If you use NextRadio, don't upgrade to Android 11 - Samsung Galaxy S10e Guides, News, & Discussion

I had NextRadio working perfectly on my S10e under Android 10. I recently performed the official update to Android 11, and now NextRadio says it can't access the FM radio chip in my phone
If I could downgrade, I would, since I haven't seen enough improvements in Android 11 to compensate for the lack of FM radio.
Now if I could just get the Samsung Radio app to install...

I just found this: https://source.android.com/setup/start/android-11-release#audio-capture-from-fm-tuner-permission
It may explain why NextRadio fails under Android 11

yes fm radio no longer works after update. crazy battery drain in 10e.

@guest_2011 Are you suggesting that the battery drain is why Samsung disabled it?

no, i'm just saying it doesn't work for me and others after update. I don't know what causes battery drain. It's only in my s10e. No noticeable drain or improvement in s10.

Got it. It seemed to me like battery life was reduced right after the upgrade, but with time it got somewhat better. However, it still seems to be worse than under 10. I now charge my phone to 85% every morning to get through the day, rather than 80% under 10. (Or maybe my battery is just getting old!)

If you force install the default samsung fm radio app it crashes with this on Android 11:

Android O Beta Battery Terrible

Very very high system use.
How long after upgrading so far?
Sent from my Pixel using Tapatalk
Do a factory reset. My battery life is as good as Nougat, if not better.
I've found the standby battery life to be exceptional. However, screen-on time is reduced. The screen definitely uses more battery on this DP4 than the stock ROM.

This is exactly what I'm experiencing. Unfortunately, my SOT is 2 hours less than Android Nougat. Standby with screen off time is exceptional.

Yeah, I used the support feature under settings to submit that observation and my logs. I would be surprised if they weren't already aware. I wonder if it's a screen driver issue and reverting would fix it if it's some other software optimization that needs tweaking. I hope they bring it up to par with Nougat because aside from that, I really like Android O (Orange Whip).

Same observations here. The standby time is about on-par with N, but during screen on/use, the battery life is reduced. My observation is that the idle CPU load/utilization is higher when compared to N. With N, my idle CPU load is around 1 to 3%. With O, my idle CPU utliliztion averages 10-15%. I am seeing exactly the same thing on all 3 Pixel/XLs that I have.
Because O elevated secruity in various areas, none of my diagnostics tools work. I therefore cannot identify what specifically is consuming the CPU. I believe this is the key to figuring out the excessive drain when screen is on. With the little I can glean, it is part of the syste process (as the OP has identified). Let's hope the September patch (if there is one) will resolve the issue.
As a related interest, I have O running on a Nexus 5X and it has no such issue.
All the phones are using EX kernel.

I actually came on to express this exact issue for my device. I went from about 4 hours SOT to 2, the same as you. But idle it seems I can go for 3 days. What the heck happened? Something went wrong somewhere.

My theory is the screen or the CPU is using more battery on Oreo then it did on Nougat. My apps seem to be behaving normally. Hope it's fixed soon.
Mines been terrible since the Oreo update.
Think I'm going to go back to Nougat ?

Battery Drain on Android Pie?

Hi All--
I've been on the Android P Beta for a while.
However, starting with the final beta that was released (and now on the final version of pie) I've been experiencing really quick battery drain.
Tried a total wipe and restore, and the same thing. My wife (also the pixel) isn't having those issues at all.
Thoughts?
(nothing shows up in the battery section)
Yes, I had great battery life. Then once Android Pie was released, jumped on the beta to get 9 sooner. Then got the upgrade from beta to final and battery life is horrible. I did not factory reset, I have battery saver on and it doesn'tseem to matter. If I leave on standby, no issues. If I use the phone, it can bleed as much as 10% per hour! Unacceptable. I may try factory resetting, but idk...
have you allocated sufficient time for app battery optimization?
I also have a pixel, Android 9.0/Pie (bought it brand new three days ago) and think battery is draining very (!) quick.
Yesterday I had roughly 2.5 SOT (with battery saver enabled) and this seems consistent with what I can expect typically. I did factory reset and have tried restricting "background activity" for my frequent apps - seems to make no difference. Obviously it had not time to do full battery optimization yet I guess, but I doubt it would mean a that big difference?
Saw a thread where someone mentioned it seems CPU-freq is high/inc. very rapidly when just tapping the screen (GPU-0%), and I can agree with that although I have not the prev. experience of what to expect.
My previous experience is with Xiaomi mi6/mi5 (lineage 15.1), similar usage would give 2x or 3x SOT (however with some other hw-issues.. ).

