Hi All,
I have been experiencing serious battery problems with my S4 since I have installed the 4.3 update. Normal battery drop while using the phone is as before but what is shocking is the drop in the battery percentage when it is idle, like 3-4% every half hour.
I don't keep Wi-Fi and 3G Data connection active all the time, only when needed.
I have attached the screenshot of my battery usage, where "Android OS" is always the battery hogger and the screen awake time has also increased.
I hope Samsung guys come up with a better update patch but till then any help to improve battery life would be appreciated.
PS: I don't want to do a complete factory reset.

Hi,
It is already unchecked and no the battery isn't bloated.
There was another option for Wi-Fi when under sleep .. what should that be set at ?

see in the 4th pic.
the applock app is doing 20000+ counts of alarms in 5mins plus.
u should consider removing that.
u can set yr wifi when sleep to 'always'.
Android OS is too high.
are u using any location based in google settings?
please recheck and turn it off for now and see if the problem subside in 4 hours time.
another thing to note that under settings/acessibility/notification reminder, make sure to set it to off.
Problem Solved.
Ya I removed that "App Lock" app and my battery is back to normal. Guess it isn't compatible with 4.3, was working fine earlier.
And i have disabled location settings for Google apps in Google Settings app.
Notification Reminder is also ticked to off.
Thanks a Ton.

Not sure what's the ideal setting.. so I left my at "Always"
Battery life lower on 4.3
I am having the same issue but I'm not sure why because I don't have any weird notification apps installed accept dynamic notification. After reading this I suspected it to be the culprit and uninstalled it to check.
My phone is exactly the same except for 4.3 update and with the same use as every other day I got 4-5 hours less battery life.

EntriesRefresh_wakelock is usually the wakelocks created by Google Now app.
It's running most of the time to keep u updated with the cards u have chose(stocks, weather, traffic, etc).
U can stop them in the Google Now settings to minimise the wakelocks.

Installed anything just before the drain problem?
Pretty much all the problems I've had with battery drain have been traced to an app misbehaving. The battery stats info can be a bit misleading too - so don't trust that the OS itself is draining the juice... Its more likely to be some service app that doesn't show up a itself on the stats.
I've found Widget Locker a painful battery hog, for example, but it never shows up in my battery stats. Instead the Android OS, or whatever last write to the system log (log cat) show up as using all the power. Uninstalling WL always fixes the problem so I know its that app causing the drain.
Also, is that shield in your notifications bar some sort of battery saver?
If so it may be the cause not the saviour! I've read that the latest free version of Green Power tries to connect to ad-servers constantly and drains the battery double-quick. Apparently the premium version doesn't have this issue but you have to pay for it, obviously!
the issue is undoubtedly running services..you probably added an app or three that is high maintenance.
shut down and restart your phone and then without starting or using any apps, leave it overnight to get a better benchmark for battery life.
If still low, look at the running services, you may be staggered to see what amount of crap is running in the background..

Mine hasn't had any new apps installed and normally loses about 7 percent overnight. The shield in the pic is lookout which I've always used without a problem.

some tips for better battery life.
I have tried to disable everything and even did a hard reset while disabling all unnecessary "functions" that samsung and google adds, but still when using the phone with screen on and just browsing reddit Android OS is above Screen and all other apps. While the phone is off it never hits deep sleep and is usually 90% awake.
I have disabled Samsung Push Service, but haven't seen any improvement. I have disabled Location Services and all the other stuff suggested in other threads with no luck.
I have attached AlarmManager.txt since that's what other people suggest, but I cannot understand how to properly read the file.
If anyone can help me fix this battery drain, it would help me a lot. Thanks.
Try wakelock detector to see which app/process is puling down the battery power.
My phone had the same problem last few days.
However i just format the internal storage & reflash os. I don't really care as i've backed up my apps using TB.
At least it solve mine.
What solved it for me was a complete wipe, flash back to stock then install recovery and custom rom. Not had any issues since. - think it's an anomaly within the OS.

