Battery drain
Hi there,
im a proud owner of beautiful edge+ with a massive problem.
My battery goes bye bye in sleep hours 40 to 50%. I sleep 7 hours, my phone is at 75%..when i woke up, it was at 20%... the only thing i have on is the edge timer..power saving on and the not disturb on as well during sleep.
Im a recent guy on android..any help would be appreciated...i really don´t know how or what is draining the battery. It´s stock with google now launcher..pretty basic...
Another thing...why can´t i unnistall the messenger app (fb?)
Thanks in advance.
I also have a standby time drainage on my edge+. I would like to know how to prevent this. I've used package disabled but in the end, it didn't do much for my battery Drain.

If you are not rooted use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ospolice.packagedisablerpro
You can disable whatever you want.
Try to isolate the offending app or service.

Yes, the S6 Edge+ battery definitely drains fast in standby. I have the VZW variant. With my previous phones (Note 2, 3 and 4), the battery would drain about 1% per hour during standby while I was sleeping (w/ Wi-Fi on). My S6 Edge+ seems to drain at a rate of 5% per hour with Wi-Fi on. With Wi-Fi off, then the rate drops to 2%-3% per hour.
I'm amazed/jealous at my wife's iPhone 6 Plus. It literally has no standby battery drain. Go to sleep at 11pm and wake up at 6am...battery still at 100%.
I'm getting about 3.5 - 4 hours of SOT. Overall, my battery life is slightly worse compared to my Note 4. But I still really like the phone.
Not at All..
I also Owned this beautiful device..
5d+ standby and 1 hour Sot and 37% remaining
Not bad near me..

Hey. I recomend u arter97 kernel. It saves battery in deep sleep(7 hours screen off and drained %4 only). I think its better than stock kernel's..
I have battery drain only 5% with wi-fi off. If wi-fi is on than 20% drainage.

It's strange. With my Note 2-4, I had less battery battery drain with wi-fi on.
My egde+ runs about 1% each hour in standby with wifi on.
My phone is just out of the box no other apps installed.
I had the same problem, I installed JuiceDefender, it reduces the battery drainage.
I'm getting no drainage during sleep mode

7% of battery overnight.
Wifi, 3G, google now and side clock on.
Is this normal?
Standby Cell=2% (5h on time)
Android OS =1% (13m cpu)
Standby Device = 1% (4m cpu, 28m active)
I too loose between 5-7% overnight (8 Hours). Although the battery life of Edge+ is pretty good while in use, I have noticed that standby of the device isn't as impressive as earlier Note variants (Yes, I'm comparing with Note series).
WiFi - ON
Auto Sync - ON
2-3 Apps with Notification ON
Samsung Pay on Screen Off - ON

Your CPU seems to be idle 95% of the time! I never checked mine but yes, mine drops that much too! I don't think that's a rare case with this phone!
Ok so it is good right?
Then why it drains so much overnight?
Depinding on my signal strenght ,i saw -10% overnight ,ok maybe i slept like 10 hrs insted of 7-8 but still . Battery info said that the juice went to Cell signal standby or something like that.

yep, same here... so maybe it depends on the strength and quality of cell signal..
will test in the next days...
I am sure it cannot be any samsung app/service as I have disable 200 of them with package disabler pro
also, location/3g/wifi/sync/googlenow always on is the same setup I had on OnePlus One, that was using barely .5% per hour
it also true that on the OnePlusOne I could also turn off the notification light during night, while with this I cannot so it could happen that the light keeps on flashing for 5 hours, draining battery
also, I have edge clock on at night, still some drining...
I thought the deep sleep or idle drain was caused by lollipop, no? I lose over 10% from a 7hr sleep, even if I turn the WiFi off. WiFi eats up a lot of my battery for some reason, and I know my connection was good too.

It's been 5 nights and I confirm it drains 1% per hour.
This is my usage really bad...
8% in 6h
Night clock on
Wi-Fi on
4G on
Sync on
I received 5 emails so notification light has been blinking for almost 5h
Don't understand, cos stats are not that bad...
Think yourself lucky. I'm losing 50% overnight.
Battery life impressive during the day though

I solved my problem: night watch...
With night watch on I lose 1% per hour at night, with night watch off I lose 2% in 6h
I was consistently losing 2%-3% per hour overnight. But once I found an overactive app (Plume) and changed from instant notifications to 30 minute polling, my battery life has drastically improved. I've also used Package Disabler to disable bloatware on my device.
The past couple days my battery has been around 97% - 98% when I wake up in the morning.
Hi Guys,
I have a problem that happens to my OPT over and over again.
At night the battery drain is crazy! i was charging the phone and go to sleep with 100%, and in the next morning it was 91%.
I saw a guide that says to delete the cache of the phone but it was helping but only for a while .
I cant flash a ROM into my OPT cause i still have Manufacturer Warranty.
Please tell me if there is an other solution for this
Thanks,
Afik
Same thing Happened on my phone too..
same here
but thers some battery calibration issue from what i know
so it should not affect your SOT or your use-time
Did you turn on Airplane Mode? If not 9% through a nicht with aprox. 8 hours is pretty damn good. For more advice pls post Screenshots and log of Better Battery Stats.
If you unplugged the phone it's a nice standby drain.
Plugged in??? Faulty cable or charger

A drain of 1,125%/h is pretty good? 9% over 8 hours?
Hi,
It should not be like that especially with this huge battery capacity,during the night i never charge my phone it always stay next to my bad without connected to my charger,and my Airplane Mode is always off.
Only my WiFi is on during the night,it sometimes its drain only 5% and sometimes more than 5%, the last oxygen is sucks the version before was better.....
1-2% per Hour is pretty good. Trust me. If you want to take a deeper look in what causrs your "drain" look into Better Battery Stats and post some screenshots. A bit more Input would be nice too. Which Kernel do you use with which Settings? Xposed or not?
Unplugged state idle drain between 1-2% untouched stock rom is very good.
Also is normal for my phone to sometimes stays longer at 100% once unplugged.
For the long story read this

