It's even happening while watching a YouTube video. Could this also be aggressive switching between 2.4 and 5GHz? Edit: I'm also getting a message to please disable airplane mode on my first call attempt after waking my phone. So, interesting test, can you make your wpa_supplicant_overlay.conf match this? https://github.com/LineageOS/android_device_motorola_nash/blob/lineage-17.1/wifi/wpa_supplicant_overlay.conf See if that helps anything.

(It looks similar on the rooted) - note also the x on the WiFi, Mobile data, the screen dump is taken shortly after unlocking with fingerprint. Roughly at ratio 7:4 or a factor 175% And no, there aren't additional stuff running. I checked with Greenify and Android Assistant and only a few user and system apps I explicitly have white-listed are running This screenshot makes me think you have a persistent VPN (blockada or similar?) can you try without that? Recent QCACLD merge may be the issue - I've heard of issues with persistent VPN's after that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

There was no rebase between test20 and test21 so the kernel history is linear and both tags appear in a simple log. The qcacld merge was complete for test20. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Well to give you some valid data I would have to flash a phone with Test20, without the VPN, wait a day or so, and then flash Test21, wait a day or so... So it will clearly be faster to see if someone else without VPN have a battery monitor installed, and see the same difference switching from Test20 to Test21. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My first thought is to remove all the power related changes and just take the cleanup changes until we test more thoroughly. I'll post later after I discuss with him. Actually, scratch that. I've got other stuff I need to do today and Nolen just received his Pro1 an hour ago. So I'll let him have a go at this for a while. He's already got several things fixed, including fixing the display density, enabling the camera button by default, and fixing the fingerprint location image in the setup wizard. He should be able to track down the WiFi and power issues also. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EskeRahn 5,421 Posted July 15, 2020 Share Posted July 15, 2020 ....sorry for the random order it ended in. Note that GSAM has a bug, so any traffic through VPN is logged as WiFi, even if you turn off WiFi completely. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Could you point me to the directory where this file is supposed to be on my phone please? 😅 Edit: okay... found it in /vendor/etc/wifi Okay... added 6 lines since the first 3 were already there. Rebooted and checked, if the modification was still there. Will keep an eye on WiFi behavior. Edit 2: So WiFi is now indeed way more stable for me. I have yet to see the WiFi symbol with an X and mobile data activating LTE. There were still a few hiccups with youtube though briefly showing offline/reconnected during playback.

tdm 2,322 Posted July 15, 2020 Author Share Posted July 15, 2020 Nobody said anything about test20 having any issues, but it also had the qcacld merge (the WiFi driver update in the kernel). I'm wondering if someone could download and flash the test19 and test20 boot images and see how they work with the test21 build. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Good to know, thank you. That implies that the qcacld updates are fine and it is Ethan's power stuff that is causing problems. On the other hand, @npjohnson is seeing the WiFi stabilize when he takes test21 and backs out the qcacld updates. So the culprit is still not entirely clear. Unless perhaps both are causing issues...? Edited July 15, 2020 by tdm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
tdm 2,322 Posted July 16, 2020 Author Share Posted July 16, 2020 (edited) FYI ... for better/quicker battery drain info, look at this file: /sys/devices/soc/800f000.qcom,spmi/spmi-0/spmi0-02/800f000.qcom,spmi:qcom,pmi8998@2:qpnp,fg/power_supply/bms/charge_now_raw I'm not sure what the units are, but I'm charging my battery to 100% now to get an idea. It's roughly one million at 52% charge. You can check that value, do something to test (like leave the phone to sleep) for about 10 to 30 minutes, then check the value again. Divide by the seconds elapsed and you have a drain rate. You could even script it. Edit: the value maxes out at 2499526 on my device. So that's roughly 793 per mAh. Yours may or may not be different.

tdm 2,322 Posted July 16, 2020 Author Share Posted July 16, 2020 Ethan believes that he has tracked down the problem (hopefully the only one). I'll build and test and hopefully have a test22 build on the morning (12 hours from now). 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

marmistrz 93 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 (edited) As for GitHub issues, we probably should have a single keyboard issues metabug. I've noticed several issues with the current state of the hw kbd support, some of them are scattered across several issues, some not reported yet no way to turn off autocapitalization fn isn't sticky (but probably should) double shift acts as caps lock (but shouldn't, because we have a hw caps lock key) custom keymaps are broken under LineageOS: fn & alt are not respected. For instance, if the kcm maps alt+e/fn+e to ę, the sign ´ will be emitted anyway alt opens an emoji drawer (it's wrong, the keyboard label is fn+alt) currently alt acts as compose, but this probably should be configurable (for instance: alt for diacritic signs, super for compose) I'm willing to help if you guide me where to start hacking 🙂 Edited July 16, 2020 by marmistrz Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wheeljack 212 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 Sorry for the big delay between my updates: after taking the phone off the charger last night, it was not connected to WiFi and mobile again and it took on the same behaviour as before the changes to wpa_supplicant_overlay.conf. After turning on the phone this morning, WiFi was still spotty, so I tried flashing the the test19.img bootloader as suggested. Phone wouldn't start at all. Went back to test21.img and I'm relieved nothing is broken 😅 Now waiting for test22. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SteffenWi 139 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 (edited) Test21: Something weird is definetly going on with the WLAN connectivity. I don't have a SIM card in my Pro1 yet, so I'm only connected via WLAN. I setup the phone on test20, then did some tests (all fine) including having the phone in standby for ~4 hours and waking it up again. All good. Now on test21, after having the phone in standby for 4 hours and waking it up again it was connected to an open WLAN that has a worse signal strength than my own and I have never been connected to that network. Once I opened WLAN settings I had to disconnect from that open WLAN and connect to my own. Once that was done, I pressed the home button, the settings screen disappeared and the WLAN symbol disappeared as well. Upon opening WLAN settings again, I saw that I was disconnected. After connecting again, I switched over to Firefox and began browsing through news.google.com, clicked an article and right at that moment my WLAN was disconnected again. As for power usage, I used the app "AccuBattery". It splits into several categories (screen on, screen off, deep sleep and discharge speed in %/hour for screen on and screen off). Power usage with screen off is definetly lower in Test 21 with 0.3%/hour, while Test 20 had 0.5%/hour - this may be due to Wifi shenangians, by which I mean that being connected to a WLAN that has no internet access probably results in less power drawn and the phone may also have been disconnected entirely for some time while it was in deep sleep. Power usage with screen on is nearly twice as high though for Test21 with 21.8%/hour while Test20 had 12.4%/hour These values were obtained over a 5 hour time window in both cases with similiar uses (if anything I used test20 more because I may have fallen victim to the ol' reddit trap for a few minutes): Youtube in Firefox for ~1:30 minute, browsing the internet (just things like reddit, news.google.com, imgur...) for ~5 minutes, letting the phone sleep for 4 hours and then repeating the previous steps.

Hook 2,940 Posted July 16, 2020 Share Posted July 16, 2020 For what it's worth, I am just not seeing any problems with wifi connectivity and, although I am speaking anecdotally as I don't do much real battery monitoring, I am not noticing any unusual power drain. I am using Test21. I am in the US with a Qwerty model on the off chance that might make a difference. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
