is this the r5a update?
I am not too sure about it.
Before the update the battery life is long but after the update, it feels like it is longer but ehhhhhhhh....
I don't know I mean it can be short or longer at times.

I often charge the edge-to-edge, maybe the battery problem is unimportant for me.

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
Sent from my SCH-I535 using Tapatalk 2
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.

It seems ok for me. The most eating up my battery seems to be cell standby
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Mines too...i even got almost 40% on cell standby...><……
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda premium
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

After about a week my battery life returned to Gingerbread levels.
I've been having the same problem (XT912) for the past couple of days. I thought maybe I was having network issues so I got a new SIM card from Verizon yesterday, and my battery lasted a long time up until a few hours ago where it started dying fast again. Airplane mode seems to make the drain subside too, but this is pretty crazy. Yesterday I was lucky to get 4 hours on a charge (without even using the phone), but since my new SIM last night I went from 10PM to like 12PM today (14 hours) and it only dropped to 80%, then a few hours to 70%, but then went to 20% within just a couple hours and it's been like that again today. I don't think it's ICS to blame, but something weird is going on for sure.
I had the same problem. I read that if you do a factory reset then it helps. At least it did for me.

Sent from my XT910 using xda app-developers app
You can search in the Play Store for apps that can calibrate your battery.
My battery is very good with ICS and I don`t have such a problems (for now).

It's not bad. Try better battery stats to see your wake locks and cpu spy to see if your device is deep sleeping
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda premium
Thanks i will update tomorrow or so...
About deep sleep i already checked vefore and it does but as for better battery status i just downloaded the app. Should i just let it installed and dont touch or do i need to run in the background?

Some parts of it need root access. But it should still give you the wake locks. Just let it run in the background and check it after a min of 5hrs
Is that good for you? That's all it matters.
It looks alright to me.
Can it be improved? Of course.

I think you have several times recharge the battery to 100% and also drain the battery until phone turn off to calibrate.

Hi, so after I updated my phone to JB 4 days ago I have noticed that my battery drains noticeably faster while I am using my phone. However my standby time is a lot better. I did a factory reset but it hasn't really helped much, I don't understand what the problem is.

Sorry about this comment, my brother originally typed it first, so I am deleted his response, because it was wrong information.
I would let your battery settle for about a week . Also try to drain your battery all the way down to zero and charge untill you get the notification about battery full. Do this a couple of times and see if it helped. Been doing this on all my phones i flashed.

So i love the new JB firmware update. But the battery drain has quite a impact and drains faster. I solved the overheating problem but all i need is help or tips to increase my battery life.
All Help is welcomed. Thanks!

If your phone is rooted, you can read this guide for advices:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1909996
Try using the Easy Battery Master.
It have a formidable option called BOOST who kills all unused apps and services every 5 minutes(need be configurated to it) and also show the remaining battery in time calculated by your current usage status. This app give me something about 2-3 hours of extra battery daily.
Thanks Guys! I will try the methods! Hopefully my stock 4.1.2 battery life will improve

I suggest getting a new battery. 2000mAh is best.

Then get a regular genuine battery.
After it's first year my battery started to last less and less. I've replaced it and currently having great battery life on CM+Dorimanx.

For genuine batt's always visit the nearest Samsung Service center and get one
Since almost all available on the net (online store's) are fake one's
