Ah, its been off the charger for about 9 hours
[Galaxy Note5 General] Kaboose666:
i'm currently at 13.5 hours off the charger with 2 hours SOT and 62% battery left. Brightness around 40%.
[Galaxy Note5 General] nsugleris:
great

I've been getting great battery life on my end considering the smaller battery.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Shudder123:
My first actual discharge. Though it started at 95% instead of 100%. Restarted a couple times too but looking good.

Will be able to get over 6hr sot. With a good 16hr + usage.

Let's see if this is just as good as my xperia z3 that I just retired lol.

Don't have volte, AFAIK, I have the international model. There is an HD icon in the corner in calls, though. If it is volte, where is the setting?

Are you guys draining your batteries to less than 5 or 10 percent every cycle? I was under the assumption this was not good for the battery and that it was better to, when possible, keep the battery in between 30-90 percent.
[Galaxy Note5 General] m3lover1:
My radio percentage is huge. Not sure how negatively it impacts battery, but very annoying to see. Wonder if my battery will be better if that is somehow lower.
[Galaxy Note5 General] falcons2:
I have been getting pretty good battery life so far. The only thing that is causing it to take a hit is the android system draining my battery when the phone is not in use
[Galaxy Note5 General] niftyguy239:
Still have 50% more life left to go! Loving it!
[Galaxy Note5 General] tee00max:
Since everyone loves SOT. Ran mine dry today. Been on it heavy today.
[Galaxy Note5 General] samdroid24:
What did you do to get those stats?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Word_play:
I have similar stats
[Galaxy Note5 General] niftyguy239:
Package Disabler Pro (I used XML files from other people posted and disable pretty much all apps and system processes that don't involve my regular tasks and anything that I don't use at least 3 times a day, enable as needed) Clean Master Pro (smart battery charging, and kills apps running in the background when I shut my screen off), Screen less then 20 when not on auto, 90% of time on auto except when indoors, my radios (WiFi, Bluetooth, NFC) are shut off unless I need them. I also shut off the S pen function that alerts you if your S Pen gets too far away. Advanced Calling 1.0 is enabled. I don't allow Google to scan for WiFi if its turned off and smart network switch is disabled. I use a plain Jane wall paper (our screens are AMOLED, so the less power (also known as color) it has to project the better).

And this is why I love Android. I can customize it to the exact way I want the device to perform. When I tell it to jump, it jumps. When I optimize it for my liking, it stays optimized and delivers great performance.

I've only used 2% since 0600 this morning and its 0726 now. Great stuff.
[Galaxy Note5 General] GiancarloMorr24:
Care to share your XML file? I'd like to give this a shot.
[Galaxy Note5 General] Juice3250:
Here is my battery life so far today.

In general, I believe that trying to chase this elusive SOT is futile. Battery life will vary based on a lot of different factors. I know this has been debated and discussed many times in many places online. But it is true. The only usage you can compare yours to is your own. Not others' usage.

However, I'm impressed so far with the battery and performance of this phone. Standby time still is at the top of the list and I may use the Debloater method to try and fix the standby drain. I did just delete Facebook and we'll see what difference that will make. Also I did just restrict background app data. I'm connected to WiFi basically 80-90% of the day throughout the week.
[Galaxy Note5 General] tee00max:
A little bit off topic real quick but could you please tell me what font you are using? Thanks!
[Galaxy Note5 General] Juice3250:
I'm using an app called ifont from the play store that allows you to install any fonts for free. The font is called Life's A Beach.
[Galaxy Note5 General] niftyguy239:
It depends on which carrier you are using. Mine is Verizon specific.

---------- Post added at 03:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:28 PM ----------

I see your using T mobile. Mine is Verizon specific. Im not sure if that's going to work.
[Galaxy Note5 General] rlsroufe:
It works across carriers. If an app to disable on the XML file isn't on the device it will just ignore that app and disable the ones that are present on the device. I'm on t mobile and people have tried the XML files I posted in the debloating thread on other carriers and it worked fine.
[Galaxy Note5 General] GiancarloMorr24:
Thank you both.
[Galaxy Note5 General] rlsroufe:
You have to turn it into a zip file first and then upload it. The list is good for me though. Thanks. I like to see what others are doing. Verizon sure does load up their phones with a lot of crap.
[Galaxy Note5 General] GiancarloMorr24:
Perhaps a dumb question but how do you run the zip file in Package Disabler? When I try to import the file, I have no option to find the zip file on my phone.
[Galaxy Note5 General] rlsroufe:
You have to unzip the file to view the xml file and then move the xml file to the /storage/emulated/0 section of sd card. I put instructions in first post of this thread here.
[Galaxy Note5 General] GiancarloMorr24:
Thank you.