Already did that in the first 30 minutes of googling. I don't want to root because I will lose my warranty. My colleague's Note 3 is a bit older on the same firmware, but has absolutely no battery drain. He's had his phone on for soon 2 days and it still had 30% of battery left. What could this mean? I have disabled everything he has and it still made no difference.
May be this will help.

I did the same. It worked for 45 minutes straight (80% deep sleep, 20% awake), then when I woke the phone up after those 45 minutes to check battery stats and turned the screen off manually again, it stopped deep sleeping right that moment.

Hi Muhammad, when I use WLD or Betterbattreystats I usually get nlpwakeclock collector or another wakeclock, it never specifies if a certain app is causing it to stay awake.

No solution. After 4 hours idle I only have 65% left and android OS is the biggest culprit above screen on. I'm thinking of trying the beta kitkat rom.
I solved my battery drain by disabling google location access - for some reason google services continued trying to access location and were keeping the device awake, an hour of idle leached away like 5% of battery, which is usually what I get drained in a day. I have still left "power efficient" location to Android - using only wifi, but have disabled location in the google specific settings, then reboot and voila.
Solved for my Note 3 N9005
I tried all the gimmicks on this thread and many else. Even turning everything off (and thus crippling the functionality of the phone) didn't help.
Then I tried a couple of battery saver apps and one of them seems to have done the trick.
Easy Battery Saver.
Now there's no 'keep awake' time in Battery -> Android OS. None.
Hope this helps!

Took me a while to figure it out but for me Sview case is causing big Android OS battery drain on 4.3. It keeps running a w1_bus_master1 process that tops cpu usage and is draining the battery. You can see it if you enable show cpu usage in developer options. I guess its used to detect opening and closing the case but its usage is insane. As soon as i take the case off the process is gone and Android OS stops eating the battery.

Battery life on this phone is amazing under use, but only average on standby, which is the only negative thing I could say about G2. I routinely lose 2%-3% battery over night, it was the same on JB and now on KK.
I've been checking the wake locks and it is our old friend Google Services and its NlpCollectorWakeLock that keeps the phone awake about 10 minutes a day, since Google likes checking our location 1000 times a day. Turning location off doesn't help at all.
What are your experiences and how have you been dealing with this on G2 specifically? Don't just say install Wakelock Terminator, if you used it also share your experiences with it. Does Greenifying make a difference and what did you hibernate? Did you have any issues afterwards with apps that use location?
And most importantly, did it have any effect on battery life in standby?
Can't remember whether Knock On/Off feature has anything to do with the NCWL but just disable it and see what happens.
Also, down 2-3% overnite seems normal to me.

Yeah, constantly running Location Services bugs me off too.
Maybe you could find solution in that http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/general/nlpwakelock-nlpcollectorwakelock-t2551846 topic, I didn't read it
Location services disable location reporting and history ... That helps decrease it (only do this if you don't use Google now location based features)... Also you can set location to device only if you want ... And greenify the Google maps app ...
... did you actually just complain about a 3% battery drain in 6-7 hours of idling or whatever you define 'night' as?...
Getting back to the topic, one of the bigger things you could do to reduce NlpCollectorWakeLock is disable Google Now. I personally don't find it very useful in my country so I never keep it on. Thus, I get that 3% battery drain overnight with WiFi on.

Even after the april update whatsapp is draining a lot of battery - other than that everything is fine. I'm getting a 8% drain after 1h and 50min of usage. I've seen other S10+, with Exynos, draining the same 8% but over a period of 5h of usage. Anybody else experiencing this issue? I've tried to put the app to sleep, tried to uncheck the "allow background data" option, cleared data and cache but with no luck.

Both, I think. It happens when I'm on wifi and when I'm out using 4G - but I honestly didn't do a wifi or LTE-only test, but will do it today.

