Before i had s6 i bought note 4 that give a few problems that i change 2 notes then sick of it i change for the s6 that i regret. , and now have a second hand note 4 excellent.

When we buy in a mobile store we have invoice with 2 years warranty and if you like to make a insurance they do.

But in the 30days you can change it.

Even with the warranty you can if you know how to do it.

Mine s6 went to warranty a month ago to put a new screen, and i complain from the battery too.

They put the new screen and the battery.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ohhdayumm:
My stats. I basically can never kill my phone before i sleep.
[Galaxy Note5 General] nvrmndryo:
Manual brightness, power saving mode on.

The empty line is when my phone was updating.

I think this not great battery life I m getting.
[Galaxy Note5 General] nvrmndryo:
Yesterday I received new update. After that my battery life drastically improved. Here are screenshots.

50% of time power saving on. Manual brightness.

Fb, what's app. Net browsing. Clash of clans and one movie. While sleeping turned off wifi and data.
[Galaxy Note5 General] dallasmanic:
over 3000mah , it lasts like 1 day for me
[Galaxy Note5 General] aldoblaga:
I m really happy. Stock mm, xposed, skyhigh 3.4
[Galaxy Note5 General] Darkii89:
could you please upload skyhigh 3.4 as the developer discountinued the project and deleted the download links.
[Galaxy Note5 General] aldoblaga:
I only have the 920t version, sorry...
[Galaxy Note5 General] buton2:
my battery sucks it will drain 10% in 30 minutes....

where i work is like a bunker and 4G lte is really weak... it constantly switches between 4G and LTE.. could that be the problem? or how can i tell whats the problem, gsam battery monitor and other apps have not help to solve the issue.
[Galaxy Note5 General] nvrmndryo:
Simply put your phone to emergency mode /flight mode for an hour and see if it still drains that amount of battery, if not then your network is the culprit.
[Galaxy Note5 General] buton2:
i ll try that once i charge it back so far

7 hrs 19 min on battery. 1 hour 17 minutes of screen time and i am now sitting at 26% of battery.

any other suggestions?
[Galaxy Note5 General] hinnn:
Maybe it's deep sleep issue, a lot of SAMSUNG owners have same issue including me after upgraded to 6.0.1. Not only NOTE5.

System will stay awake and won't go to deep sleep.
[Galaxy Note5 General] buton2:
i put it on fly mode. over 3 hours it drain 2% so i guess that is fine......

so it must be the 4g and 4g lte switching or looking for better signal.
[Galaxy Note5 General] ksr007:

What is the "APP SUCKER" that I see in the screen shots? There is a new update out on my Verizon Note 5 today and my battery life already sucks after the MM update. I would like to get a better view of what's killing my battery.
[Galaxy Note5 General] rasel800:
Hello Guys,

Just found something which may be helpful and i thought i shall share my experience with all.

May be it has already been discussed, i didn't read through all the posts and apologies for that if so.

My battery life was good and phone was serving till 8-9pm from morning with full charge.

From last week suddenly it was terrible and battery was dyeing by 3-4pm having the same daily use.

I did factory reset and also rooted to investigate further to see what is killling it.

Problem is, different app presents battery consumption diffently and it is hard to identify what actually is the problem.

Nevertheless, eventually i concluded something is wrong with Google Play Services although it was NOT reported directly by most of the apps as the main battery drainer. Instead most of the apps were indicating Android OS as the battery drainer.

So what i did is, uninstalled Play Services, cleared Play Services Cache, reboot and reinstalled the Play Services update.

And that was it! Now battery is back to really good, 1:30pm and only 30% drained.

Hope it helps...
[Galaxy Note5 General] nihonjintaylor:
Will try out the play service advice and report back :)
[Galaxy Note5 General] b4u2:
I'm not rooted but I did a factory reset and let all the apps update themselves. My battery life is still bad. 3.5 hours SOT with brightness as low as I can stand it. I did clear the Play Services cache but I could not seem to install the updates to go back to factory version.
[Galaxy Note5 General] rasel800:
You need to uninstall Play Service (disable Android Device Manager from Device Adminstrator first, otherwise you can't uninstall Play Services), clear Play Services Cache, Reboot, and then install Play Services update...
[Galaxy Note5 General] b4u2:
Just figured out how to do that and I am testing it out now. Thank you
[Galaxy Note5 General] Kyrillos:
Guys please see my stats. Seems to me quite disappointing. Charged my note 5 (9200), with stock MM and skyhigh kernel, and left it from 21:00 until 7:00 without using it. Actually wanted to test if doze works. Phone lost 25%! Most of it seems from radio. Any suggestions ? Also one thing that I've noticed the wifi doesn't turn off, although I've set it to Always on only during charging.
[Galaxy Note5 General] b4u2:
I lost 11% very quickly. Here are the ss. I was mostly casting netflix to chromecast.
[Galaxy Note5 General] nvrmndryo:
This is what I get usually

