Bug description
I installed Signal a few days ago, but it consumes close to 50% of my battery, more than all my other apps combined, when I barely even used it (answered one short call, sent and received < 5 messages). I'm on grapheneOS so no google services and no microG. I posted the issue on reddit, and one person also on grapheneOS showed me a screenshot where Signal took 7% of their battery, with about the same time since full charge. Battery optimization is off, I can't even turn it on. App runs constantly in foreground (which I assume is normal for the websockets).
Steps to reproduce
- use Signal with no google services or microG
Actual result: Signal takes between 40 and 50% of battery life Expected result: Signal should take ~10% of battery life

Can you say if disabling battery optimization still doesn't improve anything?

Battery optimization is already off, and I can't turn it on anyway (the option is grayed out)
Update: I switched to wifi recently instead of 4g, and the battery consumption has been much better since.
Here's the debug log in wifi: https://debuglogs.org/826d0a11eed1b55bbaf8d858247cae6615a7f74f3efe3a99d091d700371ead10 I noticed I don't have the java.io.EOFException anymore, I'm not sure if this is related to my problem.
I switched back to 4g: https://debuglogs.org/68c5e8bba6b9c80ae09e996b91e4059e7c9c5fe410c9b92afb0babe56057b8ad and I had 4 of these errors in 30 minutes.
Update : I reinstalled GrapheneOS (without Google Services / MicroG) and Signal this week and the behavior is strictly the same as the one reported in this thread. In wifi, no problem of battery consumption. In 4G, excessive battery consumption.
Last month, when I tested GrapheneOS and therefore Signal above, I encountered the same problem : excessive battery consumption. Something to know and that I have in common with someone1239: my provider is a french provider (Sosh/Orange in my case) I had not tested in wifi but as someone1239 tested and that it was better, maybe the provider is at fault.
I have the same problem with Signal 4.67.3 (6802), battery usage by the app is very high. Here is my log given after a little time since boot: https://debuglogs.org/b2e0271e025f80209847b46d4aac52142da8320e8ad3f93045ca9fbeca61fb28
There are a lot of "java.io.EOFException" . It looks like 55000ms keep alive alarm is not working.
There are a lot of "java.io.EOFException" . It looks like 55000ms keep alive alarm is not working.
Update. This problem and this message were caused by additional app to force Doze mode.
However, even with 55000 ms timer working, battery drain is about 1%/hour. At that, there are two threads, that awake in 55 sec timeout each (you can see it in log), and after some period of running they "loose synchronization", so device wakes twice in a 55 sec.
It seems they are running in IncomingMessageObserver class inside of localPipe and unidentifiedLocalPipe objects. Is it possible, to use only one keep alive thread to save battery?
Same problem for me with Signal 4.69.6 on a Nexus 5X This issue exists since 2017 and is still not resolved ? Or signal-service-java is a solution?
Isn't this a duplicate of https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android/issues/8658 ?
Isn't this a duplicate of #8658 ? My phone use Cyanogenmod / android 6.0.1 without any google services. It should be the same problem as described for Lineage on #8658 ....
same problem, ( wifi only no problems )

