Normally, after work, my battery would be around 85%, but all of a sudden, yesterday, my battery after work was only 24%. I am not sure what is the cause of this behavior. I installed apps like tripit, travelsafe, skyscanner, onthefly, but I don't think that should cause this.
I have tried the battery removal trick, but it hasn't worked. The phone wakes up every few minutes and therefore, drains a lot of battery. Could someone offer good insight into what is causing this and how to solve this permanently? Thanks.
I am on ICS LQ2 with speedmod kernel k3-3, and my battery was great even on ICS until yesterday.

According to the tings I've read, you should always unlock the screen before removing the charger and if the problem persists just do a reboot.
That's what always works for me - on Speedmod kernel.
I'm on sppedmod kernel and sometimes will not go into deep sleep...phone will get very hot in my pdocket which to me is a sign that its not going into deep sleep. ill then do a reboot and monitor thru cpuspy. reboot works but I've not found a permanent solution as yet.

Thanks for your replies, but unfortunately, rebooting hasn't worked for me.
What else can I do? Please do not suggest formatting or wiping anything, as it would be too much of a pain to do with my current configuration.
Perhaps you can try to - flash abyss 3.9 for GB - run that jbroid kernel cleaning - reflash your kernel.

I'm on latest stock ICS and rooted (not that that should make any difference.)
Rebooting phone after charging works every time for me, and had become my staple routine.
mine too?
hi, i had a similar problem...here i uploaded my battery graph, does it show that my phone never really sleep too?

Have you tried going to Airplane mode only? If you haven't done that, then try to see if you can turn your phone mode off and observe if your still getting the high battery drainer issue.
One of the big drainers in the battery are your high percentage screen output. If you got a high screen % output that means you got wakelocks and it's being triggered by an app/s on your phone.
See if you can disable one by one those apps you mentioned above, charge up your phone to say 10 to 15 mins, take out the charger, set screen timeout (on settings to 15 secs) and turn off the screen and set your phone to airplane mode off. Observe for an hour without using it.
Note the percentage on your Screen from the time you took out the charger to the time you check back (after an hour) to see if it had gone down already.
Cheers/
Hi,
ICS has this 200 MHz problem and, for the moment, there doesn't seem to be a lot to do about it. I reboot every morning after charging and I'm fine for the day.
Without getting paranoiac about your battery (you have your phone because you use/need it, not for becoming a world champion in Deep Sleep ), mind what you install.
I usually "lose" between 1~2% capacity/hour and manage to run it a whole day with ~60% of the battery (WiFi, BT and GPS active). Yesterday I installed some Security thing and jumped to 4~5% immediately. It also caused constant 200 MHz mode and reboot didn't change a thing.
I dumped it this morning and am fine again. Here's my situation after 3h48m of activity today, I have 88% left
(Sorry for the big picture but I don't manage otherwise )
I keep my GNote as standard as I can and just verify briefly, with CPU Spy if everything is fine after installation of a new App. If it's no good I delete it and that's it.
Thanks everyone for the replies. Without quoting everyone, let me say I have tried all the tests you guys suggested. I have tried the airplane method, rebooting, monitoeing for apps, etc. I dont have latitude so didn't try that method. I also reinstalled speedmod k3-3 kernel last night.
I upload there images: system battery info., cpuspy and betterbaterystats. It seems, for now, my phone IS doing a little better with going into deep sleep. Unfortunately, I don't know which method worked, so I don't have a definite solution for anyone suffering from the same issue. As an observation, my phone used to go into deep sleep mode much more than it does now.
Edit: I have attached the following five screenshots to be analyzed. It seems the issue is not solved yet, and the phone still doesn't go into deep sleep the way it should. Could someone help point out from the screenshots what's going on? Thanks.

In your screenshots you have WiFi running for a lengthy period.
WiFi is notorious for eating the Battery.
Only use it when you actually need it.
The only contradiction to this is when you are actually using WiFi for an extensive period (do not include turning off the screen and leaving WiFi running in this description) it is kinder on the Battery than a Data Plan.
Also, as jpmiv mentions.... don't just remove the Battery (which I note you have already tried this method) but again as jpmiv mentions leave the Battery out of your Note for a short while before reinserting. It will clear away any residual memory on the Note.

I put the phone last night into airplane mode, turned it off and charged it for several hours.I'll test how it works today and post the results. If it doesn't show any signs of improvement, I will try your recommended method.
For historical information, I did try removing the battery for more than 10 mins, but did not charge it while it was turned off after inserting the battery. As I said, I will try your method after some testing today.

