So no modifications need to be done to fit that battery in it?
[Galaxy S6 General] Lucoso46:
NO :)

You will save almost 450 € for one plus 3t or 700 € for a s7 for example.. and when you put it:" boom this is the perfect smartphone in the market" ahah
[Galaxy S6 General] 350Rocket:
If the bigger s7edge battery fits there would be no reason to go with the regular s7 battery. I was thinking s7 edge used in another year or more might be my next phone just because of the big battery and SD card slot, but that battery in this phone would be almost perfect, other than no sd card slot
[Galaxy S6 General] Navios92:
There is another hassle-free option, which is buying a descent slim power bank.
[Galaxy S6 General] 350Rocket:
Not exactly hassle free IMO. I have one and I've used it the few rare times I've needed it and its a pain to carry two devices connected to each other. I'd rather just have a better battery if possible.
[Galaxy S6 General] Lucoso46:
S7 edge need more time to calibrate because there are 1050 mAh of differences

---------- Post added at 12:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:42 PM ----------

I hate using them, one s7 edge battery cost 20€ one (good) power bank 25/30€ in Italy..
[Galaxy S6 General] AndroZoom:
I'm normally getting 3h SOT with heavy usage, but then the battery lasts for about 7-8 hours. If the cycle lasted for 15-20hours, then SOT is hardly 2hours. When I bought the phone, it was much better. That's the main reason I want to replace it
[Galaxy S6 General] nvrmndryo:
What you are getting is gud or wts supposed to get. Try using greenify & amplify, and check whether ur cell network is hogging ur battery. Also turn off Location when you don't need.

Still u feel to change battery then go with it, you can try putting s7 edge battery like few ppl did.
[Galaxy S6 General] jr866gooner:
Yep and you can void your warranty too. Samsung might even refuse to fix a faulty device. That's worst case or they might simply add an s6 battery back in at further cost!
[Galaxy S6 General] AndroZoom:
How is putting s7 edge battery possible? I not capable of doing that or will they do it for me in the store?
[Galaxy S6 General] Lucoso46:
You can do it yourself..

It's easy to do, it's take lot of time (30 mins or 1 hour) and pacience
[Galaxy S6 General] nvrmndryo:
You can read previous post, it's possible. If you are an expert then you can do it, or get it done by local store. Service center won't do this.

If you don't want to do this the simply replace with S6 battery from service center.

Goodluck.

**

In my opinion and with experince, replacing S6 battery won't make any difference. If it's possible for you then sell ur S6 and get s7 edge if feasible.
[Galaxy S6 General] AndroZoom:
But, is that battery good for using? I'm afraid it will be a fake one which will turn out to be worse than the original s6 battery.
[Galaxy S6 General] Lucoso46:
Yes is very good!
[Galaxy S6 General] AndroZoom:
Thanks for the info! Lastly, can you maybe suggest me where I can buy that battery from? :)
[Galaxy S6 General] nvrmndryo:
There is only one place you can trust, Samsung service center.
[Galaxy S6 General] AndroZoom:
I meant where I can buy the galaxy s7 edge battery
[Galaxy S6 General] nvrmndryo:
Yes that's what I said, [MENTION=5150743]Samsung Service[/MENTION] center.
[Galaxy S6 General] cavags5:
Hey mate how are you.

Tell me something,

Im thinking in buy a used s6 and do like you just to see is stays with good battery.

To change the battery you need to be rooted or could be in stock. ?
[Galaxy S6 General] Lucoso46:
You can stay on stock! Be carefull with s7 edge battery when is 100% calibrate the battery and it will go at 70% (maybe dunno 'cause i've the s7 flat one) after three/four cicles you should be pn the right way to get very good battery life
[Galaxy S6 General] Dexter_prog:
all in all, what's the best root app to boost battery? I'm no trying L speed
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
is it me or does the samsung galaxy s6 battery getting worse and worse? it doesnt matter any more which rom or kernel i flash i cant get it better then now even if i have a full black theme for amoled cant do any thing i think samsung do it on purpose to push us to s7 with every damn update its getting worse -.-
[Galaxy S6 General] Lucoso46:
Yeah, with every update battery life decrease and the stupid thing is that the initial release of marshmallow was very good for battery and now you can't downgrade to initial release because Samsung put a "block".

