I don't use power saving mode either and I wasn't home all day, I have disabled lots of apps and I use nova launcher with it... no GPS or nfc but Bluetooth connected all day for hands free and music... WiFi on but notifications off...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] djmouse:
Yea I enable power saving mode when I get to 15 percent left ,I also use nova prime actually I'm on the beta right now,I too have almost ever ATT app disabled along with a few others that I dont use,only use location for when I need GPS,and only toggle on NFC when I use wallet,Bluetooth I never turn on don't own a Bluetooth headset and my pathfinder has 1/8 aux in better sound then Bluetooth in the car for me anyway,I gotta get tasker or llama running to automatically turn off mobile data when I'm on WiFi and turn WiFi off when mobile data is on and can't get wifi, but I'm happy with my battery life I get pleanty of onscreen time on a cycle and have pleant left by the time I go to bed and charge for next day,I never feel like ohh man I gotta charge my phone so it doesn't die and that's what its all about,as long as you can make it threw your day till when your ready for bed it all good,where I'm working I get no service so if I forget to turn off my mobile data my phone gets rapped I'll show you today I turned it off in the morning then back on to make a call at break forgot to turn it off you'll see the damage

Here look

Look at mobile network lol horrible

But I absolute love this phone everything about it,so fast and snappy,never crashes or random reboots the screen is phenomenal, specially ultra brightness in sun,never seen a phone do that ,wasts battery but worth it looks holographic to me,I love everything about it,best phone I've had hands down gone from s3,to s4,s5 now this all with root except the note but I don't need it,defiantly won't with lollipop,so I hope if anyone has the exploit for it and are holding out for a bigger bounty,there gonna be in for a rude awaking I think,they don't do it soon I think there gonna regret it but just my thought

And to top it off my isp sucks I'm gonna try and get some refund or credit befirevi switched to the family 39gb share my daughter was going over her shared 4 gbs every month because my WiFi dropping out or being so slow,she don't know and keeps using mobile data ,Comcast has made me spend unessicary money because there modem is shat just haven't had time to swap for a new one,been going on 4 5 months

Sorry for the rant had a long two days lol I'm done

Why does Gallery use so much battery on my phone? I didn't even open it since this morning. Any thing wrong with my setup? Just got my phone two days ago. Came from a HTC One X+. Everything is new to me. Please help. Thanks in advance.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] maddy402:
battery life poor

my battery life has been poor. It's been 3 days and the battery lasts about about 12 hrs. What could be the issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] insang-droid:
I'm also having ****ty battery life as well. I'm at 65% by mid day with barely using the phone. I use to be able to get to mid day with around 95% battery with my lg g3.

With 3.5 hours. I had 30% battery drain and 20% from android OS
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] diablo900t:
I've been having the same issue and there doesn't seem to be any solution. restored the phone twice and it hasn't made a difference.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] NYYFan02:
Yeah android OS is destroying my battery since the update, not happy.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] silentecho13:
Meh.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jocarog:
Mine is not even close to that...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] silentecho13:
Wish mine looked more like that. My phone doesn't sleep at all after the nk3 update.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] vengeance1281:
Here are mine on 2 separate days. The one that has the small bump in the middle of the day was when I had to plug it in to load some music and movies onto it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] whmgreen:
Very happy here!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] insang-droid:
those of you having issues after the update.. have you tried going in to recovery and clearing the cache partition?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] asjshenry:
I found that if 8 disable untitled dameon and don't use the Samsung weather widget, I get excellent battery life. Less than 1% per hour drain.

That'll do pig, that'll do.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] collinstheclown:
Rocking the new Zerolemon battery. Still have to do a few cycles to get it settled in, the start of the chart is 77%, forgot to write that in. Lost 1% over night, and 47% last to moderate use. After it gets settled in hit it hard with some solid ingress amd Pandora :D:D

I do use Wallpaper Changer - Google Play Store Link - maybe that's causing it?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Clienterror:
I have GPS off, BT on always , WiFi on always NFC off, screen brightness on auto. I have maybe 90 apps installed with Facebook (no messenger).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] xlr8shun:
I also use this particular wallpaper changer. But i use it to change wallpaper on unlock only and disable the other options. I dont see this program using all that much battery. I actually cannot find it running on my device unless i look in cached processes which doesnt give much info.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Orito:
Not there today, but battery still not great.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Mad383Max:
What was your screen on time? If it was an hour or close to it, that isn't that bad.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Orito:
Not entirely sure actually... I know it was on and off due to testing different things... Of course, this phone is still new to me - I'm obsessed with messing with it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Mad383Max:
Just checking knowledge here: you do know that when you are on the screen you posted if you touch where it says ' screen', it will give you details on screen time. Post your battery stats screen shot and the 'screen usage' screens hot and we will have a better idea if something is amiss.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Orito:
Yes, I'm aware of that - but by the time your reply came yesterday, 1/4th of the day had passed - it would have done me no good at that point to put up that statistic... That, and by that point I had been doing stuff with ADB so my phone was charging.

