Insane phone radio power consumption

Hello, i have lenovo A806 with vibe ui 9432 and i noticed my battery is draining fast, so I installed GSAM and these are results after a day

4g is off and I am connected to wifi almost whole day, why so high phone radio?

How is your signal strength? It could be searching for a phone signal is it is weak.
I don't think the "phone radio" results are for the data portion (4g or wifi), it's for the phone signal (cell signal). (I could very well be wrong about that )

But, 7% in just over 5 hrs and 1.2%/hr in my opinion are not too bad.
I usually average 4-5 % /hour and right now am at "Used 50% in 12h 23m"

How long does your battery last between charges?

Oh I forgot i put it on a charger 10 minutes in meantime, well it lasts for 4H of screen on time and about 10-15 hours a day usualy before I need to charge it.Phone has insanely good sleep time, it uses almost no battery, but when I use it leaks, even if I only use whatsapp messaging it drops insane

Hmm, what does the next screen show when you click on the "Phone Radio"?

It is like this, ok it is lot of data today, but percentage like this is usual, is there any other software that can check what is using battery? Phone is rooted, so I am flexible regarding apps

Well, believe it or not, when I was rooted (geez I miss that sometimes ), I used BetterBatteryStats.
Fantastic app in my opinion and worth the couple bucks to use.
The How-To page
The XDA forum page.

I also used 3c Toolbox, but found it a little confusing.
