notice : when i boot the mobile to download mode and leave it also consumes the battery tremendously
Help me

I’m not a android technical guy but it looks like a higher background process issue. Disabling unnecessary system apps is a good idea but disabling manufacturer system apps isn’t a good idea. I’ve doubts those appa you’ve disabled listed below. I should never disable these at all.
Google Play services, Google Play Store, Google Services Framework, Samsung Apps, Samsung Apps Widget, Samsung Link.
The system runs in full process when its looking for something and its not getting the right thing which it needs. Getting the phone hot is an indication for that, like its gets hot when playing large games. The cpu is running with full capacity. Also if the mobile data (3G/HSPDA) running constantly that is a plus point for making it hot and draining battery. Using WIFI most of the time consumes way to less battery.
Also check the RAM and CPU usage if possible, I doubt both will be high. And turn those apps on and keep all updated then do a factory reset, better by hard reset (not from setting menu). I hope this issue will be fixed.

Greenify
Basic things you must notice before starting
Display
Brightness of your phone is a major factor for the draining of tje battery. The more the Display Brightness is the more the battery used. So i suggest you to switch from auto brightness to manual.
Wifi
Even though the wifi is not in use, your phone searches for available wifi networks available.
You can Switch of this feature by going to Wifi>Options(on the top right corner of your phone)>Advanced>Scanning always available(off).
Location
Turn off the Location Service when not in use.You can also set the location to 'Device Only" in settings.
Thses are the basic things for battery saving.
GREENIFY
For using this you need Xposed .
Download:- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3034811
Once you have the donation package of greenify with you ,you need to activate the Greenify Xposed Module in Xposed. Then enable boost mode and experimental Features.

Yeah,it is a good phone. But many useless apps are running which causes battery loss. I only made this post for helping how to stop such applications

Did you just copy this from another thread ? So you gain lots of like just my opinion peace

Nice post but currently I am using the free version of Amplify and quite satisfied with it.

Not at all ... I juast tried so many apps and found these. Amplify and greenify are some common apps. But only thing i contributed here is the ways for using amplify. Other steps are some common ones

Thanks for the effort!
I can't seem to find some of the Amplify items.
I'm guessing that they're app-specific though (ie. the .facebook alarms are only because you have the Facebook app installed)?
And I can't find any of the services in order to disable them, do you know what app they're affiliated with?

Questions about battery draining...

Hello, I have got the Note 4 you see in my sign..
I'm wondering why my Note 4 has this heavy draining mainly by 2 processes (Android System and Android Operating System).
As you can notice in attachment the processes I said drain about the same percentage of Screen On.
What do you think about this issue?

Probably, you should uninstall Clean Master and the like. I think it's the real culprit here

I've been using Clean Master for a long time and I've never had this issue before.
However Clean Master consumes "only" 12% as the item says..

Clean Master helps for the Junk Files. What do you suggest for junk? Clean Master?
Sent from Note 4 device - Rome - Italy

2 ppl already said cleanmaster unnecessary as we already got smart manager. imho, all apps alike clean master / antivirus are unneeded in smartphone.
back to topic, did you just flash / reset your phone? cause this is normal.

Use SD Maid for cleaning. It has other useful features as well.

I'm sorry..I was wrong in my previous post when I asked which app do you suggest me. I meant to say CCleaner but the answer I think should be the same.
To be honest I deactivated the optimisation app for battery in Smart Manager. But now I'll enable this feature.
However I noticed Smart Manager for junk files is powered by Clean Master (you find written that next to unnecessary data in Smart Manager).
I don't remember if I've ever resetted my phone (probably only some wipe Dalvik cache) but I wouldn't like reinstall all things and I should spend a lot of time to recreate folders, shortcut, etc...[emoji27]
You consider that I don't have root access for use of Titanium Backup..
Sent from Note 4 device - Rome - Italy

CCleaner should not affect your phone to this extent. It's not the problem.
I find that Google Framework services are the problem.
Look for both the newest Google Play store AND Google Play Services apk online (apkmirror or androidpit) make sure you get the right ones for your phone - they'll tell you how to check.
Go to App Manager and clear caches for these apps or disable if you can.
Install the new ones.
This may or may not work, it's hit and miss. I had the same problems with my S6 edge +, and this did it for me.
Some people don't like cleaners - I do. I use 360 and Greenify and at times, Deep Sleep Battery Saver.
And I use SdMaid for deep cleaning.
Shutapp and Doze work very well for my LgG4.
Whatever people say, I have increased performance with these apps, and with Greenify I have extended battery during screen off - I've tested it extensively.
The key to improved battery life in all cases is to fine tune your 'white lists' and to be sure that these apps THEMSELVES are not running in the background.
With the apps I've mentioned there's no problem, I've never used CCleaner on my phone.
The Battery optimisation that comes with Samsung is VERY good though. You must make sure you go through ALL the apps and select 'always optimising' except for those few (clock, calendar, Nova AND the external optimization apps you have installed, i.e. CCleaner in this case) which you select 'never optimising.' It makes a big difference.
You'll see that Google Framework Services cannot be optimized.
Sent from my SM-N910H using XDA-Developers mobile app

Google Play Service consums that percentage as it's shown in picture I shared you.
I worried about that two processes of Android System with a very high percentage.
In my phone I have a very large battery by Zerolemon and I don't mind to deactivate some processes like background apps.
I don't know how Samsung Optimisation works and for now I setted Optimisation every three days for all apps.
@kolembo
Why do you suggest me to exclude optimisation of clock, calendar, et. apps?
Sent from Note 4 device - Rome - Italy

I want to thank you all because after the optimisation (Smart Manager) the battery discharges very slowly..and with this large battery is very quite!
But how does it work Smart Manager?
Do we have some other apps in other phones to get the same outcome??

