Power consumption in Connected Standby Mode too high with no obvious cause even in airplane mode

My Windows 8.1 tablet is draining at a rate of about 3% per hour or 833mW drain while in connected standby mode.
I have muted the sound and set the system to airplane mode, but still receive 3% drain per hour.
The PEP PRE-VETO rate and COUNT are 0. The DRIPS Histopgram has 100% at 32s. The top 5 offenders are all green with 0% active time.
The only value I am unsure about is IR TRUNCATE PERCENTAGE which on Microsoft's examples is always 0, but on my device it is 91% or higher. What does this mean?
Also is there anyway to find out why even though the sleepstudy looks fine I am getting such a high battery drain even with everything off in airplane mode?

Hi Tesmond
We might need more details about your device such as mode and Manufacturers.
And please keep your system, device driver and firmware up to date for good measure.
I think you are using sleep study to trace power usage. I didn’t found any information about IR TRUNCATE PERCENTAGE. I am supposing IR stand for Infrared. So we suggest you check if these is infrared port/connection device on your tablet.
Also confirm this issue with manufacturers to check if it is known issue caused by firmware or device driver.

  • On a BMI flight yesterday, they informed us that the iphone could no longer be used on the plane even in  airplane mode becase of a CAA ruling. Is this true?

    On a BMI flight yesterday, the 4th jan 2012,they informed us that the iphone could no longer be used on the plane even in  airplane mode becase of a CAA ruling. Is this true? I t lead to a boring flight without my podcasts.

    I believe airlines can interpret as they see fit.See underlined comment below!

    General Policy: Use of non-Transmitting PEDs
    Whilst the use of all PEDs is prohibited during the taxi, take-off and landing phases of flight, (when the passenger seat belt sign is on), use of PEDs that only produce spurious emissions are often permitted during the cruise phase of flight. However, the aircraft crew may require PED use to be suspended at any time, and such a request must be obeyed. Such a case might be if the crew suspects that the PED use is the cause of interference with aircraft systems.
    Examples of PEDs that might be permitted to be used during the cruise phase of flight includes:
    laptop computers, PDAs and MP3 players (as long as they do not include wireless transmitting functions); and
    electronic games, DVD players, CD players, cassette players, video or "still" cameras and calculators.
    The use of some mobile phones or PDAs is also permitted by some airlines as long as they are used in the "flight safe" mode only, and this mode is enabled before the PED is turned off before the start of the flight, so that it is already within the “flight safe” mode when it is turned back on in the permitted phase of flight.The restriction on the use of PEDs applies to devices carried onboard by the passenger or provided to the passenger by the crew. It does not apply to time measuring equipment (watches etc.) or implanted medical devices (pacemakers etc.). Any medical devices that include a monitoring feature that includes a transmitting function to a medical centre should have this transmitting feature switched off during the flight – see general policy on use of transmitting PEDs.
    General Policy: Use of Transmitting PEDs
    The use of PEDs that intentionally transmit for the purposes of data transfer or vocal communication is generally prohibited for the duration of the flight. This is due to the level of EM Radiation generated during the communication process being greater than that caused by the PEDs' spurious emissions, which are normally tolerated.Examples of intentionally transmitting PEDs that are generally prohibited are:
    mobile phones, personal computer equipment with wireless wide, local or personal area network (WWAN, WLAN or WPAN) devices, radio transmitters and remote control equipment (which may include some toys).
    Some airlines may accept the use of low power devices conforming to the Bluetooth standard during the cruise phase of flight. The transmissions of these have been shown to be no greater than the host PED's spurious emissions.
    Some aircraft are equipped with WiFi type Wireless Local Area Networks. In such cases, compatible devices may be used during the cruise phase of flight. Use is not permitted on aircraft not equipped with this feature.
    Some aircraft are now equipped to enable mobile phones to be used. Details can be found in the section on Mobile phones. On all aircraft not equipped with these systems, use of mobile phones is prohibited for the entire duration of the flight.

