Nougat 7.1 Dev preview bugs?

If you were happier with the battery life on Marshmallow, flash that image and then decline any updates that come up.

I'd love to, but I don't know how

If you search Android Central I'm sure you can find a recent article on how to flash images. The images can be found here (if they're not in the source article).

I agree about the battery life - it's phenomenal.

Indeed

I am running stock and with no special kernel. I just sailed past 6 hours for the first time on this phone yesterday.

Just an FYI, constantly running the battery down that low will shorten it's operating lifespan quicker than it needs to be.

I don't usually run it that low. I was at 3 hours SOT at 52% and wanted to see if I would get to 6 hours SOT. I never got 3 hours before hitting the half way mark either so I was curious what I would end up with.

Oh, I figured. I've done the same thing before, on my Nexus 6 to see just how far it would go if I just didn't turn the thing off (6 hours, coincidently).

Haven't gone that route with my 6P yet.

On Nougat 7.1.1 beta, phenomenal battery life. The best yet for me also

Everyone praising 7.1.1 battery life, did you factory reset or do anything special after updating?

 

[Ron Copsetta]

Didn't do anything except for powering off then back on and cleaning app cache's

 

[Ron Copsetta]

Scream on time

 

[Ron Copsetta]

Still 15% left

I see all these 7.1.1 Beta 6P's getting 6 Hours SOT off a full charge. I'm on 7.1.1 and get around 4 hours of SOT. What kind of activities are you performing on your phone? Games? Facebook? Videos? Do you have good reception? Also, once you got the 7.1.1 update what have you done (i.e Restart phone, clear cache e.t.c)

I see small bursts of charging in there, sure you can get 6 SoT...I mean a full 100% to 0, no charges in-between.

Sorry, that data point is meaningless - you have 3 (or 4, depending on whether you rely on the graph or the Charging indicators at the bottom) intermediate charge cycles thrown in.

That's a perfectly legitimate SOT expectation.

I got 6 hours SOT without any charging shenanigans. I posted all the screen shots. It's possible.
