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

[Q] S4 Battery Drain Caused By Apps

I recently purchased a new Samsung Galaxy S4 (9505 version) to replace my HTC One X as the battery life was awful. I was shocked that the S4 actually had a much worse battery life than my old HTC One X. After a factory reset on the S4 and everything turned off (GPS, Wifi, Bluetooth, 3/4G, Account Sync), the battery would only last 12 hour on standby without any usage.
I eventually chose to install a custom rom, and went with this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2544474
I found the battery life MASSIVELY improved with this rom. I went from getting 12 hours on standby with the stock rom, to 48 hours of light usage with the custom rom. However, after I installed all my apps, and I only have about 10, the battery drain came back. None of the apps I use are active background processes, and I even installed Greenify to Hibernate any running apps. I have WiFi/GPS/Bluetooth/Sync turned off. I don't understand why I am getting 48 hours of battery without my apps, and only 12 hours of battery with my apps installed even though none are running. According to the battery stats, it is "Phone Idle" which is taking all the battery, none of the apps are even listed on there.
Any ideas why this is?
Could be a app that have installed. My s4 on stock with light use could go by 3 days. Charged this morning and have now 83% with call and text a bit of Internet

This is because of batterystats.bin file. While flashing custom rom, be sure you battery is 100%. Use advanced option in CWM to remove batterystats.bin. Or you can manually remove this file using Root explorer data/system/batterystats.bin after flashing the rom. Use Easy battery calibration from google play. You should be at 100% battery before using this app. DO as it say. Then after calibrating, without charging discharge your battery to 0% until it switched off itself and cannot boot(Note: It is not good for long-term battery life) Then charge your phone to 100% in off mode. Boot it and again charge it to 100%. Now it should help with your battery life

Battery Life Discussion Here

Hi everyone
what dou think about Note 3's battery life?
I'm on Aryamod (n9005) and it's battery life better than other ported roms cause Aryamod most close rom to stock rom.
i also using Dual boot App which is let you swicth between roms. i suggest this app to all of you. i also using xposed modules like greenify, amplfy and hibernation manager. i most be honest that there is no big changes with these modules. my phone's battery draining in 1 day. i don't know what will i do anymore.
i guess kitkat's battery performance was better than lollipop. i was using my phone at least 2 days when i was on kitkat but sometimes i charhing my phone 2 times on lollipop anymore. i doing everything for get longer battery life but as i said before it draining so fast.
i purchased my phone approximately 2 years ago and may be my battery dying anymore. what you think?
can you write your opinions about battery life and kind of these apps?
have a great times with more battery

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.

Battery drain

I have a Verizon HTC10 with Oreo, software version 3.18.605.13. A few days ago, the battery begins to drain much faster. I install Gsam Battery monitor and the analisys results that Combined app cpu apk is using a 20% of battery, any idea of solution for this problem?
