This problem could be could be due to the rom that you are using, although it seems strange for it to be that bad.
One thing you could try is underclocking to save power, it wont make too much difference but it is a start.
A second solution is to simply buy a new battery as your current one may just be old.
there is also the obvious basics: low screen brightness, stopping any unwanted services and try to steer away from live wallpapers
hope this helps.

You should test another rom

Change your ROM brother !

I've tryed a few rom's since I posted this battery must be done in. It fully charges in less than 10 mins and runs out in just over an hour fed up charging my phone lol

yes, its probably best to get a new on then, be careful though a lot of the ones on sale are fake so make sure that you find a real one.
hope you get it sorted

Overheating

Hello
The day before I got my Lg O2X and am now experiencing overheating (I think). The app which I have installed shows 42C while charging the battery is a bit warm.
Can anyone suggest me a good app so that I can confirm it?
And yeah I live in India so temperature is a bit high over here 32C when I posted this.
Update: I just noticed as the battery reached 90% charging it started to cool down at the moment it is at 36.7C at 96% (with no change in placement of the phone).
Ya man..the battery of every device heats up while charging and yes i also live in India and if u use ur phone while recharging it goes upto 42°C..
Try not using while charging..
Cheers

Do note that heat is directly proportionate to the amount of power the phone uses. Generally I find custom roms/kernels to be more power hungry than the standard ones.

Mine overheates only while I'm playing and charging in the meanwhile, or in car, navigating and charging.. It's a lot of battery consumption and totally normal..
Leaked GB 20i (topogigi) has a good battery life, the only thing is a battery drain in data mode, but for instance wifi is going really well!

Most people say it makes their battery cycle longer and battery rarely goes to 40C!

Battery drain after restarting note on 4.0.4

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.

Help me with my battery...

It seems stock batteries generally have roughly a ten month life which sucks, but they are very cheap.

he he.. may be now we need phones running on fusion cells. atleast they will last longer...if samsung choose not to screw the up too.
I just got a new sun global 3000mAh note battery. Let me test 1 week then tell you how is it compared with stock battery.

cool,
Id still prefer coldfusion or non emmision fuelcells (dont want h20 building up in my pocket. lol. it would be lowtemp slow cooker, causing embarising "fake fap" spots, imagine all the std misdiagnoses)
It's really a pity that the batteries just last 9-10 months. Mine seemed perfectly OK but then the note wouldn't get very far past the samsung logo, messed up the /system and /data partitions. Just had a replacement genuine battery, but will be very pissed if in october it will once again be broken. Maybe it has something to do with charging with more than 1A chargers? In my car I use a 2A charger, at home it is the 1A charger that came with the phone.

I personally have always used stock charger until i had to move in with a friend and started using his non standard, i noticed a big difference in full charge times, went back to stock immediately.
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
it is why they advise in manual to use original chargers only.
It could also be your not adopting battery best practices from manual. Maybe to many charge/recharge cycles?
You can also be unlucky.
Same problem here .. battery lasts in 12h
Maybe it's a JB leak issue I don't know

come payday im gonna buy an extended one, but one that wont need an adapted back case.

Battery drain after boot?

Ive tried to search the forum but cant find an answer. If there is. I appologize but please lead me there.. thanks
Issue is. Everytime or most of the time after restarting my phone my battery will go down dramatically like from 70% down to 40%? But after like 30 mins it will go back up. Any idea how to fix this?

This is a common problem with the not, the only solution is to buy a new battery (unless the phone isn't older than 9 months).
