Today i noticed a crazy drain my my battery than previously recorded.
Here's a TL;DR except from a battery meter report.

2011 Dec 20 12:33:51 1324420431 30
Based on this, the 2.5 hours from 7.30 till 10.00 the batter lost 11% charge from 10.00 till 12.30 also about 2.5 hours, the battery lost 31% charge. Just wondering if anyone else experienced this today (or recently) and has any advice on what i can check for.
The only app i know of that updated today was Google+. Has anyone experienced today's update being more of a battery hog? If so, is there a way to downgrade?
Thanks

Thanks for the reply. Darn. I was hoping on something easy to blame... especially since i knew i updated that app today. but yeah.. 30% in 2.5 hours is pretty unacceptable... especially when i've gone 24+ hours on a charge before.

Someone else suggested that the Facebook App might have activated the GPS and left it running. I'll have to play with that and see i guess. Make sure the GPS is off and test the battery.
I wish i could go 24 hours on a charge, current battery, 4h 49m - dislay 50% 1h 11m and phones been charged a few times probably 45 mins charge. Now at 16% that's usual too... idk if its a straight talk thing or what but its ridiculous, first android phone and i miss my iphone 4's battery life.
I have been running the latest Unnamed, and it was running perfectly until I actually installed and ran a BLN app (though I was also running Llama, a location-based profile modifier.) Started from scratch with a fresh Unnamed, and battery life is back to normal...10h batery, 58% remaining, display 41%, Android OS 30%. It was either BLN or Llama causing Android OS to take the majority of my battery...I assume a wakelock issue but I did not do any further investigation.

I've also been experiencing horrible batter life lately (bought it 3 weeks ago). I'm at 18% after not even 10 hours. 20 minutes of calls, 15-20 texts or so, 3 email accounts. Bluetooth on for a couple hours during my commute.
I'm stock and unrooted (until I decide for sure I'm keeping the phone).
I uninstalled Facebook, NoLED, Skype, turned of Hotmail calendar sync and GPS as per the battery life post.
I have Google on autocync for gMail and Calendar
66% in Deep Sleep.
I do run Executive Assistant (<2%), but it's way too useful for me not to use it.
I was getting ~20 hours last week. If anything, I've ostensibly made changes for better battery life. I have no idea what's going on.

I read that thread or at least part of it when i first got my phone .)
Main reason i asked separately was because the battery drain just suddenly got x3 worse than what i'm more used to. I kind of panicked. Will try and do soem further testing as time allows.

This started happening a few days before the update.
If you haven't already, download better battery stats to see if there are any offending apps or wakelocks that are causing the excessive drain.

Yep, did that (awesome app, BTW). The one that took up the most time was the bluetooth PBAP, but it was 2 hours which is my roundtrip commute to work. Nothing else seemed to take up a significant amount of time other than the sver stuff. Although I guess those small things add up. I think NoLED was a huge culprit. People seem to love it, but perhaps I set it up wrong. I'd like to re-install FB and see if it really wasn't that big of a battery hog.
Anyway, after uninstalling those apps I mentioned above, I'm at 90% after 5-1/2 hours. Yesterday around this time I was probably somewhere around 60%. I'm still using Executive Assistant for 3 email accounts with frequent autopulls, active sync for Gmail and Google Calendar, and a few phone calls. I didn't go to work today, so that's 1 less hour of BT for the morning, and I've cut down onmy screen time but it's still a huge improvement.
I just may keep this phone after all.
GOOD NEWS EDIT:
I'm at a little over 24hrs with 43% left! Granted, I curbed my use to try and get a hold of what was going on with my battery: 30 min of calls, only 45 min of screen time, and a boatload of texts.
I realize the screen time is minimal, but it's an amazing improvement on my idle drain, which was the biggest problem. My phone actually goes into deep sleep! I forgot to check the % before I went to bed, but in the past, if I didn't plug in my phone at night with at least 30% charge, it was usually dead in the morning, or with single digit %s.
As far as I can tell, the culprit seemed to be NoLED. (Not trying to slam it or anything, because it's a cool program, but I'm pretty certain that was the issue.)
Hey peeps!
Got my new G6 two days ago and BOY is it a beautiful phone!
One thing though that I didn't expect to have issues with; the battery life is horrible.
First day I got just under 3 hours of screen-on-time.
Charged it and left it over night. Was at 94% when I went to bed and 51% when I woke up 8 hours later.
Can't be normal? I've tried resetting the phone, but I don't think it worked.
Left home at 9:55 and the battery was at 37%. Arrived at work at 10:33 and it was down to 31% and I had barely touched it during that time.
I'm new to Android so I'm not sure what to do next?
Help! :c
There's an issue with the phone sometimes draining for no apparent reason when it's sleeping. It's happening to a lot of people. Most likely it's a bug in Android 7.0 and will be fixed in the next Android update. For now I put my phone in Airplane Mode when I go to sleep. It fixes the problem and my phone only drains 1-2% overnight.
Let it settle for a while, at least for a week. You could try with a factory reset if you want, I didn't.
Now I have at least 4h SoT under wifi. I'm currently at 42%, after 19 hours from the last charge, and 3h45m of SoT.
Please bear in mind that 4G, traveling and low reception are generally speaking the main battery killers, and there is nothing you can do about that.
For those who complain about battery life of G6, Here is a short view
9am-5pm continuous voice recording with 1 hour break in between
Around 10-15 camera clicks
Browsing use BRAVE browser, disable chrome for better life. Use BRAVE browser which is based on same chrome platform but more efficient.- 2hours
Facebook app used 40min around
Twitter sometime
WhatsApp for around 2hours
Screen brightness between 35~50%
Two sim cards, one on 4g LTE
Screen on time 6hours 10minutes
Remaining battery-20%
There is something wrong with your battery. It should last about 5h SOT. Drain after the night should be about 2% with AOD disabled.
Something is draining your battery. Begin with turning off location services if it's enabled and see if that helps. I get minimum 5 hours screen on time and closer to 6-8 for the most part even when on mobile data a lot.
I've got the same problem. I'm rooted, have all sorts of bloatware disabled, running servicely and naptime. I've shut off my bluetooth and my location and I'm on Wifi. In the last 3 hours since I've unplugged my phone from the charger I'm sitting at 66% battery with 1 hour of screen time, 1.5 hours deep sleep, and 30 minutes awake. So I'm looking to get a little over two hours of screen on time. I can't think of anything else to do.
Look into disabling QuickMemo bull****.

