Why is my cell standby always so high up? Right now the phone has been on for 3 hours and the cell standby is at 41 percent.
Here as well.
What ROM are you using?

I'm not sure but could it possibly be from the device constantly trying to get or maintain signal? Or perhaps it's just the most used thing on your phone? My battery has only dropped 15% in the last ten hours because I was working and barely used my phone, yet the cell standby was 51%.

Yeah that's what it means. But why is it so high. My old HTC Aria only used about 15-20 percent battery for cell standby.

Now i'm even having trouble staying connected to my 5ghz network. I'm literally standing right next to my router and the phone just drops the connection like every hour.
As you use other stuff those percentages go up.
IF you have had your phone on for 3 hours and done nothing with it then cell standby will be high as the stuff below it was used a lot less.
I ve had mine on the battery for 20 hours and cell stand by is 34%
If you were to say play a game for a long time then your game and screen would go up in time.
Cell standby should not be that high no matter if you're using your phone or not. This sounds like the bug the the og sgs1 epic had that always caused the phone to have a high time without signal that drained battery. It was eventually fixed with the gingerbread update. Can one of you click on cell standby so we can see if the time without signal bug is back? I would like to know b4 I upgrade.
Edit: my cell standby never goes above 7% on my SGSII. And once the og epic got the fix the cell standby would remain below the 10%. Cell standby should be at the bottom of list unless you have crappy reception and the phone is constantly searching for service.

Cell Standby is a bug, easily fixed. Use the Flashable zip from http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1732722
Some ROMS may not have this fix included, but most does. If you see that you have really high Cell Standby try this out. Worked for me, I was on FreeGS3 and the version I was running didn't have it, now the lastest release has it included.
Now new problem. the phone turns on for 2 seconds and then turns off again. this is random though. Usually happens every 2 hours or so.

This is probably due to a well known bug on the Galaxy S III series, originally reported in the international version. The actual power consumption of Cell Standby is being overstated in the stats by a factor of about 10. This is a reporting issue, not an issue with actual power consumption. See this XDA thread.
It needs a fix from Samsung.

Sent from my Dinc2.
There was a bug in older phones, especially running 2.1. I had it with my Eris. I considered it a visual-only bug...meaning it didn't affect my battery life at all. You could tell if you had it because the Time without Signal would sit at exactly 50%.
From my limited use of my new DINC2, I don't believe it has this issue. So unfortunately it may be your coverage area.
To correct the TWS display, there was a fix involving airplane mode. This would drop the TWS number down after using the phone for awhile. As I said, I'm fairly certain it was inaccurate, as in my city I'm hardly ever without even a 3G signal. If yours is showing something other than 50%, then this bug is likely not the cause.
Mine is 1%.

I believe doing certain things, such as rebooting your device, will reset the counters. It could be 0% since the last counter reset.

Hi everyone I got my phone 4 days ago and have been through charge cycles but my battery life sucks. I only get a Max of 2hrs on screen time and 12 hours with the phone on (if its in airplane mode the whole time). Also, it takes forever to charge. I charged it from 7pm to 10:30pm and it went from 2% to 34%. And as i type this message (on wifi) I lost 3% battery life. What should I do?
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Also it seems that display takes up 50% battery (which is good) but as soon as I send one text, phone immediately goes to 50% and display down to 18%. It stays that way all day and rebooting does not help. And the battery percent goes up and down without charging. And yes I have calibrated it multiple times

Are you in an area with bad cell reception? My time without a signal is always very low only a few minutes and thats just from the time it takes me to drive through the mountain pass to and from work.
At work I have very low signal but driving to work I have great signal. So today my phone has been on 1.5 hours before getting to work. Cell standby is 63% and time without signal is 51%.
Btw this is a replacement phone. My first one had gps issues. Ive had it 3 days but seems to have weaker overall signal.
Here are my screenshots. Should I get this phone replaced too. I swear my other phone had great battery life. I have barely touched this phone but it's only on its third battery cycle. Battery is at 82%. Opinions please.

I would be happy if I got that amount of battery life. I can barely get 11-12 with normal usuage.
But that's not "normal" Usage those. That's me constantly conserving by disabling data all the time or airplane mode in general. Those numbers only reach that high on days I ignore my phone
i also find it very uncool that 70 something % of my battery was cell standby? really? wtf is that...

