For the longest I've had this Media Server issue that would drain my battery by 35% or more and I think I may have figured out how to kill this S.O.B. Go to Settings>under account select Google>click on account> then where it says Google Play Music let it sync once then unselect it.. Haven't seen in since..
Update: Also received this from user: @xdafoundingmember seems to have killed it completely. Thank you sir https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rrr.android.mediaserverkiller

got it!!
OK, so mediaserver was killing my battery too. I did some digging with the digging being geared towards media and serving information. Turns out, for me anyway, that the Google play store was using twice the amount if background data as it was foreground data so, I checked the box to restrict background data and vioala!!!! Mediaserver went from using over forty percent to, now, 3 percent. I've been on battery all day from 8am, it's eleven now and I'm at 81 percent writing this.
I had mediaserver killer set to kill on screen on and I had camera FC issues so I set it to intervals and now it's great. Just FYI for those who use it.

Was just wondering if it is normal to have the media server with that keep awake and is this a wake lock?

Or maybe it's the 3g connection.
You have a corrupted media file somewhere in your storage. Find it and delete it.

I only opened the 3g for the Xda app..do you think it might be because i left real racing 3 on the background? If its a corrupted file hire do i find it?

searching and reading can show you everything you need to know.
Only thing ive disabled is google play apps auto update.
My brightness is always at max and disabling auto updates helped me out greatly. You really don't need latest updated apps to run. Just go home and update them manually while charging.
My phone goes through over 12 hours on a single charge. But then I am not a heavy user. Just facebook, web browsing, emails when I am not on ky desks. Maybe 1 hour of phone conversation daily.

Get better battery stats app and figure out where you wake locks are. Then work on reducing them.

Wild guess here, try turning off Miracast in the notification bar toggles.
Nope, it off already...

I know the music player and video player also use dlna like example you can connect to wifi and stream music and videos from another device via dlna
This is nuts, it takes the equivalent of two hours screen time... And I don't even use it!
So the only way to disable it is by purchasing titanium backup?

Try going to settings application manager all then click on dlna and clear data force stop disable and see what happens
Did it, we'll see what happens...

Strangely the same thing just popped up for me. I've had the phone a week and never noticed dlna when looking at my battery stats. Today the phone appeared to be using more battery and dlna was the top offender for battery usage.
The app will not stop, I've cleared data and cache, tried to force stop and it just won't. I'm really not sure what is using it.
I added a lockscreen widget for the quick remote app yesterday night. I've removed that to see if it was causing dlna to run more, it doesn't seem like it should but who knows.

I wasn't either, but just today it started. I finally got the DLNA process to stop, going to watch closely and see if it kicks back on again.
I was wondering if anyone with wakelock detector can take a pic of "phone". I'm seeing a high number in RILJ, but can't remember if this is normal or not. From doing searches it says that it's Google maps related but I have all location services disabled. Not rooted if that matters. Thanks

Dude, 1 minute of wakelock for 15 hours of uptime is not an issue.

One of two things, turn it off If you don't use it, and if you do maybe try a force stop.

This app doesn't help me at all unfortunately. My issue is my phone won't sleep..in 11 hours it was awake almost 6. No clue why because better battery stats and WLD tells me nothing other than it was awake.
Anyone else experience this

Can you post a picture? Maybe you have location services on. An amazing app I use is "app ops starter". Allows you to modify permissions of apps. Don't like that a app can use your camera? Disable it. Also you can see when your apps access them. I hope this helps you out!

Android system and Google are eating my battery alive! Screen on time is about 11m and battery is at 84% with a little over 3hrs since discharge.
See screen shot..
Most of my posts are about my battery, sorry for that.. But thanks all at XDA for always helping with my amateur questions! ?

Do you have Google now enabled? If so, disable it. Also if you go into task manager and push the menu button and go to settings, you can stop any services from running. That helped me. Just stop Google services. Also at only 84%, android system usually is at the top of the list. If you look at android system there is a ton of things bundled in there. I'd wait until your batter is discharged a bit more and then check your battery stats. But try the settings in task manager, helped my battery a lot