It's definitely your WiFi which is the main culprit.
Look at the WiFi Running and wlan_rx_wake
Have you turn off your WIFI dude?
Judging on the screenshots you made... your WIFI has been ON for a lengthy of time and anyone knows that if you enable your WIFI, it's surely going to eat most of your battery.
Try to see if you turn it off, and see if there's a considerable on your phone's battery after.

Yes, wifi is on, but what I should have mentioned is that I used to have a much better deep sleep time even with wifi on before last Friday when the issue began showing up. Also note that the wifi was on only because I was home - when I am at work, I am on data connection.
Is there anything else in terms of apps that you find unusual or the cause of the issue? Something is waking up my Note more often than it used to.

CASE CLOSED!!! Please read bottom part or flash stock GB 2.3.4!
I have posted this already on another thread (almost word for word) but I just really want you guys know and not panic about this problem and avoid going through difficult fixes like deleting system apps, recalibrating battery or even resetting your phone.
Since JVK was released, many observed that Android OS sometimes get hungry and devours battery. For some reason it is triggered to go berserk. Others say that the main culprit is the Auto update app. But other apps like Google Maps, Latitude and even just in a place where there is very low network signal or Wifi reception could also trigger this problem.
Now, I have a very simple solution: Turn off device, remove battery for a minute, put it back then turn it ON. Yes it is just that simple, REBOOT YOUR DEVICE.
Yeah after you turn on your device Android OS is still on the top of the list with high percentage but I believe it is just as it is because it previously consumed a lot of battery. All you have to do is observe again for an hour if your battery is dropping again, look into the graph and see if it is still steeping to the bottom. If it is dropping like Mt Everest, do the procedure above again.
If not, you will observe that after a couple of hours Android OS's percentage is getting low. Problem is fixed, (temporarily though).
Why go through deleting apps, recalibrate battery etc when you could just turn off your device for a minute?
I have experienced it a lot of times already (one of the first users who upgraded to JVK) but it doesn't bother me anymore. Turning off then on your device is very simple ain't it?
I highly advise that you do not touch anything on the sensitive part of your phone as there is no known single root of this problem. Just like I told you, many situations or apps could trigger Android OS to go berserk. Until there is no definite solution to this problem, I suggest you do the above procedure and save yourself from going through the pain of removing system apps, battery calibration or even hard reset.
By the way my battery usually lasts 3-4 days unless I made Android OS angry again.
INVESTIGATION
INVESTIGATION CLOSED!!! The culprit is caught. But the fix is not so simple. Only Samsung and genius devs (apparently the fix requires closed source modification) could fix this. If the problem occurs on your device, just do the temporary fix above. Please do not try to mess with your device for now.It is now fixed in XXJVP 2.3.4!

Guys if you want to help out please please please dial this *#*#4636#*#* and check "Usage Statistics" and let us know the top 3 items on the list! (highly suggested by {Angel}).
Below are some of the possible culprits currently pointed out by some users (I will update the list based from your feedback):
1. Software Update service
2. Google Maps
3. Latitude
4. Low network signal
5. Very low WIFI reception
6. Auto updates in Market
If this helps, a simple thanks is enough

That is why I suggested that they report what could be the possible triggers, like apps or situations, that make Android OS to awake and gobble up the battery. If we could just pinpoint those triggers maybe we can now figure out the root of the problem. Your fix of removing a system app, the auto update app, is not even the single source of the problem. We just do not know if that app is an essential app or not. Sooner or later you will have that problem again.
I am not saying we should just sit and wait. All I am saying is if you are a plain user and you do not know the exact root of the problem, then just do what I suggested.

