Huge battery drain. Really need help

Hello everyone.
I have a very serious problem with battery drain on my SGS3. Every rom I use, every kenel I use, even with stock firmware, I have 16% or sometimes bigger drain in 8 hours at night when I'm sleeping. It was not like that before I rooted my phone. I've tried like 4 roms, ICS, JB, even stock, but the same thing is happening. Please give me some advices. I've ran BetterBatteryStats and it shows that l2_hsic and multipdp is making big drain, also google maps and facebook. Should I try freezing these apps? Usually the drain happens when I reboot my phone after a single charge with AC or USB cable. If I just disconnect my phone from charging after charge, there's no any drain, it's like 1% drained per 5 hours whatever I do, but if I reboot my device after charge, it drains immidiately. Please help!

probably battery gone I had same problem with my SII

did you try wiping your battery stats and re-training it?

Battery issue after 4.1.2 update

Recently I've updated my Note through OTA to 4.1.2.
I've spot that after update the Note is just draining the battery.
I could read about 10 hours on it before, and now it is only about 6 !!!!!
I even do not mention gaming, which is draining the battery in 2.5-3h from 100% to about 5%. I could play approx. 5-6 hours before.
It's ridicules.
Did any of you spot the same thing?
I haven't installed any additional apps after update that may "help" to discharge the battery.
The values above are based on Screen usage time in Battery menu.
Any suggestions?

After the update, I'm facing recharging issues. The tab is taking twice the time of what it used too to recharge to 100%.

i haven't spot any issues with charging.
.

Same here.Used to get 10 hours of screen on time,now i am lucky if i get 8 hours!

Same here...
Some tips :
Kill all apps, switch to offline/airplane, and power saving mode when charging..
Still not working?
Try reboot your device once or twice if necessary..
And your device will charge normally
Work on my gnote...
I hope it will work for you too
Correct me if i'm wrong

Im using juice defender with good results, I lost a pretty noticeable amount of battery time after 4.1.2, too.

Maybe a problem with the battery stats?
Try to drain the battery empty and full charge afterwards.

It will damage the lithium battery when you drain it till empty

I think it is Wi-Fi that drains the battery !!!!
Usually I was leaving the tablet with wi-fi on all the time. After 4.1.2 update it takes approx 2% of battery per hour !!!!!!!!!! when you do not use the tablet but wi-fi is on, so after night in the drawer you had approx 10-15% drained.
When I turned the wi-fi off and left it overnight i haven't loose even a 1% during the night !!!!!
I have to try to work on it as usual but with wi-fi turned off, it will be difficult though as usually i play on-line or browsing the net
I think they f#^%*d something in 4.1.2 update with wi-fi energy consumption. hope they will repair it in next update.

I mean, just let the device turn off by itself, and after that, charge 100%.

Yeah, I had this problem after I updated too. It was also laggy. I did a factory erase and now it works better. I think it is still draining more than before, but not as bad as after I updated. I think a good rule of thumb is to wipe everything after an update and start all over. You could also try wiping and flashing the rom for a fresh install.

I suggest you to change your rom to germany stock 4.1.2...
It will solve your charging problem

Moto G battery drain.

Since I've gotten my Moto G is December, I've never had any problems with it at all.
However, today I left home for school, leaving my battery on 52%. I turned off WiFi so that during the day the battery won't go down too much.
However when I came home, my phone was off, as apparently, it had drained all the way from 52% - 0% in a matter of hours while on standby.
I started to charge it at around 3:30 pm.

Normal for the G. A ton of users have had it happen and their are at least a couple of other threads here about this behavior. There is no known solution as far as I can tell.

does anybody notice that when moto g is 100% & shows charged on the lock screen but if you were to go to native battery stats page you will still see 100% - Charging (AC) instead of 100% - Full?
mine shows 100% - Charging (AC) while on lock screen it says Charged
my N7 2012 shows 100% - Full
any ideas?
thanks

Got the same issue mate! Are you running stock KK aswell? Back when I had JB it'd charge fine to a true 100%, it simply doesn't anymore. Can also notice that problem when reviewing the charge through DU Battery Saver, for instance - it doesn't load the slow charge.
Pretty much experiencing a sudden drain from 100 to 98% in less then 10 minutes.

