my phone is awake for the most part even if I'm not using it, and most of that time goes to RILJ, used by the phone app.
I saw some threads about using wakelock terminator, but this doesn't work well on Lollipop because Xposed does not work 100% stably.

I'm having this annoying wakelock too on 5.0.1 in Nexus 5. Have you found any solutions?
If you turn off location history (and may need to reboot), it goes away, but without location history, Google now isn't as fun.
RILJ seems to have a wakelock about 50% of the time. This is only since 5.0.1. At least it doesn't seem to really be killing battery life much.
I don't use Google Now and I have location services disabled all together most of the time (no GPS, no network location). I only use it when I open Google Maps. I also turned off location history but nothing changes. RILJ is always there. I think this is related to the phone app.

Do you have location history disabled too? I think rilj is the phone looking for location via the network as opposed to via GPS.

You mean this right (see screenshot)? Yes I disabled that hours ago and still have that wakelock (among other wakelocks with high counts like *alarm*, SyncLoopWakeLock and many others). RILJ is the worst one though. It doesn't happen on wifi, only on mobile data.

Not sure that's the same place. I'm looking in settings->location->Google location history If I turn location history off there and reboot, rijl wakelocks stop.

Yeah, it's the same setting. That has been off since last night, along with Location services all together (I never use Google Now and rarely open Google Maps to see where something is or where I am). I don't think my problem has something to do with location. Thanks for your suggestion., though.
I may have found something here.
In Google Wallet->Settings->Notifications, I've turned off the nearby items option.
I've now only got 21 seconds of RILJ wakelock in the last 44 minutes.
I've had some other periods of time where RILJ stopped and when I turned the feature back on to test, RILJ didn't start up again, so I'm not sure I've found an answer, but, right now, it's looking ok.
Nope. Significant RILJ wakelock is back. Wonder why it wasn't there this morning.
This is definitely a strange one.
That is the same thing I've been seeing. You reboot and it goes away for a while, then comes back.

I also noticed it's rather insoncistent, but most of the time it's there, going crazy. Nearly 100 instances in a matter of a few minutes. I'm not actually sure of this, but I think it's worse when I'm in a place with bad cell coverage (home and work, for example -FML-). And when I'm at work there's absolutely nothing I can do to stop the wakelocks, because if I connect to that crappy WIFI, the RILJ will go away, but I'll get A LOT of wlan_rx and wlan_wd wakelocks too. When connected to the WIFI at home the phones sleeps like a baby.

In my case it doesn't. I've read that disabling background location helps (It's always disabled in my case) because it's the phone using cell towers to approximate your location. I don't use nor have Google Wallet. Wakelock detector shows it under "Phone (radio)".
All this ****ing wakelocks are drving me crazy, I'm having all sorts of them. A bunch of sync related wakelocks are always poping out, and I have autosync disabled most of the time. This came with the 5.1 update. I flashed Cynogenmod 12.1 this morning and I haven't seen any changes.
Been doing some more testing and this issue is just really strange. Turning off location history seemed like it was working for a bit, but rilj wakelocks are going just as strong now so that's not it.
Also, there are so few posts about this when i do a Google search that I'm wondering if this is just flat out a bug specific to the G3 that was introduced in 5.0.1.
RILJ is from the phone app. I had it in 4.4.2 too. As soon as I use the phone I get the wakelock.

It's not exclusive of the G3, I have them too on the Nexus 5. It's definitely related to the radio (phone), I think it gets worse when you have bad coverage. I managed to stop a bunch of the wakelocks I was having by making a profile in Tasker to turn on autosync every 2 hours for 5 minutes and, more importantly, by denying permissions to Google Services, Calendar (and its sync service), Contacts (and its sync service) for location, wake up and keep awake, among other permissions. I still see the RILJ wakelock but it's not significant and has no impact on battery life. I'm not sure if the permissions thing helps with the RILJ wakelock, but I'm sure that was the only thing that help with battery life.
RILJ Wakelock on HTC Desire 816 after Lollipop Upgrade
I am facing the same issue after upgrading my HTC Desire 816 to Lollipop. RILJ is related to the Dialer.
Tried the following:
1. Clear Cache and Dalvik Cache
2. Force Stop Dialer
3. Restart Phone (Works for some time)
However, after Googling for a while I found out that a restart will help as long as you don't receive a call. As soon as you receive a call, the RILJ process again shoots up and keeps your phone awake.
A restart after every phone call is way too annoying.
I'm no stranger to Android and troubleshooting problems, but right now I'm honestly at a loss as to what is causing my battery drain. I'm losing a little over 1% per hour while the device is in doze overnight, adding up to around 10-12% over 8 hours. Previously the max I would lose was close to 5%. I can't pinpoint exactly when something went rogue, but I want to say it was after the January update. I don't think I've added any new apps. I've obviously tried to clear data/cache in Google Play Services among some other apps too.
I've tried to use the battery historian, GSam, BBS, you name it. GSam is showing my device as constantly waking up overnight while in deep doze, but I can't attribute that to any wakelocks. BBS is basically clean as far as partial wakelocks go, and battery historian shows that 7% of the battery drain is unaccounted for. The one thing I have seen a few nights now is the Significant Motion that's in Google Play Services. I've also seen that under Phone and under Android System. I'm wondering if it's some kind of sensor, but I can't figure out what is causing it to stay on. I keep my phone on my nightstand overnight.
My next steps are going to be turning off always on display (AOD), turning on airplane mode overnight, and then doing a factory reset. I'll report back for anyone that comes across here, but I wanted to see if anyone has had similar issues.
I'm attaching a few screenshots, maybe someone can pick up something I'm missing.

