Last night I took my S22 Exynos out of charging before I went to sleep. I woke up in the morning to find 40% of my battery DRAINED.

I'm really frustrated with this S22 as idle battery drain in general with screen off according to Accubattery is 5% PER HOUR. My S22 does not enter deep sleep overnight or during the day.

I opened ADB and looked and noticed a LOT of screen wakeups when I was sleeping and the phone was not charging.

It appears the phone keeps thinking it is plugged in when it is clearly not. I wonder if this stops the phone from going into deepsleep?

I have my brightness set manually (20%) and noticed that the wakelock for screen_brightness is running.

ADB command: .\adb.exe shell dumpsys power

Please help. I am truly at my wits end with this phone. Battery drain is insane.

Welcome to Android Central! Also see if it happens in Safe Mode. If it doesn't, then at least you know the culprit is some app you installed.

Download Nice catch from Galaxy store should be able to tell you something, you shouldn't see more then 5 to 10 % at idle Total
