Try Fresh Install

I was having major battery drain with 4.2.1

I read a suggestion on another forum to wipe and reinstall the software from scratch.

It did take nearly an hour with a nearly full 64GB (back-up, erase, reinstall, refill with music and data etc...) but NOW my battery is WAY better, back to how it was when I first bought the phone running 4.0 or 4.1.

Definitely worth a a try if you just 'upgraded' from 4.2 without wiping.

Thanks :) and thanks for the non aggressive reply. I find on this site sometimes people can be very arrogant.

No problem and i fully understand what you mean about this place, there are enough arrogant unhelpful people in the real world with out us needing more on here, a place where people are meant to help each other.
