Major battery drain on 4.3? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So since flashing to 4.3 stocked odexed rooted that's it, I've had bad battery drain. As you can see it just drops. I'm coming from slim ROM which gave godly battery life but this is bad. Am I missing something? Can I flash 4.2.2 kernel to help with this? Or not compatible. I want to stay on 4.3 but this is ridiculous.

Perhaps there is a relation with my problem, have a look at it:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2378346

Just applied stock 4.3 and rooted and getting massive battery drain. There's an issue with the current root, chainfire hopefully will release an update. Though I don't know if the rooted apps themselves also require some update too.

Did updating SuperSU fix your battery issue?

Is their anyone here not gonna jump into 4.3 yet?

Judging from the board their really isnt much of a need to atleast not until the OTA update comes out or when custom roms and kernels come out for 4.3.. I mean battery life on 4.3 has been hit or miss, Rooting 4.3 is still buggy and may not work right?
I'll get it when my phones finally get the OTA I can wait to root if need be. Just as I can wait for custom roms and kernels too.

just flash the .33/.83 hybrid radio, download the network app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.mangelow.network), select lte/gsm (auto), change your apn from epc.tmobile.com to fast.t-mobile.com and enjoy.
I actually jumped on it right away, but evidently my favorite app (Podkicker Pro) needs tweeking to be compatible with it because it keeps crashing every time i open it. I went back to 4.2.2 for now but once Podkicker is updated, then I'll jump back onto 4.3. My only regret is that I'll miss the original gtalk app. So far, I am NOT a fan of Hangouts.
Chainfire's SU for the SGS4 works on our N4s. He posted it on his Google+ page. It is also referenced in the 4.3 OTA thread.

What do i do if i get this message in cmd? says that it is not recognized as a internal or external command, operable program or batch file
Im on windows 8
Yep, I'm going to wait. I put the factory image on my Nexus 7, but I'm going to wait for Cyanogenmod to release a 4.3 build for the Nexus 4.
Waiting for mbq's BBQ ROM so I'll be waiting for the betas.

Waiting for Halo + 4.3.
I'm not going to complain about it though in the thread because I want them to take there time and do it right.

I got the ota link from here and haven't looked back since. I didn't have 4g for all of 20 hours and now I am on some pure Aosp goodness from Jarjar124. No complaints from me even though I thought it would kill me to be on vanilla'sh ROMs.
Going to wait till the JellyBeer ROM updates
I jumped. I'll install PA4.3 when its dropped tho. But I really like 4.3 Improvement all around.
Waiting for PA...
Can't help with the fact that I have to sacrifice so many features from custom ROM and kernel for the "upgrade". The android version can wait.
nevermind I was gonna do it but my drivers are messed up or its windows 8 fault but cmd doesnt recognize my Nexus 4 so I'll just wait for the POT update. screw it
I am waiting for Paranoid Android to upgrade to 4.3

Nexus 4

Hello, I have the Nexus 4 I am running 4.2.2 and I'm rooted I was going to update the other day to 4.3 but it didn't work. Could this be due to a custom recovery? I am on stock android and i was unrooted at the time.
I was also wondering if there are any good root methods out there I have heard a lot of problems with rooting on 4.3?
Just would like some opinions?
Thanks guys

There's not really any problems just gotta make sure you're following instructions properly. All you need to do is obviously just unlock your device, then push recovery to it then flash root. Obviously the are more in the between steps.

4.3 was good enough for me really,but i can not help myself
stay on 4.3 untill you read more about kitkat

Thats why i actually updated to cm11. Which is still kitkat but also works on the old bootloader. Means you can always go back to stock 4.3. You will lose all available spen features tho and all Samsung stuff . If you're not scared of knoxing your device that is.

For me all works. For the S-View Cover if you got problems theres a XPOSED MODULE that fixes.
If you want to flash to kitkat flash to the latest one - https://mega.co.nz/#!9ExjAR5a!JlqiFGnMqN1iYQylM7-3bhvupKtkZ9fnLLwLwTC8rD0 (thanks @ValenteL )

Best is poland, from what I have read and some ppl said.
But I couldn't find latest poland nb4 as what most ppl said.
So I flashed the nb7 germany but it requires pit file to be flashed together.
Or perhaps u could try nb7 uk.
My sview cover is working just fine with nb7 germany. No issue. And fyi, I m not using any original scover ciz too ex for me.
Sd card problem I found so far only on dolphin apps, where by it detects as "external sd" only, instead of "storage/external sd". Therefore if u want to download something, it will still be only able to save to internal sd.
Btw, battery much more better than 4.3.
I m quite satisfy with it, based on my same usage.
And it really did stay very well in deep sleep.
I discharged, and nver use it for 4 hours, it dropped to 98% only. Something I never see before.
Sent from N9005 4.4.2 NB7 rooted device
NB7 Germany contains the fix for the 3rd party accessories. (It is the second 4.4.2 update for DBT).
Keep in mind that 4.3 has a very, very annoying issue with Android leeching battery. I never had issues before updating to 4.4.2. Factory reset helped a bit, but not much. Ever so often Media Server prevents deep sleep.
The SD Card doesn't have problems, the lazy app developers have a problem. Google updated security policies (remember how people are always whining about security? This is the result. Blame them.) and now the devs have to alter one tiny permission in their apps and it works. But a lot of them can't be bothered.
If you are happy on 4.3, don't update.
I think to stay on 4.3 and wait for another update
Mybe 4.4.3 ?

You either update to 4.4.2, or don't update.
4.4.3 would be too long away. Once Google releases 4.4.3, it would take months for Samsung to update, if they feel like it.
Really I'm worry If I update my phone to 4.4.2
Be sorrowful for leaving 4.3 ?
