again? Where fans MM, let's talk now about "good battery life of MM" :D :D :D :D :D

[MENTION=3583785]wancohoff[/MENTION] you on MM? MM crap (or beta), stay with LP if you want good battery life without adventures.
[Galaxy S6 General] wancohoff:
yes i am on MM. is possible downgrade to LP without lost warranty? (knox 0x1)
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
of course. Download Odin, download oficial latest LP build and flash. Just, don't forget turnf off update, because samsung start push MM :eek:
[Galaxy S6 General] Diaze:
If you can stand lp sluggishnees:))
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:

you again :D :D :D :D

yea yea, better operating system, where you don't know "what can happen.............. during day time at work" :D :D :D

P.S. I don't see, don't saw any performance, sluggishness and etc between LP and MM!

I picked up my S6 last September and one charge will typically get me anywhere from 8-12 hours. This is with leaving my phone plugged in overnight pretty much every night, so I can't complain.
[Galaxy S6 General] scarchelli1:
This phone is maddening. Im laying in bed browsing amazon and watching it drop a % every 20 seconds. Was at 15% minutes ago, now at 5..4 actually. Wtf is happening? Google services is right under screen in batt stats. 2% now.

Plugged it into charger that is not for my phone because i dont have one here. Instantly went to 7%.
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
Guys believe me , you can try whatever you want , this phone will always have "average" battery life. 2550mah battery + Quad HD screen + Monster cpu , you can't except a 2 days of heavy usage , unless you debloat , underlock , undervolt , turn on airplane mode and brightness on 1%.
[Galaxy S6 General] erghetto:
If you have problem with MM it doesn't mean that it has to be bad for all.

Personally i am absolutely happy of it and of its battery.

Lollipop is s**t. Absolutely better MM.

So stay on lollipop and don't come every 2 or 3 days here, saying how much you love lollipop.

Everyone uses what likes more, but trying to convince people to use lollipop only because your phone has problem with marshmallow is ridiculous.

Come on..

Enjoy your Lollipop. Bye

Hi. This morning I flash Android 5.1.1 via Odin. (4 files with PIT) factory reset. I set my Google account and update all apps, nothing more. Problem with battery is the same as the android 6. per hour down 4% battery with turn off display... I think the problem is in some Google services from any version. and you are kept up to date on Android 5 and 6 as well.

edit: but i have problem also if use phone. tapatalk, chrome, facebook 15 minutes 5-8% down battery. (brightness manual 25%) is it normal?

after charged to 100% phone show me 10 hours remains. never more hours. is it normal ?
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
no, but we will see after some time, who is draining, or maybe your battery dead.
[Galaxy S6 General] wancohoff:
maybe.i have S6 since january. charging 2-3x per day ...
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:

[Galaxy S6 General] wancohoff:
I did so many times. and yesterday.
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
software looks like normal, first 2-3% after night for me to drops very fast, but later everything goes normal. You GSM signal low, but I don't think what this is problem. Try to use phone more, do not reboot. Later post usage.
[Galaxy S6 General] wancohoff:
OK. I can be switched on overnight data, GPS, NFC, and the battery will fall by only 3%. but when you leave it on the wifi, battery fall 30% or more. This is a problem (4% per hour). Second problem: I use a cell phone with a small brightness and battery falls very quickly. I now have 75% of 55 minutes SOT. only tapatalk, fb...(sorry i have bad english)
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
leave WIFI and GSM on, we need for statistic to see, how all apps works. NFC and etc turn off.
[Galaxy S6 General] wancohoff:
OK, I will write later.in 20% battery. thank you
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
you bought new phone? half year and about 500 charge times isn't so much.

o know one guy who had problem with his s6edge, so first time service changed battery, second time something from hardware and only then problem gone.
[Galaxy S6 General] gmajnkek:
Simply try a custom rom,will probably solve your battery drain issue.

[Galaxy S6 General] wancohoff:
if custom rom do not help. i lose warranty. then I can not claim.
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
custom rom will not help, phone should -+ work.
[Galaxy S6 General] gmajnkek:
So make a factory reset, make 2 cycles of charging your phone to 100%. If this wont help take it to service.

[Galaxy S6 General] theronlas:
What sort of Wifi? I have massive drain on work wifi (pretty similar to that) because of aggressive authentication and encryption, for home wifi drain is much lower (standard WAP2, work uses more sophisticated cisco gear).

Could it be that?

Android system drain too much battery

hello to everybody.

