Do the factory restore/reset, it helped mine. Also always have your system software up to date.

Plz tell me if this is normal.
11% of the battery is used by Mediaserver, sometimes it goes upto 20%
Is it normal?

no, you have bad media file (music, video or picture) on your SD card.
Guys, let me ask you a question.
Which one would you chose, considering battery life? (battery, a very important thing for me).
GT-9500 or GT-9505?
That is not a question! Get the octa core! the 9500!
Ok, i am waiting for opinions.
I am more likely to buy the octa core version but, from the feedback i've read on the forum it overheats a lot, and the battery is not so great.

This is my first Droid so i dont know the implications of Hard Reseting my device. Will it remove the Bloatware from my service provider? Is there a way to retrieve the apps and settings and stuff after hard reset that after hard reseting it, it doesnt feel like i did a hard reset?
Settings --> Accounts --> Backup&Reset --> Factory reset
No, it won't remove any of the bloatware, but our forum members have said that it will help with battery life and overheating problems.
The bloatware can be removed only by rooting the phone.

Yes.
Except for mediaserver your numbers are normal and you should expect screen to take that percentage or even somewhat more. In the 40 percent range is quite typical and expected. The one poster was correct, find out what is keeping mediaserver lit up.

Must admit, that it is turning in the positive direction. The battery settled great

i get at least 5hrs screen on stock. Op what language is that?(ju$t curious lol)
Out of all the smartphones i have owned the S3 has the best battery life...managed to get 7 hrs screen on time with 30% brightness a lot of browsing, listening to music and watching hd videos....i find that i usually have to charge phone once after every 2 days with medium usage...light usage i can go for slightly over 3 days without charging...amazing
I get about 3 hrs with a heavy live wallpaper, 100% brightness and bit of games.. my desire would die after 1 hr.
It does drain allot on standby, about 15% overnight. :|

Oh I understand now. Well, its been that way ever since the battery graph came along. Its that way even on my i9000. I think it has to do with the fact that even when the screen is on, the processor is not necessarily processing if you aren't doing anything. Even the CPU frequency goes down to its minimum value, despite your screen being on without any app open or task running. Also, there's a difference between sleep and deep sleep.

You probably hold the phone to your ear when you use viber. Which means your phone i active with the screen off.

I am not sure why you crossed out the FCC ID stuff and not the IMEI, but your battery is normal. The 1300 you see is the max power draw of the device. It is not rated in mAh as it is not a storage device.
Your battery is fine. That is the 2600mAh one that we all have as stock.
You never gave any details on what your battery life issues are, your usage patterns or any other details. But your battery and phone look normal.

Oh sorry I was in a hurry and crossed out the wrong things. Also my usage patterns are less than average and I believe there is something wake locking the device or something because the battery dies even when the screen isn't on. But I am losing about 3% a minute and about 2% without the screen even being on. And all I'm doing is browsing the web.

I have read where the KitKat upgrade for the G2 is supposed to add speed and increase battery life even further. For me however it seems its the opposite. I have had way worse battery life since installing (pc lg tool) the KitKat update. I was going all day with anywhere from 40 - 30% left when it was finally plugged in for the night, now I am lucky if I make it to the end of the night. At first I thought perhaps it was just in need of a reboot, but I have done that several times since installation and battery times are still worse. What I don't understand is the battery meter says "System" is to blame for 53% cpu time. Before screen time was my number one battery drain, now its just from being on?.... I don't get it.. Anyone else having this issue, or can shed some light?

That's just it, i haven't done anything different. It can't be an app because i haven't installed anything since the upgrade. What bothers me is it seems to be a system process that's causing it.

Not sure if it is something generic across KitKat or if it is specific to my ROM but pocket mode was killing my battery since it was constantly powering my proximity sensors looking for light to unlock the screen.

I provided the path above, like I said though not sure if it is specific to the ROM i'm on(PA 4.4.2) or not. It the only real exposure to kitkat that I've had. If it isn't a default kitkat thing i apologize if I got your hopes up. I will say this though, if it is don't get your hopes up. It's rather annoying and a massive battery drain. With it on my phone acted like it had half the battery it does.
I don't have location settings turned on, so google now shows unavailable for location, also I don't have security turned on, so I have no security lock screen notification settings that I could find... I'm assuming this is only on if you are using pin, or pattern lock. Thanks for the suggestions tho... I'm going to keep monitoring it and see how it goes. So far today it seems to have normalized, Android System is only showing 2%, which is more like it.
I'm on Official LG Stock KK and to be truthful the battery life has been pretty bad. Like not really comparable to 4.2.2 and definitely not comparable to vanilla Android(of course). What's the issue? Anyone know?
Sent from my LG-D801 using xda app-developers app
Had a similar issue. Let It settle for a day or so. If no improvement, that's a pain but go through a factory reset. That should fix it. Did you have a specific setup like root/custom rom before?

Will you lose root if you do a factory reset and was this a factory reset from the Stock Recovery or from entering the Settings and inside Backup and Reset menu and then Factory Reset?
So here we go again a new flagship and a lot of reviews said the phone had an impressive battery life. What is your experience? Post bbs or screenshots
I got the phone yesterday, trying to test it out myself today and get results!!!
First full charge is encouraging.

Definitely! I was impressed myself, especially since I came from an iPhone that had a depressing 1400mAh battery. In the time it took for one full discharge on my S5, I would have needed to do 1.5-2 charges on my iPhone :laugh:

Getting outstanding battery life on my g900a. Once someone figures out root for it and i get greenify working properly it should be even better.
Siting at 8H 25M 11S on Battery. AT&T S5. The thing that is killing my battery the most, Gear Fit Manager at a19% then Android at 16% and Screen at 14%. I have only charged 2 times so far since I bought the phone on Sunday, Ran it down to 9-10% yesterday but it took forever to charge. In over two hours of charge time it went from 10% to 37%. My iPhone 5 would have been 100% or close to it. Never had android phone before (really enjoying it) so not sure if this is normal or it will get faster the more charging cycles.
Thanks