My phone drains around 15-20% overnight if I keep wifi /mobile data on. If I keep it off then I lose around 2-5%.

I am always in power saving mode, 90%wifi, manual brightness as per need. Clash of clans, fb, what's app and some browsing.

Any tips to improve?

* I saw measure Google play battery drain even when I don't update or install anything, how to stop Google play when not using?
[Galaxy Note5 General] LiL_Assassin:
The best thing you could do is download better battery stats. My device drains at at 0.7% p/h
[Galaxy Note5 General] miguelazo86:
Work for me too. Thanks a lot.

Just 1% of google. I was playing all day and i getting 4hs screen.

Before this metod 2 1/2 . 3 hs screen. Thanks thanks.

[Galaxy Note5 General] miguelazo86:
Is this ok? In 7hrs go from 100% to 83% at night without use.

Enviado desde mi SM-N920I mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy Note5 General] nvrmndryo:
Even I get the same % of drain overnight. I keep wifi/data on all the time. I tried turning wifi/data off overnight and it was only 5% of battery drain, so point is keeping it wifi or data on drains lot of battery even on standby mode.
[Galaxy Note5 General] stanleybb50:
For those of you guys getting good/great battery life (Note 4 and/or 5).. Do you:

-Have Google Now voice detection on or off?

-Location History on or off?

-Location on GPS only, Battery saving, or Off entirely?

Just curious... I seem to only get decent battery life and keep "Android System" and "Kernel" at bay if I turn off all of the above mentioned things... And I hate not getting to experience those features.. Know what I mean? I swear my battery is awful if those are on... Even if it's in battery saving GPS mode..
[Galaxy Note5 General] NamelessFragger:
Good to hear it's at least getting decent battery life out of the gate, though the real test will be to see how long it holds up after two years - something the Galaxy S3 completely failed at. I'm talking "can barely last 4-6 hours in standby with maybe 30 minutes SOT" bad, and it's why I'm hesitant to deal with anything that requires me to take a heat gun to the back just to get to the battery. (Not to mention that if you don't mind a little extra thickness, you can get an extended battery!)

However, there's still several variables at work. I'm finding that Wi-Fi is definitely one of them, as my Note 4's standby battery life really nosedives with it on ever since I got my new router.

I don't know if it's the use of 802.11ac 5 GHz, or that it's an RT-AC87 (kinda infamous for Android battery drain to the point where I installed DD-WRT to try and get around it), or maybe something to do with all that Google Play Services syncing, but it definitely holds up better on cellular data of all things.
[Galaxy Note5 General] cricketgirl90:
Wud Def get note 5.. battery life looks good for my use.. my note 4 manages only 4 hrs of SOT..

Wud wait for price drop then get 64gb version
[Galaxy Note5 General] folusmile:
I dont know y people are jumping the gun. You don't say battery life is good at first use or something. Use it for a week or two before you know the power of your battery. Not in haste will wait for two weeks and see peoples comment
[Galaxy Note5 General] Darknightkiller:
With normal use and every feature on...
[Galaxy Note5 General] rushless:
The battery life differences are probably due mainly to how many apps a person uses that leverage the GPU and max it out. Not just 3D games leverage it.

The display on the Note 5 is a little more efficient than the already great Note 4 display. Even Display Mate was surprised since expected it to be the same.
[Galaxy Note5 General] hello00:
my note 4 gets more with only 50% screen time use..and thats only texting and listening to music..try browsing, netflix, texting, calling..24% screen time seems to me like you havent used it a lot
[Galaxy Note5 General] Kaboose666:
It's a 14nm SoC instead of 20nm like the SD805 in the Note4, also the display uses 20% less power while being 18-23% brighter.

