tohd.service still battery-hungry? [answered]

Officially the tohd-power issue is a long closed bug - I know.

Since I have my Jolla in March 2014, I made it a habit to turn off tohd.service and aliendalvik.service immediately after a reboot - but sometimes I forget to do it.

Today my battery dropped again in 8 hours from 100% to 40% while at work with barely touching the phone. After yesterday evening's reboot and connecting the charger before going to sleep - I forgot to turn off tohd and aliendalvik this morning.

It is not the first time since Paarlampi and Saapunki-update, that I have the bad feeling, tohd.service (and associated NFC?) still drain a lot of energy.

Is anybody else still experiencing this?

No problems here

No problems here either. The battery lasts the same as it did with tohd.service turned off. Two days with 3g data on, email syncing every two hours from three different sources, and no messaging apps online. Also ~5 hours of surfing in the net.

I am suddenly experiencing the same problem.

I recently started shutting down aliendalvik with killdroid and my battery consumption is now around 10-15% per 24h. During the week the phone mainly just sits on my desk at work, with wifi, 3G and email syncing on. I tend to not keep many apps open, so lighthouse reports user space applications using max 1-2% cpu most of the time. Haven't looked at how much system services eat though.

Can anybody confirm 2Ti's findings. So it is actually the android layer and not tohd?

are you using mitakuuluu? sometimes when there is no internet connection it uses 100% cpu, draining your battery in a couple of hours.

Yes! I do use mitakuuluu and I noticed it using up to 20% CPU at work (behind thick walls were mobile internet connection often drops to 2G). Thing is - I work in frequently changing environments and it's only this week I am at this place.

Thank you very much for this idea and answer!!
