Sure would be nice to hear some of the tricks people use for saving battery life. I see plenty of screen shots showing off your battery life, not many tell how.
Please don't bash me for what I have frozen. Phone works fine for me. YMMV. You will notice that I have pretty much nothing ever syncing, that is fine with me. I am always looking for more to freeze...

I use Task Manager to kill all, almost every time I relock device.
UNDERVOLTING
3 AnTuTu's run to check if that crashes it. AnTuTu is not a good way to check for stability though, I highly recommend using your Internet browser and loading websites with your agent set to Desktop. Try scrolling while the page is still loading, and try a cluttered website filled with posts like: http://gosugamers.net/general/. Also be sure to see if your phone can wake up out of sleep!

On average I lose 1% battery a hour with screen off. In good wifi/cell reception that is.
What do you folks do?
advance task manager works great, set it up to kill all apps at screen lock
1% an hour sounds about right. I'm not sure you're going to get much better than that. You could check out the battery drainers thread for info on finding wakelocks.

Its been discussed a number of times in various battery related threads. The issue is that you end up killing a lot of tasks the phone needs, so it has to restart them all the time, which is less efficient than leaving them running. If you have a rogue app draining your battery becuase it isn't shutting down there are better ways to deal with it.
Is this 1% an hour drain with the radio on or off? Ill have to check what mine gets with it on, but when i turn my radio off i get 1% drain every 4 or 5 hours

Bro, Seems like there is cell data been transferred when your phone is with screen off.
Awake (): 5 h 43 m 57 s (20637 s) Ratio: 94.5%
Screen On (): 1 h 12 m 49 s (4369 s) Ratio: 20.0%
This should ideally be equal, if you are not listening to music or downloading something with your screen off.
Do the following :
1. Remove the apps Social Hub with titanium backup
2. Uncheck Settings > Wifi Network > Mobile networks > USe packet data
3.Uncheck Location and security > a. USe wireless networks b. USe GPS satellites
and see if you are still getting the battery drain.
4. Uncheck Accounts ans sync > a.Background data b. Auto Sync
5. Goto market settings uncheck Google Admobile ads
Check if you are still getting the battery drains.
Hope this helps!

Just wipe cache and Dalvik cache from recovery and check if you are still having drain! If not try removing all the recently installed apps and check again.I believe one of the apps is trying to sync and keeping the phone awake.
Can i do that without a root?

is it by any chance the new facebook app (looks more like the real facebook now?) I read quite many posts in regards to the partial wakelocks and the new facebook was one of them. The updated version is running a service that never lets the phone go to deep sleep. Search market for CPUspy (free) and it will show you what states your phone goes into for how long. Reset the stats before you go to sleep and wait overnight. Your phone should be around 90% or more in deep-sleep mode. If not, something does not let it go to deep sleep. I had the same problem, I'm currently running my phone for 1d6hrs with 50% of battery life still on it. I did a test and what I think based on BBS and CPUspy it was either the facebook app or SetCPU. During the night the phone was awake almost all the time along with the screen (even tho I was sleeping!). Another thing I noticed is that you have quite a high count on AlarmManager wakelock - that is a service used by many apps and that actually does not tell much unless you connect your phone to PC and extract the data from alarms. don't get confused, this is not your Alarm Clock, it's just a service that wakes up your phone at a scheduled time to check for updates. To check how long is the phone awake and difference after you've done some troubleshooting is under menu > more. It will show nice graphs.
In my case, my phone is rooted, running Criskelo v38, Siyah Kernel 2.6.7.. I uninstalled all app killers, stopped using FB app, switched off automated updates (checking if there are any updates from Market) and stopped using setCPU because Siyah 2.6.7 implemented new ondemand governor which merged ondemandX with lulzactive (not sure about the second governor now). Therefore all other governors became redundant. It sorted my problem with battery drain. Hope this helps a bit.
-EDIT-:
Sorry, Just noticed you already have CPUspy. Can you please submit a screenshot of the stats it's showing?
Btw i have the original battery with the original capacity of 1600 mAh