The note5 is going to have better batttery life than the note4, its kinda just a fact.
[Galaxy Note5 General] hello00:
the note 4 can still outperform the note 5 as it has removable battery...it could go from 0 to 100 instantly..people are averaging 7.5 hrs of sot and i can average between 8 and 11 hours of sot
[Galaxy Note5 General] DrexelDragon:
So I got my TMo Note 5 today. When I turned it on it had about 25% battery. I took the next 3 hours to try and kill it as quickly as possible, checking out all the features, downloading and updating all apps, setting everything up, syncing emails, etc...

Here's the usage:

Here's the SOT:

Pretty good considering I used it pretty much the whole time. That translates to about 9 hours of SOT if I had continuous usage. That type of life is astonishing to me as every phone I've had I've never been able to get that kind of screen on time.

Granted that was the first rundown of the battery so we shall see how it fares now.

Here are some charging times I captured as well, from 0%:

20 minutes: 35%

40 minutes: 70%

65 minutes: 91%

80 minutes: 97%
[Galaxy Note5 General] cloudraker:
I would like to know what Display Mode people are using when they post their results. My phone should be here soon and one thing i noticed (whether it was the placebo effect or not) was that on my Note 4, my battery life seemed to improve drastically when i switched from Adaptive to Basic. So, thats a setting i change immediately anymore on my Galaxy devices but i am curious if anyone else sees a benefit from it.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Slie:
I absolutely love the amount of time I get from this battery on my phone.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Shudder123:
screen time?
[Galaxy Note5 General] mix1987:
Testament to the display efficiency of the Note 5. Finished an ebook today with low usage of internet and moderate usage on spotify.

20 percent left. 10 hours SOT no problem but decided to sleep instead. Its 2am local time. Good night guys.
[Galaxy Note5 General] alex9898:
Ebooks are not so good to test battery life.

Back to my S4, I tried to read the entire Alexandre Dumas's bibliography and I was having usually more than 10h SOT per days during holidays.

Never read that much since but I'm pretty sure that all recent phones will give you incredible SOT reading ebooks.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Barkleyfan:
My concern isn't the performance on day 1. My concern is the performance on day 400. My xt912 lasted 48 hours on a charge on day 1. 500 days in, I couldn't get 6 hours out of a charge.
[Galaxy Note5 General] InfamousDX:
I agree with you here. Previously, I used to be obsessed with battery life like everyone else but now I've just made some slight adjustments to my daily workflow and battery life is a non-issue. Yes there are exceptions when I'd love long lasting battery but for the most part, this works for me.
[Galaxy Note5 General] mi7chy:
I don't have any concerns. I'm still using the original battery in 2012 Note II and the battery is still strong. I'm sure battery technology and reliability have improved even further since then.
[Galaxy Note5 General] alex9898:
That's right. The French consumers association has recently published results that go in this direction.

After more than 300 charge cycles, the tested devices had lost less than 1% of battery capacity.

But with time there is some cells oxydation that reduces the battery capacity. Unfortunately, it's hard to measure how hard it impacts the battery capacity.
[Galaxy Note5 General] aaronc_98:
What settings are you guys using? I am getting crappy SOT and only about 10 hours. It is only my second charge but I was expecting more. thougts?
[Galaxy Note5 General] nvrmndryo:
My latest battery stats.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Doccod:
FOr me also
[Galaxy Note5 General] b4u2:
Very nice battery life and screen on time nvrmndryo

I just reverted back to Lollipop last night. If battery life is still bad then there is something wrong with my phone. I get about 3.5 hours SOT since MM update.
[Galaxy Note5 General] nvrmndryo:
Check which apps drains ur battery most? How's ur cell network?
[Galaxy Note5 General] b4u2:
I'm on Verizon but I work in a building that does not really allow very good signal. I am on wifi pretty much all day. Typically my signal for cell is 1x
[Galaxy Note5 General] MrMike2182:
If you're on WiFi you should just disable data because it's not going to stop you from getting calls or texts.. I have my own personal kernel and other settings and I get good battery life. This photo is from today.
[Galaxy Note5 General] b4u2:
Are you still on Verizon service? How are you running a custom kernel if you are on Verizon?

I used to root all the time but back on Verizon I am stuck. I love the Verizon coverage but hate that I can't root and the high cost of my bill. Still have 1.5 years left on this contract but when it's up I might just have to go back to Sprint.
[Galaxy Note5 General] MrMike2182:
Yes I'm on Verizon and I'll give more information at another time when I'm ready.
[Galaxy Note5 General] b4u2:
It's good to know that someone is still working on this.