  • Muvo - volume is too high with new firmw

    Hi.
    I have a Muvo TX 52 mb with usb2.0, and when i upgraded the firmware to .3.something some months ago i got a problem:
    I cant decrease the volume enough with the new firmware!:angry: With the old firmware was volume setting "" very low, and the maximum volume wasnt very high. The new firmware has better mawimum volume but the minimum volume is too high... :-S Hope you understand what i mean.
    Today i tried the latest firmware again, .2.02, but its STILL too high volume!
    This is really driving me crazy, and propably i would need an OLD firmware (which is much worse in other ways), but i cant find any old firmware too download.
    Please help me. Thanks!

    I've mailed tech support now. If anyone has old firmware install, _please_ let me konwMessage Edited by muvotx on 07-03-2006 06:27 PM

  • Deleted emails reappear in inbox on iPad and iPhone even in airplane mode

    Whenever I delete either read or unread emails from my inbox on both iPad and iPhone 4 they re-appear in the inbox between 30 seconds and 1 minute later. I've seen other posts suggesting this might be due to the fact that I'm leaving my mails on the server so I switched my iPad to Airplane mode so that it couldn't check the server, I then deleted an email and sure enough 30 secs later it re-appeared.
    Does anybody have a fix?

    ok.

  • Can't use quick reply mode in Vbulletin with Firefox 24.0 - Quick reply editor mode doesn't appear

    Hi,
    Currently I realized that with vb 4.2.1 that if i click on "Edit" on my profile or on a forum post or a thread, i don't see the quick reply editor, i get instead redirected right away to the advance full editor page. Quick reply doesn't load.
    This happened right away after I upgraded to Firefox 24.0 It is also been reported by our members forum.nihonomaru.com
    On Chrome this issue doesn't happen, only on firefox latest update. It is also been reported by many of our members. I use the latest FF version 24.0
    Is there a way to fix this?
    I did disable my plugins going safe mode and still the same issue. Also on vb i did disable the plugin and did everything Vbulletin recommended and still the same issue. So it is been determined that it is the latest Firefox 24.0 release. Before, Firefox use to work fine with the quick editor.
    Thanks,
    Rina

    Because GPS has nothing to do with WiFi, cellular signals, or data of any sort. GPS is implemented by signals sent by satellites that are received by GPS receivers. The receivers process the information from the GPS satellites and calculate your location. GPS never sends data anywhere; GPS functionality is receive only.
    If you have WiFi or cellular data turned on this can improve the accuracy of GPS, because the GPS receiver can then use the known location of cell towers and WiFi networks to refine the GPS location. GPS by itself has an accuracy of 10 meters, or about 34 feet. Using the additional information from WiFi and cellular data this can be brought down to 3 meters (10 feet). This mode is called Augmented GPS, or A-GPS.

  • "Power off retract count" is WAAAAAAy too high!

    I just purchased a refurbished (Black) Macbook 2.4 ghz with a 250 gig FUJITSU MHY2250BH HDD.
    HDD passes SMART.
    HDD often makes a subtile clicking noise. Sometimes the click is ever few seconds, sometimes it does not happen at all.
    I used an application called "SMART Utility" to look at the particulars of the drive.
    I FOUND SOMETHING VERY ODD:
    the HDD's "Power off retract count" is very high. The actual number is 458,760.....yes, almost half of a million.
    Can anyone help me or add some information about this?

