Hi everyone, i am facing some HUGE battery drains when i am over a 3G network.
I am currently using a Stock ROM 2.2 (JPS i guess),but as soon i turn the 3G on,my battery does not last 10 minutes.
I started looking over a battery replacement,and i´ve found all those :
Ebay Search
I want to know if you guys can tell me which would be a better alternative for a compatible battery. Also,if you guys already experienced this battery drain and were able to fix it somehow.
Thanks in advance.

if u take option 4 try indroid v6 ( u find it a development page 6 ) best rom i ever tried (the developer stopt making this rom so deleted the kernel list the rom is stil their but u need to flash a kernel if u want to overclock it otherwise its just ur normal speed ) ( btw. sorry for the bad english xP )
After 1 year and an half some months ago i faced the same problem, so i bought a new battery on ebay (http://cgi.ebay.it/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemVersion&item=110861143398&view=all&tid=834148161001) but i still had a short battery life on 3G/2G and i thught the problem was the ruined battery (it arrived in terrible conditions with cracks etc...) so i bought this extended battery: http://www.ebay.it/itm/261029030204...X:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649#ht_1965wt_1029 . It didn't arrive yet but someone that bought it can tell me if it works better than the original one or not?
After almoste 2 and a half year of service my battery died in peace
so I begon the search for a new battery and found this battery pack on e-bay
I'm using these battery's for about 2 weeks now and I have to say I'm very satisfied
They last for about 3 day's (mobile data constantly connected, wifi for about 1 hour turned on and some pictures)
I definitely recommend this battery pack to al of you

satyamsit..Have you got your new battery? Actually I also need some advice..badly need a new one as it supports only 4-5 hours with light usage (currently using stock battery though...2 years old..)...
Hi! Guys, Well I bought my Note 2 in November 2012 with Multi Window update already Installed. Everything was So smooth and awesome until the Christmas update in India. My battery started draining comparatively fast but still not a huge change. But handset became little slow. That I consider Negligible. But then come the Jan update which I feel was quickly done to rectify that "root permission by default issue" like in S3. And after that am facing Issues like fast battery drain like previously when I used to sleep my battery drop by 1% only but for same amount of time when I check on waking up it had gone down by 7-8% and haven't installed any new apps so far.
But the biggest issue I face is that Note 2 won't charge sometimes then I have to restart my mobile and then it charges again and it happens quite often. Like I will face this 3-4 times in between 10 cycles of charging.
My Note 2 is not rooted for now.
Also a issue I have noticed that sometimes my camera images becomes corrupt on its own. This happened only 2 times though.
So, guys do share your advice/views on this.
Thanks
Also I have noticed that some times blue led blinks on its own. without any notification. And Smart alert doesn't go off, faced this rarely though.

You can TRY flash the latest FIRMWARE using ODIN... I'm not sure whether it will solve the battery drain issue but you cab try, but I personally think it's not too big difference...
For the battery drain issue, here is my suggestions:
1. Flash CUSTOM KERNEL, do undervolting your device, which I believe will significantly reduce the power usage...
2. Try use ONE POWER GUARD apk, I optimize the kernel and CPU, and other stuffs (Wi-Fi, 3G...) It's available in Google Play.
3. (I think you really need this if your battery is behaving as you mentioned) Do battery calibration, download BATTERY CALIBRATION in Google Play, charge your phone to 100%, open the app and tap BATTERY CALIBRATION. After that drain your battery until it switch off automatically, and charge your phone to 100% again in off mode...
And I'm so sorry to tell you that you need ROOT access then you only can try these solutions...
I also had battery drain issue before, but I found out that if you use all my suggestions, the battery life does INCREASE!
I flashed Perseus Kernel and undervolted my device using SET CPU... Battery drains about 6-8% in an hour with my Wi-Fi ON, Auto Brightness, and without turning off the screen to surf the WEB!
After that, I found out that my battery also drains about 7-10% after a whole night deep sleep, when I wake up in the morning.
I found the second solution, which is using the ONE POWER GUARD. Now, the battery life IMPROVES EVEN MORE! Now when I wake up to check my device, a whole night sleep is just draining 2-3% the most!
Thirdly, I accidentally found the Battery Calibration app in the Google Play...
I tried that but no difference, since you only need to use it when your battery starts to have problem (Others comment)
You can try this, I saw many good feetbacks from many users that it helps...
Now, I open my Wi-Fi all the time with Auto Brightness. I enjoy my music, video, web ever day. I finished charge my phone in 9 am yesterday, and now, I still have 51% to use XDA app to write this post Amazing isn't it!
ROOT YOUR PHONE, IT DEFINITELY WORTH TO SAVE YOUR BATTERY BY USING THESE SOLUTIONS... (My Opinion)
TRY THEM OUT BRO! GOOD LUCK