In another ~4 hours I'll put up another screenshot after I go about normal usage.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Zer()C00L:
I'm having drainage issues. I'm going to try and disable unified daemon, even though I use weather, my battery isn't doing as good as most.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
I don't know how this happened.. But after I reverted to the stock image, i didn't have time to put in the commands to disable OTA update and it kept popping up as I was boarding my flight so I just did the update, figuring I'd just re-flash to stock when I land. Instead I left it... And.... Here are my usages in Chicago and Milwaukee from Tuesday to today. This is insane I don't know how this happened. The only difference is I didn't have my normal use of screen time (usually a bit more like 5-6 hours in a day) but this still got 4 hours although it was over the course of 2 days. And again this is with the update. Here are the screen shots
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] djmouse:
This is my best results EVER,I can't even believe it.Stock battery,I have a thread on what I did to fix my drain,its defenatly working.

Still 3 percent left see if I make 12h SOT.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Zer()C00L:
I'm getting this now......

I'm hoping it has something to do with me just getting done fully charging.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] NYYFan02:
I wouldn't take much stock in battery results after 1% or so drain...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
You gotta tell us man, how do you get the screen on time! I read your thread about the drain you were having. But geez. I basically just text and do a little fb, gotta know your secrets anything you can share.

Read that,and read threw the comments to see if you have the same issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
When I first read through your post I disabled the message sync but I actually don't think I had that issue before. I have all the same bloatwear disabled as well. Below are my recent battery usages. Not the best :(
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] djmouse:
Have you done a factory reset since updating to NK3?If so two other things I've done is,turn off auto brightness I set my slider at halfway,and go to display settings set your screen time out to 10 mins,I used to use 30 seconds but I read a lot on here and other fourms and don't use smart stay,so the screen dimming or turning off then me having to touch it to bring it up,was killing my battery,better to just be able to kill your screen when your done and have it lock with power key.That alone has given me almost 2 more hours SOT.

Also take a shot of the graph enlarged,just click on it and it expands, let's see how your mobile and WiFi are.Myn are usually terrible,if I had a constant WiFi or all green mobile my batter time would increase even more.

---------- Post added at 01:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:44 AM ----------

See today I'm at around 70 percent left with a little over 2 hours SOT but look,my WiFi was off all day,and my screen wakes are good there consistent with when my screen is on,all the little ones are notifications,I don't turn off any of my syncing or notifications,I don't need to my battery is doing excellent.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Gordonson:
I got my AT&T Note 4 on the 30th and haven't gotten great lengths of battery life at all so far.

I usually keep my screen brightness just above the very lowest setting, but I've recently switched to auto when I realized that my screen habits haven't been helping me anyway, so I might as well truly enjoy the screen. I'm wondering if I may have messed things up for myself by not charging the phone when I got it until later that day when it was pretty much dead.

I know the QHD screen is no small task to power, but man, this is my sole disappointment outside of the locked bootloader.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Clienterror:
Finally broke 8 hours SOT in normal day with no battery savings of any kind yay. Syncing on, about 90 apps installed, WiFi on BT off. No Facebook messenger installed.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] acts4:12:
The Android System/OS in my battery stats screen is very high (android system is almost as high as the screen).

When I overlay my CPU usage on the screen com.android.systemui seems to always be on top and consuming CPU cycles. Anyone have any idea why the system is consuming so much juice?

