EBay app doesn't drain here either.
Install better battery stats and find out what is really causing it.

(Q) battery drain

OK, my wife has had this phone since last September and it has just recently been suffering from some very unusual battery drain. Tonight I placed a fully charged battery in it at 9:30 pm killed all the non essential apps via menu / settings / running services. And by 11:00 it was already at 50%. What could be causing this issue? It is fully stocked and not rooted. Thanks for the help

Possibly a app that u downloaded is waking it up or an update u did recently.

I'm having similar battery drain problems with my SGS2. My phone shuts down, like empty battery power, when I'm online for a few minutes or playing a game when in fact the battery still has more than 50% stored power. This started happening a few weeks ago. I didn't download or update any app before I noticed this "phenomenon".
Anyone has an idea what could be causing this battery drain? How can I resolve this?

Thee have been a few times where my battery drained overnight where it only usually goes down like 5-6%. Both times I run found out there was either a tower down nearby or they were doing work. Check an app like badass battery moniter, it gives you a rundown of apps and modem drain.

Download system panel and see what programs are eating up CPU and using data. Also consider Wi-Fi and data toggles they save a ton of battery and turning off background data. If your still have major drain issues hope got insurance...bring it down and get a new battery.

Try green power or deep sleep battery saver.
They both work well
Do these apps really work?

all they really do is shut your data off when the screen is off, which will save you some battery. but then you wont get any notifications from apps that use data i.e. email, Facebook, etc. or at least that's how it was last time i tried those apps like a year ago, maybe they've changed it.

The apps will sync, or should sync, depending on the interval you set the phone to sync. I have mine set every 15 minutes, it saves me around 10-15% battery life a day.
Depend on your settings I think, mine worked exceeding my expectations. I had the dreaded hot phone and literally 5 hours battery life. My last hope is to install a custom ROM and kernel and hope for the best, but I'm trying to stay stock as possible if I can help it. I have my fair share tinkering with custom ROMs with GNex and needless to say I'm done customizing (it's endless once you start!).
So I installed JDU just for the heck of it, lo and behold it actually works. I now get 12hrs with 15% left after a day worth of usage, browsing, lots of yelp, maps and navigation (travelling at the moment), pandora, fb, whatsapp, gosms, GNow and camera. Please note that I'm using the N4 for less than a week and still conditioning the battery, I use JDU for a full day today for the first time.
I realized that using JDU is only a temporary 'fix' until Google patch the battery issue. I hope to get 14-16hrs battery life without JDU on stock and rooted ROM. One can only hope eh..

IMS Service draining battery

Anyone have any insight or thread pointers to find out why my IMS Service is acting up... drained from 100 percent to 86 in a little over 2 hours with only 12 minutes screen time...
What to do... thanks in advance, running the Jedi Master 9 with Rom Toolbox Pro addon and the black gloss theme

Just a little more info...
nothing seemed to be happening prior to last night when I installed andromizer (tested an imei/efs backup method) and then reinstalled from TIBU my MX Player, Dice Player, and upnplay app to watch a few movies. Went to bed and woke up to my phones "100% charged alert", disconnected and went back to sleep... little over 2 hours later I wake up and im down to 86% .

Seems to be a none issue now... shut phone off and let it charge to 100 and its not there any more after 4 hours use... really not sure what happened but it seems fixed

Battery Drain

Hey everyone, I'm experiencing some pretty bad battery drain. I've had my phone off the charger for an hour and its already down to 75% and I've barely used it. I checked my battery usage and Google Services are taking up 75% of my usage. Is this normal and if not is there a fix that anyone knows of?

I would start with going over to android central and the HTC one forums, they have a sticky post about battery life here http://forums.androidcentral.com/htc-one/269518-htc-one-battery-life-stats-discussion.html
Looks like you should turn off your GPS and location, and turn off your sync. Download the gsam battery monitor. It will help you out too.
Thank youuuu

Doe anyone else notice nova launcher drains the battery quicker?

On my Samsung note 2014 and htc one whenever I have nova as my default launcher my battery always seems to drop faster, anyone else notice this?

no, I've switched a long time ago bc go launcher used to drain my battery. I get about 1% in standby per 12 hrs.
I'm on about on screen time, I see it drains 1 percent every couple minutes
