I use Franco Kernel for a month now and battery last to the end of the day with not too much use
I see your using GO Launcher.
I've had my note a little over a week, when I first got it I went a bit nuts and grabbed every app left right and centre. Including GO Launcher, I ended up in a similar position as you though - my battery would drain completely in around 6-8hours (of heavy usage mind you).
Last night I uninstalled all the GO features and I'm now back on the stock TWLauncher, after nearly 12hours, I still have around 60% battery with similar usage.
Many things affect how quickly the battery drains - most notably, how much you use it. But also if your in an area with weak/no signal it can potentially drain your battery as the phone constantly seeks a signal. (Had this issue with the Galaxy Ace).
Get rid of go launcher and the animated wallpaper

Try all the different kernels , they can make a huge difference and each phone is different
From the big ole Note
something strange happens today. and it has been almost a half day since i've flashed franco kernel .
and the temp went up to 102? is that normal i felt the heat up to my ear while i were on a call, it didnt happen b4. i used the WiFi for like 10 min?
. hope someone tells me whats wrong
You should'nt have to flash kernels and whatnot, my note performs best when left stock...Just be carfull.with some badly programmed apps.

There are two things I found that helped temperature...
1) Turn off the Note and charge it for an hour or so to get to full charge
Use it for a while and if it is still hot....
2) Reboot into Recovery mode (I use CWM) and then clear the Davlik cache
I did have temp problems and screen sleeps with Franco 10, so have gone back to Franco 6 - it was very good on my phone. As you will read, every phone seems to be unique - some kernels are great on one phone and not so good on others.... Just make sure to take a good backup and test it before trying anything new.
Another tip for improved performance...
Disable wi-fi when you don't need it and wi-fi sharing (I use Titanium Backup but there are others out there) - I found this made a big difference - maybe 5-10%.
Good luck.

There are a number of ways of doing it... personally i use two...
1) ClockWorkMod backup
2) Titanium backup
The first one is a great way to get a total backup of everything if you need to get back to previous setup, the second is the same but also great for backing up individual apps and better... freeezing them so they dont run!
try using the kernel abyssnote 4.2, I was using the Franco thought it was going like the battery in stock, with an abyss felt great savings

hi,(i tried PM reply 2 u,but not sure its goin.so this post)
i saw ur screenshots.
as u r on a custom rom,i cant compare my Note 2 urs.
I am on foll stock rom (screenshot attached)
u can try going back to stock rom(download from dr ketans thread)
run the note as stock for 48 hrs n see how battery lasts.
if there is huge battery drain then also,show it to samsung.
if not,install apps one by one,keeping few hours in between.u can easily detect battery drain of some app like that.
personally i use go-launcher n find it to be very less battery consuming.
yesterday i've installed an antivirus and is watching out for battery drain now.
hope this helps...

That sounds very odd. Is the phone actually dying that quickly, or is it reporting your charge incorrectly?
Either way, to help us figure out what is going on...
What Rom are you on exactly?
What kernel?
OC?
UV?
Governor?
High and low frequencies?
My immediate thoughts however are that your battery may have gone bad though.
I have ics passion 4.0.3. My phone draink the charge very kuicly. Il think the battery is dead

