Your not alone, i always experience this, i just learned to live with it well until an maybe an update will fix this i think there is a problem with the android system, you can still try to calibrate your battery though it didnt work for me

It is definately the android system. There is another thread here where the samsung rep says they know about this version of android and the battery issue. My tab went to zero yesterday in ten seconds. It took me a long time to get the battery meter to show it was charging again.

yep, i second you bro, if a lot of people are experiencing this then it may be due to some bug or something on the system i think its its definitely not the hardware if it is shame on samsung for manufacturing faulty devices, well lets hope for the update

Has anyone tried calibrating the battery? I just received a Tab for testing and it was used prior. Some battery monitor apps reported less then 12hours available after a full charge. After I calibrated it, i'm getting ~28 hours / moderate use before battery is depleted. What amazes me with the Tab is that when idle (overnight) there is no decrease in battery levels and graphing shows a complete flat line when idle.
I love this device

I have done all of the battery recalibrations suggested here on xda to no avail. The only thing that has helped me is plugging in a portable kennsington battery by usb that tricks the battery indicator and it seems to slow down my battery drain.
Said at all, i have to get use to with it, right???

Try doing a resetting on the tab, and do a full charge, I mean let it charge for 8 hrs continuously.
If it can't work, bring it to Samsung for firmware upgrade (takes about an hour), after which do the same, long charging.
Last option, ask for an exchange with Samsung.
Rooting it has never been my option

If you can let go your tab to them for a couple of days, you can ask them to check on the status of the battery as well.

Hey guys, I was in the same boat (you can see my posts on other threads) and I have tried pretty much everything from flashing rom, resetting, calibrating, and bump charging. Last night I decided to open up the tab and look at the battery, thinking maybe I should buy a new battery to test.
Long story short, I disconnected the battery from the board and let it sit for 15mins before reconnecting. I check every couple hours to see the battery level in android. So far, I only lost 1% for 20hrs in flight mode w/o any app running. I usually lost 20% overnight and would regain that after reboot. So the problem is GONE and the system is reporting the right battery percentage without fake dropping.
I will continue to monitor it and report back, but it looks great so far. Hope this helps other XDA fellows.
Thats actually ive been wanting to do just prick it open, funny though i my problem resolved it self, last night i keep rebooting my tab up to the point it hangs and froze then i left it like that for an hour then i pressed the power button for around 10 seconds to reboot it again, once it booted up it showed the correct percentage, now im still monitoring if the trick went well..

Hi Shinji, it is quite unbelievable that the tab only drain 1% for "20hrs". But it is great, if opening the tab can solve battery issue. Now, I myself encounter some other new problems, after I solved the sudden drop in battery issue by upgrading to new firmware (e.g. 50% => ask me to shut down). Now, no matter how I charge, it will remain 67 or 70%............
Do you have the instruction to open up the tab, or any link which you can lead me too? Thanks.
Hey henrylam do you charge phone whilst on and how long do you charge for before you get fed up waiting for it to move from 70% and remove charger ?

I try both, on and off, sometimes it work sometimes it doesn't. After I have done factory reset, it seems ok for first 3 cycles. After that, the problem surfaced again.
Sometimes, it just stop charging at 65 (curvefish battery indicates) but battery icon shows like 85%. I felt like smashing the Tab and get myself a new Ipad. I am thinking to send it again to Samsung this Friday, and let them investigate for a while (hopefully 2 weeks will be sufficient). Damn it, my wife tab has no such issues. She didn't even do an upgrade on her firmware.
I'll start by saying that the attached pictures say it all folks.
I'm simply at a complete loss as to how my phone can be so awake ALL the time.
If anybody could give me ANY insight as to why it might be the case, I'd REALLY appreciate it.
Also, I can post my alarmdump.txt if anybody wants to see it.
Again, any and ALL help would be greatly appreciated. Feel free to ask me for any more info that might be of use in diagnosing the problem.
That NYC map app seems to be the culprit. As well as the Google Search widget, for some reason.
Uninstall the app, remove the widget, reboot and see if it's much better

im also curious about modem fastdormancy... i froze it because it was a wakelock culprit, but am getting really fast battery drain as well. not sure exactly what modem fastdormancy does tho
http://groups.google.com/group/android-platform/browse_thread/thread/9cb9c3e94da63110?pli=1
So basically, Modem Fast Dormancy = do not freeze. In my understanding, it has to do with the radio and disabling it when not in use, or something to that affect. I haven't studied it, but that's a quick 10 second synopsis from reading that article. I would stay away from disabling it.

