Hello, I have a galaxy S4 and awhile ago i noticed that the nfc service kept draining battey from 25 to 37%. (I have Finnish as my phones language) but I guess i pressed the "force stop" or similar button from the nfc settings and I thought that would solve my problem. Well, it did not (still drains battery the same amount all the time). Now I can't turn nfc On anymore and from the menu it shows that it's neither On or Off (pic link at the bottom)* I have done the factory settings reset once and I also got a new battery since I found out that the Nfc is located in the battery. Neither of those worked. Battery drain from nfc still sometimes nearly 40% ... I will put a couple more photos if it will give you a better view of the situation. I guess the problem has something to do with the force stop thing... I have tried to do it again a couple of times and no results..

Go to applications manager > All . There you gonna find a shit load of things . If you still havent disabled that service , force stop it and disable it . Also scan though all the services and see which ones take the most RAM , there should be a number right below the name . Feel free to disable anything except the important things . Also uninstall any apps you dont use , install ccleaner or an app that cleans up your system .

Also you might have a virus , install the avast free antivirus for android and scan your phone .

it might as well be a battery issue so if the things i said above dont work and it is really bad , do a factory reset and if you still have that problem , it is your battery .
