Hello folks. I'm experiencing pretty poor battery life on my T Mobile S6 Edge. The man culprit is Android OS. I didn't even make it to 8 hours today.
I have disabled wifi calling and voice over LTE. I've had the phone for 2 weeks so all the syncing should be done.
T mobile twitter support suggested a factory reset, does anyone think that'll help?
Thank you for the help.

Thanks for your help, Do apps from the play store count as android OS? I thought they would have their own listing.

what u mean by "Do apps from the play store count as android OS"??? also try update the Samsung Push Service released yesterday, that's also fix or improved the battery life, I only turn on some stuff whenever I needed like Wifi, GPS, Bluetooth, NFC...etc that also help my battery last longer.

The largest use of my battery is listed as "Android OS" and I don't think any third party apps from the play store would be included in that.

oh, i got it, the Android OS showing in your battery stats could caused by a lot of things, like sync, wifi, etc.....sorry I cant help you there.
I'm having the same issue on a less drastic scale though. Android OS is consuming 8-10% battery which I'm sure can turn into 1-130 hrs of SoT

Same here too. Battery is pretty bad
Update Samsung push services and Google Play services
Sent from my SM-G920T using XDA Free mobile app
I have heard this a few times, how do you update Google services..
also my Samsung push says it was updated on the 15th, I thought there was a newer update? am I wrong?
My biggest drain is the Google play services. I don't even have a lot of apps installed
Do you have the update installed?
I just did the update of Google play services yesterday and the one of Samsung push
a few days ago. Still shows play services at high position, but there is almost no drain in battery for me

yes the update is installed. i have no idea what is making it happen
Anyone figure this out? I'm getting high system and os drain. I use a moto 360 some wondering if that's part of the system drain. I have play services updated and Samsung push service updated.

Android OS isn't sucking up most of my battery for me. However, Google service is for some unknown reason.
Google services is usually down to Google location history & location mode in privacy settings.
Turn location mode to battery saver, and unless you rely on Google Cards for transit information turn off Google Location History
Your google services usage will drop exponentially and you will get better battery life.
This actually applies regardless of android device....
Where is battery saver location mode
Hey everyone. I started this thread with the major issues. I just wanted to let everyone know that I did a factory reset yesterday and I have spectacular results. The battery lasted all day.

Does anyone have any clue why "Android OS" and "Google Services" are taking up so much of my battery? I have only used my phone for periodic texting during the day, I reboot it every morning, and I have location services all disabled in Google Maps.
I did a full wipe and reinstall of Beans 17, I have 72 apps installed, pretty much nothing has changed on my phone but within the last week or two my battery life has been getting worse and worse. Does anyone have any thoughts?

My guess is it could be one of those 72 apps you got. Maybe there was an update for one of them and is now causing battery drain.

Check what apps are running under manage apps/running. Stop any services running in the background that you dont need manually. There's probably something there...
I flash ALOT ...and also yes.

I try to limit myself to the number of apps I have just for this reason, and I reboot my phone every morning so any apps I use aren't always running in the background. I didn't launch any apps other than Google Play Music, stock SMS app, and Foursquare. I really have no idea why the phone isn't going to sleep for half the time it's on battery.

Try a different kernel. I was using saber kernel when I was on beans and I was getting pretty good battery life.
Did you install any wakelock mods? Also use BetterBatteryStats will give you the exact cause

I'm on the Beans kernel, I'll give that a shot. I'll also try disabling Google Now to see if maybe that's what's causing it.

I had an issue with my phone app preventing my phone from entering into deep sleep mode, once I cleared the data, the problem went away. So have you tried clearing the google services data?
UPDATED.....
For those of you who are experiencing your google services draining your battery with all location tracking features turned off on your device, there is a play store update date called 4.1.10 that will replace 4.1.6 that has location bug battery draining issue. In my particular case it is the nlp wakelock service that is constantly running, which falls within the google services.
The download can be obtained from Android Police website http://www.androidpolice.com/2013/05...-store-4-1-10/. You can simply install this apk file through the normal installation process of install apps.
I think its Google music. Ever since the update it has been a problem for me. Make sure when you aren't using it you kill it. For some reason it uses a lot more battery than spotify. I stream music 8 to 10 hours a day so I feel the pain when my battery takes a hit.

