It seems like my battery is draining very quickly. Android is the highest on my battery list. I don't have anything weird installed or syncing and my screen is set to 50% brightness. Any ideas?

If you have root access you can install Better Battery Stats (Free here: http://goo.gl/EjdB8) and choose partial wakelocks since unplugged. That will tell you what's keeping your phone from deep sleep.
Nothing is standing out in partial wake locks. Every bar is pretty much empty. And that app isn't free anymore according to that post.

Maybe it's not bad. I'm not one to complain about the battery life, but it just seemed like it was tanking fast. Like percentage points per minute.

Op, are you rooted? I noticed my battery goes a little quicker since I rooted and flashed cm10. I also noticed you are on 3g, did you disable 4g, is 4G available in your area? Maybe the phone constantly searching for 4G is draining. Not sure how that would show up in battery usage stats though.

Yes I am rooted. I noticed the battery draining faster after I flashed Google Wallet. I am stock rooted though. I turn off NFC when I don't need it, and the app doesn't sync often.
I'm not in a 4G area, but that has never drained my battery before. I can't imagine Wallet would be draining my battery..
I should also note that my brightness is set to full at all times. What's of interest to me is the fact that it isn't draining so much when the screen is on, it's when the screen is off is when it drains the most it seems. I'll leave the phone off for at least 20 minutes and when I turn it back on it'll have lost a few points.
Can't seem to figure it out. Like I said, it seems like I started noticing the battery draining quicker after I installed Google Wallet.

It's well known I like to be a battery whore, my previous record was a little over 48 hours on a full charge with my Infuse. Today I beat my old record by about....20 hrs!
All notifications off except Gmail. 3g data turned off for about 80% of the time. Wifi on but set to turn off when phone sleeps. I did use the phone, text, talk, surf, etc. Probably would be considered light usage though.

I never use notifications, never will. This is my normal usage pattern. As I said in the OP, I do use the phone.
Get rooted and remove blot wear
Best way in some sense to get great battery life is get rooted, use Excellent Roms that removes all bloatware and find any apps that are continually running in background and remove them. (Tip) Get titanium backup and backup your apps then remove them but if you need later then reinstall them for future use. Just a few things to mention, so much more to add to save battery. I suggest you just use your phone and try and save in other ways that will extend you daily use.
How much screen on time? That's generally the best measure of battery life, because if your screen isn't on, you're not really using your phone. And a percent usage tells nothing.
My infuse is currently going on 12 days, 14 hours, 16 minutes, 7 seconds since last unplugged with 1 hour 28 minutes of screen on time. That being said, it's because I use it purely as a backup alarm clock without a sim card now that I have my Note, haha. And no, I'm not going to go to the hassle of rooting, downloading a screenshot app, then waiting another 12-14 days to prove it. Just goes to show that battery life doesn't mean much without usage.
Was it with a stock battery

Guys earlier I posted an unboxing video in another thread. That video is right here.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BryoOlaWQaU&feature=plcp
Then I spent the next 4 or 5 hours trying to get the freaking thing activated. That finally happened, but I haven't had much time with the phone. Anyways, here's a quick video showing the boot up, and some speed tests on 4G LTE. This phone is beast! (it may be sideways for a bit but I've rotated it to the right in Youtube, sometimes it just takes a while)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wovT50uGfLw&feature=plcp
Feel free to ask questions, I can try to post more videos over the next couple days but my schedule is literally booked for the next 2 days so I'll do what I can.
Good job

It's looking like the Verizon version is going to have sweet sweet battery life!
The phone starts at about 50% and I still have stellar life out of that! I had rebooted it and connected it via usb to try and get adb shell. Otherwise it would show nearly 20hrs of battery at this point!

Have they fixed that 34ma battery drain issue yet? Officially? I'm a nexus dude but seriously considering returning it and getting in on one of these s3's. Just switched to Verizon and I love, love, love the network. Haven't been with vzw since '07.
I'd also like to know if there is still the bleeding/weeping/leakage of the back lights on the white version? Like there was on the white galaxy s 2.
Thanks.

I'm not aware of this battery drain issue you speak of. If it exists on my phone, I can obviously obviously with it. The cell standby numbers are way too high, especially considering I was on full LTE coverage all night. My epic4g had a similar issue and it was fixed via software fairly quickly.
Mine is blue so I can't comment on your other question. Yes, the Verizon network is AWESOME!

"The cell standby" that is the Battery drain issue he is referencing, it is not really a "real" drain issue, more a reporting issue.
Even with the drain issue that battery life is awesome. Thank you for posting your initial thoughts and battery stats.
After I get fully charged up again today I will leave it off any charge and post the full drain stats.

