s7 edge android 7 beta 4 battery drai - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

hello guys after latest update noguat beta 4
i have proplem with my battery its drain fast no deep sleep i didnt use the phone here is my bettery usage what is the proplem :/

Looks to me your problem is Media.
Could be the system constantly scanning your files stored on the phone, and your SD card.

Maybe a bad audio file or something. Try making a backup of your sd card and format it. Dont put anything on it and look if media goes down in your batterystats. My battery lasts very well on latest beta. See screenshot. With 4:11 mins SOT.

The clue is in the title....beta - meaning it's not complete software, bugs exist and battery drain could be one of them.

Try other Kernal
I've noticed my latest flash to onecosmic's RC4 was still battery hungry, but some tweaking with SetCPU and using NovaLauncher, as well as a proper modem for my area seem to have it straightened out again.
Does it tell you if the screen is using more than the cpu or not?
possible live wallpappers?
No live wallpapers
Can I upload screenshots? Here About my battery drain.

And can anyone tell how to back up efs?

My phone had really good battery levels until yesturday.
It crashed while I was watching videos in h/w mode then down hill from there. 100% gone in 5 hours. I have a feeling the GPU has blown??? Might try another rom.
Using Docs master rom???
Any ideas
Hi there,
Firstly, I would ensure we rule out a hardware issue by flashing a completely stock firmware using ODIN. It would be best if you remove your external SD card, and backup all your data on your internal memory and then wipe as much as you can as well. After flashing a stock firmware, see if there is a battery drain still, and if so you will at least have more evidence to suggest there is a hardware issue.
CPU Spy is an excellent app for discovering issues whereby the CPU is being utilised too much - additionally, System Panel is also excellent. However, again neither of these will be able to determine if there is a hardware issue of some sort, only excessive CPU usage.
WRT EFS backup, my preferred method it to use Root Explorer and create an archive whilst in the EFS directory. It will put the archive on your SD card - and it takes no time at all.
Some of the apps I mentioned will be charged for I guess, but not very much.
If you need more details, let me know.
:-( my battery was perfect. I installed onecosmic and it was fine battery was normal after few days my battery started draining fast 1% every 3 minutes and I flashed Miui mintberry rom and still problem exist. Even wifi off and background data off and edge too it drains 1% 3-5 minutes while screen is off or deep sleep it drain 1% evey hour
Last night I flashed back to stock rom 2.3.4 and rooted and installed Miui mintberry rom again still problem exist
What should I do :-( plx help

ok.
You need to examine this problem to narrow down the cause. You will have to invest some time and possibly a little money to achieve that! If all else fails, you can of course buy a new battery - but it's best to work out where the drain is coming from.
Have you checked the battery log in Android settings?
Also consider installing OS Monitor, it is free and allows you to look at what processes are running.

That's quite some drain!
It's important to get the right tool for the job here and the apps you are using aren't detailed enough unfortunately.
System Panel will inspect android system apps to check where CPU usage is and log it making it very easy to determine what is happneing.
BetterbatteryStats will allow you to check on the WakeLocks which are a big cause of battery drain when the screen is off.
I use them both - but must say I haven't see such fast battery drain as yours.
Throughout this process, I suggest you stick to a ROM as close to stock as possible but prefereably with CWM.
OK I installed os monitor
Gona install other two apps
And I'm gona flash back to xxjvp

ok; excellent.
If you need help turning on the "monitor" mode of system panel let me know. Otherwise just turn it on and then use your phone normally for a while (i.e. allow time for it to be left with screen off as well) after that stats will be collected to show how the CPU has been used over that time.
Also check CPU Spy and make sure that the CPU isn't "stuck" in 1000Mhz

KitKat Battery drain heat issue fixed

I can now say with some degree of certainty that I have fixed the KK battery drain heating issue and it does make sense and my thoughts on google profiling seem to be correct just that I didn't realise this particular issue could be disabled in settings.
Symptoms of problem
1. Phone not sleeping (staying warm on standby)
2. Not Charging correctly (longe time or not able to charge)
3. Media Server staying active (scanning SD card worse if you have large external SF loaded with files)
4. Sluggish performance
Simple cure
Go to settings/accounts/google/Ads and tick box for "opt out of interest based Ads"
also note that the long named folder on your internal and external sd similar to this .hgsdgfasfueuedhfyjei is your ads id that google uses to profile your content - this process requires that google scans your files and if you have nearly 80gb then it causes obvious problems, this folder only appeared after upgrade to KK
Let me test and I'll let you know if it work.
Thanks for the tip.

please do
I have to say that this isnt a fix, i have had this setting since it is there and since I upgraded to kk the heat problem.

yes there may be other causes which I may also have mentioned here, google has admitted there is an issue with the camera module and apps that call it like Skype - to be fixed in 4.4.3
I have worked with this problem now for weeks and this is the first major step in finding a complete solution for my Z1 - give it a while before you denounce it, you may have apps that are not written for KK that can cause issues - I have already ruled them out and was still left with a serious problem - the Ads setting fixed it 100%, I am now gradually installing apps again
This is a complex problem
I found out that deactivating wifi optimization will help a bit with heat and battery.

Thanks Geoffxx you are right that this is a very complex problem and Google should have issued a fix long before now but when they do how long will it be before Sony release it? Also why have Google bought these new security measures in knowing that a lot of the apps on their app store are not compatible and it will cripple a lot of their users phones?
I'm a hundred percent behind you in what your saying and for me Google are leaving a very bitter taste in my mouth and apple or wp are looking very attractive at the moment unfortunately [emoji20]

My problem was solved when I used wakelock terminator on Google Play services. I think I'd related with ads and location services. So far so good not issues with Google now.

