(Q) App to help me pinpoint what is draining my battery? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

i know this has been asked before but has anyone found a great app to find out what is draining your battery?
when connected to wifi at night when i go to bed my phone will go from 70% to around 25% in a 6 hour span or so. i normally get 10 hours or so of use during a day but its crazy when my phone is sleeping and only connected to wifi the battery drain is insane.

Abnormal Battery Drain ?

So every night before sleeping I turn Data/ Wifi off, Past few nights ive noticed there has been a 12-15% drain in 8-9 hours.
Battery before sleeping 30%(data/wifi off)
Battery 9 hours later 15%
Stock 4.2.2
No Intense Background apps.
Is this normal ?? I don't think 4.1.1 had such battery drain with screen off and no data/wifi.
Thanks,
so u basically(roughly ) have 1% drop an hour? thats pretty damn good if you ask me
mine is usually 10 hours with intense use and 30 hours with minimal use eg: at work

That's normal at around 30% battery left. Once it reaches 30 and below it really would drain that much even without doing anything. But if you start with 95% percent and overnight drain of 15% with all off, then there is a problem somewhere. I usually have overnight drain of 3% for 8 hours.

Thanks for the reply buddy, 1.5% an hour seems higher, but as mrm43 said i think its the cause.

Thanks for your reply, I had a feeling about what you just said. But I don't recall this happening before, I could be wrong. Will charge up and test tonight and post results.
Also, I'm noticing my phone getting warm past 1 week while normal usage( Web surfin+music) area behind the camera.
So just to post back, I charged the phone upto 85% and turned off Data and Wifi, Woke up 8 and half hours later and the battery was 79%. Which is ok I guess, assuming only cell radio was on.

[Q] Plz Help!! Battery issue (fixed for now)

I bought G Pro day before yesterday. The device is amazing and i love it but i have got a small problem. First day i charged battery to 100% and i got a day usage with 25% of brightness set with screen on time for about a little less than 4 hours which is amazing. Yesterday i had to charge phone twice because the battery depleted within 2 hours on screen time and moderate usage like calls n text (no gaming). Today morning 80% power was left of second charge. I went to college and and did not use the phone much but battery got completely depleted within 1 hour of screen on time at 50% brightness. When i came home back i charged the phone to 100%, when i disconnected charger from phone the charge dropped immediately to 98%. After 3 mins it fell to 93% and now is depleting fast. there is no apps running in background or anything and no apps showing up in battery stats that may be depleting battery. Any solutions to this? can it be faulty battery? Plz Help!!!
Edited: viber or whatsapp was causing this battery drain. I rooted my phone n installed greenify. Hibernating all user apps fixed the battery drain. If anyone has battery drain issue may try this solution.

[Q] Cell Standby Power Drain Issue

Hello
I have new Samsung Galaxy S4 I9195, and everything will be ok, if the battery life will live more then a day. First few days the battery life was around 2days. Yesterday i plug off from charger (i only charge when it drop abut 15-10% to 100%). I go sleep with about 70% battery, and in the morrning what was my suprise when the battery was below 45%.

I use only 2G and in home i have always wifi turn on. As you can see in 15min phone eat 2% from battery when i write this post.
Phone is 90% time in one place where signal power is-73dBm 20asu
Whats the problem ?
I find this normal, 15 min - 2% (depends on what you are doing) i suggest you to turn your phone off when you are sleeping.
if i use chrome for like 5 min it drains 1/2 %
candy crush 10 mins drops 3/4 %
i have 17/18 applications so, it also depends on how many apps you have.
more apps is more battery use
so dont worry
Edit)
and 2% drain for posting this?
your lucky bro, my phone will drain probably 3/4 % (not sure)
@lgorek, to have some hints, read all this thread :

It could be a bug in the stock ROM. arco68 seems to have fixed it in his custom stock kernel :

For 99% there is problem for now i test it and search of the bug.
I notice that when i restart phone when is charging or after charge the battery life is at normal drop, BUT when battery drop to 10% i plug the charger and it reach 100%. Something is not working fine becouse the cell standaby power drain more battery.
I give more info in few day i will have more photos and you can see it.
dsavard i will check it, but first i test like i write up.

Phone Idle destroying my battery life.

Basically when I first got my phone it would loose maybe 1-5% battery overnight and in some instances still say 100% and I could get to the evening of the next day on the same charge, only using around 40-45% battery before I went back to sleep.
Now thought it's being a right git.
Took it off charge last night and woke up to find it only on 68% battery that's way too much drain overnight, in the processes 50% of that was phone idle, of which it used 60mAh.
Wifi was on but everything was disabled in the power settings, and I have left it on before and those were the nights i usually lost about 6-7% battery but never to this level.
I have no idea what's causing it
This has been happening to a friend of mine with his G4, and we were able to 'fix' it by switching the network to CDMA only. I know that it's not really a fix, especially if you don't have Wifi and use the internet a lot, but it'll let you use your battery for at least a day.

Excessive battery drain on idle

I took my 2013 N7 (WiFi) with me on a day trip. It had been charged to full before I went to bed (it doesn't stay on the charging stand overnight because I share the wireless charger with my Galaxy phone). I ended up not using it during the trip.
When I got home and pulled it out that evening, it had dropped to 62%, with no clear indication in the battery stats what caused it.
Usually I remember to turn the thing to airplane mode before taking it with me, but even still. 40% drain over an 18 hour period in standby mode seems incredibly high. I used to get a week of standby out of the thing. What's going on?