I turned mobile data off after your suggestion so I will see how that affects my battery as well. I used debloat for a "few" Verizon things plus others that I know will not cause me any issues. The debloat list is no where near as extreme as I had been running on MM.
[Galaxy Note5 General] MrMike2182:
I've been working on it mostly alone for months and months and I've broken 3 phones already lol.. Seems to me that no one's willing to take the risk of breaking their phone which is why I don't have any help and since I'm in the Military I don't exactly have tons of time but the time I do have I try to work on it 2100 dollars later the Verizon bounty means nothing standing at 1800!
[Galaxy Note5 General] InteliDroid:
My battery life has also dropped to 3.5 hours SOT since the MM Update... I've tried everything from going to a custom rom, flashing stock firmware etc... It used to be 5 hours minimum for my battery life...
[Galaxy Note5 General] MrMike2182:
Are you on Verizon too? Did you factory reset before the ota?
[Galaxy Note5 General] InteliDroid:
I'm on an unlocked variant. N920I. Shouldn't they technically still work the same way.
[Galaxy Note5 General] MrMike2182:
Not necessarily because they all have different firmwares on them and that dictates your battery life. If the firmware has an unseen issue that runs in the background it'll kill the battery like that. Since you're on a variant that can be rooted and a different kernel and rom can be used I'd look into that but only if you don't care whether your Knox gets tripped or not. Also if you have the screen brightness all the way up it will kill the battery too!!
[Galaxy Note5 General] miguelazo86:
I was reading that the kernel sky for n920c its for c/cd/i/g?? It is ok?

Enviado desde mi SM-N920I mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy Note5 General] ksr007:
yes ! running good on c/cd/i/g, too !
[Galaxy Note5 General] b4u2:
I keep my screen brightness at about 1/4 of the bar at nearly all times. When I sit outside for lunch (30 minutes) I use auto brightness.
[Galaxy Note5 General] miguelazo86:
How i flash this kernel?? First i need recovery right!?

Enviado desde mi SM-N920I mediante Tapatalk
[Galaxy Note5 General] ksr007:
yes ! Install TWRP recovery then SuperSU v2.74. After that You can install custom kernels .
[Galaxy Note5 General] bonerp:
Made no difference to me unfortunately but thanks for the idea.

[Galaxy Note5 General] rainyyy:
Is my battery really bad? I mostly use my phone with 4G and the screen on time I mostly get is between to 3 hours to 3 and half hours and when gaming it's only about mostly 2 hours at most. Everything is off other than the data and. Also my themes and almost everything is color black even the keyboard and already disable apps with Package Disabler. Even tried clearing the cache partition and still the same. Btw I'm non-rooted.
[Galaxy Note5 General] cavags5:
If you have marshmallow already., just do a factory reset., and forget the package disabler , with M only mess with the system. Disable all the apps system let you , google apps, and other settings and you will get better
[Galaxy Note5 General] ram4ufriends:
Sometimes I realized debloating a lot of apps is causing battery drain as well..I would suggest to do a factory rest and don't debloat for couple of days and see how battery life is.. mine is also 4 hours as my network is very bad...how is your network?
[Galaxy Note5 General] nvrmndryo:
In my opinion debloating does not make major difference, check your network, and if you are using old sim card,, change it.
[Galaxy Note5 General] bonerp:
I've also noticed no major improvement debloating. This device is fast and doesn't need it, unlike slower/older devices that used to benefit from it.
[Galaxy Note5 General] rainyyy:
I have done a factory reset and the condition of my screen on time is now averaging to 4 and half hours to 5 and that's with 4G maybe if it's on WIFI I can reach 6 hours but I'm curious how many hours of SOT would rooting extend? Both 4G and WiFi.
[Galaxy Note5 General] dieselhazza:
Hi guys which rom would give the best battery life. Also is it recommended to use auto brightness for better battery life? What tips would you recommend for best battery life? Is it worth rooting and installing a custom rom
[Galaxy Note5 General] yash kariya:
Just bought note 5 week ago getting excellent battery life

