S6 edge battery drain on idle (android os battery drain) - Galaxy S6 Edge Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

i recently purchased an s6 edge and updated it to 5.1.1 as soon as i got it.however i went to sleep on 100 percent and woke up to about 20 percent which is a massive drain in battery..the battery stats show ADROID OS on top of the list which is keeping the CUP active all the times and not letting the phone go in to sleep..i tried a factory reset but it did not fix the issue. i disabled most of the bloatware that did not fix the issue either..then i noticed that when i remove the sim card from my phone my phone goes in to deep sleep and battery life comes back to normal however when i plug in the sim card the phone can not go in to deep sleep again..any possible solutions?

I figured it out..the issue was with with my sim card for some reason..the phone would be fine on idle without my sim card but with the sim card it drained battery..i tried another sim card on it and the issue got fixed right away.

I have an s6 edge tmobile being used in a different country and it drains 90% battery over night i have disabled all the bloatware and battery consuming apps . I have tried keeping my phone on airplane mode and greenify with root ive tried the locatuon method on youtube yet drain is the same . Only if i power off the phone at night its battery remains same . Also i have tried ultra power saving mode but nothing works . Battery stats show device idle and display on top but all the remaining app dont show any abnormal battery usage . And the phone works normal if i use it continuosly even then i get 3-4 hours with heavey usage . The only problem is when the phone is at idle it starts consuming abnormal amounts of battery . Any solution ?

[Q] Battery Blinking

I've had my SGS2 for quite some time and never really had issues until recently I suddenly started seeing 'drive mode' appearing on the top left corner of the screen - the phone behaved erratically in that whatever I was trying to do, drive mode and vlingo would keep popping up. At the same time this started to cause the battery life to drain rapidly - on a full charge and in flight mode the battery lasts about 7-8 hours, before this I'd get more than a day easily on sensible use - there's also the issue of the back of the phone feeling abnormally warm (which i think is causing the battery life to drain). The phone also doesn't get picked up as a storage device on pc, if i charge it i get various issues like voltage being too high or the battery icon showing a warning triangle and sometimes the battery icon is flashing. I've also tried a factory reset - to no avail. Has this happened to anyone? if so what did you do to get it fixed? Some times when i swithoff my phone, the phone will automaticaly restart. Even in swith off mode also the battery charging symbol is coming. And i had put my screen light to 15 seconds after inactivity.. Bt it is not getting off.If I check the battery details it is showing 79 or 80% for screen... Can anyone tell me the reason?????? How can I solve this problem?????

[Q] extrem battery draining

Hi! I have a Galaxy S6 edge for a few weeks and I am disappointed in the battery life. It drained from 100% to 65% in the ultra power saving mode with turned off screen and disabled any network conntections within 5 hours! I really dont know what to do... I use Clean Master and Greenify and deactivated most of the services running in background and I didnt get any solutions. Please help!
the battery drainage could be due to the fact you use CM and greenify…
if I'm on 100% and I turn on ultra mode i get over a days use.. what do you have running in the background?
Hi, I had the same problem.
What made it better for me: I cleaned the cache and used phone till 0% till it shut downed and then let it charged overnight.
Today is first day and at the moment i have had 2% battery drain per hours on idle, 4G turned on.

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I am just using WhatsApp Facebook etc... there are not special apps that could extremely drain my battery running in background. I factory reseted my phone and will activate the ultra power saving mode this night to and I will see. Thanks for replies.

Oppo Realme 1 Battery and Sim card Issue?

Hello Friends i have 6Gb ram and 128 gb rom variant oppo real me 1 phone which purched in just 7 day ago.
I have a only one sim . so when i put sim in oppo realme 1 tray and start the phone. sim network is coming in and out problem . but when i remove thi sim to another phone there is no sim issue every time i connected with network. but in real me 1 strange behavior to sim detect on and after some detect off.
and i tried with both sim 1 and sim2 swapping. but couldn't find the problem.
And also i have to notice that my phone battery is draining fast because fully charged at 10 AM and light use of the phone battery go to 1 to 10% in just 5 hour. i also use power saving mode on but there is no effect on this?
If any one have solution then reply or i have to return my phone? give me advise.
Hey mate, have you tried setting network type to 2G to see if signal strength is stable? you can also try any other SIM if you have preferably of different service provider.
With respect to battery, I had issue of fast discharging i.e. around 25% overnight even when phone is idle. Issue actually started one night when I forgot to unplug the phone from charger and went off to sleep. Then I decided to do factory reset and now everything back to normal. With mix of medium to heavy usage, I get 1 full day of battery backup. you can also try to factory reset if not already.
My battery efficiency is very low
It has almost lost 10% in just 30 Min for light usage so I please request for an update for battery performance
OK Finally Testing More 3 Day.
My battery is Down within 5 Hour and sim network is coming and going
And answer is as per my use i requirement more then 12 to 13 hour. and i have diagnosed the problem is in my sim card. My sim card chip is crashed that's way i got network is coming and going. so i think battery is use in this manner to searching sim and battery is drains more. and also sim 2 is not inserted but in setting sim is on that why my battery is discharge fast.
But when i inserted new sim in both slot guess what my problem is gone and i have use my phone more then 24 hour and battery still remaining 20%
So is that not problem in battery.
So Phone is completely working.

Inconsistent battery readings but no drain

Greetings. The past month I've been getting wrong battery readings from my redmi 5(rosy, miui global 11.0.2 stable, android 8.1.0). It no longer charges to 100%, regardless if it's turned on or off, unless I unplug and replug the charger in which case it jumps immediately to 100%. There are massive percentage drops when idling( 20% drop in less than an hour), and the battery will drop all the way to 2% within 24hours. The battery life itself is no issue. I get consistently about 6-7 hours of screentime, and about 2 hours of that screentime the battery is stuck at 2%. I use the voltage readings from gsam monitor to know when the phone needs to charge, (3300mah battery, 4.3 max charge,3.45V minimum).
Attempting to repair the problem I've tried the following:
1) Allowed the phone to completely drain and shut down, left it to charge. No good. Stopped at 88%. I've attempted this multiple times to no effect.
2)Took the battery off the board and replugged it.
3) Bought a new battery altogether. Even replaced the usb board and the flex cable just to be sure.
4)Swapped the charger with one from a Redmi Note 5.
5) Rooted the phone, installed gsam battery monitor. Although I discovered various issues,the battery consumption is still negligible. Assuming I can trust the readings, 70% of battery life goes to the screen. 0ne thing worth noting however is the Android system process is constantly using the significant motion detector. I traced it back it the Google play services, but it doesn't allow me ,even with root access to turn off its use of sensors.
6) Deleted the batterystats.bin file from the system folder.
7) Enabled the battery saving feature and disabled synchronization.
8) Reset smartphone to factory settings.
9) Wiped data and cache from recovery.
10)Flashed a Pixel Experience custom rom.
11)Installed accubattery. It calculated a smaller battery capacity. However all the metrics and statistics were thrown out of whack as soon as the battery started freefalling from 40% to 2%(in idle).
12)Charged the phone from recovery mode(Orangefox). Still stuck at 87-88%.
The battery doesn't drain when the phone is turned off, but it still won't charge to 100% unless I replug the charger.
Also I forgot to mention but the phone is strictly used in airplane mode as secondary device so you can rule out cell standby drain from poor signal reception.
I'm thinking of flashing back the original rom but what are the odds of this being a rom related issue?
I'm currently testing it's full idle drain time. I won't use the device for at least 24 hours or wait until it's discharged completely.
Has anyone else encountered a similar issue? Thank you for your time.
