Is it just me or is battery life worse on nougat?
Did you do a factory reset after updating?
Back up your data and do it. Use the Recovery Mode (Phone off -> Hold power / Vol Up and Home Key) and wipe Cache/Factory Reset.
If possible install everything fresh and don't use backups (except for messages etc of course). Especially on an Exynos model of the S7 Nougat's battery life should roughly equal or be better than Marshmallows, Snapdragon also, but since i don`t live in the US, i can't verify, since the majority of my friends and myself use the Exynos version.
Also check your apps for wakelocks and the like. Disable/uninstall apps not needed (for example if you don`t use Samsung VR/Gear, deactivate it. It will help improving battery life).
Other than that, enjoy nougat
I did a fresh install and battery life is horrible.
I am facing this too on the exynos variant after updating to Nougat via OTA. BTW what does formatting have to do with fast discharge after update? I mean it shouldn't make any difference.
try changing mode
is it possible that you might be constantly in high performance mode?
as it increases screen resolution and backlight , might be the cause of battery drain.
I've gone up from 5 to 5.5 hours SOT on MM, to 6 to 6.5 SOT on N. Should definitely be better.
Make sure you turn off all the junk like smart stay and gesture sensor crap.
I feel nougat battery life is better either.

My battery life is a JOKE after the upgrade (via ODIN) to Nougat. I did flash HOME_CSC to keep all my data. I've disabled all the extra settings, knocked the resolution down to 1920x1080 and made sure it's on optimized performance. I've also put every non-essential app to sleep mode. I do use my phone more than average, but I haven't gotten a whole day's battery yet. It also is back to burning 5-10% overnight night on cell standby that it wasn't doing with 6.0.1!!
I love the look and feel, but this isn't worth it for me. I use TrueCaller, so I don't need the advanced call blocking. I use Nova Launcher, so there's that. I haven't found another major advantage yet to outweigh the bogus battery life.
I'm going to wipe the whole phone and restore only text messages and see how that goes this weekend. :crying:
try reseting all app permissions by going to :
settings> applications> click on the 3 dots on top right> click reset app preferences.
now restart ur fone and enjoy the awesomness of nougat !
*please not that this trick will only benefit people who are having high android os or system drain by default ( or since the install of nougat), which could be caused by nougat new permissions conflicting MM.
Battery life idle drain had increased for me in nougat. Now get 4.5 hrs earlier never got below 5hrs sot.

WOW I just can't believe how bad battery life is on Nougat. It has similar battery life with AOSP based ROMs that are early in their development. I was hoping that either the reports are not true but not only they are true but I wish I could show everybody how bad it is. I will flash Marshmallow back and stay there until this mess gets fixed. This is seriously scary, I can't believe they released the firmware at this state. Even more I hope they will eventually bother to fix it because something tells me they won't.
How bad it is for you? For me its bretty good. Today i put my phone to charge on 1% battery left. Before that i look battery usage. 49h online and 5h31min sot. I only use 4g not wifi

