Battery Drain SOLUTION ! - Samsung Galaxy S8 Guides, News, & Discussion

Hello peeps,
some story:
"
Just 3 days ago i bought my S8 comming from iPhone 7 Plus ( imagine the worry i had ) because of the phone sive/screen .
the 7 plus had a great battery which never disappointes you and yea i thought the s8 is the same.
first day i noticed the drain and i thought it is because the app downloading and so on .
some personal searching and tries here it is
"
To The Solution ( 2 ways to be done ) .
1 : Apps Location permission
Battery drains because of the GPS , any app with the permission could wake the gps and use it without using the app .
1- Go to settings -> Apps -> Press thr " 3 dots " ••• -> App permission
2- here is the treasure *huehue*
Go to " Location "
• Uncheck everything ( if you wanna keep some your choice but to see if the drain is stopped )
EXCEPT !
• √ Google play services ( sadly a MUST )
• √ Google ( for google assistant )
TA Daaaaa ! Done :laugh:
------------
2 : from Apps -> Google play services -> Storage -> Manage storage -> Clear All Data
√ nothing will be deleted nor changed from your google account
-------
Hope this helps you and cheers you up as it did to me when i reached to it :laugh:
the 3rd day im testing the battery with
AOD always !
LOCATION High accurasy
FHD+
WIFI 80% | Data 20% of time
Edge lightining
Youtube Fb Insta and so on
•
battery on 28-29%
with 5 h 30 mins SOT
cannot add attachments for a reason idk why :/
tell me the your results

Doing step 2 would further add to your woes as everytime you clean it, it would again build up the cache resulting in further drain. I agree with step 1 and you can further disallow it for few system apps like Samsung Connect, Bixby voice etc. Populate the system apps from the 3 dot menu in app permissions. Those are the real suckers.

It's also takes the battery/phone about 3-5 days to learn your usage pattern, so at first battery life doesn't seem that great.
Another HUGE battery drain on the snapdragon models is IQ services, you will need BK package disabler to disable app services.
Two bad drains are wifi always scanning and search for near by devices, those can both be turned off in settings/connections.

Great We have got EXTRA solutions . :good: :laugh:
Thank you guys :fingers-crossed:

Great trick, worked for me even with package disabler, custom tuned kernel, disabling that location permission improves my battery life for about 5-10%. Thanks

What are the process names? Can't seem to find it

Surprised no one has mentioned Facebook and Facebook Messenger. Both of them use a ton of battery but it's hidden from usage monitors.
Uninstaller both of them and install Facebook Lite and Messenger Lite.
Even those are resource hogs, though, so you can use BK Package Disabler to disable many of their processes (I believe it's 16 and 9 processes respectively) and boom, low resource Facebook apps.

Thanks! followed the steps on here and will report back. I was getting about 4 sot.
The fact that Facebook comes pre installed really grinds my gears.

Not just Facebook. Facebook, Facebook messenger, and two additional Facebook apks that deal with its own update system. It's ****ing ridiculous.

Not sure if we know about this. I tried it out for FB and it works: https://www.xda-developers.com/freeze-app-background-processes-without-root-android-nougat/
The apps just dont use any services when in background. No need of any drastic steps

It's in Android system app/services/iqservice tick to off, this is using BK package disabler only, I don't think the other package disablers have this option to shut off specific services within the app like BK disabler does.

Works for me! Thanks very much!
I looking for a solution have months. My galaxy S7 had the same problem and I had to sold. I bought S8 and after few week the same battery problems occurred. This is the only solution that really worked Thank very much!

Doesn't work?
What S8 are you using? Because there is no location option in my app three dots , nor is there a clear all data option in Google play services...

Disabling device maintanance also work for me as it running all time for no reason if you know how to clean, maintanace your phone. Nothing is broken only now cant see battery usage but install some sort of battery monitor app if you need this reports of usages..

This. If it weren't for fb and messenger, my battery life would be steller. With moderate use, thanks to them, I drain about 10-15% battery an hour. I caught them using the SystemPanel 2 app.

Anyone know what "IntelligenceSevice2" is? Safe/beneficial to disable or no?

Greenfly question

Hi all
Just downloaded greenfly on my none rooted nexus 5, seems to work fine however when I select my apps to hibernate then click the button to hibernate them all its ok, but if I go back on my phone and press hibernate again it always re does Facebook and Facebook messenger even if I have not opened them since.
It's like they have reopened themselves.
Any reason for this? It does not do it all the time just at random times.
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
you are new to android? apps open themselves is the norn, especially terribly written apps like facebook. its designed to open by itself and work in the background. if you kill it, itll just reopen. facebook creates wakelocks that will wake it whenever it wants. you dont like it? root your device, install the disable services app, block facebooks capabilities from constantly waking itself and your device. remembered, with linux, its considered that not used up ram is a waste of ram.
This is one of the reasons why I use the web broswer instead of the app.
Did you enable the service in accessibility?.
As above Apps will wake up the device, if the service is running it should do that automatically,

