Fix- Battery drain 2.3.3 - high android OS

Hi there
I just like to share my experience with battery drain in both JVK and JVB and give you a possible fix.
I experienced battery drain both in jvk and jvb and when you go setting - battery check, I would see high android OS - up to 60 percent which just drank the juice out of my phone.
I've decided to test all the apps, deleting one by one in order to locate which app was causing this problem and I found it to be "software update".
So here is a possible fix for you guys who are experiencing similar problem.
Go to setting - manage apps - all apps - find software update - delete data
In both JVK and JVB it solved my battery drain problem almost instanly.
I also did battery recalibration but doubt it played any part.
I hope above method will solve the battery drain problem.
P.S
does anyone know what exactly software update does?
and how to delete it completely off the phone.
I doubt I will be using OTA update or anything like that since I'm a big fan of odin.
Cheers

thanks man.
i'm checking it out, i really hope this solution works!
this is my second night in a row, where im going to sleep with exactly 89 percent battery and when i got up i saw the phone is at 8 percent.
made me so pissed i wanted to go back to my sony-erricsson from 2005

Hmm, this "fix" was kinda known a long time ago? (you can see it even in the thread called something with Android OS and few more) http://goo.gl/Hpc5a . And I think its the OTA update which does nothing currently. Hmm, am confused about your question. You ask what it does then you say you wont need it anyway .
And for example freeze it with titanium backup? Now when click the option it does nothing (no fc and phone works normally)

Yea just found out that this fix was known a long time ago.
Well, I hope this helps some people anyway..
anyone know how to delete this software update apk??

Do you read what I wrote? The same way you can freeze it, you can delete it... Best with titanium backup, should be foolproof enough. Do a backup before etc.

Deleted the data and also the apk! Nothing changed

Ok but is your Android OS usage high? like 40-60 percent? Or something else is high?

So you are wrong here . This thread is like the other ones for the ppl with high Android OS usage. 9 percent is ok.
Well if display is 61 , how many hours on? And what else is there? More data we need.

When I was on JVK, I was able to fix the android OS problem but had another one where after playing a graphically intense game, the CPU would not ramp back down when the phone went to sleep. That was draining the battery a lot for me and the only way to fix it was to reboot the phone. I'm back on 2.2.1

Disabling software update seems to not work for me also, im using stock Ginger (latest version - probably final) and after 1-2 days after flash Android os is taking 70% of battery :/
Looks like software update isnt the issue.

I lost the data about it, but i have the screens about the test i made yesterday and the one i made today morning. Yesterday it was for the most time in standby with data off , and today i tried to leave it 3h in standby without touch it.
I lost 10% !! in 3h !! WITHOUT DATA! is really too much! With the 2.2.1 i used to lost 1% every 2-3 hours! ! And as you can see in the first day , in the last part i tried to use it (ONLY FOR READ A MANGA , so only img on the sd and i had the brightness to 20% ) O_O !
Help me :-/

What is the fixed bug? I have the battery drain bug and the browser bug? And no one of them are fixed :-|

The bugfix worked in my case!
I charged my phone to 100% in the forenoon (~11:00am) and I only had 21% left at 7:20 pm.
Now it's 11:30 pm and I still have 20% after I removed the data of the OTA-Update app.

Yes it can. A guy was struck by lightning over 10 times over the course of his life.
Anyway, I would do a full wipe and re-flash the software.

Horrible battery drain on s7 edge nougat. Attached battery status from BetterBatteryS

Hi guys, really need some help on this.
After upgrading to nougat on my Su edge intl ver (exynos) SM-G935FD.
The battery has been horrible. From what I see in BBS it's always awake and running on max CPU state. Attached the ss... Please help me.
I've tried the following:
Clear cache using recovery mode
Cleared permissions
Disable Google play services (causing many other Google apps to fail so I enabled it)
Turning off wifi and location
Using data saver
Using battery optimisation
Using greenify
Tried the above methods solo, or a combination, all which failed to help.
From what I see Samsung pay is causing the problem. How do I solve this? It's an integral part of my life (really convenient). Thanks all in advance!

Try to disable some apps or if your phone is rooted delete them. Clear apps permission or references or wipe factory reset through recovert.

I have tried disabling apps like Facebook, messenger, Instagram, etc but no avail. Permissions method also tried. Reset all settings tried too.
I'm only left with factory data reset which I'm unwilling becaue Samsung cloud doesn't seem to be working properly.

I have the same problem too. I noticed that after the Nougat update my phone started to live twice shorter after recharging (1 day instead of 2). Couple of days ago I installed AccuBattery app which shows me that my phone lost almost 25% of its battery capacity :/ Don't know what to do. I am curious if I can ask for a battery replacement from Samsung service (warranty) or not.

I'm not sure too. I might try soon after I have more free time on my hand.
I tried reset settings and so far BBS doesn't show samsung pay alarm wakelocks anymore. I'm gonna monitor for a while. and see how it goes because I still feel that the battery life is pretty bad...

Well I haven't tried any of the battery monitoring apps, but after the Nougat update my S7E shows me 15 hours and 5 minutes remaining right after unplugging from a wall charger.

well batterys have a capacity, there are number of charge cycle after which the battery doesnt stay healthy and the backup gets short..... After nougat upadate I have noticed battery drains but not that aggressive like yours.. You can factory reset you phone once and chk if samsung pay is still sucking battery...

Not very accurate. It is based on current usage. Use gsam or betterbatterystats to get an accurate read on your battery usage.

The latest update also reduced the battery life of my phone. I did a factory reset and things have improved, but still less overall battery life compared to the old firmware, might revert back to it.

Did you try using custom rom?

Try this. Charge your phone after disabling fast charge. I.e charge it in normal mode.
I have seen that the baterry lasts much longer this way.

It is possible, but might interfere with the rom's cache data and i don't think it will perform better because of that. So a factory reset is usually needed when reverting.

I'm going to try reverting tomorrow, will see if it happens and post here if successful.

HI EVERYBODY
I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH MY GALAXY S5 G900F
IT KEEPS REBOOTING SO I TRIED A SOFTWARE AND IT DIDN'T WORK
SO I FLASHED A CUSTOM ROM THEN IT WORKED FOR A WEEK AND THE PROBLEM SHOWED UP AGAIN
SO NOW EVERYTIME I FLASH A CUSTOM ROM THE PHONE WORKS FOR COUPLE OF DAYS AND THEN THE SAME PROBLEM KEEPS COMING BACK
..

ANY IDEAS

Hi there,
Can you please define what "a software" means? What custom ROM did you install? Have you tried reflashing stock ROM and try isolating the problem (so, don't install you're usually apps, test them one by one) whether it is an app caused issue or hardware (happens regardless of app/ROM install)? Have you considered getting a new battery? Apologies for the vague questions but the level of detail provided is not sufficient for us users to effectively help.
Regards, Saber

i think the main problem here is the part that detect the battery percentage, or atleast the battery itself. Since i plugged in my phone then it hanged so i had to pull out the battery then put it back on while still plugged in, then my batter percentage increased from 24% to 45% by just doing that.

N910C overheating?

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.

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.

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.

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

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.
