WTF is WRONG with you? Do you think that posting the same problem 5 times is going to get you help faster? Most likely now we will all ignore you.
Good luck with your problem, lol.

1) Try posting this in the Q&A section.
2) Try posting your problem in the thread DEDICATED to the ROM you are using.
3) Use f**king search, and find out about other peoples solutions re: batt life.
4) Come to terms with the fact that no one wants to help a forum spammer.

Ok so Im posting in the DEV section because this only happen with AOSP Roms what the heck is the deal with the High Android System usage I have confirmed this issue doesnt happen until you have use the phone to make or receive calls. EVERY single GB AOSP ROM I try to love has this issue. I have seen that rolling back your PRI will work..ok then my question is why dont you see this in Sense ROMs. I would love to know the REASON this is happening so any Devs that have been seeing this can you enlighten me/us??
TIA

Tried many kernels,every flavor of AOSP Roms, rolled back the PRI and NV no change. Its painfully obvious nobody really knowns a dam thing for FACT as to why this happens. Oh well back to Sense Roms till its figured out.

You might have your governor set to performance or something. Try flashing a custom kernal and set your governor to smartass with a min of 245 and a max of 960 or something similar like that. I was getting the same result you're properly getting where it seem like my system was over heating and draining my battery like crazy and this worked like a charm! Also, go to settings/accounts & sync/ and uncheck background data because that also drains your battery like crazy too!
Oh and it this helps, I'm running CM7 RC4 with Tiamat's 3.3.4 SBC kernal
Hope this has helped and don't let the idiots bother you dude!
I have been working with Barnicles on this very same issue . Some phones suffer from it others dont . Example I just finished talking to my mom for 30 mins . My "Android System" usage is now sitting at 85% , voice calls at 12% , cell Standby at 2% , Wifi at 2% and phone idle at 2% . Him and I believe it is something in the settings of GB that either records it incorrectly or is relabeling the usage incorrectly . I have tried it all myself from upgrading my pri to 1.90 , downgrading to 1.77 . I have tried different kernels and had no effect . I have tried turning off everything and disabling all apps no effect . We are still working on it but I dont have alot of expierence with reading and writting script , so hes mostly on that end while Im on this end trying different combinations of things to see if I can reduce it if not eliminate it . So far it seems to be pointing in the direction of either the frame work or the actual scripting . Like I said its a work in progress . Also i have tried almost all of the GB roms out there personally and they all suffer from this same issue . It makes me believe it is indeed part of the coding somewhere .

I have checked out the Nexus S forums . Most seem to complain of Display and cell stand by being the major drains on battery life . None have really complained of high android system usage . Our issue here in the HTC EVO realm seems to be its more of a cosmetic issue . Battery life doesnt seem to be impacted by it . Its still odd I can have the phone , text , surf the web , facebook and everything but when I make a phone call Android system skyrockets to the top . Maybe initially it isnt registering Android system usage at first and for some reason a call being made triggers it to appear . Not sure just been guessing at this
Ok, not sure where to post this but it has to be rom related or maybe kernel
this has been going on for a little while now and i cant figure out whats causing it..
it may be temp related but it has been doing it when the temp is normal too...
basically, it reboots and doesnt stop, i have to take the batt out and then it will reboot normal.
i tried different kernels and roms, they all have been doing it...
not sure if something is damaged like the batt or phone but im getting sick of it..
any ideas?
i got this evo when it came out, it was rooted from day one and i have been able to OC heavy at times..
im not over doing the OC since i know how much to push it there... the undervolt is fine.

How are you wiping in between roms? My wifes phone does that every once in a while. Usually a good wipe with Virusroms Superwipe does the trick.

HTC phones are very picky meaning that after flashing so many ROM's it can cause bad mtd blocks. Thus the phone does not let the it boot proper. I'm not saying that this is the problem but it could be one. If I were you I would try to flash a RUU and wait a couple days to see if the phone acts normal. If it does try to flash a ROM and see if it starts again, if it does then it may be a bad mtd block. You should do a log cat so we can see where and why the phone will randomly reboot.
Try virusrom's superwipe, and yes, try going back to stock for a while. But also, don't laugh off the people that tell you to post in the right section. This forum is way too cluttered already. Development forums in particular. Mistakes happen, but please read the rules at least once. Anyway, now you know--have fun here at XDA.

Like was stated above, try flashing back to STOCK and UNROOTED. If it still does it, take it to Sprint for a replacement since it'll be a hardware issue then.

this is driving me nuts!!!
hand up the phone and it reboots none stop
it feels hot, but damn... it didnt do this before
man, im almost at my limit!!!
i have been messing with the phone a lot today... partition my SD card and flashed
but man, this reboot problem is driving me nuts!
this hasnt happened to anyone else?
i do flash a lot from time to time but i dont think i have over done it...

For me i never done that. As long as the battery is full don't need to excess the charge time. Because it can make your battery life shorter in some articles i have read

important are 3-4 full loading cycles like drain battery till it shutdowns ur phone and load it till 100% when phone is off
Ok I know this question has been asked so many times but I have searched and read and read and then read some more but I can't find a real answer. I used to go more than 4 days on a single charge with minimal phone usage but then I updated to 4.2.2 (kk) and noticed a significant amount of loss in battery life. A couple of days later, the batt was back to normal however I got another update (whatever the hell that was supposed to do) and since then (a couple of weeks now) my phone barely lasts 2 days with barely even making one phone call. When I check the batt. usage I don't see anything that's more than 25%. (Cell standby for example is 23%). Anything I can do?
Also, after the update, the sidebar thing (I'm not sure if that's what it's called but it's the menu you get when you press and hold the return button) is no longer there. What happened to it?

Hello there, here I am to help you out, not to tell you off or scold you. Hope no one banned me for this jaja. well so let's begining. I found something interesting concerning to battery draining starting from kitkat. The first one is "media scanner" it drains a lot of battery, so if you use dr ketang you can handle this, or if you don't want to use dr ketang just install his apk + security settings -obviously rooted device- (to get it working good - available in playstore too) and there you got something good. My next step is just research for android system usage, that is high on kitkat custom sammy roms, don't think this happens on the aosp (not sure). so I hope this is useful for you. :highfive:

Hey guys, your mate from India here..
So, my M8 has been dying with the speed of Usain Bolt now, at max getting 3hr screen on time and battery will die when it's near 30%.
So, just wanted to know whether anyone here (especially from India) has had their M8's battery replaced?
What was the cost of replacement?
Was it worth it?
Did it have significant gain in terms of battery life?
My M8 has still been working good enough for me. Thanx to ResurrectionRemix ROM and TeamM8 Kernel optimizations but in the end, it's of no use if it dies on me within like a half-a-day. So help me guys.. Thanx..
