[APP][2.2+] [v.1.5+] Wakelock Detector- What keeps your phone awake when it sleeps?

bumper_VFX · May 12, 2014

Love the S5, but the battery life not so much...

Hey,

Thanks for providing such useful tools. I have been able to access my phone via your PC tool.

The problem is that my new Galaxy S5 has terrible battery life. After 11 hours of minor to moderate use I am at 27%. Verizon has been unhelpful in suggesting that it's my having WI-FI activated that is the problem. Seems unlikely, in my opinion.

Again, I've been successful in accessing my phone with Wavelock Detector PC. Unfortunately however, I do not know how to interpret the results.

I've made a screenshot sheet with just the top processes. Please let me know if you need to see the rest. Any suggestions/translation would be appreciated.

I appears I can't post images until I've posted 10 times. (sigh, nothing is easy) So if you're inclined to help, please let me know and I can PM you the URL for my screenshot sheet.

Thank you very much!

Hi guys, just started using WLD and I was wondering how come I dont have any deep sleep?it is an app issue or kernel issue?

Update

Solved the issue just by rebooting the phone

Any chance that some simple Linux scripts could be released that would allow for similar functionality to the PC/Windows version? Unfortunately my Moto X doesn't have adb on the device. It wouldn't have to have a fancy graphical display, just a text dump of the info would be great.

It's not great, but it's a start. I'm not sure if this is even the right information but this should show CPU time split into user, kernel, and foreground.

Code:

adb shell dumpsys | perl -n000e 'while (/Proc ([^:]+):\r\n\s+CPU: ([^\r]+)/g) { print "$1 : $2\n"; }'

EDIT: This is actually not particularly helpful, now that I've done some more research. You may be better off just running the adb shell dumpsys > filename.txt and reading through it manually.

You'll see sections that look like this:

Code:

    Wi-Fi network: 143.01KB received, 90.22KB sent

      Service com.strava.service.StravaUploadService:

        Starts: 2, launches: 2

The lines starting with 'Wake Lock" show what types of locks and how many.

Hey, guys,
just a short question: The deep sleep on my non-rooted phone shows 53% awake. On the PC with the PC version it says something around 30%. So I guess the Wakelock App on the phone without the work adround is totally useless? Or what do I make of the 53%?

By the way, any idea how to get the work around to work on an HTC One? The listen to TCP 5555 port command doesn't do anything, I'm afraid

Hi,
Thanks for the windows version, really awesome to check wakelocks without root. I've been having a problem with my Note Pro 12.2. Android system keeps the tab awake 95% of the time. I tried wiping but that only helped for a few days and the problem returned. Last night WLD showed that com.sec.android.app.bluetoothtest is keeping awake. Any ideas how to fix this?
Bluetooth is switched off and never used. I've tried reloading the firmware via Kies without wiping but that not helped.

Thanks.

I was not able to find any info about "com.sec.android.app.bluetoothtest" wakelock
what is your phone model and firmware version?
is it still there after reboot?

The PC version is correct, because it considers the Screen On time.

Your phone is not rooted KitKat thats why it shows 53%(including screen on time)
in other words, phone version does not have access to read screen on time..

and I did not test WLD with HTC One, I am not sure if it has adb built in...

sorry to say but in this case you have to use PC version to find the cause of wakelock buggers

Thanks. I'm going to have to dig through this information. As it is, the dump gave me 358 lines of wakelocks, most of which were trivial (a few ms here and there). If I get a big one, at last I can look for big times. It'll take a bit of hunting though. Hmmm. I wonder how hard it would be to write a script to parse all of that. Hmmm.

Actually, it was not as hard as I thought. All I had to search for was "All partial wake locks:" and it gives me a list in order starting with the longest wake lock. The only problem is that it only gives it since it was last unplugged, not since the last reboot. Therefore, plugging it in and getting this data will end up resetting it once you unplug the device. Not a huge deal, but something to be aware of.

Today on my HTC (rooted) I had a lot of awake time (>12 hrs) but the wakelocks only added up to about 3-4 hours, I enabled advanced option but still couldn't find any wakelock to explain why my phone was awake for 91% of the time...

I'm trying to get the pc version of wakelock detector to work with my unrooted HTC one but ever time I open the program on my Windows 7 pc it immediately says it stopped working. I did all the required steps prior to open pc version of wakelock detector and accepted the connection. Can anyone please help me. I even tried downloading the file again but no dice.

I have much wake up during sleep. The stats I think looks ok though. What do you think ?

Is it normal to see dialer up to the top of the list and proximity sensor in particular keeping the phone awake for the same amount of time as the dialer app?
For example I get Wakelock Detector to show 28min of Dialer app and when I click on it I see proximity sensor keeping the phone awake for 28 min.

It appears that Google plans to add some battery/wakelock-detecting functionality back to Android with Project Volta, especially the "Battery Historian" part.

Yes I can confirm that. After updating and re-rooting all my other apps which require root work just fine, except WLD.
