Got my mate 7 A few weeks ago. Love it. Getting awesome sot (8.5) the last charge mainly using mobile data..
But today google contact sync is draining so much battery. I've exported and deleted all contacts from google. Disabled back up my phone in settings and even disabled the app in settings and it still opens... I don't really want to have to root it. Any ideas I may not have tried?
Also wonder,my phone is rooted though, well, didn't want to freeze any Google services but some features like backup system is stubbornly running even after disable in settings. Don't know any good medicine from this issue.

Yes I know that. The thing that drives me crazy is that I have no control over running background apps, like backup, that were disabled via Google provided interface. This is type of cheating to have an interface that doesn't do much.

you know what you can do go to setings -> google account -> tap account where numbers are synced from -> disable sync contacts
see if that helps
I froze with TB google app, then defrozed it and converted to user app, also didnt enable google now service, after all I have drain 10% per 6 hours at night, while phone is on extreme battery mode and just laying on the night stand without anyone touching it. Screen on time is impressive but battery drains while screen is off.

How did you fixed it temporarily?
But the one million dollar question is: How much battery is lost while idle overnight?
This is the real question I think, because in all my tests, no matter the build version, I have got l least 5 hours of SOT (17 hours of use in total), which is not bad,
but most people get at least 7 hours SOT (in some 30+ hours) I guess I use it too frequently.
So, that would be the main question.
Please, do try to answer and tell us. Thank you!

I have already told it in this discussion, I have frost (later removed actually) google app system application, and fresh installed it from the market as user app.
As I said earlier though, now I use unrooted phone with locked bootloader, in completely original state (except I use tsf shell and disabled all unused system apps) and no longer have any problem with battery.

Which os version are you using?
I've got a solution recently and I've tried it and now my battery drain is normal I've got 5 hours SOT now.
Just shut down your device and boot it by pressing the volume down +power button it will take you to the menu from there you have to select language to English then clear the cache and then reboot your device.
That's it. This solution is from the official oneplus support team.
And I can tell you is working shower fine on my device.

i believe it's the google services & location services that kill your battery
pretty common in an un-optimized ROM with stock google play services installed
so, i Second this, Amplify, Powernap & AppOpsXposed do wonder
but also add Greenify to it, paid version offocurse so you can use full xPosed features
6 Hrs ++ SOT and still 15% left... can't ask for more since i would already fall asleep before the phone battery fully depleted, ahahaha
Thanks for the all the suggestions everyone! I'll root my device soon and get to these stuff!
A simple factory reset also does the trick sometimes.

The system is causing the battery drain, not facebook!
Facebook caused it just for a day after that everything was back to normal but Android System and Android OS is draining battery in standby.Very frustrating issue this.

Since it's in beta, it's normal to happen this thing.
Try wiping cache in recovery mode....
"wipe cache partition" and see if this helps...
Facebook, Messenger, WhatsApp = battery drain
Tried Wiping Cache many times but doesnt make any difference at all.Facebook,Messenger & Whatsapp didnt cause any battery drain on Marshmallow By the way. This is surely something else which is keeping the system awake.

Just root your phone and install a wakelock blocker.
Try to disable Google Location History and Google Location Share... in Options -> advanced -> Location...

I diabled google app. Now I only loose 1% overnight. I don't know what is actually the problem but now my phone is working perfectly. I also uninstalled Facebook. You can try disabling google app.
Hello, I recently updated my S8 from Nougat to Oreo and I noticed a HUGE difference in battery life. I usually have a SoT of 4-5+ with heavy usage. But since the update, my battery would only last around 2 SoT more or less. I had already done a factory reset and turned off Bixby but my battery is still draining.
I've also heard some people said that the new update requires the phone to "settle" and store the cache so it can "get used to" my usage, with a minimum of 1 week (only had this update for 2 days). I'm not sure if that's true but I don't seem to have many options right now which is why I'm now open to any other suggestions and if all suggestions are done and draining still persist, I might have to roll back to Nougat. Thank you.
Try disabling bixby apps. It helped to a lot of users (not me)

Good Afternoon,
The 3 phone services to disable the background activity has worked a bit but my battery is still draining pretty good... is there any other services I can check to see if the background activity is being used somewhere else?

nah.. samsung should care more about the battery draining
This is completely out of left field, but if you have Allo installed, make sure it isn't using your camera too hard. A week before I upgraded to Oreo I found that one day Allo had used my camera for 46 minutes, even though app foreground time was like 15 minutes and I hadn't launched the camera in Allo at all that day. My solution was to revoke the Camera permission for Allo and that seemed to take care of it.
Unfortunately I just got the Oreo upgrade, Allo still isn't allowed to use camera and I'm getting roughly half my normal battery life anyway as well, haven't been able to determine what else it could be yet.
Whelp, bad news, I did a factory reset and that totally fixed my battery I think! So, great for me, my phone is back to normal, but not a useful data point for you unfortunately.
I don't understand why all these "adjustments" need to be made after a version "upgrade". "I'm the latest and greatest version! I'm going to set things in your phone that eat up your battery!" WHY??
Everything was fine after the Oreo update, but I can barely get through a full day without changing. The main issue seems to be Android system.
Disable all smart locks if enabled like Voice recognition, location locks etc., It will definitely drain battery if enabled.

The problem was related to the motherboard. With the new one everything works properly.
Hi,
I have seen a battery drain for a one week. I can't stand with it. The battery drains very fast - especially at night because I got over 30% battery lose with everything turned off! I tried to wipe cache and factory reset but these ways didn't work. I dunno what's going on but it makes me sick. I think that the phone doesn't go into the deep sleep, because "Android System" takes a first place when it comes to the battery usage. Actually the battery is quite new (97,5% real capacity) so I guess that's a problem with system. I don't want to root my phone because of the knox privileges.
I attached a screenshot which shows a night usage of the battery (when I unplugged - battery percentage was 75%).
Any solutions?
What I tried:
- turn off Wi-Fi scanning
- turn off Bixby
- battery saving mode
- wiping cache
- factory reset (but I've used a backup - if that matters)
Didn't work.. So please, help me
i have exactly same problem for about two weeks. Android system is the first place in battery usage, even before screen, if i dont use phone too much. On samsung community there more people with this problem.
Maybe problem is polish version? Też jestem z polski, jedynie problem mam na modelu z plusem. Jeśli znajdziesz rozwiązanie napisz je proszę (if you find the solution please write it here)
Try not to use a backup, just for a dat or so.
Do you use OPV CSC? Or XEO? Which security patch? My is september. I unfortunately use OPV (Orange) and maybe that's the problem. Can you o provide a link to the Samsung community discussion?
I did a totally clear factory reset yesterday and it still doesn't work. ?
My sot is around 2h...
Same issue with me also.. stand by time is around 8-9 hrs only..
Not sure what happened.. service center ppl asked me to change the battery only..
Turn off GPS and your battery will last forever. On my S8 plus I only turn on GPS when really needed.
I have exactly same problem in s8+. Android system draining my battery for about 2 weeks. SOT in 2-3h.
@vemangor i've got Xeo and problem exist.

2 weeks? Lol my problem has occured for the same period. I have no Idea what I can do with it. The biggest drain is always when the screen is off and I don't use my device .
Nothing actually works... the worst battery experience I've ever seen

1) display
2) android system
3) android os
4) device standby