Thanks a lot for your suggestions.Will definitely gonna try these. And will surely root my phone once I get proper time to perform this ..
Yep I also think that these are cause of new kernel which samsung released hurriedly.
Will Contact Samsung and see what they gonna say.
And I checked my battery drain today with wifi & 3g off, Screen rotation off, sync disabled,location disabled,All motion disabled, pen detection battery save on but still ate my 5% of battery that too in sleep mode. Samsung's New updates have lot of bugs.
will root my mobile and will see how it performs. Thanks again for your valuable suggestion.
Ps;- I have also added some forgotten issues in my original post.

A lot of people complain of battery drain with their latest updates. I'm personally not too happy with it, but my device still lasts a whole day. I'll give Samsung another update to fix the issue. If they don't, I'm going back to 4.1.1 because I never had any issues there.
I've done a hard reset and nothing. Next time I'll try clearing all data and everything off of my storage and we'll see. Hopefully Samsung will fix this.

Indeed Samsung's new update has numerous bugs, hope they will fix it soon. 4.1.1 was Flawless.
And I doubt that clearing all the data will help as battery drain will be related to the new kernel and OS.
Let's see when will Samsung gonna release there new update to fix these issues.
I flashed the new MA6 French firmware, seems many MODs and Custom ROMs are released/updated based on this firmware...
I will see how it goes, I still using Perseus kernel, and ONE POWER GUARD.
So far, the results are not sure because now I have only tested it for 2 hours...
Hope it doesn't drain much battery... :laugh:

Maybe you can state all of your issues, I will try to help :victory:
I'm always sensitive to my device, every time when I feel that battery drains faster than before, I will always find out what was the problem that caused battery drains...
It's kinna pain in the ass to see battery drops faster than the first time I used the device.
So far, those suggestions that I've provided are my "BEST" solutions. (My opinion)
I will also continue to monitor my device after flashed the new MA6 French firmware...
I will see how is the results and share my experiences to you all (For those who would like to listen... If I am wrong, please don't blame me and I'm sorry)

Same with me, it pinches me a lot to see my battery draining faster than before. And even I try to keep Hawk's eye on what's gulping my battery but so far I ll only blame it on new official samsung kernels.
But Well I guess Samsung has heard the cries of people and today I received two updates(OTA) mentioning Stability update. Hope this fixes this battery drain and other bugs. Also, now they included Google Play Music App in the update.
And after 4 hours of the update, battery life, I feel that it still draining quite fast but will test it in 2-3 days to be sure. Will update after few days of usage.
And thanks again for taking time to share your suggestions
Looks like the update was kinda dissapointed... It is quite battery draining after a day...
But I did try battery calibration as my solution, looks like is kinna sweet.
I charged my phone until 100% full this morning 11am and did battery calibration, now I still have 72% after listening music, surfing facebook, instagram, and twitter, with Wi-Fi on all the time and Auto Brightness on...
Anyone tried anything else?

