S III Battery life...

I've had friendcaster since the beginning, I'm not sure if that's REALLY the culprit or not. It has had quite a few update the last two weeks though....

The battery life is so much better when I'm not using Social Media.

Wonder if I should use Facebook on the internet on my phone instead of the apps.

I have some support groups that I MUST tend to throughout the day on there.

I uninstalled friendcaster and restarted and I can already tell a difference my battery isn't draining as fast

I do find it weird how some applications simply 'chew' the battery really quickly!

I was fully charged this morning and my phone is already at 49% by lunch time! I'm not entirely sure what it is and all I've opened was email. I do constantly get emails and I've never had this issue before.
 
I noticed that everyone who is having battery issues there android system is very high. My wife's is up to 65% and she has bad battery life. Mine is at 10% and my battery life is very good. What would course that.

Can anyone tell my why my android system is taking up so much battery? Every other screen I've seen the system use is nowhere near what mine is...

what has been getting my phone battery through a full day on heavy heavy usage is holding home button and clearing all apps. it has made my battery last about 5 more hours a day and I'm extremely heavy user.

Ya there is a forum post on this already. It seems to always appear when I mess with the sound settings (like call volume, etc) but it usually corrects itself with a restart of the phone. And I also think it is wierd that not more people are experiencing this problem cause the Android system was eating over 60 percent of my battery one day!
 
Yeah my android system was a battery culprit but only because of a bug caused by many g+ widget that kept out singing for service, anyways I'm getting 12 hours with fair use here's a pic

Mine has gotten much worse over the last few weeks it just drains when not even being used it seems as though the cell stand by is the problyem. When i first got phone i couldnt believe how good it was. Now im not so sure need to figure out how to post screen shots
 
My battery life has gotten worse over the past few weeks


Can't get 12 hours with 4 hours of screen time anymore.
