    My battery life has become quite suckish lately!

    lol. Well it's not a very smart phone that hammers the battery looking for a signal during the hours while I'm asleep. lol Samsung S7 Edge RSRP -111dB RSRQ -9dB Nexus 4 RSSI -110dB

    My battery life has become quite suckish lately!

    But in the list the top user of the battery was cell standby and no apps were using significant battery. Therefore your guess isn't really a meaningful one.

    My battery life has become quite suckish lately!

    I haven't doctored anything about that screen capture and we've seen what Samsung's quality control is like recently that even after a recall and some major adjustments, one of their phones is so bad they're having to cancel it altogether and issue refunds, so your can keep your snide remarks to...

    Old Information about the Note 7 Recall

    Skelp Strong words from Eric Schiffer, a brand strategy expert at Reputation Management Consultants: "If the Note 7 is allowed to continue it could lead to the single greatest act of brand self-destruction in the history of modern technology. Samsung needs to take a giant write-down and cast...

    Nexus 9 install

    Hi, How long should it take to install Android 7? My tablet has been sitting on the screen with the 4 colourful icons, the one's that should eventually morph into the word 'Android', for about 20 minutes.

    Lockscreen clock

    How do they make these themes? They must use some app to alter the lockscreen. I want to move the clock from it's current position but have no idea how to do it and I don't want someone else's theme.

    Change lock screen clock size?

    My S7 Edge doesn't have clock size options.

    I broke my Samsung S7 edge after 4 days from purchase!

    I let slip my iPad retina about 5 inches into the leg of my PC chair and cracked the glass.

    If you're as clumsy as your iPhone mishaps suggest there might be something wrong with you and you shouldn't let Apple keep the doctor away!

    My battery life has become quite suckish lately!

    My phone developed a similar issue. CellStandby suddenly topped the battery usage list and the phone would average 25% battery usage while I slept. I don't accept that a weak signal is to blame because I still have my Nexus 4,, it's nearly 4 years old, it's on the same deal with the same...

    Horrible battery drain

    If I only had this phone then perhaps that would be the issue however I have my near 4 year old Nexus 4 and it's on the exact same deal with the same carrier here in the UK, EE. They both sit on the same desk in my house and by my bed at night. When the S7 Edge has to go through this (100%...

    Horrible battery drain

    Been on live chat with Samsung support and they advised me to try a couple of things. I'd already cleaned the cache which made no difference then they suggested putting the phone in safe mode for 24 hours and see if the battery drain was the same or not. The battery drained the same amount so...

    Horrible battery drain

    OK, final summary. In the time it's taken a 4 year old Nexus 4 to go from 100% to 1% the S7 Edge, which is on the same deal with the same carrier, has done this battery wise - S7 Edge - 100% > 50% > 96% > 7% > 100% > 8% Nexus 4 - 100% > 1% The only usage the S7 Edge had in that time was...

    Horrible battery drain

    I had horrible drain in the first couple of weeks then it performed like a champ for about 6 weeks and now it's back to what it was like in the first couple of weeks. I have no idea why except cellstandby takes number 1 spot.
