Thanks for all comments. It was bought privately and was stock. It was reset in front of me before handing over.

OK here I am now with following setup. System panel pro to check usage, airplane mode on to switch off cell signal and WiFi then turned on to give me back my web access, all and I mean all notifications turned off as I am not a heavy social app user. Things are definitely better but I'll run it a couple of days and post back results. Just about everything related to Google has been turned off because if find it far too intrusive. All that is left is Google play!

By the away I use the xenonhd ROM and I have to say it is really really good. Very stable, very fast and very professionally finished.

Were you noticing these same battery problems when you first ran the stock ROM?

Not sure if this helps but if you are using kindle you can email PDFs to your kindle email address which is unique to you and it will appear as a book...

Matt.....Not quite.... WiFi and mobile signal off but still awake in sleep mode and wake lock not showing anything up that matches the durations of waking??.....

Bjs229..... I have reset it so many times when flashing roms but no difference. Is that the same thing?

Anyone know what the two main services that are running are? I don't have Google talk installed and why would connectivity services be running???

Getting somewhere. See screenshot below. This is after switching into airplane mode, turning wifi off when asleep and thgen putting to sleep for the last hour. Play update was always off and dont have voice or messaging apps installed. All mail syncs turned off.

Have discovered that turning mobile data off does NOT turn off the actual cell signal. Which is why the signal bar is continuously on in the last set of screenshots. However if I turn on airplane mode and then WiFi back on this kills the cell signal while still letting me browse in the house! Not exactly slick and shouldn't need such intervention but let's see what that will yield battery consumption wise before I turn WiFi off also.

I got it second hand last week. Six weeks old and as new. However who knows how it was initially charged and discharged...

What do you mean by hard reset? I have flashed various ROMS to see if that would help and have done quite a few factory resets through clockwordmod recovery bootloader...is that the same thing?

Thanks for all the comments. Yep matt is right about the 38% thing.

No auto sync on anything and I am running things stripped back I.e. no current, no daydream, basically nothing that runs in background - I'm a bit OCD in that respect! I have since posting installed wake lock, turned off 3g and left it in sleep. Below is result. Not sure what it tells me except why is mobile signal still shown?

$:-\$

I will try WiFi off in sleep now and see what drain down is like.

My battery life is terrible! Not running any background apps and Bluetooth off. This is a 32 GB with 3g. Any thoughts welcome but I think I have a dud on my hands