Did what you suggested and pulled the battery at 30% waited 5 minutes and put it back in.... 1hr later it was at 35% (WTF!) and 30min later it was at 38% (WTF!)
im assuming its recalibrating?
Not necessarily. Maybe the battery meter is anticipating the fast consumption rate of Android OS that is why when it got fixed, the meter is able to readjust the readings based from the current consumption rate of your phone. Good to know it helped
Maybe use the 'forbidden' task killer? Works for me... Maybe im imagening it but works.
Btw my battery goes quickly down after getting below 25%. My battery not calibrated? Should i.calibrate it? I have this program to do it but am afraid that calibration goes wrong. (example what if my battery is 95% and will calibrate to 100. What if.i charge my battery higher than this.. Will it show 104%? Or will android stop working for it cannot be displayed in the notificationbar.
Using cm7.
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA App
You do not have to recalibrate. Cm7 has a known issue about battery. I think you cannot charge past 94 or 95 percent and battery usage is a bit terrible. Please refer to cm7 thread for possible fixes, (the last time I checked their thread, they say it is probably kernel related).
Just turning off, pulling the battery and turning on does do a lot for me! i went from 10% per hour to only 1%! great thnx!
Hi,
About battery drain in gb, once fixed the wifi sleep policy issue ( by setting it to "never") u shouldn't have batt drain, but i've installed green power ( juice defender do the work too i think) to get some wifi management possibility back and it improuved my batt life.

Guys, on Gingerbread I've had battery drain two times:
1. Had about 14% drain in 3 hours all of a sudden, without doing anything at all. Just started going down for some reason.
2. This morning, saw about 40% drain in 7 hours..
And, both time I solved it by Clearing Memory from the Task Manager.. Went back to normal 2-3% drain per 6-7 hours after that..
So this might also be a solution. Go to Task Manager, RAM tab, and Clear Memory..
i'm on ginger also and my battery acts weird. 2 days ago i charged my phone over night while it was closed. the battery holds for 15 hours with massive use.
last night i did it again, but today it went from 98% to 80% in about an hour !
this is really weird.

Did you manage to check first what is running on your device by looking into Battery Usage settings? I think you have a case of rogue application running in the background.
If you have not rebooted yet could you please attach a screenshot of the battery usage list and graph? In that way we might possibly identify the app running prior to the clearing of memory. Thanks!

I'm assuming you mean the Cell Standby? I'd love to know as well. In fact I think I'm going to ask some Asus people if they're seeing it in their Honeycomb version. Seems like a big thing to overlook by Acer if Asus doensn't have it.
I get great battery mileage as well.
Cell Standy seems to show up along with Tablet Idle (which makes sense) when going into standby or sleep. According to the stats it was taking a huge portion of my battery.
I was only able to get 5-6 hours out of mine, so took it back.
I mentioned this in another thread, but you can disable the cell by enabling airplane mode. When you check it, Wifi will shut down also. But you can re-check wifi and airplane mode will still be on to keep cell from working and draining your battery.
Also, the little airplane mode icon by the status bar goes away after about thirty seconds, if extra icons down there is the type of thing that bothers you.
This will save about 22% of the normal battery life used over 8 hours.
Makes no difference, Cell Standy will still show up and take battery.
I have verified there is no SIM card reader present in case anyone was wondering. Don't attempt to put one in it.

By removing the phone.apk and telephony no more cell standby now. Thanks.
I had cell standby using 30% of my battery at first and then I turned on airplane mode and re-enabled wifi. Since then it is a noticeable improvement. Also, there is a slot next to the sim card for the future LTE feature that has a grey sticker over it.

I tried using Astro to rename the apks, but getting a permissions error. Is there a free option for doing this?
UPDATED: I also tried Ghost Command and Android Mate...still getting permission errors. I even tried going and renaming the files via terminal. What I'm I doing wrong???
Just as as FYI, I'm trying to rename the files by just putting ".old" at the end of them.
Thanks!
Went ahead and got Root Explorer. That did the trick! Now I'll keep an eye on the battery usage and see what happens.
Are these the ones in /system/app? If not, where are they located?

On Friday 1 June 2012, which is Friday last week at the time of writing, I gladly updated my phone through Kies after receiving word of the UK update being available from these very forums. Over the past week, I have noticed that my battery life is considerably worse since my upgrade to the new Android version and, when hearing of people hear who manage up to 36 hours of battery life through this phone, I really want to find out what they are doing exactly. At present, I have set the brightness at 1% (the minimum) and only up it to 40% when out in bright light conditions. At home, I also use the Screen Filter app which dims the screen further (I have this set to 50% of my already 1% brightness setting) and claims to improve battery on AMOLED devices. I also have Juice Defend Ultimate running on "Aggressive" mode along with the built-in power saving mode running as well. Yet, looking on CPU Spy, my phone still does not enter deep sleep which is needed to see a real improvement in battery life as far as I am aware. I have tried restarting the phone and also plugging it back into charge before unplugging it with the screen turned on as many have recommended. Any ideas what else I can do?
Uninstall juicedefender. Its not uncommon that it drains a lot more juice than it saves.
There is must be any Application that is hogging your battery.
Install better battery state... Find that application and uninstall that.
I am getting better battery life in ICS as compared to GB...

