Hay I just left my phone on over night to see what uses the most battery with me doing anything.
The screen used 30% of the battery, what is odd is that everything in the settings is off or set to the lowest it can be set to.
Can you guys help me with how to save more battery from the screen, this is silly that its using so much when it's not doing anything.
What can you think of to help?

Are you unrooted? Do you have a custom ROM? Have you tried taking battery in and out? Or even when these things happened when I was not rooted I found turning airplane mode on and off to work or rebooting the phone as it might of just been a rogue app not allowing the phone to sleep.

hi ,
i would say it is a app,behaving badly ,( badly coded, battery drain? ) that's draining your battery like that ..?
i would suggest try "currentWidget " to check you battery drain ( just remeber to enable the log file, in settings !
my drain, if i leave it overnight,
say about, 9/10 hours, is about 3%/ 4% for this period ( 1mA /3mA a hour )
also try "SystemPanel " to monitor you applications over period of time .
i had same problems as you,
say 15/20% battery drain ,from time to time ,but everytime managed,to id the culprit , with above apps ..!!!
you can find both applications in the market ?
you also don't need, any root for these apps above .
good luck
I'm using LEEDROID v5 I think which shouldn't make a big difference.
Thanks in will download the app and see what they say

regarding the OP, with a lot of the newer kernels the power monitoring stuff is snafu, confirmed by Mad-murdoch on cm, thus the reports of what's using the power are useless, although the overall usage is correct.
Lately the phone started to light itself on every ~2 minutes or sometimes it stops for a while and randomly does it again.
I usually place it next to my TV desk or on my computer one, is that the cause? If so, is it in any way harmful?
re
maybe some app is running in background......
maybe because of some background apps
Like the two people above me said check which apps are running in the background. I don't really know much, but maybe Better Battery Stats app will help. It's in the market. I use it to check which apps keep waking up my device and preventing it to deep sleep, thus draining battery.
Well I press the Home button a few times and even open the Task Manager to see if anything is running and there's nothing. :s
Task manager doesn't show apps running in the background.

Goto
Settings>> Applications>>Running Services
there you will find all the apps running in background
check which application(not stock core applications ) are running end any third party app and see if it helps
Install better battery status and check the partial wakelogs to know which app is conflicting

Thanks everyone. I think there was some left out stuff I forgot to end.
Recently I found a weird wakelock generate EVERYTHING I reboot my phone.
My setup:
phone: Galaxy Note 2 LTE N7105
Rom: Wanamite V1.1 N7105
Kernel: Perseus 33.1 (26/2/2013)
Modem : DLL5
Everytime I reboot, this AudioOut_2 wakelock keep waking my phone for 8-15 mins . After that the phone can go deep sleep alright
and this AudioOut_2 wakelock doesn't activate again until I listen to music or playing games with sound.
I already disabled all system sound in my phone, like keypad press tone, unlock sound..etc.
I uninstall/froze ALL music player apps, like Google play music and Samsung music player.
I tried to freeze poweramp(my main and only music player) as well to test if it was Poweramp generate this wakelock on boot, the result is not.
Even I freeze the poweramp and then reboot, the AudioOut_2 wakelock still here. The duration is about the same as well.
I disabled Media Scanning via Rescan Media (root) as well.
I don't know what's up with it? Can anyone have the knowledge can give me a hand on this one? Thanks
P.S I tried to reflash the Rom, Kernel and Modem too but doesn't solve anything.
Here are the screen shots