Hey i have been getting really bad battery life. LIke 15m screen time for 10% batter. I'm on WiFi all the time at home using a RT-AC87 and the 5ghz band. Did you notie any improve switching to 2.4 ghz or should i switch to merlin or DD-WRT
[Galaxy Note5 General] rlsroufe:
I added a couple to my own list and Im liking the results so far - a little smoother perforamance than before. But some of the ones on your list I know can cause issues with certain apps and functions on the phone. Have you run into any issues? And make sure you have rebooted the phone, I didnt realize any problems were there until I ran into a boot loop once when I got too aggressive. Thanks again for sharing your list.
[Galaxy Note5 General] oneandroidnut:
Mine sucks
[Galaxy Note5 General] niftyguy239:
Not a problem. I have it saved as a zip but when I go to upload it, my phone only recognizes jpegs and PDFs. Weird.

Which system processes are you referring to? I originally did at one point with the gallery and settings menu. I went back and reenabled everything and started from scratch and so far. I haven't had any issues. Just superb performance and great battery life. I didn't realize until I just looked at 156 apps and processes disabled. Holy crap Samsung, my HTC had maybe 1/3rd of the redundancy or useless apps. But so far, I am in heaven.
[Galaxy Note5 General] samdroid24:
I've been using Package Diasbler Pro for the last 3 days, and it's awesome. Knew this application months ago, just didn't know how to properly use it lol

Ok so I think this my last battery post, this has been my best so far. Pretty sure I coulda hit 5hrs of SOT if i let it die
[Galaxy Note5 General] p3rsonman:
Is there any way to see the awake statistics on the battery graph in the settings? On all my other android phones I can just press on the graph and see all this info. Doesnt work on the note. I'm referring to this screen: [IMG="battery stats"]https://cdn1.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_asset/file/2888550/2014-12-30_2006.13.57.0.png[/IMG]

Is this feature gone from the note 5 or am I just missing it?
[Galaxy Note5 General] samdroid24:
I'm on the T-Mobile Variant. What Variant are you on? And how's your battery life? What I did, was disable a lot of bloat and some features I don't use with Package Diasbler Pro. I disabled Facebook and Facebook Messenger. Those apps are battery hogs. I turned off WiFi Calling and Voice over LTE. I use Dolphin Browser instead of Chrome. Chrome uses a lot of battery. I also use the Material Dark Theme and a Black Wallpaper. I installed Greenify and I Greenify most apps when not in use or when I know that I'm not going to be using my phone for a while. I also turn off Bluetooth and Location when not in use, and turned off 'Always Allow Scanning' in the WiFi > Advanced Settings. My Sync is off, I manually Sync when I want to. And I also turned off the OK Google detection in the Google Settings. I also try not to max out the brightness of the screen. I bring it down to where I'm comfortable with. Here's the guide where it shows you how & what to disable: http://xdaforums.com/note5/general/guide-bloating-touchwizzing-note-5-t3184563 Hope this helps!

EDIT: Just saw that you're using the SM-N920A model which is for AT&T. You should turn off 'Enhanced 4G LTE Services'. This drains battery... All it is, is HD Voice, similar to T-Mobile's Voice over LTE.

