Hello Good People,
I went from Kitkat 4.4.4 to Nougat 6.0.1 and I see this alarm being very active
Alarms: 199, Intent: com.sec.epdg.NATT_KEEP_ALIVE_TIMER_EXPIRED

Can someone please share some insight as to what this does and if I can limit it?

Does it keep the device awake or appear to be associated with some other undesirable behavior? If 'no' to both ignore it. Alarms & wakelocks w/o consequence are not evil.

Davey126 to the rescue!
Thank you kindly for the quick response. I answered no to both questions so looks like I will take your advice and leave it alone.

Wonderful to see you still active on this thread and generously helping others in need,
THANK YOU

What do you mean by not working? Is it crashing?

I mean to say, when we will try to on aggressive doze mode they will ask to open certain page and page mentioned that to make features working you have to apply some permission by computer using command prompt or powershell, after I connect my mobile to pc I try to execute command mentioned in Greenify website but it's not working or executing.

Is there any way to utilize Amplify without Xposed or an alternative app that comes even close to it, excluding Greenify?

For alternative app probably you can use wakeblock.
But unfortunately if your device is android 6 or lower, it cannot be used.

Use elemental EX kernel manager. It allows you to block wake locks, Even on Android 10. must be rooted

I am having huge battery drain on my S20U. Overnight it lost 20% (100% to 80%). This is with mobile data, location, NFC, AOD, Bluetooth and dolby atmos OFF. Checking on Better Battery Stats (which has been given additional access via ADB), out of 8 hours it was awake for 4h 51m. This is huge IMO. I have included screenshots below for kernel and partial wakelocks. Could anyone with more knowledge point towards whats causing the drain? its driving me mad.

Basically, in Kernel wakelock its mmc0_detect and bbd_wake_lock. Did some research on mmc0_detect and it suggests it is due to Always on Display. But in my case AOD was off the whole time.

Please post the log, not screenshots.

Your log does not meet the requirements for a proper idle dump. Please submit a log with over 6 hours screen off time and less than 1 minute screen on. There's detailed instructions on the first post.

Thanks, I have attached the logs based on the requirements. There are 2 logs. First - With location and AOD - OFF. This shows drain of 6% (100% to 94%) in 7h 11m, this equates to 0.8%/hr drain. Second - with Location Off but AOD On. 13% drain in 7h 39m. which is 1.7% drain per hour.
I am happy with results of first night (.8% drain per hr). However with second log, is it on acceptable level?

Seems you have self-identified the culprit. My personal experience with AOD varies by device with Samsung gizmos biasing functionality/responsiveness over power efficiency. I typically disable AOD except on Moto phones. If you find AOD beneficial keep it on, perhaps tweaking which apps can trigger AOD (believe Samsung controls allow this). Otherwise disable. Doesn't get much simpler than that.

I only have Greenify installed to locate misbehaving apps, otherwise I let Doze handle everything. I have to come to understand that over-tweaking and blocking wakelocks, at least on Android Q, causes more harm than good.

The sudden rush of activity after the wakelock is given time usually offsets any savings made anyway.

Do we still need these apps in android 10?

Nope - absolutely not. That said, some enthusiast with too much unstructured time will undoubtedly make a case for sticking with 2015 era methodologies on modern ROMs and devices that can manage themselves. I can hear them typing now.
