I have the international version and the battery drain in standby is a big problem. I lose about 1% every 5-10 minutes. I'm connected to a Wi-Fi network. I've been using GSam Battery Monitor to locate the problem. I saw Facebook woke up my phone for about 500 times and I deleted it. However, I'm still experiencing this issue. In 5 hours Google services woke up my phone 47 times (in included packages it says: Google Contacts Sync; Network Location) and Maps woke it up for about 20 times.
I'm rooted and I'm running stock (LH1). No custom kernels or modems. What's the problem?
EDIT: Also, the drain is happening only when I'm connected to a Wi-Fi network (I noticed it's much slower while I'm on mobile data)

I've been using BBS for quite some time actually, but I was unable to detect the problem. I've also been using GSam Battery. But what I've noticed is that this drain happens when I'm connected to a Wi-Fi network or at least it's bigger then.

I've turned it off and as far as I've seen it didn't fix the issue. However, I will leave my phone for a couple of hours tomorrow to see again. There are apps for which I have to have it turned on (Foursquare, Maps etc.) so that's a bummer.
Even I am having the same problem of battery drain. Will it get fixed if the change the battery considering I have two 2 Galaxy S3 with the same problem of battery drain.?
Also I want to root my phones, but is there a way to root the phone without the warranty being void?
I've been experiencing some minor battery drain issues and what I found is that if I log out of all the apps I'm logged in to, my battery drain is significantly better. Not a perfect solution but I'm slowly figuring out which one is causing issues.

I've been try to extend the life of my battery, and one of the things I have done is set the SETTINGS/WIFI/ADVANCED "keep WIFI on during sleep" to "never".
I make this change, but most times when I go back into the settings later on, it's changed back to "Always"
Anybody offer a clue as to why this might be happening?

no idea mate it shouldn't do as i have mine set to never and it stays like that, have you been flashing ROM's or anything like that maybe that could explain it!
No, not really.
The only thing I've done is rooted it. Apart from that, It's still got stock Samsung Rom on it.
Just checked again, and even tried setting it to "only when plugged in, but after 15 mins or so, it's back to "always" again.

For anyone else who might come across the same issue.
After doing a factory reset, and putting apps back on one at a time, I found out it was DoubleTwist Airsync, that was changing the "WIFI sleep" option.
Apparently, the developer knows this, but wants it to work that way.
So it's now gone for me
But you won't lose too much battery on an 7 hr sleep with the always on setting.
I go to sleep with my S3 on 98% and wake up with 92-94% battery left even with received messages from 3 email accounts and other notifications.

I keep mine on always. I lose 3% during an 8hr sleep and it'll automatically connect to my carrier data when my network is not in range. Sure beats turning it off and on a handful times a day.
Weird is that WiFi is active in either option you shoose during sleep. Even if you choose NEVER, open your battery use stats and you'll see that WiFi was active all the time during sleep. I cannot understand why is this issue so underrated here on XDA forums. Or is it some kind of misinterpreting from my side???

Yup afaik, choosing never will produce a wakelock to check the phone state and keeping it on will cause it to constantly scan even if connected to a network. Both choices will eat up battery.
I see many threads suggesting to just manually turn it off, preventing scanning, wakelocks and syncing all together.

Hi,
I have found that my battery which currently is still the standard one drains very fast and my phone is getting very warm.
However I have noticed that once my battery hits 50% it cools down and does not deplete so quickly.
I do have a programme that is left running which is a VOIP / SIP client I use CSipSimple.
Is there something that I could try to get the phone to last longer on the battery?

1. Post your ROM details. Goto Settings - About, post everything, preferably a screenshot.
2. Post screenshot of your battery info
3. Download better battery stats (paid in playstore, free on XDA), and check what's causing the problem.
4. Download cpuspy, run it for some time and check your cpu usage

Hi,
Ok I have attached a few screen shots as asked
I have downloaded CPU SPY and will leave this to gather some info and I have also downloaded BATTERY SPY and will do the same.
Do you have a link to better battery stats?
I have also noticed that when I leave my phone on when charging it gets very very hot and sometimes does not full charge after a 9 hr charging window.
However if I switch the phone off it stays cool and is fully charged.
First try to remove your external sd card and check if problem has been solved. Sometimes if there are corrupted media files or there is huge amount of such data, media scanner gone crazy and bootloops itself when trying to index them all.
You could use some kind of apps to disable media scanner (old Nitrality or something newer like Rescan Media ROOT) or remove your movies, music and pictures temporary from phone. After that wipe data of media storage and gallery from settings-applications menu and reboot your phone.
Of course do not overclock your phone. You could also try to set it in battery saving (eco) mode when charging. Disable all wireless communication (mobile data, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS) and turn Airplane mode on.
Sometimes phone is getting hot while playing games when WiFi or mobile data are enabled. This could be kernel related issue (if custom) or inproper to your baseband Radio Interface Layer (RIL) driver installed. You can fix it by installing Getril from playstore and downloading ril corresponding to actually used baseband.
Of course it could be also some crapware on your phone installed. Or configuration issues (scheduled tasks, etc.) I don't know what kind of apps you have got on your device and how you using them. If your problem persist than try to factory reset your phone to be sure that this is not some kind of app issue.

