Sudden battery drain

[diirk]

Interesting.

Like you my GSM and GPRS are on, and my APNs are the same as yours.

But my logs show *zero* GSM activity on my Note II.

Very strange. I know a few others with S3's. I'll try to check them.

It's your Mobile Networks settings screen that looks strange.
Here's mine:

What shows in the details if you click on Maps in GSam? Maps is notorious for sucking large amounts of battery even when you aren't using it. Try disabling Maps temporarily.

What was the Total State Time on your CPU Spy stats? That stat is cut off at the bottom of your screenshot. The other CPU Spy stats show the phone in Deep Sleep most of the time, which is good.

But the GSam stats show the phone being held awake 4 hours out of the 8 hours, which is bad. Apparently the GSam stats were taken before the CPU Spy app was even started.

The GSam stats show high usage by the Kernel, which is bad. We need more info on the Kernel stats. If you click on the Kernel item in GSam stats what system processes are at the top of the detail list?

Ok, I'm not sure quite what I'm looking for but I reset the CPUSpy and let it run for about an hour and a half .

The total state time was 1:30:51, and the notable "time is state" is 384 MHz is at 95%. Not sure what else to look at

Also not sure what to do in regards to the Maps Ap.

Do you still have the battery discharging problem?

Your original CPUSpy stats looked good, just that the Time in State was cut off at the bottom of the screen shot.

It's hard to tell, since I've been using it and I can't really know what's coming from use and what's not. Seems to be a bit more than usual.

I started this thread to ask about those occasional days my phone drops 60% or 70% overnight. It appears it's been hijacked to address general batter drain so I guess I'll go with the flow.

So I changed it again yesterdan and unplugged before I went to bed. It was at about 80% this morning, so Google Now didn't seem to have a big influence. I then installed CPUSpy and let it sleep while I drove to work. Attached are the related screen shots. Maps still seems very high, considering I didn't open it at all. Other than that does anything look out of the ordinary?

Don't think I get the comment about JuiceDefender.

Sorry man was just tryin to help ya

I have a samsung droid stratosphere and would like to share one of my issues and see if any of you have experienced this.
Plug in and charge your phone before you go to bed, turn it off and unplug it, in the morning try and turn it on. Mine was dead, and its not very old ( almost 1 year) Im an electronics tech and know all about batteries and how to charge them for optimal capability.
This is what Ive experienced just last night. I charged my phone (1 yr old droid) completely and then turned it off and unplugged it, woke up this morning and it was completly dead. Charged it and it lasts all day.
Anyone experience this?
My conclusion is either I have a horrible battery (which I seriously dought since it works normally when charged stays all day depending on use) or my apps are using my juice as I sleep without the phone being on.
I suspect this is the reason because why would they put in the permissions of most apps now, that they can access the internet and all of my data, phone lists, posting to the internet on my behalf and even over write any of my info or programs. It makes me really suspiscious of what the hell is going on when Im not using my phone.
Try this yourself, especially if you have a bunch of apps.
Most people do like I have for the last several years, they leave their phone plugged in overnight ( I know I did for years with no notice of battery issues, even now) So why was my phone dead in the morning when it was turned off???
APPS!!
SO now Im gonna clean my phone of apps that require any admin access to my personal info, internet, phone features like my camera or audio or allowed to overwrite my info , post on my behalf, or even power on if turned off.
No app needs to access my passwords, personal info contacts, data and certainly dont need full access to the internet camera or audio when the phone is off!
I really suspect something aweful is happening here without our knowledge.
Any ones insight would be appreciated here, especially anyone willing to experiment with me to find out the real issue be it battery or juice theft by app