Thank you!
Have u tried a app call CPUSPY?
Its in the play store (android market)
That app let's u see if your phones really in deep sleep...
Hi krackerjac,
Thanks for the advice. I installed CPU Spy this morning....
1000 MHz 7% 0.35.45
200MHz 89% 6.51.47
no deep sleep, even though i didn't use the phone mch all day.
System Panel shows a 100% drop in 8 hours.
Any advice?
Thanks in advance!
It should be on deep sleep most of the time. What background apps are you running?
Sent from my LG-P999 using XDA
That's what I can't figure out. I think google sync is always on, From the Top Apps screen of System Panel, it seems that system and system processes are the highest consumers, but I'm not sure how else to tell?
Download Watchdog and see what apps are using your CPU. Also, turn off auto sync, as they might be keeping the phone awake by constantly trying to fetch new emails, contacts, etc.
Sent from my amazing G2x running Bionix Reloaded v1.4
I have Watchdog. it says Android System 5.4%, System UI 1.6%, Google Services Framework 1.0%. Everything else is below 1%
With auto-sync, is there a way to control this automatically. For example, i don't need autosync to operate between 1 and 7am, but want it to turn on again at 7am, and need it on the whole day so i can get my emails.

I don't think so, you can change the frequency of the fetching(updating) however. Or put the power control widget on your home screen and turn it on when you need to, and off when you don't.

Try the Icy Glitch Kernel and see if that helps with battery life.
Also, try the AOKP rom, its more or less the same thing as Passion, but works a lot better than Passion did, at least for me.
Ended up downloading an app called Better Battery Stats. Found that my GPS location provider was running down the battery. This was because the Beautiful Widgets was set to geolocation, and so gps was pretty much running all the time.
Much better battery life now.
Thanks for all your help!
Hi
I have a Galaxy S3 GT-I9300 running on WanamLite XXELKC V5.1.
I just put this new ROM in recently. But now I notice that my battery is getting drained faster than before. The stock battery stats shows that google services is the major contributor.
Any ideas ?
try to disable google now's features.. just open google now and then his settings..
if you have your s3 rooted, you might just delete/move the apps from /system/app folder to your sdcard,
i moved a lot of apps that were consuming battery and now its better so... just another way

Turn off WiFi location access as when that's on maps will run in background as well as network location service.
Disable apps that run all the time (facebook, Whatsapp). I use App Quarantine to do this, places a widget where you can click to disable, clock to enable +open.
Reduce auto sync apps and their frequency. I generally only have gmail auto.
Before leaving your phone to sleep for 10+ minutes, kill background processes. Majority of the time my ruining apps is ONLY Android Keyboard, (set CPU if I feel like using profiles).

All of what you said does make sense....
I don't think that any of my settings have changed after getting the new ROM... So what i am trying to understand is why Google services is suddenly eating up all my battery.....
Anyhow, somewhere someone Suggested to delete all the accounts and add them again..... I tried that and somehow today Google services doesn't seem to be there in the list of battery draining apps......
Let me Keep am eye.... Will keep you posted......

Hello there
I am aware that the Galaxy S3's battery isn't that great, but I have held an HTC One X for a while (which has an even worse battery) and it was actually much better than my S3's. The problem with the S3 is that it drains really hard while the device is actually SLEEPING. Like this morning I got up at about 9 AM and the phone was charging all night so it was 100%, so I decided to unplug the device and leave it till I got back (about 5 hours later) and it was already down to 89% or so. How does that happen? It's supposed to last much longer than that while it is sleeping, correct?
Here are some screen shots from Battery Stats Pro which I believe is the best battery application.