So with this Samsung pushes his users to buy another phone
[Galaxy S6 General] nvrmndryo:
Why u all on official rom then? Try any good custom roms.
[Galaxy S6 General] Lucoso46:
Alexis 7.5 + tn2009 kernel v 2.4
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
why discuss about battery life when we have AOD? I need to charge phone every day now, but AOD worthy
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
In term of battery life, this have been the worst device i have ever owned.
[Galaxy S6 General] Diaze:
Yeah..i think i m gonna go back to the z2..i really miss 2 days of battery life.
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
i use alexis rom to its a nice rom but still bad battery life with every kernel back in the days s6 had a very good better and i think yes samsung pushes users to newer devices and making the kernels and software bad maybe the software is running smooth but the battery is getting worse with every update they release and i think its on purpose to make us buy a new phone yeah thank you samsung to think about us :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S6 General] crixley:
Yeah I get 5 to 6 hours screen on time as well. I'm totally fine with that
[Galaxy S6 General] oae08:
Im having very bad battery life, maybe around 3hrs SOT however do you think if i replace my battery i cant get 5-6 hrs or its not worth it? Thx
[Galaxy S6 General] Edge330:
It depends how someone use phone. It's not a same thing playing Sudoku few hours per day (you can easily get 4+ hours) or most of time spend on social networks and surfing with 4G.

I'm so sick of the battery life on my girlfriends device, this was her first introduction to Android away from iphone and it's rubbish.

Please could someone recommend a ROM / kernel to flash that will improve the battery life from what we're currently getting?

Thanks,

Andy
[Galaxy S6 General] 350Rocket:
I installed xtrestolite v3.3 and it did improve the battery life noticeably from stock. Most of the time I only get around 3 hours screen on time but that's a long day of occasional use, sometimes 2 full days if I wasn't using it a lot. I have gotten over 5 hours when I used it as a speedometer for 2 hours + and lots of use, but that wasn't typical use for me.

With stock mm I got around 2 hours screen on time. I bought it used so I don't know what it was like new.
[Galaxy S6 General] elitman:
I will be buying iPhone 7 in the nextt few days. I got sick trying to figure out why is my S6 edge overheating and consuming battery due to Google Play Services. Maybe in another life once you grow up Android.

---------- Post added at 08:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:23 PM ----------

Tell her to go back to iPhone. I am gonna do the same.
[Galaxy S6 General] Maartendw:
Hi guys, lately I've bbeen getting ridiculously bad battery life, don't know what it could be... I'm running a stock phone.

100% --> 32% in 7h48m, with screen on time of 44 min

Android OS is the main battery drain.

Anyone has an idea what's going on here?

Thanks!
[Galaxy S6 General] Diaze:
Only wifi
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
every body have to know that samsung ****ing updates ruining our phones on purpose to push us to s7 to buy a newer phone they just killing our devices with there ****ty updates on purpose!!! its not the android version thats bad or somthing samsung is the problem to make our phones slow with every damn update !
[Galaxy S6 General] 350Rocket:
Here's my usage breakdown for today. Pretty typical. I'm on xtrestolite v3.3.1
[Galaxy S6 General] 350Rocket:
Screen on time
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
You have the famous Android OS bug...only solution for me was a custom rom
[Galaxy S6 General] Maartendw:
That's not good to hear... I''m reading that clearing the cache and doing a factory reset might help. I'm going to try that first...
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
Already tried that before, also tried flashing a firmware ( More than 3), nothing helped, tried a deepsleep.fix , a custom kernel..nothing. Now i'm running a custom rom all good
[Galaxy S6 General] DarkNate34:
You guys should really read my comments. Reinstalling the firmware through Samsung Smart Switch *should* fix the Android OS battery draining bug. I have two S6's in my possession, both had the bug, both have passed through the firmware wiping process, the bug is gone.

