Hey Everyone
I downloaded the latest Nougat Firmware (France Version) for my SM-G928F
I did a clean Nougat install with Odin (after I wiped everything) and after that I flashed the TWRP Recovery with SuperSU. Now I have experienced that the battery life is really bad, it's like the deep sleep bug I had with 6.0.1. a year ago....
Here's a screenshot of the battery history
https://www2.pic-upload.de/img/33267464/Screenshot_20170602-012352.png
Is there any solution for this issue?
Same for me, on stock with no root i have a bug with deep sleep, i have lost about 10 % in less than 4 hours of deep sleep but idk why. Using XEF Rom too...
You need a kernel that fixes deep sleep issue. I recommended dr ketan nougat rom + kernel it comes with or khongloi rom. Both are polished nougat roms that have extra features with the S8+ port.
If you dont wanna flash a custom rom just flash an arter97 kernel or a khongloi Vx kernel.
I'll try out another stock rom from my country since it's finally released now. But I'm sure the bug does appear again. I really don't like custom kernel or roms, only if there's no other way... Maybe I go back to 6.0.1. Stock, had no issues there with Custom Recovery and Root.

Is there any fix for stock unrooted version ?
I will send my S6Edge + to warranty so i dont want to take the risk to root it now to be sure that it will not make a problem.
Thanks

All samsung phones have it. Its just sometimes due to irregular movement the OIS module gets jammed and has trouble trying to stabilise the picture. It usually only happens ever so often.

Guys, Do you have problems with Charging? After nougat even wen WIPED phone etc. I have problem witch car charger.
With WALL CHARGER on fast charge i can use my phone normally and i can see how fast it charges. In car if i am using Maps it charges verry slowly, sometimes even discharging. With MM it was charging Fast. in 30mins 10% with maps turned on was normal, now it can charge 1-2% or even dicharge 1-2%... Tested Few chargers, original and not;....
Same here. My battery is not very good after update.
Same here. Sh*t Samsung - not enough 1 year delay spreading firmwares when there's a new one already presented and only 18 months firmware guaranteed, there are always more problems and bugs. This battery drain is a problem or bug each time become worst! I think Samsung, never more - or a lot cheaper chinese who are the same or better and not so fragile (like new htc, xiaomi and so on) or iPhone that we've always new firmwares just in time at for, at least, 4 years guaranteed.
I'm pissed off with this sh*t Samsung...

hey all
ive read that many people had problems with their battery lives since the update to nougat. i installed one custom rom (RR) on nougat on my nexus 6p but then due to the inexistence of xposed framework decided to downgrade to marshmallow again (same rom RR). my problem is that ever since i did that, my battery life even on MM is severely bad (as soon as unplugged from charger, battery starts to drain, even after a clean flash, and moreover when phone reaches 15%-10%, phone turns off on its own with battery dead notification)
am just wondering if any nougat residue files still exist somewhere that i can just get rid off somehow though i wiped device fully(including internal)
and if not, what other options do i have? am suffering with the battery life, big time
thanks

There is nothing left over after a wipe and flash
Make sure battery saver auto shutdown is off.
It may take a day or two for the battery to be normal after a flash.
Charge to 100% the let the battery drain o shut down.

I've done this process 2months ago now. And still no adjustment
Just stay on nougat, just make sure you get a good rom like Chads uber and faster angler kernel.
Download a battery calibration app from the store. One that uses root. That fixed the early shutdown problem for me.

What do you even get with xposed though? I know there's amplify but there's something called wakeblock on nougat which is very similar. It only works on stock rom or custom but you'd have to integrate the patch file with git into the custom ROM which includes making a build of Android through linux in terminal.

Huawei are bsing you and are obviously too greedy with money to give you a replacement. With the app mods you can basically get the same stuff anyway with modified apks. There's an easy way to get youtube adaway and background playback through modified apks and lucky Patcher and there's apps like instagram++ What's the messenger mod?

None of that seems worth staying on marshmallow. That mod doesn't even seem useful and I'm sure there's a modified apk that can do that without xposed.

