Strange battery stats

Avast Mobile Security Avast Mobile Security for Android
1

Hi,

I’ve recently installed Avast Mobile Security on my rooted Nexus 4. Everything appears to be working exactly as I expected however, the phone’s battery stats are reporting some interesting figures.

If you take a look at the attached images, you’ll see Nucleotide (which is what I called the Avast service) apparently using a massive percentage of the battery. It’s not though - it is having no effect on battery life at all as far as I can tell. The percentage will continue to climb throughout the day.

The other image reporting CPU total, Keep awake and GPS is also inaccurate. GPS is reporting it’s been running for over an hour. It actually hasn’t been running at all - not even for 1 second. I always have GPS turned off and when I tested the locate feature within Avast, GPS still never turned itself on.

Has anyone else come across this same issue?

Sending feedback via AMS (everything checked) should be sufficient.
