Hi guys,
On November the 3rd I updated my S7 edge No brand to October security patch. I think my battery is worse than before.
Now I can make 4 hours of screen on, before I could make 3 hours with 50% of remaining battery.
Any of you has the same issue?
No, same as before for me.
So you already saw this behaviour for ~1 month now, constantly?
What are your main battery eaters in the battery stats?

I wrote wrong, I installed October security update on November the 3rd.
I experienced this drain over the weekend.
ANDROID SYSTEM
KERNEL
SCREEN
STANDBY SIGNAL
Me too had apparently a greater battery drain on BPJE (with October security patch).
I mean apparently because in the same period I also received the Android Wear app update to version 2.0 that might cause the drain.
Today I've installed the BPJG OTA update (with November security patch), and I'll report the situation after some significant battery cycles.
Security patches can't cause this.

Of course.
But IMHO the ITV October OTA update didn't contain only the security patch, as its size was 156.42 MB!

Moto Z Play XT1635-02 got April security patch today on RETIN channel.

Just wait, usually the update is released for India and if there are no problems then it's released for EU.

Hi! Do you experience a constant upload after the security patch?
My background data is always at a constant 12KB/s upload. It's not draining the battery drastically but it wasn't like this before.

What do you mean by battery backup?
My Google Play Services usage increased to 24% now. This "bug" is not just eating up my battery life but my cellular data as well.
BTW, I'm trying to attach screenshots here but I always encounter an error.

I think you should've done clear cache or factory reset. I do clear my cache after every system update so the system runs flawlessly.
Has anyone found documentation on AT&T S7 flat? I received the update today, 7/6.

My phone updated to G930AUCU4BQF3 on July 10. Battery is <10% by 4pm. Previously, I'd still have 20% left when I plugged it in it's usual overnight charge at 11 pm. I also have apps launching on their own while the phone is not being used. Clear all running apps, set the phone down, come back a half hour later and 3-4 apps are active. A podcast launched itself and began playing in the middle of a seminar yesterday. I've not launched that player since before the update.

Yep know how you feel. Mine also is lower by the end of day than before this Security Update.
Since the update, I've noticed that my phone feels like a toaster oven when I'm on data.
This update for me seems to have undone the good battery time I had been getting. Fast charging seems wonky as well.

yes that happened to me too...sorry update I swear I stopped rooting and more problems occur on stock firmware.
Can someone throw me their QF3 boot.img?
Hey guys I just bought the Turbopower Pack mod for my phone but I still have Marshmallow and I don’t want to update to Nougat but the battery won’t work on Marshmallow. Was wondering if there was a specific app that makes it work like a new version of Moto Mod Manager or some sort of battery mod manager and if so can someone extract it and send it to me?
Easiest way to extract an app from your phone is File Manager from the play store go to apps and backup the app you’re looking for and it will back it up to a backup folder where you can email it or upload it to google drive or anywhere you want.
Thanks
hello, did you fix your problem? I have the same issue, can't use it because I'm on Nougat 7.0 and it prompt me to update the software but I can not do that because I have root so don't work the OTA updates..

Why not just update?

Because updating to 7.1.1 will bring the notorious battery drain issue on Moto Z that negates the additional battery power.

While there is always a chance that things will go haywire when updating the OS, I'm running Nougat on my Z Force, and the battery life is incredible. Matched with the Incipio wireless battery bank, I can get up to 4 days of battery life easily. However, it's a function of maintaining a streamlined group of installed apps, and watching it closely. I have a couple of apps that I need, one is a bluetooth pet tracker, which I know burns the battery quickly. So, I just make sure when I'm done, I go to the app and kill it right away. But it's important to watch the battery usage list closely and see what's using the juice. I'm now 3 hours into my day and the main battery is at 98% and the Incipio is at 100%. By the end of the day, in Efficiency Mode, I'll probably be at 80% Main, and in the 80's% on the Incipio. However, I don't sit on FB or YT all day long, so your mileage may vary.
The point is, Nougat is supposed to be a more efficient OS than Marshmallow, all else equal. I would not reject doing an update simply because you are worried you might run into an issue. The majority of updates go fine. And, look into the battery mods - they are the greatest things ever.
Since February update I am getting very poop battery life, usually I used to get SOT of about 6hrs but now it's dropped to only 4.5hrs.
I have accubattery installed and noticed that battery use while screen is off is too much. Yesterday during night it drained 25% in about 6-7hrs of screen off and wifi off.
Anyone else also facing this issue?
Also I noticed since the update, apps are staying in the background usually even after 1-2hrs if I didn't remove the app from recent apps it was working in background but now even after 5-10mins of not using the app it's getting removed from the background.

Install greenify. Hibernate those apps. Might be some apps running in the background without you knowing. I'm on Feb update and I'm still getting 6-7hr SOT.
This has nothing to do with a security only update. I'm pretty sure the problem is caused by one of your apps which you've recently updated.
Install GSam Battery Monitor and BetterBatteryStats and see what's wrong.
Same here and I'm losing my mind. Not sure if it really is decreased or my brain is playing tricks on me. I haven't had the phone for too long, so I only had the January update for 2 weeks or so and I really feel like the February update decreased my battery life. I have set up Greenify and Amplify. I've also disabled sensors for Google Play Services with XPrivacyLua because I noticed that the body sensor was using a lot of battery for it.
Edit: Ok, I'm pretty sure I fixed it and I have no idea how. I just know that it got fixed after a restart, even though I restarted my phone before. And I'm pretty sure it was RCSService that was eating the battery.

Hi bro, I am also having the same issue. The device is installed with same apps that was before updating. I charged the device upto 90 and went to sleep. When I woke up after 7hrs the battery is drained to 55%. Android services and android system(RCS) took the battery. Did a factory reset and no issue. Still getting along with this. Any improvements mate?
Same here, that's why I reinstalled the global rom with january update only.

Yes, you will be able to get de OTAs because you are installing the official ROM, and bootloader will be automatically re-locked by the Mi Flash tool.

same here, i got 1% discharge in 6 minutes when i was in January update, but after i upgraded to feb security update, the phone discharges 1% in about 4 minutes. Yes, but the charging speed remains at 1% per minute.
I have to charge it twice, whereas a single charge lasted for a day. . i will wait for the March update

I have the same issue (mentioned in other thread with Blutooth) - and I have the same apps for couple of weeks (I am not a heavy user, app tester etc.)
If this is an app - it wolud be the update of it only...
Facing same issues. Dropped from 7.5h of screen-on time to 3.75h after February update. I wonder if it's time to move to LineageOS with MiNT kernel