It's not limited to our devices, Nexus users have reported similar issues even on Nougat.
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
[MENTION=4681098]Diaze[/MENTION] Stock ROM ? If so which firmware please ?
[Galaxy S6 General] Diaze:
Unofficial xtreso lite 1.2.1 + nougat system UI. Stock kernel
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
Nice. Just flashed Xtrestolite 3.3.1 will see how it goes,thanks
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
its the same for me the latest bases of samsung are getting worse and worse with every update i litterly doing nothing only whatsapp al sensors are disabled only wifi is on the rest is off even sync is off and battery is draining so fast cant believe it damn.... just flash xtrolite rom 3.3.1 it has the best battery for the s6 right now its lilltle outdated but for that you get a nice battery the rest of the custom roms running the latest and worse bases so very bad battery life just run the xtrolite 3.3.1 best of all! better samasung is gonna fix this with nougat or i am buying a onplus 3t snapdragon and aosp roms , sick of samsung late updates and no new stuff so by by samsung for me and welcome one plus 3t
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
Exactly what i did, after trying lot of note 7 and A8 ports i finally came back to Xtrestolite 3.3.1 yesterday, who cares if its old it runs perfectly well. Stock is horrible and i think Samsung is doing this on purpose to force us to buy a new device
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
ofcourse they push us to buy a new device and i hope they fix somthing about the battery with the nougat update or i am out of here abd buying i OP3T
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
what's wrong with n7/a8 ports?
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
Nothing wrong, they run fine all good. But i missed the look of stock and speed of Xtrestolite, also based on my first cycle of charge, Xtrestolite have better battery life but i will wait for some days before judging. And a stock based ROM will always be more stable than a ported ROM,even tho Noble/A8 were perfect
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
If is difference, then it's so small or invisible. but a8/note ports looks better and have more features.
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
I know lol i tried all of them
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
so how you can stay on stock, when you tried a8mnite with grace, when performance the same?
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
Just want to share my battery life and its pretty good in standby mode and i do use greenify with out it it would have been 95% maybe less but with greenify pff damn 99% i think its pretty damn good in standby mode and turn to 99% just 3 seconds before i took the screenshot
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
Which ROM and kernel ?
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
ROM : AlexisRom 7.7 with stock kernel its in the aroma + Greenify 3.0 build 5 ''you have to install it by yourself''

http://xdaforums.com/galaxy-s6/development/alexis-rom-1-0-feel-game-sound-01-04-t3349944
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
This is so awesome ?
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
your welcome :good: was shocked when i saw this just didin believe it, that a galaxy s6 could do this :D just did it for fun because i know s6 suck in battery and did try ever single rom on xda for this rom but could not find any thing good so i did try it with greenify and latest alexis rom 7.7 for fun and results are like this and Merry Christmas for every one :D
[Galaxy S6 General] HowJesNo:
not sure if anyone has posted similar advice on battery saving but here goes.

i am sure you guys now about macrodroid. well i configured 2 macros to save some battery.

1. triggers: Screen Off, Day/Time Trigger (23:00 every day) / actions: Airplane Mode ON (constraint: Time of day 23:00-06:00), Batery Saver ON

2. triggers: Screen Unlocked / actions: Battery Saver Off, Airplane Mode Off (constraint: Airplane Mode Enabled)

You need to be rooted for this, so what it does is activates battery saver when screen is off and deactivates it when unlocked, also turns airplane when you sleep so 0% drain overnight.

will post photos later today.

sory if someone had similar idea and already posted.
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
one thing, app, which change settings (tasker, automateit or etc.) when change settings, use energy, so drain battery.
[Galaxy S6 General] dipanshu92:
On which ROM and Kernel?
[Galaxy S6 General] crixley:
That was stock with Arter.

I'm on twisted ROM and kernel right now and my battery life isn't nearly as good as that. Thinking about just going back to stock honestly, rooted and xposed, like I had before.
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
It doesnt have a huge impact on battery life, only 5-10% increase and that was on HD with noble rom when i tried it, with full HD almost no difference so dont get too excited lol
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
Wtf are you talking about ? Which numbers ? And why would i lie ? Do you think i'm 10 years old ? Go check on google see if it improve battery life, lol whats wrong with people these days. Im not the only one saying this btw, people tried this before and got very light improvement even in HD resolution. Funny how you talk to me like im lying, this is what happens when kids are allowed to sign up in xda, this website is diying day after day, damn.
[Galaxy S6 General] crixley:
Screen brightness yes, but this "changing the resolution" thing is BS, you can't change the inherent nature of the display..

You can get it to display in 1080p, but the screen will always be the same resolution, and thus an arbitrary change will have little to no impact.
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
You are almost right, in fact resolution change, i wasnt sure before but then i checked and yes it changes, but as you said it doesnt impact battery life, its very minor. I did lot of test while i was on noble rom,others did the same and even S7 owners with nougat tried but no "WOW" effect. That guy just dont want to understand lol
[Galaxy S6 General] crixley:
It changes how it is displaying, but the screen is still a 2k screen. It is like watching a 720p movie on a 1080p tv.

It is still a 1080p tv.

