I understand the wifi but why does my phone constantly state awake?
Oh and forget that number :)

My GPS wasn't even on and I just turned it on a minute before uploading the screenshot here. I have no idea what the problem is.
 
Well my friend, your experiencing a wake lock. It will absolutely demolish your battery life.


I should have a section for it in my troubleshooting guide(just checked it, I dont), if not try changing PRL and PRI

I've NEVER had that happen before. So I just nandroid the ROM and restored my Team Nocturnal stock 4.67 ROM. Xplod clearly doesn't work for me (I tried the XE version last night and it froze on the boot and today with the SE version wake lock issue -_-).
 
It doesn't appear to be affecting your battery life at all. Tommy's classic senseless has a bug where the refresh button is constantly displayed and the system will show a wakelock, but it's not actually awake (apparently) because it's not causing any drain.

I noticed that too. It wasn't causing any battery drain (I just installed it today so I know the rom has to get used to the phone) but that scared me O_O. My GPS was turned off and the ROM said it was on the whole time, lol. I like that ROM too, looks cool
 
Yeah if your GPS was truly trying to work constantly, your battery life would drop like a rock. It's the biggest battery hog. Worse than 4G even I think.

From first hand experience it is worse than 4G. When I'm in 4G areas I switch to it and the difference between that and 3G using the battery is minimal. Even though I'd much rather have WiFi lol
