I m using galaxy Note 4 N910C, which i have had for 15 month.
Since the last 2 or 3 months, the battery drain increased a lot, and it goes incredibly fast from 30~20% to 0%. Sometimes it may even shut when at 20...I m thinking this is happening because of OS update to marshmallow and since then no more updates for us.
But right now my phone screen started flickering, my aplications became very laggy and unresponsive, and phone lost mobile signal (wifi still connected). I plugged the charger in and it still kept falling untill 0% and turned off.

This is the problem I m also having. Many have got the same problem. Why it actually happening. Mostly seems to be software issues. After factory reset my battery stays longer but within 2 to 3days again same problem. Because of marshmallow update. <<watch the f-bombs please>> what the <<watch the f-bombs please>> developers doing ? We need one <<watch the f-bombs please>> updatell to fix this issue.
I have even heard that the battery calibration in android 6.0.1 update has some sort of problem and re-calibration would fix the problem for some but not for all since it didn't fixed my problem. Anyone who has some ideas about this severe issue please help. Help will be appreciated. Thank you.

<<Watch the language please, in spite of your frustration. Thank you.>>
 
Solution
I've read a thread on this and have experience with this phone. Here's a list of ideas people recommended.

Turn off fast charging (note 4 & note 5, etc) (this might ruin batteries, it's in the battery section of the settings)
Turn off enhanced 4g LTE services
Turn off talk back (in settings)
Turn off google+
Turn off GPS when not in use
Turn off facebook
Disable all the spam / junk apps you don't use that come preinstalled with the phone
Check the battery section in settings to see the battery drain by app (disable/uninstall offenders, if possible)
If all these fail, buy an Anker battery off Amazon for this phone. Multiple people on the below thread attested this worked (if Toms allows me to post this hyperlink). I have not done this...

I did once buy a supposedly OEM battery, but the problem soon returned. It could be the fast charging or enhanced LTE services were the culprit messing the new battery as I did not know at the time to disable them.