The developer of Battery Stats Pro is advertising another application for saving battery, I may go ahead and give it a shot but I remember trying a similar application on the HTC One X before which made things even worse.
I have been on the leaked 4.2.2 for a while now but the battery draining problem has been there ever since I got the phone, on 4.1.2, and I have tried many custom ROMs as well as deodexed 4.1.2, 4.2.1 and 4.2.2 but the problem remains, to a large extent, the same.
Does anyone know what could be causing this? I don't have local warranty because I purchased the device from abroad and I don't want to invest in another battery if it's going to be the same.
Any information and/or advice are much appreciated.
Thank you.
I forgot to mention that I have read a lot of guides regarding better battery times and modified the settings in order to achieve that, like Auto screen brightness, lowering volume, disabling touch sounds, haptic feed back, vibration, key-tap sound/vibrate and other things. I also changed Facebook's Refresh Interval settings from 1 hour (which I forgot to change) to Never; the only client that I set to Push is my hotmail account because I really need it.
Do you have a anti virus? They usually keep the four cores working all the time.

On many devices i so this and i can tell you that you need to find the problem, but if i see right just try to uninstall Facebook (one of the bigger drainer) and the test it. Any app that try to connect to internet,even if wifi or data connection is off is a battery drainer.
Thanks for your replies. No i do not have an anti virus. Yes i am using Samsung original charger which is plugged in the wall port directly. Finally i do need Facebook and wouldn't want to in uninstall it but I'll give it a shot. Would i have to remove Facebook messenger as well?
my facebook runs all the time i connect to internet! that's not a problem. if you are rooted, you can manage start up programs using es task manager for example.

i was having the same problems
i uninstalled the facebook app and just use facebook through a browser.. not that seemed to make it any better .
i also downloaded DS battery saver and set it to aggressive over night(need to manually set it every night though) .. didnt pin point the problem but stops it draining over night
@negri I did the exact same thing. I set DS Battery Saver to aggressive overnight and it works wonders, although as you said, it does not point out the problem. I am assuming, though, since all DS Battery Saver does is turn off mobile data overnight while the screen is off, maybe Mobile Data just uses a lot of battery and there's nothing we can do about it. It's either that or some applications are constantly connected to the internet all the time.
Try turning off mobile data/WiFi until you need to use it.

from another similar post > [Q] Galaxy S3 Battery drain
facebook and others app cause various wakelocks, syncs, etc, causing power consumption and battery drains. (look logs in your monitor battery stats and analysis it)
"i do using greenify too, it's better than traditional battery savers or task killers.
u can use greenify, but to use the real potential of this app, you need root to full hibernation. look the apk developer instructions and tips.
best regards"
you can try too battery saver with profile battery settings based in time or battery level scheduling.
greenify hibernate (just "zzz", not freeze or kill apps) users and system apps (system need root).

I use it 24/7 and have noticed zero difference in battery drain..due I believe to Bluetooth 4.0. Battery is so good on this phone it honestly never was even a worry for me.

Yes I do..
I started using the smart band days after the phone. So again I don't have much to compare to. I use my phone a lot for web, texting, some calls and stream music most all day. None of it on WiFi. Take it off charge at 6am. Home from work at 5pm always with over 50% battery left. Go to bed about 11pm using it all night with 25% or so.
Now you have me curious. Maybe I'll go a day or two without...just haven't ever thought about. Battery is killer.
Lifelog drains battery - yeah...
Just check Power Management and you'll see it - for me it was always "nr 1" on consumption list, above screen and I always use 70-80% screen brightness...
I'm not using lifelog anymore, I simply don't need it..
I have smartband for notifications and I'm very satisfied with it.
I even sold smartwatch when I "found" smartband.
It was sitting in box and I thought it's only for fitness...boy how I surprised when I tried it

You need to go to the logger settings and disable physical motions on phone to stop the drain. It's just for car and cycle logging anyway, which doesnt even seem to work so well.

Thank you so much, I completely missed that "hidden" page.
@Sichroteph No problem! There's quite a few hidden settings like this in sonys apps. It's always worth having a search for them.
If you are interested I spent a couple of hours building a no battery draining Tasker app that lock your phone when the smartband is too far. (root required)
It can also detect the day or night Mode for special phone actions (sound mute, dim screen light, Airplane Mode etc...)