My excessive drainage disappeared after downgrading to a version of omnirom without microg. (No gapps) Only other thing I did was downgrading magisk to v. 21.3.
After having had this issue on several lineageOS and a shiftOS-L device (all without gapps) I looked at the corresponding implementations of other opensource android messenger apps. While Signal opens a web socket connection in a foreground process and places a sticky notification to ensure it staying active, other apps tend to go with a polling method using an alarm timer to wake up every 5 to 15 minutes to check for new messages before going back to sleep again.
As a test, I tried to replicate something similar in Signal: Close websocket connection if backgrounded, reconnect every 5 minutes or while app is in foreground. This mitigates the problem somewhat. With this method Signal still uses 3 to 5 times more battery than other messenger apps, but it came down to around 12% from 60% or more on a full charge of my samsung s6 with lineageOS (opening connection every 5 minutes). This is still not good but bearable:
https://github.com/Bean-Beret/Signal-Android/commit/fda5ebec10fc90c45c47c5452f08006aff58f6b6 This code is just a "proof of concept" and is not meant to be considered finished (I am no java or android developer).
Downside to a polling mechanism like this is, that voice calls will be missed if the app is running in background (it will notify about a missed call as soon as it is polling, however.
This will not be a replacement to the method Signal implements. People may prefer to have instant delivery of messages and calls over battery efficiency. However, it could be an alternative: What I could think of, is offering an advanced option to enable a such a method of periodic connection, instead of the original method (only if no gapps are detected). So people with the battery drain problem could chose it if they want.
I know that Signal does not want more options by development ideology and implementing a mechanism like this might not be a solution to the root cause of the problem, but thinking of this issue being present since years and popping up again all the time, a workaround could be appropriate.
There is an idea, how decrease power consumption without breaking calls.
So, it seems for now battery consumed because of two reasons:
-
Radio module, that is always active. At that, it seems, phones with GApps should keep it working all time.
-
CPU, that active about 1 second each minute, because Signal send packet to the server and await response.
Reason 1 exists in Googled phones also, and, it seems, it doesn't consume too much battery. So, we can assume, that reason 2 is the main problem.
I have the following suggestion: Use UDP instead of TCP to check notifications.
In this case Signal will wake up, send a keep alive packet and go to sleep while waiting for a response. Server can send keep alive response in the same moment when request received, or, may be, await for 30 seconds before sending it, or, may be doesn't send it at all (if one-way "ping" is enough to keep mobile connection on). So, Signal will not wait for response in active state and consume CPU. This may help.
In other words I suggest implement something like Google push notifications for one specific app without using Google servers.
Also have those battery drain on a Huawei phone (P40) without GMS... Would also prefer a better battery life over instant notification. 👏
Using UDP is actually a good idea. Probably that's they way whatsapp does it, where delays were never an issue, but we will never know... This would also require a server-side change which I doubt signal-staff will implement, as we de-googled users are (yet) a very small minority and not all of us encounter this issue, nevertheless.
However, I created a build with the above-mentioned workaround (periodic fetch) based on @tw-hx FOSS fork, which also lets you send locations on de-googled devices using OSM.
It still is a hacky "fix", but if you like, you can kick the tires: https://github.com/Bean-Beret/Signal-Android/actions/workflows/fossbuild.yml
There is a branch with 5 minute and one with 10 minute periodic fetch. On a shift5me phone with shiftOS-L the 5 minute version was enough to get the battery drain lower than the one of threema or telegram. On a galaxy S6 with lineageOS 14 the 10 minute version is necessary to do the same.
I do not find enough time right now to work on this to derive a proper feature/pull request. So if anyone would like to catch up from here, please do.
One more suggestion.
Signal with MicroG services doesn't consume battery. Phone battery drain in sleep state reduced about 3 times comparing to that one without GAPPS/MicroG. So, MicroG can be used as a reference implementation for client side.
Samsung S7 on wifi. I chatted a buddy around lunchtime. We exchanged a couple of memes. Now, 3 hours later, this.
All good points and I find very high websocket battery use too.
The underlying issue appears to be that some mobile networks don't exempt Signal's connection from early closure (they do for Google and a few others) so Signal has to send keepalives every 55 seconds. Both the server and the client have a short idle timeout ~1 min.
Two potential fixes:
- As @ioctl-user suggested above, perhaps optimise the wake threads so that they are at most once per minute, if this is an issue.
- Extend the server idle timeout to 10 minutes, and adjust the client to send keepalives once per minute on cell networks and once every 10 minutes on WiFi, as WiFi networks are presumably better behaved with long lived connections. Conversations, an Android XMPP client, uses a 10 minute timeout for all its communications and has good community feedback.
Same issue. Pixel 2. Graphene OS no google. Signal uses 10% of battery in 4 hours. Phone was 100% charged and sitting idle and unused. No option to optimize battery use as its greyed out.
I'm running Signal with MicroG and still see a significant idle drain that only goes away once I use Greenify to hibernate Signal. So I can't really confirm that everything's fine wiht MicroG running as a Play services replacement.

May be Signal is not using MicroG in your case? Check the "FCM" status in Signal log, it should be "true".
If it's not, you can try reconfiguring MicroG or reinstalling Signal and reregister on server.

The log is indeed showing FCM as "false". I'll try to change that and report back :)
Problem still persists if not connected to WiFi. Pixel 5 with GrapheneOS, no Google.
With MicroG Signal needs to be forced to use it on my device via pref_gcm_disabled = false in org.thoughtcrime.securesms_preferences.xml on my device. That solves the battery drain with MicroG.
However since a few months Signal then unregisters itself every few weeks. So I guess that setting breaks something else.
Signal is also draining my battery super fast. The log isn't conclusive. Sometimes it seems to wake up right after setting the timer and then there's lots of garbage location ongoing:

Actually, since the recent websocket refactoring in 5.17 and 5.19: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android/commit/5d6d78a51e007142b8d58a36feeaafcb01262949 https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android/commit/712b0c147a8d4d4b5fc8f2bbb506bc62f33518ae
I've found battery drain to have improved over the day versus before. Thanks, Cody and the Signal team!
Just as another data point: I face the same issue with my Fairphone 3+ with /e/ os, android 10, and Signal 5.17.3. Upgrading to Signal 5.19 is not yet offered by Apps. Crossing fingers that this will improve the situation!
SuperfreezZ [1] and similar apps help, but will of course disable push notifications and cause some inconveniences elsewhere.

@3hhh I've noticed that GCM isn't registering Signal since version 4.77.3...
What's the process of forcing new versions to use it? I mean do you go through the whole phone number registration process, and then set the pref_gcm_disabled flag to false, or is there anything else you do?
