Never is in stanby or when I left it in standby the battery continue working normally

How much is your battery draining overnight? I keep mine in airplane mode and it drains only 1-2% overnight.

From 100% to 30% at least in only 7 or 8 hours... Me too I keep in airplane mode but this is not a solution I think

Maybe there's some fault with the device, try taking the phone to Samsung and replacing it.

Don't be so quick to fault the device... there's probably some app that's keeping the phone active.

Post a screenshot of your battery screen.

Pavlito24 already said he did a factory reset but even that didn't fix the problem so there's no question of an app causing the problem.

It would still be nice to see that Battery screen.

I agree with Crestor. Just because one says they did something doesn't mean that is the case. I am sure he did factory reset. But who knows what was installed again after said reset.
Take a screen shot of your battery screen so we can all see

Thanks to everybody for the responses. Here the pics..

LOL... taking a screenshot doesn't literally mean getting a camera and taking a picture of the screen of your phone...

Just swype the edge of your hand from right to left across your screen and the phone will save a picture of your screen to your phone.

Ummm not seeing the problem here either way? 21 hours on once charge for the standard 2100 mAh battery is pretty damn good!

Mhinc, I appreciate your time for the responses, thanks!!!

21 hours that you saw in the picture, even my I saw it, but this is false because the battery drain so fast, I can use at most 4 or 5 hours and then plugged in. 21 hs is a big lie!!.
Anyway, the day before yesterday I charged the battery 100% I pulled out the SD memory card and I fall asleep, I check the % when I woke up and the battery was in 94% That was great for my only use 6% in 8hours with wifi on. Last night I insert the Sd card again, I woke up 10 minutes ago and the battery is in 35%,(65% in 8hs) so I think I have some problem with the memory card, at least I found a solution!! I pulled out the memory and the battery it is working normally.

False Reporting? Wow that's a new one.....Also the Memory Card causing battery drain is a new one as well. Try a different memory card to make sure it's not a short in the MicroSD slot, and if it has the same issues with a different fresh card then I think it's time to contact Samsung for warranty!