I have atleast 6-8% draw per hour with it being in my pocket without any radios on or doing anything at all. This is a disaster. I flashed back MM and Ithink I'm gonna stay here. TBH I didn't like the changes in Nougat. I thought I would but I didn't. There are alot of stuff that make no sense to me but having a terrible battery life on top of that it's a deal breaker.
EDIT: Oh did I mention that this draw is with PSM on? Without it it's even worse!
Also I feel that PSM on Nougat is inferior to MM. It makes no sense.
Even worse is UPSM, the MM equivalent was better.
Ugh, I just really wanted to like Nougat but I'm so dissapointed.
Hi, I have G930T US t mobile variant of gs7, t mobile is pushing update cant turn it off. Last time when i had PG1 update battery life was awesome! at least 2 days of normal usage, after PK1 update phone was getting hot and battery became lasting for only 1 day! It is loosing power when i am not touching the phone average 5 persent in standby. So i am hoping after nougat my 2 day happiness of battery life comes back.....
Back on MM and battery life is day and night difference. It can't be on my mind. Went for jogging for a bit over an hour with music playing and it just went 1% down.
G930T. Yesterday updated to Nougat, after PK1 Nougat defenately wins in battery life. Phone is not getting hot, stable battery. After update battery was 70% so i got 23 hours of normal usage calls texting facebook + AOD with 70% battery. Perfect!
I am terribly disappointed at nougat. The battery drain at MM was 1 procent during 5 hours (!!!) with some tweaks but nougat is totaly crap.
I have 2 procent every hour with nougat at standby and after I have deleted a lot of bloat.
But I have a problem. When I go back to marshmallow by flashing via ODIN I cannot hear sound during calls. Why?
Also having battery issues since the Android OS update. My battery usage indicates 'Android System: 21%' and 'Android OS: 15%' which seems abnormally high. Have tried the 'reset app permission' solution that has been suggested and see how it goes.
This is very disappointing as I just got my S7 and had been enjoying great battery life until the Android OS update. Is there a consensus on a solution/any indication from Samsung as to a fix?
Thanks.
If you have battery issues try to disable Chrome and use the Samsung browser or Opera Mini or pretty much any other browser. Chrome is a battery waster of gargantuan proportions under Nougat for me. Only using another browser wasn't enough for me, I had to disable it in the settings.
Thanks. Actually Chrome hasn't been giving me problems. It seems that the 'reset app permissions' trick worked (OS and System items in battery usage window are back down to 2-4% which is as it was).
Thanks for help.
So I want to know if you all have similar experiences..
I have Galaxy S9+ 128 GB Exynos Version - ALL STOCK
The screen on continuous use battery consumption is very good... it drains 13.5-14.5% per hour at max with location, 4G on.... Which means it can get to around 7 Hrs of Screen-on time easily.... even more if we use low powered media apps like youtube, netflix etc....
However, the screen off battery drain is relatively high...
A standard day has around 10-12 hours of standby time when you are out and moving with 4G on all the time and 1-2 hours of music... and in that time the might drain up to 35%+.... Limiting the screen-on time to around 4:30 hours... The deep sleep percentage of the total screen off time is around 65% which is no so great....
This is without using Power saving modes...
So the battery life gets around 7/10 for me.... It is good enough and for 90% of the days it will last the full day.... just not as comfortably as I might have hoped..
On my Galaxy S6 I used apps like Forcedoze, turned off sync, location, 4G, haptic feedback, unused apps, and I could squeeze livable battery life out of it... I am sure that if I did the same with the S9 the phone would have 2 day battery life.... but the out of the box battery life of the phone is average...
So I recommend turning off 4G when not in use and use Power saving mode once you hit 35%.... this way you can easily get through the longest days on a single charge....
The phone needs improvement to its stand by time....

I think that a lot has been said about this topic, and in the end, the user is the only one to blame for the battery life, because there are a lot of things that can impact battery: location, apps, usage, signal, etc.
Is hard to do an objective and good analysis of battery life, because each user will put their own subjective thoughts. For me battery can be great, and for others can be awful.
Is true that 4G will consume more battery, but only if you are in an area when signal is weak, otherwise, in most cases it will have the same drain or even less, because with faster speed, the modem works less and the impact is less as well in battery.
Power saving mode is going to save you some juice in case you cap all the options to the minimum, but honestly, who wants to run an S9+ with an HD resolution?, and the brightness and CPU cap don't give you much more battery either, and I found it stops the sync of some apps, but not others.
I think that the only real way to improve your battery is to properly configure your device, set the proper permissions for every setting and app, and then use the "Energy Monitor" built in app to let which apps can be running in background and which don't. Doing this will improve battery by miles.

The whole thing has to be intuitive though... having to tweak 200 settings in the phone to get better experience is not part of the experience... experience is the stock default usage with some minimal tweaking... This is the reliable battery life I can get without breaking any service in the phone because I might have to analyze the effects of every option I change or turn off..