    Hi Kappy, thanks for the info.
    I did a bit more reading of the FAQ for the app. "SMART Utility" and that huge number might not be the actual number.
    To quote the FAQ:
    "Q4. What are the differences between threshold, worst, value, and raw numbers in the attributes window, and why do some attributes show a super high value, like 426900000?
    A4. The raw number is the actual, real value of the attribute. How the drive measures it is up to the manufacturer. Some put the data in a human readable format (for example, 50 in Temperature Celsius for 50 degrees Celsius), while others have a proprietary format for the data, which may be display as an extremely high number. This varies for each attribute, some are human readable, some are not. So if a number is unusually high, it's possibly not a human readable number. So how does one figure out if an attribute is okay if the raw number is in a proprietary format?
    Well, that's where the other three numbers come in: “threshold”, “worst”, and “value”. “value” is the normalized equivalent of the raw data, converted internally to a number between 0 and 255 and displayed. The manufacturer defines a threshold number against which the “value” is compared, and if the “value” drops below that threshold, SMART reports that attribute as FAILING_NOW, and sets the overall health as FAILED. That is how SMART determines the status of the drive. Sometimes the “value” falls below the “threshold”, but then rises again. This is shown as an Inthepast failure, and SMART Utility marks this as a FAILING status. The final number, “worst”, shows how low the value actually got. This is probably the best way to tell just how bad the raw number is. If it is close to the threshold, the drive may be failing."
    However, what lead me to use this utility is a subtile, yet irritating "click" that my HDD often makes. The sound could be described as "a ping pong ball being dropped on a hard surface." If one looks around in this forum and on the greater web, it seems others are baffled about this "Mystery sound." It is often attributed to the "head(s) parking" on the HDD. What is odd is that some people hear the sound and others do not. What is also odd, for me in particular, is that I took some steps to minimize the "head parking" of my HDD by temporarily installing "hdapm" and this did absolutely nothing to minimize the click sound of the "heads parking." So I also tried another temporary experiment and completely disabled the "sudden motion sensor" because I read that this feature may cause the noisy click of the heads parking. This measure, also, did absolutely nothing to minimize the click of the heads parking.
    So, I am at a loss. However I am still annoyed by the noise of the somewhat loud click(s) of my HDD's head parking which may be caused by an over aggressive power saving mechanism that may be built into the drive itself.
    If anyone can add to this discussion, I'll be happy to soak up the info.

  • Having to power down and do a restart too often with my iPhone 5.

    In the eight months I have had my iPhone 5 I have had to power down and do a restart six times to resolve a repetetive problem.  The problem becomes apparent when the phone loses its keypad touch sounds and the alarm app I use fails to go off in the morning. There are  probably other things happening as well, but these two are what I first notice and prompt me to do the restart.  The restart solves the problem but my question is why is this happening in the first place and is there a fix for it?  In the two+ years I had my iPhone 4 nothing like this ever happened.  I do leave the phone on all the time 24-7. 

    Try a reset:
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

  • Resolution too high with Reader X standard

    We installed Reader X on our computers,  all of the sudden the file sizes of all of the pdf's are around 20 megs.  Can't find anywhere to adjust the resolution?

    If I right click on the file and look at properties.....
    If I convert any file to a pdf, whether converting word doc, or a jpg the new pdf takes forever to open, I assumed that meant the file size was now giant.  You are saying that it has nothing to do with the conversion to a pdf?

  • [SOLVED] Huge power consumption after kernel upgrade.

    Dear All,
    I have recently bought the new lenovo thinkpad X1 equipped with a Core I5 processors and 4GB of RAM.
    I am quite satisfied with this machine except for the fact that the fan is extremely loud (but perhaps a bios upgrade will fix problem).
    Now my problem:
    When I first installed Arch (first days of August) I ran powertop and the power consumption was around 10 Watts when idle with wifi card turned off.
    Now, after some upgrades, the power consumption raises to 18W in idle and consequently the battery lasts less than 2h.
    Here my current configuration:

    As far as I'm concerned, the kworker process is responsible most of the wakeups. 
    Any ideas?

    enabling it by default in 3.0 caused regressions for some people, so it was
    disabled. Hopefully Intel figures it out, and we can switch it back on by
    default in 3.1 / 2.6.41 (until then, you'll have to set it by hand).

  • Which is better in term of power consumption for L...

    Hello!
    I would like to know in terms of power consumption which connection type should I use on my Lumia 1020. 4G LTE or 3G. I'm not a person who watches movies on his smartphone, and I don't browse the Internet intensively using my smartphone. I use it to take pictures, check my e-mails, access Facebook, Twitter, Instagram  and Flickr.
    Thank you.