I think there is not a battery problem
For me, It is surely a software bug.
I use AOD for all the day, 3 email account, WiFi and 4G on, many apps in background like facebook, messenger, whatsapp, telegram and other and I get 5.5hrs with 7% battery.
But only if I use the phone more than usual. Otherwise I got 3.5 hrs with the same configuration due to a big draining issue of the "idle phone" process.
Probably we have to wait the next big update hoping that it fixes everything.
I have oneplus 3t and lg g6 and htc u11 LG's battery is the best out of the three devices
I updated the phone with LG Bridge (there was no OTA updates available) and for some reason got a completely new firmware.
Not really an update but it installed a, what seems like, a firmware meant for the Chinese market. Had the Korean on before.
This *seems* to have fixed it.

Even with aod enabled I get less than 2% drain overnight on airplane mode.

The LG Bridge update didn't actually fix it. The problem was back after a while.
Downloaded GSam and realised that the Google Quicksearch Box was stuck in wakelock or whatever it's called so I disabled the Google App in settings and that did indeed fix the whole problem. My phone has been sitting at 98% for almost 3 hours now (haven't touched it obviously).

I've fiddled around with it a bit today, but the version installed from the Play store is still not working for me. Horrible battery drain.
I found a newer (beta) version on apkmirror that I installed and that seems to have fixed it. I've got the quick searchbox enabled and no battery drain so far. It's only been a few hours though but I don't think it's gonna flare up again. It should've by now if the problem was still there.

I've had a couple of force closes from the Google app and random battery drain at times that I couldn't pinpoint. Overall I've actually loved the battery life on the phone when the phone isn't reporting an idle drain. I appreciate the beta link, hopefully that fixes the problem I've had. :good:
Anyone else running this combination? My battery life was amazing until I got this watch. I can be on my phone now and just watch the percentage drop. Any tips to slow the drain down?
I have a gear s3 also and noticed battery drain, mainly the phone will not enter deep sleep hardly at all when the gear is connected and gear apps installed as well. I had samsung health installed as well.
Recently uninstalled health and all gear related stuff and now phone deep sleeps again nicely.
Have you figured out any workaround yet?
I have not figured out a workaround. It's definitely the watch causing it though. I turned the watch off one night and battery life went back to normal. I also have the Samsung Health app running. Only solution I have found is I charge the phone much more often than I used to, while at work. I love the watch and not parting with it.

interesting. I noticed the exact opposite. It seems my watch is now draining faster than before. the phone seems like it has the same capacity but the watch dies within 7 hrs with always on. I spent a few days messing with it but even shutting every connection off it hasn't changed. maybe the watch's battery just went bad? oh well. forward we go.. to the next trial.

