I was getting for work this morning and my battery started at like 93%, and when I got to work, I noticed it was at 21%. What could have happened? I'm using my OEM battery and charger. I didn't do anything differently with it today than normal.

Seems like one of the app is trying to use wifi with GPS or possible it failed to switch to 4g. I would manually disable wifi and GPS, then recharge the phone and see if the issue went away. If it is then the next step is to identify the root cause.
I noticed that your battery levels off. Does it actually die within say 4 hours, or can you go the whole day? I had an issue where mine would level off round 20% and I could go on for a few hours longer.... ended up reflashing my ROM, clearing caches to fix it.

Sounds like mine on another kernel I had. Thing would literally die within hours. Do you have wifi and gps on at all times?

It had Wifi on always, and GPS some of the time.
Doesn't matter much now though; I got a new phone. That was the only time it happened though. Very odd.

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.

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.

sir, all samsung android phone is like that.. the battery is draining so past
I don't know if it is a problem with my battery, or my phone, or even the ROM but whenever my phone is discharging it discharges by 2%. I just changed the battery to an Anker 1900mAh battery (brand new from Amazon). I've been using AlbinoMan887's ROM and I have done everything from discharging the battery and recharging it, wiping it full and even reseating the battery. Does anyone else have this problem? What can I do?

Tbh, I really don't think it's affecting battery life much, if any. I'm reconsidering getting a replacement after using it for a while and seeing what the battery life is like, but that may change.

The option does seem to be missing from the Wallpaper menu. I just set one that I downloaded from the Play Store though and it works fine. Just have to open the app after you download it and set it from there.

Do u have any kind of Bluetooth problems after u reboot the phone. ?
Installed Nougat 7.0 with Odin after download through SAMFIRM. No problem whatsoever encountered yet, everything works flawlessly. Phone seems little faster. After 4 hours of use also battery use seems little better compared to MM.

No, everything's working fine. I didn't fresh install. But I did have some battery issues. Device idle and cell stand by are the main battery drainer.

Maybe you already know, but I wanted to mention in case you didn't. After months of looking into cell standby battery drain, the ONLY way I can minimize it down to basically nothing is to be in airplane mode and using wifi/wifi calling. Sad to see that cell standby drain is still an issue with 7.0 though.
Thanks for the info, I've tried mostly everything but I still couldn't fix the issue.... As of right now I'm on 25% with device idle by being 8% drained about 225 mAh and cell standby being 5% drained 149 mAh.
It might be that I didn't do a fresh install... Since I haven't heard anyone having issues with battery. So I might factory reset in a bit.
