The first step is to download Spare Parts, and check battery history under Partial Wake Usage and cpu usage.
If its an app, then delete it.
If not, try reflashing your rom/kernal.
Themes always make battery drain faster

As the title states what would happen if I did the clear batter stat in cmw? Just curious
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Your phone would have to re-create the battery stats so if you did it while your battery was at 75% your phone would stop charging at 75% since that was now what the phone saw as 100%
Interesting. So if you did such a thing how do you reset it so that the battery charges to truly 100% ?
I have been noticing less battery life out of mine since I cleared these stats a few days ago. Fyi..running most current version on midnight rom.
In addition I have been noticing that when I let my phone charge all night it seems to stop at 96,97 % and never get to 100%

You would have to restore a NAND backup from before you wiped stats.
What if I charged my battery fully from my wifes phone where I have never monkied with this setting. Once that battery is fully charged I would put it back into my phone and then reset the battery stats again.

That would work.
Everytime I reboot my phone my battery drops a significant amount. I tried charging it in full, unplugging it, & doing it again & then wipe battery stats but its still the same. Anything else I could do?

There are different theories/methods for this. I charge to full, unplug, wipe battery stats, plug in and charge to full again, wipe stats then let it run down to about 15% and recharge and wipe one last time. People will say my way is crap but it seems to help. Also, just letting the battery run down and charging back up seem to condition the battery to your new setup. There are several little tweaks made by devs in pursuit of better battery life so it may read inaccurately at first. Let your battery settle in. I say in a day or two, you will see improvement

Dunno about the "best way", but this is a convenient way without having to boot into CWM.

best way!!!!
my battery drains fast and i dont know what to do.
ive installed juice defender and did everything else to limit the battery drain as much as possible.
one thing ive noticed is that my screens brightness is set to low, but on my battery stats it says Display 64%
and recently my system says 30%
i left my phone on the charger overnight. and it got unplugged from the charger, when i woke i looked at my stats and the display was at 64%
the phone signal bar was filled and it was bright yellow.
and my system said 34%
can anyone help me?
When you plug it into a wall charger, can you confirm its charging AC and not USB
How old is the battery? Have you checked all the software that are automatically sync ?
I think that you must dig deep on what's your battery being used and consider the age of the battery in there too

Yes I can confirm it, it says ac charging

@ megabiteg not even a year old. I tried screen filter, flashing diffrent radios, changing wallpapers and turning off haptic press. How do u suggest I dig deeper?

There are battery monitoring apps that you can find to monitor unusual activity.
Now your display is at 64% which is very peculiar.

Hmm I don't know what's up with it. I set my CPU low and I'm running evolved Final ROM.

Could it have something to do with sense?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Try System Panel, it's in the market. Best app I've found for monitoring battery consumption, especially when you need more details than the About Phone section under settings provides. It is a premium app, but cheaper than a new battery. Hope you find a solution quick! Battery problems are a pain.

Have you tried calibrating your battery? Charge to 100%, then boot into recovery and wipe battery stats (or you can use the Battery Calibration app). Let the phone discharge fully - don't plug it in until it dies - then charge back to 100% without breaks.
It could also be an issue with your usb cable or charger. Sprint can run a test on the battery to see if it is the problem. Try calibration first to rule that out, and never wipe battery stats unless you're fully charged.

I've tried the battery calibration. And I've done the wipe stats. I've read on how to recalibrate from HTC....

Another thing I've noticed is that my battery drains when I flash a ROM...

try charging it while its turned off then repeat the steps plainjane said. i was in the same boat as you when i flashed the evolved rom, now my battery life is pretty good.
What I just did was downgrade my radio one. My battery has been so much better in life. I am at 7 hrs right now at 66%. I have been using 4g, texting, and sending emails. Currently running Decks 1.3, SZ 2.2.1 CFS Havs.
What radio do you suggest? I'm on 1.77

I know this has probably been answered somewhere before but I couldn't find a good answer. I have lost 10% battery in an hour and a half with no use other than stand by. Any tweaks within the Cyanogen settings I can make to help at all?

Did you add any kind of task killer on your phone to prevent things from running in the background all the time?
I have advanced task killer but its just an app. Its not running all the time.
Sent from my ADR6300 using XDA
And I let my battery drain all the way to 0 and charged fully from scratch with it off. It lost about 20 in an hour add opposed to 10 today.

You can set it to auto-kill. I'm actually kinda surprised you're having a lot of battery problems with RC3 though, you may just need to wait a few days for everything to stable out. When we get new ROMs we like to play with them a lot and drain the battery! I would also suggest using auto-brightness to prevent excessive screen power usage.

That's not normal for idle at all. Is the battery old and just wearing out? if it's fairly fresh (< 1 year) then it should be fine. Try betterbattery stats to see if the phone is keeping wakelocks and also CPU spy will let you know if your phone is reaching the deep sleep state.
I have the brightness not on auto because it was picking up the light right, but it's turned down pretty low. I'm about to post the results of the battery info, and those 2 apps... They're in the below zip folder...
I unplugged my phone about a half hour ago and have been using it a decent amount. Went from 100 to 80 in that time.

the first ~10-20% is not always that accurate.
I don't know that drain just kills me lol.

I've had battery issues ever since I bought my Note 2. I tried buying a new battery, custom ROM (ARHD 13.0), custom kernel (RedPill). I get a drain of 2% per hour in standby, and 17.2 percent (!) per hour in normal usage, not even heavy gaming. The screenshots are for continuous usage. I got rid of wakelocks, the AudioOut2 one by Viber, the NetworkStatusMonitor through maps. (these were 80% of all partial wakelocks)
I usually have sync enabled, 4 email accounts for once in four hours, and Facebook, and Samsung backup. That's it. I'm on an EDGE network, with network set to GSM only, WiFi only on when required.
I have ~83% Deep Sleep when I don't touch the phone overnight.
All motions/smart *s are disabled.
I don't know what else to do. My wakelocks show completely normal values. (I'll upload some when I get to unused time)

Almost 90% sleep. But still draining 10% in 10 hours of no use.
Could someone help me debug this drain?
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
If you are complaining about 10% drain over 10 hours (1% drain an hour) then you are very mistaken about how a mobile phone works.
There's nothing wrong here I can see.
I've seen people report less than 3% drain overnight. And 2-3% per hour of use. 17% an hour? Too much.
Edit: I know cell phones consume battery because they're wirelessly connected to and monitoring networks and that they need battery to receive and process packets of data and other stuff while not being used, if that's what you mean.

Is your wifi power save mode on or off?
!!
I have the same excact problem. Just bought it and the battery drains so faaaaaaaaast !!!...
The screenshots in my first and second posts are with WiFi on, connected but never searching. In the third post, WiFi was off the whole time.
Edit: Power saving was off both times. There's a noticeable FPS drop with power saving that I hate.

Please get Better Battery Stats, and post your screenshots over at least an hour of no use, and 30 minutes of use. I might be able to help. (I'll try, anyway).

Are you on an AOSP/AOKP/CM based ROM? I understand that battery will be significantly better on those than a Sammy based ROM because of Sammy bloatware, but I'm unwilling to lose all the perks. Although the figures I said people have are all for people on either stock with custom kernel, ARHD, or ARHD with a custom kernel.
Edit: I also took care to take these figures from this forum from people who had a few syncs/online services enabled.

Not anymore. Perseus kernel with Greenifier = 0.3% drain an hour, and 5% per hour of use.
