I recently updated bunch of stuff only to notice huge battery drain.
The culprit is the following process: 786 root 2088 R /bin/sh -e -c echo 120 > /sys/class/i2c-adapte

Anyone know what it is? I don't want to kill it every time i restart my device.

some script (most probably in /etc/event.d) is trying to max your fmtx power, no need to do it with KP50, it is by default 120.

Curiously, one of the updates was KP50.
Thanks for the answer, i'll start looking for the said script.
Any idea on how to find which file executed the process with PS, TOP or any other tool?

-edit-

Nevermind, found it. Its /etc/event.d/fmtxpower if anyone else is interested.

thanks again.

It wasn't it. Renamed the said script but the process still gets executed on the next boot.

Any ideas on how i could find the files asocciated with the process?

goto fapman and uninstall anything that says anything about boosting fm power i.e. fmboost. Then reboot. And check again.

it does not matter what is the name, as long as it is int /etc/event.d it will be executed upon boot. Move it somewhere else or simply delete it