Thought you would say that I have tried that but it still tells me the RIL and Baseline do not match after I have installed it.
In this case you could try to flash LPA modem (for this one you have ril installed). Or flash any other modem you like and than change your ril.
Reboot after changing to be sure it's properly loaded.

Hi everyone ! I'm on Omega v35 (Samsung) Rom and 3.0.36-Perseus-alpha29 Kernel. And I have these connected accounts: Dropbox, Facebook, Google, Microsoft Exchange and WhatsApp.
When WiFi is on I loose about 2.2% per hour. (Google Now is disabled, GPS off, Data off, CPU almost all time in Deep Sleep)
When I turned off WiFi I've been loosing 0.8% per hour (other settings remained same).
So my question is, is this normal battery drain ?
In BBS I've noticed that my most active Wakelock is: AlarmManager (Android System) and Kernel WakeLock: Battery-monitor
I've also attached BBS Dump file.
Thanks for your answers
2.2% is not that bad yet. Wifi uses lots of power, especially on some routers that (it seems) do not allow throttling of transmission speed during sleep or that are far away.
Especially considering that you have 2 out of the "bad 3" installed (which are: Facebook, Skype, Whatsapp) when it comes to battery drain it's not very surprising that the AlarmManager (responsible for waking up your phone when there's stuff to do) has a high count.
Battery-monitor is the stats itself. As long as it runs it obviously needs to periodically collect data.
I guess it won't be possible to root the phone and give another BBS stats? Those are far better and if using Siyah more detailed.
Also, please include a screenshot of Android's own battery graph (in full-screen,not the one with the apps beneath) since that shows the wakelock distribution
Thanks for your answer, the phone is rooted, but I forgot to enable rooted options in BBS. So I'll leave it for the night and then post BBS stats and screenshot.
Maybe this question is little off topic but you've mentioned Siyah, I've flashed Siyah but when I entered Recovery there still was CWM recovery (which was odd because I had Galaxy S2 and after flashing Siyah I had Siyah recovery) so I've wiped everything flashed again but nothing changed, I've checked in System info under kernel and it showed that Siyah was installed and I could run STweaks normally.
Is this normal ?

First thing I noticed that your wifi is on all the time.
Let it turn off once your screen is off.
Settings > Wifi > Advanced and select wifi on while sleep, never.
If I do that will WiFi be reconected from time to time to receive notifications from gmail, whatsapp etc. ?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Use DS Battery. It turns off wifi when screen is off but will let it connect every designated period to let your phone sync. I get about 20% drain overnight over 8hours. I UVed all my clocks so I'd say yours is pretty good.

No, it turn off your wifi if your screen is off for some time. I am not quite sure, what's the default value is.
After wifi is off, device use mobile data to receive notifications. Also, you should disable auto sync because that's also major battery drainer.
I get 5-6% battery overnnight.
Hi!
I have been having an issue with my S III lately. For some time I have been trying to understand and configure my gps settings so that I could have gps always activated, without it draining the battery too heavily. I mainly tried manipulating my apps' location settings.
With no consistent results, I ultimately decided to try and turn gps off altogether in the pull down bar. Now, here's the issue; even with gps off, both the stock battery tool and GSam Battery Monitor report a 25% battery drain by "gpsd".
What am I doing wrong, and what can be done about it?
Thanks!

Sorry for posting in the wrong place, will do next time!
it seems there is a bug in gpsd. sometime it hangs at 100% cpu (25% -> 1 of 4 cores) you can check this in shell with "top" cmd
if it hangs only a reboot help.
you will notice a bit lag when you switch your phone on and it gets a bit warm when this happens
for me it happens once every 1-4 days and i have allready disabled all google location settings and samsung security settings
any idea ? i dont find anything else on google.
btw. it looks like this started happen with XELLA but cant say it for sure

That sounds exactly like the issue I have been having, especially it happening only one in every few days.
I can confirm that it seems to have had a definitive starting point, but not sure what changes I made at that point. What do you mean by XELLA? And are any other ways of telling when this happens?

This.
Even you turn off the Wi-Fi, the hardware is still on and searching, just it won't connect to any network.
But FYI since Android 4.1 there is low Wi-Fi battery consumption feature that phones use and if you are not connected to any network while Wi-Fi on, it will use maybe 1% battery overnight. I don't ever turn off my Wi-Fi because I want to connect to know network as soon as I am in the range and have the same battery as turned off.

Yes, is related to Google location service.
In OxigenOS you can turn off Wifi Scanning, but after that the wifi will be much slower in the connecting process.
In HydorgenOS there is no option to turn off Wifi Scanning.
I prefer to have wifi scanning active even if it will use more battery. On my phone, in 3 days, the Wifi shows 1% battery usage.