I have that app installed, but frankly have no idea how to use it very well. From what I can tell, it is Kik Messenger which is creating a partial wake lock (but I need that to send pictures to my friends), Juice Defender which is supposedly saving battery life and biggest partial wake lock is RILJ or something. But, that is caused from a weak signal and I get that regardless of network at my house. Besides moving, I cannot alter that. As for Juice Defender, I've heard nothing but positive reviews from it. My main aim is to get deep sleep working, but how?

At home, I also use the Screen Filter app which dims the screen further (I have this set to 50% of my already 1% brightness setting) and claims to improve battery on AMOLED devices. I also have Juice Defend Ultimate running on "Aggressive" mode along with the built-in power saving mode running as well. Yet, looking on CPU Spy, my phone still does not enter deep sleep which is needed to see a real improvement in battery life as far as I am aware. I have tried restarting the phone and also plugging it back into charge before unplugging it with the screen turned on as many have recommended. Any ideas what else I can do?

first ,samsung ICS is poorly made ,second you have a high chance of bricking if you wipe your phone with their official kernels so don't do it.
third ,like others said ,juice defender (and any app of this sort) doesn't work anymore (android 2.2 and up) so just uninstall it.
fourth ,not entering deep sleep is mostly due to a rouge app ,and since wiping is not an option for you you need to hunt it down manually ,use better battery status (learn how to use it!!!) and uninstall any apps you don't need.
fifth ,get some knowledge then get rid of crappy touchwiz ROM and install CM9 ,you'll see a huge improvement in terms of performance and battery life.

Okay, well this is my first proper Android device (minus an old second-hand HTC Desire which had awful storage and I used for around one month). Secondly, I do know that other ROMs offer better performance and battery life but flashing them onto my phone is something I'm not very comfortable with and surely it would also void my warranty. I've only had the phone for four weeks and don't want it wrecked already.

I'm fairly new to android as well ,had an S2 (which was so good that I only rooted it ,no custom ROMs) for 5 months before the note and that's it.
but I rooted my note the first day I got it ,and installed a custom ROM less than a week later (was a total noob at the time but I read and learnt quickly) .
then CM9 arrived and I flashed that immediately and haven't regretted it so far.
but I had no warranty to begin with so.....
note that if there is something that can wreck your shinny new note ,then it's amsung official ICS update (read the announcement sticky on ICS and bricking) .
but how experts can explain the fact i face:
With every official and custom ROM i install, even CM9, my note keeps eating battery when in use plugged to the charger... it's unbelievable... I can't understand how it happens.
by the way: i always full wipe before installing any custom/official rom.

Well, is there nothing that I can do to trigger deep sleep or improve battery life on the stock ROM first of all? Secondly, how difficult is rooting and would that void any warranty?

it can't happen ,I'd say you either have a faulty battery\charger or there is someting wrong with the phone itself
the note charges while in use and connected to a charger.

yes you can ,uninstall the violating apps ,learn to use better battery status ,you'll find that there is an app or two responsible for the wake locks ,thus preventing the phone from entering deep sleep.
or simply install every app and game that seems suspisious or poorly made ,and just keep the essential ones.
as for rooting ,it couldn't be simpler if done carefully and to the letter :
1.flash back to GB using PC ODIN
2.root it
3.backup your EFS folder (important , very important) search for it on the forums.
4. install custom ROMs (stay away from unsafe kernels please ,read the sticky thread about ICS kernels)
3. enjoy
use this guide
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1329360
yes there is an easy way to root while on stock ICS as per to this guide ,but I prefer you stay away from official ICS for the sole reason that it's dangerous.
remeber the key is to read and read and read ,in a month you could become a pro
on the other hand if you go the lazy way ,you could just end up with a bricked phone
also once you root ,your warranty is void ,though if you're careful you can return it to stock condition and they won't tell the difference
be careful

That's just wrong. CM9 battery drain with screen on is far, far worse than Stock ROM.

no my friend ,I'm afraid you're wrong ,with the 4\6 nightly my phone was running with low usage for 48+ hrs .