So I noticed my data arrows were constantly on last night at about 9pm or so. This was right after I got my 50%warning for the data useage. So I investigate and find nothing running that's isn't usually. Bout 15min later I get the 75% warning so I'm like wtf ? Continue to shut everything down in app manager that I can without shutting down the phone. Now its 45min into it I've restarted the phone 3 times to no avail and I get my 90% warning I call Verizon they say switch to WiFi and turn mobile data off. Which is fine but wasn't gonna work the next day when I left my house n had no WiFi no more. Si looked to see what apps I just installed was eBay mobile I force stoped it still no luck figure that's not it . Then I deleted it anyway figured I can just install it again if I gotta and low and behold it stops. I have no idea how it could pull that off but if anyone is having probably with there new update I'd delete it pronto.
Settings->Mobile data should give you an app by app break down of data usage, you can tell from there what is going on. If there is a large difference between what your phone reports and what Verizon reports, then I suspect their accounting system is messing up; not sure how you get them to cop to it though.
Wow thanx bobcat I didn't know our phones had that capability. That's very useful I think me and many others just learned a new trick. And now looking at that I see eBay was not the culprit but intristingly when I deleted it the data usage stopped.
The settings/ mobile data shows Facebook was the bad app using 4.85gb from just Sept 6-7th. And I called Verizon while this was going on the lady I talked to was really good about it and gave me 10 bucks off my next bill incase I go over the limit and if it goes over 2gb I should call her back shell fix that too. Eh better then nothing.
Ok figured out it was Facebook doing it and killing data. But now while on WiFi with Facebook and eBay still deleted it's going crazy again the arrows for WiFi have been lit solid for most of the time I've had it on ? Is there a way to track apps data usage thru WiFi ?

I believe in the same place you view the mobile data usage if you look in settings it has the option to show wi-fi data usage. On most apps I have background data disabled so no apps are using my data without my knowledge and helps with battery too. If no clear answer there, check better battery stats (if you're rooted) and you can see what apps are active or keeping the phone awake.
I've been experiencing unusual data usage too since I've had this phone compared to the sg3. Going to look into what you guys said but someone on G plus mentioned this today too. Something with the g3 I'm assuming?
Ya holy crap anyone who hasn't yet disable that freakin cloud app it used 3.2gb on the WiFi in that bit that I had it on overnight. The big problem with this is I have nothing on there ,never initiated it and further more wouldn't trust my crap in there hands anyway. But ya I went on a disabling spree with all the apps that I could and put them all to not use data in the background unless on WiFi. Lol wish I could kill that too.
One more question when in these settings after I disabled a bunch of stuff I noticed in the mobile data section there is now a part that says (Removed Apps 3.79gb) ? Is this really being used by apps that aren't in there or is it just a representation of disabled apps ?
What's the cloud app
Just says cloud for the app name but it the cloud storage thing they have so you can store files vids pix n such on Verizon's servers and access it from multiple devices.Same idea as all the Stars just had there pix leaked from lol.

That's just showing what was used by one or several apps that you've since removed. Since that is for tracking your data usage on your billing cycle the "removed apps" may go away once the cycle is reset, just there to show what used X.X amount of data. Haven't really noticed yet if "removed apps" goes away, but I would assume so. :good:
I only have a select few apps that sync and don't use any of that cloud nonsense. Maybe if I still had unlimited data I would use it for a few non-sensitive things but it just kills battery and as you noticed hogs your data.
My phone does this crazy dats thing also. Anyone ever watch 1 youtube video and use over 100 mb?

It's in the firmware already. There's a few apps like this pre installed
But why is it using data? I disabled facebook and have never used it yet this is running and according to data usage has also consumed 59MiB of background data!?

