Have you tried developer mode?
To show developer mode on samsung galaxy:
1. Settings, the more tab, finally about phone
2. Click "build number" repeatedly. Then a little message should pop up and day that is has unlocked
3. Click back once and you should see "developer mode" option
4. All the way at the bottom there's an option where it you can restrict how many apps run at all times. Improving Your Battery.
have you dimmed yours light on your phone?

Tell me how it goes.
I had the same until I did some research....
Just to update you on what I've found so far.
I removed my Exchange, Outlook and SkyGo account from the Account section. Also I went into each account in this section and made sure accounts I didnt want syncing were correct. It appears samsung account was set to not sync but was syncing as the time for it kept updating itself every so often.
I have disable Wifi, Location and Bluetooth. On top of this I set the Data to only use GPRS
Last nigh was the first time I didnt need to plug my phone in. It was 47% at 11pm and at 7am it was 43% and the battery graph was nice and flat.
I'm going to enable one thing at a time to see what might set the drain away. If I find any more I'lll try and report back.
