Hello
My battery drained rapidly today when I wasn't even using the phone. Here are the screen shots.
 
Media server is usually some type of streaming audio or video. See what apps you have that are running that might be related. Do you use google music? I'm trying to think what apps I've used that show up as media server besides google music. Not sure about youtube or SiriusXM but those are possibilities. Something is constantly waking up your phone.

What are the two "E" icons at the top? Some sort of ESPN app?

Thanks. The E icons are ESPN. Restarted the phone. No problems today where I have access to power when I want it.
 
Was ESPN on some sort of live score updating page or something? Like a game with play by play updates open? I'm wondering if it was something like that.

It gives me news for my favorite teams. For baseball, I get the score at the end of the 3rd, 6th and 9th innings. Football, I get the score every quarter. But the battery drain happened in the daytime when there weren't any games going on. It has a play by play feature, but I didn't have it turned on because none of my teams were playing. And I have had the ESPN app for over a year and never experienced battery drain like that before.
 
I usually experience this with the Spotify app every couple months. I just uninstall it and re-download it to get rid of the problem.
