Voice calls uses a lot of battery

My phone is SM-G900H (Exynos Variant)
Today I made a 1hour call over Bluetooth headset and I noticed that this took more battery than the whole things including the screen during the day.
Why is voice call could even possibly eat up battery like that?

3 hour 22 min screen on time at 43% battery - you are getting way better battery life many users. Doesn't seem to be any battery issues with your phone.

The only battery related disadvantage of the G900H, the modem seems to use more power compared to the Qualcomm version.
As the above post mentioned, your battery life is still good, mostly thanks to the A7 cores that use less power in the lighter tasks.

Battery Life on Verizon

So my s5 is at 75% with just 40 minutes of screen on time, so by this math it'll be about 2.5 hours screen time when it dies on it's twelfth hour. It seems to me like the battery should be better. Is this similar to what others are getting. Usually android proces/system aren't at the top but they are here.

lol mine is at 3hrs at 50% so my math says that i will prob get 7hrs screen on time...
my recommendation would be that you check on what apps you are installing and see the phone settings screen brightness,etc

I don't have hardly anything installed, besides if it was some app I'm pretty sure it would show up on the battery stats, that's why I'm confused.

Woeful Battery Help?

Well another battery thread from me I just can't seem to figure it out. I have been off the charger for 13 hours. My phone has less than 2 hours screen on but has used half the battery and apparently been awake for 5 of those 13 hours. I've attached multiple screen shots from better battery stats. I just don't understand what the results mean from each section.
This is on Mahdi ROM. Also battery was awful on Cloudy G3 too. I see claims of 6-8 hours screen on time and I want to get close to that. I'm not a heavy user I just browse I don't game. I've even tried greenifying stuff like Facebook Twitter etc. No help.

Would you mind downloading wakelock detector then letting it run for a day and showing me screenshots of the CPU wakelock ordered by usage (and maybe some other screenshots within the app too)?

Happy to do that whatever helps I just thought BBS was the best option I'll try using both.

Radio shows as off+battery frain

So I have been having battery issues on my Note 3 for a while now. Android system has been a large offender of using my battery, but I've also noticed that there are gaps in my mobile network signal. From this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=26891039&postcount=14 I'm gathering that my radio is off? This happens when screen is on, but mostly when it's off. During these times I can get texts, and everything works fine. Just my battery starts to drain faster. The area under my camera also gets rather hot. This is my 2nd Note 3 with this issue, the first one was RMAed because it would not get messages on time.
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this?
Running Jasmine ROM 2.4.1.

I believe with your radio off you should drain less battery. Mine does it too, and I have awesome battery life without being rooted. Usually well over 24 hours with heavy use, and 6 hours or more on screen time. I recently did a factory reset so maybe that's what you need for better life?

This is always my secret to extra long battery life. Purchase it from the Play Store
Android (5.1.1) doesn't need loads and loads of CPU power to function buttery smooth.
Lower the CPU clock speed, that way you'll be using less CPU power which will in turn save you battery life.
