What does the battery usage page show?

There is always something running in the background. And with it being warm and the battery draining it means something is indeed running.

Do a hard reset. Install only the most needed apps. Install additional apps one at a time every few days.

How long have you had the phone? My battery life has suffered from my not wanting to put it down.

Sad that most of body when to android system and then some of the percentage went to gmail but I don't even have a gmail

There is a gmail app on your phone.

It's probably something using location services. Weather apps can be really bad with that. What apps are you running?

I know there is Gmail up on the phone but I don't use it when I look on battery usage it shows the Gmail took over 20% of battery I close all the apps before I Lock my phone

Is there an "Active App" installed on 7, can't find it if it's on here.
My S5 had it and told what apps running and could turn off.

I was looking and see we have a app moniter and can put apps not using to sleep to save battery.

Did you transfer everything from your old phone to this phone. Or did you start fresh and set it up w/ only your contacts transferred?

My phone was warm when i first set it up cause I was on it alot (new phone excitement) and it starting bringing over my contacts. After that it cooled down and I installed a few apps I knew I wanted on my phone fresh from google. I began getting 16+ hours after the first day because I had to work and am placing my phone down more.

I have the same issue, battery only last 8 to 9 hours with normal use. Nothing on the background except gmail. No Wi-Fi, no Bluetooth, no nfc, no location. It also runs hot all day. I may exchange mine or return in a couple of days.

It could just be how you use your phone. For me I can generally only get 8-10 hours out of a charge while others can get a full day easy. Usage patterns and connectivity are probably the biggest factors. But it's been that way with all of my phones going back to the Note 3, Note 4, G4, Note 5, S7E, and now Note 7. I always have to charge it up during the day and at night. I guess my usage is more than most though.