Are you rooted by chance? I've seen this mentioned in a couple other threads. Seems the culprit has something to do with GPS's, tethering in developer options, wifi and bluetooth scanning or a rouge app. Most all the cases I've seen have been since the 8.1 update.
Solutions I've seen...turn off everything in the pic.
Clear cache/data on play services(kinda risky)
Clean flash the January update with fastboot.
Turn off bluetooth and wifi scanning.
Check your router setup(some wifi setups like to keep waking the device. I get this in hotels at times)
Try turning wifi off at night.
How many apps are using location services?(I had a weather app that was keeping my device awake)
This can definitely be a bugger to identify. Sure hope you find it ?

I am rooted. I've got WiFi/bluetooth scanning off, but I did just notice that Tethering hardware acceleration was on. I'm turning that off. I'll see how that goes tonight, if it's still draining then I'll try turning WiFi off and see what happens.
I've got GasBuddy, Google, Play Services, Maps, and WTForecast using location. None of those usually show up in any battery stats aside from Play Services.

Wtf weather was the one giving me trouble at one time. I just turned a few things off on that one. Are you using the "enable doze for GSM" magisk module like in the pic. That really seems to keep google play services in check :good:

I wouldn't worry about turning off AOD saving you a bunch, I turned mine off and didn't notice any diff at all in overnight batt drain, so set it to DIM, and still haven't noticed any additional batt drain from when it was off.
If you really want to be a miser without totally losing AOD,
"always on" OFF,
"Lift to check phone" ON,
(Settings>Display>Ambient display>)
set it to DIM (Settings>Display>Screen Saver>Current Screen Saver gear>Night mode checked)
which is how mine is set up

I've been trying to avoid using that module just because I don't want to delay anything from GCM, but I'm going to look into it if I can't identify another culprit.

GCM = Google Cloud Messaging, it's integrated into apps for push notifications. My (perhaps incorrect) assumption is that by dozing Play Services, you could delay push notifications for other apps.

Haven't noticed any delay what so ever with any push notifications from any apps. Google or otherwise :good:
I lost 11% overnight (8 hours), I have Amplify, Enable Doze for Google Play Services Magisk module and ForceDoze, and still getting that drain.
Could it be these apps conflicting with one another?
I noticed this as well and it seems to have started after the January update. Although mine isn't quite as bad. Pre-January update I was losing about 2-3% in like 8 hours. I'm now losing that much in like 4-5 hours. There were 2 days in a row where I actually lost like 15-18% over like 7 hours.

Get rid of amplify and forcedoze. Then see what happens. You've got too many things trying to do the same thing!
The Jan update has been ****. I would get almost 7 hrs SOT with 20% left. Now all I get is ****ty 4 hrs and phone at 10%. Usage wise it's the same since day 1 nothing new as such. No rogue app on BBS. This is messed up.

Yeah I had a feeling that could be it. I'll give it a shot by removing them, thanks for the suggestion! :highfive:

Try to run "su" and then "top" from terminal,
See what is your top process,
In one occassion, my magisk hide stucked up and using 30%++ of CPU all the time, even when idle, and that drain the battery in no time,
Am on 8.1 Jan, Kiriskura Kernel,
Tweak applied is Brevent, Amplify and my own EnableDoze for GMS.
Never lost more than 5% in 9 hours of sleep. Average is 2-3% with wifi on. Less than 2% when network is totally off

My bad. I forgot that it was a special build by another user. Install it from magisk manager. If it doesn't install, then flash it in twrp.
