Nope. If your Maps is turned on, that's when GPS kicks in. If you GPS was to be on and triangulating everytime from boot, your battery will finish with 1 and a half hours!

tq so much
I've been try to extend the life of my battery, and one of the things I have done is set the SETTINGS/WIFI/ADVANCED "keep WIFI on during sleep" to "never".
I make this change, but most times when I go back into the settings later on, it's changed back to "Always"
Anybody offer a clue as to why this might be happening?
Thanks.

no idea mate it shouldn't do as i have mine set to never and it stays like that, have you been flashing ROM's or anything like that maybe that could explain it!
No, not really.
The only thing I've done is rooted it. Apart from that, It's still got stock Samsung Rom on it.
Just checked again, and even tried setting it to "only when plugged in, but after 15 mins or so, it's back to "always" again.

For anyone else who might come across the same issue.
After doing a factory reset, and putting apps back on one at a time, I found out it was DoubleTwist Airsync, that was changing the "WIFI sleep" option.
Apparently, the developer knows this, but wants it to work that way.
So it's now gone for me
But you won't lose too much battery on an 7 hr sleep with the always on setting.
I go to sleep with my S3 on 98% and wake up with 92-94% battery left even with received messages from 3 email accounts and other notifications.

I keep mine on always. I lose 3% during an 8hr sleep and it'll automatically connect to my carrier data when my network is not in range. Sure beats turning it off and on a handful times a day.
Weird is that WiFi is active in either option you shoose during sleep. Even if you choose NEVER, open your battery use stats and you'll see that WiFi was active all the time during sleep. I cannot understand why is this issue so underrated here on XDA forums. Or is it some kind of misinterpreting from my side???

Yup afaik, choosing never will produce a wakelock to check the phone state and keeping it on will cause it to constantly scan even if connected to a network. Both choices will eat up battery.
I see many threads suggesting to just manually turn it off, preventing scanning, wakelocks and syncing all together.

So it is normal that if i choose Never in wifi sleep policy phone, i find the wifi always on in battery stats? This question is not so clear...
Is there any explanation of wifi toggles by author... Google?

I'm not so sure if you will see wifi in the battery stats as I think wifi processes are part of the Android system in settings >battery.

i also have this problem with omega v34..i hope it will be fixed
I use the app keep Wifi alive. It pings my server to ensure I don't lose a connection. I the only thing I see missing with it is that my email sync stops until I go to mobile data.

I have the international version and the battery drain in standby is a big problem. I lose about 1% every 5-10 minutes. I'm connected to a Wi-Fi network. I've been using GSam Battery Monitor to locate the problem. I saw Facebook woke up my phone for about 500 times and I deleted it. However, I'm still experiencing this issue. In 5 hours Google services woke up my phone 47 times (in included packages it says: Google Contacts Sync; Network Location) and Maps woke it up for about 20 times.
I'm rooted and I'm running stock (LH1). No custom kernels or modems. What's the problem?
EDIT: Also, the drain is happening only when I'm connected to a Wi-Fi network (I noticed it's much slower while I'm on mobile data)

I have deleted the Facebook app so there is no need for that. However, I deactivated auto sync for contacts (I left it on for calendar, Gmail, Drive and Chrome). I don't see the auto sync settings for Maps. (?)

This doesn't solve the battery drain, it makes Cell standby look normal in Battery stats.
You got Location turned on ???

I have the Location and Google search option turned on, but GPS is turned off.
Location is a known source of battery drain .

Still think this is a deep sleep issue, also check if Wireless is set to always on

I turned it off now to see if it works. However, my friend has also got Galaxy S3 with Location turned on and he isn't experiencing any battery drain (but that could be because he hasn't got the same apps as me).

It is. I think an app might be causing this (although none of the tracking apps showed it).

BBS = BetterBatteryStats.
It's an app which displays wakelocks. Widely used to resolve phone wake problems.

I'll try to find that thread (could you please link it if it's not a problem.
I've been using BBS for quite some time actually, but I was unable to detect the problem. I've also been using GSam Battery. But what I've noticed is that this drain happens when I'm connected to a Wi-Fi network or at least it's bigger then.
Maybe Google's location service can be a problem even though the GPS is OFF

I've turned it off and as far as I've seen it didn't fix the issue. However, I will leave my phone for a couple of hours tomorrow to see again. There are apps for which I have to have it turned on (Foursquare, Maps etc.) so that's a bummer.
Even I am having the same problem of battery drain. Will it get fixed if the change the battery considering I have two 2 Galaxy S3 with the same problem of battery drain.?
Also I want to root my phones, but is there a way to root the phone without the warranty being void?
I've been experiencing some minor battery drain issues and what I found is that if I log out of all the apps I'm logged in to, my battery drain is significantly better. Not a perfect solution but I'm slowly figuring out which one is causing issues.

Do you have the "Cell Standby Fix" ? I doubt ithat t's a matter of location!!

I've never had this issue on any ROM I've ran on my OnePlus X. And I've tried all the ROMs available on XDA plus some more.

This.
Even you turn off the Wi-Fi, the hardware is still on and searching, just it won't connect to any network.
But FYI since Android 4.1 there is low Wi-Fi battery consumption feature that phones use and if you are not connected to any network while Wi-Fi on, it will use maybe 1% battery overnight. I don't ever turn off my Wi-Fi because I want to connect to know network as soon as I am in the range and have the same battery as turned off.

Maybe you are affected with malware. Check for monkey test and ikeyboard in apps.. Or use stubborn trojan killer app or malwarebyte app to verify.. Had the same problem in samsung a3 solved by rooting and usong these apps.. Hope this solves ur problem.

Hah. No need for that. You can try flashing only your ROM and installing nothing and enable the wifi always scanning and you will see wifi is always on.

Yes, is related to Google location service.
In OxigenOS you can turn off Wifi Scanning, but after that the wifi will be much slower in the connecting process.
In HydorgenOS there is no option to turn off Wifi Scanning.
I prefer to have wifi scanning active even if it will use more battery. On my phone, in 3 days, the Wifi shows 1% battery usage.
This is a serious problem. I have turned off my bluetooth and also the android wear app shows bluetooth disconnected. But still i am getting each and every notification. Please help on this matter.
