Hi everyone,
I've had my note for a week now and really like it, (Moved over from an iPhone4s).
BUT since I've had it the battery life has been so bad I can't believe that it's normal.
It barely lasts a day with only light surfing with out having to be charged.
I have the power saving feature turned on, wifi on, GPS off, active sync for all accounts turned off and the battery still drains fast.
An example, I had it fully charged to 100% at 1:30am, disconnected it from the charger, left it alone, the screen auto turned off. By 6:30am 5 hours later it was at 70%. That's crazy, something is going on.
Does anyone know of any monitoring apps that I can use to see what's going on while it's supposed to be in sleep mode.
I also have the golauncher installed, not sure if it's causing issues but the battery life was this bad even before I had installed that.
Also too, when I first got the phone, I didn't charge it for 24hours before first using it. How bad it that? Would that have had an effect on the battery? I know it mattered in the past, having to need to do a full charge first. Is that still needed to do?
