Stop sync then go battery manager and power save everything except your texting app. Auto your brightness with minimal setting. Your bunk no power socket meh?

Airplane mode your phone when you're not using helps as well. :)

Uninstall fb app and use it through your Internet browser instead. That app is a battery sucker. ..

Mine also launch. Still can last a day or 2 if i don't touch it much. I think only way for you to know is u reset and then see if your battery is solid when there's nothing much on it and that standby time can still last you over 1 day.

The other day mine wasn't touch a lot, SOT was about 1hr 15mins with 34hrs standby and 20% left. I have about 250 apps installed with quite a few background running apps, wifi on and location always on.

mine still ok ba, can last 2 days 5 hours with 3 hours SOT

Actually i put FB under permanent power saving mode. Then i disabled later on and test the difference between the 2. Actually, i dun find any difference so now i just keep my FB on. I don't get notifications on it too, so it's an app that only use power when i open the app.

If your gf break up with you for this reason then i think it's better to find out now cos this kind of girl is bound to stray, unless u give her hall pass lol.

went to samsung service centre cos realised my battery was acting up. before restarting, 80% batt. After restarting it can drop to 68%. Yo-yo battery. Same day notified me that I can pick up my repaired phone. I was impressed at the turn around!

told me they replaced the battery & the motherboard, wow! my phone got so jialat meh! all that repair done in same day... i hope they did a solid job cos I really, really like my note 5 and want to keep it a while more.

They smoke u u also dunno, say replace those but maybe recalibrate your battery only lol. But do check the sealing back of the phone cos last time i send my S2 there, it came back the edge never snap back properly, luckily i can do it myself, don't need to go down. Now with the phone supposedly "water resistant" need to check better.