Is partially true what you say: if you get a Samsung, is because you know you will have all those options and most probably you will have to make the proper changes. We all know that Samsung phones usually offer ton of features and options, but if you don't configure them, probably they will mess a little the battery because most of them will come enabled and will have an impact in battery life.
On the other hand, if you want just the basics and a simple experience, you should stick with Android stock or closer.
Is like buying a Ferrari, but then complain about fuel consumption.

Here is the link: https://www.samsung.com/us/smartphones/galaxy-s9/specs/
Now with that said, I think Samsung puts an unrealistic expectation on the battery and continues to misinform users with fake data. They should be a bit more realistic, really, 20 hours of Video Playback? They forget to tell you that is more than likely at the lowest resolution, with the screen brightness turned all the way down, with the device in airplane mode.
I don't think this phone will get anywhere near those battery hours. I also think we should expect at least 1 full day of HEAVY use. This is a flagship phone.
Now... All said and done... I get decent battery life, I cant complain. However, I do think it should get better battery life. This cost as much as my Dell Gaming Laptop.

Well, car manufacturers do the same when they advertised they cars to give 5L/100Km, but we all know that in order to achieve those, you should drive in very specific conditions. The same applies here as well.
And yes, I also have great battery life in my S9+ and I can't complain at all.

These numbers are lab tests under controlled conditions... by no way they represent real life usage...
My S9+ has had an appalling battery life and i have no clue what to do about it.
Apologies for the second post. It was done by mistake and now i can't remove it ...
What is really bad is the network reception.
Most time of the day I have bad or almost no coverage.
No matter what phone I had had they all had average battery life.
So for anyone who has bad battery life take a look at this.
But this is just one cause.
I've got my S9+ for about a week now. Snapdragon version with dual SIM.
So far I finding the battery life a little disappointing. Using betterbatterylife with the ADB commands I getting around 4,5 ~ 5 % / h of very light use (essentially stand by).
I've turned everything off, from Google Assistant to bixby to others Samsung services and still I think it's drainibg too fast.

Can't agree more. Samsung has been consistently misinformative about battery endurance data since the first gen Galaxy S I9000 . "S" series never had good batterylife anyways.(keeping sweet Exynos S7 Edge aside when new).
So 2 weeks with the phone. I absolutely love it, except for this huge problem. Is this normal??:
- It gets very overheated quickly, specially with camera or videocalls.
- Battery life is the worst one I have ever experienced. It will go from 100% to 15% in around 8h with 2,5h SOT. It's insane. Exact same setup with pixel 2 XL, lasts double
Do you think might be a damaged device? I tried ofc clean flash. Both Android 9 and 10 beta. Same issue...
Thank you
I've been having pretty bad battery life myself. Average of 3 to 3.5hrs SoT. Usually need a pick up charge during the day before bed.
Really annoyed cuz I love this phone. I've been trying out OnePlus 7 Pro and S10+. Don't like Samsung, used to love them, but I just hate that UI and their apps they push on you. OnePlus is amazing in terms of everything but the camera, and that is a big thing for me. OnePlus 7 Pro has been really great in performance, battery, everything, but the camera which is pretty mediocre.
I'm returning my OP7 Pro and going back to my Pixel 3. While I love the speed and smoothness of the 7 Pro, the camera is really bad. Too bad to compromise. Returning it and going back to my pixel 3 which also suffers crappy battery, but the camera is still the best
Yeah the battery life is mediocre, you would think they would have added some kernel profiling for such. Pubg eats battery when I play it and it gets so hot it's rather concerning. But on the plus side, it makes my wife put her phone down when she's riding on empty.
I might not be a power user but I get solid 5h SOT with DP3. Sometimes I can reach 6h SOT.
Standy by is around 14-16h, so it last a day.
As I am using DP3, I dont have any custom kernel not even root.
Signal at home sucks, I use wifi. But leaving home gives me the same result. If I stay in a place with good signal I can get even more.
Exactly the same issues I'm having. Overheating might usage and battery drain is horrendous.
Used the s10e with the same issues unfortunately. So went back to the pixel 3 knowing these compromises.
I think you may have a wakelock issue or a bad battery. I am running q beta 3 and still am at ~50 % after 11 hours

