    Android System Battery Drain Absurd!

    I'll attach some screenshots, to highlight the issue... The "unaccounted" category is back, and it's leading with a vengeance... Here is captured a rare case where the screen was off for half an hour. GSam showing 100% App Usage? Like what does that even mean? Where does screen even get...

    Android System Battery Drain Absurd!

    OK, until now, while the battery usage ratio was confusing, the overall battery life was good. Now, suddenly, I'm getting like 7 hours. Like WTF? And the usage ratios didn't even change, to get to this point. I don't know what I should do at this point, it's like I have to charge my phone all...

    s7 Edge Battery Questions?

    Sadly, after a very short time without my SD card, it became obvious, that this is not the answer. GSam still blames: - 32.6% on Android System - 28.4% on Kernel and only - 16.0% on Screen SystemPanel2 on the other hand says: - 25.0% on Android System - 19.3% on Logging Daemon - 14.6% on...

    s7 Edge Battery Questions?

    I DO have an SD card installed. A Kingston 128GB 45MB/s. I use it for large file storage and backups. It's not essential, I wouldn't even notice it's absence unless I go about installing new apps or updating old ones. (Because I auto backup up to 5 old versions of apps in case they get worse...

    Nougat battery drain awful - need help

    Well maybe that's a good thing, because I assume someone at the company is responsible for them. Perhaps you should turn to them with the problem? But from your screenshots it seems Android System is only consuming 5%? If so, it's not the same problem. Regardless, complain to the company...

    s7 Edge Battery Questions?

    Your stats look normal. I would LOVE to have stats like that! Unfortunately I can not get Android System off the top of the list. Also, that's some amazing battery life you have! 2 days? Wow. Do you have Wi-Fi and/or Mobile Data enabled at all? I mean in the screenshot Wi-Fi is ON, but...

    Nougat battery drain awful - need help

    Well, we haven't even solved the S7 problem, altho yours sounds even worse. You should definitely install Gsam and perhaps Systempanel2, and use ADB to enable them to monitor this usage. Maybe then you can pinpoint what the cause is, altho it sounds as if "Android System" is the main culprit...

    s7 Edge Battery Questions?

    Yes, I experienced this with my S3. The more I updated it, the worse it got. In the end the camera needed 7 seconds just to open! I solved that by flashing a custom ROM. MY SGS7E has a similar fate awaiting it in the very near future.

    s7 Edge Battery Questions?

    It's pretty much the other way around. We don't live in the age of "memory effect" anymore. (Well, we never actually did)... The sooner you charge, the better. Also, don't leave it attached to charger, after it's full. Constantly topping it off, to keep it at 100% is also not good. Samsung...

    s7 Edge Battery Questions?

    Well in the settings somewhere (Battery, Advanced, Notifications), you can set the battery warning to 50, 40 or 30%... I have all of them enabled, and get a notification when the battery drops that far.

    s7 Edge Battery Questions?

    That's true and all, but when I'm testing, I do let it go as low as I need. It's the "regularly" part that does the damage. Just once wouldn't do anything bad... EDIT: For a while I used a piece of software to warn me when battery dropped to 30% or reached 80% during charging - I was only...

    Android System Battery Drain Absurd!

    Unfortunately, one day after disabling the Briefing app, "Android System" access attempts still look practically the same.... Why on Earth would Android System services need to be contacting these websites, none of which I ever even use? If a website on that list has its own app, I've...

    s7 Edge Battery Questions?

    What I wouldn't give to have percentages like that on my phone... That's what these stats should look like on a normal phone! Unfortunately, mine are disastrous. In order to see something like in your pictures, I have to look at a Samsung Galaxy S6's Battery Stats. However, your example shows...
