Hi guys

I need some help here. My nexus4 battery dies like crazy when it's in standby mode. Downloaded CPU spy and found out that the phone almost doesn't deep sleep and is always running at the lowest frequency. Downloaded Better Battery Stats and I cannot actually understand what is eating the battery but I am attaching the dump file. I factory reset, changed the kernel to Franco's but still nothing seems to work. Please advise.

I did not go through all your stats but you must have some apps running and or auto syncs. go into apps under running.. see what is there.

If you have a ton of background apps/processesnrunning your battery will take a beating for sure. Check ask your settings and app settings to make sure they are not syncinbg often.

Disable GPS...turn down brightness.. Check your widgets too

Thx for your help. Done that. It is something running in the background but can't tell what it is. Used titanium backup to freeze all the apps but no luck. As I mentioned it only shows Android os in the battery page, no other details.

Did you try turning off yahoo? Yahoo mail? It appears to be running full out almost..I had those and ended up removing because they were killing my battery.. I had all of them, messenger, mail and the yahoo asp.. Removed them all..

If you are still having an issue after the holiday I will go through your stats mor thoroughly to see what is running but would also ask you for some further stats too.. if needed though I will help more then. Too tired now.

well, it takes more energy to frown than it does to smile
on other words, if you want to test, restore the phone to stock, turn off all syncing. then post up new stuff, see if its still happening

this means if you log into your google account, no syncing, disable all background data and all that jazz. 
in case a reader doesnt know, disableing background data will stop any application not in the foreground from accessing the net while on mobile data.

SNS is social networking service so I would assume its social networking service auto sync do you have Facebook, twitter or the social hub app instead on your phone? If so turn off the sync to those apps

Thanks for your help. I have disabled ALL the sync operations, still that phone won't go into Deep Sleep unless I switch off all kind of data communication (wifi & cellular), other than that it shall always operate at 384MHZ even during sleep. Began to doubt the phone itself for some hardware malfunction

So I figured out what was causing the "sns_async_ev_wakelock" on my Nexus 4. It's a little perplexing since I thought it was related to the "Social Network Service", but I hadn't changed much since I had started seeing it appearing. So I started turning things off one-by-one and uninstalled new apps. Then I was finally able to pinpoint it to the "Magnetic Field" action I had set up in Tasker. I was using it to detect when it was on the wireless charging pad.

Now I need to find a new way to detect when it is on the wireless charging pad in Tasker. I tried using the power options, but it doesn't seem to detect when it is actually charging. Not only that, but since the charging will stop for a little while after the phone is fully charged that probably wouldn't be the best solution. The "magnetic field" detection seemed perfect, but then the phone never seems to go into a deep sleep.

Edit: looks like the Beta version of Tasker will handle wireless power detection: http://tasker.dinglisch.net/changes/nextversion.html

This is just my experience:

Ok this what I have found out so far. For about two weeks my new Nexus 4 has not been able to enter "Deep Sleep".
The phone would only drop to 384mhz even with the screen off. Using BetterBatteryStats I was able to see that
I was having a "Kernel Wakelock" issue, mainly "sns_async_ev_wakelock" and "sns_periodic_wakelock".
I have not seen an issue with the "msm_hsic_host" that some people are seeing.

Now I asked some kernel devs their thoughts on this sns lock issue and all of them said that it is not in the kernel.
It is an app that is running that is causing this issue. So I believe that I have found my offending app. At the bottom is what I have installed

Anyway I tried uninstalling several apps then turned my live wall paper to one that comes installed on the phone.
Here is what I uninstalled
  • Box
  • Drive
  • Google Sky Map
  • Speed Test
  • System Lite Panel
  • Quadrant
  • Tasks
  • Ingress
  • Zooper Widget Pro

I then did some checks with CPUSpy and BetterBatteryStats and like a Christmas miracle there was Deep Sleep while the screen was off.
So now I now that it had to do with something that I had just changed. I then proceeded to install these app one by one and set
them back up while I went all the time checking to see if the phone would reach Deep Sleep while the screen was off.

After I had re-installed all apps that I had uninstalled above I noticed that the phone would still enter Deep Sleep meaning that the Kernel Wakelocks
were not getting stuck. This worried me as it meant that non of those app was the offending app.

I then reset my Live Wall Paper and guess which one it is.

Snowfall Live Wallpaper

About 20 secs after turning it back on the phone would no longer enter Deep Sleep with the screen off. Then I set the
wallpaper back to a stock live wallpaper and Force Stopped the Snowfall Live Wallpaper and in about 5 secs the phone would enter
Deep Sleep again and has continued to do so for the rest of the day.
I am going to write the developer and inform them that whatever they are using is not allowing the Nexus 4 to enter deep sleep.

Now I am not saying that the "sns_async_ev_wakelock" and "sns_periodic_wakelock" still do not increase they just increase very very very slowly.
And my battery life has gotten better as a result.

Maybe the OP should start a list of all the apps that are causing this issue so we may contact the developer and get them fixed.

    This is just my experience:

    Ok this what I have found out so far. For about two weeks my new Nexus 4 has not been able to enter "Deep Sleep".
    The phone would only drop to 384mhz even with the screen off. Using BetterBatteryStats I was able to see that
    I was having a "Kernel Wakelock" issue, mainly "sns_async_ev_wakelock" and "sns_periodic_wakelock".
    I have not seen an issue with the "msm_hsic_host" that some people are seeing.

    Now I asked some kernel devs their thoughts on this sns lock issue and all of them said that it is not in the kernel.
    It is an app that is running that is causing this issue. So I believe that I have found my offending app. At the bottom is what I have installed

    Anyway I tried uninstalling several apps then turned my live wall paper to one that comes installed on the phone.
    Here is what I uninstalled
    • Box
    • Drive
    • Google Sky Map
    • Speed Test
    • System Lite Panel
    • Quadrant
    • Tasks
    • Ingress
    • Zooper Widget Pro

    I then did some checks with CPUSpy and BetterBatteryStats and like a Christmas miracle there was Deep Sleep while the screen was off.
    So now I now that it had to do with something that I had just changed. I then proceeded to install these app one by one and set
    them back up while I went all the time checking to see if the phone would reach Deep Sleep while the screen was off.

    After I had re-installed all apps that I had uninstalled above I noticed that the phone would still enter Deep Sleep meaning that the Kernel Wakelocks
    were not getting stuck. This worried me as it meant that non of those app was the offending app.

    I then reset my Live Wall Paper and guess which one it is.

    Snowfall Live Wallpaper

    About 20 secs after turning it back on the phone would no longer enter Deep Sleep with the screen off. Then I set the
    wallpaper back to a stock live wallpaper and Force Stopped the Snowfall Live Wallpaper and in about 5 secs the phone would enter
    Deep Sleep again and has continued to do so for the rest of the day.
    I am going to write the developer and inform them that whatever they are using is not allowing the Nexus 4 to enter deep sleep.

    Now I am not saying that the "sns_async_ev_wakelock" and "sns_periodic_wakelock" still do not increase they just increase very very very slowly.
    And my battery life has gotten better as a result.

    Maybe the OP should start a list of all the apps that are causing this issue so we may contact the developer and get them fixed.

    SNS is social networking service so I would assume its social networking service auto sync do you have Facebook, twitter or the social hub app instead on your phone? If so turn off the sync to those apps
