StillHaving Battery Drain Lollipop 5.0.1 Galaxy S4 after Factory Reset
I cleared my cache partition and then did a factory reset to hopefully stop the fast battery drain. No such luck. I have my phone set up again and still having battery draining fast. Not sure what else to do. Anyone else have any ideas. Glad I always have my phone charger with me. I have to charge it at least twice a day if not more. Battery drains fast when doing anything.

Well it sure isn't normal.
What does the Settings > Battery display say is using most of your battery?

Don't think info is right when I check to see under Battery. Shows Android at 4% as opposed to 54.9% that shows up under the apps that are running using an app I installed called, Linous Battery. It started draining fast during setup.Battery was at 97% when I did the factory reset and when setup started, battery had drained quickly. As of now, I am at 62%

not only does battery drain if you ever get to zero you're done for a long time as it continuously tries to power on when at 0%. idk a way to stop it either

Another thing that happens is that the screen comes on for no reason and then goes off. It's like I pushed a button to see the lock screen and I didn't. I turned all motions and gestures off. I am out of ideas. I hate I can't have my brightness turned up on my phone. I have it pretty low to try to help with battery life, but still draining really fast.

I had posted before about what was running. Using Linpus Battery Optimizer, it shows Android System using most resources. Right now it shows 71.4%. Under Battery in settings, it shows it only used 1%. I don't think 1% is right. It ususally is Task Manager and Android System with the most percentage when I check Linpus Battery Optimizer.