Yeah it should lower the battery usage, but for me it does the opposite.

I don't really have a battery drain issues, and occasionally the phone gets quite warm after I have used it for a while.
I do have a 64G external SD which is nearly full, and I do suffer from sluggishness sometimes. It was like in the 2.2 days where you get occasional jerkiness while scrolling. Never had these problems before 4.4.
Also, it takes a long time for the call screen to go off after I terminate a call - don't think this has anything to do with this ads stuff, but ...

everyone has different configurations apps setting attachments etc - in my case I had SW2 (with it's apps) apps that I had installed over the years from XZ which I like to use - 64gn Ext SD installed
I worked for weeks to try and cure this issue since KK release, hours of deleting/disabling apps processes - wiping my phone completely - removing the ext sd card and reformatting, then scanning all the files with various tools and putting them back on the SD
sometimes I got a result and the phone would calm down for a day but then returned with a vengeance, it reached a point were the only way I could charge the phone in the dock was to turn it off as the charger didn't have enough to compensate for the drain
the issue always seemed related to the ext SD if I unmounted the card it vastly improved but still wasn't just quite right, the clear indication that a problem existed was the heat and the mediaserver using 40% of battery
I am very protective of my data and my privacy and opt out of everything possible - no clouds - no syncs - don't use FB or twitter - all google/sony social stuff is disabled as much as possible but the one I missed was the Ads setting in accounts/google not sure if it existed in 4.3 - once I ticked that box my phone is 100% normal, I have installed my apps back again and everything is still running smooth and cold, my phone can now go 2+ days without needing recharged which is much better than <6 hours
It is fixed 100% and I can say that with complete confidence
If you still have an issue then here are the steps I would advise
remove all installed hardware - check
Remove all user installed apps - check
if still have a problem do a repair update with PCC
return device to sony to check for hardware fault
PS forgot to mention - no need to delete those long folders .hhfdhfhsysyfghshsusd they will keep coming back

Sorry to hear about battery draining issues.
This is actually something that works on my phone, but i have however noticed a decrease in batterylife and i havent changed anything.
But fully charged 5 in the morning and modest use to 15:00(some msg, music and so on). after that i use it like nonstop with the screen on and at about 21:00 the battery says about 10%. i think that is pretty good.

Statusbar/Quick settings Tiles

Finally got my Axon 7?
I was wandering if someone knows how to delete a quick setting tile? And if it's possible to only show one network in the status bar. I think 4G/4G/3G takes a lot of space away [emoji22]
Any suggestions would be great.
Sent from my ZTE A2017G using XDA-Developers mobile app
I don't think you can delete them, but you can rearrange them.
Only the first 5 are shown in the statusbar (pulling down just once), so you can keep the ones you don't care about at the bottom and they'll only be visible with the double pull.
I personally set it up as: WiFi, BT, Soundmode, Airplane, Lockscreen
I noticed but still curious why we can't delete them. Perhaps the next Ota. Also battery drain is pretty fast. Hope that will settle during the first week

Sitting here at work, with light use, I started at 100% at 7:45am... I didn't pull it out of my desk and start using it until 10:30, and it was still at 100%.
It's currently 5 hours since taking it off the charger and I'm sitting at 94%. I have absolutely no complaints about the battery.
You might install something like GSAM battery or BBS (better battery stats) and see if you can locate the source?
Are the Quick Settings still not able to be removed?

Terrible battery life

attery life after 7.0 update is terrible, first beta was great I got 6-7 hour of SOT, now I get only 2 hours, what about you guys ? (4G always on, AOD on, internet browsing, messenger, light gaming)
That's suprising. I am getting great battery life since Nougat 7.0
Stock firmware.
Around 110 apps installed
No battery saving apps (such as Greenify).
No apps are optimized for battery saving.
Always on Display enabled.
Auto Brightness Enabled
GPS turned on
Sync turned on

lol yeah maybe the guy who posted should drop accu battery app to begin with. :/ don't know.
My battery life is on par with my original March 2016 MM release, which is pretty decent. I did have huge battery season at first on nougat, but removing the built in news app seemed to resolve this. Not sure if that was coincidence though.
Which rom are you guys using? I have 7.0 BTU. Battery life is average, not better than MM. 4.5 hours.

Having the same issue. unplugged at 100% and went to sleep for 5 hours. came back and the phone was at 72%. Not normal at all for me.
standby is great but while using the phone the battery drains a lot more in nougat than marshmallow, even the hd and fhd options seems useless coz they don't help a lot with saving the battery. the moment i unlock my device and start using it the battery starts to drop immediately .may be need to visit service centre.
Using the device for more than 1 hour and its showing 38 minutes moreover no detail of usage is it a bug? Fee minutes ago it was showing correct

Massive battery drain on (Exynos) International S10+ after new firmware: G975XXU3ASIE

Hi,
I just downloaded the new firmware for my S10+ exynos version via OTA. The firmware version is G975XXU3ASIE
I'm getting terrible battery drain after installing it. I've rebooted and wiped cache, but it hasn't made a difference. I can't seem to find what is causing the drain. Normally I am able to have my phone running the whole day and when I wake up the next morning it's be at 40-50% battery left. Now it's about 20% left instead, so theres definitely a huge drain.
Do I need to factory reset to resolve this issue?
Any ideas on what the problem could be? From what it looks like google play services is taking a massive amount of battery, but not running for a long time. Also, whattsasp, twitter and other social media services. But those weren't a problem before. I feel like play services might be the issues. So I cleared data on play services but hasn't seemed to make a difference.
Any other solutions, or do I need to factory reset? Thanks!
I've attached my battery stats for today, and for the week.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks guys!
Can anyone offer some advice?
