[AC Question]

I have a Motorola Droid Mini running KitKat 4.4.4.

mdnsd uses about 36% of my battery expenditure. I have had the issue for about week. It seems to only activate when I have a low battery but it remains even after charging fully. I've restarted the phone several times. I have never had Firefox and I deleted my drone app as well as all other apps recently downloaded. Are there any other possible fixes before I try factory reset? Thanks.

Try a cache wipe. Not sure how to do that on a Motorola though. But it's something available for Android phones so you have that option

I am having the exact same issue. I spoke with my cell provider tec support and they have no clue. I can tell you factory restart does not work. I have done that. I also had 2 replacement phones sent to me and it happens on every replacement phone.

I'm having this issue. I Uninstallled Facebook. It went away. I reinstall Facebook n it's back. Must be newest version. The mdnsd is sending n receiving info. Not sure why but it must be a lot because of the depletion of my battery. The info it is sending n receiving goes slowly, & I could see it when I viewed my battery usage. The newest version is syncing Facebook events to my calendar. Never did that before & I don't like it & can't find a way to stop it or undo it. Very aggravating.
