I'm currently running 4.1.2 stock, rooted. With Locked BL. The battery drain has been absolutely shocking. Help
Download from play store this app: Du Battery Saver&Switch Widget! I have this app since last week and it really works...
People in here are right. Greenify it's more than enough. But also Du Battery Saver can do the trick, what's great about it is that is lowering your CPU frequency when screenlock, so try them out.

Use screen settings as low as possible. Trust me, thats the main cause of fast battery drain.
Use Lux auto brighteness. Its a good app.
Next one , use titanium backup to freeze the app that you are not using. Its always a good to freeze app, so it wont run in the background and u can save RAM.
Use greenify. Thats the best app for hibernating the apps. That way both battery and RAM is saved.
And use DU battery Saver , thats also an awesome app. in which u can set the phone to change your profile on time basis, and lower frequency of cpu when screen is locked so battery is saved.
Hope u got some ways to prevent battery drain to a limit
Those apps are all great, but why have a HD Screen phone when you have to lower the screen brightness to a minimum, that sucks.

It's very simple, at du battery select saver at the bottom and create your own custom mode!
Thank you all for the responses, I will try out all the suggested apps and get back to you all. Thank you!
Keep the brightness around 35%. I find it perfect for indoors. Your screen on time should be atleast between 2:30 to 3 hrs on average.
Use darker wallpapers
And underclock to 1.2ghz or something if you dont use resource hungry apps. Use conservative governor and noop scheduler.
Trinity ROM
Screen brightness at 35%
Stamina mode on
Using greenify
Only 2G networks
Moderate Wi-Fi usage
Default CPU frequencies
Also, don't use battery savers like go battery saver and battery doctor, they only turn down brightness and data networks, alot of them don't have a great effect in battery life. Use apps that freeze/hibernate apps like greenify and snapdragomln battery guru.

so i did realise that you had your screen on alot of the time.... that is generaly 1 reason why , i can watch 8 hours straight of movies on my XS where as on a stock rom about 3 hours , so the XS battery realy depends
list
sometimes the battery will just need to be used normaly just so it can calibrate its self (some weird reason not using my XS for 2 days fixed my battery issues)
i suggest checking if there are any apps that run in the background, just remove them if you dont need them (could prevent your XS from sleeping and also a posible overheat)
I also suggest making sure that your brightness isnt too high, (obviess)
the more you use your XS the shorter the battery lasts day by day, it is nessicary to not use your xs too much as it will take a few days for the life to go back to normal ,(like i said i had a simular issue)
I can see a strange behavior of Mediaserver process. It consumes too much battery. Usually it points to the problem with scanning your media files.
You can use BetterBatteryStats to find out the cause of it.
Every time switch on airplane mode, the phone drains a lot of battery, 50% overnight.
It's strange cause during the day it's fine, 5 hours of screen on over 12 hours of stanby.
does anybody experienced the same?

Use Greenify to better manage background appliciations. If you have root, there's a lot of XPOSED modules that would assist in maximizing performance and battery life by limiting background applications, and Greenify will become more powerful.

I do not have root. I think Greenify couldn't help 'cause the apps actually draining battery are amazon's or system apps too, and they can't be stopped or halted. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Well Greenify is wonderful in general. Everyone should use Greenify IMO. But you are correct in that Greenify cannot hibernate system apps without root.
Charged my phone last nite took of charge around 22:00 checked it around 730am still 100% great standby not sure about aeroplane mode.
I have a SM-T800 on CM12.1 that averages a current drain of around 60 mA during deep sleep. I also have a OnePlus One that averages around 9 mA during deep sleep.
I'm using Battery Monitor Widget Pro with the "Android mA" setting to get my readings on the SM-T800.
Obviously, there's quite a difference there. The SM-T800 draws almost 7x as much current while it's doing nothing - no screen on time.
It makes me think that there must be something I can do to reduce the current drain, especially with a rooted device. But, I haven't been able to figure out what.
Has anyone been successful getting their battery drain lower? If "yes", what have you done?
Thanks,.

