This might help you out a bit, but considering the screen is a super amoled one it takes less power to produce dark pixels. Try changing your background to a dark image and see if that helps a little bit. Once 5.1.1 is released it will be addressing battery issues most likely.
yeah but I have followed all of the reccomendations, shut down, uninstalled or disabled all that I could.
Only thing that i dont shut down is location as I dont like to have to toggle it back on when I need it. When I first got phone it was draining 8% or so overnight. It has more than doubled
I don't think its google location services causing this drain unless you have no city specified and GPS on and its searching all night
Encountering the same issue on my S6 edge.
I have my location & weather turned off and still, it drains 28% (100% drops to 72%) in 7hrs 33mins overnight usage/standby.
the default Battery Usage shows the following:-
Facebook 7%
GPSD 7% (why is this appearing even if location is off)
Google play service 4%
Android OS 4%
Google App 2%
remaining are 1% on screen & cell standby.
Appreciate if anyone could guide me through or refer me to any links that I might have overlooked.
I've being trying different setting from turning off the GPS, edge screen night clock every night & i noticed only a 3% overnight last saturday. I thought it was resolved, but today,it starts acting up again without changes on my setting.
My apps remains as usual
Shall I restart my phone & continue monitoring?
Is this an issue that I've to wait until a new fixes is released?
