Root Battery Drain Issues on SHIFTAO5P v1.2x

Yes, that's the only thing I can think of. You shouldn't be losing battery that quickly.

The only "pure AOSP" we have is OMGB, and it's not 100% pure. (feel like we're talking about drugs or something, lol)

Lol it does sound like that. And thank you again. I just don't understand what is causing the phone to lose battery life that quickly especially when im using 4G it would just go on to half within an hour

Well, LTE is going to give you terrible life regardless. If you keep the LTE radio on while you aren't using it that's where the issue is. I keep it turned off when not in use and I'm on 25 hours up with 39% battery left (95% on WiFi)

I have excellent battery life when I am on wifi, almost 15hours. But i just thought that the phone could handle the 3g connection because smartphones arent always on wifi connection, you know what I mean?

I know exactly what you mean and being on 3G does drain battery quicker than WiFi, not as quick as you're experiencing, though. If you're off WiFi with the LTE radio on, even if you're just on 3G that's where your drain is coming from.

Unfortunately my lte radio is off when im not in the city. 3G by itself just drains my battery quickly for some reason.

So I've had my 4G radio on for the past...2 months and I'm not in a 4G area. /facepalm. Only 9 more days and I have 4G, though!!
