Running stock ICS, just noticed this today. Nothing running, I do not have sync set either... any ideas or suggestions? I apologize if this is posted already, I didn't see anything when I searched.

Download betterbatterystats from xda, just search it and you'll find it.
Android os shows you system held wakelocks, you have an app or service holding a wakelock keeping your phone from deep sleeping.

I wouldnt stress about it that much after getting over a day out of the battery.
Would be different if you had only made it for 4 hours.

With 15% of power used by screen?
That means very little screen on time so over a day isn't that good.
Look at the stats properly before you say not to worry about it.

What apps are you using, and what accounts.
Is e.g. Facebook, Skype or a Microsoft Exchange account configured?
These are known to drain battery and not necessarely under their own name.
'Android OS' means everything the battery stats program (and underlying Kernel Cgroup module) can't put it's finger on. BetterBatteryStats may help you resolve that issue, afaik it's a free APK here in the forum so you don't have to buy it.

Hello.
I'm loving absolutely everything about my s3 it's amazing.
But I have one issue, my battery life overnight.
Something is keeping phone awake!
How do I stop this?
Thank you.
Also is there going to be a fix for cell standby? Has any other phone had this cell standby issue and been fixed?

Search for betterbatterystats on xda and use that to find whatever is keeping your phone from deep sleep.

Check wifi sleep policy its by default always on turn it off it will make difference...

But his WLAN is off as you can see. I have the same problem loosing 30% over night although being in Flightmode.
Usual suspects are latitude and the system backup. But as it has been said before get BetterBatteryStats and try to find the battery hog there.
Will do thank you.
Just charging now then will check batt stats tonight.

Today I got almost 2 hours of on screen time before I hit 3% after 9 hours. So I look in battery in settings and Android System is #1 at 57%! Then screen at 20%' followed by cell standby at 9%.
What is causing android system to take up 57% and cause barely 2 hour on screen time?
I had this issue too! after a reboot i havent had this issue agin
check what google services you have auto syncing. aka g+ calender and contacts those can make it really bad.
sounds like a rogue app of some sort.

An app that misbehaves: Sync's data or runs in the background when you are not using it, wakes device during sleep (wakelock) and performs background operations. This could be any app or game you download, usually it is more common in free apps with unknown developers....make sure to check reviews before downloading.
It seems like the restart fixed it. After restart android system is 4th place at only 6%.
Its doing it again today. 67% of battery is android system.
Any help?
I have better battery stats but it's some what hard to understand.

Mobile data has been killing the battery on my AT&T Galaxy S3. I can always tell because it gets warm even with the screen off. The only way I can stop the drain is to turn off mobile data which is not a long-term fix. I can't understand why some days I get amazing battery life, and some days I get a few hours only.
Use juice defender, I've used it for years, it turns off mobile data when the screen is off and re enables it on a schedule you set. It's the only long term fix I have found. Since calls and texts come through 2g this should fix your problem.

just out of curiosity, are any of you with battery problem using a live wallpaper, or most importantly a weather live wallpaper?

Hay guys,
So for the first couple of weeks my battery life was awesome on the s3 and was going an entire day easy with like 40% at night before bed...
However now it is seriously draining fast, I go to work at 8 get home at 5 and I have about 12 percent left with moderately light use...
First thing I thought was maybe an app but in the battery section didn't show anything odd, I got betterbatterystats to see more detailed but don't know what alot of the wake locks are... Here are the screen shots any input/advice is welcomed!!!

WAKELOCKS ask in the better battery stats thread .

Have you changed the Rom? If so you need to download a battery calibrator from the store and reset the stats with it once fully charged.
You might have an app draining your battery, install free "Watchdog" app, and set it to monitor all processes, and it will sound an alarm if an app is misbehaving.
Also install cpuspy and reset the counter and then leave your phone for 30min or so, then check how much time your phone spends in deep sleep.

Thanks got cpuspy and it spend most time in deep sleep... I'm Inking now it's because at work I have bad reception if that's the cause what can I do? If anything lol...
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
If you dont use 3g or 4g for downloads, switch your phone to gsm, A stronger signal means the phone does not have to work as hard and uses less power.
Also disable account syncing, stops your phone from waking up.

Thats a rogue app causing the high android sys.
+1, I've seen this on 2 handsets.
Using GSam Battery Monitor, then clicking on app usage ->android system -> manage -> clear defaults
The above seems to stop the issue after a reboot. I've not seen it happen again since I did that.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but 9hrs and 47% left doesn't seem like a problem... if you take your phone and leave it on (with screen off) and wait until it dies then charge and turn on you will see that the "system" eats almost all your battery. There is nothing wrong with your phone unless you used it a ton and the system still eats all your battery which If that is the case and it's been 9 hours and had 47% battery then I would think you were doing MUCH better than most, imho.

I've got the same problem. Only yesterday, mine was over 65%! My phones horrible on battery life. Some things definitely up

When I click manage it won't allow me to clear defaults...
And this began at around the 50% mark and as soon as it starts my battery starts dying way quicker
Do these screen shots help?

any ideas? seems like xda needs to be manualy killed or it ends up using alot of resources in the bacground
I have seen the same on my phone, but it has not happened consistently enough for me to narrow down the possible cause...
Happened to me once so far. Charged my phone to full and went to work. I didn't use my phone for anything other than to check the time. I started noticing that the back of the phone was getting very hot, more so than when charging. I pulled my phone out and the battery was waaay down :
Hasn't happened since (fingers crossed).
Edit: I guess mine wasn't the Android system, but cell standby.

The fix for the cell standby drain is easy, see here: http://techsplurge.com/10665/solution-samsung-galaxy-s3-cell-standby-battery-drain-problem/ As for the android system drain it seems to have resolved itself. I still get alot of kernel wakelocks from bam_dmux_wakelock though
Hello there.
For the last few days, the battery of my phone is draining at an exceptional rate even without use, power saving switched on and everything else turned off.
Yesterday morning it drained 5% in 3 minutes!
Any help will be appreciated.

Any way I can test whether something is wrong with battery or software?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Please search before posting things as vague as that. No one knows anything about your problem. Are you using the phone when, or is that idle drain? Regardless of that, see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2217943. Chances are someone else has already got the same problem as you especially if it's battery - related, so please search for it.
