go into the main phone settings, wifi, wifi menu(three dots), advanced, then uncheck scanning always available. this will take care of your battery stats as showing wifi always on, and will help a little on battery.

WiFi/GPS always on in battery diagram

Welcome guys I've problem with my note 3 the battery is good but when I check for the battery consumption diagram I see something wired and I don't know if it's bug in the system or in the diagram
The WiFi always on whatever I enable it or disable it (this issue since a bought the device)
Recently, the GPS started acting like WiFi and it's almost the whole time and I really enabled it today for just 5 mins
I have attached a screenshot to let you see it
Please tell me the issue source and any fix available

Might not be related, but do you have location logging in certain apps (facebook etc) enabled? And is Location settings set to WiFi and GPS? Because it sounds to me like something keeps using WiFi and GPS for something.
Go to settings>wifi, hit menu button on the bottom left and select advanced. Untick scanning always available... You can also change "wifi always on" too but I tend to leave it on....
Thnx all wifi is fixed but gps not

Radio shows as off+battery frain

So I have been having battery issues on my Note 3 for a while now. Android system has been a large offender of using my battery, but I've also noticed that there are gaps in my mobile network signal. From this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26891039&postcount=14 I'm gathering that my radio is off? This happens when screen is on, but mostly when it's off. During these times I can get texts, and everything works fine. Just my battery starts to drain faster. The area under my camera also gets rather hot. This is my 2nd Note 3 with this issue, the first one was RMAed because it would not get messages on time.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
Running Jasmine ROM 2.4.1.

I believe with your radio off you should drain less battery. Mine does it too, and I have awesome battery life without being rooted. Usually well over 24 hours with heavy use, and 6 hours or more on screen time. I recently did a factory reset so maybe that's what you need for better life?

What drains the battery (phone is not in deep sleep)

Something uses the cpu at 400MHz so many hours.
How do I know what exactly.
I noticed that every phone discussion has a topic about battery saving tips.
Is there a thread with Note 4 tips?
Thanks!!!

I've noticed that the 'indexing service' is the culprit for battery drain on my Note 4. Just got it a few days ago. Any advice how to stop this without having to root?

it would help if you also post android os battery screen.
Anyway try this.. set mobile data to GSM (2G) and reboot phone. It doesn't matter if you use wifi or mobile data, but let me know if setting mobile data to GSM helps with battery drain.

I'm on Verizon so I don't have an option to set to just GSM. (That I have found.)
Also I'm pretty sure that won't help because I seem to have similar battery drain when in Airplane mode. I never did check with WLD when in airplane mode but the drain was still excessive.
Here is a shot of the Android battery stats:

This is always my secret to extra long battery life. Purchase it from the Play Store
Android (5.1.1) doesn't need loads and loads of CPU power to function buttery smooth.
Lower the CPU clock speed, that way you'll be using less CPU power which will in turn save you battery life.
