I need some help with my S7. There have been some good days but far too many bad days. The battery just doesn't last. I have WiFi and Sync on, all other location services and mobile data off, screen brightness reduced and today has been fairly light use, but in less than four hours the phone is down to 53% (now, 54% when I started this post). When I check the battery page, Android system is eating 41%, Google Services is at 21%, Android OS is at 9% and Screen is at 9%. This has been a recurring issue with this phone. Since I can't pinpoint an app that is draining the battery, what can I do? Now at 52% in a matter of minutes with the phone mostly idle (typing this on a regular PC). Any ideas?
You mentioned it already but, my first suggestion would be to check if any Apps are eating your battery. You have also ticked all the other boxes i would have suggested. The last thing i can think of is simply to re-load the OS and see it that helps.