That was my point
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
True ?
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
I think you dont want to understand, read our last posts me and the other guy, also go read on google.
[Galaxy S6 General] crixley:
It is also inherently a 1080p display.

What you're trying to do to a 2k screen is not making it a 1080p screen, but is called "interpolation".

When we force the smartphone into 1080p resolution, we're making it put 2 million pixels in a room for 3.7 million pixels. This means the graphics unit has to stretch those 2m pixels into occupying space for 3.7m pixels, or the picture will look wonky.

You get a decent performance boost with negligible battery savings (extra 10 or 20 minutes? meh...)
[Galaxy S6 General] crixley:
So get a phone with a 1080p display, our whole point is that "changing the resolution" as you are imagining, is incorrect and not going to have the impact you think it would

Source - I'm an electrical engineer
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
Who said the S6 have good battery ? Who said the 2k screen isnt an overkill for the S6 ? You are talking nonsense dude
[Galaxy S6 General] crixley:
Meh, I use mine for gear vr and it is necessary there. If you don't like the resolution, get a new phone. I'm sure you could find someone to trade with you, on swappa or something like that.

I love this screen personally
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
Changing battery wont do anything, battery life on S6 is crap by default
[Galaxy S6 General] crixley:
lol I give up..

You're hopeless. If you don't like this phone, get a different one
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
I told you before he doesnt want to understand...i told you lol
[Galaxy S6 General] Lucoso46:
Changing resolution do nothing. I did it 10 times nothing happened.
[Galaxy S6 General] 350Rocket:
I think if your phone sits most of the day and is at 30% then you probably need to replace the battery.

I am sick and tired of the retarded battery life and I want to do something about it. I get like 2-3 hours SOT and i do watch a lot of YouTube, stream twitch and watch movies. Also I have Bluetooth and GPS enabled. I want at least 5-6 hours SOT, is it possible and with which ROM and setup can I achieve it? Currently unrooted and running stock 6.0.1

Also it drains battery like hell when not used over night like 10-15% so doze is not even working lol..
[Galaxy S6 General] nvrmndryo:
Ur getting good backup considering ur using gps and Bluetooth all the time.
[Galaxy S6 General] ZEROLEMON_OFFICIAL:
Sorry, you e-mail for a S6 edge battery case to review but we are searching the S6 battery case. So I think this is a mistake. :)
[Galaxy S6 General] khanvict90:
why dont you just turn off bluetooth and gps and use greenify 3.0 build 5 and donation :) and freeze every app and system app you dont use and its done :) overnight 1 % of battery use :)
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
Having Bluetooth and gps enabled will effect battery life. Getting 5-6 hours sot on a phone which has a capacity of 2550mah battery wise is only going to be achievable down to various tweaks and reduced usage.
[Galaxy S6 General] exivious:
smart network will be usefull for him too
[Galaxy S6 General] oSandmaNo:
Lol at those complaining with 3hr SOT. I get 1.5 hrs if I'm lucky! And with 7hrs of total use. The phone isn't even a year old. Battery stats show screen as the highest drain, with Android OS being second. My z3 got me 5 hrs SOT but the s6 camera and speaker is way better.
[Galaxy S6 General] hamer221:
What rom?
[Galaxy S6 General] exivious:
terminator
[Galaxy S6 General] 350Rocket:
I'm guessing you're on stock still? Mine was almost that bad until I rooted and installed xtrestolite v3.3. that basically doubled battery life.
[Galaxy S6 General] oSandmaNo:
Really? I'll give it a try. Never had a Samsung droid before, I hope there are no obstacles to obtain root and recovery :)
[Galaxy S6 General] 350Rocket:
It was pretty easy for me, I've done a ton of HTCs and nexus phones in the past. My last new phone was an LG g4 which I sold because it also had terrible battery life and it was not possible to root since it came with marshmallow.

Xtrastolite ROM v1.1 (newer one), stock kernel, this is an avarage usage.

WiFi, data (3G) always on, brightness 70% auto, whatsapp, gmail and instragram notification on.

Most of time swipe (facebook), whatsapp, chrome, instagram and few photos.

With playing some games like Sudoku SOT can be even higher.

Yes. But it s a bit hard to make the pattern work...it s just luck..

One time worked liek this : flash custom ui from 1.2.1 xtreso then flash the nougat ui.

On other rom was like .flash rom ,backup in twrp, flash nougat ui at this step it was getting the pattern bug so i restored my backup..to my surprise it kept the nougat ui and now the pattern bug was gone..
