G+_Rob Locke Posted May 6, 2016 Share Posted May 6, 2016 (EDITED: NOTE - PROBLEM RESOLVED and does note exist in the latest version of the app) Hey folks, I hope I can save some of you the agony of tracking down battery drain that I just had to go through. For the last few weeks, I noticed that my phone was always "awake" in the battery stats. Since the phone isn't rooted, Wakelock detector didn't help. So I went through item by item removing apps. Eventually, I found that when I turned off Bluetooth, the phone could sleep. After much Googling, I learned that the CVS app had this problem so I removed it - Problem Solved! Two things: - if you're having problems with the phone being stuck awake, try turning off Bluetooth. If this works, then some app is misusing that capability which will help you track it down. - Definitely remove the CVS app until they fix it. I'm wondering if anybody keeps a repository of apps known to have problems with Wake lock. It would save a lot of Android users much time if a resource like this were available. If such a thing doesn't exist, I could volunteer to maintain a shared Google Spreadsheet with this information. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
