The battery on my new s4 was at 40% or so when I went to sleep, and 12% when I woke up. BetterBatteryStats and Wakelock Detector report that it was in deep sleep >95% of the time, so why is this happening? I have most of the pre-installed bloatware disabled, and also have Easy Battery Saver installed. The phone was also on Power Saving mode with all options enabled.

Was the phone on WiFi or cellular? Also were you roaming or in a bad coverage area?

Wifi should have been disabled by Easy Battery Saver (it does so automatically after a period of non-use) and cellular was disabled. I did just notice that bluetooth is enabled, must have accidentally turned it on. Even so, should the battery drain be that severe?
 
I am also having battery issues.
I have screen brightness at 30%, I have power saver on. I have air gesture, eye control, voice control all off. I do keep 4g on constantly but I am draining 10% per hour with LIGHT use.. And I tried new batterie s and those are doing it to.

So what gives?
Its so bad that when I plug usb into my laptop the phone actually still drains as it charges.. But far slower.
 
If you are using the phone while charging off a laptop then it will most likely drain slowly and not increase battery life depending on what you are doing.

Was it a just out of the box new? Because I had pretty bad battery life the first day but it improved after syncing and dling all my apps. Has it gotten better?
