from note 3 snapsragon to note 4 exynos ... ?!!!!!!!!!! - Galaxy Note 4 General

Hi everybody ,
as the topic shows , i came from note 3 ( sandragon ) ...
till now , there is not any major different , plus , the exynos eating the battery drain !!!!! in compare of note 3 with Lean kernel !.
i also tried to use custom kernel ( ultimate kernel ) on note 4 , but the battery usage is very very more that note 3 + i tried to flash the new update , but the problem still persist .
1- why the battery drian on note 4 is tooooooooo much ? and is there any fix ? cause i couldn't found any or should crossing finger for the L version from samsung ??? what do you think ?
furthermore , i think the GPU is weaker that note 3 !!!! it always laggy when trying to render a 3D graphic ! i never had such a lags on 3D benchmarks !
2- is the exynos GPS problem or can be solve on next update from samsung ?
its appreciated to answer my questions

Hi. I have a note4 exynos. Stock. Using gear neo 2 and high usage.
I have a full day battery life and usually with 20% remaining aprox.

I have good battery life something is wrong with your phone

oh my God !!!
4 days !!!
which kernel do you use ??
man , i should charge my phone every day , it eating my battery even i'm sleep ( 5% from 12AM to 9 AM )
but i charged my note 3 with lean kernel every 2 days .
my wifi is always on ( except when i'm sleep) , but i don't know what is the problem . i also using griniffy

I had also SD Note 3 and I find Note 4 Exynos faster and more efficient than SD. I get 5:30 screen on time average where as in Note 3 I was more like 5 hours. The 7% more battery than Note 3 that Samsung reported back in the Note 4 announcemet holds true based on my usual pattern usage. So try to investigate it more before blaming Exynos chipset.

I have like 2-3 hours SOT. Bluetooth always on. WiFi on. Only off when on data. So is 50/50.
I'm not much happy with it. With Sony Z2 I had same usage pattern but twice the SOT. Any advices?

I would be very upset if I was getting 2-3 hours of sot, I had 4 hours sot with 50% battery remaining on my last charge with my snapdragon note 4. I didn't realize you guys with the exynos were getting such terrible battery life!

I used note 3 snapdragon i was getting 5-6 sot with it. On note 4 exynos im getting 6-7 hours generally. Definetly better.

i'm wondering why the battery usage is not stopping even when the screen is off !!!
i wish lean kernel would be made for note 3 exynos ....

Seems like you never used a GT-N7000 before. 5 or 6 hours of life STANDBY, and 2 hours screentime.
My device is nice, almost 2 full days of battery days with normal usage. 24 hours of heavy usage. I don't need more. I go to sleep and I charge the phone, then I wake up and it's charged for a new day. No battery drain issues.

No issues with exynos for me its fantastic!!

i fount a setting on my wifi , i will keep searching , always !!
can it be a reason ?

You should have exchanged it when you had the opportunity... Try making a factory reset and installing a stock ROM.

Install system tuner, go to taskmanager, enable all categories to show all running processes, sort for cpu %, and you'll find gsiff_daemon on top, with a very high cpu usage, i think. That could explain bad gps, too. Kill it. And use a root explorer to delete it from /system/bin. Done. Your battery should be fine now.
I've a 910c exynos and battery is fine! With ultimate kernel.

I had a note 3 snapdragon , and The batt life seems to be more or less the same than my note 4 exynos, so, given the higher resolution, and more powerful cpu, I would say the exynos note 4 is more batt efficient, I have always thought that the batt life is a very complex mix of factors, wifi, data, email usage, signal strenghts, geographical areas, freq syncs, widgets, background services, bloatware, carrier junk, etc. and thats why we hear about very different performances, with same devices

thank u
but my process is :
android system 0.78%
system ui 0.22%

Looks like Exynos battery life is worse than SD. I was considering to get Exynos but decided to buy SD due to better camera performance. Now I'm even more happy I did not choose Exynos.

[Q][PORT][REQ] To Expert DEVS, Please..

first, i am sorry for requesting the expert devs or anyone else, to port this Kernel.. as this is a very battery friendly kernel in my galaxy ace.
this kernel is actually done for the Nexus S, but i see no more development in Nexus S section.. or the expert devs can please make a kernel that focused in battery life ? thanks before..

