If I'm correct that's basically if you are playing music and such throughout the Bluetooth than that is the media that's killing your phone
Edit: it actually has the name of things that are causing the media

Mediaserver and audiout

Recently I had some process called Mediaserver eating more battery than the screen. I fixed this by uninstalling music and removing all of my songs (lousy solution btw) but now BBS states that there is a wakelock called audio out eating all my battery which is just really weird.
Anyone have solutions for this?

battery draining issue

I bought a new I9505 for my girlfriend. it seems to have very serious battery draining problem. a standard over night standby, doing nothing, wifi connected, battery would drain 30~50%. I tried many different roms and kenrnels, they all work the same way. I also tried deleting batterystatus information file, still no luck. could anybody tell me what's going on with the i9505?
here are some screendhots of the battery usage.

Nope, can't tell you why. Get better battery stats and figure out what's keeping your phone awake and using the battery.
It'll be an app she has installed. You have to find out which one through process of elimination

I found an app called alarmmanager woke the system around 200times in roughly 4hrs. is this the reason? if it's built in system, how do I delete it?

Try using greenify to freeze background apps that are running whilst not in use or ds battery save to force her phone to deepsleep when not in use

Please help me find why my phone is staying awake.

My phone seems to be staying awake a lot longer than the screen is on. I have tried wakelock detector and the apps that have kept the phone awake (Facebook being the main culprit) dont add up to anywhere near the extra wake time. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

For me a simple reboot did the trick. My phone was not switching off unless I pressed the power button, I started to get worried about a hardware issue, but now is ok.

How to kill media server battery drain

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.

What is going on with my system and google?

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
