Root Wakelock Detector

Installed this last night and I'm already impressed with how tiny and how useful the program is. It gives a detailed breakdown of what is breaking wakelock, including system and user apps. In just a night of using I found that my biggest wakelock breaker was not something like Facebook, but was instead my alarm manager and my SMS backup program. Good info to have if you're trying to track down sudden battery drain issue.

The alarm manager makes sense. Unless I misunderstand the way that the alarms on android work... They don't hook any sort of cron system to wake themselves up at a certain time thus they have to wake the device up on a schedule, check the time, and go back to sleep. If you don't use your phone for an alarm... I'd freeze it.

The SmS backup though... That's just weird.
