Hadn't really noticed a huge drain though.
Edit: I'm running DCv1.

Just checked mine. I'm at 88% display and 12% cell standby. Running Darchtrev v2.

Using DC v1
Cell Standby 70%
Phone Idle 20%
Display 8%
Android System 2%

im right there with you ajones. anybody have ideas as to why this is? i havent really seen a difference in battery life though. could just be a glitch.

Did you guys open the camera before you checked?

no. its been like that for a while. last time i used the camera was last night.

Not right before... I did use my camera today though.

I don't like telling people this because you can get in trouble by closing the wrong thing but... try a task killer and make sure the camera is completely closed.
Many Roms come with Astro of ES File Manager and those have a task viewer/killer built in.

i tried that. didnt see the camera as one of the running processes.

Maybe its an app running like goggles or barcode.

just checked. only thing that i could think of to have a hold on the camera is handcent and the messaging app. closed those. ill see what happens
*update*
so that didnt do anything. still reading at 93%. anybody have any ideas or are we just out of luck?

[Q] can someone explain to me about battery info?

Hi guys, I never really understood the meaning of those hours when i click on my battery status. On the pic shown, it says: 1H 10m 29s on battery. Can someone explain to me what that means? It seems very low to me, and i just got my phone 2 days ago. It is the octa-core version i9500.
I also see that media takes up most of the battery, and I dont know what that is.
Plz explain?

It just means your phone is for 1H10M29S unplugged from the power plug :fingers-crossed:
If you click on media you can see which apps are contained in media and stressing your battery.

having wifi on, and using my phone for normal usage and its allready 77% in just 1 hour... I hope the battery does improve as what some people say if you have a new device.

In 3 hours i have a loss of 7% while using Whatsapp and Instagram, 3G is activated.
Did you activate auto. Sync (Google, Facebook, Dropbox, Samsung stuff), Gestures, AirView and so on permanently? If so, please switch them off, this will help for a longer battery runtime (only if you dont need them all the time).
How a about the display brightness? automatic oder manual setting?

#offtopic What is that font & needed to root to change it?
#ontopic The time will not reset after you plug it in for a short time.

[Q] Problem with process "Multimedia" in Battery - Kitkat 4.4.2

Hello everybody,
I've looked everywhere on the web for an explanation of what has been happening since long time ... but I have not found anything.
Why I find into processes that "suck up" battery always "Multimedia" on top level?
I do not understand what could depend on .... moreover the percentage increases more and more during the days.

In the second picture there are 3 packages inside. I exclude the first two because I'm not downloading anything but I think it may depend on "Archivio multimediale".

I have a 32 GB MicroSD with stored music, videos and photos (many) but I thought that once phone start and it runs "multimedia scan" in background should no longer affect the battery consumption after it will be finished.
Please give me an explanation.
Thank you!

I woke up this morning to the same exact problem.
My phone went from fully charged down to 15% while I was sleeping in a little extra. 3 hours and it was dead.
Since then I have installed a few items. Particularly the Apollo app that CM makes you use.
The multi media crap has so far stopped.

Hi, I don't know the App to which you refer. Could you explain me better?
Thank you

battery is draining twice faster

Hey everyone,
my Note 4's battery (SM-N910F) is draining really fast. I bought 3 new batteries (1 samsung from their site and 2 rav power) and my battery still only holds for like 3 to 4 hours (instead of the whole day as before).
Can you help me figure out a fix?
Thanks !
Android 6.0.1 is running.
Version number MMB29M.N010FFXXU1DQL2.
Baseband N910FXXS1DQA1

3 -4 hours when using it? That is great. However, if standby is affected then you need to see what is running in the background and affecting the battery. Use BetterBatteryStats and or Gsm Battery monitor

no, 3-4 hours when almost not using it ! Before, the battery was lasting all my work day. Now at lunch, it's done.
I installed Gsm battery monitor, here's what I get:

Do a search on android system battery drain and try some of the fixes. Something is running causing the drain. Google or other backup or something constantly syncing etc.

Finally, I did a full factory reset and now the battery is back to normal!

I am facing the same issue, people everywhere say they get 8-10 hours of sot and I am blown, the maximum I get is 6 hours that too on wifi.
For some reason my the highest drain is by whatsapp.

I'm suffering the same with WhatsApp.

Just disable all notifications of whatsapp, both on OS and on the app

Thanks you very much. Now WhatsApp consumption is back to normal.

It's funny when people judge vendor for something that is not but the issue can be junk apps like WhatsApp, I don't use that Trojan whole but anyways not the point, you should understand that you have to control the work of the apps on your device if you have them a lot, in my case I have 100 apps something and they all configured to my needs and I charge my phone once a day, that includes using it as a work tool, watch media, internet surfing, even play games sometimes, basically all they long active and no issues. If it were a global issue that would affect all of the phones but not random. Just think about it.