I changed from Note 3 to s 6 edge plus recently
The battery drops 5% per hour overnight when not in use. If I go to bed with less than 40% battery at night I am sure to wake up with my phone switched off in the morning.
When in use with screen on, the battery drips one percent every two minutes. This is the worst battery life I have ever seen in a phone. I was a long loyal customer of samsung and this is my last samsung phone ever.
Extremely disappointed
Please post your battery stats ? so we can have a better understanding of your problem. I suggest you install 'Doze' which should stop unnecessary apps from connecting to the internet and causing your phone to awake from deep sleep.
Dear Akbar 11
Heres the battery stats....is it normal?
I had the same issue, and as far as I managed to find out, it is a bug in Samsung's kernel. Flashing Arter97 kernel solved the issue for, but do post battery stats from SmartManager. If it says 'Android' or 'Android OS', then you have the same problem many of us do.
I don't think it's a kernel problem. My android OS is very low 4%. Like zoolok said post your battery stats from settings, battery, battery usage
I have the same problem. Battery was great before I flash custom rom. After going back to stock I have big battery draining. I must stay on custom rom. With Audax rom and Skyhigh kernel i have great battery life.
You have either messed up something big or you have an app in the background that is eating up your battery like no tomorrow.
And the reason i say that is because i recently got this battery life on my Galaxy S6 edge+.
And this was taken 2 days ago.
Here i use the CRISSCROSS ROM, AudaxPro Kernel, Greeinify and Samsung's own 'Appoptimizing' feature (same as Doze in Android 6.0).
So my battery life is pretty awesome.
i have problem whit battery lose 25% when i sleep
This is a usual day with s6 edge plus
Any help?

i have this problem battery ... if u fixed it tell me how?
Well I was expecting Google Play Services to be eating your battery (which is quite common) but it looks like your Andriod OS is eating the most battery. I would uninstall Facebook and use the web version it always helps with the ram and battery furthermore, turn off location if you are not using it and check accounts which are being synced. These are the only tips I can give you as I have never seen Android OS drain so much battery.
Since a few days Google Play Store is eating up my battery: I go to sleep with 100% batt and wake up with 50%, if I check batt stats on top I have play store at 45%, with 5h active a d 2h of CPU.
Follows Android system at 5%.
Going crazy why...

You've charged your phone 4 times during that day. I can't see what's the interesting part here.
I've had the phone just a week and if I am using heavy then the battery is pretty good, lasts 4 hours plus. Better than my G5.
However, if I am barely using and only sending the occasional WhatsApp and not much else, then the battery doesn't seem to last as long, for example it drained to 50% today with very little use, only 1 hour of SOT. Wifi and location were on, but Bluetooth off.
I've taken some screenshots of battery stars with gSam. Could someone help me decipher what is causing the drain? Or if this is normal behaviour?
Everyone is saying that this phone has amazing standby battery life because of 7.0, Doze, etc. So I am confused!

Looks like you have something running in The background keeping it from falling into deep sleep which is why. Unfortunately I suck @ troubleshooting these kinds of scenarios. My guess would be a Google service of some type. My brother had a problem with Gmail one time that was draining his battery while the phone was in sleep
At idle, is 4% battery drain per hour normal? I let my new S8 sit over night and the only thing showing consuming battery was idle and cell signal, but it still drained 4% per hour. I have it set for WQHD and aod is on. So far I've been very disappointed with the battery life of my S8 and am considering returning it and going back to my Nexus 5. Is there anything else I can check/do to find why it's draining so fast? Or is 4% idle per hour normal?
I was getting very good standby . Seemed like less than 10% overnight. and
Adding apps that want to update all the time will consume more standby power though. So I'm not getting that anymore.
Aod will take 10% of your total battery charge. Or so they say.
Anyway, you could try with aod disabled and see how that goes.

Howdy,
S8+ here, whatsapp, messenger and typical apps installed here, AOD on.
My standby drain is 1.3%/h. You may want to investigate which app is keeping the device awake / causing wakelocks.
What do you recommend I use to figure out my wake locks?
Also, I'm not rooted so is there anything I can do other than uninstall an app anyway?
You can block their notifications, that will help a bit.
I just did a one hour test and it's 2% on my s8+.
Well you know, if you got many fb contacts and all sorts of messages your battery definitely drains faster.

force doze app did wonders for me

Use GSAM battery monitor to trace your wakelock. For my case, my S8 last time is draining around 3-4%/h with AOD on & now only 0.5-1%/h without AOD.
Believe it or not, my S8 battery standby drain is getting better daily due to app power monitor. Give it a week or more for S8 to learn & setup for your usage behaviour.
I don't use AOD, but if I get more than 4% discharge overnight I would be on the hunt for rogue apps. You do realize at 4% discharge rate per hour your phone will be dead in 24 hours even without you ever using it?

About what I'm getting too. The Device Maintenance app does a great job shutting down battery draining background apps. I routinely get messages that 3-8 apps have been shut down.

Which app is the "Device Maintenance app"?
Installed Greenify and started using force doze and my idle drain is now < 2%.
The device maintenance app is build in. It will kick in after a certain time of idle. You will see it in the notification bar.
As for other apps, they simply stop apps you installed from using battery time.

Did you realize when you total up the battery usage, you cant get 100% of battery charges?
