For Those With Battery Draining Issues

JordanED69 · Jul 10, 2011

I Found that the service called omadrmconfigservice hogs battery while ur screen is off. bascially it won't allow the device to sleep. It's function is to check for theft from media hub. It runs constantly, updating every 11.5 seconds. simple solution.

remove sisodrmprovider.apk from system/app

tell me if u notice any battery changes. thanks

I've noticed better battery after killing the service. I didn't delete the apk though.

How do you RESTART the service after you stop (not delete) it?

smartshoppingg · Jul 10, 2011

Can somebody tell me how to disable that service?

jrmendia · Jul 10, 2011

To Stop it >> Settings >> Applications >> Running Services

DONE, Stopped. Checking for a few days to compare results. Now,

[Q] If I stop the service, it will at some point restart automatically?

It shouldn't. But I'm pretty sure it'll start on every boot.

U cud simply enable these back by renaming them to .apk from .back or .old or whatever u renamed them to.

bradbusa · Jul 11, 2011

Do these files have anything to do with "download manager"process from media hub. I tried killing the running service but it always restarts itself

Removing these files will cause Quadrant to stop working. I'm not sure what else it affects.

igotdez · Jul 11, 2011

I think it affects the stock music player also because I rename the file and tried playing music it worked but when I try to skip songs it freezes..
