I and some other people on android central have had some strange activity with the battery drain and the internet app since the last official ota. I did a little experiment last night and put my phone into airplane mode after charging it and restarting it. Sure enough, this morning:

I would do a factory reset but my laptop died and I'm away from my desktop. Has anyone else experienced this aberrant internet activity on the stock ROM?
Have you tried disabling the syncing options under your Google account for things like internet to try and see if it changes anything.
You should use an app like better battery stats (available free for XDA users here on the site) or gsam battery monitor to see some more specific information.
Also use one of those apps to see if its using power when it has a data connection. In other words if its using more battery because its constantly trying to sync something while there is no data connection.

I turned off all sync., network location, notification, backup...
but the problem is still there...
I dont know why this happens suddenly.
Last night, I tried to use autostarts app to turn off some apps including google apps. Although my phone is in flight mode, it never sleeps and awake every second!!! My battery was drained from 88% to 78% (flight mode, 6-7hrs).
I have never tried this before...these three wakelocks account for up to 90% of the total
Try logging out of few Google services like maps, navigation, latitude . That could be the culprit

Hello everyone,
I've had my GS3 for over a month now and I can say I am quite happy with it. Battery life is rather consistent (I come from an Apple IP4).
There is something that is bugging me though. Every time I am connected to a wifi network, battery drains faster than usual. Whenever I check the battery usage, I can see that the phone wakes up for short periods of time repeatedly, mainly when I am using wifi. Here's a screenshot of it.

I am on 4.1.1. No custom ROM and/or rooted.
Hope you can help me.
Something's waking your phone regularly... not WiFi. Use BBS to monitor what is doing it.
It is likely to be an app using a network connection for data retrieval.
My guess is that an app is set to sync\download\upload when you are on WIFI only, and stuck in a loop. Install Better Battery Stats, charge your phone fully, put it on WIFI and then leave it for an hour. Then check and\or post your BBS log.
Happy hunting.
Is there a free app that i can do that with???
Thanks a lot.
Probably wlan_rx_wake wakelock
There are custom kernels for that
You know, as i said, I've only had the phone for over a month. More info on that would be greatly appreciated.
Hey guys,
Last month I got pretty close to my shared data cap so this month I'm trying to be a bit more frugal. According to my data usage logs though, in the last few days my "android system" has used a LOT of data. Anyone have any idea what could be doing it? 200MB all in the background. I decided to block the system from data access via a firewall change (WiFi only) and see if that stops it.

That won't help considering data charges only apply for when you're not on wifi. Could of been that you updated a large app or several while not being on wifi.

Then it would show the play store using a lot of data I don't think it's apps. I think it's a system app continuously trying to connect to something.

Looks like your screen is eating a lot of battery.
Try reducing the brightness to minimum.
Also the OS on your phone takes some time to set itself up so wait a days or two and then check it again.
Also there have already been many threads adressing the same issue, starting a new thread without searching is not a healthy habit.

I can highly recommend greenify (when you have root access). It can solve a lot of battery drain problems, due to stopping unwanted backup processes from running.
Hi,
I've tried a couple of roms recently, but I am a bit bothered by the battery usage by "Android system".
My phone is only giving me around 4 hours of screen-on time.
Sometimes, these system processes:
Binder_2
kswapd0
Peak my phone CPU usage. Under "screen", they are usually the top consumers. Is this normal?

Here I was playing ingress on and off for around 4 hours. For those of you who are not familiar with it, this is a game that uses GPS, Wifi, a mobile data connection, and your GPU, all at once. The battery drain was so bad I had to plug in my battery pack just to get through these 4 hours. And note - the screen was not even on the whole time! Point being, android os and android system managed to consume more power than ingress for that period of time.
I see nth wrong. Looks logical.