I'd say that's your watch battery. My watch battery is amazing. After a full day, it's still in the 50s when I put it on charge around 10pm.. In fact, I have never seen the low battery warning since I've had it.

perhaps. I thought of that as well in trying to eliminate the problem. I have a request to send to samsung to replace the battery under warranty so let's see if that fixes it. It's just the timing of having great battery a few weeks ago with the nexus 6p to crapping out with the v30 was a strange coincidence. and btw.. go boys... that's all I have to say.
Hi all,
I am one of the many people complaining for the very poor battery life of the Exynos S9+, but my problem is more extended.
In the previous days I read all the topics related to battery drain in the S9+ and S9 sections of the forum, without finding any solution
My problem is very strange: every Samsung Galaxy I owned (S6, S7edge, S8 and now S9+) has a standby drain around 4%/hr. This is very bad, since more or less 60%-70% of my battery during a standard working day is drained without using the device. In 24hrs I can reach 0% battery with a few minutes of SOT.
I tried to disable almost everything (AOD, sync, location, google location history, nearby wifi bt search etc), hard resetted the device and started from scratch, but the standby drain is always the same.
The very strange thing is that if I configure with all the same apps and accounts a device which is not a Samsung galaxy I have maximum 0,5%hr standby drain. I tested it recently with Lg G6 and Xiaomi MiA1 and the drain is not present. Again, same apps and same setup of the phone.
There should be something specific in the configuration of my Galaxy devices that causes drain, but in 3 years I couldn't find it.
Is there anyone who can help me? What am I missing?

No, I will try today thank you. But for the most part of my day I am not under wifi, I am under 4g (full bars), so it will have effect only on the few hours I pass at home with the wifi connection

Ah ok, then this will maybe not help too much. Whats the battery usage percentage of your android system? Please add a screenshot of your statistics at the end of a battery cycle.
This is one of the best battery cycles of the last days:
12h 50min since unplugged
16% remaining battery
2:54 SOT
3,2%/hr standby drain
More than half of the SOT done under wifi during the evening, from 8:30am to 18:00 under 4g.
This is a terrible battery life, I cannot get to the end of a working day.. And this was one of the best days. Sometimes the standby drain is more than 4%/hr

Nothing obvious jumps out but that does look worse than normal, are you travelling around/ in bright sunlight a lot?
Few things to try -
1) Download betterbatterystats and enable through adb commands
2) what was the screen brightness like on GSAM?
3) factory reset did work for me
Something is wrong.
Do you have any apps running in the background all the time ?
Or dozens of accounts syncing?
Does your phone actually go into sleep or dozens mode ?
Do you have running bixby or google Assistent on ?
Do you use Iris scanner ?
Thanks for the support. I also have yesterday's screenshots of betterbatterystats, here attached.
It seems to sleep a good percentage of time.
No, I'm not traveling, I stayed the whole day in the office.
Accounts : Google, Facebook, WhatsApp, Twitter.
Yes, intelligent face scan is on
Same here i just bought the phone a few days ago. Disabled bloat and still i cant even get close to 24hours max apx 14 if i dont touch it. My Old S8Plus was so much better. Going to try a factory reset in the next few days. I must admit i did restore from a previous backup.

Facebook is a known battery hog, please try to use the official lite app from facebook. Intelligent scan always activates the iris scanner as soon as you turn on your device. Do you use your lockscreen alot while not unlocking your phone? During this time the iris scanner is wasting energy cause it constantly scans for your eyes. I have setup my device to start scanning only when i swipe up on the lockscreen.
Whats with that 1h20min of Google Play services. Did you use the playstore or some other stuff from Google for that long amount of time actively?

I will try today to remove Facebook and install Lite (the strange thing is that with my LG G6 and MiA1 with the official Facebook app I have zero problems).
Iris scanner and lockscreen are almost never engaged. The phone is sitting on the desk, and I wake it up through fingerprint most of the times.
Now here in Italy it's 11AM, the phone is unplugged since 7:30Am and the standby drain is already 4,5%/h

I have an S9+ Exynos since launch, and even when at first it came with some drain issues, those and many more were addressed with latest update (BRE).
From what I can see, you are using 2 SIM's and your signal is not that good, which contributes to the battery drain.
Other question: how are you doing the backup/restore of your things?, because the S9+ is known for being picky with these, and if you don't do it properly, it will impact battery and application behavior.
More info here (1:10):
https://youtu.be/mBAjdcP0ZEM
Is better if you can try a clean installation and remove/disable the things you don't use. I'm able to get +5hrs SOT in a period of 40-48hrs constantly; I recharge my phone every 2 days and the battery drain overnight is around 3%. I'm all stock, no root or ADB tweaks, and the only thing I don't use is AOD because is not useful for me.
Also I know many other people with similar results as mine, so is a matter of configuration or your phone is defective and you would need to change it.
Good luck!

