Help Battery Normal? (GSAM)

Blazalin

Newbie
These are my battery stats. Usually when i'm idle without wifi or data on, i get about 1% drained every hour. With screen on without those on about 1% every 20-40min. With wifi on, i lose 1% every 2-4 minutes. I don't use data at all and only use wifi. Can you guys help me with this problem? I'm rooted with cm11 4.4.2 with their kernal. sgh-t999.

Thanks!

Any radio, wifi or phone, turned on and not finding a signal is going to eat a lot of battery.

OTOH, if you're transferring a lot of data, like doing tons of app updates, that will also use a lot of battery.

Other than that, it looks like your screen being on and, possibly a defective wifi radio, that's causing the problem. Mostly the wifi. It would probably be a pretty expensive dignosis to find out why, though.
 
When you say you don't use data, do you mean that you have the cell radio turned off, or you just have mobile data turned off?

So what exactly should i do?
 
For some reason wifi is really hammering your battery.
In the very last (bottom) picture, when you look at the blue wifi bar, what were you actually doing during those times wifi was on?
 
In the stock battery settings, after heavy use, when you tap on "screen" what kinda time can you get when the battery level is down to like 5%? anything over 4hours is pretty good imo

The highest i remember is 2 hours and 37 minutes with 9% left. Before i rooted and did customization though, it was at like 1 hour and 15 minutes lol ( on 4.1.2) so it has improved i just know it can be better.