All options to do so are greyed out. It accumulates about 500KiB of storage and network data a day despite the actual app being disabled (and not once ever being launched ) the only thing I can do is clear the storage data.
This really bothers me.

Seems you don't have root. But if you did then you'd have a few options eg uninstall, freeze. I can hear your frustration! Root!

Answer to facebook services on Andriod
I recently upgraded to the Galaxy S6, and wanted to remove any of the bloatware on the device. I disabled the FB app first, since I don't use it on any of my mobile devices. I then came across the com.facebook.appmanager and com.facebook.system applications listed under the application manager on the device. I first stopped and uninstalled the two apps, but I found that they both will update on their own over wi-fi once it's connected. I can't disable the two apps as that option is greyed out. I believe the answer to this is in the permissions of the appmanager stating that it may
1: Download files without notification
2: full network access
3: run at startup
Curiously after I have attempted to kill the app on any occasion that I'm using the device, I received an email from FB stating that they're sorry that I'm having trouble getting into my account. So, in conclusion, the apps must be gathering data (at least all configured email accounts) from the device and sending it to FB. Once FB identifies that an email address on the device matches an email account in their database, it sends the email. Looks like my next step is to root the device.

tried removing it using titanium backup
i tried removing this in my note 4 using titanium backup. sad to say it is making my auto rotate functionality unusable. it took me half day troubleshooting and identifying whats making auto rotate faulty. Why does Samsung loves bloatware? Its making me frustrated as i want to stay on touchwiz but it has so many bloatware. I dont want to go on other roms as majority of them are buggy. Does anybody know any solution with my problem? I dont want any freeze/disable solution pls.....

I've heard about this before in a different thread. It's something to do with a lib that's in the app. Try renaming the apk to bak see if that works, might keep the lib

Just disable it and you are done
Facebook wont self update anymore
And com.facebook.system
Same problem
I tried app called package disabler pro. There i searched for all com.facebook app/processes and disabled them. Now i dont see them any more in my process list in setting. The app costs littlebit but if it doesnt work, you can ask for you money back. It can also disable almost any bloatware.

Hi,
If you're not rooted, just disable it. From my experience, it has something to do with Facebook auto update. I personally doesn't use the Facebook apk itself, I once disable it but it later come back with latest version installed. So you are fine to disable com.facebook.appmanager. However, if you're rooted, better not to uninstall these Facebook related services/apk. Again, from my experience, I might be WRONG, I once uninstall them completely, my air wake up (waking up the phone by hover over your proximity sensor) doesn't work anymore.
Conclusion: you can disable them just fine.
Since day one of owning this phone I've suffered from horrible battery drain. It doesn't matter what version I run (Currently B140), whether I run Greenify, disable mobile data, GPS, Now Cards, wiped cache/dalvik etc, the phone still drains about 20-25% in around 6-7 hours of being idle.
A part of me is thinking it may even be faulty and needs to be RMA'd, but any suggestions on how to fix it would be great!

^Am I correct in thinking the phone is being kept awake here? Any idea how I can find out what it is and disable it?
I used to use Amplify on my Honor 6, but obviously with no Xposed Framework for the H7 it's no good in this case.
I also had a battery drain caused by google play service. I disabled location and gone was the drain. Hopefully next firmware fixes this issue.

OK. Have disabled it now and see how the overnight drain is. Hopefully it sorts it out! :good:
install and run GService Fix from google play. It worked for me
Or let it finish what it's doing. Google play services was indexing all of my photos for Google photos upload and drained my battery for 4 days. When it finished the drain ended. Battery life on the 7 is very good.
I've had the same issue for the past week with the nlpwakelock caused by Goole play services. I have mentioned this in the other battery thread, it is related to the location service for Google services. You are correct in saying it stops the phone from deep sleeping, only fix I have found at the moment is to disable location services and set to device only. Setting it to battery saving does the opposite and keeps the phone awake. Have to see if any fix becomes available or methods to stop the drain without sacrificing certain functions.

