I don't know if this has been addressed, but the battery drain on my Galaxy s4 Active since the recent AT&T upgrade to 4.4.2 has been atrocious. I charge overnight, and within an hour, 15 - 20% of my battery life is drained just when I get my email messages. It drains consistently and exponentially there on out.
Looking around, it seems to be said that "skype" seems to be a culprit, and has to do with the camera settings.
Thinking about it, one of the features of 4.4.2 was the camera shortcut on the lock screen. Maybe that is causing the battery drain?? I removed the camera shortcut...and un-installed Skype...and will see how it goes. But it seems odd that there is this camera shortcut on the lock window all of a sudden by default, and then reports of battery drain. Any connection?
REMOVE CAMERA SHORTCUT ON LOCK SCREEN: Settings > My Device > Lock Screen > Shortcuts > None.