I don't have Viber - in fact I've no idea what it is - but Audio2 is my major culprit for partial wakelocks too. Never booted up in silent mode either, FWIW.
It hasn't worried me before because I still get good battery life - I switch between Redpill and Perseus - but now I'm paranoid because I've no idea what it is.
On [email protected], stock video and music removed, have Poweramp and MX Video instead, and have had this setup since SGS1 days.
If anyone has the patience to investigate further I'd be grateful. My kids preclude this.
I am using Galaxy grand phone with the latest CM11 4.4.2 kitkat in it updated on 04072014.
I bought my phone about a year ago ( feb 2013) and it works great but the battery drains bit faster. Like if its charged 100% and i take 50 to 60 shots on camera with flash and watch some videos browse on chrome it drains upto 90% thats okey but after then it drains so fast within 2 hrs it drains 30% 25 % and suddenly phone gets off or on 20 to 30 % if i make a call or even take one picture through camera it switches off though i log out skype , hangout , "location OFF" too when i go outside and all other apps except facebook, wechat, whatsapp, yahoomail and gmail. I have NOLED and GOOGLE NOW software running in phone does it cause this much big problem ? i don't think so..
PLEASE HELP THIS OUT!!

I m also using cm11 and never faced battery problem... U can use some battery statistics apps like gsam or better battery statistics for better understanding where is ur most of battery used and R u sure this is cm11 problem. Did u get better battery back up from stock rom.. If u not tested on ur stock rom then first test ur battery on stock rom.. And if u have same problem then i think its ur battery problem..now its time to get a new battery..

In CM11 battery backup is good...Just download a app like battery status and check what is consuming more battery and just disable it....If all is normal then probably its battery problem...U may have to replace with NEW one...

install wake lock detector from playstore and find the app draining battery ,use greenify and in wifi setting -advanced mode check if scanning is enable then disable scanning ,keep wifi on during sleep--select never
and why is utorrent killing so much battery are you using it extensively or is it running in background and killing battery
I was using my phone normally (3g, gps brightness at maximum) but I rebooted it with 80% battery and when I was called with 69% battery. this can be a problem in the battery or the rom? 'm using Cosmic-CM v3 f2fs

Hi, Did you resolve it? I am having the same issue. It suddenly switches off when it´s close to 30%. I made the mistake of purchasing a new battery, but the issue still happens with the new one... So I understood my issue is not in the battery but in my sw. I am also using CM11 in my i9082, I already tried returning to stock and the issue persists with both batteries. Nothing happens deleting batterystats.ini, using Battery Calibrator or similar apps via Xposed. I will appreciate your feedback. Thanks!
Hey bro.. I m on latest cm 11 ..Android 4.4.4 and i have not found any such issue.
Suggest u to disable GPS and mobile data/wifi while no using to save battery.

Hey, thanks for your answer. I am sure it's not a CM11 issue and not a battery issue. It should be something in the way the phone registers the battery level. It possibly was my fault as a few months ago, when I flashed a new ROM (I think it was AOKP from my old stock ROM), I did it with low battery. Now I think that crashed something that I cannot find anywhere.
What did I do since I detected the issue:
1) I tried changing for a new battery and for a battery in other i9082 that works perfectly
2) I tried restoring the original stock ROM and recovery
3) I tried flashing different custom ROMs (I love CM11) and different Recoveries (I prefer Clockworkmod)
4) I tried all kind of battery calibrators
5) I followed as many tutorials as available for cleaning the battery stats (even deleting the file in data/system), even those in youtube for other phones and ROMs
It seams to be the same issue described originally by Saurabhrajoria at the beginning of this discussion, but I cannot find any other space where to find a definitive solution.
I hope someone can help. It's not a big issue, but it's frustrating not being able to resolve it.
Thanks!

If you are running stock the on STAMINA mode. Also turn down brightness, turn off GPS and Bluetooth. Then see.
*blink*
yes, i'm experiencing the same, coc draining baterry a lot, if you're using wifi, try to switch the phone to flight mode and turn on wifi, if not, make sure your signal reception good, if the reception poor, it'll cost you more power.
a simple advice is don't play it whole time, just play it when necessary

There is an app called Greenify.. Try It. . It will be very helpful to increase battery life. .
Play games with airplane mode (if no internet is needed), use stamina mode, turn brightness down, keep volume low/ untick xloud in settings > sound (might not notice a difference), untick "touch sounds"/"vibrate on touch", kill processes of apps you're not using when playing the game, and untick "use suto rotate screen" in settings > accessibility
I ll advice you guys to stop playing CoC.. ?
