Samsung Galaxy S4 Battery Drain Fast

Hello,
I got the S4 (I9500) since 6 month and the battery is great. it stands for approximately 2 days with decent usage.
recently i got my fiancee the (I9505) but the problem is the battery drain incredibly fast.
She charge it 100% and after 6 hours sleeping in the morning the battery will be 60% with 0 usage.
although i did her mobile setting exact to my mobile setting. and even we tried to make it less but still the same result.
I don't know why this happening although she did the latest update.
Disable Google sync, location, Greenify apps and use BetterBatteryStats to check what's using the battery maybe wakelocks

Poor batter life

I changed from Note 3 to s 6 edge plus recently
The battery drops 5% per hour overnight when not in use. If I go to bed with less than 40% battery at night I am sure to wake up with my phone switched off in the morning.
When in use with screen on, the battery drips one percent every two minutes. This is the worst battery life I have ever seen in a phone. I was a long loyal customer of samsung and this is my last samsung phone ever.
Extremely disappointed
Please post your battery stats ? so we can have a better understanding of your problem. I suggest you install 'Doze' which should stop unnecessary apps from connecting to the internet and causing your phone to awake from deep sleep.
Dear Akbar 11
Heres the battery stats....is it normal?
I had the same issue, and as far as I managed to find out, it is a bug in Samsung's kernel. Flashing Arter97 kernel solved the issue for, but do post battery stats from SmartManager. If it says 'Android' or 'Android OS', then you have the same problem many of us do.
I don't think it's a kernel problem. My android OS is very low 4%. Like zoolok said post your battery stats from settings, battery, battery usage
I have the same problem. Battery was great before I flash custom rom. After going back to stock I have big battery draining. I must stay on custom rom. With Audax rom and Skyhigh kernel i have great battery life.
You have either messed up something big or you have an app in the background that is eating up your battery like no tomorrow.
And the reason i say that is because i recently got this battery life on my Galaxy S6 edge+.
And this was taken 2 days ago.
Here i use the CRISSCROSS ROM, AudaxPro Kernel, Greeinify and Samsung's own 'Appoptimizing' feature (same as Doze in Android 6.0).
So my battery life is pretty awesome.
i have problem whit battery lose 25% when i sleep
This is a usual day with s6 edge plus
Any help?

i have this problem battery ... if u fixed it tell me how?
Well I was expecting Google Play Services to be eating your battery (which is quite common) but it looks like your Andriod OS is eating the most battery. I would uninstall Facebook and use the web version it always helps with the ram and battery furthermore, turn off location if you are not using it and check accounts which are being synced. These are the only tips I can give you as I have never seen Android OS drain so much battery.
Since a few days Google Play Store is eating up my battery: I go to sleep with 100% batt and wake up with 50%, if I check batt stats on top I have play store at 45%, with 5h active a d 2h of CPU.
Follows Android system at 5%.
Going crazy why...

You've charged your phone 4 times during that day. I can't see what's the interesting part here.

Help with new s7 edge PLEASE

Hello,
After reading alot of reviews about the s7 edge battery life i decided to get it. so i got 2 days ago and was really excited about it. the problem the battery is draining so fast and thats really confusing
ive seen screenshots with 50 hours and 60 hours with estimated time. mine barely shows 7 hours. today for example i left the house at 8 with 92% and now im back wth 36% left screen was on auto with wifi
and 3g and sometime gps on. is this normal? am i being paranoid? is it true that the battery will get better with more days of use?
Please tell me what should i do im really worried that its faulty or something.
PS: i did a factory reset before i use it.
Yes, it will take a couple of days for the battery to level out. Do you have the Exynos or Snapdragon processor? What apps are reporting high battery use? Have you disabled any apps?
Sorry for the barrage of questions, but all of these things play a role in your battery life. I recommend GSAM battery monitor and Greenify with aggressive doze, but I will say that 50-60 hours is ambitious. I can usually get 25-30 hours with about 5 hours of SOT. That is with a combination of wifi, 4g, gps and Bluetooth on (android wear), some gaming and facebook, instagram, etc.

Hi thanks for the reply, yeah its my fault i forgot to mention some information
I am using the Exynos model in Netherlands. the screen is always on the top of the list of the battery usage. im using gsam to monitor the battery and i dont think there is anything unusual there android system on the top using 25% or something. im really scared of using anything so it wont die on me outside today i was only navigating and doing some whatsapp calls on the 3g network "not even 4g". i only disabled facebook and using nova launcher and the AOD is off also. im not sure if i should send it back... how many days are we talking about for the battery to get better? i only want somehow a good battery not worse than my old grand prime. as i said i got it wendesday's evening and now its friday and its still bad

If I'm reading correctly, you are losing about 60% in 5 hours? If so, that is definitely excessive even during the first 2 or 3 days unless the screen was on and the phone active the entire time. Can you post screen shots of you battery stats? Maybe some app is causing the problem, but is not being reported as using too much battery.
Some folks say that the different firmwares have different battery usage. Has yours updated?

ok someone told me to turn it off and charge to 100% so i dont have enough data now. but im doing a test now with pokemon go lol
the screen is on about 70% brightness wifi and gps are on and radio is off (i have low cell signal now) and music app playing in the background and now after 50 minutes i am at 89% with screen on all the time. do you think this is good or bad?
i just noticed something in most of the screen shots from other people gsam shows about 3.80v near the temperature but mine show 4.07v does this makes any difference?
That sounds normal for an hour of paying Pokemon Go. It's pretty battery intensive. That voltage is just the current battery charge. It'll drop as your battery percent drops.

I've been getting huge battery drains with Android System and Android OS taking up about 32% of battery life the past 2 months, with no big change in my apps or usage. Seems to even happen in flight mode and screen off....I'm starting to fear it's some google app that broke for our phone, trying to find the cause using BetterBatteryStats ATM.
I encountered 22% Android System usage and it's draining my battery. After a full charge, it takes 10 hours I didn't touch my S3 Neo and the battery is 72%.
I don't know what is the problem. Because the OS should work transparently with minimum CPU and battery usage.

Battery usage .. Are these stats normal

hello guys, i bought my u ultra about 2-3 months ago and immediadetly updated it to android oreo.. The maximum SOT i reach is about 3 hours only .. Is this normal?? Mobile network standby is always on the top of battery usage. Do you guys get more SOT?? Attached is a screen shot of my battery usage.

Yeeaahhh battery life on this phone really is nothing to brag about. I'm insanely annoyed by it and have reached a point where I kind of avoid using my phone as I don't want to charge it more than once a day. 3 hours sound familiar...i get roughly the same. I do have the "second screen" disabled so maybe that helps a little
From my personal experience when i switch to LTE i can get barely 2hrs of SOT.Setting phone to 2g/3g i can manage 3-4 hrs.Im using single sim EU model.I doubt that HTC will fix this.
Never tried setting it to 2g/3g ..i will for couple of day and see if there is an improvment...
Well drain was still high so i googled problem little bit more.Some people says its problem related to android Orene guy said that he managed to fix it a little by ENABLING Data Saver.Aparently it does not effect aps too much and u can still manually exclude them from saving.
i tried that and down there are my stats.
For me it fixed a problem.
Try it
