Hi all,
So i noticed today that gear vr service drained over 20% of battery since it was last charged. And that was maybe 2h after it was charged. There were no updates nor i've been using it at all. Anyone knows why? And can someonee tell me how can i disable that service, since i really dont need it. The "disable" button is greyed out.

Hi, I installed the S3 update over the air to my Korean S2 a couple of days ago. Everything seems fine except for issues with the battery. I Can take the watch of the charger after an overnight charge and wear it all day, powering it off before i go to bed in the evening. When i shut it down the charge can be over 50% but when i power it back on in the morning the charge is just over 10%. If i leave it powered on but not on charge the percentage will increase over the next couple of hours back to just under 50%. The problem is i can never be sure what the true state of charge is, so i am unsure whether it will last the day.
Anyone else having this issue or know how to fix it?
I have problem with battery. Battery is discharging really fast.
That's weird. My battery life seems pretty good. My watch has been off the charger for 5 hrs and I'm still at 94%

Yeah, it looks like that first 2-3 charging cycles were not good, but today I have really good battery life. ... So my problem is solved.
On the old firmware I could wear it 16 hours and put it back on the charger with over 60% left. Since the update I am down to 20% in four hours. I've done 2 hard and one soft reset to no avail. The battery thing on the phone app says its my watchface and I should use a dark one but I am. This, frankly, is a show stopper. I can't recharge 2 or 3 times a day. Any idea how to reinstall the R734XXU2DPG1 firmware? That worked.
Apparently a couple of recharges fixes the battery issue. Don't know why but it does. So far at least.
Hi
I just updated my gear s2 classic yesterday with the new ota, my battery doesn't even last for 2 hours now, before it gave me 1_1.5 days. In battery usage it shows 22% usage by contacts and 19% watchface even though I'm using the stock with no customization and even the background is same as default for menus.
I've denied the permission for gear plug in for contacts even then the drain is too fast.
How can we fix this, any ideas.
I just bought this watch a few days ago.. its a Sprint 3g Gear S2. The battery drains from full to empty in about 4-5hrs. The battery also drains faster than it charges when its sitting on the dock. I turned off WiFi and the 3g stuff and that didnt help it at all.. Am I missing anything?
Wow it's strange. I've a Gear s2 classic and I can use it 2/3 days with one charge. Do you use the watch with the esim? The cause could be the 3G that drains your battery. Do a hard reset and try without esim for check if is a watch's problem.
If the problem persists is a hardware issue, then validate the warranty.
Hi All users,
I bought the watch in October 2017. Model RM-760. The charge was going very badly for the last one month. The charge of my watch was only going for half a day. I took it to an authorized service center (in Istanbul/TURKIYE). They changed the battery. They didn't get paid. Changed battery by warranty. But the problem continues. I turn on the watch at 6:00 am while it on full charge. Battery charge ends in the afternoon at 17:00 . Software version 3.0.0.2. The charge decreases by 10% - 15% within one hour.
Very bad situation.
I'm researching other brand watch to buy.

Hi, i have same problem, how to fix this problem?
Working great after replacing battery
I had horrible battery life for quite some time. I went ahead and did the upgrade to Tizen 4 hoping it would be better, but it got worse. Finally I couldn't get the watch to remain working - it would just shut down. I figured it was a failed battery and bought a new one on eBay. The new battery worked wonders. My watch lasts all day (6:30 am to 5:00 pm) with 75-80% battery remaining. So, I don't know if your tech experts really did change the battery? It's not for the faint of heart - special screws and tiny ribbon cables - I mean tiny. I didn't expect my watch to work at all, but it did and is better than new.
Hope this helps and good luck.

Please put your watch on airplane mode for at least 3-4 hours and see if you get drain. If there's no drain, Could be your phone that something changed....
And battery drain problem has been solved.
Hi,
Samsung authorized service replaced my watch's motherboard from warranty.
And battery drain problem has been solved.
It' s working very good.
Thank you,
Has anyone else seen issues with the watch draining it's battery even when it's turned off.
I have been only using the Watch 4 mainly at the weekends, and using my watch 3 through the week while at work.
I had the watch 4 fully charged up before I had turned it off, 2 days later after turning it back on to check it, I found that the battery had gone done to 15 percent.
So how can it drain the battery when it's turned off?

Thanks for the reply, but I had already been through that that and there's no mention of anyone having issues with the watch turned totally off.
I can understand some issues with the battery drain within that thread, and also read that over time the watch battery life does extend over multiple charges, but with the watch being turned off, and with no usage whatsoever, I can not understand how the battery would still drain by the amount it has.

I would suggest manually turning off each component, such as WiFi, BT, sensors, etc. before turning the watch off and check if that makes any difference. If there is an improvement, it would indicate that those components are still powered on even when the watch is supposed to be off. If that is the case, then it could be a few different defects, but you would likely need to contact Samsung for further troubleshooting. You could try resetting the watch in case it is a software/firmware issue preventing a full shutdown, but if that doesn't work, then it is likely a hardware issue.
Hello! Yesterday i bought a Galaxy watch 4 and it randomly started draining REALLY fast and for nothing. I had to charge it 2 times in 3 hours, when i was sleeping and enabled bedtime mode my battery drained 20% and i didnt even use it. Is this normal because i just bought it?
EDIT: So i looked in the settings on my phone and compass is using 9% but i never opened it or used it?
Turn off location/wifi and stuff you don't need, only enable them when you use them