I just upgraded my sofware from 4.1.1 to 4.1.2 France rom. Factory wipe before and after upgrade and first thing noted battery drain. I would specifically note SCREEN ON is eating my battery. 19 hours max i could get which comparing to old rom was day and half with exact same apps and settings.Who faced the same thing and who managed to resolve it?

Yep new updates doesn't resolve battery drain issue very much but its still better than before. During my sleep for around 8 hours, battery drain was just 2%, I was so happy but during normal usage, I still feel battery drain is little on higher side. I guess new updates do increase standby time but while on load it just doesn't performs like it used to be on 4.1.1.
That's sweet, you manage to get a lot of juice by those calibration. Currently Charging my phone and will see how it performs after a full charge cycle.

Well, 4.1.2 do drains a lot of juice from battery when compared to 4.1.1. Almost every Note2 has been plagued with this after updating to 4.1.2. That's kinda shame for Samsung that their new updates are battery juice guzzler.
And to resolve this battery drain issue you can wait for samsung to fix this in new updates or you can root and then install custom kernels and roms. And also please go through takumibunta's posts above, He shared very nice points to resolve battery drain issue.
have any of the ones who updated checked for sensors of movement and like that? i updated to avoid the SDS but after the first day I noticed that my phone was draining faster. I checked some things and some of them have been changed with the update (movement sensors is the only one that i can remember now) and now it last the same than before with some apps more such as xda app which it is said that drains also some battery
Hope it was just that the issue good luck!

Hi bro, I did some research before. 8 out of 10 people suggested do a battery calibration after flashing a new ROM. Well I tried and I think the results are good. I upgraded/flashed my firmwares four times since my first purchase. And I noticed it ate my battery when I flash a new firmware.
I did a battery calibration, it managed to hold more than 24 hours. I'm sorry I can't share my battery stats now because I just did calibration again to monitor my battery again so that I can ensure the accurate and 'real' result.
I'll keep you posted, let's see how the device go. Anyway, I still using a custom Kernel, did under-volt and using the ONE POWER GUARD app...
And 1 question, is your phone using all stock settings, ROM, and KERNEL??

Oh yeah I almost forgot to share with you guys.
I found an app called Android Tweaker. It is free from market. But I managed to get a PRO versions which contains full functions.
For details just refer the Google Play's descriptions...
Back to topic, I used this app to do some tweaks on the battery section which are increasing the Wi-Fi scan interval and Increase Deep Sleep Battery Life...
I will see is it able to push my battery saving 'limit' even LOWER. Now I'm still charging my phone. I will wipe my battery stats and monitor again... It takes time, and I hope it will show more significant result of maintaining battery life.
Try this app with CAUTION! It might cause BOOTLOOP or get STUCK at Samsung logo!
DO A NANDROID BACKUP BEFORE USING THIS APP! JUST IN CASE. I HAVE WARNED YOU ALL...
See you guys soon...

Lets first all agree in one thing to narrow down the source of the drainage. Is it the SCREEN ON is the eating your battery?
To answer your question im in stock rom and stock kernal with cf root only.
I know there are methods by using custom kernals and undervolting and supported apps.
Honestly I prefer to stable my stock rom and kernal battery usage first to last my battery more than 24 hours. So basically I like to work on stock because the majorty of the phones users are stock.
One thing I can try is battery calibration. Can you tell me the process?

