Lately my phone has had mediaserver at the top of my battery use list, even with screen on for over an hour and a half. I looked at the stats for it yesterday, it said I received 1187.55mb in just 29 minutes.. is this normal?

Do you stream music from pandora or another music app? If so, from my understanding that may be why mediaserver is at the top of you battery usage

Let's try again... Has anyone noticed games like this eating battery before? This thing seems to have eaten 36% of my battery in less than 30 minutes.

Recently I had some process called Mediaserver eating more battery than the screen. I fixed this by uninstalling music and removing all of my songs (lousy solution btw) but now BBS states that there is a wakelock called audio out eating all my battery which is just really weird.
Anyone have solutions for this?

For the longest I've had this Media Server issue that would drain my battery by 35% or more and I think I may have figured out how to kill this S.O.B. Go to Settings>under account select Google>click on account> then where it says Google Play Music let it sync once then unselect it.. Haven't seen in since..
Update: Also received this from user: @xdafoundingmember seems to have killed it completely. Thank you sir https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rrr.android.mediaserverkiller

got it!!
OK, so mediaserver was killing my battery too. I did some digging with the digging being geared towards media and serving information. Turns out, for me anyway, that the Google play store was using twice the amount if background data as it was foreground data so, I checked the box to restrict background data and vioala!!!! Mediaserver went from using over forty percent to, now, 3 percent. I've been on battery all day from 8am, it's eleven now and I'm at 81 percent writing this.
I had mediaserver killer set to kill on screen on and I had camera FC issues so I set it to intervals and now it's great. Just FYI for those who use it.
Since my Bluetooth connected to my car this is killing my battery.
Tried to.stop the service but it's greyed out.
No music is playing,have restarted phone.
Killing my battery. Please can someone help me diagnose how to kill it

Still have no idea why really could do with advice

If I'm correct that's basically if you are playing music and such throughout the Bluetooth than that is the media that's killing your phone
Edit: it actually has the name of things that are causing the media

Just curious if 2.5-3% drain an hour is the norm. This is with location off, sync off, Wi-Fi most of the time, auto brightness.

Depends on phone configuration and check if you have a wake lock.

Also depends what you're doing, just sat on the home screen will use much less power than streaming music.
6 hours screen a per charge seems to be the normal.

I don't even get 3% drain with 6 hours of 'sleep' time with location/sync/wifi on.
You're asking about drain, as in if you're not using the phone?
Yeah, that is not even using the phone. I greenify everything save alarm app and textra
