Hey guys hope you're fine . I want to advice everyone who use note 2 how to get best battery backup please do the below :
1. Don't run any 3rd party app for battery
2. Turn off sync option for all accounts and mails
3. Turn off location settings
4. Turn on power saving mode
5. Set brightness to lowest
6. Don't ever clear ram memory
7.Use dark wallpaper
8.Don't use too much widget
9. Put screen time out to minimum
10. Don't turn on motion all the time
I recharged my phone till 100 % yesterday 5.00 pm
And now my battery is 73 % at 5.42 pm
Battery stand 1 day and 42 min and my screen time on is 1 hour and 49 min :)
