Okay Thanks, now I got it!! Cheers jeff!
[Galaxy Note II General] Martux76:
On my Note 2 the process "Android OS" is eating up more than 60% battery, even more than the screen, which has only 15%. After 36h of moderate usage and Wifi on except at night, I am now on 13%. Not bad, but the "Android OS" is giving me a headache. It says it had a CPU time of more than 10h. WTF. What exactly is this process and why does it keep my phone awake all the time? I am using HyperNote 0.4 and RedPill 1.0, but before the biggest CPU eater was definitely the screen. Any explanations would be highly recommended.
[Galaxy Note II General] adytum:
Install better battery stats and post screenshots from a full discharge.
[Galaxy Note II General] D3_:
Common on RedPill, it's just a reporting bug, the actual battery use shouldn't be affected.
[Galaxy Note II General] BullHorn7:
6 hours of screen time was only 40% of the entire 13h usage. I have enabled Exchange ActiveSync, 2 Google accounts, Facebook, Twitter, Skype, Viber, Whatsapp, Weather widget, Dropbox and a couple of other features.

The best I had in my life, I can't imagine ever going back to something smaller/weaker. :P

[Galaxy Note II General] BullHorn7:
Wow, some of your stats seem unreal!

I managed to get 6h of screen time from a full charge that lasted a total of 13h. I have 2 gmail accounts, exchange, twitter, fb, weather, viber, skype, whatsapp and a bunch of other stuff working in the background too.
[Galaxy Note II General] Martux76:
I had my phone running now for some time with Perseus and HyperNote 0.4. Android OS is not the main CPU hog but the results are not so impressive... Total screen on time ~4h, moderate usage only. Would be interesting to hear someone else's opinion.

First off, you seem to have wakelocks as ur phone is only deep sleeping 75 prct. Secondly why not use stock kernel..trust me this is no ordinary samsung phone, you dont need custom roms and kernels

Swyped from another galaxy
[Galaxy Note II General] Martux76:
I will give the stock kernel a try and see how it goes. For the ROM: I tried many, many ROMs so far and Hypernote is the force for me. I really don't get it why Samsung decided to run our baby on 320 dpi. everything is WAY too big IMHO. As Hypernote is based on stock firmware, it should be safe to use it, right?
[Galaxy Note II General] Mad_Wolf:
I dont get it some phones have mediaserver and some dont in their battery stats although they have used the same apps or things

how is that possible
[Galaxy Note II General] adytum:
My guess is that you use data a lot, and in the kernel wakelocks tab there is a data related wakelock for a couple of hours. Data conenection has and always will drain juice, no way around it. Sorry if you actually don't use data, but the above is still true for others.

People tend to misunderstand wakelocks as an evil that must be fought with fire, but really it is a part of how android works, some times an app needs to wake the phone to perform a task. The problem is when an app doesn't close a wakelock.

Large, corrupt and many media files and corrupt sd cards causes media scanner to work overtime, it will manifest itself as media server usage in the stats.

I don't get how some guys can reach 8h screen on time even more when I only do 4h 20, it's like I have a S3...

hope it'll get better after few charges.
[Galaxy Note II General] barondebxl:
Thats cause you use your phone super heavy. In order to get 8 hours on screen time you need to "stretch" your usage meaning for example, use it for 1 hour on screen time then light usage for 2-3 hours then another heavy use and so on. But use your phone the way you want it, not to achieve a milestone. On a regular work day, its easy to get 15hours total with 7 hours of screen time,easy.

that's amazing! I've never had a battery life like that!
[Galaxy Note II General] foxmeister:
I don't agree with this.

On Saturday, I was playing with my phone for most of the day, screen on.

When I got up, I was browsing the web and forums for a couple of hours with the screen constantly on. I then walked to the gym, listening to Spotify, which took around 10 minutes and once I got there had the screen on either monitoring my heart rate or watching a video for another couple of hours. When I got back home, I had just over 4 hours screen on time, and around 60% battery charge left.

I then went out for a few hours, only using the phone sporadically, before coming home late afternoon. In the evening, I was pretty much using my new toy solidly, before putting in on charge for the night. At that point I had over 7 hours screen time and the battery was at 26%.

Regards,

Dave
[Galaxy Note II General] swejuggalo:
I use Juice Defender 3.9.5 Ultimate and get a pretty decent battery time. Advanced profile, setup to my needs, with no root or anything. (a few minutes charge due to a temporary connection to Kies). Nothing manually disabled (JD handles it for me).

I'll update with a full discharge (5% or less) sooner or later.

I can not currently show the screenshot due to the forum limitation... So I'll will write it down. 1d, 12h, 42% battery, 30% screen, 18% Android System, 10% Android OS, 6% Device Idle, 6% Cell standby, 4% gpsd, 3% Firefox...
[Galaxy Note II General] oniwanbanshu:

Watching vids on an amoled display doesnt kill the battery life like it does on other displays.

What you displayed is what I said in my OP, switching from heavy to light use.
[Galaxy Note II General] foxmeister:
I wasn't watching vids for the vast majority of the period - maybe an hour in total. Most of my screen on time would have been web browsing and other apps (such as Tapatalk).

@adytum: I use InternetCommander to handle my data connection and enable it for 1 minute every 15 minutes. At home, where I am often these days, I only use Wifi. So far I could not verify any better battery life with the stock kernel compared to RedPill 1.0. I mean, I will still get like 24h without having to recharge but I can't see how many people here manage to get 3 or 4 days...
[Galaxy Note II General] adytum:
It doesn't matter, as long as there's many media files and/or some are corrupt, media server will behave like this.
[Galaxy Note II General] WM_Rizzo:
That just seems so wrong. Never tested it, but I'm quite sure I can play the most intensive 3d games for 5 hours, let alone regular usage. If I don't play games much or use GPS, I can easily use it for 2 days without charging. That's with wifi or data on.

Anyway the key to those results is minimum brightness.

Disabling location reporting helps a ton (it hinders Google Now, but there are workarounds to regain full functionality while maintaining low battery usage).
