I stumbled across the below sensor (BSS_InDisplaySensorHelper) being one of the culprits for higher than usual battery drain.
It appears to be the fingerprint sensor displaying on the AOD. To stop the battery drain set show icon when screen is off to never. This appears to drain the battery regardless if you use AOD or not. I'm assuming this would effect all devices across the galaxy s21 range, maybe others can confirm?
You can use gsam battery monitor to check if you have the same issue on your device. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gsamlabs.bbm
Hope this helps others as it worked for me.

"Fingerprint always on" try turning off...
Or just don't use a lock at all.

Check to see if you have the same drain regardless if you use AOD or not. Possible sensor bug that needs to be corrected by Samsung with an update.

AOD probably is not be the issue. Other apks like Google play Services, Backup Transport, Framework and any other cloud apks will commonly run in the background with the screen off eating globs of power.
Worse, they're aren't always reported correctly ie another apk is actually the perp.

I've noticed the same. This wakelock has always been there. However aod off seems to improve battery drain.
Hi, I have the same problem here except the option to disactivate it is greyed out because of power saving (which means it's either no the cause of the problem or one of the many ways samsung is ****ing with the user with contradictory options)

I never have used the fingerprint sensor or screen lock on either of my Note 10+'s.
Not even tested it.
The amount of potential trouble it could cause is epic with nothing to gain.
Double tap on/off
If this is the cause the work around is simple, turn it off. I can almost guarentee you that isn't the only app running in the background though.
It may not be the worst offender.
Also keep in mind app usage is sometimes misreported by the phone.
I just bought my S21 (exynos) 1 week ago. One UI 4.0 installation was a clean one. My friend bought an S21 FE (exynos too) at the same time.
I have a battery drain problem. He has not. I know these are not the same phones but not so different though. He can get 7-8 hours of SOT but I can get 4-5 hours most.
Here's my latest graphs (in turkish but I'm sure you'll understand):
https://imgur.com/a/aG0gWoT
Is this a normal draining? I performed any tricks that I found in the internet. But nothing changes. Now I'm using BBS to get the issue but nothing is unordinary.

My GS5 keeps waking up in my pocket...I'm assuming that it is because the home button is being pressed. Is there a ROM out there that has pocket detection so that it won't wake up if it's in your pocket?

I currently have alliance rom v2 installed.
This is located under settings, custom settings, lock screen mods.
Also, I believe wanam x posed can do it, I'm not sure though.
Get this from Google Play.

Thanks...just installed...so far, so good!
So I installed that ROM, and Faux123's kernel, and it appears to be working great. I wish there was true pocket detection so I didn't have to disable the home button wake, but this will work for now.
Some lock screen apps e.g. Dynamic notifications pro can be configured to do what you want. They monitor the proximity sensor to know when you pull the phone out of your pocket.

The problem with that tho is it polls the sensor, which drains battery. The air wake feature of our device checks the orientation of the device. I would like to change it so it works on all orientations so when removed from pocket it would wake. That would be the perfect setup.

You quoted multiple people who had disparate solutions. Speaking only for myself, I was talking about a lock screen app, not a ROM. And it can be configured to do what you are wishing for. Block accidental use of the home button when locked. Realize when it is pulled from a pocket and wake up.
And it satisfies your newly expressed requirement as well; namely that it is not harsh on battery life. If you search my post history, I even quantified the battery use for that app.

Its still using more battery then the system framework can. Therefore its harsh on the battery for people who wish to get 18+ hours on battery. I make apps. I know how to read proximity sensor values. and you need to keep the device awake in order to do it. Maybe using root it would be different.
Anyhow, i was nowhere bashing any app. I was simply stating that instead of replacing your entire lockscreen, you could hack into the already existing code and make it ignore the orientation of the device to achieve what the OP is after.
Nothing you said refutes my comments or their conclusion. So we'll just have to disagree on the subject.
Hello, everyone!
With the new update on Android 6.0 I was pretty curious to see how the new feature "Doze" will work.
Unfortunately it seems that it's not working for my device.
Can you please give me some advice to figure out a solution?
Here is a screenshot, showing my battery stats.

Nobody who can help?
I tried changing the WLAN frequency to 2,4 GHz, but nothing happened.
The battery only drops very slowly when deactivating WLAN... But that can't be the Doze feature, isn't it?

Here's an app that let's you adjust your doze settings. Maybe you can use it to make your N9 doze sooner and longer.
Sent from my Nexus 9
There is a known issue with DOZE and WIFI on the Nexus 5 that affects some but obviously not all.
I had the same problem on my N5 that was resolved by completely disabling WIFI.
I don't have any issues with Doze on my N9 but I do have wifi set to off when screen is off and device isn't plugged in so maybe that's an option as well.

That second option sounds interesting. So you know if this setting (WiFi set to off when screen is off) affect apps like Spotify? It should not interrupt the playback via Spotify when screen will be off.
I'm asking because I can't try it at the moment. A friend of mine got my tablet until Sunday...
Sent from my HTC One (M7)
It's in the advanced wifi settings and it's actually called "Keep WIFI on during Sleep" and the options are always, only when plugged in and never.
I actually went back and looked at the pic you posted and it looks are though you got 4+ days of life (uplugged around Nov 4th and looks like it is around Nov 8th) and you are still at 28%.
I don't think there is anything abnormal assuming the tablet was indeed in use periodically during that time.
My tablet, when NOT in use at all (sitting in a drawer) will consume around 3% battery over a 15 hour window. But that can drastically change if I use it at all during that time.