I agree with the statement about your battery being dead, (Maybe) but you should try a different ROM as well, especially since I recall having battery drain issues as well with ICS Passion. Not to mention that its outdated and ICS still has the EU bug which no one knows how to fix 100%. (EU bug is dangerous, just search it up.) GPS also doesn't function that well. If I were you, I would try one of the CM10 ROMS for now or any of the JB ROMS, at least until Android 4.2 is officially released by CM. I am on CM10.1 Hellybean by Derteufel; amazing work as usual and GPS locks in under 10 secs. Battery life is really good too. This is the first time my GPS on this phone worked without applying any fixes. (Well, actually, all CM10.1 ROMs that I've tried have a fully working GPS) Really, I think you should try these new ROMS. They are really nice. Sorry, I got a bit off topic and started rambling, but yeah, try one of these ROMs. If you still have major drain issues, then its time to change your battery. I'm already guessing its a battery problem though.
EDIT: OOPS MY BAD. I didnt read everything completely. Yeah, its most likely either a bad battery or its reporting the stats wrong.
Yeah sammo, its time to change ROMs. My recommendation is ParanoidAndroid 2.54-360, with the latest semaphore kernel. Check these battery stats
what ROM U think i should have in my t959 . i dont need gps i just want the battery go longer . and please if U don t mind . put the link of a thread of the rom .THANK U guys u re awsome .
The screenshot is on the better side but 18hrs is about average for me.
PA thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=32013558
Use the 360 version.
I am Jack's smirking revenge.
agreed, some Roms run differently on different phones, gunny be careful with those scream, I mean screenshots..
Maybe your battery is close to the end of it's life cycle.
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Don't guess, just flash another ROM and you'll be sure.
Try out Kingsoft's Miui with Semaphore 2.50, a beautiful experience (use the tricks in the thread for best results).
Thank u guys. Il really helped me. im gonna try the 4.1.2 parandroid
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Personally, I get better battery on slim bean than on paranoid android or MIUI. Combined with the semaphore kernel, I get 20 hours usually.
If it's a battery issue, I'd still get a replacement, the ROM/kernel you use only affects battery life marginally.
I'd switch to one of the recommended roms and download the battery calibration app from the Play Store..
If its a battery on the fritz then it'll still need to be replaced. It may help with incorrect stats reporting though. Good luck!
So I have had my Nexus 4 for 7 exact days, was suffering from a terrible battery life of 1:30 hrs MAX screen-on. Until I flashed CM10.1+Franco's latest kernel and my phone has a 3:30 hrs of screen time on ! - I tried AOKP with Faux and some other rom combinations...Any one can explain why?
And clearly the battery life on WIFI surpasses the one on 3g.
It probably has a lot to do with the "msm_hsic_host" kernel wakelock that is present on the stock kernel. Flashing to either franco or faux kernel is supposed to be a great way to fix it and increase battery life
Because Franco Kernel is like magic?
Edit: oh hey! you're the same guy from yesterday I suggested Franco Kernel to and pm'd me for additional tips

1:30 screen time Max? Damn.... Do you use your phone as a satellite? And WiFi IS ALWAYS better on the battery than 3g, that goes for any phones.

I suggest using https://play.google.com/store/apps/...yLDEsImNvbS5iaWdleWVzMHgwLnRyaWNrc3Rlcm1vZCJd with those kernels. I use Franco's paid app but Trickster is a good free alternative!

Thanks for the suggestion. Tinkering with phone settings is not in my priority list, but knowing what the kernel is doing with my phone is definitely useful if I decide to tinker later.
And free phone state knowledge is priceless (as in it has no list price :cyclops

Not sure if it has the ability to disable logging and events (i think it does). You can disable those two features for better battery life (very insignificant but every bit helps, right?) and you can disable fsync if you choose to (more IO speed, less stability mainly if your phone was to randomly reboot).
Plus the free color changing is always nice to have.
3 to 4 hours with screen on is normal battery life for a stock Nexus 4.
It sounds like you were running something that was draining the battery.
When you updated the phone, the new ROM turned off the culprit.
The battery drain is not necessarily caused by an app, it could be one
of the Google services or bad reception. Even changing the phone's default
settings can result in much better battery life.
This might be a stupid question, but could switching from stock kernel/ROM fix my antenna radio reception bull**** issues?

Hi.
I'm looking for the best kernel for Nexus4 stock ROM 4.4.2.
I tested meny kernels and everyone have some problems.
One is freezing display, ather is draining battery or restart nexus.
I have no idea which one is the best form me.
I don't play games.
Usually I'm using Nexus to talk, WiFi, navigate and call by SIP client.
Stability and saving battery is very importent for me.
Temporary I returned to Franco Kernel r199.
It's work good but not the best.
Which one of all kernels do you suggest?
Try matrix. I am using that for a long time

Hellscore and HellsDoctors were OK but now battery is down after 6-7 hours.
I don't know why.
On Franco kernel r199 I can use My nexus even to 20h.
Today I was upgraded My navigate app (1,8GB) by WiFi and now I have 60% battery and 11h using Nexus.
WiFi and 3G is always ON.
GPS is On when necessary.
I'll try matrix and moob.
Best kernel threads are not allowed. As you can see, you have several posts with as many different answers, leaving you with the exact option had you not even created this thread: go read the kernel threads and search and try them for yourself.