Have you tried the current custom kernels?
I am using SpeedMod 3-9 and it has an excellent battery life - on heavy usage (internet, emails, ebook reading, messaging and phone calls) I reach the end of the day with at least 30% left - and I am talking about heavy use - around 4-5 hours.
For me this is more than enough.
But I am using "ondemand" CPU governor. If I change to "powersave" the battery consumption will be even lower, I think.
My suggestion to you - give it a try - our beloved Note is one of the best in battery tests - and with these tricks it is even better!

You even can reduce power by using a single collar wallpaper.
For black take a picture in bl&white in the lowest resolution with the lens covered with your finger.
You can select this picture as background.
If you like an other single collar you can do it with a paper of your choice

really ? i'm using that for one day, with heavy use of emails, texts, and watching CCTV in my office with 3G always + wifi = end up 10% in 6 P.M from 7 A.M. and one more thing, i love live wallpapers, so i use Koi wallpaper, and auto brightness.. i thought that with 2500 MAh battery it would last more than 1 days of heavy use... you know, i seldom use that in my house, but very heavy user in the office, no games.
bump, how about this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1257497 ? more kernels = more choices for users
there is already a ton of custom kernels for the note, Surely you havent tested them all ?
99% of battery drain is down to the user ! anyone will confirm this, You should look a bit deeper into your configuration.
start from a full wipe, test several kernels and try all of the Governors & Schedulers, Use something like 'better battery stats' for precise information of which apps use most power, fiddle with settings like auto-sync, wifi off when sleeping, data network deactivated when not in use ect ect.
1 day battery life is about the average for the average user, This is a powerful device with a massive screen and 2 CPU's, you cant expect the stock battery to last forever, Maybe consider an extended battery ?

Tons ? You gotta be kidding me.. i tested goku, speedmod, notecore. I believe speedmod is just a bit better, but not yet satisfied me. full wipe in ics roms is a troublesome work . Now i use lulzactive governor, sio scheduler, underclock to 800 MHz but still :/ . Extended battery ? Seems a good idea...

For the usage you described, it seems that no modern smarphone would handle it - maybe the Moto Maxx, with its huge battery - but it is not in the league of the Galaxy Note.
But, instead of going to an extended battery solution, which would make your Note heavy and thick, you could go for a "spare battery" solution. And you can find plenty of good quality batteries+charger for less than $20 on Ebay - this should solve your problems entirelly.

well yes im searching for extended battery with a capacity of 4000 MAh or bigger. and also, i'm using all of the battery tweaks available for android devices. but still havent sastisfied me
For an extended battery the general opinion seems to be that Mugen 5400mAh rules.

Well you have said it all and given your own answer in your post - you are a heavy user and there are no scripts on xda that will give you additional battery unless you bring 2 or 3 stock batteries with you.
Extended battery is a bit too big in my opinion and will make the Note really too bulky, but if you don't mind the size this is definitely the way to go to have more juice by the end of the day.

[Q] Battery life

Hello everyone,
I wonder how much battery life you have on i9000 with stock battery (1500mHa) on cm 10.1 with semaphore kernel?
Asking, just because I can only get max. 12h of battery life with cm 10.1 20130218 rom and semaphore 2.9.10, smartassv2 and row. Wondering is this normal or my battery needs to be changed. Any suggestions to max battery life on i9000 would be appreciated too
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda app-developers app
The battery can last between 3hours and a week, depending on how you use your phone, so that's not a good question to ask.
If you feel that the battery is running out too quickly then download betterbatterystats and look for any apps using unusually high partial wakelocks or alarms and get rid of them. It only takes 1 rogue app to screw up your battery life.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using Tapatalk 2
I think he knows that.
12 hours uptime is not uncommon, especially when on 3g a lot. On wifi you should be able to get at least 20 h in my experience. If the battery is as old as your phone I suppose its capacity is not what it used to be, and you might consider replacing it with a sgs+ one f.i. - they come cheap nowaways!