Do you think the pixel 3 is a good value phone today ?
I can have pixel 3 black in 128go for 400 € so I'm hesitating .....
Did the lasts updates improved battery life ?
Or it is more efficient to change the kernel to improve battery life ?
Thanks for your advices ?
Well after some days I have to say battery improved. It's not dramatic now but still being very weak. I changed location so maybe it's related to signal
For me now the dramatic point is the heating. There must be a bug or something, when you use front camera. It gets extremely hot. Videocalls are totally awful then

I think the phone is great in all other aspects. I am currently on Android Q beta 3 and the issues are the same from the time of purchase last October.
Regarding using custom kernels, I'm not into unlocking my phones and rooting nowadays so can't help you in that.
However if you are not into heavy gaming or editing, I've heard the 3a lineup performs better in regards to battery life. Might want to check them out before you decide.
I've been with beta for a while. Battery sucks but no overheating. This is the same with the official pie firmware.
I just got used to this and to be honest this happens with previous pixels.
It's an Android feature ?
I'm loving the size, camera and future navigation gesture.
I upgraded from my SD S10 to Note 20 Ultra Dual Sim Exynos couple weeks ago and Im getting dismal battery performance with about 2h35 to 3h15 of SoT, and I noticed the standby drain is pretty bad.
Before judging me: Yes I am fully aware of the whole Exynos 990 v Snapdragon thing, but because I couldnt get my hand on a dual sim N20U with SD so I settled with the exynos version, which I have seen people claiming getting about 5 hours of SoT vs. over 6 hours of SoT on the SD, and I would totally happy with 5 hr considering my usage. But barely getting over 3 hours of SoT is just plain stupid considering the price I paid for it.
I love everything else on the N20U, but having to carry around a power bank all the time is really annoying. Is anyone experiencing the same issue and any luck on fixing this? I am not sure if it is a software issue.
P/S: I attached a couple of screenshots for Battery Usage and Gsam Battery report. I did just reset my phone yesterday to see if the performance improves, no luck. I also did all the battery optimization settings + limit all background usage on all unnecessary app, including facebook and other social media apps..
I have the same phone, and i have the same problems... 2-3 Sot maximum. And i hate it.
If i turn off adaptive screen, turn down to minimal resolution and turn on battery saving only the standby drain gets better. The sot stays the same.
Every unnecessary app is in deep sleep, so nothing much more that I can do.
But if you find something out for a solution please share.
Until then I have to carry a powerbank also.
I considered to sell it and buy a pixel 5 , but the Note20U price dropped brutally, so it would be a waste to sell it.
Stay strong !

I dont know how are people claiming 5 hours of SoT for the Exynos version. I realized most of the claims were made back when it was running One UI 2.5. Not much reviews on battery life on One UI 3 so I am thinking it is software-related. Waiting for samsung to release 3.1 for N20U.
I use the phone to take notes a lot since I am on the go most of the time. I also do some recreational video editing on the phone and it is serving me well. It is unfortunate that the battery is performing like ****
Main is remaining for more than 10 hours of SOT without playing games, 7 to 8 hours while heavy gaming

