Try GearCM, I'm testing it now and I'm impressed the battery life is way better than the last time I tested any CM-based ROM.
Alberto96 has done some great work with his ROM. Even scored 32K in Antutu, that's just as good as I get on TW.

Frm the screen shot it seems you have background processes running(BBM n alarms). If you are always on 3g/wifi then the battery draining is normal. Or you can buy a new one for your satisfaction. Or charge it fully n dont use it just check for successive draining and if it drains within minutes then buy a new one.
Turn of features like google now and google location reporting. They consume hell lot of memory. Install greenify.

Try to check your battery if it is swollen...this is the big down of s4..
Or maybe a bad flash of your rom if u have
I'm using lindroid rom and i experienced good battery life. I also tried thunder_universe rom and thorvicc did a good job...

phantom or X-Treme Roms are The best for battery life and performance.........
Yes, as they suggest X-Tream and Phantom are best for battery life but it takes charging cycles to reach the best performance. Before installing READ the instructions
roms for note 2
I think Dr- Ketan's rom is the best when it comes to battery saving options..

C-ROM worked fine for battery but it crashes a lot.
I changed to CM11 and...i am very pleased with it.

Bad battery life on CM11

Hi,
I am running the latest CM11 nightly 20141204. I just bought a new original samsung battery but still getting pathetic battery life. I am getting just half day backup with data on. Is this problem specifically with CM11 or there could be any other issue?
Try ArchiKernel, it does wonders with the battery life.

Yeah I did that. What are your settings?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using XDA Free mobile app
I have left it on the standard settings since it feels like a good balance between performance and battery life for me.

Questions go in the q&a section. Report your own post to get it moved.
Find the betterbatterystats thread and follow the OP.
cyanogen is known for the ''battery drain'' problem, i suggest you to flash boeffla kernel, with the app ''boeffla config v2" (find it on web, not in play store) and play with governors and eventually undervolts to save some battery

Hello xda members , i created this thread to everyone who can/want to share his experience about battery life in cm11 with our precious s4 .

Oh men this is a weak battery life , are you on data all the day ?

I am a very heavy user. I browse a lot on mobile data. It is a miracle that I even hit 3 hours OST at 2 % battery left. These are pretty good battery stats for me.

I'm exactly like you , i was always flashing AOSP roms then turning back to stock rom , for about a month
But finally i'm running a stock 4.4.2 rom , waiting for the 5.0 lollipop . Customs roms are good when your device don't get updates any more + i didn't find a rom as stable as stock firmware
Still have 56% of juice