I have the Exynos version and I never had draining problems with WhatsApp.
Ok, I did reset the app data and cache. I'll only use wifi this afternoon. Tonight I'll try LTE-only.
Cleared cache and data but nothing changed
can you install nice catch from good lock and monitor everything
Sent from my SM-G975F using Tapatalk
Yeah, will do it now. I'll be back soon.
Ok, so I've been using nice catch for over 2 hours and nothing strange showed up. Only toast and screen wakeup have recorded statistics - removing my charger and pressing button woke up my phone, and browsing/whatsapp added statistics to toast history - I've deleted a few messages, changed wallpaper on whatsapp and opened a few links in my browser.
Will update tomorrow but looks like there's nothing wrong here.
So, yes. My phone did not wake up - only when I pressed the turn on/off button to check the clock a few times throughout the night.

Last days of the battery usage. In 2 mins of using it or while screen is off is losing like 1-2 percent of ?. What can I do for it ?

Bad reception or low signal drains battery because the phone is actively looking for better signal or closer cell tower if you have 1 bar or 2 bars i would turn off data or switch to wifi if you're home. Another thing also another member above said Facebook and Facebook Messenger are FAMOUS like i mean Arnold Schwarznegger famous for draining the battery in the background because they are constantly doing shady stuff when you're not looking syncing messages or listening to push notifications, also that Instagram looks suspicious as hell, i don't have one but it looks weird in my eyes that it drains so much in less than an hour.
If i was in your place i would uninstall Facebook and FB Messenger and Instagram then charge the phone to 100 before bed and when you wake up you should have about 96% left if it's like 90% or lower then yeah an app is running in the background syncing and won't let your phone go to to sleep and my bet is on those 3 apps Or just turn off Sync from the pull down menu and see what happens, let us know here what you find out good luck

Bad reception or low signal drains battery because the phone is actively looking for better signal or closer cell tower if you have 1 bar or 2 bars i would turn off data or switch to wifi if you're home. Another thing also another member above said Facebook and Facebook Messenger are FAMOUS like i mean Arnold Schwarznegger famous for draining the battery in the background because they are constantly doing shady stuff when you're not looking syncing messages or listening to push notifications, also that Instagram looks suspicious as hell, i don't have one but it looks weird in my eyes that it drains so much in less than an hour.

Battery doesn't deteriorate that fast unless you let the battery drain all the way to 0 multiple times. Lithium ion batteries have a finite amount of charges to them, it is best to keep the battery in the range of 20% to 80%.
Download an app called AccuBattery i have the full version you can find out the status of your battery and what's going on with it

I know, I am charge it when it goes to 5% and leave it to 96% . Every day I must charge my phone 2 times.
Also I have the full version of this application on my smartphone, it's just shows the battery life while having this app in the background but it keeps drain because it consume battery.
I will download it again and see the battery .
Weird cuz after flashing the official firmware nothing changes....

What do you see in 2 days of using this app ?
I noticed about 2 months ago my battery life started to tank as well. I've changed nothing about my device and when I turn data off in strictly use Wi-Fi it drains even faster even with sync all turned off

It doesn't show much it's been 2 days but something is killing your battery. I purchased the s10+ Exynos version and haven't done anything to it yet no apps installed just the firmware upgrade to CTF1 June1 security patch and battery is fine here so it must be software related.
Try to find an app called BetterBatteryStats i'm sure you heard of it that app will show you in detail who or what is preventing your phone from going into sleep even system apps are acting up it will show so try that i'm pretty sure an system app is acting up.
In my old days from kitkat and lollipop era the Google play services was always the problem back then.
I forgot also another app Wakelock Detector i don't know if that app is still around that's what i used to find out what was killing my battery on my Note 3 lol

Yeah I would install those apps i mentioned to the guy above to try and trace the cause i'm pretty sure an app or a system app is using wakelock to prevent the phone from going into sleep or deep sleep
Apps that use GPS are common and wifi as well. Lately i've been reading that last firmware update messed up the phone so one step at a time we'll find out who the culprit is
First time I see this popup.
I thought don't needed to run any commands or to be rooted.
Check this out guys. Is it bad ?
Do I need to change my battery ?