Yes it's Exynos android 11 UI3, most of the time on power saving mode, usual settings nothing new screen always 60hrz, window animation .5, apps not in regulars use always on sleeping mode, stop Sync but need apps, stop receiving notification but for used apps, using ad block, standard display mode, wifi throttling, multicore packet schedule and other option can reduce battery consumption
Stop using third party apps speacialy for system tweaks after that use battery calibration to get the best battery consumption, screen shot taken just now
4g owners, is there solution for root android 11?
Anyone done?
After a month of using the note 20 ultra 4G exynos 990, I decided to swap it for a 5G snapdragon 865+ version. Got a good deal for trading in my 4G so I pulled the trigger.
Same exact app setup and usage, minimal battery saving tweaking => I managed to get 5+ hours of SoT right out of the bat! One UI 3.0. That's a whole 2 extra hours of SoT on the first day of usage and I believe it's gonna get better over time.
Hello.
I installed Accubattery some days ago to check my S22 Ultra (snapdragon) performance.
Since a few updates ago, It is not even reaching 5h SOT with 22h total combined use.
Everything on my phone is stock. Nothing done about "optimiziation". It doesn't make any sense to buy a flagship and use it as an entry-level phone.
My settings are:
- Mostly on Wifi
- FHD+ with 50% brightness and adaptve refresh rate
- No bluetooth or NFC
- No AOD
- Most notifications allowed
- No battery saving mode
Mostly use it for browing, social media and youtube.
Camera app is a battery draining beast when used.
To my surprise, the app shows my phone is around 4400mA of battery, and discharging performance is as follows. Has anyone ever used it?
All Samsung's should be optimized. 50% brightness is too high for indoor use; use manual brightness control and stay in the 30-40% range when possible. Cloud crap uses a lot of power in the background, Google backup Transport is a prime offender. 4G is more efficient for light bandwidth; make sure it's using 5G only for large data transfer bursts. If the download site is throttling data than 5G burning battery for nothing.
With 4400 mAh my N10+'s easily get 13 hours... and in actual usage they're only a fraction of second slower for most tasks.
I'm not pleased with Samsung today. No expandable storage makes you depended on cloud and/or external storage. A profound loss of balance and core functionality because of poor design. In part because Google scoped storage. I run on Pie and Q still. No 5G, variable refresh rate and the camera is less processor intensive.
That doesn't mean though that you can't improve your SOT dramatically.
This N10+ N975U/Pie I'm holding use to be a hot running hog, it's SOT was similar to yours... it sucked.
This is what it's doing today on a appropriately 3400 mAh derated battery that's nearing the end of its service life. A completely different animal and all modifications were done with a stock platform.
Until you put some serious effort into optimizing it you'll never know what it's full potential is...
You've only use the app for 7 charges. It's not enough data. Come back in a month to see where your battery health stands !

The Google Android bucket concept is a mess. Leave it on for 2 months and it still sucks. The results will be vastly inferior to one that was hand optimized. Google Android isn't that smart.
Manipulate the bucket states as much you like and on a fast phone you'll notice nothing. I played with it for months. It may work on Pixels but Samsung's are a much different animal.
If you actually tone down a hog you'll notice it within a day or less. Its going to take more insight than just flipping on global power management though.
I also have a SD s22 ultra (908e). I was getting terrible battery life. Get adb control app for PC and debloat everything you don't use ( i used uninstall option) I went from a shocking 4.5-5.5 hours sot to a consistent everyday 8-9hrs sot also make sure you put all apps that you don't need notifications instantly for in deep sleep manually.

In individual app settings disabling background data and battery activity doesn't invoke global power management.
Close out apps when done with them as some apps like Brave will continue to run in the background and can use a considerable amount of battery over the course of a day. Camera is another one to watch.
Use Device Care>storage>clean now as needed. The older 360 degree version worked better but should be firewall blocked if used.
Clear system cache; in general reboots do nothing that can't be done with the system booted other than the former. Needless reboots waste power.

Hey mate, may I ask which apps did you uninstall with ADB? I am worried to do stuff by my own because I'm not that knowledgeable when it comes to this stuff, and I don't wanna end up with a brick instead of a smartphone. I would be really grateful if you would respond Thanks!
Also, it looks like you only had 7 sessions of charge and that too the phone wasn't charged to 100%. Charge it to 100% a few times and you will get a better estimate of your battery health. 4400mah seems too low.
Maybe 6ish hours on 5g with WQHD and Adaptive motion really aint that bad.
Why does accbattery estimate the battery size at 4885. Thought s22u had 5000mah battery?

By usage. You can manually set it to 5002 mAh if you want. How accurate the absolute estimates are is unknown. However serve over time as a reference point.