Nougat is great there's modified apks for basically any xposed mod and xposed will be out eventually and I know it will probably be hard to leave it but I have forgotten about it. The custom ROM and kernel I use get me 6-7 hours sot too and because apps install with jit they install quicker. There are also other benefits like speed performance, layout like settings and custom ROMs aren't really supporting marshmallow anymore for nexus 6p and there's other things too like more mods like Google Assistant is as simple as flashing a zip or changing and adding to the build.prop etc etc
Here's the screenshots you asked for in pm
I've got 7.1.1
But battery still dies fast as soon as off the charge. Am using RR latest build and kernvatore kernel. Also at 20% dies suddenly. Did the battery calibration as well
I too love me some xposed modules! I've been on Nougat since the initial release so I've been missing xposed for quite sometime. I have faith that xposed will be released for N eventually...
As far as battery on nougat, I was able to make it a little better by turning off all my sync settings from google. I also installed better battery stats and came to find out that Facebook and its messenger app never like to go to sleep and drained the hell out of my battery. Greenify app fixed that issue for me.
I flashed the stock image and i found the battery life abysmal. Not even a day
7-8 hrs tops with barely any usage
Anyone has experienced the same issue
Give it a few days and see if it improves. Sometimes drastic updates can have adverse effects on the battery

I have one of the best battery life on O right now and I'm not pointing fingers to anything but google.
I was excited after hearing "Android Vitals" and they are on point about it.
Try to flash a custom kernel like EX or Flash though Ex's kernel isn't fully committed with the O source code but you may at least try it. On a side note there are still apps out there that aren't coded properly for O which would probably hinder your angler so look out for them a lot.
Thank you everyone for pitching in
Like I mentioned I flashed the stock image and gave it 2 days but as I disconnect the phone from the charger at around 9 AM (100%) , by 3-4 PM I am being left with 30% or less . By 6 PM it starts beeping as it hovers 15%
I barely use the phone at work. I just do occasional messaging (text and whatsapp). I removed all apps except the ones that I really need. No games...etc
I did flash the other day the EX Kernel ( Beta for O) for which I have the paid manager version.
It drives me crazy as it seems to be draining at a very fast rate with no apparent reason.
What's even more frustrating is that the built in battery app doesn't shed much light. The process that takes the most battery is "System" but that's all.
Maybe it's time for a new phone

Yes, I went back to paranoid nougat, because I got the same
battery experience as you with O. But I'm reading that you use
what's app, do you can play a video if someone sending you one? Since the O previews for me the videos are just loading but not playing, and that's only the case by using android O, doesn't matter if I use what's app or what's app beta.
I got the 2% battery drain bug and sometimes i dont, ive reflashed oreo about 8 times lol, sometimes it dies at 15%..

I haven't had any issues with any of the apps. Whatsapp works well I can play videos see the pics etc

No, just my twrp backup, you can stay on latest bootloader and radio. Strange thing with whats app, may oreo doesn't like my internal, if final release come I will complete clean flash with fastboot.
Edit: check latest Pixeldust rom, it's like pa with a bit more useful features
I think my phone may be defective
Even on Paranoid the battery seems bad
The miscellaneous was on top of the list . What does that mean .... ?
Battery update.- Running kylo kernel r9 , working great so far just a few personal tweaks applied.