Did you try Gservicefix from the play store that krisu recommended? That sorted the Google Play drain out for me.
So now it's just HwCustPowerManagerGCM that's the issue. I wish we had Xposed so I could limit it in Amplify... as of now I can't find any other way to stop it :/ How Huawei haven't fixed this yet is beyond me!

I was going to try that gservice fix from the play store but it seems to of gone or settled down now. However I'm in the same boat as you now HwCustPowerManagerGCM seems to be keeping.the phone awake when it's asleep..
option 1 and 2 solved the same problem
http://www.tusoporteonline.es/blog/...onsumo-de-bateria-de-servicios-de-google-play
Any solution for Android System wakelocks?. It keeps my phone wake for hours. I think is the same problem as you has, the process HwCustPowerManagerGCM
GService Fix does not solve this drain-issue on long term. After two days Google Play Services was back on top of the list!
Only thing that helps is deleting cache and reboot and/or (indeed) disable location.
I have had this phone phone close to when it came out and my battery life has not been all that greati usually get clost to 2 1/2 to sometimes 3 hours SOT :-/. i keep seeing the main drains on the top from screen,android,android system,cell standby,google play services. when i was looking at Google play services i explored more and went into the google now settings accounts and privacy and turned off things i didnt need. also turned of card notifications and now google play services seem to be using less battery. has anyone else done this to save battery consumption? so far i have gotten 2 hours SOT and battery level is at 66% with screen brightness set to auto. I also reset my phone once after reading some battery fixes.
Hi, here my experience.
I really love this phone, but I am really frustrated by battery life. I never get more than 2.5 hours of SoT.
I like a smartphone being "smart" so I usually have everything up (I mean sync, localization, etc. Usually I turn off Bluetooth, nfc and GPS because I don't need them), but with this phone I have to turn off Google history location and uninstall Facebook app and Facebook messenger app. Even with these modifications I have poor battery life and the problem is in "Google play services" and "Google app", they maintain active my phone even in airplane mode!
The screenshot are referring to a situation (I still have 72%) with 10hours on battery, but with ~8 hours of airplane mode. These apps "keep active" the phone for ~4.5hours!
P.s.I am sorry if I don't wait until 0% to get more accurate screenshots, but I don't have too much time during the day and I am really frustrated about the situation

It could be account sync? Have you tried looking under the accounts to see if there is some sync getting stuck?
In my case, I think the main sucker is location. I use to have it turned off (and also Google Now), and only enable when needed. With this, I use to get 4-5 hours SoT. Location/GPS is a huge sucker.
i figured out that in my google now settings /account privacy/google activity controls every was turned on and i just turned them off and it fixed my problem

What exactly you turn of in google activity's. Thank you in advanced
i turned off web & app activity,device information, voice and audio activity,youtube searchhistory, youtube watch history , google location history which are all of them. i do not need google to keep track of everything for me. google cards already does a good job introducing me to articles i can read. i did not play much with these to see which was keeping the phone awake.
the post above helped out a little bit but I tried something new and it seemed to have help out my stand by time and overall usage. when you go to settings battery&power saving then usage click on google play services and at the bottom it shows included packages it shows a list remember those.
go into app settings>all>google play services+google contacts sync+google account manager+google services framework+google backup transport> turned off notifications

How about functionality when turning off 'Notifications' for those services? Do you still have contacts sync working? Have you tried to create a contact in your phone and check on a computer at contacts.google.com if the new one is there after 1 or 2 minutes? And the other way, creating one on the computer gets synched to phone?
Thanks.
when i restored my phone back to stock I did everything normally to have a fully working phone. after that i went down the list in the settings to customize it to my usage. when i got down to apps and turned off notifications i still had contacts saved on my phone it was like nothing different happened other then getting doze like battery saving on my phone running stock lg lolipop

Good find. I too was getting 2.5 or less SOT. I went back to unrooted stock and was able to get 4 hours 20 min with no tweaking at all. Im back to stock root and am able to maintain 3 hours SOT but this gives me inspiration! Thanks for the tip, I'm trying this and see if my mileage increases.
