[1.0.7.16/18] Battery drain and heating up after Update 7 [not relevant]

It's not - only - related to 4G. I'm mainly stuck in 2G (I switch sometimes manually in 3G) and I can confirm the higher battery drain.

Edit: false alarm! It was related to some Android app not properly closed and also to the new version of Mitakuuluu which consumes more battery.

I used to be able to only charge my phone at work, it lasted from Friday afternoon till Monday morning, usually then down at 30% as I don't use my phone a lot, but after the update I need to charge already on Sunday morning (down at 5%) and I don't feel I have used the phone more than usually. Using the battery meeter application, it seems to be close to 2W which before it used to be below 1W. I guess one thing that drains is the Alien Dalvik, but not sure if it's which drains me most.

I did pay extra attention for processes and their CPU consumption (by LightHouse) for last two days. I can confirm that Mitakuuluu (v0.8.0-2) consumes up to 50% CPU sometimes/randomly on my device. Restart the app solve this.

Same situation as cocovina here. Mitakuuluu randomly consumes 100% of CPU, only workaround being to restart the app. It soon empties the battery otherwise.

The problem with Mitakuuluu and battery drain is known by the developer and will be fixed. The problem is caused when switching between networks (2G<->3G<->4G<->Wi-fi)

I think there must be some connection with the heating and draining with the browser lag. When the phone is functioning well; no battery drain or heating up also the browser works perfectly - even faster than ever before. And when something starts to cause the heating also the browser gets very laggy.

I have noticed that sailfish-browser seems consistently to take CPU cycles noticeable more than Android Firefox when displaying same web page. For example, my regularly visited newsite hs.fi pages seem to consume cpu like 3..5 % vs < 1 % reported by crest.

I do have adblocking blacklist hosts file in place on Sailfish side and for Android I use Firefox Adblock extension which may or may not to be related.

Overall I do have noticed that sailfish-browser is often the process that consumes most cpu cycles. I do not use mitakuuluu or facebook services.

look at my workaround: Install the App Lighthouse (should be in Store). Open Lighthouse and choose Processes, make sure that the list is sorted by CPU Usage (Pulley menue). On top of the list there should be the process tracker-store - long-click on it, choose "kill". The process should be gone and shouldn't reappear till restart.

So in my case CPU Usagw is nearly zero in Idle and device isn't getting that hot anymore

your device isn't getting that hot anymore for next reboot. and this solve don't help with camera and internet usage. Francesco have problem too.

maybe one of the development team could help us ;)

dunno. we need more vote :) and people don't following this question :(

Hej,

maybe it's a 4G issue? As far as I know the 2/3/4G switch application that I came across in Warehouse explained that 4G mode should only be enabled while being connected to power source because of the high energy consumption... and that could also be related to the high temperature next to the cam (although I don't know which part of the phone is where).

Greetings - Lutwolf

Did your device also get hot during drain?

just for the record, not all is affected. My jolla works fine after update. I use no mobile internet though.

yeah I think it's hardly connected to the new feature LTE and changed connection settings or so...

For the 'rild' issue: https://together.jolla.com/question/45663/process-rild-usergroup-radio-has-more-than-100-cpu-usage-drains-battery/

i have the same Problem. my jolla gets very hot, sometimes i cant even touch the back (its not the accu, its behind camera). the capazity of my accu is very low: only 4 hours with normal usage. and my cellphone restarts several times.

contacts sometimes not working, maybe this is connected to the not working XMPP account

apps always need a third or fourth try to open.

rebooted a few times, activated.and deactivated different options - nothing helped :(

maybe try removing and readding your jolla account.

tracker-store doesn't have anything to do with the Jolla store, FYI.

nothing happend... without account only d.process.media had 34% after readding the process reappeard :/

Linux Forum says it is a process indicating files and stuff...

Did your device also get that hot with prefered 3G?

yes, but i think what my problem was linked to the performance of GPS module. I set to attach coordinates to the photo. and I suspect that the gps module is not working correctly.

There is a known issue about the AGPS location availability being slow/impartial over 4G. It was part of the release note IIRC.

AGPS work quick and fine. But quick location have radius 100m :)

I'm new user of Jolla phone. I came from good old N8 with round 4 days of akku, sometimes 7 days if i went to offline mode on night and didn't phone much. So I only know the update 1.0.7.xx and I found it embarrassing that the battery dropped a few % all 5-10 mins when wifi is on. I decided to use my umts internet connection to go online and it was "ok" for me, 30% battery drain on one day with some ideling but using the phone. Calls didn't seem to be the issue, but when wifi is switched on or I use terminal to fix wlan in the university it drained 50% of battery yesterday. Today at home I updated the android support and other apps I have from the shop. Now wifi is switched on since 2 hours, I have apps running as I always have and it just drained from 11% to 10%. Maybe the updates fixed something, hopefully this is it, so please share ur experience.

Btw: The tasks rild and tracker store are up and running but dont seem to use as much ram/cpu as u say

Still having issue... keep watching over phone as if it were a sick puppy, waiting to see if it has a temperature. Annoying. Last update seems to be the cause, but is there no solution?

So far my problems has gone away.Battery level drops about 40% in 24h with my normal use (without 4G, wifi and 3G on).

Is there anybody else who was able to fix the issue by doing a complete reset? I would like to avoid delete all my data, apps, settings etc. on the phone to find out nothing changed ;-)

Hej, I have been "off the grid" for more than 36 hours with normal usage. My charge indicator reads now 67%. Pre-conditions: a whole night in flight mode, last 1 hour on charger. The Jolla was fully charged when charger was disconnected. WLAN and mobile data were left on during active hours (during the night, the data connections were off) in 2G only mode. It definitely has something to do with flight mode. Before that it was like 35-40% in the evening when phone was 100% charged in the morning.

I got Problems with both version, so connman didn't change anything in this topic... in my case.
