I noticed that although 1 bar or 2 bar signal but speed test still can achieve high speed 15mbps and above on LTE signal. No drop call or call quality problems either

Perhaps it is just not pleasing to the eye?

Bro what's your standby time?
For me I'm also about 3 hours ++ screen on time, with at least 2.5 days to 3 days standby time

I think over 5 hours screen on time can be achieved if use up the battery within the same day. But not using the phone so frequently at the moment

bro the answer is one of the below:
If it is an app draining the battery, have a look at what apps that consume most power from the list under "settings" - "power saving"
If u see any particular app that keep showing up in the top 3 u found the culprit. Next would be uninstall the app or find a way to deal with it. If through app setting it still drains battery then Greenify could be your solution here

It also could be a telco coverage issue causing battery drain. If your phone signal fluctuates a lot between 2G-3G-LTE, that will reduce battery life as well. Simple way to fix it is to lock to 3G or 2G, and only enable 2G/3G/LTE when wanna use mobile data

But from past experience, most of the time it is an app related problem

Airplane mode u can't make/receive calls as all wireless connection is off
But in ultra power savings the background sync are all turned off but mobile network remain on

Yes bro that's right
I think it is useful as u can choose few frequently used apps to enable background sync while wipe out the rest
I think this is among the best feature Samsung have done for Note 4

Bro I suggest u look into email sync
Last time my old Samsung phone also got this issue and it was due to stock email app wakelock. I was only pushing 2 email accounts at that time. If u dun mind to get your emails slow a bit u can adjust stock email app background sync timing to be set to maybe once in half an hour or an hour. That would cut down the aggressive background sync

If u still prefer push, I managed to fix it by replacing the stock email app with their respective native apps such as Yahoo Mail, Outlook etc. But the downside is u would need few apps to handle emails instead of all in one

Guys I'm having some major wakelock problem after factory reset my phone
After checking power savings it shows the phone is ALWAYS awake!!??
I believe the problem is with google play services as it has a very high stay awake time. The screenshots are below.

Appreciate help to fix without root
Thanks guys

I restarted phone and voila problem solved
phew


Bro I tried this from lazada
http://www.lazada.com.my/galaxy-note-4-pri...ass-872617.html
No halo effect but then it doesn't fully cover the phone. There are quite some gap on all 4 edges of the phone about 1/4 inch. If u don't use any casing it looks even worse. And also the bottom part of it is not as the picture but similar to the other SP with a cut out leaving the home button exposed

Guys, yesterday night during bedtime hours my battery dropped from 100% to 85%
I checked under power savings the major power consumption are cell standby & device idle. And I've off Wifi but the chart shows Wifi was on all the time?

I think Wifi scanning should be the major factor causing battery to drop so much?
And so under advanced Wifi options, I disabled "always allow scanning". Hope it will be better today

Anyone had faced the same problem and fixed by doing the same thing?

Depends on whether u use a casing also
Because tempered screen protector will not cover the whole screen area. There is about 1/4 inch gap on front screen all 4 sides. It is fugly if u don't use any casing. It is also inconvenient when need touch/slide finger to the edges of the screen. So far haven't find any tempered glass screen protector that 100% covers the front screen.

Probably I will be switching to a normal screen protector due to this reason

Thanks bro

Can anyone recommend a screen protector that will cover the whole front screen please
I bought 1 normal anti fingerprint screen protector but still the size is same as tempered glass!! Made me took out and wasted the tempered glass privacy screen protector

So far so good

I think I'm in the same situation as u bro
My SOT is about 3.5 hours, standby slightly over 1 day. Have been this way ever since factory reset
Just yesterday night before sleep 100% charged drop to 85% when I wake up

Haven't root to use greenify yet but maybe soon as wakelock detector won't 100% work without root
I think definitely there are some wakelock causing drain in the background although all apps are closed

Wow can't wait for lollipop

I think so. Previously before factory reset I also get 4 hours+ SOT but suddenly after factory reset it became 3.5 hours only...... Overnight drop 15% yeaterday!!

I've just installed greenify without root. Hope it will help
Will continue to monitor monitor and keeping fingers crossed

It's a known Maxis problem, problem due to fibre cable cut
look at the complains at Maxis FTTH thread.....

It doesn't fully cover the screen and so there is risk of halo effect. Other factors such as installer / phone condition could also be among the reason causing it

Yes agree
But it is sooooo hard to find a screen protector that fully covers the screen
If anyone that managed to get it, please share. Thanks

I've got no problem with non-tempered glass as long as it can cover whole front screen

Very nice SOT
Mine is only about 3.5 hours........

Installed Greenify and yesterday in office everything was smooth and I think no more wakelocks. Battery drain is normal & very minimal. After work I setup TTpod app and things went haywire... I suspect it is 1 of 2 things that caused the wakelocks - TTpod or lockscreen (my interests - which I've set to randomly change lockscreen pic every 1 hour)

I've changed lockscreen back to a still image and now monitoring the situation. Keeping fingers crossed

Seems too much??

I don't have this sort of problem

I haven't experienced any lag using the phone as the main phone for the past 1month plus
I don't play games but my fren installed and tested asphalt and it ran smoothly on the phone
What was the game that caused lag on your phone?
