Not really, yesterday it was around 2-3 hours of screen time on 0% of brightness. I forgot to screen shot it, but I average around that much. I think my battery just sucks. I dont get how hes averaging 2 days of life on his battery if he does have stock @sux2bu.

It's not your battery. Your signal is just horrible. You can see when your battery signal bar is good (green) your battery drain levels off and when it's bad (grey) it nose dives. Searching for signal kills your battery.

Also, I don't average 2 days, that was just a day when I had perfect signal the whole time. With normal changing signal (good and bad) I get about 30 hours with about 3-4 hours screen time. With really crappy signal I get about 15-18 hours with about 3 hours of screen time.

Thanks. Didn't want to start a new thread as I asked about app synching because by Note II is experiencing rapid battery loss beginning today after 2 months of no issues at all. Didn't think I had to restate the entire issue, since I was in the thread where my issue was being discussed.

T...

Actually don't see the setting under data usage but it is in the pull down bar at top of screen. Just pull down and turn sync on or off.

Note 2, it's true, ,size is everything!

Is there anything I can do to boost my signal? I am with T Mobile, and their network service is pretty terrible.

I dont know. Where do I find that? Ive not been using it like mad. Just like normal. Its still going now. The main thing for me is that it will last a full day if I do decide to hammer it. My iphone used to die about 8pm the same day

Hmmm, my note 2 was fully charged before I sleep and woke up 8hrs after with a 75% battery. I have no idea what's happening. I downloaded the cpu thingy and it didn't go in deep sleep blah blah. Deleted all the things i thought could contribute to the battery drain but to no avail. i even disabled the sensors etc. using android 4.1.1.Please help me. :'(

So I've been trying all sorts of the things that people were telling me to do yet to no avail. I did however figure how to save tons of life by my own means even with bad signal and made an account just to share it. I went to settings, display, then notification panel and pulled the 'mobile data' tab to active and turn it off and onwhen not in use.
Its same idea as not syncing email but to the point of everything that requires data.
I only lose about 3 percent after 8 hrs of sleep which use to be 20 to 25. Also if you're at home best to turn off data and leave wifi on anyway no need to keep both on to suck all the juice. Hope this helped.

If you're connected to wifi, data simply won't be used, so I don't believe there is any battery life to be gained.

Even if your connected to wifi, battery is still being consumed with the lte trying to find a signal I believe.

Here's a screenshot at 50 percent with about 3 of the 4 hrs used at half brightness reading ebooks and playing family feud. the other hour is used throughout the day checking email and sport scores. I turned on wifi or data depending if I am home or not. It works out to be 90 min per 1 percent if I leave it fully idle.