I'm not sure what you're expecting, give the rom some time and charges to settle battery. How old is your phone? If you don't have patience flash stock image and completely wipe your phone if you think something is faulty.
Well...
I used to get like a day out of the phone . With my minimal usage I would disconnect it in the morning and still have like 30-40% when getting back home in the evening.
All of the sudden one day I was just on my way home and I noticed the phone was off. I tried power it back on but it kept on flashing red as it was totally drained. Since then battery went downhill.
I'm not crazy and I do not have unrealistic expectations but 5 or 6 hours of battery with almost no usage seems a bit off. I gauged just by looking at the numbers being something ridiculous like 10% an hour.
I did wipe and flash the stock few times. Oreo then Nougat
Since the issue persisted I am thinking the phone just went bad.
If your battery is faulty, then it's faulty, that's why i asked how old your phone is. Ain't there battery health apps to take a look how worse it is.
Yeah I think it's maybe 1yr and half old.
I'm starting to evaluate those Essentials and Pixels 2.
Or better get a Pixel 1st gen if they drop low enough
Sounds to me like your battery is worn out. I'm amazed that you got 1.5 years out of it because I've seen posts from people who didn't even make it a year. You mentioned that it's draining 2% at a time and shuts down at 15%, which are pretty strong indicators that your battery is shot.

Nokia 8 (pure android) is an option too, but I would change the battery, n6p is still a very nice piece of hardware. Essential
is a hype phone til now.

There are so many floating around and I'm not sure about their quality

Hard to say, I will run accubattery for week, after a first charge it doesn't look very promising for me too, and my phone is a bit over a year old. may some other users know a better tool or app, but this one doesn't seem to be so bad. Let's see what happens after some charges.
Akku Gesundheit=Accu Health, sry it's german here.
If you search for a replacement there is a thread here on xda
for the 6p, OEM battery or something like this

I'm running Resurrection Remix on the latest build and have been having horrible battery life (about 2 hours sot) since quite a while now. I now charge like 2-3 times a day and overnight...
I recently did a clean wipe and reinstalled all my apps while only restoring Google authenticator and wifi passwords with titanium backup. I'm rooted with Magisk. I bought my Axon7 quite exactly one year ago. Have I fried my battery?

You could try flashing a different modem for your model.
Maybe an app or two also keeping it awake and trying for a network? Not getting a deep sleep in doze.
Stock ROM has power manager and I suspect that is the only reason I get a day from mine.
If you're still suffering I suggest you go back to stock or reflash properly as in step by step and make sure nothing has gone wrong.

Where would I get that? I believe a friend helped me flash one a few weeks ago, but I don't remember where it was from. (I've had the issue before too, though)
I get this too. Absolutely horrible battery life. Well this started happening after I flashed the B32 bootstack and stock system to fix my camera issues. At first I thought it was the stock rom but I flashed candyrom and the llama sweet kernel EAS version and I still get it. I do think it's the phone signal but I'm not sure yet. I used to drop to 98% in about 10-20 minutes with WiFi on and screen on. Now I lose 10% in that time. I went from 98% (it doesn't even want to fill charge anymore but I think it's the kernel) to 92 in 10 minutes.

I feel you... I really hope it's just basically a software issue... If you have any solution, please, please update me and the others here - i just flashed the kernel that got recommended to me and I'll try if it makes things better. Otherwise I'll wait for Oreo, I guess...
I'm not even that sensible to bad battery life in phones because i always carry a powerbank, but if the phone barely makes it to work in the morning and I have to recharge it at work at 25% or so, it gets a little annoying ^^

True that...I don't believe it to be the battery. It could be software. I noticed that my battery usage spikes up to 1140+ mAh and stablizes at 460 mAh which is way too much. I remember only getting up to 430+ in worst cases and stabilizes at 200-300+
Here's what my battery usage looks like:

Fullstock is how I got into this mess i think, since this started happening as soon as I flashed B25 bootstack and stocksystem. But the new baseband, I'll try that and see how it goes. However that's B25, we're on B32 so hopefully someone posts the new modem. I have not tried flashing an older bootstack as I somehow doubt that will fix it. Granted, i noticed my battery life starting to wear while I was on an older bootstack while on DARK rom.