@Brad387
I have had mine for about 2 weeks. When I turned it on and did the initial setup it had a new software update which was ICS. Since then I have been having issues with deep sleep as well. I turned stuff on and off and it has been totally random what was preventing it from going to deep sleep.
I have done this trick that has been on this forum.
Put you phone to airplane mode.
Power it off completely
Remove battery for 20 seconds or more
put battery back in and power this thing back on
then turn off airplane mode.
This seems to have helped me get into deep sleep. BUT there have been instances of rogue crap going on. Like I was using Google maps with GPS on. When I got home and was done with my traffic mapping I turned off the GPS switch and turned off my phone. I checked an hour later and the battery had died 10% since I got home which was more than when I was driving. I checked Better Battery Stats and it showed that GPS was running that whole time. So I turned on GPS again in the toggle waited a couple seconds then turned it off again and bang it went into deep sleep. It sucks that I have to check crap on it all the time and have become a bit paranoid because the GPS glitch had my phone running pretty hot. Since then everything has been running well and deep sleeping.
There are other things I did do too and the below stuff is up to you if you wish to proceed. I rooted my phone which was very easy...at least for me. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20963730&postcount=3 this is what I used with no problem.
From there you can freeze a bunch of stuff you may not use like Social Hub, Accuweather etc etc.You will need Titanium for that though and root access.
I logged out of Latitude too which was on by default for some reason.
If I remember anything else I did I will hit you back here.
Bottom line was finally yesterday I was able to get thru the entire day without needing to plug in so there is light at the end of the tunnel...I hope.
Not sure if this has been mentioned but CPU Spy lets you see if you are getting into deep sleep mode and how much time you are in it along with the other CPU mhz that its running.
Hopefully this can help out a bit because I have been in the same boat and it has been driving me mad. Sorry for all the random thoughts too...I just typed them as I remembered things.

My phone does not seem to enter Deep Sleep, but runs constantly at 200 MHz instead. At present, after turning on the built-in power saving mode (not noticing any performance differs so can't even tell what it does), running Juice Defender Ultimate on aggressive and screen filter I burn around 2% per hour if I just leave my phone locked. Is that healthy?

Actually, there is something you can do about that!
Both Vodafone and Three can supply you with a Femtocell which can greatly improved your signal at home, and uses your home broadband as backhaul.
I know, because I have them!

Battery life of my Note was horrible after upgrade to ICS, and actually already quite bad the last month on GB2.3.6 (all unrooted).
It could get quite warm and often when opening my case the screen was already on.
So I did wipe my phone, reinstalled all apps and battery life has improved immensely.
I see several warnings here about chance to brick your phone when wiping on stock ROM, but not solving the battery drain is of course no option and we don't have a guarantee from Samsung for nothing...

your phone should not be running at 200MHz when you hit the sleep/power button. So if its in your pocket and the screen is off then 200MHz is not healthy. Something is running in the background. Have you tried the airplane mode battery trick yet? What I did when that was happening to me was...turn on the airplane mode, power off the phone, pull out batt for 20 secs, put batt in and power on phone, turn off airplane mode, then go to CPU Stats and clear it, then put phone back to sleep and let it sit for a half hour or less if you cant handle that wait like I couldnt. Go back to CPU Stats and and click refresh and see if it helped and if your phone went into deep sleep.
I installed on my oppo 5 pure AOSP, which i didn't like so I have decided to move to MIUI.
after moving to MIUI my phone started turning off by itself (screen goes black) and the only way to turn it back on is to connect it to a charger.
So i moved back to stable stock rom and still, moved to stock beta phone crashes.
thank I noticed that the crashes happens whenever the phone is connected to the WIFI or the mobile network data.
if both are off the phone is working steady, but the moment i put any of them on the phone crashes.
BTW it is only mobile network data, phone calls are still working without crashing the phone.
I need help!!!
edit #1: i installed cm10.1 and it doesn't crash when connected to WIFI, but mobile network doesn't work at all (no signal)
edit #2: even when i am doing a proper shutdown to the phone, i cannot power it on unless i connect it to the charger, battery is show more than %50
thanks,

I have a similar problem. I suggest you full wipe and install latest beta.
If you have a second phone like me, try to use airplane mode then WiFi. If it still occurs then it is probably hardware.

last night i installed the latest stable, than full wipe, than again flashed the latest stable and left the phone charging for the night.
this morning, it seems like it is working fine, but the battery is draining in a rate of %10 per hour!!! even without doing anything on it
Does it overheat?Can you install battery log and start logging?I want to see the first graph with the Battery + Celsius reading.Mine does something similar, but CM based roms can't even work.

