It's not bad. Try better battery stats to see your wake locks and cpu spy to see if your device is deep sleeping

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.

Seems like google + is the biggest battery drainer... and the ls... service whats that?

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

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
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?
Sent from my SGH-I747M using xda app-developers app
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
Re: Screen off Battery Use
Do you guys think it's normal to be unplugged for 2 hrs and be at 85%? This is without even turning the screen on.
Something is wake locking your phone.

Yep - sounds like a lot is happening on your phone. The other night I left my phone on while sleeping, and it drained from 100% to 85% over 7-8 hours.

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.

Unrooted

Buy new battery.
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.
