note 5 battery life

[lorddjj]

My note 5 is really taking a battery life turn for the worse. stock android 7.00.

 

any suggestions? cant update without rooting because using a Verizon phone on att network (u.s)

 

was thinking to get a more battery efficient kernel but I am unsure how to proceed. I would like to keep stock Samsung os. but if I get more battery life from another that's fine by me as long as those flashy note features are there (s pen, samsung health biometrics,etc..). 

 

any none flashing suggestions are welcome as well. thanks in advanced

Factory reset, remove all apps you dont use. End every single app process you are not actively using. Turn off Blue tooth and Location and other battery draining things like it. 

 

Otherwise your battery is already aging, it happens in these devices which is why i like my note 4, but im getting the note 9 because my note 4 is crashing in certain apps now and reseting it didnt fix it ;(

He is correct, you have to keep in mind... with wear in devices comes a decaying battery, and thats with all things in general but like I said its a fact. That phone is kinda old ( still really good ) but the actual battery itself is most likely decaying assuming you got this phone a couple years ago. Usually even after a couple years the battery life 

won't go down significantly but it will and expesically if you have bluetooth and location turned on 24/7

Have you considered replacing the battery?  I just installed one in my daughter's Note 5 and it wasn't too hard.
