So, I just ran the fix apk uid mismatch from recovery. Before I powered down to go into recovery, I had 24% battery. After rebooting, I have 32%. Strange, huh? And just in the time its taking me to type this is am down to 29% and cruising down relatively quickly.
Make that 28% now.
Regaw mod 2.1 is what I am using.
26% now.

no I haven't. To be totally honest, this battery usually lasts all day with what you can call moderate usage. I haven't calibrated the battery with the system because 99% of the time, it sits on usb charge because my job requires internet and this is the only high speed I get. So, in a way it is constantly at 100% unless I have to leave, I bring the phone with me.
I think I will try what you said with my stock battery. Thank you.
my toes typed this on my heroc
No problem. I read that on another thread.

Im on serendipity 5.10 and I flashed speedmod k13b using odin and k13c using sgs kernel flasher. I notice battery drains 1% every 10 min and charges up at the same rate. This did not happen when I originally flashed the first time (serene 5.10).

6% an hour does not sound to bad for me ^^ but i highly doubt that it takes over 10hours to charge your phone

How are you gets getting such high battery life?
I went back to speedmod k13a cuz it seems to have better battery. From what I read, the kernel needs time to adjust after some flashes so let it charge/drain a couple days and it'll be better. I did that and i seem to have better battery.
Edit: not significant though. I'll test it more.

Is this idle drain?
all depends on your use and rom. I get about 1-2% drain per hour idle using whats in my sig along with juiceDefender to turn off data (cell and wifi) when not in use.
My battery has been sluggish right after updating 4.0.4. Right after restarting my device, i left only 20% of battery instead of 90% before restarting. Im getting sick n tired of samsung. Thers always a problem after software update. Im wondering wether they ever tested their software before releasing it to consumer. LOUSY

Calibrate your battery.
Let it empty untill blackout. Take out battery for 2 min then put it back again, and charge it to full, do not push the on button while charging.
My suggestion is to install and SPYCPU podesiš processor clock so you would not spend the battery more than they need. We also have a large selection governo, naćićeš best balance of performance and battery life.
Thanks jonpaslim! i will try to do that and will update the results

The total of 1 week I was on both OS builds I had these issues that I identified to be the battery:
Facebook
GPSD
and then not going into deep sleep (the phone gets warm)
Badass Battery (now another name, but you can still search Badass battery) and BBS (Better Battery Stats) helped me.
Thanks zkye.
So far i hv been using pretty alot of apps. Been using carat,netqin and cpu spy. Well the batt is still i would say average.. Im wondering how to read this thing on cpu spy. Especially the deep sleep graph. Is it sufficient? Or am i doing the wrong thing or what?

You can check version in settings, then about phone in bottom Guess you are on stock. Be carefull wiping, factory resetting and deleting large files as kernel can trigger a bug in emmc chip, corrupting partitions.
good you started analysing root causes. Always best case.
now if you dont care for warrantee you can follow directions from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29139461 to get back to starting point of install. Or to install the awesome speedmod kernel.
Alteratively you can add apps one by one and together with battery usage analysed you can fin culprits. With tools like betterbatterystats, cpu spy and badassbattery monitor

did you try re-calibrating your battery?
Hi xfox,
Done with calibrating as in let it empty, take out the batt for a while then turn it on again. It seems okay for now. Is there any other way instead? Im sorry for asking this stupid question again and again. And thank to all of ya for replying my so called newby question. Lol.

Thanks baz,
How i wish i could use those speedmod kernel and so on. Well im quite afraid to root it cuz im not too sure that im gonna use this phone for a long time. As the phone value will decrease if i void the warranty. But thx for replying my post tho. As for now im still monitoring my batt behaviour.

Galaxy Note problem
When I got my Galaxy Note, the battery used to last for 10 hrs on GB. After upgrading to ICS, that time dropped to 8 hrs. And after ICS updates, it went down to less than 4 hrs since it was discharging much fatser than charging, and it was the same whether I used the original power charger or direct USB cable.
The original charger is an adapter + USB cable.
Everything went fine when i changed the USB and used the one originally used to charge the Sony 3D glasses.
Now it's charging normally and the discharge rate is around 8% /hr with WIFI and mobile data ON.
Hope it will work for you.
Damn it all. I have the infamous, random, crazy battery drain that ICS has plagued android users with. After googling i've found no permanent solutions. I'm drawing anywhere between 500mah to 2100mah without doing anything. g'ah!
Did you turn off all notifications? Did you check to see if GPS and other battery-draining services are off? My battery seems fine, and I'm on my phone all day!