That's in your experience, the way you use your phone.
Try playing NFS MW or something. You'll get about 2 hours on a gti9000. It varies far too much to try and tell people how many hours battery life they should be getting. Totally depends.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD
I use my phone for 3h wifi browsing, 30 min. music and 30 min gaming, but nothing intense. And with this usage I get 12h battery life. Flashed 2.3.5 stock rom. Still getting 18h max. So I think this comes to conclusion that my battery is old enough. That's why I asked for the battery life you get, because I didnt knew this is usual or not
My last for 2 days more or less depending on usage.
AW: [Q] Battery life
Guys i think its wrong to measure the battery life with how long your phone is working. i personally look at the screen on time it says more than just how long our device is working. I get always stats around 3h its unimportant if my Phone works 6h or 18h.

Are you happy with your 4X?

Yo guys.I want to ask you how's the device .Tell me the pros and cons.
I am planning to change my HOX and start developing for 4X.
Thanks!
Yo oblikas,
I'm Really Freakin happy with my device a pro is the Quad core ofcourse Cons are many tweaks needed as for gaming.
So, please Develop some more for our LG P880 !

Very Happy Now we have unlocked BL
I came from HOX as well
There isn't a lot of difference really, screen is a bit better on LG and I like the design more. Feels like a premium quality phone to hold.
We Need More Devs though!!!
Gaming will be just like HOX, depends on the kernel and also optimisation of the game ie crappy Gameloft coding
In general, yes but I would like to see much better battery life - especially sleep. My GTab 7.7 can idle for up to 20 days but this phone can only idle for 2 days. Sure, different battery size and all that but it still should hit 4-5 days of pure idle.
I'd also like to see less heat and another thing that can't be helped is that the screen (when tapping stuff) doesn't feel as solid. I feels a bit hollow when you touch the screen when typing but it is accurate and quick so it's not a bug deal.

not so happy
Hi, 3 days ago I bought my Optimus 4x and I'm kinda sad for a few questions.
I'm using the latest version of the Rom (original jelly bean) and I saw that the unit gets hot and the battery is not have a good performance. I tested the battery with Antutu battery tester and came to drop 1% every minute.
I really want to find a solution to my problem. I'm thinking of selling my phone and buy a Galaxy S3.
Sorry for my bad english.

LG 4x HD its Amazing
Hi all, i'm happy with this phone, i had a SIII but verizon version... no luck with GSM Networks (3g) in Mexico... now i have 4ox with bootloader unlock and CM 10.1 4.2.2 then its amazing... very fast.. still needs development but i think that's come alone in a few months.... gaming no bad and 3g its great...
for me not really , because of battery drain 1% 1 hour in idle, \
i have try to delete all unused app and disable fastdormancy and disable auto configure mms setting event
what i see is the stock developer is bad
talking about stock rom ..
as far as i changing many region rom, the best is open Europe the gsm and data signal are more stable then asia rom
but all stock rom are drain battery 1% in 1 hour in idle mode,
anyone have same problem ?

..I had my 4x run 11 days on mostly idle to get to the yellow line once. That's with contact to the mobile network. When the battery on the 4x is less than half the size of that in the tab7. 5100mAh vs. 2100mAh or so.
But yeah, you're right. LG just hasn't optimized the device all that well. And on a stock setup, with the standard apps (that will keep preventing the phone from dropping to idle speeds), you'll be lucky to get over 2 days on standby.
Pros:
- Very clear, sharp and big 720p IPS screen
- Battery (at least for me)
- Shape (it fits in hand really nice)
- SD card slot (up to 64gb) unlike HOX for example
- 1 GB ram
- Tegra 3 quad processor (plays 1080p HD videos without problems, great for multitasking, nice performance also in games with some tweaks etc.)
- Solid 8MP camera and 1080p recording
- Unlockable Bootloader + CM support and also other devs are starting to work on our phone now :victory:
- Nice price/performance ratio IMHO (I bought mine for 250€ which I think is kind of cheap for a phone with such specs)
- Removable battery
Cons:
- Heating (Tegra 3 is based on 40 nm technology)
- Needs some tweaking for gaming (mostly for more high end games)
- A bit long charging time
So with 1 word, YES I am a happy and proud owner of this phone.