I was reading the past messages and i saw a lot of people that reach a lot of SOT (also 4/5 h). I can't reach neither 3h, but always about 2.5h in 15/17h with mostly whatsapp, web browsing and facebook (no games). It's a little bit frustrating. I've installed Gsam to try to understand of there were something wrong. In particular i see that "android system" is one of the most drain battery voice in the statistics, near to the screen consumption. I've also recharged the s6 100% and i leave it all night with wifi, mobile data and bluetooth on (i've a pebble time always connected) and it drains 8% in 7 hours with a little bit more than 1h of wakelock (i've to say that whatsapp have backupped 30MB of data in the night on drive). In this moment i've 73%of battery, 47 min of screen, 1:36 h wakelock, 2% bluetooth. In app usage (26%) i've android system 10% and kernel 5%, then facebook 2% and whatsapp 1%. Do you think that is all normal?

S6 all stock (i've only change some fw, but by odin, so all original and no root) with gps and nfc always off, sync on (2 email account)google now on, s-healt on.

Thanks for your help!
[Galaxy S6 General] gmajnkek:
Do you need s-healt and google now? Well try disabling wifi scan always on. Also you can remove the facebook app and use facebook via web browser. Check your sync if there is some account that didnt sync correctly (this did drain my battery some times). Can you make some screenshots and post it here?

greets
[Galaxy S6 General] wancohoff:
paulyz: Hi. Yesterday I joined a new WiFi router. Battery consumption during sleep is gone. I have 3hours 40 minutes on screen time. 18 hours from last full charged. Overnight (8hours) consumed 8% on wifi.

how is it possible that the battery consumes a wifi router?
[Galaxy S6 General] blacktomcat:
yes, i use both google now and s-healt. In your opinion, they influence the android system % consumption? because microphone and motion sensor doesn't seem to be in the "packages involved" in "android system". You suggest to unistall facebook app also if it drain only 2% ? i'll post screenshots this evening, whit the full day statistic (also because now i can't upload photos). All sync seems to be ok, i've also disabled some google apps (hangout, play music, play books ecc except music and games).

My intent is to reduce the android system consumption that i think is too high (today is a little bit higher because it was the only battery drain's cause during the 7h of the night)
[Galaxy S6 General] gmajnkek:
If you were rooted you could use some great apps like wakelock detector and better battery stats to see what is draining your battery. Two awsome apps.
[Galaxy S6 General] blacktomcat:
yes, but in this way i will lose warranty. And i prefer to keep it. i've it only since feb 2016
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
Nice to hear what you found a problem :good:

Maybe router drooped connection every couple minutes and phone reconnects again (you don't see that) and you get ON/OFF, ON/OFF............

I had (not with with s6) with router problem too, what after a couple minutes a phone stops receiving data ( a phone show what connected to wifi), changed wifi to new one (same model) and everything was back to normal. Computer worked with both routers good.
[Galaxy S6 General] wancohoff:
I hope it will work without problems. Thank you for your help and advice. If the problem, I will write.
[Galaxy S6 General] blacktomcat:
here you are the Gsam screens. Today it's a very awful battery performace, but i have to say that i always charge the phone all night long, only this night i leave it without charge just to see how mach battery it drain ( so in the statistic consider 7h - 8% battery drain with unused phone).

In my opinion, the wakelock and android system seems to be a little bit too high...
[Galaxy S6 General] npzinho:
I changed my S5 for S6 and sincerely I am repenting for this screen on time horrible.

I'm thinking in exchange for a 2016 Galaxy A5 and A7 2016 because I saw better results, each with 4h: 45min with 50% remaining battery on wifi.
[Galaxy S6 General] Soufiansky:
I had the A5 2016 before the S6 , performance wise there is no comparaison at all , the A5 isnt even close , the S6 is a powerhorse and is the fastest phone i ever had. Screen on the A5 is amazing , it's 1080p but there no big difference between it and the S6 , but still the S6 screen is i would say 40% better , build quality the A5 , much better in hand and it feels very solid. Camera , no doubt the S6 is still one of the best photophones until now , and last battery life which is the strongest point for the A5 , i always got 2 days battery life with heavy usage including gaming , the S6 is the worst android device i ever had in term of battery.