Just going back to this is there a good 3rd party Facebook app that is more battery friendly?
Yep I was on stock rooted for a while with Facebook installed I would get 2 hours sot but as soon as I removed it I got 4-5 hours of sot

Best battery back up rom suggestions please

I use like 150 apps installed in the phone.
Tried pie open beta(and also other custom roms) with kernels and other greenify apps but battery sticks with 5 to 6 screen on time.
I feel grateful if someone can help me getting the backup 7 or 7+.
I hear some guys are getting 8 and plus sot. I don't know how if everyone is using the same phone. I don't use phone for gaming. My usage involves with social media, YouTube, chats and 40 to 60 minutes using maps and gps.
Is it because of number of apps installed?
It's not about apps installed unless they keep the phone awake at all time, wish I don't think they do.
Unfortunately the best thing to do is just stop using social media lol.. Facebook and snapchat atleast.. Those apps are true battery killers.
If you feel like Facebook is really something you NEED in your life then skip the app and use the browser instead.
The other thing is making sure apps that you don't need notifications from is blocked from background usage in Battery, total usage, click the app you know you can block and select background usage, block
Last is managing the brightness, now there are times for full blast on the display and there is times for low light, don't let the screen blast your eyes if it's not needed to.

I agree... Facebook is a Hog. And they push you into using Facebook messenger as well... :-/
I use this... It's a pretty slick front-end for Facebook that uses little of the resources that the app does. It also let's you use messenger without installing it on mobile!

150 apps lol, how can you manage so much, I think just a simple browser can help you get rid of atleast 100 of them. I never understand the need of app which works on a site on a desktop. Just to keep track of your location and what you are searching online, these apps track you and kills your battery. Go smart, use no tracking browser like bromite and live the freedom.
Now for ROM part, I get the best battery with any OOS + elementalX kernel. None of the custom rom are better than OOS and yes don't forget to remove all Google apps and OnePlus apps, they track you.
Also install betterbatterystats to check what is killing your battery, I easily get upto 8 hrs. of sot if no pubg.

Check again after a few days.... Btfery drain is always worse after a factory reset or on a new phone as Android learns your usage Patterns
I have a 10+ running on Pie.
It took me months to sort out excessive battery usage. If your phone is running warm at idle you need to track down the causes. I use PD MDM package blocker which helps a lot if used wisely. A lot of junk that needs to be disable in settins too. My nominal battery usage screen off, plain jane AOD on is 1% an hour. Surfing the web, watching a vid is about 10% an hour. Your device probably uses more though even when optimized not sure though.
In Samsung Device Care, use factory load if it is the one with 360 degrees on it. Do not update.
•In Device Care punch Optimize for power/screen setting.
•Toggle on fast charging and -nothing- else. (see image)
You can then package block this app.
•This configuration will also keep power management from unwantedly killing apps in use like Poweramp. All other unused apps should go into standby mode when not in use or screen off... without power management options being toggled!
Use no 3rd party power management and for now don't toggle any apps to sleep.
•In Developer options>stand by apps, all buckets should show as active, if not unwanted power management is active.
Let the base Google default settings handle power management. Enabling advanced power management appears to cause conflicts leading to excessive CPU/battery usage.
•Any cloud app will steal power and bandwidth, Google Backup Transport and Goggle Services Framework are prime offenders.
•Disable all carrier, Samsung, Google etc diagnostic feedback as well as carrier updates and Playstore.
Enable as needed.
•Use Samsung Gallaxy Labs Battery Tracker to help track usage.
Framework will still show usage with AOD is active about 1% @ hour when blocked. It should be well below 1% when phone is active.
I've posted more detailed info in the 10+ forum.
Each phone configuration varies so try these suggestions, what works for me may or may not work for you.
Get a package disabler and start locking it down... play with it.

Thanks for sharing your tips here.
Which app are you referring to? Is it Package Disabler Pro? Searching "PD MDM" brings up a whole load of different PD apps on the Play Store.

You're welcome.
They aren't on Playstore. You have to look a little or know about them.
Been using it for at least 3 years probably longer. Very stable. A great tool for non-rooted Samsungs.

Stopped using that paid one from Police-whatever because their lame app stopped being able to block AT&T updates.

Thanks for link. It's weird though, as the app made by Policedeveloper on the Play Store has the same UI and same name, they also use identical screenshots with an old Samsung phone model! I wonder if they are the same developer or one has copied the other.
I was using the one on the Play Store but it did break after upgrading to Android 10. I am considering buying the app you recommend but don't want to get burned again. I know its not a lot of money but I don't want to be sold a lemon!

