Only 2 hours of Screen on Time? How do I get better battery life than this?

[Daniel Kang]

Was my first charge cycle after using package disabler pro to disable some bloat off my Verizon S6 Edge+.

Really enjoying the battery in this S6 Edge Plus. I don't run this on Super bright and the only time I use auto brightness is outside.

Just checked out Tinfoil. Wicked! Thanks for the heads up!

Hi. The battery life on the Edge+ has been abysmal for me to say the least. The very first time I fully charged the device, my battery would go from 100 to 99 in like a minute and half of scrolling around the home screen.

But I'm happy to say that after a lot of trial and error, I managed to do something that has greatly improved my battery life (Although Cell Standby usage is still abnormally high). I disabled the Google Now app, and uninstalled Papergarden and Telly which were preinstalled and useless to me. This method has somehow improved my battery life and now I can easily power through a whole day with moderate to heavy usage.

Hope this works for others having poor battery life as well. I have the unlocked variant (SM-G928C)

I use an app called gravity screen. My battery life is over 16 hours per day with pretty heavy use.

Please check if this screen on time is normal or not? The screen was on continuously from 100% to 15% on 50% brightness and on default settings with power saver mode OFF. Please comment on this. Thanks

I'll just say that I had my s6 edge + since December 2015 and lately the battery life was so bad I just went and got the iPhone 7 plus, I had never been an iPhone guy but I couldn't take it anymore. Battery life is much much better.

Im supposed to buy a s6, but due to battery issues im holding back, does nougat fix those battery bugs?
