alofthailand Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 My Samsung Note 4 burns out the battery in about 4 hours of use when filming and taking pics. Does anyone know how to improve battery life? Turn of Wifi and Data? Use Flight Mode? Disable certain Apps? Which ones? Uninstall certain apps? Which ones? I have bought a spare battery but do not know hwere to get a battery charger! I do use a power pack as well but would like a battery charger. I am also looking for a 'bumper' style cover made by a company called 'spigen' Any advice would be appreciated. I am based mainly in Pattaya but know Bangkok.

Chicog Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Check in the battery menu and make sure you haven't got some dumb app chewing through your battery. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sensei Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Update Android.I've had problems with the older versions of android on my Note 4.I am in 5.1.1 and the battery and overheating problems have gone away.Try using Google Launcher, it is easier on the battery based on my my experience.Turn the brightness of the screen a little lower as it accounts for the most battery drain too. If everything else fails, a power bank always saves the day.Battery cases are good but it feels like you having a brick in your pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
