Android system murdering battery - Galaxy S III Q&A, (US Carriers)

I'm running kyan 1.15f currently, no overclocking scripts or anything of the sort, but android system is eating 59% of my battery ! After just 2 hours of almost no use, I'm down to 79 % battery :/

Battery Usage - Android OS

I upgraded to Wolf's CM6 v61 and ive noticed a decrease in battery life. Checked the battery usage and the Android OS is using 80%. Anyone know what the Android OS consists of? (bluetooth, wifi, music apps.... ect..???)
Try to wipe battery stats in xrecovery. I'm using the same custom ROM and I'm pretty satisfied with the battery life. Do not use any task killers. You don't need them.

My battery is draining fast?

Hey guys for some reason my battery is being hammered, I've got trillian running cus I like to be signed in all times but I'm using battery saver mode and push to email
I have launcher pro widgets on half hour refresh I've amended that to 1hr and plume every half hour.
Screen is on automatic and im using gmail for email
At work I had 98% didn't use it % (in my pocket) 2 hours later I'm on 69%?
Is it trillian hammering me? I used to love being signed in all the time on blackberry so would like a similar solution
Thanks

check the battery saving mode under the settings on trillian.
I think there were some apps that were running. You can go tothe navigation: setting/application/battery use to see them. The another way, you try factory data to clean everything which you installed.
In the other hand, new battery is unstable. It needs about 2 weeks
Good luck

Look at your battery stats.. Sounds like something is keeping the phone awake.
As a general rule the phone should only very rarely be "awake" when the screen is off.. If it's on alot then start trying to troubleshoot the various apps.. Although trillian is definitely where i would start.
Yeah id say it be trillian, its a battery drainer program as its uses constant internet connection
I'm still calibrating my battery (it's been on 0% for half an hour and it's still hanging on for dear life with the screen on constantly!) but I have trillion so I'll check it out on next charge

Try this:
Fully charge your phone, switch it off. Check after 2-3 hrs, and see if the battery level has dropped. If yes, then, its the problem with your battery.
IF not, some app is draining through a ditch.
Install GSAM battery monitor, and use its app usage.
One more thing, screen calibration is also missing in sony. So how to calibrate screen?

Dolphin Browser = 9%? As much as a game?
That's quite high if you ask me. I use Chrome and it never gets more than 3~4% of battery usage.
I'm not on a P but on a S, but the usage figures proportionally should be comparable.
I check with gsam, screen and kernel is eating my battery. My screen brightness is at 0%. Dnt knw why.
I attached the screen shot.

Use your phone normally, and when it's 15% attach the graph alone, from your phone (not gsam 's).
Screen usually takes around 50%,and it's normal.

Stock sms using a lot of cpu

I've been trying to figure out why I'm having such bad battery life lately. I noticed that the stock sms app kept the CPU awake for over two hours, and I don't see why. The smsdispatcher wakelock in BBS shows 10 minutes. I'm using JellyBam 5.1.0 and Siyah 7.6 by AJ.

[Q] Kernel (Android OS) sucking my battery !! Can Anyone help ??

I have GSam battery monitor installed on my Note 3 (SM-900) running stock JB 4.3 (MK1) ....
Since a last few days I have witnessed battery drain on my phone without any apparent reason....I charge my phone to 100% at night (wifi & 3G data is off at night) & when I wake up after about 8 to 9 hours of sleep I find that the battery is down to 85% !!! Strange isn't it ...
GSam battery monitor says that nearly 67% of battery is used by "App Usage" , on clicking App Usage for bifurcation of battery usage I find that nearly 50% of my battery is used up by "Kernel (Android OS)"......How to control this , any help will be appreciated dear forum friends !!
Please help me to solve this....

No...
Do you have Google Now turned on? If so try turning off location reporting in Google maps and see if it helps, it's made a huge difference on mine.
Turning the location off helps. The GPS kills the battery.