Did you forget the thread you made 2 weeks ago.

John.
Yeah, @Tinderbox (UK), but since the title was messed up I didn't think folks were looking/responding/searching to the older thread.
I think this is still something we can all benefit from, if someone has figured out a way to get our power consumption down. And if someone does respond back to this thread, other folks will be able to find it when they search now.
I use Euphoria OS and debloat it, that gives me a few weeks of standby if it's just sitting on a shelf. Ensure you delete Trebuchet (replace with Nova/Apex/etc) as it sucks a huge amount of CPU power when idle.
If you can run without GApps you'll maximize the savings.
As i said last time my T800 only used 1-2% in 16hours what ma does that work out too, the battery is 7900mah
7900mah/100 =79/16*2=9.8mah
Every time you install an app, it can make an huge difference, if it stops your tablet from sleeping.
You need to check your wakelocks to see which apps are keeping your tablet from going into deep sleep, auto check for emails, sync, alarms will cause your tablet to come out of deep sleep.
John
Thanks, @Tinderbox (UK).
As a test, I decided to wipe out my current installation, and just load the latest Nvertigo SM-T800 ROM and the very minimal nano Open GApps. I had to load a few minor things beyond that to get functional (KeePass Droid, Opera, MyBackup Pro, Wakelock Detector). I disabled all Google account sync items.
I disabled Trebuchet wake-ups, and set autostart off (Thanks, @fraser.dk)
I'm still seeing about 1% drop every 4-5 hours.
Nothing stood out from Wakelock detector. After 24 hours of the tablet sitting idle, the wakelocks were all less than 30 each.
Are you running a specific ROM or Kernel?
I am on the Stock UK v4.4.2 kitkat rom, I have never flashed though i am rooted.
If you are rooted, try the app in the link below, it link to XDA and you can download a version of cpu spy reloaded, it works great at spotting wakelocks it`s the only wakelock detector i use now.
I am running an Sony App that is supposed to stop all wakelocks, it`s in standby mode, you can whitelist apps if you like, I am not certain if it`s doing anything at the moment, you need root and exposed installed.
http://www.xda-developers.com/optimize-battery-life-with-this-useful-app/
A 1% drop over 5-6 hours is not bad.
John.
So i have an result on the Sony Battery App, I put my Tab S into sleep mode at approx 12:30AM it was at 69% , I woke it up at 6:50pm, it was still on 69% after 17hrs.

for me i have downgraded back to stock kitkat 4.4.2, debloated, rooted and xposed installed, and use powernap, i can use the tablet all day and still have between 45% - 60% battery left depends on if i am playing games or not... i have tried so many apps and custom roms in lolipop and none of them have good battery life....
PowerNap which is the Sony app i use, only reduce battery drain in sleep mode, by stopping all wakelocks, it does not reduce the power that games or other high drain app require, so how does you battery last longer, how much power were you loosing overnight when you tablet should have been sleeping it must have been immense.

on kitkat i had no major battery drain, i just like having powernap on my device... on LP like i say even just using the tab battery would drain like 1% every min... just doing typical web use... i have tried everything to get good battery life on LP but nothing works for me at least.. but with KK i have no issues...
A lot of people say they have had no problems with lollipop, but there is an significant number that have reported problems after upgrading, I decided to stick with kitkat and await android m.
1% a minute just browsing that`s bad.

I installed the Canadian stock KK ROM (T800XXU1ANJ6_T800XAC1ANI1_HOME.tar.md5) onto my US SM-T800, and it's boot-looping.
I thought I should be able to load the Canadian version without any problem.
Is there a way to turn the tablet off when it is bootlooping? I don't want the battery to drain while I'm downloading another ROM.
Try this to stop boot loop.

