Kitkat update, battery dies faster?

Since it update, seems to die faster. Curious anyone else noticed.

Yes and I can't seem to find out why either.

Well from Battery manager it states Android system is 38% of activity. The rest is > 9% active. Is there a rogue code running over and over is what I think.

For me AndroidOS draining 65% of the battery.

I know this is 5 months old. But wanted to give some insight if someone comes across it. Probably what you'll have to do/did was reload the phone through Kies. An entirely new install of the OS. Factory reset keeps the core system files and the battery is tied into that.

Yeah I had to factory reset and it worked. Though I've got a new Note 3. (Changed service) No problems.
