Maps draining battery? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Neo, Pro

I use google map version 6.0.2, but after using and return to idle mode, the device drain battery quickly, about 5% for 1 hour.
If restarted, all back to normal, about 1% for 2 hours.
I'm not using Google Latitude. And "Use wireless networks" always checked
Plz help me.

That is cuz mapps stay in you RAM.
Kill it in manage application in settings.

That's how Android works... apps stay in RAM - killing apps is NOT the answer unless they are misbehaving, which Maps doesn't. There is a reason for unusual battery drain, and that ain't it. Needs more methodical investigation.

of course, i use xperia neo.

Not a stock ROM, so you're on your own. The Stock SE .42 ROM and Maps are fine.

which ROM do you use?

I use stock room .42 + themes GS2.
//stock room .42 use google map 5.6. No "download arena map" feature.

6.0.3 is the latest Maps version by the way

How often does that happen? Had that a couple of times, because maps couldn't find my location by GPS.

New FB App killed touchwizz

Just to share my expierence. After upgrading to latest FB app last night, tried to start app, but it said something like "on some android phones you must reboot in order to get all the icons". I rebooted and .... puffffff. Suddenly I got a millions of "Touch wizz unexpectedly stoped", but also for all many other apps. I couldt reach software menu for turn off the phone, so i must hold turn off button for about 10 secconds, in order to turn it off. After I left the phone off for whole night, somehow it worked and i could uninstall FB app, but only through market, not through settings-> applications->organize applications. I would like to know if someone else had same problems.

Can only second the benefits of apex launcher...

I downloaded the new facebook app also, but haven't had any FC's since. The only change that I've noticed is that it adds 2 separate apps to the app drawer (camera, messenger). I'm unable to access the front camera on my phone using facebook's app though.

I believe this is quite normal on this phone. The phone wakes up to do tasks all under the name of Android System, so it does multiple task at the same time for a short period of time. However since the battery app only takes into account individual processes, it adds up to something its not.
I would be more worried about the others and just ignore it or group with Android OS in your mind. Your battery stats seem to be perfectly normal with no unexpected drains.

Nothing.
Your drain doesn't seem too bad but you can minimize the wakes by keeping wifi active.
If i switch wifi off the phone can drain upto 5% in 1 hour on standby, sometimes not so bad, othertimes worse.
Looking at BetterBattery stats TIME_TICK seems to cause the highest amounts of wakes. No idea what that is or what appliaction or service is activating it.
Thanks my friends
Please post in appropriate section

I also experience high load of the "Android System" with firmware 6.1.A.2.50.
With 6.1.A.2.45 the highest load was always caused by the display (as it should be).
There is many problem with battery on the news 2012 Xperia phone.
i've got the sola and : look

xperia 2011 phones even have this problem

Methinks the new Google maps is misbehaving.

Self explanatory. Anyone else experiencing this?

There are a few threads about this in both Q and A as well as General. It could be Maps caching the area or other apps that are using the GPS.
Edit: Here's one from a little while back with something that worked for the OP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2334342&highlight=maps
I had this problem too. Maps would always be one of the top three consumers of my battery, even though I never used it. I app quarantined it.
I think Greenify would work as well if you still want to use Maps.
Zero problems here, doesn't even show in battery stats. I'm on stock unrooted.

Op same thing here
It's used 4% of my battery and I haven't even opened the maps app. Running modded version of CM10 with working IR and GPS
Swyped from my VZW SGS 4
it happens when i use Google Now. i end up killing the maps after using it. i even have location turned off.
Greenify works well for this.
Destroying my battery today after I reflashed last night. Ended up uninstalling maps. Guess I'll just install it when I need it...

what could be the cause?
Better yet why not grab a logcat and see what is causing wake locks or install one of many apps to do this for you such as better battery stats or watchdog

Some apk's can cause this. Try to do factory reset.

Battery drain

So I recently updated to 402 firmware but was forced to downgrade back to 55 cause of severe battery drain and now back on 55 (after a clean install) the problem persists. I haven't installed anything yet and this is what my stats look like constantly

Note: Facebook is disabled... Lol and the name of the process that appears in the icon is: ANT HAL Service. I have no idea to check what's causing this since I'm not rooted. Anyone an idea?

Alright after countless restarts and force closing of potential apps that could be draining battery I managed so somehow make screen disappear completely from battery stats. I'm gonna reflash firmware cause this is kinda bull****. I've never had such issues before 4.4 and I'm getting the impression that there's quite a few issues with it so far..
Update: after reflashing a clean rom 2nd time in a row I still can't get screen to register in battery usage :S
Anyone got tips for me? I'm this close to going back to the store and getting a replacement.
Do a full wipe and see if issues are resolved.

Didn't work, got a new device today anyway. This one came with 402 and has no issues whatsoever.
Mine too, but not so munch. 5% per night. Heavy widget and home screen installed.
