    Just upgraded from S7 to S21

    Thanks for everyone's replies, aside from 11B1P's comment which was a bit rude. Mustang7757, I bought the phone through AT&T and uploaded the pictures you asked about. I've already turned the motion smoothness down from adaptive to standard just in case, but should I leave it on adaptive to get...

    Just upgraded from S7 to S21

    Hey everyone! I just upgraded my phone from the S7 to the S21 base model (128GB). My S7 battery was really dying quickly so I didn't have much choice. I've never been one to need much from my phone (few pics stored, few apps, etc.) but it's very important for me to make sure this battery doesn't...

    Bump again, hoping for responses based off my latest post from 9/3 after doing your suggested safe mode idea? Thanks!

    Battery dying quicker on my Samsung Galaxy S7?

    Hey guys! Sorry for the late reply but I just tried safe mode over the past 24 hours. My phone was at 99% at 3:30 PM yesterday when I put it into safe mode. I went to bed at 11 PM and it was at 65%. It got down to 30% at 3:30 PM today when I turned it off. So in 24 hours, it went down about 70%...

    Difference between "fast charging" and "cable charging"?

    Whenever I plug my phone in, sometimes it will trigger between charging at the option of "fast charging" (which obviously is much faster) or "cable charging" which lately almost drains my battery or charges at a very low rate of speed. Why does it toggle between these two options and what else...

    Battery dying quicker on my Samsung Galaxy S7?

    I'm confused though, how can you look at a battery statistics screen while in safe mode? I was told in safe mode all you can do is limited functions like use the phone and message? And I already provided a battery statistics screen on page 1 while I'm not in safe mode, does that not help...

    Battery dying quicker on my Samsung Galaxy S7?

    Thanks, makes sense. But wait, I'm confused on your last line. Are you saying to do that while I'm in safe mode? Because I thought I was told when I try safe mode to not do anything except notice if the battery drains the same or not? Or do you mean not in safe mode? Because if not in safe...

    Battery dying quicker on my Samsung Galaxy S7?

    Thanks! Yeah, I understand that. But what I'm saying is, if my phone doesn't seem to drain as much when I'm not using it compared to when I am using it, doesn't that already mean that it is the apps causing the problems? And do I even need to go into safe mode? Just wondering if running safe...

    Battery dying quicker on my Samsung Galaxy S7?

    Ok thanks! Another question before I try safe mode like recommended....is it worth noting that my phone usually doesn't seem to drain battery as quickly when I'm not using it? It seems to be only a lot more when I'm obviously using it and on apps, etc. But when I'm not, it doesn't seem to have...

    Battery dying quicker on my Samsung Galaxy S7?

    Ok thanks guys! So basically do the steps in the link on post 5 for going into safe mode and then just see if my battery drains the same way as always? That's all I need to do? Nothing else and just report back here? What if it's too close to call on whether it's the same or not drainage wise...

    Battery dying quicker on my Samsung Galaxy S7?

    Thanks for the reply! To do safe mode would that be to just do what B Diddy said in post 5 when he referred me to the T-Mobile external site? But I'm not even sure what to do in safe mode once it pulls up or what I'm even looking for to solve my issue?
