No I have been making any calls at all really! It's always this way for some reason. I'm not sure why the phone radio uses so much battery. The wifi shouldn't be using any either since I don't use WiFi. Okay Ill have to try safe mode at some point I guess. (need to use the phone today so...

Hey, I think I've done this correct. I've attached all the screenshots below. Just in case it is mentioned, yes LINE is using up a lot of battery in these screenshots but I had battery problems before I was using LINE as I've only been using it a few days. However it's the Android system that...

Hey everyone, I've been having problems with my battery life on my S6 anyway for some time now.. I factory reset it once before but the battery is still running down at a ridiculous speed. Not sure if it's because I run apps that are battery hungry, or just because there's something wrong with...

I've never really had a good battery life since I got the thing, but I don't know if this is a problem with the phone or Lollipop..

I've also had my phone since launch and I've not had any issues with lag as such, but the battery life leaves a lot to be desired. Dunno if it's a Lollipop thing still or if it's some other reason. Only manage to get 3 and a half hours screen on time lately. Usually charge it at night and after...

It already is on, and I tried a different cable too. The only other option is a factory reset and I'm not sure that'll work considering the amount of complaints there have been regarding it.

Yeah but that's the maximum I've EVER got, and I mean my average is about 3 and a half hours.. but yeah, the other issues are kind of annoying too.

Hey there, I'm wondering if there may be a problem with my Samsung Galaxy S6 and I wanted to get some opinions before I try one last thing and fully reset it. I've had the phone since April last year and for some reason the battery life has never really been good anyway. This isn't the main...

How many charge cycles would I need to have given it? I'm on like the 9th or 10th charge or more and figured it would have settled by now. At the moment I'm on 82% with only 50 mins of screen on time. The most screen time i can get is around 3-4 hrs max :/

That's not entirely true. I'm from the UK and having issues with screen on time. If it's a lollipop bug then I can accept that but I haven't owned another android phone for years so I didn't know lollipop was part of the problem. After charging fully and then leaving my phone unplugged from 5am...

I could be wrong but I think my phone is settling a bit now and I feel like I'm starting to see slightly better stats (could be just me being hopeful though). Am gonna remain positive as I'm loving this phone at the moment. Am out tonight so will see how it holds up.

So these are the stats I was getting at the end of last night. Not sure if there has been any improvement yet, but I'm only getting around just over 4 hours of screen time (percentage drops quite quickly when using the phone) so I'm nowhere near hitting the 5-6 hours everyone else is getting...

Whoa, that's some good battery performance. Sadly I don't have the option to turn off VoLTE on my UK phone. and I already tried turning off the always scanning for wifi. Not sure if its made a difference!

It's a shame as I absolutely adore this phone. After years of avoiding switching back from iOS to Android, I caved in when I saw how great the Samsung Galaxy S6 is, but the battery life is letting it down so much. If I could just sort that issue, all would be fine!

I imagine Facebook might be one of the issues, as I definitely need to turn the push notifications off for that one. As for other apps that sync often, just HotUKDeals, GSAM Battery, Instagram, Twitter, and Gmail, also Samsung Calendar... I have loads of apps but these are generally the ones...