I have disabled as much bloat ware as I possibly can and have location services and sync disabled the majority of the time. I don't know what else I can do. I used to be able to get between 3 and 4 hrs SOT with my nexus 5 which has a battery about half the size of the Note's battery. I have only been getting maybe 4 hrs of SOT after the NK3 update. With the huge battery in this phone there shouldnt be a reason why i cant hit at least 6 hrs SOT. Any help is greatly appreciated.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] acts4:12:
I think I finally have the settings figured out to where it has fixed my battery life problems. [emoji4]
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
What are those settings? What did you do or change? Things you disabled? Can I see a picture of your signal strength and WiFi on time etc (just click the graph)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] acts4:12:
I always keep location turned off unless i need it. Auto brightness was on. Virtually all bloat ware is disabled. Enhanced 4g LTE is disabled. Always allow scanning under WiFi menu is disabled. Send security reports under security menu disabled. All motions and gestures disabled. Samsung weather widget not used. I only sync a handful of Google apps that I use, all others are disabled.

What worked for me is to power down the phone and then restart it after applying all my settings. Previous to this my battery life was terrible and it's like my phone wouldn't sleep at all.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
This 5.0 needs to come soon. I don't know how much longer I can take stats like this
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Mad383Max:
Not sure it would give you the change you want. Looking at what you posted, having the screen on for 2 hours and 24 minutes out the total time is not that bad. Especially with the Tinder app being so high. It uses GPS so every time it checks you location it is eating into your battery pretty heavily. Try turning that app off and see how well you do on your next charge.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] xlr8shun:
My gf just bought the white version from att this weekend. She got home and I checked it was still on NIE.

I was sick and tired of battery life with NK3 so I took the opportunity to reflash back to NIE. Pleased to report that although I had 30% battery left I am sure I could have reached 6 hours SOT. Much better than my 2-3 hours on NK3.

Should have just flashed back to NIE the first time..

edit: had some issues with images showing up.. not sure what happened..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
I just backed up everything myself, and am going to wipe and reset back to the pre-NKE image from the forum. Then disable OTA and wait till it's posted on here that 5.0 is out for us.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Mad383Max:
These are a couple of my recent charge cycles. I was getting 4 to 5 hours of SOT until I turned off HD voice over lte like someone suggested earlier in this thread. Getting 6 to 8 hours SOT now. Just depends on how much tethering/data downloading I do now.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
First day back on NIE, this is with a bunch of music playing even with screen off (the horrible reception is me on a plane. But even with the reboot, and bad signal from flying, first cycle goes about 7 hours SOT and 15h overall. I mean come on. This is sexy lol. And with Bluetooth running for a lot of this (headphones)
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] xlr8shun:
Glad you finally got things back to normal.. it's amazing how my battery life almost doubles with the NIE rom vs the NK3..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Mad383Max:
I don't have a Facebook account(if I read your statement correct saying to uninstall the app and let you know). I always have my wife and kids use Facebook through a browser and not the app though.

By the way, I am on NK3. Battery life has been better on this firmware for me. This is with GPS, Bluetooth on always.

Also, there are so many variables to individual phone environments that it is hard to quantify why some get better or worse battery life. Yesterday I had 1 hour 25 minutes of SOT over 6.5 total hours unplugged and was at 39%. The main difference was I was tethering my Surface Pro 2 through the phone for 6 of those hours. If I just looked at the numbers as presented without mentioning the tethering, I would be up in arms on how terrible my battery life was. Excessive data downloading and uploading also affects it pretty hard. On days that I use .75 to 1.5gb of data, I can kill the battery in 12 hours and only get 3 hours of SOT.

Sorry for the book. Guess what I am saying is that any 2 phones that are set up the exact same way can get completely different results depending on the environment they are use in and how they are used. I am not even bringing in signal strength and all the the other radio variables.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hyukki:
So ever since I got my phone, I'd never done a factory reset. Yesterday I was going to revert back to NIE because Android System was starting to wake my phone up very frequently. I ended up just doing 5 factory resets in a row and 5 cache wipes from recovery, downloaded all the apps and went to sleep. I think this is the best idle I've ever had. I believe I lost about 4% in 7 hours. Amazing.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
I reverted back to NIE. Deleted Facebook messenger and Facebook app. And got 1d12h and 5h42m SOT. I mean come on it doesn't get much better than that!! I should have come back from NK3 a bit ago. Going to do a day with higher screen usage and no overnight. And then do a day with fb back on, maybe one with messenger.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Hoshneer:
My battery has been draining a lot lately and I can't figure it out. I even tried a reset yesterday. Do these battery stats look off to you?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] hyukki:
Yeah it looks odd. Could you click on the graph and show us the graph page?

