Help Display draining battery

[ewarren29]

Sorry if this has been posted already . My display regularly accounts for most of my battery drain in the 80-90 percentage. But my phone is timed out. Does anyone know how to fix that or account for it. Have had the phone over a year now and all of the sudden it is draining horrifically fast. Also was wondering if anyone is using Emerald Envy rom as I have heard it is great for battery life.

nice to meet you, ewarren9!

Ummm....? Maybe you have your display at high precentage and need to reduce by display setting on the phone....Or unchecked the power saving mode that would probably save battery by the trick...

The display being a high % of battery use is a good thing, no? That means there is little drain when the phone is idle due to background apps and that the radio isn't working too hard to get a signal.

Try this. Charge your phone completely. Then after you disconnect the charger, let the phone sit unused for about 6 hours (best to this when you're sleeping). The check your battery use first before doing anything else with your phone.