Do you habe Skype installed? That's a huge battery drainer. Removing it pretty much revived my battery.

Me? No I don't, actually performed a factory reset and wiped cache - the battery ain't calibrated to fully charge to the true 100% yet I guess but the drain is a lot better. As of right now I am on 1d 23h with 3h SOT, about 93% deep sleep and 49% battery left.

If you want to use Skype use version 2.8

So everyone happy that a factory reset and error cache fixes the slow battery drain ?

Turned off mobile data, my Z5c still drains a decent amount of battery overnight

http://imgur.com/X9PYY3Y
I took a screenshot of the drain. It was at 91% when I set it off and put it down for the night. When I woke up from my sleep around 7 hours later, it was at 86%. With mobile data I've been getting much more drain than that, like around 12%. I thought turning off mobile data would solve it, but something still seems to be draining it. What else could be the problem?

I have the same situation on MM, 1% drop per hour minimum. tried turn off data, set only HDSPA, currently installed wakelock detector and greenify i will keep monitoring.
I dont have any batt drops in LP, almost always 1-2% per night.
I tried flash stock .163 and now .185 for UE1 and for germany (im from poland) so roms are for my region. Clean install, dirty install, LB and UB, now rooted, the same situation.
For me battery life on MM sucks :crying:

MM battery was okay for me for a bit it seemed, but then the battery drain seemed to jump up a bit. On LP I was bit hard by the "mobile radio active" bug, and it's still getting me on LP, even back on my Z3c, ugh, it's really frustrating. Mobile radio still shows up for me a lot in MM too, I don't know, that part seems like a google/google play services problem, but this other battery draining that's happening, I'm not too sure, and looking at battery system stats, or using another app such as gsam battery monitor, I haven't been able to deduce anything, but if you see anything, please update us.

Here is mine ss, if You can help
I unplug charger at 00:19 with 99% battery, in morning aroun 5AM i have 93%

I don't have any screenshots but I've noticed that in the last couple of weeks (running stock MM), my battery is draining much quicker than expected. I use Tasker to control wifi / sync / other stuff but don't have it running like the old Ultra Stamina but my battery will now drain in 12 hours of normal use (not playing games, watching movies). Looking at GSam battery monitor, the phone radio is draining quite a bit and at no point has the phone entered deep sleep.
Annoying as I used to easily get 36 hours between charges.

since i upgraded to Android 6.0 I lose 1% per minute when the screen is on and I go from 100% to 0% in approx. 8 hours, compared to 1 day+ before.

Same for me :c since the update got less than 3 hour SOT , doze does not help me as i have my phone on my hands or pocket most of the time, it never activates
and i saw the 1% bat drain per minute or so while im on chrome ( i just use crhome, nor videos nor games, no facebook apps installed)

Even with doze, it doesn't work that well, cuz my battery still drained turning off network. Although, last night, I turned on airplane mode, and it drained less, only 3%, but I still feel like there's something going on in the background that makes it drain so dang much.

I almost haven't used my phone since full charge and see: Screen usage is very high, as soon as I turn on, it drops by 1% per minute. I haven't changed anything since MM update and before that I could (heavy) use my phone for 1day+.
I bought this phone cause I couldn't use my LG G2 for a full day anymore, and now I can't even use this new one for half day....

I fixed my battery extremely fast draining by uninstalling Facebook Messenger, now I'm back to 1 day and half estimated use. What happened with this app ? It wasn't battery consuming with Lollipop.

phone idle

Mine seems to be topping the list of battery drain

Further update ,is this normal phone idle useage

From the day one when I bought this phone, I had Battery drain and I've been using all tips and trick. mostly tweaking setting and surprisingly yesterday night I had 0% battery drain with turning off Wifi.

You have no cell signal?

Had cell signal all day

Don't get me wrong ,battery life is great so far today on 43% and had 3hrs 20 mins SOT,just strange to see phone idle at the top of the list

I'm having the same issue. Idle Phone drain definitely goes away when I turn on airplane mode but I haven't tried turning off WiFi yet. I transferred all of my settings and apps from a Pixel 2 XL that had no issues with power consumption.

If I had to take a guess, some app is draining your battery.

Dispute this still getting great battery life with 5/6 hrs SOT
Is there any app that can help identify what is causing phone idle to drain the battery
