Samsung Gear S2 app average current and holdmode current

Hi,

My application is rejected by the Samsung test team with following information:

1.Current does not fall into under 4mA When application go to holdmode.
2.Average current is over 7mA When application go to holdmode.

<Procedure>
1. Execute application
2. Press HW Hold key 
3. Check how much current was consumed and Wait 5 miniute.

<Exepected result>
1.App's current consumption must be low under 4mA while app go to hold mode.
2.App's average current consumption must be low under 7mA while app go to hold mode.

I am not sure how I can change the average current that my app uses or holdmode current.

I also don't know how to measure this by any way.

Is there any information about this?

How can I solve it?

 

Thanks.

Hi,

It seems that device couldn't go to sleep state while your application was running.

Have you used any power related api in your code?

Hello,

Agree with Daniel,

make sure that your application releases the allocated resources when switching holdmode.

ok. but ;

how do I understand "holdmode", what is it ?

and what resources ? my app only uses screen and then uses http to send commands to a server.

I'd appreciate any help.

Hi,

When I pressed a hardware button of Gear S2 while application is running, I could see watchface and the screen is off after that.

I think that the device is going to sleep mode after a while for power consumption. 

I would suggest you refer to below help page of IDE.

I really couldn't find out what the problem is on my app.

Should I stop all timers when the screen is off ?

 

Btw, I would like to test before applying for certification. And for that I need Dynamic Analyzer.

But it doesn't monitor real S2 device saying security issue.

I need to use Emulator with the Dynamic Analyzer, is that right ?