Hello!
Just got a note 4 from my friend to play with since he's not using it anymore. The problem is that the phone heats up a lot whenever its on, even if the screen is off.
My guess is that the processor receives too much power from the battery? Or is it possible that the problem is related to the CPU? Or is it the battery?
Right now im tempted to buy a new replacement battery just to see if the battery is the problem. But i hope for some advice if you guys have experienced this before. Thanks!
Update 1: Changed the battery. The drain is much slower compared to before but the phone still gets really hot. Any idea why?
I have the same problem. I am not sure why overheating happens but I think about few things: constant Wi-Fi activity, a lot of installed apps, low free memory.
I just ordered a battery to see if its the problem
Yesterday my phone was very hot and very slow. I thought battery can't be the reason but I was wrong. I replaced my few months used battery with my old one and phone worked normally. So battery can be the reason for overheating.

The first time it was just the stock rom and kernel. Then i tried blissrom with its kernel and still the same results. Right now im using the superstock rom with its kernel

BlissRom is very old, did u try anything new like Nemesis? It has very good kernel also, SpaceLemon. Try it and see if your problems are solved.

I tried nemesis and erobot but they were pretty laggy since i had to use minimum clock speeds or else it gets hard to hold the phone cause of the heat. Also i think one of them had spacelemon kernel but i couldnt change the clock speeds and the phone became unbearably hot so i quicky changed to bliss then superstock
Got a new battery today will pop it in when i get home.
Does your phone still overheats?

When im in the OS yes it does. But when i was in TWRP last night it was pretty normal unlike the time before the new battery. Also the idle drain is disturbingly fast i left it on last night and when i woke up today it was fully drained. Still trying to find out if there are apps causing the drain
Maybe latest firmware cause that. I am planning to flash 5.1.

I will also try that
Please post the results.
It runs relatively cooler (like cool enough that i can use it without a case without burning my hand, it just gets warm) on rulinglite rom which is on the 5.1.1 version so it does have something to do with the firmware maybe. The battery still drains too much though even in safe mode so im not sure anymore on whats the problem on my note 4

Unfortunately nothing i try fixes the overheating i read at a note 5 forum that his phone overheats constantly because of the too many charging cycles probably damaged the motherboard. I think that might be the cause of overheating here too.
Also no problem with unmounting or anything else. Just the overheating and the massive battery drain even when the screen is off

I am also having problem with random memory card unmounting. I think overheating is reason for that.

Sad to say that these note 4's probably cant be used as daily drivers anymore i have to charge mine to every 3 hours lol since thats all the battery life it can give on a single full charge
Such a shame since the screen is so good and the camera is super crisp too. I will probably just use it for some daylight photography haha
Have you tried simpl rom?
Using genuine samsung batteries or 3rd party?
NFC on,bluetooth etc?
Tried with mem card and sim out?
Which model you have,exynos or qualcomm?
Have 2x910C here and no probs.

I have C version of Note 4. I bought new battery but I still have problem with overheating and random memory card unmounting. I have a lot of applications and latest firmware. I didn't tried to use 5.1.1 firmware and don't know how to solve this problem.
Hello!
After four years with the same ROM in my note 3, (X-ROM 21.0), due to the phone is a bit slow and so on, I would like to change it.
Could you tell me which room are you using and why?
Thanks!

After trying almost every single rom i am daily driving Darklord reborn v4.1 s7 edge marshmallow rom port by nx team with darklord ux v2.0 kernel.
No bugs so far very fast ui launcher no lag very stable.
Always on display,blue light filter,outdoor mode,ultra power saving mode,theme store game launcher,beats audio,viper4android,dolby atmos,dual speaker sound mod and almost everything working without bugs.
Getting 5 hours of Screen on time on wifi.
Definitely recommend it.
I am not saying other roms are not good it's just my own personal opinion.
Just a quick tip
If you wish to try this rom you must update your bootloader and modem to latest version of lollipop.

You mention always on display, does it actually work on that ROM without excessive battery drain?

Always on display consumes about 2% to 3% battery per hour on this rom.
any other suggestions from other modders? i just got a note 3 and i was wondering which rom is the best up to now. (gaming and moderate battery life)
if you are using a customized kernel, please do mention it maybe i can get an idea from your setup. thank you xda!
Very few active updated roms for Note 3 /likewise many rom downloads long gone .
Start by looking in development for active roms .
