Think it just needs a couple of battery cycles to even itself out.

I'm getting some decent battery life - about 20% more per day, for my average usage (ending the day around 65%), than stock (rooted). I'm running Omega v7.1.
As suggested, give it a few cycles.

yes, I have,
I found it's because the EMail sync, if I disabled mail sync battery life is better.
I have problem with my android system, it's drain more battery than my screen on.
I just installed BBS, Gsam Battery Monitor, and Watchdog but I can't get the infromation what did android system do with my battery
Anyone can help me ?
Since 4.4.2, leaving my phone overnight would drain 0% battery (or sometimes, very rarely, 1%).
I'm using Greenify (I Greenify everything except WhatsApp and Nova Launcher) and on a typical school day I can end up with between 50%-60% of battery.
The more draining things I disabled include Google's location reporting service and always-on WiFi scanning. Perhaps you may check
Battery life is really bad , not as good as it used to be , certainly not as good as my Stock Note 2 was!!!!!!!... please any suggestions?
Nothing works,tried all the tips around here (except for rooting), before kitkat (on jelly bean mj7) I used to have that annoying android os bug, when I received kitkat, the bug was resolved but got replaced by another unexplaicable drain by "android system" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
" android system " and " media " drain are too Damn high... 2 hard resets didn't even help at all.... And I'm on the gsm only mode with gps off all the time.......
I'm really getting fed up with Samsung and their crap software , this is my third note device and the most buggy one... and it's really getting ridiculous ...
Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
Cheers.
All in necessary bloatware disabled. Sync on. Olways with wifi in home or 3g out. Locations disabled. Amazing battery life .

Gesendet von meinem SM-N9005 mit Tapatalk
mine is at 20 %. screen at 18 % haha . still got 4 hours of on screen time with H+ on all the time , autosync , and semi debloated ( as much as possible without root ). No location or freaky stuff.

Hmm are you on ORO? I'm from bucharest too but let's talk English here
Anyway mine today seems stabilised. Android system is the second one now but still kinda high...
I'm on NC2 now. I have an unbranded phone and i tried all firmwares from sammobile, some with full wipe and still have battery drain. I even began to get rid of some apps but i don't think it is app related. I had exatly the same apps on 4.3 with much better battery life.
Having horrible battery life with my Note 3 after the update. The android system shows up using 50%.... It's been 4 hrs off the charger and I'm already down to 70% battery life. Just horrible.
I have a question for everyone who's suffering from the battery drain in KitKat and who seem to have Android System at the top of the list constantly:
Do you by any chance have a service called gsiff_daemon as a major cause for battery drain? You should be able to check this with Better Battery Stats or Gsam Battery Monitor apps.
I'm just trying to find out something and I could be wrong but it would be good to hear from people who have a draining battery.
hi,
my mom bought a Galaxy Ace 3 like 2 months back and the battery is draining like theres no tomorrow, it doesn't even last a day on standby! There are only 4 apps on the phone. I also checked the battery stats in settings and it shows that "android system" is using well over 70% of the battery!
does anyone know a solution for this issues or has the same problem as me?
thanks,

First : You need to root your phone then install Greenify (+ donation package) to hibernate (close) Unecessary System apps running in background.(i can give you the list if you want ) i tried it and it's awesome...my phone passed from a little bit less than 1 Day to 2~3 Days.
Hi
Try to close running apps in the background. Reduce screen brightness too. This phone is a completely different experience than my other phone as the battery life is not very good. It taught me well about how to save battery by the way. If you are rooted, try to underclock the CPU. Hope this helps.
Go to sleep at 10pm something when my phone battery is around 80-90% then next day woke up in morning 6 am it only left 5%

You may register on xda and discuss this issue in the [i9500][4.4.2] CyanogenMod 11.0 Discussion thread.
Or check alternative CM11 based ROMs, such as [GearCM][i9500][4.4.x] Optimized CyanogenMod 11 for Samsung Galaxy S4 [20141227v2], which claims to have better battery life.
But most of the time, such hugh battery drain is caused by an app ... not the ROM or kernel.
To find the culprit, you can install and use a battery stats app, such as Better Battery Stats (BBS) from Play store.
There is also an app thread for it on xda.
With root access, it can show you detailed information about the battery stats, the wakelocks and alarms, etc.
You can also create a dumpfile, upload it and ask in the app thread, if one of the "experts" can help to analyze it. I am sure tah you will get some helpful advices how to optimize your battery life.
Thread closed. Thank you.
Hello,
I have owned a note 2 and 3 and quite a few Android phones before that. I know how to disable features running in the background to get good battery life out of them. My notes had amazing battery life.
I have applied the same settings to my note sm n915fy and the battery is pretty poor. As soon as I take it off charge it immediately drops to 99% then down to about 70 in 5 hours while I'm asleep. I have brightness to 25% with sync disabled, a jet black background and all Samsung features switched off. Saying that I still seem to get a lot if push notifications in the Background.
I bought this phone from someone and never doe a reset when I got it, I just made a google account up.
I have not rooted yet, I am waiting for more roms to appear before I consider this.
I would appreciate so etc help on this please.
Cheers.
I found 2 issues that were killing my battery: s-health and the unified daemon. I think UD is used to track location for the weather display on the edge screen. Anyway, disabling both of them gave me good battery life. Hope this helps.
Thanks for the reply.
I done a factory restore which seems to have helped a bit. I will try disabling UD to see if it helps more.
Cheers.
how is the battery life now?
are you on kitkat or jellybean?
my battery life became awful since the kitkat upgrade. what I did was to downgrade back to jellybean. now battery life is a little better. because it doesn't drain a lot when idle. but it's unstable and the percentage is not steady. sometimes it drains fast and sometimes not. crazy phone. I never regretted buying it before this power game

What????
You must be in the wrong device section. You have the Note 3 seeing from your XDA signature.
Our Note Edge came default with KitKat 4.4.4
you are right. I just noticed that.

Note edge battery issues
I can say without any hesitation both the note 4 and note 4 edge the battery sucks compared to the note 3, I am not usually a fan of apps that are supposed to help, But try Shutapp it really does help a lot.
Hi XDA forum,
Apologies for my second post here being yet another question. But I've noticed my battery draining quite fast compared to my oppo find X2 Pro. I took this screenshot from battery guru.
Just wondering whether there is a none issue excessive battery using as it's showing around 4% p/hr on standby and 12% p/hr screen on, which seems quite high.
Kind regards,
Alex
