[Q] [Problem] [TX] "Android System" Processes & Packages Eat Up Battery?

Hey dears, I just noticed a very annoying fact on Power Management in Settings :(
on 18h of On Battery usage, now the battery meter shows that Screen On just has used the battery of 25%, and the more surprising fact is that "Android System", which includes some packages like "Extension For Throw" and "WFD", eats up 45%!!!!!!
can you check yours?!!!
is that normal?!!!
I'm totally stock, .67 Hong Kong, Unlocked, stock kernel, just removed bloatwares....
Tnx a million :)

i've removed the corresponding app, i'ts not even installed, let alone consuming battery, the only mirroring app is Throw itself, which is always off, i don't use it much of an often :)
it's weird, never saw this with a bunch of phones i had, especially Xperias :(

Same on my XTX. I have check my friend's XS and the Android System is not on the top of the list but the Screen. So I believe that there must be something wrong with my settings. Hope I can solve it here.

I got this problem too, my TX got a full day with normal use, check power management and Android System load about 45%, higher than screen usage, but a few days ago when I just bought this phone I got about almost 2 days of full use, and Android System just at 20%.

It's easy to know what eat battery, it Sony system itself
If U don't want system eat a lot decompile framework and remove app like Throw or any app that you doesn't use it
XD
Also removing bloatware help though if you don't wanna play with framework
I've removed the bloatwares, EVERYTHING you can think of, just the Throw is still there, which i don't use it at all, and WFD, it's weird
So, here comes a question, if i remove a bloatware, but i haven't edit Framework, will that app still consume battery?!!
obviously the answer is "No", because the app has been removed, but what you said made me think this way....
and one other thing, any suggestion or solution for it?

No more solution for now =(
Reboot can fix, but sometimes media server can eat a lot of battery
Also our display if 1st eat a lot of battery
You can use peetr rom, like promising for Xperia T, but you need patch to using it on TX
I'm too lazy to testing it, I will trying figuring what eat battery on TX
The 1st culprit is Android System, Media server and display
But I'm going to ignore display, since we use almost display everyday
XD
So, the conclusion is Android System and Media server for my case
=)