Flashed factory image without -w/"wipe". Will that do or should it be "full" factory reset to make sense?
Thank you for your information, I will stay on Oreo.

I don't think it would make a difference. The user data is on a different partition.
You could try flashing the image again, without Magisk or any other additions.
I had used up 50% with only 21 minutes screen on time.
I noticed the app Device Health Services, was constantly active in the background.
I had the same like the OP: everything was fine until the last beta came, and battery is draining faster, phone gets hot from even the smallest usage even in the prod release of android pie.
I was thinking it has something to do with being about 36 degrees (summer time....), but it is the same even in cooler temperature rooms. It's like if the phone is constantly doing something in the background, but only if I use it.
It has been a few days since I upgraded my Pixel 2. Battery life is noticably worse, maybe 20-30% more battery drain in a day than what I saw in Oreo.
I notice the issue as well. I did factory reset after update it's been a week. I was on beta and started noticing battery issues in the first beta and throughout. I decided to install Accubattery to track my battery usage and ended up with a result.
My phone states the battery is in good condition but this app says otherwise. I guess it's time to change the battery along with cracked screen!
i'm curious if my battery is shot as well... Seems like after I purchased my used Pixel.. the battery is not as lasting as I hoped for the smaller pixel phone... I may try one of those battery testing apps to see if it will tell me its current health..
I normally welcome up updates, but this update screwed up my battery life so bad. I mean everything was perfect until the update. Now the battery drains so fast I can watch the percentage count down like a timer and now when the battery gets anywhere from 15-40% the phone will just shut down.
I would like to go back to oreo, but it's such a pain in the ass having to back everything up and flash a ROM considering I haven't done that since before I bought the pixel
I have the same problem. I hope Google can fix it.
Wow, that is not normal. Stock android 9 with root and elemental kernel.... I go back to android 8.1.0 and wait for feature releases
I think I found an Draining App/Setting
I disable the RCS Service on my Phone. It can be found under Messages >> 3 dot Menu >> Settings >> broadcast News. Disable it.
And then Bluetooth and WiFi scan disable.
Same here, crazy idle drain after pie, only 50% deep sleep, tried factory reset and no luck

Don't install the Android 10 update

On the other thread I said I'd solved the battery drain issue but that's not the case. My battery life is about 60-70% of what it was on Pie.
This is NOT Vivo's fault. Searching the internet and other forums it's clearly Google's fault. There are hundreds of complaints about this Android 10 battery problem on every major brand including Pixels, Samsungs and Oneplus. The issue seems to be on phones that upgraded to Android 10 from 9. I haven't seen complaints from those that came with Android 10.
Download and keep it but don't install (if possible) until a patch is pushed.

UPDATE: My phone started behaving much, much better after I disabled the Always on Display. It was draining at around 7% per hour on standby with AOD enabled. Disabling it dropped the drain to about 3.7% per hour on standby and 9% per hour whilst in use. That's normal battery drain for my use.
So now I don't have AOD but I can live with that if it means restoring the excellent battery life. It also gave me the opportunity to reinstall the ancient No LED app from APKpure and lo and behold it works great whilst giving me an LED notification light. So far the app has had no effect on battery life, so that's a plus.

Battery Drain (Pixel 4a Global)

I reformatted to factory settings, and even reinstalled all factory images. I still get a lot of battery drain daily. the battery details screenshot indicates that Google is always on and Suspend Wakelock is always on. what can I do to fix this issue? I am unable to keep this phone otherwise. I always have battery drain issues on Android yet seems as though Google has not provided a stable fix...
I cant get even one hour of screentime on Android until it hits 80%.
I just need to know how to fix the Wakelock issue because I think that's what it is. I tried Wakelock apps but they don't do anything.
EDIT: resolved. just reflashed using Android Flash Tool and that corrected it.

