After 5 hours mediaserver accounts for just 3% of battery usage now. And considering I've played music and downloaded apps today I imagine that's a normal amount. Personally I'm not yet sold on any mobile browser. Dolphin slowed my phone down a crazy amount and Chrome isn't much better...

So with my previous post in mind I went and deleted Chrome Beta and switched to the stock Chrome. It's been 2 hours now and no sign of any mediaserver. I'll update if it changes.

Nope, it's back! Ha. It's interesting that it doesn't seem to kick in immediately. This morning after a full recharge it took about 90 minutes before it started up and now it's draining the battery massively. The only apps I've used in that time are Chrome and whatsapp.

Well, having done a safe mode reboot, there seemed to be no mediaserver issue. Upon putting my phone back into normal mode, I decided to change the theme.. Just a hunch I had really.. And so far it seems to have solved the issue. I'm highly surprised and it may just be a coincidence so far...

I unmounted it, charged the phone fully, rebooted and still mediaserver was the biggest battery drain. I do have a number of streaming and DLNA apps and I wonder if this could be part of the problem. The biggest issue is trying to isolate whatever is causing mediaserver to run. I'm starting...

I too have been having this issue just recently. I've been on Android for around 3 years now and never experienced mediaserver issues before. It's absolutely killing my battery, causing the phone to lag and heat up and general slowdown. I have tried formatting the sd card but this seems...

My screen did flicker at one point, especially in always on display mode. However, after restarting the phone, it seems to be fine.

I just went ahead and pre ordered my S7 Edge. It had fully been my intention to save up and buy one outright, making do with my HTC M8 on a sim only deal until then. Unfortunately, the beauty of this phone made me weak and I've given in. I went for a 12 month Vodafone deal. £229 upfront £59...

I need a new phone as mine struggles to not slow down even when viewing Web pages now. Unfortunately I'm too poor to be able to afford a new one for the next year or so.