What do you do to prevent OTA updates? I have TWRP installed via the All-in-One Auto Root.
If you are rooted you will not get ota updates, if you are not freeze the updater an tab s owner did that with an app called "package disabler" it works without root but the free version keeps being removed from google play store, the full version is £2 (£1.50) just reduce.

@Tinderbox (UK) WHAT KITKAT ROM YOU ARE USING ????
stock UK kitkat rom v4.4.2, Lollipop has been out for my T800 10.5" for an couple of months, but it is full of bugs, and quite a few people have went back to kitkat.
Kitkat has been solid for me, I ran it for 164 days continually, I never rebooted or shutdown in that whole time, no problem at all.

Been poking around here and reading all the posts that people had mentioning battery life on stock/cm11. Is battery life really that good? I find myself trying everything possible (including hardly using the device, turning brightness all the way down, turning off bluetooth & Dynamic perspective) and I find that my phone is dropping like a brick. I can have the phone lose %s in front of me just having the screen open for a few minutes doing nothing else.
I even have two apps to optimize/kill all other apps and I'm finding that this phone is dying faster than a t-mobile pre paid LG L90 I was using prior. I just don't see how people with stock and all the features on are getting more than 5 hours battery life tops. This phone dies while you use it on the charger, which is a first from any phone I've ever used.
How do your experiences stack up? Do I just have a bad unit? Really considering going to cm11 now (really wanted to like Fire OS).
You must have something wrong with the phone. I have had Samsung S3's and S4's and the Fire is far and away the best I have experienced for battery life. I am getting close on two days on a full charge although I do not use it a great deal for voice calls.

Are you keeping Dynamic perspective off with a low brightness instead of auto? Don't see how two days is possible unless you absolutely never used the device. I can lose like 10% an hour just on the browser reading text sites.
Fire has the best battery life of any android phone I've owned. I'm on fire os with a different launcher and I have dynamic perspective on (not for home screen obviously). I'm also using auto brightness. I'm rooted with gapps installed. I get great standby time and even in use its good. You should get gsam battery monitor and see what's going on, although I think you might have a broke unit.
Here is a picture from Gsam (I don't have my phone rooted). I think this is pretty bad for only 3:28hrs of screen on time and that was with the screen at the lowest brightness, not on auto. For app usage I have 7% coming from a game I was playing, but the rest of the drain is coming from system and kernel. Would really like to see another users stats with similar screen on time, as I'm pretty sure I could completely kill this phone's battery in 4-5 hours just using silk browser on Reddit.

On the off chance that you or anyone else can help me understand what's going on I ran a ~10% drain test and made a picture including information from WakeLock Detector and GSam. This drain seems very bad considering the screen was only on for a total of 16 minutes and I lost 8% power.

Your phone isn't going into deep sleep. It's hard to determine exactly what's going on there but if you download kernel adiutor (yes, that's the spelling) you'll see its locked at 300mhz most of the time. I know it sounds crazy but have you rebooted? That can often sort out a misbehaving app. Are you rooted? If so deploy greenify.

5 hours of "screen on time" is solid, the combined time incl. standby, etc. is of course much longer. He didn't know how to interpret the statistics from the device, it was a misunderstanding.

That kernel app won't help battery life but it will show you how long you spend in deep sleep.
As for greenify, you should greenify all the Google apps. I actually greenify everything except sms app, browser, phone and alarm apps.
Also, this could possibly be some kind of location based frippery. Turn location services off or onto battery saving mode if only temporarily. And turn off auto sync if it's on.
Ever since I updated to 8.1.0 with December security patch, I've noticed my battery draining faster than normal. I was getting 4-5 hours of SOT with around 45-50% battery left. This was after being off the charger for 12-16 hours. Now I'm getting about half the SOT at similar numbers. Anyone have any ideas?

