Ok... So I got my S3 back in May 2013. It was my first ever smart phone. The battery life of the stock 2200mAh battery was never great. I was lucky to get 18 hours of moderate use before needing to recharge. Recently it could make it less than 6 hours before needing to recharge. It would drop 3% as soon as I took it off the charger, activate the screen and it'd drop another 2% within 1 minute. I figured 18 hours was normal, but less than 6 hours was just unbearable.
A month ago I purchased a bigger battery, a 7000 mAh ZeroLemon from BasTex Wireless. I've followed their instructions to fully charge and drain the battery to 2% 5 times. I was getting about 2 days of use before needing to recharge on average during that cycle. Now on the 6th battery charge I'm seeing a very high percentage of use by the OS, where in the first 5 cycles of charging/discharging it would use around 18%, and the battery is draining like the old 2200mAh battery.
Can anyone offer any advice on what I can do to restore my phones OS usage to normal without having to chuck my new battery.
Thanks.
