You can try the recommended solutions if you see that your accu is draining by AndroidOS.
But they are only temporally.
Sometimes Restart help, if not, clear Google play services CACHE, shut down and remove accu for short time.

Any other tips aside from these? This is really a problem that's firmware related?

I'm not sure that it is. Sometimes my battery runs out really fast, just a day
Sometimes it Lasts really well.
It's horribly unpredictable, but I don't think it's firmware. A firmware problem would be consistent.
Currently my battery is at 55% and it's been running 1 day 19 hours. Same usage as normal.

have u do a factory reset after update ? i had do a factory reset through setting but problem still occur. i will try to do factory reset in recovery mode to check whether it solve or not. btw, what is the difference between do a factory reset in setting and do it in recovery mode ? which one is better ?

No, I didn't reset it after Update, because I do it few days before. I try first the reset in settings. Bug already exists. Then I used the recovery menu, clear cache and do a factory reset. Same Bug comes few hours later back.
I read in German forum that other people do the same after the new update, but same s h i t with AndroidOS comes again.
After I read this I tried no factory reset by myself.
I don't know there is any different between booth ways to reset your device

Yes, I think the MJ7 has a bug since few weeks ago at the point, where Google is updated any f....ing Service in the Background.
I don't know, maybe the NSA need a full Copy off all calls, messages and location movements every second, not only in 15 Minutes steps!? :-/

okay...i never used MK2 in Germany.
I have my Note 3 since 29.08.2013 without problems! Nothing changed last 4 weeks!
Few days ago i realized the battery drain issue, because i dont use the phone, but battery goes down.
I look in the battery infomation, the AndroidOS is now on top of all Apps and Services that running the whole day

The easiest way to fix this until a new firmware is released is to disable "Use Wireless Networks" under "Location Services". This has fixed mine for the past couple of weeks. As soon as I turn it back on, battery life sucks!

In my experience this is not a solution to the bug that the OP is writing about and which makes so many people lose their mind over the ridiculous battery drain.
Tried though (because it was turned on for some reason) and will look what my battery says tomorrow morning (not charging over night).

I have a thread here helping on this issue. Cheers!

[Q] charging issue?

First a bit of history,
Ive had my i9505 for about a month now and its been rooted pretty much the entire time, i flashed foxhound rom with faux kernel a few days ago and this morning i took my phone off charge to find it only had 5%,
So i placed it back on charge and nothing happened, i tried another outlet and a different charger and also by usb but nothing happens,
The only thing that seems to do something is turning off the phone and placing on charge but all that happens is it vibrates every 10-15 seconds.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Steve.
That sounds like a broken usb-port

that was my first thought but after searching google it seems fairly common and possibly software related
try another cable

when you mean it is software related, try to make a factory reset.
I know, it is not the best way, but than you can exclude a software problem.
But as first you must charge your accu nearly full, e.g. in another SGS4

Dont worry.. I am lucky enough I havent got such issue.
Charge your mobile for atleast 8 hours with mobile turned off and then switch it on. :good:

The most recent Samsung updates are terrible for battery. Simple.
AndroidOS Bug!!!
Comes after Background Updates from Google. Many users have this issue. They are many threads about this. Just search "AndroidOS Bug"

Not quite normal - you need to check the wakelocks and see what program keeps the system awake. Look after better battery status and/or wakelock detector.
I have done some testing and found that "Google Play Services" is the cultprit. I can correct it by turning off "Use Wireless Service" under "Location Services" but then some apps doen't work well.
"Google play services" and "AndroidOS"
Booth are at the moment the most problems (accu draining) , because the phone goes not in deep sleep. Booth are bugs from Google after Update. The phone is sometimes always awake and drain the accu.
I found no solution at the moment.
Only some temporally things that you can do. Clear cache from "Google play services" then remove accu and restart. Helps only for a short time.

[Q] Note 3 random powers down

For about a Week my note 3 started to just power down. Sometimes it happens when I deactivate the lock screen or it might happen when Im just using my phone.
I have updated it to kitkat N9005XXUENB3_N9005OXXENB1_XEO and have tried other custom roms and it still is doing the same. PLEASE any advice would be awesome!
thanks in advance.

Try FULL wipe (Including wiping internal sd) and then reflash the ROM and see if it still continues, if it does... You might have to take the device in for servicing.
Thanks for the reply. I have triped knox so how can i take it in for a service? Could it be anything else apart from a hardware fault?? Thanks
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Still trying to find out if this is a hardware issue or softwear. Any tips guys?
Sent from my SM-N9005 using Tapatalk
Well, if it will be a real problem than you should still take it into service, maybe that guy will forget to check the knox.
I'm starting to notice that I'm not getting no power downs when the charging lead is pluged in the phone.
Might it be a battery issue? If so how much does one cost for a note 3?

I had the same problem with my n7100 a few months ago.
the problem was, that one of the 4 battery contacts was a bit dirty (dont ask how this happened :silly, so a hard (or less hard) shake of the phone could interrupt the contact for a moment and the phone restarted.
I know its unlikely, but better check it before sendind it to the service
Yes it's working fine now for a few days....got a tooth pick and cleaned the contacts and everything is all fine.
Going to order another battery for backup also.
Thanks guys.