Right on. And thanks for the info.
When I froze ADW I also UNfroze Fastdormancy, and then rebooted, so hopefully that'll help.
What about the wakelocks for Event Log Services?
Does anybody know if there's a way to find out exactly what that is, and if there's anything I can do about it?
Thanks for the input so far guys I REALLY appreciate, and little by little I think things are working out.
You're showing 27 hours there..................many people struggle to get 1/2 of that. I am one of the few who gets 28-30 hrs from full charge with moderate usage. I think it's fair to say you have fairly decent battery life, even with only low usage. I wouldn't complain too much.................just keep trying to make it better!

The thing is, he might have good battery life compared to others but his screen was barely on, he shouldn't be having all those wake locks. I have a similar amount too. If we could get this settled our 1 day battery life might turn into 2 days which would be amazing. I'm sure many people's phones are like this.

Yup bro this is exactly it.
It might be good battery life- but I'm not using my phone at all.
After unfreezing Modem Fastdormancy I've definitely got less unexplained blue in the "awake" time graph. I also froze ADW and that seemed to help.
Thing is, there is still lot of mysterious chunks when my phone is awake.
BetterBatteryStats says Alarm Manager and Event Log services are to blame (top two- represent a substantial percentage of the partial wakelocks and thus time awake).
I'm about to terminal emulator dumpsys my alarmdump.txt, but is there a similar solution for Event Log Services that will allow me to see EXACTLY what's putting it at the top? Only clue it gives is that it's apparently "Google Services."
Past that I've got no clue what it's pointing to.
If I get the Event Log Services fixed, I'd venture to say that would solve a LOT of problems for me.
Thank you guys for everything so far. You laid out some really good and interesting ideas- ones that I definitely wouldn't have thought of.
I'm very, very appreciative, and if it's not too much trouble, bros, KEEP IT COMING!
Ultimately, I want OTHERS to be able to reference this thread in their quest for a better Atrix, and maybe even a better android phone in general!

I honestly always had battery issues with cm7 keeping the phone awake. I switched back to Alien ROM an now my battery life is back to normal, around 42hours. I also saw great improvement when I uninstalled Watchdog while I was on cm7 and so thus I have never reinstalled it again.
Well,
Due to this post I checked my Atrix and saw that it wont go to sleep as well, and stay practically always awake. I started using AntTek App manager to freeze some apps that worked all the time (mainly Facebook and an israeli VOD app) and the phone started to go in sleep. I dont know how it will affect the battery life (which is about 16 hours from 100% to ~5%, with data always open), but I will test it for now and report once I have some news...
BTW Im running CM7-Ba2tF, with faux123 enhanced 1.0 Ghz Kernel, and UV.
Any idea how to know whats running Using the android system. Its sending data somewhere i think and its draining my battery as well. Adds up heating my phone up as well.
My battery went down from 97% to the one indicated in the screenshot. Help please... Im beginning to hate android now with this lackluster battery life. This just happened yesterday. Everything was fone before that.

I think I have this problem too. Or I'm really paranoid about my battery. I did a factory reset a few days ago, but it was fine before that. Usually my screen is the #1 battery consumer, now Android System is 75%.
Did you update your firmware? I'm running ME2 and had no problems whatsoever before that.
I downloaded "battery stats plus" and the issue might be the "camera test"?
I dont think the firmware updated has something to do with it? Not sure though.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using Tapatalk 2
Downloaded that app, and Camera Test shows pretty high on mine as well. About 1,73% though, but with a bit over 5 hours without charging. It's been using my camera sensor 2 hours out of 5.
I think this is a really good case for the experts in the better battery stats thread. They have a special procedure to help you quickly solve the problem.
Read the OP, or if its a multiple post OP read them. It says exactly how to let the phone sit idle (i think I recall its 4 hours) and get some specific info and post it and they will help you narrow down exactly what's causing it but also give a solution.
I have a job interview in just a bit, and am in a hurry but wanted to share that with you.
I have an idea what the problem might be and those guys actually have a really good solution to fix it without having to eliminate anything and just changing some settings.