Also, some of the forums suggest you recalibrate your battery when you flash a new rom... It wipes the battery stats and starts from ground zero. The app is in the play store Battery Calibration. Just charge to 100% and run this app it will do the rest. Don't think that is your problem, but it will give you accurate stats about your battery...
Here is the thread for the Instigator Kernel. If you flash you phone on a nightly basis, you will have to reflash this each time you update on a nightly...
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721235
Another good program to run is CPU spy like I said. It will show you what your CPU's are spending all their time on. Once you get the new kernel flashed, just run that program. You should see more time being spent at the 192 Mhz range or the deep sleep when the phone is on stand-by...
Good luck with it!
That is a little fast, but he did say he's using the device non-stop for 3 hrs on 4g. 4g uses a lot of battery, and 3 hrs of "non-stop" 4g usage doesn't seem that unreasonable. The question is, what does "non-stop" mean to him? Screen on with 4g data being transferred for 3+ hrs strait sounds like it would kill a battery to me!

I agree it is fast. I am not sure if he is on LTE or standard 4G... LTE would drain it if he is in a bad location... There are a lot of factors.... I am sure his huge screen being on has a lot to do with it. Brightness level??? Signal Strength??? ETC...
CM9 is known to be a little bit of a battery hog in the wrong situations... That's why I suggest a kernel that is aimed at GOOD battery life...
But do whatcha want...
Where I am I don't get real good service on Cm9 it says 4G and sometimes it's just H with 1 to 2 signal bars also my display brightness is set to automatic
I downloaded and flashed the instigator + badass I will see if that helps also got the battery calibration will charge and reset it
Also I read about nexus extended battery so I ordered one of those
thanks you all for the help

So I charged my phone last night, went to bed at 99% n woke up to it at like 76%. Sync was turned off as usual, so no idea what would cause it to wake constantly like that. I remember using spare parts on my OG there was a option to see what apps were causing wake. I'm still stock right now, not even rooted. What's the consensus for background processes in settings-> development? Standard limit or limit to 1 or 2 processes? Any help is greatly appreciated.
Little side note, what's the preference on using the power saving option?

I do not use power save and my phone will only lose about 8-10 percent at most. I'm all stock as well so I can't tell you why..... but if you are setting your phone in an area at night that gives you low signal it will eat your battery fast.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app
yeah signal strength and background data can hurt battery a lot, even when sync is turned off a lot of apps will still update automatically, for example weather, news, and the like. The easiest way to check that is to disable mobile data next time you leave it overnight, if it still has high drain then you have an app putting it in a wake lock which you have to use another app to find the culprit.

I stay connected to WiFi the entire time that I'm at home. Probably the only times I use it. Then I'll turn it off walking to my car. That's one of the reasons I use it, so I know I have a steady signal and not connected to data so that a fluctuating signal would cause overnight battery drain.

Just so you know even with mobile data turned off your phone is still connected to the network for phone calls. So if you are in a bad signal area it can still cause serious battery drain.

Hi, so ever since ICS, or at least SCv7 (not sure if it did it stock, I switched right away), my screen has bee completely killing my battery
I still get perfectly fine life with the screen off, but it just drops right down with it on even not doing anything to heavy. Definitely a problem not normal.
Anyone have any ideas? Is this happening to anyone else?

What are your screen settings at (levels, auto on/off, etc)? Screen is by far the biggest drain on battery. Check my Battery Guide, last Page for an app mentioned to lower brightness more than the stock settings will allow for- maybe that would help in certain instances. I haven't tried it myself, but will be doing so over the weekend, and if beneficial I will update the OP with it.
My SGS3 is the same as my A2 being that the screen gobbled up battery like crazy. So, I suppose you're not alone, at least with what I've experienced.
Not sure if any of this is helpful, but thought I'd share my thoughts...

I keep it on auto or low all the time. this is definitely a real problem, because it was nowhere near as bad on GB. now I know they fixed the cell standby issue, but I can literally see the battery go right on down when I turn it on. 3-4 hours on would kill it.
Maybe try with auto off for a while, see if you notice any difference.

Looking at your battery's discharge rate graph, looks pretty normal. There's no drastic drops in battery, it's fairly linear in discharge, and even if the screen is using most of that. However, there could be other culprits. What about sync, or haptic, or any of the other things I outlined in my guide? WiFi is off, from what I saw, but might not just be the screen. Have you tried editing build prop for "deeper" deep sleep or edits to other things? I'm going to update my OP with a few more things I thought of for improving overall battery life this weekend. Maybe some of the new ones will help...

This may help to see the real problem of the fast battery drain you said, also you can install the app rootDim from the playstore to custom your screen brightness.
I hope this helps.
