Have you thought about wiping and trying the U firmware? I'm stock U but I have read a handful of folks notice better battery and a overall smoother experience rooted on the U vs rooted Vzw firmware. If you have the time I would think it would be worth it.

I had problems rooting the Verizon version firmware, so I flashed the 930U firmware without root. The battery life is good. It seems not to get hot as the Verizon version.

But it involves a factory reset right?

I'm old school. I clean wipe everytime to avoid problems just like this. Hell I factory reset before I flash, and after on the firmware i am starting from.

Android System and OS battery drain

I know most of the time a restart will fix this issue but I have been dealing with this for 3 weeks. Continuous restarts and no change.
Is there any way I can fix this without doing a factory restore?
I have tried restarting after full charges,
I heard that while disconnecting the charger keeping the screen awake will help but nothing.
On latest stock 4.4.2
Pics below.

Most likely it is an app you have installed. I use Greenify from the app store to hibernate apps that have wakelock issues. I would start there. You have to be rooted for this to work.

Hi,
I have the same problem since upgrading to android 4.3. I read one post and it said that upgrading to 4.4.2 will help so I upgraded it but the problem is still there. I have also done the factory reset as well as wiping cache. I turned off Wifi, sync, lowering the brightness as well as using power saving mode. I don't understand what is going on with my device. It's really annoying.
I used the BetterBatteryStats to analyse the usage of battery and this is what I got (attached below). I completely don't understand how to get a thing out of these analysis.
Please I really need help here.
Thanks.

com.lenovo.runtime Lenovo spyware?

After the whole superfish spyware scandal with Lenovo I'm curious what you guys think about this runtime from lenovo which came preinstalled on my ZUK. It basically has full device access. I tried freezing it but it keeps on running in the background. The app name is Runin-Main (com.lenovo.runtime).
Anyone did a deeper analysis of this app on and what it does?
I froze it with Titanium Backup and it stuck.
Actually on a reboot even with the files disabled, I think the start because the force close option is there, but they stay off until you reboot again.
I have the same doubt about it, also because looks really aggressive on battery drain.

Here more details.
Maybe some kind of testing/benchmarking tools?
Looks suspicious.
Same problem here, this com.lenovo.runtime is taking a lot of battery, what is it exactly? Anyone else tried to froze it or delete?
This process is only on Cyanogen OS? not on CyanogenMod?
Not showing up in my battery stats. I came across this too. It's harmless you can get to it with a button combination too. It's an engineer test. Try freezing them.
Sometimes it appears, sometimes not, is it the same on CM12.1 or only on COS12.1?
It takes a lot of battery.
This only comes preinstalled with COS12.1

SafetyNet failing

So I went to setup Android Pay and got this message:

"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I wiped Android Pay's app data and same results. So I ran a SafetyNet test and it failed.
I'm obviously not rooted or bootloader unlocked. I remember it working before. Any ideas why it won't? Anybody else on G935TUVU2APC have this issue? I'm hoping I don't have to wipe my device via Odin and start over...
EDIT: PROBLEM SOLVED. APPARENTLY USING THE CONDENSED DPI OPTION BREAKS IT. SWITCHING BACK TO STANDARD VIEW FIXES IT.

Did you happen to change your dpi?
Just through the Samsung hidden settings. Could that be it?

Wow, thanks, that was it. Lmao sucks but I guess if I use Android Pay I'll revert to the standard DPI. Good to know.

Not clear whether "trying" means you succeeded or failed. Given that ambiguity there is always this:
Flash a pure stock (Samsung factory) ROM using Odin and start from the beginning. You have nothing to lose as your phone was "hard reset"
Thanks for your concern but where can I download it easily cos I try downloading it from sammobile but no way

You might have to buy a membership there (sammobile) - I recently tried downloading with my freebie account and it didn't work. (It is possible that was due to my browser type or ad-blocker issue though. I was using both an off-beat linux browser and multiple ad blockers. Someone recently suggested that might be the trouble. I didn't investigate further.)
Do you know the android version and the firmware version?
