Most Likely Yes, But Your Usage Is The Largest Factor Discerning Whether a Battery Is Healthy. Install Betterbatterystats And GSAM Battery Monitor To Find Out What is draining your battery and which wakelocks are preventing deep sleep. Check your usage if it seems normal. Then the battery is the problem

poor battery life

hey guys I'm asking if it's only me or I'm having a bad battery life?
I have phoenix v10 installed and googy kernel with battery profile.
When I dont use it and the screen is off the battery last very long but if i start to use it a bit the battery start to drain pretty fast. I also noticed in battery menu that android os and android operative system is draining me 17 and 12 % for a total of 29%..
is this normal?
I will post a screenshot tomorrow of my battery life and a screen of BBS wakelocks.
Fast charging the battery? Bad data cable? Bad battery? Could be anything
"If someone helps, never forget to hit thanks ?"
the battery its good. the cable too. the battery charge it's the default i guess

Yes it's normal.
Your screen uses power. Also 29% is relative of the battery consumed. So If your battery is still at 99%, then android os etc can still have used 29% of that 1%.

Poor batter life

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.

Battery Issues/Not discharging to 0%/terrible life

VS995, Rooted, been running WETA since last January.
------------
About 2 months ago I noticed whenever my phone got to 15% battery left when I plugged it in it would reboot. I ignored the issue for a while because I rarely let it get that low.
Recently though I notice my battery life getting very bad. Insanely bad. Not even 2 hours of SOT, dying in 3 hours just using hotspot with no SOT. Losing 10% in a few minutes of active use sometimes.
So I tried some battery calibration apps, tried recharging to 100% and draining again. Tried wiping battery stats. Tried different ROMS.
I flashed desolation ROM tonight and the battery life seems to be really good on it but it ended up shutting off at 24% left.
Battery apps say my battery is in good health, but I'm wondering if the battery itself is bad? Any tips or advice or help of any kind is appreciated. Thanks

I just wanted to make sure because I've never experienced this issue before. I even hand my smartphones down to my mother and they tend to get over 2 years of use and I've never had to buy new batteries. Thanks for the feedback
If it drops from 24% to 0 then im pretty sure its a damaged battery try it ypu can buy it for less than 20 dollars on ebay
If it drops gradually in standby you could have also a battery drain bug but this is not the case here

Battery life hours full charge

Post your battery life at full charge
24hours 45min, 5hours light, 18hours idle
What is your battery life?
There is a dedicated battery life thread
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s7/how-to/battery-life-discussion-t3316305/page84
Ok thanks I've been on accu battery and it says I get 24hous sleep 5hours with light and 18hours idle I thought there was something up with my battery life so I wanted to know other people's benchmarks. 5 hours didn't seem like much to me...
hello
is it bad?

Battery life and performance?

Do you think, the battery life and performance have degraded after oreo update(maybe may patch)?
Coz mine has surely degraded i need to charge my phone twice a day and games like asphalt 8 is also lagging
Tried factory reset too

Time to use custom roms. stock rom is trash ?
For me, latest May update increased battery life a bit. Here's pics of discharge 100%-20%. I could easily go to 7hrs or even 8hrs but I never let the phone discharge below 20%.
It all depends on usage, but in your case i think you have some wakelock in background that drain your battery, or some power hungry app. Install BBS or Gsam and check what is the cause for huge battery drain. And thing that most people forget to tell is that bad charging will ruin your battery pretty fast I personally never let it below 20% or above 80-85%. So if you let the battery discharge to 0% almost every time your battery will become bad faster. And games will drain battery very fast, you will get around 3hrs of SoT if you play games all the time.

I don't know man, maybe games are causing battery drain coz i play pubg twice a day .... So maybe drain is because pubg and asphalt 8 ?
And people say that charging to 100% from 0% is a good habit coz it calibrates the battery so I'm doing this for like 2-3 days discharging the phone till it gets switched off then charging to 100%