Hey guys im using this AOSP rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-2/orig-development/rom-saosp-project-t3228656 .
Since a few days my phone shows 75 % battery usage for "phone idle" and its charging extremely slow. when i use it while charging it even loses battery while still on ac .
Does deep sleep not work anymore? i uninstalled some apps i installed because i thought they might cause this but nothing changed. im trying to calibrate the battery now
but charging to 100 % takes like 12 hours even if i dont use my phone. Does anyone know what suddenly happened?
I have also noticed a constant battery drain since I got my phone a few days ago (I'm on the other AOSP rom on this forum, the one by susch19).
It appears to be common knowledge that MediaTek chips have wifi problems, preventing the wifi module to go to sleep when it should.
If that is your problem, you can see several long-running kernel wakelocks using Wakelock Detector, for example md1_cldma_peer and EINT - mine had been active for about 50% of the time during two days of stats collection.
I have just finished charging my phone to 100% and disabled wifi and will check the battery drain overnight and throughout the next day.
I am using that rom and no problem at all.
Use wakelock detector and greenify/uninstall all offending apps...
i think your are right about the kernel/wifi. here's a screen of wakelock detector.

No idea what those apps are but u should definitely greenify them or do something.
There is an app that switch off net and gps when screen is off with some conditions... don't remember the name.
this is the kernel how am i supposed to greenify it ? there are no apps causing this. i greenified all apps even uninstalled the most and still this battery drain. its probably like Xabin said and has sth to do with the wifi/kernel and the MediaTek chip having wifi problems, preventing the wifi module to go to sleep when it should.
Yep that's why I suggested a smart manager to switch off completely the radio when not in use. Google is your friend.
it is able to reenable radio time to time to catch up with emails or messages...
anyone suffering massive battery drain when using lightly? 15mins of simple browsing and youtube and it drains from 100 to 85%. Im on miui7 lhmmici 7.0.5.0
I was disappointed with the battery drain in miui, but it seems much improved since installing the AOSP Hybrid rom. Also doesn't seem to drain so much with screen on, though I've not quantified it.
Had same problems with wakelocks, but Greenify and Amplify module in Xposed have made a noticeable improvement. Occasionally get a 100% wakelock with aee_core_forwarder. Still not sure what causes it; haven't found a fix other than a reboot.
But overall, I'm satisfied with the battery life now.

It's around 1.7%/h for my Snapdragon S10 lite. Is this normal?
It's normal if some media is running in background, for example. My phone has an average of 0,8%/hour according to AccuBattery.
turn off Bixby and google
turn off adaptive brightness
Seems a little high but I'm on a 10+ with 4300ma battery. Adjust accordingly to your battery capacity.
Nominal AOD battery usage should be about 1% an hour. You can enable tap on for AOD to help determine the source of the drain; usage should be very low like that.
Goggle Backup Transport and Backup Transport Framework were causing excessive battery drain for me both with SOT and off.
Update: left my phone at 99% and woke up to 80%
Here is the usage: GSAM
Look at the 5h of Significant Motion Detector usage of Google Play Services and how the Netflix app is using so much battery (I never opened that app since buying the phone...)
I then proceeded to install Better battery stats and found after some hours of usage a huge Spotify battery drain related to the Linear acceleration sensor.
I am getting kind of tired. Since I started using android (Nokia X2, Lenovo K6 power, Redmi note 7 then S10 lite), I have had some kind of a battery drain on all of those devices. Getting tired of troubleshooting problems rather than use the damn phone.
Ditch spotify or lock it down.
You probably have more crapware...
You need to learn how to optimize these phones.
Play with it.
Hey guys its me again.
I disabled Spotify and still have 20% drain overnight...
What can I do please?

Install Galaxy Labs>Battery Tracker from the Galaxy store and see what apks it shows is running at night.
Wipe cache in recovery. View what app use your battery. If this don't help make HR (hard reset and wipe all data , ) if this don't help use guarantee ...
I manually updated to One UI 3.0.
No more battery drain as far as I can tell. I will update with overnight drain.

Hi folks,
I'm wondering if anyone has a solution to this: Immediately following applying the June update, I noticed certain apps (crucially, Angry Birds2) were being closed in the background as soon as I switch to other apps. Previously, I could have AB2 open, go do other things on the phone, come back half an hour, and AB2 would still be open. Now, even brief switches to other apps results in it being closed.
Figuring it had been switched to a higher level of battery optimization, I checked the AB2 app and made sure it was still Unrestricted (it is).
Battery Saver is off.
Adaptive Battery is on, but it was before the update too.
What other settings do I need to monkey with to fix this?
Thanks in advance!
Developer options>standby apps, check bucket state of app. It should be active.
If that's the case disable all global power management. If disabled all buckets show as active and their state can't be altered.
Google global power management never worked right. Turn all that junk off.
Deal with power hogs on a case by case basis instead. In settings individual apps can be set to not run in background without invoking global power management.

For AB2 it shows "exempted" and is grayed out. What does that mean? Meanwhile I'm turning off Adaptive power. Anything else I need to turn off, while I'm at it?

Exempted? More like KIA Erratic behavior is typically what it causes on my Samsung's.
In power management the only thing I enable would be fast charging if you want that.
Not familiar with Pixel settings but they are similar as it's a Google Android based subsystem.

Sadly all similar settings are now turned off and the phone has been rebooted. AB2 still closes nearly instantly when I switch to another app. Sigh.

Try clearing app cache.
More drastically delete data or reinstall it.
It may be the app itself is no longer compatible now and needs an update.
On a Samsung my first choice would be to clear the system cache found on the boot menu. I've been told Pixel's don't have this option.
Personally I avoid all OTA updates as they can and do break things. Pie and above are fairly secure if you don't do stupid things.
