Hey everyone,
I've got a hopefully quick question; I've been monitoring my new M9 for any irregularities, and the first up is the battery.
I've gotten GSAM up and running, and for the past two days I've left the phone alone intentionally after a full charge.
It's been connected to Wifi for quite a while (my router is literally 2 feet away from it.)
The standby drain hasn't been horrible, but having just checked GSAM, it seems like something may be waking the device pretty often. Unfortunately, I can't figure out what.
According to the stats, as of right now, the phone has been unplugged and running off battery for 38 hours and 44 minutes, but an astounding 19 hours and 51 minutes of that time has been "Held awake" which seems excessive to me.
In terms of "App usage" there are only 3 things that appear at the top with anything more than 1% total battery usage:
"Kernel (Android OS)" sits at 32.9%
"Helium" sits at 20.9% (I used this initially to restore some backed up data from my old device, which is why I've been on Wifi.)
"Android System" sits at 15.6%
Everything else is 1% or less.
Unfortunately, as I'm not rooted, I don't believe I can run the Wakelock Detector app, so I'm kind of stuck here as far as my investigation goes.
Any ideas, or any other way for me to check into what specifically is waking my device? I mention Verizon specifically because I don't believe there's any way to root the Verizon M9's right now.
Thanks.
Edit:
Just checked the stock battery stats stuff.
According to that, "Android OS" is the largest consumer of the battery, and is listed as having over 19 hours of "Keep awake" time on its own.
Not too sure what I can do with that, though...
