    Pixel 2 XL Battery: Is Android System and/or Google Play Services Draining Me?

    Update: So after determining my apartment was indeed a blackhole for cell reception, I decided when I am at home to put my Pixel on airplane mode but kept Wi-FI turned on and turned on WI-FI calling and this is my results after half a charge discharged. Quite happy to get the SOT I wanted and I...

    Pixel 2 XL Battery: Is Android System and/or Google Play Services Draining Me?

    So I did another day of battery tracking and I am skeptical if the poor cell reception is the only culprit of my battery drain. I would imagine battery drain would fall under "Phone Idle" in the screenshots? I still get a lot of drain from Google Play Services & Android System.

    What if I turned off mobile data when I was on Wi Fi and turned on Wi Fi calling? Would that help the battery without losing any functionality?

    Verizon. Is a signal booster the only way to improve battery life?

    Pixel 2 XL Battery: Is Android System and/or Google Play Services Draining Me?

    My stats from today with GSAM. Still early but significant draw for < 1 hour of SOT. No commuting and I spent the majority of the day at home with WI-FI and it appears cell signal is worse than I thought. The spike where it improves is where I went out to lunch for an hour.

    Sounds good. Do I need to root GSAM to my phone? And once I have a charge worth of data what charts should I share?

    Pixel 2 XL Battery: Is Android System and/or Google Play Services Draining Me?

    So here is an update. I got to approximately 75% battery with a half hour of SOT. I have been on wifi the entire time and everything else remains the same. One 5 minute call and a few quick check of texts, emails, etc.

    Would I have the same problems even when I am on Wi-FI?

    HI Andrew, thanks. I did a factory reset when I was on the Feb update for other troubleshooting reason and it seemed to help a bit. I might try safe mode this weekend.

    Hmm, I would argue that I am in an area of good connection and even, I am only on LTE for ~3 hours of the day. I will try turning off Wi-Fi as well.

    https://imgur.com/gallery/ULY5p https://imgur.com/gallery/4jM6T I got the Pixel 2 XL a litlle over 2 week ago and love it. I spend the majority of my day on WI-FI and on a good day can get 4, once 5 hours of SOT. But on days where I work from and home and then commute to center city Philly for...

    Samsung Pay/Android Pay on the S5?

    So with the announcement of the S6 they also announced Samsung Pay, an application where you could link your debit/credit card to an account and pay via NFC AND standard magnetic credit card readers. This will be readily available for the S6 this summer, will we see Samsung Pay on the S5? I love...

    Galaxy S5 Verizon September Update.

    Same thing is happening to me. It's somewhat odd. The first "category" of emojis (smileys, hearts, etc.) seem to be laggy along with the recently used category. But the other ones seem to be fine. I've been using the keyboard emojis. Does seem snappier the update. Full charge tonight and I will...