I think google and samsung apps might be the problem. Tried to open and setup to not use any data on all google and samsung apps. Namely google setting app, samsung hub, samsung link, Keis, etc.
Update them all via samsung hub and possibly download kies air from samsung app store. Was trying to setup them while charging the phone. Location based apps was also turned off for using gps or data. Turned off notifications on them as well unless you do want to be notified.

Before the update my battery life was ok, now it drains so fast im not sure what the update did but they need to fix this problem. Anyone else experiencing the same issue?
Check what is using a big part of your battery in the settings. Chances are that Google Services is near the top of the list. If so, delete your Google acct and then sign back in. This cured the problem for me....now, Google services settles near the bottom of the list. After doing this my battery life is much better but still a bit below battery life of MDL.
Very very vague.

Well, when it comes to these kind of things the OP has no idea what is causing the issue and apparently has done nothing different because if he did and saw a difference he would have either said what he did or reverted back to before he did whatever he did end up doing so actually it was quite clear. Something is happening as far as battery issues for him versus MDL and from what Igot from OP he has done nothing to it or done nothing different than his previously decent battery setup. Just saying.

My phone was at 100% this morning when i left for work at 7AM, i played a few races on FF6 and listened to music for a while. I am at work and it is now 8:47 and my battery is at 60% I went to the battery section and it says my screen uses 50% but i have the auto screen brighness on and the power saver mode on also. Before the update i would be at around 80% with the same use. I dont have Google Now enabled.

So, in just under 2 hours, your battery drained 40%, with about 30 minutes of on-screen time. That by itself seems to be higher than expected drain for the battery. But you indicated a few races on FF6, and listening to music (I'm not sure what FF6 is, but if it is CPU intensive, maybe that contributed to the drain).
Did you have kernel or partial wakelocks from GPS or something else? How much was your sleep time? (I think you need betterbatterystats to check that, unless you have another similar app that will give you that detail).

...and just the same that you expect others to not assume they changed something - you also can't just assume that because they didn't say anything that it means he DID change anything either.
By the looks of the subsequent and actually HELPFUL posts after yours, there's enough useful information to give them some traction on a resolution. Especially for those that apparently fit the under the original assumption that they didn't change anything with the update.

@saintholigan. So you're saying if I had battery drain and needed some.help I would make a thread and just say. My battery life sucks, what's wrong? You would all automatically assume I didn't change anything.
@OP
I would suggest to go to a stock rooted ROM and flash a different kernel other than stock MF9, then google search "better battery stats XDA". There should be a link to XDA that has a free version. Make one or two full discharges with that app and it will tell you if there is any wakelocks or apps that might be draining your battery.

I wpuld suggest Backup your apps/data using mybackup. Redownload ROM, go into recovery, wipe /data /cache /dalvic, reflash, and restore apps (apks w/o data I get FCS fro, apk+data) and data. Should fix your battery problem.

I say go odin back to stock mf9 and check whether your phone still gets hot or anything and to let your battery sink in for awhile then root and install your rom. Before doing this back up apps and internal memory since it will wipe it clean.

Okay, and I also forgot to mention when I hold down the home button and it shows recent apps, there's some weird thing called "MIPerractivity" or something like that. I have no idea what that is..

Having the same problem here.
Any help appreciated.
Same, MF9 update from MDL stock, unrooted
I'm having the same issue (coming from MDL stock, unrooted).
Is it the ROM? Is it Google Play? I'm not sure anymore, but i'm severely annoyed.
I had this problem until
I was experiencing the same issue on my phone. note I'm stock and not rooted. Until I updated the samsung apps.
For some reason the samsung app store had an update and was constantly waking my phone for the update, but because I had never agreed to the TOS(becuase I never opened the app) it wouldn't update resulting in battery drain.
I stumbled on the answer in a forum in regards to the G Note II. I was skeptical as to why it wouldn;t show the samsung app as being the culprit(something about using the google services core functions to update), but I know that it worked.
I'm sure an experienced dev can better explain why it shows as android os and not the Samsung app causing the drain.
If you already removed/froze those apps though I suppose you have a different issue.

Just did that and I never opened the "Samsung Apps" app too and just got the update. Hopefully this will fix it (Google Play services drain). Thanks man!
Shut down
Battery out for 30 secs
Restart
Worked for me
You could try a different kernel too. I use AGAT's Kernel. That kernel gives me SO much more battery juice.

Same thing has been happening to me since last night I woke up to my phone charging at 150+ degrees and ever since ive had crazy battery drain, and the android core apps is the main suspect