Oy Vey. Battery life (power consumption) is outstanding on this device right out of the box. No rogue wakelocks here. Misbehaving apps and panel brightness are the two biggest drainers. Adjust your life and so called "SOT" will improve. Note the battery is 'only' ~3140 mAh. Don't expect all day longevity if gaming or in constant use. That's not what this phone is about.
I was able to resolve the issue by reflashing. I had used BBS hence why the suspendlockout at 100%.
Steps to resolve. (aware that this may not be the most ideal option for some)
- Reflash using the Android Flash Tool (don't manually update, just use the flash tool provided by Google)
- Start from scratch. Do not restore from backup. Install most needed apps.
- Observe battery drain over the course of the day
The issue was that Google app (not sure which app that is) did not run in background properly hence the high drain.
I was able to get 6 hours of SOT once I reflashed. Here is to hoping 7 hours of SOT with a modified kernel.

Kernel appears well optimized on this device; doubt you will see significant power utilization improvements with custom varients. More likely to score headaches w/o a corresponding benefit.
I'm on my second cycle. Got close to 9 hrs sot on first. Here's my 2nd after useing it for an hour this morning. Even better than my OP5T! I use wifi almost all the time since I don't get any cell bars at home.

Yep - especially if signal is weak/marginal forcing the mobile radio to maintain a higher power level. Same thing can happen on WiFi although have more options to cycle WiFi on/off during screen off operations. In contrast, mobile radio is on 7x24 unless you tell it otherwise.

Ok thanks. I’ll test it out soon on wifi and see what happens.
I saw that the Pixel 5 is about the same form size as the 4a but with the larger battery. Out of curiosity, anyone know if it’s possible to jam that 4,000mah battery inside the 4a? I haven’t seen the internals so don’t know if there’s enough room.

Question Android System Intelligence overheating and battery drain

I've had the Pixel 7 pro since December 2022. Ever since then whenever I had the newest version of Android System Intelligence installed this phone would overheat to the point where touching it got uncomfortable, it would thermal throttle, the pixel launcher would lag and the battery would drain way to quickly. I know that uninstalling the updates for Android System Intelligence from the PlayStore and locking it so it doesn't auto update fixes the problem, but my question is. Is there really nothing I can do about this? Will I really have to keep an older build of Android System Intelligence installed just to properly use my phone?
Try in safe mode as it may be a 3rd party app causing the issue. Try clearing data in that app and any associated apps.
Otherwise...
If you really want to go nuts, factory reset then try the updated version. Might get the same result though.
I don't upgrade or update my N10+; it's still running on the same load from 3 years ago with no issues and almost zero down time.
If it's fulfilling its mission let it be...

I'm thankful version T.10.sysimg.pixel7.477131528 of ASI seems to be stable, but yes if this were the case for all versions I wouldn't have hesitated returning this when I had the chance
Really?
Going to test this out over the next couple days. My device previously used to run pretty cool, even though the weather got hotter, but now I'm never underneath 32°C even when idle, lol.
I'm not sure if this affects everyone. I talked to a friend that also has a pixel 7 pro and according to him he doesn't have this problem.
Yeah, it got to the point where even if I left my phone idle, it would be warm to the touch and hot whenever I started using it, even if all I was doing was texting someone.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.as
Uninstalling the updates makes it stable again, you might have to restart your device for changes to fully take effect though.
Another thing I could mention is, that going into the battery settings and seeing which app uses the most amount of battery it would end up showing the pixel launcher not ASI, having looked online and trying things out myself I figured ASI was the real culprit and not pixel launcher. Basically I think that features like at a glance, which are integrated into the pixel launcher make use of ASI and for some reason newer versions just like using up a lot of performance in the background, resulting in pixel launcher being reported as a huge battery drainer to android when in reality it's ASI

What's the ambient temperature? If it's running warm now a few days won't help unless you track down the cause. If found, boom, the excessive cpu cycles and heat will stop.
Is global power management active? If so try disabling it.
Are any services disabled? Dependencies...
Try temporarily disabling Google play Services and see if that tones it down. Backup Transport, Playstore and Gmail are dependencies.