I was going to the 5+ hours but i had to go to bed
[Galaxy Note5 General] oneandroidnut:

Please forgive my ignorance but why would you put a Note 5 ROM on Galaxy S6 which has no SPEN ?
[Galaxy Note5 General] Agent-Droid:

[Galaxy Note5 General] rlsroufe:
Up time 25.5 hours with 20% brightness, location and Bluetooth on only when needed (use those notification toggles!) but off most of the time, and about 250 apps disabled using package disabled pro. I actually have a lot more ram available and scrolling is a lot smoother.
[Galaxy Note5 General] lawtq:
Those are some crazy good sot's! But anyone can get crazy good times like that by just leaving their screen on and not using the phone much which your breakdown shows. Looks like you've used it very lightly? Nothing intensive
[Galaxy Note5 General] rlsroufe:
Oooh I see how you might get that impression. Yeah thats how its supposed to look when you don't use a lot of battery intensive apps. I don't game and I didn't use chrome as much as I usually would. I just bumped around on twitter using Fenix and was researching around disabling apps using package disabler pro which has its own browser so didn't count as chrome use and was on the forums here and Android central reading and making posts using Tapatalk. Nothing intensive like you said. But the screen didn't just sit on either. Android system and os are always at the top after screen for me. Typically i do more web browsing. Last weekend i was getting 9-10 hours screen on time when I did more web browsing and had less packages enabled. During the week at work where i get crappy signal i have never gotten less than 6 hours. Screen on times arent that helpful because everyone uses their phone differently. I use my phone the way I want to use my phone and don't baby it, I just try to be smart about what apps and services I use. I was just posting to show what the phone is capable of.
[Galaxy Note5 General] rushless:
Because it is the main weight of battery use and the main reason besides app gpu use that results in the wild differences in battery life claims. You get people touting all day or more and they use their device like a non smart flip phone.

How can SOT not be a key weight of any trend?

The Note 5 gets generally good battery, in part thanks to an even more efficient display than the Note 4.
[Galaxy Note5 General] lawtq:
Lol sot is very important. How can people not understand why
[Galaxy Note5 General] JMat76:
This was with lighter than normal usage but just wanted to see how long I could go. Auto brightness, all location services enabled, 3 email accounts syncing automatically, and weather updating every hour.
[Galaxy Note5 General] egren58:
Heavy usage today alot of web browsing music and youtube also a bit of pool. Bluetooth, location, and wifi calling always on.. still managed to get home with 20%
[Galaxy Note5 General] Shudder123:
I'm getting 0.9%-1.0% per hour drain over night.

Is this normal? I've already used packaged disabler and disabled a lot but standby drain seems quite high.

Any one else have this issue?

I've attached a screenshot. Notice the awake time..
[Galaxy Note5 General] dlscott1111:
S Pen and Battery Life?

Was listening to "The tech Guy" Leo Laporte today. He is one of the many tech journalists who broke their Note 5 by putting the s pen in backwards. To get it to work with a broken s pen sensor, he turned off the feature that monitored whether the s pen has been deployed or not. Anyway, he said he was getting much better battery life by turning that feature off. Anyone else noticed better battery life by turning this feature off?
[Galaxy Note5 General] danon.brown:
What feature disables it?
[Galaxy Note5 General] dlscott1111:
I believe it's a feature called "s pen detection" or something like that. I don't have mine yet so i don't know for sure.
[Galaxy Note5 General] danon.brown:
I just found it when you posted. It clearly says it will be better for the battery. Thanks
[Galaxy Note5 General] aydink_1903:
I always turn it off. There are few things must turn off like this.

Exactly! I have been confused by this from day one. Is there any way to tell for sure? When in on position turns s pen detection on or off???
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] droid_1989:
With the additions yesterday, Samsung announced that wireless charging would be 120 minutes for full charge.

Do you think that the wireless charging dock which will come out with the Note and Edge+ phones would support the S6?

I want a wireless charger for convenience, but don't want to end up buying a normal mat when the newer ones will have fast charge.
[Galaxy S6 Accessories] Haesslich:
They're still using Qi from what I can tell, so it should work fine. The Qi fast charging spec is backwards compatible - while you won't get the 14W charging, it'll still do the regular Qi fine.

Yes, you can try to change your userland, distribution, GUI etc. But I don't think you can easily change Linux kernel (modified by Archos). As for Ubuntu, take a look at Ubuntu Touch or Plasma Mobile. But it may take a lot of work to anjust configurations etc. Yo may try to ask there:

[MX Player] Tyestor:
I'd like to ask you guys about the bugs surrounding "network streaming and buffering". Right now, it's impossible to watch anything transcoded (with, for example UMS) with MX Player because the video stops after about a minute, something to do with buffering. ler0y (a contributor to the UMS project) knows more about it, he explains a little bit more in this thread/post. Transcoding files is essential for someone like me who has a Nexus 7, it's very hard to watch Hi10p files on my device without frame drops which, as you might be aware, is very prevalent in the anime scene. The problem doesn't exist when streaming a file, only when transcoding.