Wi-Fi constantly Running.

As the title states for some reason. Wi-Fi is constantly running.
No idea how or why. Nothing is enabled. Wi-Fi calling is also off.
Thank you in advance!

Better battery stats....... Is that a 3rd party app?
Could be that that battery app is miss reading something and giving you false information based on your other screen shots.

@shwnr11
That could be it. Better Battery Stats is a well known XDA application made by a member here named chamonix.
It is free for us XDA members but it is also a Paid application on the PlayStore.
I'll read up on his thread to see if he can point me into the right direction.
I wanted to come on here first to see if anyone else with a V20 is using this application and having the same problem.
I recently rooted my phone and at first I did not use a Custom Rom like (Overdrive, Etc.) and I ran into the same problem where the stats are showing Wi-Fi constantly running. I thought I may have deleted or frozen something using TitaniumBackup and I just could not figure it out at all and decided to go ahead and try the Overdrive Custom Rom to see if was something I did.
And of course after setting up my phone BetterBatteryStats is showing Wi-Fi is constanly running again...even on a clean install of a Custom Rom. It is not "On" because that is labeled as something else within the stats and it does not seem to be draining battery even though it shows "100%" battery usage. I am still achieving at the end of the day "1.0%" drain every hour.
But I appreciate you commenting and not just "Viewing" like the other 100 or less viewers have.

I still have no idea what would cause this type of battery usage with the Wi-Fi.
I decided to go ahead and do a fresh clean install of OverDrive's Custom Rom. I have not loaded any of my apps from Titanium Backup but Better Battery Stats.
After 2 hours now BBStats does not show this type of battery usage anymore.
So I am even more puzzled now. It may be that I deleted an app or apk or frozen something that requires Wi-Fi to behave properly.
Is there a list of aps or apks that we can safely remove or freeze?

Check in developer options and make sure allow WiFi room scans is turned off, when on it sends your location data to Google even when you turn WiFi off.
wifi
Common sense isn't all that common

@ZDeuce2
That was the first place I thought to look because I remember that being an issue with the Nexus 6 but unfortunately it was already disabled.
But I believe it may have been something I deleted or froze because I went ahead restored all of my apps one by one that I had prior just to see if it was an app of mine and I did not delete or freeze or anything this time around and Wi-Fi is not showing any usage at all with the BBStats app.
Yea I am puzzled but I am a happy camper now. BBStats is showing a solid "0.2%" battery usage every hour! Getting awesome battery life now.
Thank you though good sir for the comment.

2 day old v20, battery lasting < 6 hours

I though! maybe it was the dirty Santa so I went back to a stock kdz last night but battery usage still just as bad.
Does it take some time to settle with this phone or is something wrong?
Here is a screenshot of battery stats. I've only been up a few hours at most.

Most likley you just need a new battery. When a battery goes, its quick. That's the one of the beauties of this phone... Removable battery.

Maybe the battery went bad from sitting unused for 3 years.
It was completely dead when I first opened it which was weird for me also.
The drain did slow down some but it's still only at 40%
My stylo 3 is typically above 85% this time of day.
I will swap the batteries and see how it goes. Thanks for replying.

Could also be a system app getting stuck. I used to get them randomly on stock ROM like once or sometimes twice a week. You could install GSam battery app or accubattery app and see if you can see anything misbehaving. I use BBS (BetterBatteryStats) but it's a paid app I believe.
I would try that before spending money on a battery just to see because a reboot doesn't always fix the issue. In one of my cases my Gmail app got stuck constantly syncing and even after reboot it would just start right back and get stuck again and I have Auto sync turned off

Before going in for new battery, try these,
1. Using LG UP, re-flash latest KDZ using partition download option. Phone gets formatted to new. Make sure battery is at 10%-20% and not above that. This will help re-calibrating of battery, while charging to 100% by system.
2. After installing all apps as per standard setup process, restart the phone.
3. Now the crucial part, disable the following system apps by going in to apps in settings,
-Android Services Library
-Android Shared Library
-App Shortcuts
-Bookmark Provider
-com.facebook.appmanager
-com.facebook.system
-intent filter verification service
-Promo Helper
-Print Service Recommendation service
-market feedback agent
-inapps
After doing above, i could get smooth running of phone and better battery.
Check this , if it works for you,...fine...

holy crap! everything run allot smoother after disabling those services! will there be any down side to it?

How did you come upon this particular list ? other than facebook the thing is disabling others can have side effects that will be difficult to figure out later
So the question is what breaks as a result of disabling these services ?
I have all of the above enabled with the exception of facebook which i do not use and face no problems at all.