OK, Cool.I need a full discharge log and a charge log (till battery hits 100% again).
Is this with airplane mode on?
the phone battery was draining quicker than before and after 11 hours of low usage, but the upside is that it was behaving fine during these hours. at the 11th hour the phone suddenly died while it was at %21.
now I am charging the phone while it is off until it will reach %100 and i will power it on and upload the logs.
I did not had a secondary phone at the time so i was still using it (well, I was visiting my family so I was eager to show off my new phone )

low use, not on airplane mode.
keep in mind that the strangest thing was that the phone died at %21
here is another log and screenshot.
the phone was on all thru the night starting from around 11pm until this morning around 7am the battery was around %64.
since than again a low usage until now 12pm the battery is at %19.
edit #1: not too long after sending this message my phone died at %7....
why it is off before getting to %0???
Wow mate.Just like mine. It is either hardware or software. Started one day. I will post my logs when I get home. OPPO does not even respond.

+1 Probably they are trying to fix it with a software update...
no signal and saviour
the no signal problem is a issue that appears on Cm10 and some other roms based on Cm you gotta reboot your device some times until the radio wakes up. the other problem , try to install Aospa ( paranoid android ) and wipe everything wipe factory and system also wipe dalvik cache and cache. install zip and Gapps ( or do the same method but install STOCK , u can find stock firmwareon the oppoforums )
So I have my phone like 4 days now and the first day I immediately noticed that when I turn off the screen it drains battery like hell (60+% in one night). It's like the cpu doesn't go to sleep at all.. Sometimes it works fine and looses like 5% at night that's fine for me but then the next day it will loose 10+ % in one hour by doing nothing...
The phone is pure stock, I changed nothing, no root or anything...
This is really annoying have no idea what it could be that drains so much battery.. Already looked if an app was draining but no...
Someone has the same problem? Or maybe knows how to fix this?
Clear the cache.
In case you don't know.
Turn phone off
Hold Home + Power + Volume Up till you see the Samsung logo, then let go of all buttons.
A menu should load - Navigate using vol keys and select using power button.
I had a similar issue and this fixed it for me.

There is an excellent thread on battery life for note5 which you can use to get tips for edge plus too.Here is the link :
http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-note-5/567125-note-5-battery-life-thread.html
Samsung has provided lot of inbuilt apps like Smart Manager which is like Clean Master you get in Play store.
Open Smart Manager ---> Click on Storage --> click on Detail ---> click on Cache data --> click delete to clean cache.
Lot of people downloaded Greeify, shutupp,wave lock detector and doze which actually use battery. After I uninstalled them battery life increased by 45 minutes.

I agree. Most of the apps that promise to increase battery life degrade it further. In fact, this Paranoia of ours with battery life (keep checking every 10 minutes for battery drop) affects it further.
So, I would suggest uninstall all 3rd party apps. And do not track battery life every instant. And still if you think your battery isn't lasting long enough (check On Screen Time/ Active Time at end of day), contact Samsung.
Hello there!
I had the same problem initially. I wasn't sure which app was causing. So i did a factory reset and reconfigured everything. Now all well. So i guess the best thing would be to backup everything do a factory reset. Then carefully monitor the other app you are installing. There are few that draws lot of power for location services. Then disable that S voice wake up command thingy I am guessing it runs all the time which is not so great. Don't go for Greefiy or any apps like that. Those don't do great job unless you have a Xposed running
So I tried clearing the cache but did noting. I had GPS always on I thought maybe if I turn it off but the same changed nothing.. I don't have any "battery Monitoring" or greenify like app.. Sometimes it works fine but othertimes it drains like crazy doing nothing.. I will try factory reset, hope that will fix this..

Hello mate. I faced the same battery drain problem. It wasn't going to deep sleep when screen was off. Last night 6-7 hours screen was off but the device wasted my %19 battery so result was missing the alarm and got late to work etc. Then I rooted and flashing the Arter97 kernel solved this(Now draining about %3). The device is now sleeping deeply like a deeply sleeping baby when screen is off lol.

It's weird. Did u check the arter kernel flashed properly, cpu governor switched to interactive and 'Deep sleep' isn't in 'Unused Cpu States' ? I ask that because my device doesn't waste much battery when the device is in deep sleep(already said). Dunno man I couldn't help any more. Good luck.

I'm running custom rom arter kernel tried everything but nothing really fixes completely my problem.. Start to think I have a faulty phone..