Cell standby is caused by LTE searching, 4G Searching, GPS searching, and WIFI searching when it not connected.
So 70 % or more of my battery was used for searching for signal? That's pretty lame considering I keep everything off or disabled unless I'm using it. .... how does that make sense.

Ha! Try hours with GPS, Bluetooth music and Tethering on... the heat seems to really hit while I'm charging and doing all that. Fact! I can't touch the ass end of the phone. It probably gets about 8 hours a week like that. Still working perfectly. Samsung tells me it's normal. It also has a lot of factors for me too. I use a 1 amp charger. After 96% it's not so bad. At night when brightness is down. Not as hot. I tried to get it to mess up but couldn't. GPS, Bluetooth, tethering, charging from 30% and 100% display, and I pushed out to a low coverage area. Didn't miss a beat or melt. Lol.

Navigation makes phones really hot, but with normal usage it should stay within 30-36°C.
I like this phone's heat management more than my old phone. My Evo 3d would get hot from 10 min usage.
On this, my screen has been on for 2 hours straight and I'm running at a cool 35.1 °C.

It actually shouldn't be expected. The Snapdragon S3's also ran at 1.5ghz and was pleasantly cool and the Exynos on the Galaxy Note was at 1.4ghz. Both are less power efficient and should run hotter than the S4. I've used the Evo LTE for a while with the same S4 and it barely got warm on a hot day. The issue is with the second core being weird. For those that hasn't already, make sure you flash Freeza's fix, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1790061 . This fix made my phone cool and got rid of my quickly draining battery life.
Most of the time my phone will stay within "normal" (to me) range, but when I game heavily... it turns into an oven range! I've gotten so paranoid a few times, I took the battery out and let it cooled for 5-10min

Just got a replacement Epic from Sprint about a day ago. Looks new, probably refurbished. They replaced my old one because it started having some problems along with fast battery drain and inconsistent battery level readings on the device.
So I have my new device along with a new battery from sprint, and I thought all would be well but my new epic and new batter is still draining about 10% every 20 minutes with light use (internet browsing over wifi w/ lowest screen brightness setting). Also, when the phone gets to about 30 or so percent battery life it starts lagging and when I pull the battery or reboot it, the batter meter will read real low (like under 10%) once it powers back up.
I am rooted, I installed The Peoples Rom all according to the instructions from qbking77 on youtube just as I had with my last phone without problem.
I have calibrated the battery twice, and wiped the battery stats in recovery.
I was having these same problems with my last epic which is why I had it replaced. Now I have a new one and new battery and the same problems. How can I fix it?
Also not using GPS, Bluetooth, etc

Sounds like an application you are installing is the culprit. Search XDA for "better battery stats" and download/install that application. It will tell you what wakelock is your problem.
Wiping battery stats has been stated to do nothing to benefit the phone/battery/user. It's a placebo. (http://www.androidcentral.com/wiping-battery-stats-doesnt-improve-battery-life-says-google-engineer)

GPS and Bluetooth being enabled is fine. They remain inactive until a process calls that action; such as opening Facebook or Maps.

Play with the settings in the middle and last drop down menus to pick a duration of time and then toggle the top menu to see what's keeping your phone awake. usually "partial wakelocks".
Also, if you have a virgin install, then you can very well have a battery on its' last leg. We have an old phone, so it is very possible you have an old battery. Yes, even from Sprint.
If you don't see any outliers in BetterBatteryStats, then I'd suggest just spending the $12 or $20 on an Epic 4G Touch battery. That one is a 1800mAh battery, compared to our phone's 1500mAh and fits in our phone.
The only thing that seems to stand out is No or unknown connection (something like that) screen (which is always on lowest setting) and wifi (which I'm mostly connected to indoors) the battery that sprint sent me for the replacement is from the GS2 (that 1800mah that u were talking about)

Toggle the "other" drop down menu and select "partial wakelock".
Also, check your time without signal in: settings > battery > cell standby menu on your phone. Anything greater than 3% will be a battery drain.

The screenshot you posted showed a cell standby percentage of 7%. I'm not sure what to do to fix it because it hasn't happened to me before.

So I pulled out my old battery last night and put it in the phone, and allowed it to charge overnight. This morning I put my phone through its normal use. I've been on my old battery for a little over 30 minutes and have on dropped about 8% in this time. I still feel like that's a lot, but its better than 10% every 20 minutes on the "new" battery they sent. So I'm guessing this would mean it is the battery that sprint sent that's causing the problem?
