What is your screen on time? If it's 4 or more hours then this is normal.
I'm not worried about that and this is new the media server.

If you stream music, or listen to music in the background while using other apps, that could be it. Surprisingly low battery life, I get mostly 12 hours with heavy use on full brightness.

Wow really? Do you think my battery is faulty? That's actually average battery life for me moderate use. At 50 brightness

Here is the other Page maybe this ll help figure out why I have ugly battery life
Sent from my SGH-T999 using Tapatalk 2
The fact that depletion is seemingly almost as fast as charging, I'll call a faulty battery. But your screen-on time is rather long at times, so that might lead to it. Try setting the brightness to automatic for a day, and see if that helps at all.
Post your screen on time and how long you were listening to music and stuff. Was it streamed or was it off your sdcard? Are you in a poor signal area or descent? Your awake bar shows you use your phone a lot or you have wake locks. Give us a little more info before you return the phone/battery.

I'm getting horrible battery life. Did a clean flash of ff02 right after it was leaked. 100% to 4% in 4hrs25mins. Anybody else getting this? I use it pretty heavily but it's still under 3hrs screen on with brightness at minimum.

Using data uses a lot of battery too. How much data were you using when this happened? If you turn airplane mode on you'll likely get 6 hours of screen time.
Also, try removing bloatware. There's like 6 sns apps running in the background.
You don't by chance use the official Facebook app do you? That can get into a state where it will never allow the phone to sleep and will be constantly using %25 cpu.

which ones did you remove?
ko's tweaks
not sure what rom ur running..but if its compatible with kobridge's batt tweaks, u should def check it out. I jumped on ff02 on venum's boa rom with the sf tweak and battery life is awweessooome!! and super fast!
Airplane mode would defeat the purpose of having a phone wouldn't it. I do use the Facebook app. I uninstalled it and will see if that helps.

Hello guys I wrote a guide that will help you improve your battery life because screen is the most thing that uses battery, here is a solution for all that, don't forget that the screen sensor for auto brightness is also taking lot of power.

I think we tested screen filter current draw on the nexus one and it showed no difference since its a software solution only. The mA draw remained unchanged using it or not.
Anybody noticed the difference, its doing great here.
This doesn't strain my eye as much, but doesn't see much on battery.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
I've been using screen filters for a long time now. Great app!
Sounds interesting, I guess, but lately I've been thinking my screen is actually more dim than I'd like it to be. To be honest, I wish auto-brightness settings erred on the side of "more bright" rather than "less bright." There's probably a mod for just that, but I haven't really looked for it yet.
I managed 4h30m screen time on auto brightness, data on.

My battery life time is pretty bad with CM9...
But when I tested that, my battery was already dead (not working well)
I've ordered a new one. Because my battery lasts only about 10 minutes. No joke !
You should probably get a new one, or don't use CM9...
Because this isn't normal. Others battery lasts about 1-2 days on CM9. (saw some screenshots in this forum, with cm9 and 2 days battery lifetime, without charging)
Try to turn of your Data connection (if you have one) or try to use WiFi instead of Data Connection if possible.
What about display brightness? Turn it down on about 50% to save power.
Hope I could help you a bit..

Deep sleep is a process qhen your phone processor is ''stand by mode'' so it doesn't consume too much battery but all the phone's apps are still working. That is deep sleep with my version. If anyone could add more or correct me please do

I have searched a few times for a resolution to this problem, but have been unable to find one that works. I have noticed that when the media server shows up under my battery stats screen I usually have an update waiting on play store.
Is there any way play store could be the cause?
In other posts I see people complaining of 10-20% battery consumption. Mine has hit up to ~70% battery consumption.

Turn your data off when you're not using it. But most likely it's an app causing a wakelock.
