Would there be an improvement if the battery save modes of the galaxy s5 was ported to our lg g3?

An improvement in what? The S5 battery saver feature pretty much cripples the phone, shutting off background data, and slowing things to a crawl. If you're really running out of battery on a regular basis, buying a spare battery is probably a more useful solution.

Hello.
I was wondering if my battery life is low or not, so I want to know what your battery life is guyz.
My battery would last like 12hs with wifi always on and facebook, some music here and then and youtube. is it a normal consumption ?
There are so many variables that come into play with battery life that is nearly impossible to quantify what sort of battery life someone should be getting. Screen on time, brightness settings, radios used, reception, usage patterns, apps running in the background....tons of things that will be different from person to person. Also, the actual battery itself comes into play with how well it can hold a charge.
As long as you are happy with your battery situation, all is well. If not, perhaps look into what is using your battery. Better Battery Stats can potentially help you narrow down where things on the software end are draining your battery.

That's about what I use to get.
I went out and bought a spare battery. I'm not a fan of extended batteries so I went with a standard battery for about $10.
I also flashed a new kernel that will help on the screen brightness and underclocking.

Hello guys! I am a nebie here and i own the gpad.I wanted to ask you about the life of the battery,is it depleted so quickly because of the resolution of the screen or is it a result of poor optimizing on behalf of lg?Will the custom roms and kernels will be able to fix the problem and extend the battery life?Cause if its going to be fixed,it will be one of the best tablets
Thank you in advance
According to the battery usage data that the G pad produces, its pretty much the screen itself that consumes pretty much all of the power.
If that is correct, and I believe it is, there is no fix for it.
The only real thing you can do to extend battery life is turn down the brightness of the screen.
Hi people!
My problem and the background information:
The LG G3 has a fairly good battery life when using the Stock ROM.
It´s good, but its average! And you know why: the massive screen with its massive resolution is bringing the battery life down and LG didnt managed to put a battery saving screen in the G3 (in comparison to e.g. Samsung Galaxy Note4)
But on the other hand LG included their A3 technique, wich should increase battery life, by downclocking and reducing the frame rate when not watching videos or playing games.
BUT if you use a Custom ROM, there is no A3 technique included that increases battery life.
Therefore I think the battery life on Custom ROMs isn't that good?? Or am I wrong with this??
So here's my question:
Did somebody tested the battery life on a custom ROM with the LG G3?
And whats your screen-on time over a day or a certain time?
(Because the framerate should be on 60 Hz therefore it should be a really worse battery life on Custom ROMs.)
Sorry for my bad english and thank you for answering my question

Hi folks,
Love my G3 but I'm getting the itch to upgrade. What's the next device I should look into. Must be rootable and have Dev support here. Size at least as big screen as the G3. Battery life critical... Even with a new battery my G3 has trouble getting through the day.
I usually buy phones about a year after release.... Don't need latest flagship, but prefer tried and true last year's best contender.
Thoughts appreciated!

Lg v20 you can consider.
Pros:
Super audio for listening and recording
Great camera
Big screen
Remove battery
Verygood battery life (iam using it)
Rootable(some variants)
Fast charging.
Speedy Ufs memory and great RAM
Overall amazing phone for next few years.
Glad to hear it has good battery life for you. I've been concerned because places like Phone arena compare the battery life poorly to the G3... Like by a factor of 3.

How is the notification system on it? I rely on my multicolor LED to flash different colors depending on what is waiting for me (diff colors for text vs personal or work mail etc.) ... But the V20 has that second screen instead of LED. Is it supported and customizable? Not too much battery drain?

No notifications led on v20..sadly we can't use secondary display as notification light.
Hey guys,
I am finding myself in a difficult position to make my mind on which phone suits me better.
I had the LG G4 for some time now and I found it really amazing. Always moving fast, reliable with GPS direction plus a nice attractive UI. It's main issue though was the battery draining so fast. For the past months my phone was always drained at the end of the day even with minimal usage. I ordered a brand new battery and replaced the current one just to see I can barely see an improvement.
On the other hand, I've been using my brother's Xperia XA1 Ultra in a trip and I was just amazed by this phone battery. It was performing at least 3 times better in terms of battery life and at the end of the day I still had over 40%+ of juice left. However, I had experienced trouble with Google Maps getting the compass to point the right direction I was facing and the back camera didn't really felt like a improvement for me.
Is there indeed an upgrade (hardware related) moving from LG G4 to Xperia XA1 Ultra? Is there something I can do to prolong my LG G4 battery life?

Latest aoscp or LOS with titan kernel will get the most possible battery life out of the g4. The display panel of the g4 is the main reason for draining so much. Replace it with an amoled one and you will get a week.. Lol.

I have two extended battery packs from power beat and an external battery wall charger so I never use the charging port
Each battery lasts me 27 hours with heavy use