Did a factory reset after marshmallow

24 hours stand by with 5 hrs sot

Usage light to moderate

Fb,webbrowse, youtube, whatsapp, emails, feeds

Little bit of angry birds 2 and mini militia

Few calls

Mostly on wifi 90 percent. :)

---------- Post added at 08:09 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:08 AM ----------

I think stock rom is pretty much snappy and good performance.
[Galaxy Note5 General] sionyboy:
After two weeks of usage my average stats from Gsam are:

17h55min battery life

4h23min screen on time (5hr44m max)

Factory reset after update to latest firmware, debloated with package disabler Pro.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ohhdayumm:
Custom kernel would probably make a big difference and maybe a debloated rom.
[Galaxy Note5 General] MooseMan01:
whats the story with the calculated power usage?

looking at SOT posts the numbers given by battery stats in various places are all over the map, indicating total power use anywhere from 1600 to 2900 MaH (Screen MaH/screen%*100) is this simply an issue of apps not being reported/included properly into the calculations?
[Galaxy Note5 General] dieselhazza:
So how much of a difference does it make? Are you using custom rom
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ohhdayumm:
Currently not because i got the phone and i dont really have the need to root especially when i lose warranty and android pay. I may root in the future if needed though ! Sorry i cant help you with which kernel or rom to choose. I heard that arter kernel is pretty good and any debloated rom that you can find for mote 5 is pretty good. Maybe look into those?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Cool Person:
While Gaming and Browing the Web I get 4:45 SOT - 5 Hours of SOT.

My Phone Survives until Midnight under moderate usage.

Standby Drain is 1/1.5% Per Hour.

And while screen is on its about 1 percent per 3 minutes.

This is at 100% Brightness by the way

GPS OFF / Bluetooth OFF / NO Power saving mode active.

Impressive I must say.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Cool Person:
This is my standby battery statstics using app called battery drain analyser.
[Galaxy Note5 General] ABuSma7a:
do you think fast charger harm battery ?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Cool Person:
I don't think so
[Galaxy Note5 General] Maheshzx:
Standy drain is too high,totally battery life sucks,
[Galaxy Note5 General] LiL_Assassin:
Highly uninformative.

My drain us 0.4% p/h. Depends on the rom.. I can make it about 4-5 minutes per %.. Look up some guides on battery savings
[Galaxy Note5 General] Cool Person:
Marshmellow its better

Are you running marshmellow or lolipop?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Maheshzx:
I'm running. Marshmallow with January security patch,even on power saving mode it drains like a normal note 5 would do overnight, if turned off iy drains hugely
[Galaxy Note5 General] Cool Person:
Try usinf package disabler pro
[Galaxy Note5 General] Maheshzx:
Tried it unfortunately it's same as before
[Galaxy Note5 General] Cool Person:
I might send you my XML if you want.

Mine drains about 1 percent per 2 hours overnight.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Cool Person:
Here is my Standby Package disabler pro profile. Import it to your package disabler pro.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Maheshzx:
Thanks Bro,I imported it,I'll tell you the result soon.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Cool Person:
I hope it gives you good resaults.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Cool Person:
This was the resaults of my XML Profile.

As you can see almost after 2 hours I only lose 1 percent standby ofcourse.

I hope you can get similar resaults...

Please report back your resaults.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Brenopin:
I have a Galaxy Note 5 and I have only 3hs about SOT. On overnight my Note 5 is consuming about 1.5% per hour. My battery life runs for about 13 to 15 hrs.

I have everything on: (location history, Device Manager, Google Now Voice On, Location, Wifi, Bluetooth, Screen about 30%, etc)

Galaxy Note 5 running Marshmallow.

I am not able to post links yet, so gonna try to post images from my batteery later.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ohhdayumm:
Currently losing around 2-5% overnight. Usually airplane mode on but wifi on. I did that cause i have bad reception in my basement.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Ohhdayumm:
My idle is oka but sot has decreased quite alot. I used to get 6hrs and maybe even push 7 but now im getting 3-4. Currently at 1:37hrs sot at 61%.
[Galaxy Note5 General] nvrmndryo:
I am Losing like 25% in night.
[Galaxy Note5 General] :
I have rooted my device and using nougat custom rom and battery life is bit improved than it was on stock 6.0.1.. As far my device is passed year, there is slight decrease in battery life then too i get 3.5-4 hrs SOT afterall it depends on custom rom with kernel, app usage,data utilisation and many things..
