thanks for the suggestions. however i did follow the procedures and im not new to Rooting. thanks for the ~smart-ass~ remarks but i didnt come from a 2" clam shell (if you would read my other posts) nor i was blaming the rom for the battery life. I was merely looking to see if other people had similar problems and thus yes i did search but posts containing how great of a battery life arent goign to help my problems. I will take your advice and try again from a fresh install, maybe even just wait till v3 and erase damn everything (which i already did) and try a new kernel.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] travisd4est:
I've tried all three and stock is great. Bat life is great for me.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ramondel:
Razpr,

I do not know if you have read this thread, it has some very useful suggestions on tweaking Ktoonsez Kernel for a blend of performance and battery life. This kernel has been tested extensively or Clark would not be adding it to the new release. Give it a go and let us know how you make out. Here is the Link for the thread, there are other links on the OP for other posts as well.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] hayzooos:
As with what the other guys said, I'm guessing it's Google Now. I had it running for a day or two and realized how much battery it actually drained, so I turned it back off. I'm not even one of those guys who's obsessed with battery life either. I just don't see the benefit of it vs the cost to battery. It has some great features, but until it's a bit more friendly on the battery, I'll leave it off.

The other thing that might be worth a shot: Settings --> Application Manager --> All (tab) --> Maps -------------------------> Once there, click on Force Stop. I've noticed sometimes that if you use Navigation, GMaps will continue to use your battery pretty heavily even if you turn GPS off after you're at your location like I do.

And your screen shot is only after 45 minutes of use after it was at 100%. The way the phone charges, the "100%" might not always be completely accurate as I believe this phone bump charges if it remains plugged in. I believe that's what the Epic did and I think this does the same thing. That's why sometimes when you unplug the phone, it'll stay at 100% for an hour, while other times it'll drop to 98% almost right away and you're doing the same things.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mlin:
This shouldn't be the case. I have all of my location tracking turned on and don't get any extra drain from maps or Google now. My wife on the other hand does get battery drain. It doesn't seem like disabling functionality should be the solution.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bog3nator:
Your not disabling functionality your just stopping your phone from reporting were you are every second. Which when it does it in real time it will drain excess battery. And everything else still works like it did before
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mlin:
My point is that without disabling that function my battery life is stellar. Thus location reporting isn't likely the issue and disabling that functionality shouldn't be the solution. I'm in the middle of trying to solve this issue for my wife and when I find a solution, I'll check in. So far I've tried:

Fresh install

Different ROM

Uninstalling maps update

Turning off location tracking

I'm thinking there may be an app that she uses that indirectly calls on Google maps and keeps it running all the time. So, I'll go through her apps and settings and see if I can find a possible culprit.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] bog3nator:
Install better battery stats that will tell you
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] MontyPyFly:
That will just tell you that "maps" is causing all the wakelocks, but it won't tell you what is calling on maps to wake it up :)

Deleting Google maps and reinstalling the latest from the app store seems to solve it for most.

I'm sorry if you feel any of my remarks were "smart-ass".

Perhaps you are a bit over sensitive (THAT could be construed as a smart ass remark! :) )

I have no way of knowing, from your few posts here, what your level of expertise is, or what phones you have used, so my remarks are directed at a "generic" user level. My answers are also directed at other users that may have searched for similar issues, so please don't take offense.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Razpr:
No offense taken! Stressfull day and yes you were correct on being over sensitive!

Now i feel silly but i just went through alll these tweaks you guys suggested and it seems better. Screen is reporting higher % than android system and android OS etc how it really should be :) i changed the kernel so im guess that if its draining a little too fast its because it needs to set in which could be from 3-5 charges between the upcoming week!

Ive underclocked to 1.2ghz (will see if it doesnt get choppy or i will raise it a bit more) and undervolted a bit!

:| My only regret is that now theres a new build coming for this rom and i will have to do it ALL over again once it comes out D: im kind of wishing it gets delayed a little bit LOL!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] JCJ77:

KT Kernel Settings

Just a share, what I have been using with great success..and great battery...

Kt Tweaker..in app drawer

go to general...CPU Governor - intellidemand

I/O scheduler - CFQ

That is it there, back out to main.

Go to extras, change screen off profile mhz to 144...back to main screen

make sure you set options on boot! (no oc or uv)

Of course, ymmv, and there are thousands of different variables. this is not the thread for that, so I suggest use of PM and/or reviewing the kernel thread over in original development.

Well, I'm sitting here at the computer refreshing every 20 minutes or so, hoping that the update for this excellent ROM magically appears :P Anxious for that AOSP Lockscreen!

But ah, here's a quick question: Does disabling the Sprint Connections Optimizer render me unable to connect to any Sprint 4G networks at all? It mentions automatically connecting to Wifi and 4G, but I get kind of annoyed seeing my Wifi turned on randomly in places that don't have any. On the other hand, if I can't get on 4G without it, then I guess I'd rather leave the Connections Optimizer enabled.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] SF Steven:
As long as you're set to CDMA/LTE/EVDO (under Settings>Wireless and network>More settings>Mobile networks>Network mode), you'll get 4G LTE if it's available even if you disable the connections optimizer.

The need to wipe battery stats was a myth debunked by a Google dev about a year ago on her Google+ page.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] xCovErtWolFx757:
It made since in my head. But if yours work then I'm sure it works on this rom. The Epic touch doesn't support ext4 so you have to format it to fat32 and you lose 32gb. Just wondering if this rom and device supports ext4

Debunked my ass. Wiping battery stats on a normal android phone. Useless. Wiping said stats when your phone's configuration changes constantly? It should be a requirement. If more people knew how to properly calibrate their battery we wouldn't have as many kids crying that they don't see the life they should
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] mlin:
I'm inclined to believe an Google/Android developer over you. She stated that is written into the Android code to wipe battery stats every time the phone reaches 100% charge. Your only evidence to support your statement is anecdotal and thus worthless.
