This isn't 100% what you were looking for but you may start with it and look where your problems come from.
A list of tools which will analyze your drain

Ever since installing google+ to my phone, ive noticed unusual amounts of battery drain coming from 'android system'.
'android system' started a wake lock of about 11 hours starting about the time i would be checking my google+ and/or texting (im pretty sure texting didnt cause this wake lock tho).
i do have auto photo sync on, but im positive nothing new was syncing.
anyone else experiencing something similar?
Most of the time I freeze it with Titanium when I'm busy and won't be using it because it does use ram cache a lot.......I do the same for the Gallery app and Google maps. It's quick, saves battery, and doesn't waste my ram or cpu usage.
i use Google + excessively and it doesnt drain my batttery

Yeah you do!LOL,jkjk(I like most of your shares actually)
I agree tho and really don't think its killing my battery at all. After killing the pull down animation and switching to a solid black background from a live one, my battery life has been the best its been in awhile.

If you sync images then yes
I had sync images turned on and G+ drained my battery syncing all of my photos on my phone to G+. Once it was done then batter went back to normal but it drained the battery for 2 solid days.
Hi, I have a few questions regarding various wakelocks that I hope somebody will be able to advise on. Whether they are normal or not Im not sure.
I'm in the UK, my phone is a standard GS3, ie not routed or anything. I had battery life problems but have used Better Battery Stats and GSAM Battery Monitor and found the problem so now all is well and the battery is lasting exceptionally well indeed.
Whilst spending hours finding the original battery drain problem and removing the rogue apps, I came across these and just wondered; are they normal, is there anything I can do to improve them?
1) Android system - Seems to be causing quite a lot of wake locks, particularly running a lot are the Accelerometer, gyroscope & light. What exactly are they, and is it normal for them to be running a lot and cause wakelocks?
2) Facebook - I have turned sync frequency and notifications to 'Never' within the app, and set to not sync contacts, yet its still always in my list of running applications and causing wakelocks. Why? Is that normal, and what can I do to stop it? I only want it to turn on and refresh when I use it (very rarely) - which is what I have set it to. But it keeps running and starting itself even after I force stop it.
Thanks, John
Anybody able to advise? Particularly point 1) above.

1) Can you post here the "Dump" file from BetterBatteryStats ? You can generate it with BBS > Options > Dump to file
2) Facebook is known to drain battery with background daemon and services. Try using another Facebook'apps even if it's not the genuine one.
Isnt' cross-posting generally not allowed?
Thanks lelinuxien52, yes I will do that.
Szadzik, what do you mean by cross-posting?

Ahh just googled it, yes sorry I didn't realise.
Hello everyone,
Today I noticed that my Galaxy S3 had huge battery drain.So I used GSAM battery from playstore in order to find out which app drains my battery and CPU Spy PLUS to check deep sleep time. Unfortunately I could not find anything helpful. BUT I noticed that every time I unclok my screen, juice defender icon disappears and appears again.So I checked its full log and I found out some errors. I use Android Revolution HD v18+Stock/Perseus Kernel v30.1+JB Domination Theme v1.5.5.Screenshot is attached.Any help would be appreciated.
JD drains battery well known multiple posts on the subject .

Try uninstalling and reinstall
I have tried install/uninstall already but nothing happened.I have also searched but I could not find the same error..

What applications running and all the applications in battery stats
Dont use task killers.
That is a normal thing, the stats show actually what you were doing and what was using the battery it does not means that the 45 % of the battery was used by multimedia, if is a memory problem were you stop using multimedia and it keep draining the battery you can try the app greenify from the app store, this app freezes or put to sleep the apps using memory, but it does not uninstall them or freezes them so you can use them at any time. it really worked for me.:good:

I have a pretty bad battery drainage problem. Multidp and 12_hsic wakelocks are prevalent. The most noticeable is the Phone app waking up the most.
Steps I've taken to combat the High battery drainage
Disabled Fast Dormancy
Greenified Facebook, Playstore, PlayBooks and Keep
All but contacts and chrome are checked under the autosync settings
Even tried apps like Juice Defender, but the battery drainage increased to a whole new level; deleted the app
Installed a custom kernel. Undervolted by -50mv
ROM: CrDroid
Kernel: Temasek Kernel
P.S Tried the BetterBatteryStats thread, but no one did help me there. :/ Hope I solve my problem here. Attached the idle dump.
Thanks in advance.

The Problem is The ROM , not the Phone.
Android 4.3 isn't optimized for S3 yet .
That causes Battery Drain Problems.
My Recommendation is that you search another 4.3 ROM or Downgrade to 4.2.2 or lower.
Previous post is wrong.
Your two first kernel wakelocks mean network use. Search for background sync apps, check Wi-Fi advanced settings and disable Google constant search.
Greenify all apps, except the vital ones for your usage. With paid app and xposed framework you can even freeze push message ones.
All this can be found in a couple of minutes with Google.
Some can achieve .2 %/hour in deep sleep with 4.3.
The Rom is not the culprit.
You wont get good battery life on IDLE on AOKP, AOSP or CM ROMs. No matter what you do. battery life is ok while the phone is awake but when it is in deepsleep still it consumes the battery on AOKP, AOSP or CM ROMs.

Yes i know AOSP,AOPK & CM don't have as good an idle drain as the touchwiz ROMs, but in my case we do know the reason. So it has to some other reason

Already had Google constant search disabled. And 4.3 is not xposed framework compatible. So can't use that.
And I have disabled background syncing except for chrome and contacts. It's the phone app waking up that's probably the culprit

I use xposed framework... It's compatible.
2.1.4 apk framework works well. Some people need to use SuperSu instead of super user, you can put it with a file explorer in system/app, then reboot and run, there is even a cwm zip somewhere to flash the framework directly.

i dont get it.. your battery drainage is just 1.1% / hour

Yes I know it's just 1.1% but you gotta see that this is just an idle drain. When I start using the phone on day to day basis, it doesn't even last the whole evening let alone the whole day. I'm down to 20% by mid afternoon when i unplug my phone at 8 A.M. .
Whereas when I was on stock, as the people above have said, my battery drain was around .4% and the phone used to last around a day and a half with moderate usage. Yes I know that I can never have that good a battery, but atleast I should be able to eliminate most of the wakelocks with this ROM. But the typical methods like disabling FD, greenifying apps etc etc don't seem to work.

I am on omega rom series 8.1.AOKP
My battery doesnt last a day anymore.
Phone is way faster than stock, but battery sucks.
Are there NO AOKP/CM/AOSP roms that have more stability and better juice at all?
No
