How do I get better battery life?

I have a k8V that i tend to use on the charger a lot. The battery dies extremely fast even though it's supposed to have 16 hours of usage time. The generic ways like airplane mode, brightness, and clearing the apps do nothing. And battery savers don't either. Please help. I also have no money to get a new battery or a repair.
 
Moved from the Accessories forum to the More LG Phones forum.

How old is the phone? If it's more than a year old, and if you use the phone pretty heavily, the battery might be starting to deteriorate (or the battery might just be defective).

To get an idea of what's causing the drain, it would help to see some stats. Charge up to 100%, then let it drain to 20-30% with normal usage, without charging in between. Then show us:

1. The main Settings>Battery screen.
2. The fullscreen battery graph screen (which shows Awake time and Cell Signal Strength).
3. The Screen category (to see total Screen On time).
4. The Cell Standby category, if present (to see Time Without Signal).

You might have to install a 3rd party battery monitor, like GSam Battery Monitor, to get the Cell Signal Strength graph.
