I have now swapped the board with another phone and the screen and everything work just fine so I have narrowed it down to the board.
fixed!
It was a bad power button!
Glad you got it figured out.

What ROM are you running? What apps are you using frequently? A lot goes into determining how to get better battery life

Yes sorry for lack of info. I was working and only had a second! I'm currently stock completely. Just got the phone yesterday from a friend who bought it but decided he wanted an iPhone 5s. I'm not using anything really. Made a phone call this morning for about 15 minutes. And a little texting here and there. But when the phone is screen off and sleeping the battery is just draining like crazy. I'll post stats in a second.

I believe it's power and volume down if you're on sense and power and home with aosp.
I disabled wifi so I didn't get that constant wifi notification crap. It helped a little. I plan to s_off and root the phone as soon as possible so I can start disabling things to help too.

My brothers S3 is soft bricked, it boots but will not go into recovery mode. It will go into download mode but before I am able to flash anything it shuts off. I made sure that the battery was fully charged. Any suggestions?

Whwn you go into download mode are you connected to ODIN? Does Odin at least see the device?
Odin recognizes it but before it can do anything the phone shuts off

Make sure it has a satisfying click when pressed. If yes than I'm wrong. If not than try pressing it a couple times or spraying compressed air at it.

It is a satisfying click, I don't think that its the issue, any other ideas?
Okay so I was using my phone and it suddenly turned off and when I attempted to turn it back on it would show me the galaxy s4 screen and turn off right away. Does anyone know why this is happening? Every time I try turning it on it does that. I tried booting into recovery and no go idk what else to do. Any help is appreciated.
Have you tried a battery pull? Then some charging.

Thanks everyone for all your help @TheSickness was correct I'm debating if I should upgrade to an s5.
Sent from my GT-I9505 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
The S5 finger print is a major target for hackers to steal your identity. Just saying, if you upgrade, make sure you don't goof up. I'm almost afraid to upgrade to the S5, been thinking of getting a note again. But really IDK. Maybe I'll keep my S4 and get a tablet or a kindle. Something to do my desktop website development work on.

Take out the battery and put it back in. If it tries to power on by itself you have a faulty power button.

Cool! If it begins to happen again, Odin flash the firmware and factory reset. If its software related this should take care of it.
Thanks, I will let u know what happens
