To get a better idea, it's more helpful to charge up to 100%, then use it normally until the battery is down to 20-30%, then show the following:

1. The main Settings>Battery screen.
2. The fullscreen battery graph screen (which shows Awake time and Cell Signal Strength).
3. The Screen category (to see total Screen On time).
4. The Cell Standby category, if present (to see Time Without Signal).

It's still not that helpful if you only post the usage down to 70-80%. Wait until it gets down to 20-30% and show us those stats. It's more helpful to see how the battery's been used over the whole battery charge.

Question for you. How do you have it so that it shows how much time your phone has been off the charger (6h 49m 0s) on that particular screen? Ever since Lollipop, that stat went away for me and I can only get that info if I use a battery moniter app like GSam Battery Monitor. My screen looks like Plucknbach's above where that info is just missing and it drives me crazy. There doesn't seem to be any way to change that in any settings menu as far as I can tell. If anyone knows, can they shed some light?

when i updated it was already there so im not sure about that

How are you showing the "14h 2m 20s on battery" uptime stat in that battery screen? That isn't shown anymore on the S5 with lollipop. Custom rom?

Hi bIOforger!

That stat, "Use since last full charge", is showing on my stock Samsung Lollipop firmware, OB7, for the G900F.

Really? mine doesnt which is also a G900F, must be a slightly different firmware, i also have to use GSAM for battery/phone uptime.

If you are on the UK's EE branded firmware, then that is the old NL9 release which quite possibly doesn't have that.

Ever since the update my phone has been losing about 1% each 15 minutes. I've tried the whole erasing the cache thing, removing FB Messenger, rebooting the phone.

I would LOVE to see 17 hours of battery life again. Lollipop sucks!

Today's stats with 10 percent remaining.