Hi,
My main problem is that I have the same exact problem with the S8 and S7edge, but not with the LG G6... so it's something related to my configuration on samsung phones (same account, same apps, same everything). That's the reason why I'm sure that the phone is not defective.
I have the same problem if I use it in Single sim, and 90% of the day I am under full bars of 4G+ coverage.
The configuration started from scratch (did not start from previous backups). I had just setted up my google account and then reinstalled everything from play store. The only backup I recovered is Whatsapp (through the internal backup function of the app on google drive)
Thanks to everyone for the support!

Has no implications, it seems that for no reason that option drains a lot of battery for some, so maybe you want to give a try.
Everything works perfectly with it disabled, I run this options since I got my S9+ and is day and night difference.

Does this option stick on your phone? Its activated on mine again after each restart.
There is a battery thread in P6 Pro section, but we don't have an equivalent here, so...
How's your battery on regular Pixel 6? Can't post any data from my side, as it's still being dispatched....
with my normal phone usage I am ending up with about 30-40% at the end of the day. With my Pixel 5a I still got about 60% juice. I cannot complain. I've seen wild differences on youtube from others (both good and terrible).
My battery life seems to be just fine.
Mine seems fine, it's been idle more than anything and it'll probably be that way since I try not to use it too much. When I'm at work I can't really use my phone anyway, so I expect battery life to be strong.
I also have a battery app that monitors usage and health of the battery if anyone is interested.

Are you using Accubattery? If so, could you post your stats?

Yes I am. I only charged it once to 100 even though I know that's not good, but for first time I think it's ok.
I'm not sure i have enough stats to show since I've only used the app once to charge, but happy to share whatever info you need. Just let me know which screen to grab and I'll post.
comparison. Over 8 hours is pretty good.
I guess I can't complain.
Im getting about 9 hours of SOT. Using accubattery and this is while using youtube TV along with bluetooth (not using battery saver at all). The battery life is great on the pixel 6 pro and its a bit better than my s21 ultra.

I'm guessing my stats are good? Idk where it got 4 sessions over the last 4 days from, but I installed the app yesterday and had it charged at 100% around 3PM. From then on I would use it randomly, mainly using chat through IM apps. I haven't done anything super battery heavy yet. I'm at 8% as I sit and write this...
Dayum. That's some iphone 13 pro max stats there lol.
It all depends on the connectivity, e.g. @android_dan is using 5G which is battery hungry, and also network reception is really low here.
I have huge drain from mobile network standby. View attachment received_785539938832034.webp
I tried many different things and seems that the problem is with esim card.
I hope they will fix that soon.

Even on 5G I have no complaints about battery life. I'm getting up at 4:30 am and going to bed at 10:30 pm with 20-30% battery. We've had some weather delays so I've been on the phone a lot throughout the day. No complaints here.
So I am using my P6 for 3 days and battery life is amazing when screen is on (I can get like 12 hour of sot if I would spend all day looking at my phone), but idle usage is pretty high for me - getting like 3-4% per hour while screen off on LTE, 2g disabled, AoD disabled.
Is anyone experiencing the same? Or maybe I still need to wait for Adaptive Battery's magic?

I get 5% drop over night while I'm sleeping and connected to wifi. All apps closed in the background. I don't think that's too bad in my case. Definitely let things "settle" after the first few days of use. I've seen lots of improvement in battery after having the phone for a week.
I tend to get thru a whole day no problem! I turned network preferences to LTE cuz my area doesn't have great 5g and I don't find it slow at all. And I'm on wifi most of the time anyway. At the end of the day I have somewhere between 7-9 hours SOT which is amazing! I watch lots of YouTube videos and listen to music throughout the day. Hope this helps!
for me, the battery is a tragedy, it drops in my eyes, I was able to get a maximum of 4h sot. On average, I have 2.5 to 3.5 hours of sot. I have a recommended 4G network set. I use 2 sim.

I am afraid that it will not happen, Google has always not paid attention to e-sim activities. Pixel 5 running 1xsim + e-sim lost animations, they never made it better

They're actively looking into the battery drain issue, and some folks have had success with doing a factory reset.

I was able to find out what was causing my phone to be active and never enter a deep sleep, which has improved the battery drain I was having. I'm still not sure why mobile network standby fluctuates on me; sometimes it'll be as low as 3% and others in the 20 when I'm not doing anything different at home.
