Looks like you have an app in the background that causes your problems and dont let your phone to deep sleep
i figured it was something along that line...since deep sleep takes up so little. but i thought the screen is the biggest waster, any app that is simply in the background shoudlnt deplete my battery so fast.... i have to charge 3 times a day...
BUT HOW DO I FIX THIS..

Yes, but the screen cant eat your whole battery in 2h ... i have ARHD 6.1.0 and stock kernel and my screen time is about (minimal) 4h with autobrightness

I am not sure what apps and mods you are running, but what i would do is:
-install android wall from HERE to block some useless apps to access the internet (this app has a widget too so you can enable and disable the firewall whenever you want)
-use more the task manager to track what apps are running
-follow this instructions (the one you think could help)
-and disable some unneeded apps here
edit: almost forget, dont use any task killer, they are useless and causing more battery drain ... ill quote one of the best kernel devloper we have on the HOX so far, faux123: "Please DO NOT use any task killers, they DO NOT improve performance nor battery life. They INTERFERE with your phone's stability (more crashes) and App compatibilities (Forced Close)."

What apps were running?
Have you tried installing current widget to see what is exactly happening, or how much voltage is going through your phone, even though it's sleeping? (ie, screen off)
I have not tried yet
Sent from my HTC Desire using XDA Premium App
This happened to me a few times (with almost no apps running) on RC7. Updating to 2.01 seems to have fixed that for me.
If that doesn't help, try using a different kernel and/or a different radio version and see if that works for you (we're reduced to experimentation as nobody has ben able to determine what exactly causes this issue).
I'm well impressed with mine. I went to bed with it fully charged, used it a bit in bed, always play a game and check the forums. Not plugged in at all and woke up this morning and its still fully charged!!
Amazing, since I have yahoo messenger running always. Been using it a lot since I woke up and now on 96% but I know its mainly the screen that uses a lot.
Brilliant ROM tbh
See if this helps:

well it's not really going to save your battery life, it just lets you see when/how the battery is being used up

What ROM are you using now?
Are you using a Live Wallpaper?
Also mention something you've done after which the battery drained faster... (something done after rooting)...
I don't know and im not using a live wallpaper.but when I rooted the first app I installed was set CPU and its on highest frequency,also when u finished rooting I remember that I entered cmw and flashed an update.zip which came by itself.could you please give me a battery saving ram?

I think its definitely setCPU. When i installed it my cpu freqquencies would change every second between min and max frequency(no matter what governor i used). The result:excessive battery drain
I think its because stock kernel doesnt support overclocking(or even underclocking)...May be the devs could explain it
After i did a factory reset, battery is ok now for me. No battery drain when kept idle for a night:good:
P.S. Also before reset my HW decoding(in video playback) wasn't working(now its ok)....any1 experienced this too?
The problem isn't setcpu the problem is that he set it to 2ghz

I think it is the setCPU too, try to use no-frills, it is a tad better in my opinion, but stock kernel doesn't like non-stock settings that is for sure.
I upgraded to rc2.1 cz they told me that the battery drain will decrease, but its still the same

how often do you use your phone and what operations do you do with it... are you always on full brightness? is your gps always on? are you always on wifi or bluetooth? some things to consider that may take chunks of battery life..
Always on wifi

you need to reset the battery by the sounds of it, empty your battery tonight, run some games or put youtube on or something....there used to be an app on the market that would run gps\wifi\brightness all max etc and empty your battery for you....not sure if it's still there.....but when you do root you can clear battery stats which will make your life easier....but yea empty it, charge it while it's off and HOPFULLY everything will be fine for you also as a sidenote, i charge my phone with wifi on and internet radio playing in the night and charges to 100% fine
When should I clear the battery stats?
Sent from my HTC One V using xda premium
it's known to reset the "capacity" of battery, but personally i don't believe it.
Use program BetterBatteryStats and see what's keeping your mobile phone awake, and also install CPU Spy to see on what frequency is your phone mainly working.

Whenever this happens to me I just start from scratch. Back up any of the stuff I really want to keep (pictures, and themes usually) and then do a factory reset/full wipe, battery stats and cache etc. I then reinstall the rom, or install a different one.
This has always fixed it for me, infact it has fixed most problems for me. Overheating and lag as well as battery drain!

Task manager is what you need. I know it was discussed many times and classified as redundant, but I had same issue like you. Fully charged battery was dropping faster than petrol from my bmw 540i. Within 4 hours down to 54%. Now, installed Clean Master from play store,and using built in task killer and can tell you its a HUGE improvement. With this app now battery show 82% in same period with same settings. Try it out and you'll see...

Sooo i want to ask u guys what is your battery life on note 2 especially i want to know the screen time on and the kernel used and other tweaks u used like scheduler and governor/
On mine i want to say that i got like 5 hours screen on saber kernel(41.3_7100) .
5 hours and 30 minutes more or less on adam kernel.

Sorry but those threads are meaningless to my opinion. Battery life / screentime depends on personal config of the device as well as usage patterns. Therefore results are not comparable. I can easily pimp screentime up to 7 hours or more when reducing brightness to min and displaying mostly dark or black screen. So you never know how stats are generated.
Btw. Your 5 hours are perfect, if you achieved them by normal usage.
Just my 2 Cents
I kinda agree. It depends what you are doing with the phone when the screen is on. I normally play asphalt 8 on max brightness so my on screen time is not as high as some that you see.
But where I think comparison is worthy is with screen off time. I'm currently getting Drain of 1% per hour.
This is with the new saber kernel which I think is a big improvement on the old and id suggest you try it op

You're right. Battery drainage while screen is off shows how well your device goes into deep sleep mode.I usually have more than 1% per hour since wifi eats a lot more energy. I have turned wifi psm off for stability reasons.However I'm using Deep Sleep Battery Saver App and therefore I'm now able to achieve similar results.

Hey guys, I've been using my nexus 7 and one thing I noticed is that my standby for the tablet is bad like I would leave it on my table for an hour and it drains about 5 percent. I have a droid DNA and with that I usually lose ,maybe 1-2% an hour on standby while connected to WiFi. Any ideas? Also I'm using clean ROM 1.7 and elemental kernal 1.4

install one of the available Battery apps which track wake locks etc and then optimize your settings or switch to another Kernel/ROM

I am in utter AWE about the idle drain. It's almost non-existent. Carbon Rom, default kernel, with Greenify and AutoStarts, the usual tweaks. Result:
Two percent a day is "doable"
