Anyone??

weird, you didnt have the phone off, its weird though, maybe try a hard reset if it shows again...

I did the other night full reset and its on 48% and says 4h and. 48m. So confused

Since it's brand new I would cycle the battery a couple of times - let it run down to empty and recharge to full.

s8's learn your battery usage over the first week or so. your battery life will improve.

Battery dropped 20% overnight. How can I find out what's causing it without rooting?

Nothing in the battery stats is abnormal and the phone didn't wake up a lot yet I lost a ton of battery overnight. How do I find what caused it? Also is their anyway to tell if I have a defective battery? A lot of people here and at /r/motox seem to be getting better battery life. I can barely get 3 hours of sot over 10 or so hours. I really want to keep this phone but if this is going to be normal then I might as well go back to the Note 4.

Install System Panel and let it log the data for some time. I have the paid version, but I think the free version is similar.

Phone not sleeping/entering doze. Crazy standby drain.

Hi all, my exynos variant of s7e is experiencing crazily high standby drain. I don't remember seeing this kind of drain during the first few weeks of getting the phone.

I did a test to show, phone unplugged at 100%, left on table without using. ~12hrs later. whopping 60% gone. It's only the 3 processes you see, nothing more.
Anyone have the same problem? Any idea how to find the cause? Used to have great battery life. It's not normal right?
Have a look at these threads (which have been right under your nose in Q & A )

Post your battery life!!!
Mine was doing that also, so I did a factory reset and I didn't use smart switch to add my apps and stuff. Its been sleeping beauty since. I know its a pain to reset, but was worth it.

Battery all of a sudden is totally garbage

Not a month ago I was getting 5+ hours of screen time a day with room to spare and I would go to bed with 15-20% battery left. Now I can't even make it the day and struggle to get 3 hours, just tonight I went from 11% to 2% in a matter of minutes. It looks like the Android system is sucking up all kinds of battery, I've been using Gsam Monitor since May:

What gives? I have all my bloatware disabled, I have no clue what's going on. Reboots do nothing.
I think a factory reset may solve your issue. It never happened to me since no rom has been in my phone more than a month

Phone charging all weird

I can't tray explain it but whenever my phone is really low on battery (let's say 10 percent) it doesn't seem to discharge it just stays at 10% forever, that's at least what Android thinks (pic included)
And then after plugging it in it charges really really fast, probably a percent of charge every second or so until it reaches about 20%
Could it be that my battery is dying? Software issue maybe? Having really bad battery screen on times as well.

Hello,
Try recalibrating the battery.
For example, with the following app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.vitula.batterycalibration

Click to collapse
Which version?, how is your signal strength?, also drains in plane mode?
