Can't get rid of this wakelock - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I put the phone into flight mode over night and the drain was a bit less than when on. 15% in 8.5 hours, compared to the 25% with it on.
However, as you can see from the screen shots, something is still causing the phone is "wake up". I've turned off everything in the process of trying to find out what it is, but still cannot find out.
Can someone have a look at the shots and see if ye can pick out something.
I must say that the connectivity issue I'm having(keeps giving me a connected to wifi network notification every few mins) could be causing these wakelocks?? I don't know myself.
Anyways, I'd appreciate any thoughts on how to sort out the wakelocks.

s-voice has a wake up feature turned on by default

Continuously connecting to Wi-Fi is the power saving mode.
You can deactivate it by dialing *#0011#, menu, Wi-Fi.
The only way I found to allow the phone to truly sleep was not to have Wi-Fi on at all. Off when screen off also seems to work.

4.5hrs screen time looks pretty good to me. I'm lucky if I get 4hrs

[Q] Quick question about my battery graph

Just curious, do the blue bars beneath the graph correlate with the time axis above it?
Would I be right in thinking that my battery life plummeted as soon as I turned off wifi?

Yes. Probably more likely to be related to screen on, and possibly mobile data. Depending on the brightness, it seems like 4-6 hours of screen on will eat the battery.
Yes it does correlate.
The thing is you just had WiFi on for some period, but you didn't do much in that specific time, it was just on. But just after you had turned it off some apps or processes kept running and you also used the device.
That graph looks pretty fine to me.
Regards.

That's not true screen by itself will not eat battery so fast , review site did media playback test of SD material and battery lasted little over 9 hours.
Only combination of radio+CPU+display will get you 4 hour mark, that's worst case scenario.
Cool, thanks for the replies. Makes sense now

Wakelocks (?) on Wifi

Hello everyone,
I've had my GS3 for over a month now and I can say I am quite happy with it. Battery life is rather consistent (I come from an Apple IP4).
There is something that is bugging me though. Every time I am connected to a wifi network, battery drains faster than usual. Whenever I check the battery usage, I can see that the phone wakes up for short periods of time repeatedly, mainly when I am using wifi. Here's a screenshot of it.

I am on 4.1.1. No custom ROM and/or rooted.
Hope you can help me.
Something's waking your phone regularly... not WiFi. Use BBS to monitor what is doing it.
It is likely to be an app using a network connection for data retrieval.
My guess is that an app is set to sync\download\upload when you are on WIFI only, and stuck in a loop. Install Better Battery Stats, charge your phone fully, put it on WIFI and then leave it for an hour. Then check and\or post your BBS log.
Happy hunting.
Is there a free app that i can do that with???
Thanks a lot.
Probably wlan_rx_wake wakelock
There are custom kernels for that
You know, as i said, I've only had the phone for over a month. More info on that would be greatly appreciated.

wifi always on, softkeys lights up even when not touched, etc etc

Hello everyone,
I have noticed some strange behavior of my s3. I saw that, on battery graph, even when my wifi is turned off for a longer time, it displays as it is on. The other one problem that disturb me is that sometimes, when i read something or play games, back button and menu button lights up, like i touched it. And, ive noticed also, when I turn off and wifi and mobile data, on screen shows up "failure in downloading data" (something like this, ive translated this from my language to english), which (i think)
causes fast battery consumption. Here is the screenshot of battery graph.

where you can see wifi usage and that from full battery to 20% it takes only 5 hours (battery is new one). Should i change the rom, kernel etc, or something else? Any suggestion will be good.
P.S. My s3 is rooted and riding on factory sw 4.3.
Thanks to all, and sorry for opening a new thread, found this as best solution.
Durty flash a 4.3 rom and check if it still is the same.
Wireless->Advanced and check if is checked "scan for free wifi" or similar voice

Poor battery life caused by sleep problem related to charging.

I'm wondering if anyone might be able to help me with this battery life/sleep issue. I have not found much info about it online.
Phone: Nexus 6 unlocked on stock firmware and unrooted
Carrier: Verizon Wireless
Android Version: 6.0.1 (build MMB29Q)
This issue also occurred on my old GS4 which was running Android 4.4.2/echoe rom.
Note the charging graph below:

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
When I unplug my phone in the morning, I always have to turn it off and back on or else it will not enter sleep. With light use, phone frequently enters sleep and battery drain is minimal. After heavy use midday I plugged the phone in. Note that after the first partial charge, the phone never enters sleep until I restart it around 7pm. This results in significant battery drain.
This is a frustrating problem and I can't for the life of me figure out the cause other than it is directly related to charging. Anyone else encounter the same issue?
Thanks!

Question Pixel 6 Battery and assistant issue

Hi all, i received my pixel 6 couple of days ago and it's great phone. However I'm having couple of issues
Overnight battery doesn't charge to full 100%. I leave it on charge before I go to bed and when I wake up, it's only 85%. I have disabled adaptive charging too. Nothing changes
Assistant does not speak at all. When I ask a question (eg, what's the weather), it shows the result on screen and does not speak.
Anyone encountered problems like this?
A suggestion would be great help
For Assistant doesn't speak: go to this setting, and set speech output to Full
