keepassdroid drains battery when left in background #149

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Open a password file with keepassdroid
2. Switch to another application without exiting KPD

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Withing 20-25 minutes battery will go from 100% to empty

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
KPD: 1.8.6.4  Android: 2.2.1 Build: FRG83D

Please provide any additional information below.
It already happened twice. I forget to exit the app and the battery is gone in 
no time. Is the app polling constantly?

I'm not able to replicate this. The app does not do any kind of constant 
polling.

Can you try leaving the app in the foreground, wait 10 minutes then go to Home 
screen > settings > battery use. See if it is Keepassdroid eating up your 
battery?

Unfortunately it is not reproducible at will. It happened to me only twice and 
in both cases I had the application open. Since I use keepassdroid so rarely I 
was able to correlate the battery drainage to the app. I remember though that 
when I checked for the app that killed my battery the battery use did not show 
the name keepassdroid but if I remember correctly it showed a 3 letter name and 
1 digit. I really cannot recall the name. That app showed 19% battery usage.

Now that I am thinking about it, is it possible there is an interaction problem 
between KPD and DropBox? I keep my password file on DropBox so they way I use 
it is that I first start DropBox and then click on the password file in order 
to open it with KPD.

I was never able to reproduce this.

I am having the same battery draining issue. I am using the latest version of 
the app on Galaxy Nexus.

I could never reproduce this. In 1.9.17, even the briefly running service that 
KeePassDroid uses has been removed. 

It should be impossible now for the app to wake up the phone from sleep.

Same problem with the latest 1.9.18.3 installed today. Drained the battery in 
about thee hours. GSam records show Keepass used 22% of the power during that 
time (although it was NOT running in the foreground and the phone was in 
standby with the screen off.)

Twice in the past couple of months: Keepass 1.9.18.3 drained my battery in a 
matter of hours while it whas not even been started and the phone was on 
standby. Definitely an issue there.
