This is from yesterday. The S6 demands tweaks and babysitting to get the battery right. Keep in mind my signal is very weak your signal looks amazing you should be able to get much better battery life than this.

All Things GS6 is a good place to start. It has the most common and helpful tips for battery life.

There is something wrong with your phone or app. I have about 100 apps. No problem here.

Signal strength doesn't really matter. When I'm at school I have full 5 bars of lte but my battery goes from 100 to 0 in 4 hours and that's with 0 screen on time.

It makes a huge difference actually. It would go down even faster if you didn't have that strong of a signal. There's something else wrong with your phone if it dies in 4 hours without use

It only dies in 4 hours without use at school. All other locations including my home and my work give me normal battery life. Funny thing is at home my signal is 1-2 bars and its always switching between 4g and lte yet I can easily get 4 h SoT with 16 h standby there. I just don't know what's up with the location my school is in lol

Turn off location or Google now location based services when you go to school.

If you're travelling to school with 4G or 3G on, Google will constantly hunt for location. And suck up all the battery even when the phone isn't in use. Happened to me a lot. But I've disabled google now location based cards now. And everything works fine.

My Google now and location is off all the time. I only toggle location on when I'm using maps or something

Bars are misleading. There are a lot of other things that affect your actual signal. You'd need to know how to read SNR, ASU and dBm to get a complete picture of what that's like at your school. I've had full bars in places with poor SNR and it still kills my battery

The international version of the phone. I can't wait when this phone receives android 6.0. Samsung doze plus Google doze, a battery heaven. From 8am to 12am. My phone was at 45% battery when I went to sleep.