    3G is in general less power hungry.

  • Windows 8 Airplane Mode Greyed--Can't turn off, can't connect.

    My three week old X230 lost the ability to connect to my wifi router. I can pull up the airplane mode toggle with Fn+F5, but there is no response. I have done a factory reset, installed all Lenovo and Windows updates, uninstalled/reinstalled the intel wifi drivers. The lenovo utilities tells me the radio isn't turned on, but I can't figure out how to turn it on other than the usual ways, but they don't work. All is well in the hardware manager. I have reset the bios to default settings. I updated the bios  to 2.06 when I first got the machine, and it ran fine. I can connect via a network cable. help! Thanks

  • Gopro Hero 4 connected only in airplane mode

    I use GoPro app version 2.6.2 to connect my GoPro Hero 4 black.
    I had a problem to connect my camera to my iPhone. The GoPro support ask me to switch my iPhone to airplane mode and try to connect the camera. I did it and the camera and my iPhone was connected.
    The GoPro team told me that It seems that the reason I am having problem connecting to the camera in normal mode is because is there an interference , cause by my phone.
    My iPhone runs on iOs 8.1.
    I would appreciate any suggestion for this problem

    You have a solution. When you are done with the GoPro, simply turn off airplane mode and be happy.

  • Issue with Airplane Mode on legitimately unlocked iPhone

    Hi,
    I bought an iPhone in Australia from a distributor for one of the large carriers. I bought the white 16Gb outright and paid the fee to have the phone unlocked (as is permitted in Australia). It all worked well with both an Aus and a UK SIM card I had.
    The white plastic back then cracked so I took it to an Apple store where they replaced it. I told the Genius that I'd had it unlocked and he said no problems, etc, etc.
    He replaced the phone and I took it home, all seemed to work well. Again, with both SIMs.
    I installed the 2.2 firmware upgrade.
    Now to the troublesome bit.
    Sitting in Melbourne airport, about to leave Australia for some significant time, I swapped the SIMs over and the phone started complaining about needing to be connected to iTunes.
    I did this and it unlocked (again).
    Question 1: Do I really have to connect to iTunes every time I change the SIM?
    I replaced the SIM with my Aus one and turned the phone off to fly to Kuala Lumpur. On arrival in KL I swapped SIMs again, went through the hassle of connecting to iTunes to unlock.
    Then, as I wanted to use the phone on my net flight to watch movies and play Fuzzle, I turned on Airplane Mode with the UK SIM.
    The phone instantly complains about the SIM being changed and asks to be connected to iTunes. I did this (getting annoyed at this point)! This time, iTunes reports that the phone is fauly and I should take to an Apple Store
    I then replaced the SIM with my Aus one, and it all started working nicely again including allowing me to use Airporne Mode.
    Question 2: Why can't I use Airplane Mode when my UK SIM is installed?
    This seems like a bug to me, rather than some complication with Airplane mode. Surely if my phone has been unlocked and I can make calls with both SIMs, then I can use Airplane Mode regardless of which SIM I'm using?
    Added complication here is that I'm not going back to Australia for a while (maybe years), so unless Apple are nice to me and decide that the phone is faulty and will replace it in the UK, I'm going to be left with an expensive, and white, iPod Touch.
    Cheers for any suggestions,
    Ian

    I don't think the problem lies specifically with the SIM card, but with the software on the phone.
    I would appreciate others trying to replicate my problem with their iPhones. Simple steps (requireing an unlocked iPhone) are...
    1. Insert original SIM card (all should be fine)
    2. Remove orginal SIM card and replace with second carrier SIM
    3. Sync with iTunes to get the phone working again.
    4. Either turn on Airplane Mode or turn the phone off and on again.
    5. The phone (at least mine) will require you to connect to iTunes again.
    Turning on Airplane Mode or turning the phone off and on with the original SIM card inserted doesn't lead to this behaviour.
