SM-N9005 4.4.2 Battery Issue

hoping to get some help...
i have update my SM-N9005 from 4.3 to 4.4.2 through Odin. rooted. with CWM Recovery.
tried probably 3 custom ROM that support 4.4.2 and end up on the Official leaked.Build 4.4.2 ( rooted)
the battery performance is driving me crazy.
on 4.3 stand By mode i used to loose 0.8 per hour now with the same setting same features turned on. i loose 2.3 percent per hour.
on 4.3 screen time with the lowest Brightness i lost 1 percent every 10 minutes. now i loose 3% with same brightness level. 3 percent every 10 minutes.
Android OS and Android System are always on top of screen in the battery Graph. i
media is also on top of the screen in the battery graph.
have tried a lot of solutions and factory reset with no luck at all. ( i have placed the device with Airplane mode with no SUCCESS )
installed a lot of battery analyzer apps did not have a clue who's eating all the Juice.....
any idea how to fix this??

No wakelocks in BBS?

Install Better Battery Stats. Leave the screen off for 1 hour and tell us what the top Kernel Wakelocks are.

Partial Wakelocks are usually caused by apps running in the foreground. There's usually not much you can do about that. If you are actually using the phone, battery will run out. What you need to find out is what happens when you are not using the phone.
Do this:
1) Charge the phone to 100%. Disconnect the cable.
2) Let the phone sit idle for 1-2 hours with screen off.
3) Get Kernel Wakelocks from Better Battery Stats.
Then you'll know what's eating your battery when you are not actually using the phone.
In my case, I get ril-fd, l2-hsic and wlan_rx_wake wakelocks the most. I know the causes, but I can't do anything about them without rooting.

I've noticed the first 10 percent (from 100 to 90) go away fast as hell. Use your phone as you would today, just make sure you have enough juice by the end of the day. Leave it as it is overnight and then post your screenshots.. You don't seem to have any wakelocks so your battery shouldn't be draining.. Mine is going like 1% for 8 hours or something, the problem starts when I turn me screen on lol!

I had this problem on my all my Samsung device
the only solution was to take out the battery for a few seconds
worked for me on
note 2 and 3
s4 9505 and 9500

i am loosing more than1.5% per hour where on stand by mode... everything is switched of.f im surprised there is no wakelocks showing... ill wait till the end of the day.
its been 4 hour since last charge and now im on 93%..
im assuming the drain is happening due to the bad reception where i am at.
how do you manage 1% per 8 hours that's Awesome (knock on wood) :laugh: .. is this with WIFI and Data on?

i don't understand ... how come i have no wakelock after screen off.. and my battery draining 1.5 % per hour on stand by mode.... and android Os always on top ?

BBM.
And I haven't done anything special, actually you have to do something to NOT get great battery life while idle. After a factory reset, nothing disabled (so G+, G search and all those wake cycles still present) with WiFi off and Mobile Data ON I lost the usual 1 to 2% per 8 hour sleep. The problem starts for me when I turn on my screen, not when it's turned off

What are the causes for wlan rx wake? 12hsic is related to mobile data i guess.

It's caused by broadcast packets sent by other devices in your network waking the phone up. The solution is to install a custom kernel that filters such packets.

[Q] Horrible battery drain

I'm using CM 11 (4.4.2) and MKernel.
As the title says,I am experiencing massive battery drains for no apparent reason.I charge my tablet at night (because it doesn't only discharge instantly,but also takes forever to charge - even if i'm not using it),at 12,I unplug it at 5-6 in the morning,and when I get back home at 2-3 it has 40-60% battery left.Not to mention how fast it discharges when I use it during the day.(like 1-2% per minute when I am just browsing)This shows in android: http://m.imgur.com/ZxxQZFu and this in gsam: http://m.imgur.com/UecetMU,BEa31nR,azM4kqq,DS5Ts3e,Sz5PQYv (i know,custom kernel,but the stock one was draining almost the same percent).I've disabled some gms services with android tuner but I dont't see a major change.FYI: my location ,location history,sync are always off and thre brightness is almost always at 0% and I don't have any rouge app. Any ideas what could it be?
BTW: Does anybody know what (wrong) service I disabled because no google app is able to connect to the internet anymore.