Don't know who stole what but know I'll never use anything from Policedeveloper again. Trashware.
Didn't appreciate their lame attitude when I emailed them either.
I've used PD MDM on Kitkat and Pie. Lol, no plans to jam Q into my 10+ though; it's running stable and fast.
I was apprehensive at first too, but they have consistently given me a quality app.
If they say it's compatible you should be good to go.

In Google Play Services>app permissions, disable all to get Google Transport Framework from using excessive battery. Google Transport Framework and Google Transport are package blocked as well. The former is the last step to shut these power sucking background apks down. So far I haven't lost any functionality I use.
Took me a year to track all of these down. Ha!
Should be 94 blocked apks, may have lost some in the confusion of manipulating the list.
Some of the blocked apks I've enabled the widget toogle to turn them off/on like Playstore.
•I'm running a 10+ on Pie... no idea how the Fold on Q will respond to this list but probably similarly.
•This list is customized for my set up and circumstances; each user's needs are different.
Best practice is to formulate your own list... the hard way. That way you'll learn what the apks you're blocking do and how the apks interact/their dependencies.

Bixby Voice Wake-up Service draining Battery

Hi, I own the Galaxy Note 20 Ultra and I noticed after some research that the Bixby voice wake-up service uses more than 20% of the battery which is ridiculous since I don't even use Bixby. I turned off Bixby voice wake-up toggle but that didn't change anything and I still find this among the running services under the developers' menu.
Did anyone else notice this? is there a way to disable it permanently? I even tried blocking it using the alliance shield x but it didn't work and it remained active
Update your apps to the latest version using Galaxy Store. Few years back when Google Play Services used to cause serious battery drain, a simple updated used to solve the problem.
Use GSam Battery Monitor to find out what is really eating up your kidney.

all of the apps are updated. And it states clearly in the picture attached that it used 22% so why would I need another app? I mean I already know what drains the battery

Apologies, I did not mean to underestimate your knowledge. Some system apps are tied with other packages, for an example, Android Framework app is located at /system/framework/framework-res.apk, this is one APK.
But many many apps demand it, so they are tied together. If one of the tied apps drained 17% of battery, it'll show you that Android OS app (AKA Android Framework app) has drained that much of energy.
Whilst the fact could be different, that's why simple battery stats is not totally accurate.
If you are consistent in your position, you can disable Bixby Voice through ADB.
* The attached screenshot is from data usage info, just to show you that there is apps linked to other apps.

No need to apologize. On the contrary, it was me who didn't get your post very well. You are definitely right. Some services aren't stand-alone and they are usually linked to other apps or packages. But I will disable this service anyway using ADB and check if it disappears from the list.
Did u solve the promblem?i need serios help...mine is draining 40% of the battery

Excessive consumption Google Play Services

Hi, I've been with Google play Services since yesterday, draining my battery, they are always connected in the background.
I have deleted all the data, I have deleted the app updates but it is still the same.
Does anyone know what it is due to? any solution? format the phone?
Thank you.
Disable it when not needed.
Google Background Transport, Playstore and Gmail are dependencies of it. Even when behaving it's a power parasite.
If you factory reset the issue will likely return... don't attempt to fix it like that!
Clear system cache, use Device Care to clean storage, clear Google GMS data, disable Google Framework if present and Backup Transport*. Turn off Google Firebase.
You can also try deleting then recreating your Google account but like a factory reset don't expect miracles if you do... just wasted time.
*if consuming excess battery with screen off Backup Transport is a likely suspect.
I have formatted the mobile and it is correct until I install a game from Google play where the following message appears "google play services will install additional components 3.6 megabytes that are necessary to use this application"
If you install any game that has that warning, it starts to drain the battery and get quite hot.
Any solution?
Until 3 days ago this did not happen to me, I updated my Wacth 4 classic and bought Streets of rage 4 from google play the problems started.
thank you

Keep the junkware off the device.
Update/upgrade at your own peril.
This stock N10+ is still running on Pie, hasn't been updated in 2.5 years, it's current load will be 2 yo this June with minimal maintenance. It's still snappy fast and stable. Security simply isn't an issue. What's not to like?

Fair enough, good!
I have one game install and it's internet access is always firewall blocked. Just because it's on Playstore doesn't mean it's "safe".
Any Google services in general tend to be a pain and battery hogs. I normally keep Google play Services disabled unless needed, that tones Google down a lot. Gmail, Playstore and Backup Transport are some of it's dependencies.
Firewall blocking Playstore after activating bought Playstore apps and also firewall blocking those apps themselves cuts down the constant Playstore lincense checks.
Karma Firewall uses very little battery however it's valuable logging feature is not functional on Android 10 and above. However it will still block apps, services and list those present. Lost is the time stamp of the app's last internet connection except on Android 9 and lower... this is a very useful feature.
For stock Androids other firewalls are available but many use a lot of battery. Not sure of a better alternative with low battery usage on Android 10 and higher. It may exist...

I don't know. Let me know if you find a good one.
