The android os is running high on my phone. Last night it was 53% and currently it is 48%. Why is it running so high?

Here is a screen shot from last night. The phone was fully charged yesterday (from 12%)

Also how can I find out which apps are battery hogs?

It can be difficult to comment on the significance of that without more context. If you're not doing much with the phone, then the OS will usually be responsible for a greater percentage of total battery usage--but the total battery usage should be fairly minimal. Is the battery draining more quickly than usual?

Charge up to 100%, then let it drain to 20-30% with normal usage, without charging in between. Then show us:

1. The main Settings>Battery screen.
2. The fullscreen battery graph screen (which shows Awake time and Cell Signal Strength).
3. The Screen category (to see total Screen On time).
4. The Cell Standby category, if present (to see Time Without Signal).

I also find that a simple reboot can sometimes clear the issue.