Thanks for your time.
[MX Player] josuearisty:
This is reported alredy, its known that MXPlayer lacks of buffering.

I hope its solved soon.

Yes, I realise it has been reported. The bugs have been present since at least 2013 for me and, apparently, since at least 2010 for this person. At this, rate it doesn't seem like it will ever be fixed.
[MX Player] Thirumalai.K:
The developer is right now working on major upgrade which will improve network performance.

The issue is definitely well known, and the developer is working on it. As to when it will be released, well, that's for whenever he feels the fix is comprehensive.
[One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gmaietta:
Hi, I had a HTC ONE M7 and due to the fact I had to manage 2 SIM's I've bought the dual SIM version, a chinese 802W.

I'm lost because:

1. The phone is running Android 4.4.2 and there is no possibility to upgrade to 5.0 as I had on the normal M7 (actually there is no entry SW update in the Settings).

2. It is claimed to be Dual Active SIM but everytime I call the SIM2 it is always redirected to the voice mail. So I'm not reachable on SIM 2.

Do I have to change something or is this the normal behaviour?

Thank you.

UPDATE

I got Kingroot to root the zte speed!!!

but it doesnt keep root for very long. usually only stays rooted for a matter of minutes, and you have to reroot it everytime you reboot

I had to install "certificate installer" from google play and install a root certificate.

now im just trying to figure out how to keep it rooted

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Bendito999:
Wanted to post update on this thread for people who come by via Google wanting to root that zte speed, as I was sick of coming by this thread as seeing no answer from the search results.

I did the following and was able to get permanent root with SuperSU

Source/Inspiration for this guide (thank you hroark13): androidforums / zte-speed-n9130-permanent-root-achieved.1061137

With ADB enabled and hooked up, run " adb shell reboot disemmcwp "from your PC. This helps to unlock some key parts for Kingroot to work much quicker and persist. That was the secret sauce that was not known in 2015 when everyone was trying to root this at first.

I used Kingroot 5.3.8 from APK mirror as that was easiest (no need to install the Kingroot application on PC just downloading the APK is enough to the phone). I was also running AnTuTu Benchmark Stress Test at the same time as running Kingroot, but this might not be necessary.

I installed Busy Box, and got the SuperSU downloaded ahead of time from the play store as well. I had tried to run Super SU but it couldn't replace the binary, so:

Finally, replace Kingroot with SuperSU by using the Super-Sume Pro app, pretty much just follow through the prompts in the app, but before you start be sure to disable Auto Updates in Kingroot first to prevent a possible conflict. The app will prompt you to reboot, which you can do.

Should have permanent root on your ZTE speed now, you can skip the last step if you like the Kingroot manager but generally people like Super SU better so I changed it to that (less janky).

Warning, if you screw any of this up there is no way to recover your ZTE speed so therefore you could end up with $20 brick.

Thank you, hope this helps someone out who has one of these in their junk drawer.

[HTC Excalibur] Greg530:
You mean with Pocket Outlook using SMTP? (You must be a yahoo plus subscriber)

I have the same problem and managed to trace it down to the following:

The built in SMTP program does not authenticate itself 100% by the book. Can't tell exactly but I saw in the server log that it did something funny after HELO.

This causes some mail servers (on the receiving end) to ignore the mail entirely or think it's spam.

I only have this issue with my yahoo account though. Others (e.g. gmail) work fine from Outlook.

Hope it gets fixed in WM6...

T-mobile has a work around.

1) Go to T-Mobile and setup a email forwarding account (Set your phone as a MDA NOT A Dash

2) Turn off email forarding for incoming

3) ON Dash - Change outgoing SMTP to: myemail.t-mobile.com

4) Change user name (Use different than login - because you will still login to Yahoo using the pop or IMAP server to your10digitphonenumber:1

5) password is your yahoo password

Also change NO SSL on outgoing, and outgoing requires authentican checked.

This is also required if you use the dash as a modem on your laptop. I could not sent SMTP Trough T-mobile connectiosnt o laptop, but could if connected via a wifi connection that was not t-mobile.