Hope it helps.
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
A5 has a larger battery(2900mah), lower resolution screen and a mid range cpu. It will defo have better battery life than the s6, the a7 has a 3300mah battery so it too will have better battery. They defo should have had at least a 3000mah battery in the s6.
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
wit MM normal usage
[Galaxy S6 General] blacktomcat:
it would be nice to know by the users who get 5h and more of SOT with all stock how they can reach this performaces
[Galaxy S6 General] gmajnkek:
I dont know who can get 5h SOT with full stock. So this probably means no wifi, no data connection,.. Probably using a brick instead of a smart phone. I get 5h sot with tyrannus, wifi and sync always on. At this moment i am 4h+ sot and still have 27% left.

blacktomcat are you on latest FW, did you made a factory reset after updating your FW?
[Galaxy S6 General] Diaze:
5h on wifi it s easy to get man.
[Galaxy S6 General] paulyz:
turn off everything except wifi, lower brightness to lowest, do not play, but watch movie or etc and without problems you will make 5h-6h or more SOT.
[Galaxy S6 General] gmajnkek:
Not on fully stock MM
[Galaxy S6 General] blacktomcat:
tyrannus is a custom rom? i don't feel to lose warranty, damn samsung and his knox. With my old galaxy nexus i had change a lot of custom rom.

yes i've the last wind rom (italian carrier) but i'm thinking to mount the no brand ita just for a little problem at the light sensor that at maximum sunlight get screen flickering

maybe, but with only 9/10h total time
[Galaxy S6 General] gmajnkek:
Yes Tyrannus is a custom rom made by [MENTION=6086964]frenkowski[/MENTION] (italian guy) :)

You could try some other stock rom, download it from sammobile. Maybe this one from NL (t-mobile) its from 28.6.2016: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/download/76583/G920FXXU3DPFB_G920FDNX3DPF2_TNL/

just flash it via Odin.

[Galaxy S6 General] blacktomcat:
it's a suggestion to move to p9 lite? LOL

What else?

I am coming from S5 and Dual will be a good thing to me too.
[Galaxy S6 General] sofir786:
Both the a5 and a7 run the snapdragon 615 chipset, it's a midrange well just less than midrange cpu, the a5 only has 2gb ram but the a7 has 3gb. The camera department is 13 megapixel back and 5 megapixel front, from what I've read on gsmarena, there not as good as the s6, then again the s6 still has one of the best cameras to this day. There are other things but they aren't big.
[Galaxy S6 General] npzinho:
I know I am losing in processor and camera. But I am preffer battery than performance.

And I am asking about on software functions like Miracast and other things.

A s7 edge battery in a Galaxy s6. I didn't try it myself yet, but sure as hell I will. The only problem is the back glass doesn't fit anymore, but is something about 1 millimitre

http://www.htcmania.com/showthread.php?t=1155869&page=10
[Galaxy S6 General] Lucoso46:
I think a cover is a good idea haha
[Galaxy S6 General] npzinho:
Maybe from s7 is better for fit?
[Galaxy S6 General] Lucoso46:
Yes it will fit but even the s7 battery is 1 mm thicker than the battery of the s6.. so if you remove the wireless charging e nfc parts it will fit perfectly.

Also there is a problem.

Battery last as the battery of S6 but the 1% is infinite.

So i think we need a kernel or a custom rom to recognize the phone as a s7 with the battery of 3000 mAh and the right voltage.. noble rom for example.. if i will buy the battery i will you know how it goes

[Galaxy S6 General] tuk1maar:
Flash one of the first ever released stock ROM to your phone and enjoy more than DOUBLE that SOT ;) Please test this guys! I'm from the S7 Edge section and we had this same problem happen to us too!

Personal experience:

I own an S7 Edge now and we too have the same issue as is apparant on the S6. With the S7 Edge on the first 4 stock ROM's, everyone got 8-9H SOT over 2 full days. With newer updates, everyone suddenly got 5-6H SOT over 1 day. On the S7 edge forum, people decided to downgrade to one of the first firmwares and I did so too. All of us are enjoying the amazing SOT again which we had when we just bought the phone ;)

I did this back in the days too with my S6! The first 2 weeks I had my S6 I was getting ridicilous SOT of up to 8 hours on auto-brightness with on only WiFi and mostly continuous usage (no video). After many updates I ended up with ~3H SOT over a full day. That's why I decided to downgrade and to NEVER update the phone again.

I added an screenshot to what kind of battery life I am getting with heavy usage on high brightness with no tweaks! Now go check the S7 Edge forum and go to the battery life topic. Go watch at how many people complain about how bad their battery life is after updating! So try downgrading your phone! I myself am using the 3rd update ever released on my S7 Edge (there has been over 15 updates as of now...)
[Galaxy S6 General] Diaze:
Yep that s 100% true. I m always getting better sot on older fw s ..sot decrease by every update you do

I didn't saw good battery life on MM, from first release in March MM battery life was worse than LP
[Galaxy S6 General] tuk1maar:
If that is possible, then do that! Report back with results after 2-3 battery cycles ;)

I don't own an S6 anymore, so I can't do the testing :/

After finding the latest updated ROM with good battery life (getting easily 6H SOT), then report it too. On the S7 Edge forum, developers are actually basing their ROM now on the older firmwares due to newer firmwares having bad battery life, just like what happend with the S6.
