Mate ,
That is not enough ...you need an app like BBS , let it run for a few hours and read the logs,,,,,then you will have enough information to find the culprit

See..first check your charger.
1st A duplicate charge charges your phone fake fast and drains it equally fast
2nd calibrate your battery and test the drain rate again
3rd if you have a recovery, boot in recovery-->advanced-->clear battery.stats and check again
4th Turn sync off. Location settings off.
5th check for any background processes that run and which you dont kill..
6th have greenify or juice defender if nothing helps
7th paste a screen shot od settings-->more--->battery and we can see something
Nothing more relating to battery.
Plus please provide enough information so that we can help you out in a better awesome way B)
Sorry if I sound rude bro..No hard feelings..we were like you too
Plus note 2 has a bigger better battery with less features than the s4. Dont compare different phones

So I recently bought an s7 edge from Verizon and it has horrible battery life compared to other people with the same phone. I went to Verizon with this issue and all they did was give me another phone in exchange for the previous one but that did not help. Sometimes the battery drops 12 percent on standby overnight. I have found a few apps which have been draining my battery but I unfortunately cannot disable them: gear vr service, help, and knox use over 12 percent of battery each. I wish I could root the phone but no roots are out for the snapdragon version. Help would be greatly appreciated.
Can't you just use disabler pro to disable those apps

Im really amazed how people just go to lets say phone provider and say that they dont like the phone and they get a new one . In Poland I think this kind of thing just wouldnt work. Especially that at the moment this phone is sold out and i was luck to get mine so fast.

Factory reset?
Yea try as mentioned above to disable them otherwise boot in to recovery and factory reset the phone, or perhaps to start out you can try to wipe dalvik and cache in recovery

I don't think using location is what is causing my battery drain because like I stated before my friend also has the same phone but on a different carrier and even with heavy usage his phone battery life is amazing. But I will see which apps do use location a lot.

Yah I saw it before
Do you have AOD on at night? That will burn through some battery.
Those three apps are interesting. How did you determine they're using a lot of battery?
When I look at them in the application manager each one says it's used 17% of battery since the phone was fully charged (24 hours ago). But that can't be accurate. Added together, they'd use more than 50% of my battery capacity, but they don't show up as individual apps in my battery stats, and the largest user (Android System) only used 30%.
Can you post some screen captures of the battery usage screen showing the apps using data? You might also try force charging to 100%, then force closing those apps, and see if there's any impact on battery life. If not, then it might be worth trying Package Disabler Pro. But most Edge owners seem to be getting good battery life, so I don't think that should be necessary.
I am getting the same drain (S7 edge verizon). It only drains my battery at my dorm wifi and when I go home it's fine. I don't think it's a Samsung issue since my LG G3 with a 6500mah battery can't even last two days on standby.

I think it's a Verizon issue
The galaxy s4 comes with a heavy 2,600 mAh battery but in my case I don't think so that I've got exactly 2,600 mAh of battery. The rate of battery discharge in my galaxy s4 is same as in my other device with 1,450 mAh battery. In my other device, each percent(1%) of battery drains after 2 minutes of usage on wifi while same goes for my S4 whose discharging rate is same(1% per every 2 minutes).
What do u think I should do? I've bought s4 second hand and the condition of battery doesn't seem good, I mean not very bad but its just fine. Moreover in my country(Pakistan), there is no one selling genuine battery even not big mobile markets.
Is this caused by my battery being so old?
Probably.

One possible indication that your battery is fake is NFC not working.

I don't have NFC in my status bar, and my battery is original.
If you can't send files with NFC, then your battery is most probably fake.

But can fake battery be spotted by any physical appearance..? Like something written on battery like"Made in Korea" etc or any other thing?
If u also know any other difference, mention that too. It'd be really helpful

It's hard to spot fake batteries just by physical appearance. Even original batteries differ in appearance from one another.

Ahh I see! Thanks alot bro. You've always helped me.
As usual, BetterBatteryStats and Gsam Battery Monitor are among the first apps that I install on my new devices and I often use them to check what apps are eating my battery. The two apps worked perfectly on my non-rooted S9+ running OneUI (Android Pie) with some extra adb commands, but on this S10+ they both don't work; BBS says "No stats have been collected yet", GSam is laggy, only shows the %1, %0... and drains my battery like hell during screen off (4-5%/hour).
So has anyone succeeded in making any of the two apps work? Or are you using another app with the same function?
Thanks for opening this thread. Yes, I am having the exactly same experience like you.
I am experincing the exact same thing!
Thought I was going mental.
I'm running AccuBattery and CPU spy reloaded, both apps report that my phone never goes to deep sleep, but I can't define what causes it
The actual values seem to be fine, though. Mine uses under 1 percent per hour over night after disabling the sonos app - it is a disgrace ever since. Exynos, 512GB S9+.
I'm running accubattery and in my case it DOES register deep sleep. So the lack of feel sleep for some might be caused by another issue that actually blocks the phone from deep sleeping

had the same issue no deep sleep. but this solved the issue for me follow this steps.
go to settings - general - reset - dont factory reset - but reset all other 3 options. 1-network reset 2. accessibility reset. 3. all settings reset then redo the settings as per ur liking it ll fix the issue.
Same issue here, glad I'm not going crazy

What is your messured battery capacity? Mine is 3650-3700...of 4100...wtf?
I had this same issue, and I uninstall accubattery, install it again, and reset the battery calibration reading using that code after I cleaned system cache on recovery *#0228#, yesterday I decided to turn the device off as I though my battery was going full crazy downhill drainingtown (joke) and turn it on, left it on airplane mode overnight with bluetooth on, and it has not stabilise and accubattery does report deep sleep. Also I check the battery every 2-3 hours to see how is the drain. Running since 5 am european time at 34% now at 11% and it is 11:45 AM european time as I write this post

If it's based on charging from like 60 to 100, or 25-85 % and so on, it will only show you some rough estimates, far from real capacity possibly. 1-100 % charges are far more accurate. For what i see, Samsung is bullshiting with the 4100mAh capacity, or controller software is limiting it to about 3700-3800 regions. In the menu it clearly says- 4100 typical and 4000 minimum capacity...

It works on mine too, but only the basic stats. The problem only appears after the adb command is made. Have you used the command to enable more stats yet?

Don't forget the basic li-ion battery rules, one of them is that at least 5% of your total charge will be kept as reserve in case of overdraining, about 200mAh of your battery in this case are there to keep your battery rechargable, every battery powered device works like that, no need to accuse Samsung of anything regarding that aspect.

Sure...but i messured 3500 mAh on phone turned off...bit too much of a difference, hm? On the other hand, messuring iPhone 8 gave me almost exactly what was stated , the same with 20000mAh powerbank, messured even bit more...so i'd just encourage others to test and compare. 3h20min SoT also seems weak tbh...