Ok.
There is 2 options for your case.
Since you are using stock ROM & KERNEL, with ROOT access,
First option, I suggest you to use the ONE POWER GUARD app... The latest version is stable and there is a battery calibration function in the options.
Second option, download 'battery calibration' in the Google Play. Just for simple battery calibration only...
I STILL RECOMMEND ONE POWER GUARD. IT CAN OPTIMIZE YOUR KERNEL, ROM, WI-FI, 3G AND I/O SCHEDULER SO THAT TO MAINTAIN BATTERY LIFE. IT'S A NICE TRY.
Here is the step (The developer recommend us to follow these steps but not necessary)
THE FIRST AND SECOND STEP IS THE BATTERY CALIBRATION PROCESS
1. CHARGE your phone to 100%
2. Click on battery calibration button first (battery calibration app or ONE POWER GUARD app), then only plug off your charger.
THE THIRD AND FORTH STEP ARE NOT NECESSARY TO PERFORM, I TRIED AND I SUGGEST YOU TO DO THESE AS THEY CAN ASSURE YOUR BATTERY ACHIEVES THE MAXIMUM PERFORMANCE.
3. Drain your battery until it shut off completely, until you cannot switch on your phone...
4. CHARGE your phone again until full, without switching on your phone...
(Some people recommend to charge 4/5 hours to 'heat' the battery chemicals, I just forward their messages, I am not understand why to do that)

You are welcome. I understand how it feels when your battery is draining like hell. I will also try new things. Who knows? Maybe will find out something interesting
I am now trying the new app called Android Tweaker. So far, after my device is fully charged, I 'Skype' with my friends about 1 and a half hour, using XDA app about 1 hour, 'whatsapping' and watching music videos. They drained about 21% of battery in 5 hours. Unfortunately I rebooted my device to flash something and my battery stats had reset, it became inaccurate.
Looks like I have to wait until next round fully charge then I can make sure is the Android Tweaker helps me to reduce more battery usage.
But so far, I deep sleep my device about
6 hour. And I made several calls about 30 mins of total time. And I did set an alarm, I was too tired and I didn't hear it. The music was replaying about 30min Haha so embarrassing Now I still have 53% battery and I completed my charge at 2am in the morning.
According to my rough calculation, I have used my note 2 more than 11 hours (Including all the activities I mentioned above, and deep sleep time) ADD: Wi-Fi on all the time, motion on, and auto brightness on.
Looks like quite OK for me. But I still want to take a few days to observe few times so that I can provide a more accurate result to you all.
THANKS FOR YOUR APPRECIATION AND I WILL DO MY BEST. I'LL KEEP YOU POSTED BRO.

Hi everybody...I have this phone and I have a problem.When I charge the phone up to 100% battery and then take it from the charger,battery drops to 99 or less without phone usage...And when I go to sleep and then wake up,the phone lost about 10-15 percent...Can somebody plesase help me?
Check what's keeping your phone awake during idle, "wakelock detector" and "better battery stats". Though you need root for these. You've nor given us any details of what your phone is and what ROM?? Try searching for threads on how to calibrate your phone battery.
Ohh sorry...My phone is S4 mini GT-I9195 LTE....I have stock android 4.4.2 kitkat...I have already calibrated battery and bought new battery...But same problem...
Will be an app causing your phone to wake

Not always the case... Depends when and where your phone was made. Could be a faulty kernel or motherboard but it also could be an app or a setting on your phone or an unclean install. Have you always suffered this issue?
I got phone about 3 weeks ago...and the battery was very bad so i bought new one.I also tried CM 12.1 but the phone is heating in unnormal way but the battery there is better...
You have problems with motherboard. Go to service center to replace it on waranty.
Powered by CM12.1
But my phone isnt on waranty...i got it used haha....ahh nvm,i will live with that problem.thanks for help!
Bad luck then. Normal consumption for our device is 0.2 - 0.3 % per hour in stand by.

How long does yours battery last with some normal usage?
Almost 3 days with moderate usage.

Your best bet seeing as unless you pay for a new motherboard is to try one of the battery drain fix kernels on here. Though I think you may be limited to certain compatible ROMs.
Why are you not staying on cm 12.1? For me it's amazing, i observed at least 100% more battery efficiency than stock (4.2.2). I also observed the same problem with high temp too. But i think we can't have it all. When i play games and the outside temperature is about 35 celsius, i do not expect anything less, because this mobile is not designed for this android version. I think that's reasonable and i finally can use my mobile with a joyful way without having my mind always on the battery stats!