BTW this is what it should look like. I had to turn up the brightness for a bit during the time so SOT could've been better!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Hoshneer:
Here is the graph.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
Yeah man look at your awake bar compared to your screen on. If start with all of the 4 app icons I can see in the top left corner telling me there are certainly things running in the background. I would stsrt by turning the lookout anti virus off. You need to take a look at the apps you're actually using. You are running some things that aren't letting your phone sleep when the screen is off.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Hoshneer:
I added lookout because of the issue so it is probably something else. I was also having issues with my wifi at the same time. Whenever I turn it on it constantly uploads and it's not an app that I can tell. I thought maybe a Google service issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
Im going to go through my phone and list all the things I do right when I restore:

- Go to Settings > Wifi > Settings > Advanced > Change "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" to Always, and turn off allways allow scanning

- Go to Settings > Location > and change to Powersaving, or leave on High and only turn it on when you want to run Maps etc

- Go to Settings > NFC > Off

- Go to Settings > Nearby Devices/Screen Mirroring > Off

(Heres one for you) - Go to Settings > Google > Click your account > Uncheck everything (I leave contacts) or I remember to before i wipe come in, check it and sync)

I never run power saving, will have to test one day with that. I have Tapatalk for XDA, I have Facebook with notifications, I have my personal email through IMAP and my work Microsoft Exchange account pushing emails. And you've seen my stats. Here is today. Again I can get 7 hours SOT on about 16h total. Look at my awake VS screen on time in my attatched image too. They are almost the same. Thats how yours should be. I would say you need to look at the apps your using, and maybe disable some bloat. I will also Include Images for what I disabled. I will add ll pictures from my phone in a followup message. Let me know if any of these things help!!

I am on NK3.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
I don't think that's completely your issue, but you can scroll back for my posts with NKE (also on the NKE thread) and how much worse my battery was with it. Not like yours which I still feel is an app or setting. But you can see all my stats reverting back to NIE. I'd say fins your current issue, test, and then compare to us who went back and see if you should too
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] Hoshneer:
Yeah, it's definitely NKE. I did a restore and turned off all the blast and it still doing it. Bummer...

Snapdragon :D this was before I did the major tweaks (deep sleep at 80+% or more).. I'll post a "1 min" CPU Spy test for you now..

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=57988924&postcount=1012
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] michsu:
Deep sleep of 85% for 1 minute 44 seconds.. (effective 93% including 300mhz, which is minimal)... notice nothing is above 1267mhz.. The only thing I did that affects features is to limit the location to "power saving".. everything else is turned on, including NFC, including sync for email (I use "Nine" for 3 emails, two personal, one work Exchange), notifications and unread badge numbers.. I have disabled all the bloat software, but none that remove functionality for the phone (things like removal of S-Pen, Google stuff).. If you remove the google stuff, what's the point of having these features (like google contacts, sync, calendar, email).. some people remove these though.. I don't get it..
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] jokesonme:
Would you like to go over your major tweaks? That would be very helpful and I am sure we would all be greatful! I did read your comments against the auto brightness and will be testing that myself as well.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note 4] michsu:
ok =) sure.. (I'll update this post as I go along..)

I tried things like DU Battery, DS Battery (Deep Sleep), Clean Master, and a few others..

The longest one I have tried is DS Battery for a long time.. Basically, because it has the only "deep sleep" function that turns off all the apps (of course, as well as the toggle stuff like wifi, mobile data, location, but everyone else has that) after 15 seconds when screen it turned off.. but when I ran the GSAM and Battery Doctor Pro, I noticed I still got a lot of wakelocks.. I used Greenify to slowly cut one by one (or a few at a time, haha I got lazy) and found out that these "battery saver" apps don't help.. they actually tend to hurt and not let the device maintain "deep sleep".. so currently, I only have "Greenify" to shut down all the "GCM" ones that show up ( of course, I leave some on, like WeChat, and Nine for emails.. but the gaming stuff and other apps I don't tend to use all the time, they get hibernated).. YOU DON"T NEED ANYTHING ELSE to help with battery saving.. I use GSAM (for their app sucker) and just start from the top.. freeze what you don't need all the time (like what I said above).. and just use CPU Spy to find out about the "deep sleep".. I managed to get a 90+% once, but normally they are just above 80%.. let's see what I can do.. I'll post another CPU Spy "deep sleep" so people won't say I cheated, haha..

I noticed that a lot of games have that "push" notifications.. they eat up a lot of battery just having their notifications up all the time.. try to freeze those, they help a lot.. I have 4 games now installed, but just froze them so they don't keep popping up..

if you need me to post anything else, I'll do that.