[OP5] Battery life Thread

Let's make this the official battery life thread for the Oneplus 5, enjoy :good:
OnePlus 5 Battery Life Thread
Hi all,
I figure it would be useful to get a battery life thread going so we can see what type of performance we can get and also understand how people might be improving their battery performance.
I haven't done one full battery drain yet as I only got the phone yesterday. I will be doing that on this cycle to see how it performs. For reference I am at 90% after about 7 ½ hours having put down at 100% and not on the charger when I slept. I had 2% battery drain over night (slept maybe 6 ½ hours) and have 54 minutes SOT (light usage, just messaging, Twitter, slack, chrome etc) with the remaining 8%. I'm not sure how OP phones battery life reduce, I know LG always has a strong first 10% and then rapidly drops off for example.
In terms of setup, I am rooted and using Doze Settings Editor (GeraldRudi preset), Naptime, Leandroid (but I need to figure out if this is actually working). I am also using dark themes were possible as these are better for AMOLED screens. I've also tweaked kernel in EXKM but nothing major that would positively impact battery.
Just to follow up, I have completed my first full cycle and can report that I got just over 6 hours of SOT over about 33 hours.
I had a bit of Bluetooth and GPS but I do keep the screen brightness as low as possible which really does help battery life as well.
I have also included CPU frequencies for reference, I haven't made any governor tweaks but that would be something to look at or maybe wait for custom kernels which I'm sure would have different governors including EAS based ones.

Yeah I definitely think so. There has been a trend in recent years of reducing battery life IMO. I had easily 8 hours of SOT over two full days on my HTC One M8 when I first got it and each year it's just gotten worse to the point now where 6 hours is considered great but I'm not complaining, I will take that over other phones barely managing 4 to 5 hours SOT.
Very excited to see how far this phone can be optimised on battery life with custom ROMs and Kernels. Good days ahead
Make sure to post your results when you complete a full charge and what you've done battery savingwise to achieve that

The battery life in mine is awesome. 21 hours, on 4g/WiFi and 4:30 hours SOT on half battery.
Probably will last me more than 2 days with normal usage
I can get around 8 hours SOT with medium use and brightness set to low. I am mostly indoors and I am impressed. With the same usage on my OPO I got 3.5 hours SOT.
ElementalX and 4.5.2 is out and coming out very shortly so the game will change again battery life wise. There will be different kernels that will help or hinder battery life depending on how much they are geared that way or towards performance.

I am however now on freedomOS and ElementalX so things are changing up and I can see there is another OTA fix on the way.bit hard in the early weeks to get through a full day without something changing!!

Pg, pls also post also when you're using data (if you're using)

Sot (for who has bad one)

Hi guys
I'm not discovering the fire but I want to make a little contribution for those who has bad sot (I was really annoying for me because I can understand the upsets users ones), this was my discoveries:
The first one and most important:
It seems that the phone is programmed for a certain time of use, I mean it has a maximum time for sot: 6 - 9 hrs so you have to use that time to spend it on screen time because the phone also uses the battery for other stuffs. So if you pretend to get 6 hours or more in more than 1 day you will become mad and taking the phone and throwing it throw the window.
The second one:
Continuing with the last point doesn't matter if you try to save battery reducing resolution or stuffs like that. I use every day performance mode at max resolution and sound quality. The important thing is manage very well the brightness so disable the 10%extra from performance mode. Actually I could reach 6 hours at 1% with a intensive use with wify, data, gps and stuff like that.
The third one:
It is unuseful try to disable things and apps from the phone, they are not important on battery usage except for brightness and (at least for me) AOD. This one drains my battery and I really don't know what to do with this so it is disabled for me.
And the fourth and last one:
It seems that the battery needs a intensive usage in order to get it max potential. Some days ago I use the phone heavily charging it with the dex dock and using the interface and I noticed before that the battery expand it life.
Well, I'm testing if a dark theme is useful or not in order to get better sot but mean while I'm pretty happy with the battery life (40 days of usage); at beginning was very upset with this.
Hope to be useful for anyone.
Cheers and my best regards and thankfulness for the help of the community.
Thanks man

I advised her, but she doesn't care about getting more sot. That's all she uses the phone for I think, Facebook and Candy crush. Both of which are rubbish.
