Can I ask how much screen on time do you guys get on average?

For me, I'm not sure if this is considered low or average. From about 100% to 1-2%, my screen on time is usually about 4 hours, totaling up to about 12 hours? Essentially in the morning I leave home and till I get back home. 4G on all the way, other wireless services off (GPS, BT, NFC, Wifi).

Normal? Usage includes surfing net, facebook, whatsapp, fb messenger, epsxe, and some other games.

Screen time 4hrs seems normal to me.. Similar to what I'm getting too. I resorted to turning off 4G now though to reduce battery drain.

Wanna ask if it is normal if my phone's battery drop by 10 percent when I'm sleeping (7 hours)? I've closed all applications and it seems like its a big drop to me...

I've just gotten the phone 2 days ago ...

Mine drops 1 % for around 7 hrs of sleep. However, i switch on flight mode (3G and wifi off) since i have no use for it when sleeping.

Help needed...

Recently, after the software update, I have been having battery drain from "Media"... it is using 65% of the battery life! I can lose up to 50% on mid-day without me doing anything. In the past (and even in my previous HTC), the main "drainer" would be Screen and Android OS and these are understandable and acceptable.

But this "Media" drain is really bad... under it are the following:
Download Manager
Media Storage
com.sec.android.providers.downloads
Downloads
DRM-Protected Content Storage.

I don't store any music or movies on my phone, so I don't understand. The only other thing that was different was that my Note 2 had a sudden death on eve of CNY and my motherboard was replaced before the recent software updates.

Anyone has any clue? My is not rooted... pure stock with ADW launcher.

How come even if I'm on airplane mode, I can't achieve 1% drop for 7 hours of sleep?

I've already disabled unwanted apps and programs though.

Any tips?

Mine having wifi and data turned on for 24/7, brightness I set to lowest plus using an app called screen filter to further decrease the brightness when indoor. Having constant messages coming in at 2-5mins interval (fast texter). Did watch some youtube videos and configuring my phone's theme for the afternoon.

Latest stats show that my battery lasted 18hrs 19mins.