Maybe,but I have no ideea which one could.I can give you a list with my apps if you want.

Those screen shots aren't the helpful ones. You need screens of held awake time, and times waking device from Gsam. The main Gsam screen is helpful too.
....and you need Gsam root companion installed to see those wake screens.

Battery drain on stock 4.4.2

Can someone please tell me why these 2 things are consuming so much of battery??
Although the screen on time is around 2 hours...

That's pretty bad screen on time. Normal use got me about 2h SOT at 70%. Check if you enabled sync or NFC.

sync is enabled, but nfc is not....
it has been since a few weeks, i don't know why!!
i remember watching movies on it for about 4-5 hours and battery left was about 50%

Disable sync. It takes up a lot of battery. If you can't disable, set sync interval longer or to manual.

will change the sync to off...and see if that has any significant change....thanks

No improvement even after disabling sync.
I noticed today a instant drop in battery percentage when I reboot the phone.
Also I found out in a thread about cupid showing the capacity as 2100 maH in some note 3...I found the same on mine...
Is it some calibration issue...??

First try to turn off the phone completely and turn it on again. Sometimes that may help.
Second, install Wakelock Detector to see which process eats your battery.

I tried Turning my phone completely off and then turned it on....still the battery drain was same..
finally i had to factory reset the phone, installed a few daily usage apps...and observed the battery backup.
i am getting a 27 hours of on time with 100% battery and screen on time is 2-2.5 hours for this period. Is it ok??

Not too ok, but average and acceptable.
Did you use Wakelock Detector app to check?

is there any??
UPDATE: i managed to install wakelock detector using th tcp method i found, will update you after 1 or 2 charge cycles....thanks

What's the update on the battery issue? Which custom ROM are using on Note 3 now?

Almost 100% Awake time draining my battery

My battery life had previously been fine. We had that last security update from AT&T and suddenly, my device is awake almost 100% of the time. Android OS is always at the top of my stats and awake time shows at 99%. I used the light version of Wakelock Detector (which doesn't require root) and it's not really showing anything, but I deleted all apps showing the most wakelocks anyway and I'm still at 99% wake time. I even took out my SD card to test that and it hasn't changed anything. I also disabled GPS to test and "awake time" still stayed at max.
I'm on the verge of wiping it, but I have already done that once to resolve other issues and I know there has to be a cause to all of this. Is anyone else experiencing this since the last update? Anything I haven't tried that someone recommends? I have not installed any new apps or anything.
One thing to note is that my drain is only around 1%/hr at idle, but I'm pretty sure the phone still shouldn't be awake almost 100% of the time.

1%/hr drain while idle means 4 days of standby i think you're fine

That doesn't change the fact that the phone is awake over 99% of the time. After a wipe, it's no longer going that and my idle drain is less. So, something was clearly wrong.

Yeah, you're right if the behavior is different after resetting the phone. I was wondering if maybe Wakelock Detector might see certain features of the QC820 like AOD as applying a wakelock.

Phone stays awake after being taken off charge

Hi there
Topic says it all.. when I take the phone off the charger after it has got to 100%, it will stay awake until I start using the phone.
This might sound insignificant, but I normally charge my phone at night - and if I wake up at say 2am and it's charged I just unplug it. The next time I use the phone around 7am, the battery will be down to 93% or something. This is because the phone remains awake for this 5 hour period.
As soon as I start to actually use the phone, it will begin to sleep as normal. I know phones stay awake while on charge so it's almost like this continues when unplugged. Has anyone else noticed this or can someone test to see if theirs does the same? Basic test is:
1) Charge to 100%
2) Unplug ONLY - don't unlock the phone
3) Leave it idle for 30 mins
4) Check the battery stats
Phone is on stock NPN25.137-33
Thanks
James

I can confirm this.

When you check the battery stats, what thing consumes the battery there?

It will just say "phone idle" which is absolutely useless. I'm not rooted so trying to find a wake lock is more difficult... my guess is it would just classed as a charge wake lock even though the phone is unplugged.

Have you ever made any progress on working out what is causing it? I installed wakelock detector but nothing is jumping out at me.

I am not rooted so it is impossible for me to find the reason.
