Increased Battery Drain After Firmware Update - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy Note 3

Since the last update my battery drain had been significantly higher, the Android os is using just under 40% this is even when the phone has been in my bag with the screen switched off most of the day, it's like it's not going into sleep mode properly. I read on another forum that this is a common issue and to remove battery and delete cache but so far this hasn't made a difference.

What update?

I had to update the firmware a couple of weeks ago, I'm in the UK not sure if that makes a difference.

N900T = no updates.

It mentions herehttp://m.ibtimes.co.uk/android44-kitkat-galaxys4-note3-january2014-galaxys3-note2-524565 that Samsung has suspended updates for other handsets as 4.3 is causing a lot of issues, note 3 isn't mentioned but I see no reason why it would be any different.

It does say the note 3 comes with 4.3 preloaded but mine didn't.

Then you don't have an SM-N900T since it was only shipped with 4.3

Lol for real. Might have a knockoff mine came with 4.3 out the box

OTA announced when I called T-Mobile.

I called T-Mobile tonight to change my HTC One S to my wifes account due to picking up this bad boy and an automated voice came on while I waited and said that there was going to be an update for my device next week.
Im hoping we're talking 4.1.1 but I guess its better than guessing IF instead of when, just thought of another thing.... what if its for the One S and not the GS3.

I have the One S and its at 4.0.4 already, hell it could be for my daughters phone too but I agree with nightfox because T-Mobile is well known for dragging their feet on the updates in the past.

That's what I heard to the quadcores 16gb ones, which are mainly the international ones, they mentioned that there were no claims for ones in the US.
Yes, this is for the International version only. Quit freaking out. If it affected us in any way, you would have seen a million posts about it.

Even 4.2 doesn't have much of significance. Lockscreen widgets would probably be the biggest thing, but I don't use them on my Nexus 7. Until there is another major Android upgrade, I don't care at all about updates.

im not really worried about LTE to be honest. i get as good of speeds as i had on verizon where i live.
Who cares about 4.1.2. I want 4.2. And lte. I can wait for those. 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 is so minor. Nobody would even know the difference. A number.

True that. But I'll let you know the difference between 10-20 mg and 20-30 isn't as noticeable as you think. I use my wife's t mobile note and it's barely noticeable. Unless it's on edge like it seems to do a lot in SC.

your going to be waiting awhile for us to get 4.2.
I think it would be easier to just go from 4.1.1 to 4.2.0 since it's been so long already. If I'm going to get a update it mind as well be the newest version of Android. Then once we're on 4.2.2 the next big wait will be KLP. KLP will be the biggest update this phone will receive since this phone was released with jelly bean anyway.
So once Key Lime Pie is released Samsung is going to have to race to get it into this phone. It would look bad if it took more then a couple months to get the next version of Android on this device. Mainly because it's there top phone besides when the S4 comes out. Then the Note 2 will be Samsungs 2nd top phone.

The only useful one was the flashlight one, which would be null for an n7. It was the only locks creek widget I used on my n4, and the camera one, but the hold and rotate on the note 2 is better.

Anyone else. ...

Is anyone else going on hold off on rooting, installing custom recoveries and roms because they lost their imei on the s3? I know I am.

I'm amazed I've lasted this long without rooting, but like others above I'm holding out until I can 'fully experience' the stock software Samsung tossed out there. I didn't want to drop 600+ on a new phone and not at least give the new stuff a try!

Well back when the s3 originally came out we had a bunch of people randomly lose their imei. I would show up as just 0. And there was no efs folder to back up because it no longer contained imei.

On another point, recently in a samsung road show I asked a salesman.. is there going to be a 4.2.2 or direct to 4.3? He said note2 only has 4.1.1......
He even showed me their demo sets which is still on 4.1.1... I showed him my rooted stock which shows 4.1.2... His reply shocked me. He told me not to use custom rom because it will void warranty. My goodness. I'm on stock rom for crying out loud. When will samsung give proper training to their sales force?