Excuse my stating the obvious, but you need to find what process or app is using the battery. You should be able to get a rough idea just using the new features under Settings>>Battery. It will identify which apps are using the most juice. Run the phone in Safe Mode to see if your battery life goes back to normal. It could also be a service like Google Play Service which sometimes wigs out and starts chewing battery. Are you rooted? If you need more detailed information there are battery drain apps available to help isolate the problem (BBS and GSam). These apps require root to give the best results.

Not rooted and currently locked. I've downloaded GSAM and have adb permissions and it simply says things like Chrome, RCS Phone and Play services. If you see from the photos below you can see what I'm talking about. Chrome currently isn't that bad, but yesterday and the past couple days it's been like 9% or more of the battery.

Two things: I've never seen phone or kernel use that much battery. On one page phone usage is 33 seconds, yet it used 9% ? I think RCS is running the background all the time. See if you can toggle it to not run in the background under Settings>>Apps>. High kernel I'm guessing is a kernel wakelock or multiple. You've probably loaded app(s) that are creating the problem, but you need to find out which one is causing the wakelocks. There is a wakelock detector "lite" app that doesn't need root but I don't know how well it works. I know the root version works well. Lastly, on the first screenshot with the battery, scroll to the bottom of the page and see which apps are listed there. I'd be willing to bet if you ran the phone in Safe Mode, your battery drain would disappear, meaning your user apps are causing it.

Well in safe mode my drain is gone so I'm not sure which app is doing it, but to directly answer your question about the RCS it is an overall app meaning it is related to several Google play services. I'll upload a photo of it. I have to reboot into normal mode.
Edit: I'm wrong about that it was the play services.. I'll have to start uninstalling the apps to determine which one is draining the battery I guess.

RCS can be a real battery hog, but I don't know why. I don't have RCS on AT&T. Do you use Messages as your primary SMS? Open Settings>>Advanced and see if you can toggle off "Enhanced Features". Open properties and check if it is using battery optimization. If it is not, set Messages to battery optimization. You can always turn these back on later if the battery drain remains.
My battery life has been restored to pretty much the same as it was with 8.0. I also noticed poor battery life after installing the 8.1 update, even though they changed the way battery life is estimated with this update (supposedly). Something just felt off, but now everything feels great! I am fairly certain what changed is installing the Greenify Magisk module and/or the Google play services doze module (this enables battery optimization on the Google play services app). Not sure which one really made the difference because I installed them at the same time. However, there is definitely a major difference!!

In my experience that's really good.
Before 8.1 I noticed about 11% per hour during screen on use and about 0.33% per hour while on stand by in my pocket or a little bit better if it's just sitting on my night stand not moving while I'm sleeping (I think doze is more extreme in that situation) which seems to match what you are getting. Based on that screen shot I think that's like 8 hours screen on time over like 35 hours for a full charge. I've done a little bit better but not much. That's excellent battery life.
Since 8.1 it has dropped. Best now is maybe 7 to MAYBE 7.5 hours over maybe 26-28 hours. In my experience battery life always drops after an update but this case is far from the worst. I remember when my Nexus 5 updated from KitKat to Lollipop. The battery drop was awful and to make matters worse the battery life of the Nexus 5 was pretty bad to begin with.

So in my last reply I thought I was wrong about RCS Phone app being a conglomerate of several apps in the phone. For some reason I couldn't find the information I needed at that time. I wiped my phone and started over after posting this thread. I was trying to isolate the misbehaving app. I thought it might have been greenify actually, but no the drain has returned to a lesser extent though. Here's some photos of this RCS app from GSAM.

I'm not sure what is causing the drain at this point. I've installed Better Battery Stats to locate the wakelocks so I can ignore them through ADB.

Have you tried disabling RCS ? (Post #6). BBS is good for idle drain, active drain not so much. It's best run overnight without touching the phone for 8 hours or so. Pick the phone up in the morning and create/save a log file as quickly as possible. Post the log to the BBS thread if you need help deciphering.