Shut your phone down and pull the battery for at least 10 seconds. Then put the battery back in a start it back up.

I know. thanks, but it didn't work for me. I tried numerous "fixes", but all are temporary fixes. Theres a bug in the ICS kernel that hasn't been fixed. I, after trying numerous methods, just left it alone for a while. Surprisingly it seems to have gone away on its own. Not sure if its something I did or not, but so far so good.

i'm using the mugen 5400mah extended battery.i've optimized my phone in terms of power usage and i've been quite pleased with it until i posted this. It a known bug in the ics kernel. No one knows where it stems from or how its permanently fixed, but its random. My phone, just sitting, started drawing 500mah to 2100mah out of no where. I only noticed when i looked at my phone just to check the time and saw my battery widget showing some crazy numbers. So yeah....

yeah. I think its something with xposed, because when I disable it, The reboots stops and phone works fine.
and sometimes when I add a new module and restart The phone, sometimes The phone freezes in lock screen for about 5 sec then restart again. this occurs at least 3 times before The phone starts normally, and with xposed disabled this never ocurred.

Had the same problem when i updated my phone to 6.0. The problem was solved by calibrating the battery. Drain down the battery until phone switches off and then charge it to 100% while it is off overnight. At first i thought it was a myth. But really it worked. Now i can get around 24 hours + with around 3 - 3.5 hours sot from that old supposedly dying battery. Using Stock 6.0 rooted Moto X 2014.

Hello everyone.
That problem happens to me since I bought this phone, around February 2015. It wasn't so stressing, because the phone would drop from 15% to 1% and shutdown. But, it started to become even worse, as recently on a trip it shutted down with 50%. Searching for the problem I've seen that many people have this problem, some saying it's because the battery creates something inside, which I forgot the name, and it damage the cells. So recently I bought a new battery and replaced it, and then it worked fine, I could go to 1% without drops, until yesterday. It started happening again, dropped from 20% to 1%, and today again, from 18% I guess...
Now I don't know what to do, I don't know if something is damaging the battery again, hardware or software-side, or if it's the software with false percentage, or some part of the hardware, besides the battery, which is leading to some problem. I don't know, that's frustrating. Please, if someone know what's happening, share with us.
Just curious, how often you run the battery dead? A lot of people seem to mistakenly think it's good to run it low all the time which actually damages the battery over time. Some people may get lucky but I've seen lots of batteries fail way before their time that were run dead often.

That happens everyday, sometimes at 20%, sometimes 15%, sometimes even lower, like 8%. I know sometimes it's normal at like 5%, but it can't be normal at 20%, or even worse, like it was happening before, at 50%. My fear is that it starts to get worse again. I just can't accept the fact that a lot of people have this problem, I mean A LOT, and nobody finds a way to solve it, all we can find is "temporary" solutions.
I mean before that started to happen, did you purposefully run it empty all the time? Because that will shorten the lifespan of the battery. I try to charge mine before it gets down to 40% every day, but I occasionally run it down lower just to see what my screen on time on a full charge is. The other day I knew it was going to be good so I ran it down to 9% and got over 7 hours screen on time, so i know it's still working properly at least.
At least the battery is pretty easy to replace in this phone if needed. I had it apart to replace the LCD as I bought it with a shattered screen.
My ex gf went through 2 iPhone 4s, each lasted less than a year...that would randomly shut off at 50% battery or so, then show a dead battery. Hers was usually almost dead by the time it was plugged in which I'm sure contributed to the problem.

Nope, I don't do that, don't like it.
Even if I did what your ex gf did, it can't be normal to occur this just because you started charging with a low battery. Ok, doing that can damage the battery, but so fast like it happened to me? And so severe, like shutting with 30% left? I can't believe this is normal.
It can cause that, but normally not until the battery is about a year old. At least in the case of her iPhone 4s and the replacement did as well. Whereas a battery that's taken care, not run low all the time or left on charger all the time can last over 3 years.
