    Has anybody actually gotten rid of some of the Android/Lollipop/Battery drain issues with a new S6?

    thanks Erasat! - If the camera use is reflected in the Android OS, then that's probably it...I took probably 80+ pics and a few very short vids yesterday. The picture quality is amazing by the way.

    Has anybody actually gotten rid of some of the Android/Lollipop/Battery drain issues with a new S6?

    I actually have Location and Bluetooth turned off (as per your earlier suggestions). Not sure where that high number came from, but not seeing it today. I was taking a lot of pictures yesterday - would the camera use be reflected in the Android OS percentage? That's the only thing that was...

    Has anybody actually gotten rid of some of the Android/Lollipop/Battery drain issues with a new S6?

    Nope...am on Verizon. should say that this was with 12% battery left. One of the "problems" with reading these forums is (apart from getting awesome help, of course), that one always starts doubting whether there is something wrong with one's own device if one doesn't get 6 hours SOT :-) so I...

    Has anybody actually gotten rid of some of the Android/Lollipop/Battery drain issues with a new S6?

    Quick question - I'm one of the folks that is affected by whatever causes the battery drain, bad stand-by timing. Loving the phone, (especially the camera...outstanding!), wondering whether it would make sense to replace it and see whether there is a chance that the new phone doesn't have the...

    Samsung Galaxy S6 What exactly is Cell Standby in battery usage stats?

    Re: What exactly is Cell Standby in battery usage stats? yeah...rather a weird thing to say, coming from a Samsung Tech Support...I guess if you can wait it out, it'll probably get fixed at some point sooner than later...not sure whether I'll be hanging in or returning it and just getting it...

    Re: What exactly is Cell Standby in battery usage stats? well - that's bizarre - my previous post must have been deleted, maybe because I relayed some information that came directly from Samsung that wasn't too positive. Anyways - let's try this again maybe in a more neutral way?...Steveksi -...

    How to delete a voice navigation file

    Hi folks - love my Verizon S6 (white)...one quick question which might be more of an app question than an S6 one, but I'm sure some folks on here might know the answer..can't find it online. I use Here Drive for Navigation. It had a UK low quality voice by default. I downloaded the US Male...