Pretty much the same usage day by day, but even with the heat being hotter and the A/C being on, that warmth is just there.
I run strictly custom roms currently, so my device is normally pretty barebone on apps nowadays.
I rolled back to a version from March, as April/May is when the heating did start. I'm actually sitting at 29°C right now as I type this, compared to the 33-35 from the first couple minutes of Telegram.
Going to test it out for a few days and see how it manages on the go and whatnot.

Looking at the milliampere usage real time can yield clues. At idle I want to see it sink below 100ma and go to 70ma or lower occasionally couple times a minute. If I see a lot of high spikes or it's averaging in the 3-400's or higher at idle with no apps open, something's up.
A logging firewall can help pin down which app is sucking the juice.
Custom roms are harder to troubleshoot than stock. If you're rooted you have more monitoring and diagnostic tools available though if you use them.

While I completely agree about everything, apparently, ASI turned out to be the culprit... I'm now at 25°C. I haven't been this low since before the April update. Who would've thought it was that simple, lol.
I've previously tried even stock and on my end, I had only Whatsapp with 2 other apps installed, but I still couldn't get under 33°C. The second I downgraded my ASI, my temps dropped. Everything the OP was experiencing has been my experience that I've been explaining here and there on Telegram as well.

Not sure about kernels for thermals, but currently running Sultan's kernel, and I installed the ASI from March 31st(didn't want to be too outdated. Not sure what version comes preinstalled)

I wouldn't worry about it being "outdated".
The only thing that counts is if it runs well, is a joy to use and is fulfilling its mission.
This N10+ is still running on Pie. It's current load is 3yo now, still fast and stable with minimal maintenance. More play time, less down time.
My day yesterday, I didn't go over 37°C while I was out all day surprisingly and the phone never felt warm in hand.
I wonder if it felt warm previously since something was wonky, but now since it seems more settled, it's not as warm but even at the highest temp(35-37), it feels normal to hold.

My day yesterday, I didn't go over 37°C while I was out all day surprisingly and the phone never felt warm in hand.

Likely something you did. Problem is -what- if it reoccurs
Always best if you can find to root cause. For a frequently reoccurring problem a reboot is not the answer even though it may temporarily solve it. Androids should may able to run days, weeks with no reboot or issues.
Once you find it the solution will seems simple... but when the issue is causing high battery drain the pressure is on. That's what took out my first battery, got less then 16 months on it before it failed (and I do mean failed!). You never want a warm idling phone as it is trouble; robs you of performance... and batteries
НIt's 27 degrees outside. The phone heats up to 36-42 degrees on LTE. Cleaned the device and set it up as new a week ago. June firmware, everything is updated

I've had the Pixel 7 pro since December 2022. Ever since then whenever I had the newest version of Android System Intelligence installed this phone would overheat to the point where touching it got uncomfortable, it would thermal throttle, the pixel launcher would lag and the battery would drain way to quickly. I know that uninstalling the updates for Android System Intelligence from the PlayStore and locking it so it doesn't auto update fixes the problem, but my question is. Is there really nothing I can do about this? Will I really have to keep an older build of Android System Intelligence installed just to properly use my phone?

How big is the drain?
The Battery usage shows indeed ASI and Pixel Launcher for almost whole time span (~6h), but the battery drain is respectively 2% and 1%, were 20 minutes of Opera Browser used 19%, so it looks minimal. My phone does not get warm in idle or even in light usage, while the ambient temperature is ~25-26 celsius.

From what it seems this doesn't seem to be affecting everyone, a friend of mine also owns a pixel 7 pro and he told me he doesn't have these problems. On average Pixel Launcher would use about 40% Battery and my phone wouldn't last longer than 6 hours even with barely any usage. I am running stock newest June update and have not rooted this device so I can't for sure say what the cause is other than ASI

During a production run they sometimes substitute smaller chipsets. This can lead to instruction set incompatibilities in the firmware.
Since it only involves a few hundred units tracking down this kind of issue is a ***** and the manufacturer's fault. Samsung is known to do this and they're not the only ones...
