Poll: S8 battery with Oreo - Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers

I've seen a number of posts saying there are battery problems with Oreo on the S8, so I'd like to do a poll.

Much worse.

Tapatalk - pictures

I know this has nothing to do with the nexus s. Is anybody else having problems not seeing posted photos in tapatalk? Sometimes all of the pictures show, sometimes none do. Sometimes some show, sometimes they'll show after leaving a thread and going back. I've googled, searched the tapatalk forums, etc. There isn't really any mention of it anywhere. Is there some setting I may have unchecked? I've looked 10 times, I can't find any picture settings. It is probably something stupid I'm overlooking...
Thanks!

Did you get the latest update?
Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk 2
Yeah I have the latest. I noticed this problem before tapatalk 2 came out. Maybe for a few months now.

I haven't gotten this problem as much since using Tapa2 but when it does happen I just tap the post and Multi Quote and they show up. Thanking a post does it too but I don't want to thank something before I see what it is

Now sound quality has been increased....But battery draining very fast compared to previous version....

I was hoping you weren't gonna say that (about the battery) the change list is substantially different to the other 4.2.2 firmwares, I thought they may have addressed that issue.

Time to go back from the german version to Indian version 4.2.2
P.s. funny how many on this thread are on the n7100 (note 2)....

1)Does the problem related to pen inaccuracy is solved it these update ???
2)And sorry for one off topic question
I m from india and I m going to buy it in few days so I just wanted to know whether indian version of note 8.0 ( note 510)(N5100) has a 30 pin connector or micro usb because I saw some reviews on youtube and some has 30 pin connector and some had micro usb port so I m really confused which one it has ???
Edit got the answer for 2) question went to samsung store near my house and saw the tablet it has micro usb
Thanks for the heads up. Will update today!

Hi Srsureshkumar
Does the problem of S pen inaccuracy is solved or not?
That is solved. I don't see any issues with s pen.

Updated yesterday. Battery draining is normal in my opinion. Phone feels a little snappy now. However had to factory reset as some of my previously installed apps crashed due to changes in internal storage identification.

Apart from the new bloatware and the loss of root access, I have absolutely nothing to complain about.
I love the new 4.2.2 update.
The s pen is better now. .it was horrible in the german firmware
Battery seems to be the normal usual. . No excess drain

That's interesting, how long were you using the German version before you were aware of the drain? And did you flash this one in the same way, mobile Odin with no wipe etc...
As I did wonder whether doing a clean slate flash and wipe would have helped matters with the German variant. I might give this one go if the vibes are positive.
Sent from my GT-N5100 using Tapatalk 4
The battery on the German version was also not different...I was just responding to the queries above....flashed the German rom the day it came out
...I flashed both the roms using PC odin..Didn't root my note 8 yet...Didn't really feel the need. ...But funnily on either rom can't get to wipe cache...getting error..so no manual wipe,..But believe PC odin does wipe cache
But running omega rom on my note 2

I'm not good at catching changes so that would be great.

I am hoping battery life regulates. I have had phone on charger all day. I am getting about 15% battery drain in 30minutes, sitting idle.
I have already factory reset my device, and will contact Tmo/Samsung this evening to see if there are known issues and what i can do help.

So after a few days, of using phone as usual, it has regualted itself back to normal.
Not sure what was hogging the battery for a couple days. But all is good now.
Now, i did the same update for my wife 2 days ago, and she had no issues.
So, maybe i caught a bad install.
