Fellows, I've always thought there was "something" sucking my battery more than it should, and tonight I decided to perform a test. I charged it to 96%, closed all running apps and let it idling in my table while I slept with mobile enabled.
This took place at 3:56am, as you can see in the screenshot.
At 9:00am I woke up to take a medicine and check my battery, and I noticed that in 5:04h it drained 20% of my battery... I noticed Android SO is always on the top, so I went to check how long it's been using the CPU for...
Yes, 22min while idling. What exactly is Android SO? What demands it? Because the device was idling the whole time.
Then I slept again and woke up at 10:30am, and rechecked the battery...
Again, it kept draining heavily without any screen activity, and the Android SO was growing constantly:
So I took another nap and definitely got up at 12:39pm, and...
In the graph it shows no screen nor activity, but the drain is high and constant... I know the system needs juice to run, as well as the cell services, but I think this 4,4%/h is too high for an idling device, and Android SO is too high. On my friend's Galaxy S it is always under 10 minutes of usage, and it's a Galaxy S i9000b with the same kernel/base band/android version as mine.
I would accept a drain like 2%/h, but I'm getting more than double of that...
Does anyone have an idea of what it could be? I'm really suspicious about this Android OS...
I hope I can be helped, because I can't full rely on my phone because sometimes it's dead when I most need it.
Specs: Samsung Galaxy S i900b (brazilian), Android 2.3.3
Running services: Whatsapp
Bluetooth, GPS, Sync = off
Thanks a lot.
