Today battery is draining quicker..

[DanielLoreti]

My battery life had been great, was getting roughly 6 hrs SOT for about a week, now this was today. Same usage as the past week. My Android system, would never go above 3%, not its equal to my SOT. Bummed I got kissed by the Android system bug

Can't you disable Android System?

What ?? If you disable that then nothing will work lol.

I've seen a few on the forum saying you can and it doesn't effect anything.

You can stop it running in the background but disabling it completely idk.

Sorry that's what I meant lol.

 

[mlbyanks11]

Honestly I've tried everything and this battery is awful at least in my case. I contacted tech support at ATT and they're useless.

Stopping it from running in the background is useless, it just starts again next time the device is booted.

My battery yesterday took a big hit and I couldn't figure out why. I remembered I turned on Samsungs found my phone and I think that was the culprit, I turned that off and it seems that my battery life has turned for the better (knock on wood).

Are you not concerned of not being able to track it if lost or stolen ?

Is 6 hours SOT good?

Is 6 hours SOT good?

Yes, that's really good.

Is 6 hours SOT good?

Yeah AND no... Really..
Depends on screen brightness/location/bluetooth/signal strength .. etc.

You could probably push 10 hour SoT tweaking usage and settings

Location high accuracy, 40% brightness, no BT, mix of wifi/LTE. 6 hours SOT with 40% battery left.

I actually got a brand replacement note 9. I literally didn't charge my phone until 10pm last night. Took it off the charger around 2am last night and standby drain sucks. Don't get why it drained 10 percent while idle.

If you want great standby time, you should probably consider turning off AOD. While it doesn't consumers huge amounts of battery in comparisons to someone actively 7 using their phone, it still uses a lot compared to a phone just sitting idle. You can click on AOD and it will show you how many mAh of battery it's used.

You're right it was using 168mah. I disabled it for now and I'll see if it gets better. Appreciate the tip.

In my experience, AOD uses about 1% per hour give or take a little. I have turned it off in the past but find it useful so I just leave it on now. For those times where I'm not actively using my phone or won't be for a while I just place the phone face down. When the proximity sensor is covered, such as when face down, AOD is turned off.

Time for a battery replacement?

I set my AOD on a schedule from 8:30 am until 9pm
