How long the battery was used ? open the battery and put it on a flat surface .. then flick the battery on the same plane .. if this rotates that means the battery is swollen and needs replacement .. for software tweaks .. try disable google now ..

then the battery must be the culprit...on stock s4 lp you must get around 3:30 hrs of SOT

Display consuming majority of battery means that the brightness level is not set to the low optimum.
Try reducing the brightness and retest.
I am getting 4 hours of display ON phone usage with full charge on Lollipop.

I Resolved the battery drainge problem in 2.3.4 Very Simple

hi guys i almost search every thread of battery drainage but from no where i got any solution.......after a lot of research i resolve my problem my self...........my battery of phone drain very rapidly then i download Go launcher pro and install it on my phone use this whole day as i use daily.....i m shocked to that my phone battery status is 80% remaining after using my phone 17hours 43min and 55s..........its really amazing......this thing work for me.......i m going to love it coz last time my battery drain into 12 or more than hours.........if u have problem then my advice to atleast try this thing once.........hope u ll get better results
SHould some faulty app , i had 2.1 2.2 and 2.3 on the phone i did never noticed such a huge drain , the phone was always quite enough for a full day of usage .
Any congrats on fixing your issue
Battery drain depends on the ROM ( kernel )you are using!
JYP ROM 2.3.4 ( e.g. Ficeto , Criskelo etc ) battery drain is almost not a problem at all . Battery can last up to >3 days depending on the usage .
I installed the Master CPU. Battery lasts 3 days.
I am moved from 2.2.1 on 2.3.4 JVP Chainfire kernel and I have no battery drain at all.
I think battery life increased 50% minimum. Standby on 2.3.4 is amazing
as if 2.3.4 is a little better

Hi mate ,
first thing you have to do is to review your settings , wifi , location , FB . email.........
Then use an app like

Let it run for a few hours and check the logs to see who is keeping awake your phone..

[Q] Why is my battery draning so fast on stock Lollipop HOD4 build?

So, yestarday I installed latest Russian Lollipop firmware for the i9500 (I9500XXUHOD4_I9500SERHOD4_SER) and battery, when using the phone, gives a decent SOT, maybe 3~4 hours. But when the phone is in standby mode Android OS and Android System procces take care of draining it hell fast (all of this with Save Battery Mode ON, always). Can I do something about this? Did I do something wrong? Is there another battery friendly stock Lollipop build? (Maybe one of those before HOD4).
The phone's battery is ok, it has at least 3 months of usage. It is not bloated or something like that but if you have another tip t check if its life is over I'll be glad to read it.
I neither installed some uncommon consuming battery apps, just the regular things. Even I tried to optimize it by installing Device Control and Kernel Adiutor to change some values but I had no luck so far. I have GSam Battery Monitor to check what's darining battery and Better Battery stats (although I don't really know how to use it) because I can't get Wakelock Detector to work on Lollipop. I have my phone rooted and with TWRP installed.
Cheers.
PS: SOT and general battery stats differ in 1% of battery because I first took the battery stats screenshot then put it to charge and 5 mins later I thought it would be better to add SOT to give you a refference of the use the phone has had. Not big deal.

Note 3 4.4.2 battery draining

I have a note 3 n9005 , official uk android 4.4.2 but my battery is draining to fast... in just 1h 30 mins from 100%. I have a s5 4.4.2 android and in 1h 30 mins still have 88%, same running fb and stuff. Can anyone help me ?
This is a test with an app. Should I buy a new battery ?
Try something like the GSM Battery monitor and see what apps are draining your battery .
Anker do a good replacement battery .
@ snaketk consider replacing a new battery cause this cant be a total issue or kernel or ROM
Thank you for your help guys

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.
