S Health using 30% battery - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Is anyone else getting this? I ran S Health with step monitor all the time on my gs4 and never encountered such high usage.
Has anyone run across a fix?

Go into your app drawer and find S Health, press and hold, drag to the top where it says Disable App, tap OK when prompted

Phone getting hot

I don't know if anyone is having the same issue but my phone is getting hot for no reason or from minimal use. Does anyone know what the problem is? I suspect a hardware issue but I am not sure. Thanks!

overclocking?
Kernel panics? charged for too long?
Maybe this is the case with charging too long but this occurs when I'm not charging as well as charging. It has also happened on multiple roms including stock. I'm running bionix 1.3.1

So i guess is data too ..because i was downloading trigger and the phone was using alot of data and i got hot...besides that its get hot when alot of use ..
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Yes lots of data use and over clocking both make the phone get hot. This is from the amount of current demand for these actions. I would suggest you get System Panel app from the market. You can monitor what's going on on your phone with this app and better figure out which action is the one causing the most demand.
Thanks guys for your help

XDA App eating battery when running in background?

I've noticed that my XDA app on the Galaxy S3 (ATT) is eating up alot of battery. Ate almost 40 minutes of CPU. One time when I went into task mananger, it showed high CPU usage and I wasn't even using it for a while (so it was idle). I also noticed this with the Engadget app.
Anyone notice anything similar? Just seems like they should be sleeping and not using CPU in the background...
Try reinstalling them. I haven't had this problem with either :/
See attached. My screen has been on about an hour and xda for 50 min.

And this is it just running in the background.

All I can think of is to reinstall. It shouldn't be doing this obviously
I've uninstalled and reinstalled before those screenshots.

Well no idea then, sorry. You could force stop them when you aren't using them.

i'm having the same issue. att sgs3 completely stock never flashed rooted or odined. my phone also seems to stutter and lag a bit more than i was lead to believe it would but i really only started to notice it after installing xda.
i have been using the xda app quite a bit today but an app doubling the screen in battery drain just seems wrong.
xda app cpu times:
total: 2h30m
foreground: 55m
i'm thinking about flashing the stock firmware odin package....... but i'm also thinking about trading in my blue for a white and i think the obvious lag stutter problem might help me avoid restocking fees.
oh what to do?
so no one else is having this problem? just us two?
I'm having this problem as well. I had 90% when I went to bed. 6 hours or so later when I woke up I had 50% left :/

I have also been having this problem since my s2. You can see in the task manager its running about 10 pct in the background. Never found a way to stop this apart from manually closing the app in its settings or force close.
I have been having the exact same issue with my XDA app. It just sucks the battery, using 20-35% on average. This is very odd as I have never had a problem with the xda app before. This is an app issue, hopefully they will update this.

I had xda premium i while back and then they started pushing update and the app wasnt the same ...so i bought tapatalk..no regret what so ever

I also have this problem. I've been manually fcing the app. I assumed it was due to the app trying to serve adds. But I don't really know

Guys, I've had a little better luck...at least its not killing the CPU total (was above 20% before on idle). I've disabled notifications in the settings and I've also disabled the 2 listeners using AutoRun manager.
Does anyone here who is experiencing xda app battery drain have a rooted device with an ad blocker? I have never had this issue with the xda app and the only thing that has changed other than the phone is not being rooted /ad free. My guess is ads are somehow causing this problem.

Have you tried changing the Settings / Notifications/Receive Notification/How often to check
I put never(or Uncheck Receive Notification) and That helps out allot

Google Maps killing battery

Anyone know what is going on here? I haven't used maps once since rooting.
Thanks in advance

Google maps uses your gps...and some data...in return it eats up battery pretty quick.

Definitely! Data drains battery so fast. Errrrrrr. I like using wifi than data
Go into location settings in maps and disable location reporting.

I think Google Now keeps going to maps for traffic alerts and drive times.

Download greenify and hibernate the app.

Try Backitude. Lets you specify the interval that location updates are done rather than the constant polling that Google maps does.

I am having trouble with the media app running it is draining my battery bad. Anyone else having this problem. The second picture is not the actual usage.
Have you tried Grenify? I don't have any issues with that but that app might help

I tried to add it to greenify but it didn't show up. I did a factory reset and deleted a bunch of stuff 2 days now no problems.
You're downloading media, probably Google music. Suggest using WiFi for the caching process.

I don't have any music on my phone. I'm not intentionally downloading anything.

Anyone know how to disable "software update available" prompt?

Just like the title suggests, Im on rooted MK2 build and am looking to stay till root is achieved on kit kat. This prompt keeps popping up every couple minutes and i really hope there's a way to disable it...
Thanks
Usually if you long press on the notification you can uncheck the box for showing it. At least it shouldn't nag you anymore.
