Losing 1% of battery every 3 mins - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I recently came from AOSP ROM because my battery life was horrible. I'm not exactly sure what's going on. I really hoped it was the software but that doesn't seem to be the issue.

This is my third s5 and the problem still persists. I just want to get 5 hour of screen time like some people claim to get.
Any help is appreciated[emoji1] !

Probably all the live apps you have running in the background, your top taskbar is full of running apps

First two pics are System Panel, next is Spare Parts (included in CM6 but available on the market as well), next four are the Battery Status panes in the About dialog from the phone's Settings menu, and then finally it's Spare Parts again.

Trying to find certain asks that will stay on screen always.

My question may sound confusing but I'm looking for asks that will always stay on my screen.
The purpose of this us to get rid of the status bar in which I feel is so expired but should still pull down when there is a notification. Anyways here's is what I got so far

I have the battery always showing which is nice. Now if I could have a time one I'll be happy. A date one and signal is a plus but not nessassary. Sorry I can't spell.
It's like how windows phone is set up how you can use your full screen but still know what's going on with your phone at a glance which I'd what I'm trying to aim for.

Screen time differences?!

Something strange is happening with my s5. Two different apps show completely different screen times.
3.30 hours vs 1.45
How is that even possible.

no idea i normally only have the screen on when i can see the phone so i know the times anyway
Use a different monitor. The stock one is correct
I also get a difference between my lock screen time and top right

Recently started getting weird gradient in most apps

Can close the thread. Still don't know why it happened but a restart fixed it.
-----------
Is this a known thing? I first noticed it in the Google Messenger app but it seems to have spread to most apps. I'm running stock (MPH24.49-18) without root on Verizon.
Included Tapatalk screen as an example, can barely read the recent changes block in the play store due to the gradient.

Try to disable wi-fi scanning, turn on smart power and update your software. Which model are you using?
Try calibrate battery - there is a few app with root on play store
Less coffee for your device.
