Time without service

[Jcblack3310]

My OnePlus 3t has been having some weird battery issues. If I go into battery stats, one of my biggest battery drains is "time without signal". My phone has solid service and definitely isn't losing service for 10-20 minutes. My second sim slot has been deactivated because I don't have a second sim to use. I'm on T-Mobile if that helps.

The signal meter in the status bar is not really accurate. The best way to judge your signal is to go to Settings>About Phone>Status>Sim Status. That will tell you your signal strength in a number.
