The fact that you have not even read few old pages and tried to come and give your stupid advice which makes no sense is even bigger trolling. I have mentioned many times i am not rooted, but ofocurse this is the internet and you have a right to come and give an opinion which makes 0 sense. thanks indeed mr know it nothing. Ofcourse the issue is with the hardware and could be limited to one phone and hence not many talking bout it. But mr.smart i am a troll yes...because you have a keyboard to type :D

I used to mate, but i got the phone back to stock by factory reset, still the issue.

I took it to samsung service centre and the guy just plain refused to agree that it is a problem, rather telling me the phone has many sensors and your 1.5 - 2 hr SOT is expected depending on your usage. Sir..the processor is so fast, hence it takes up more battery. So i explained him calmly everything, he said ok let me chek it out. He went ahead and did a factory reset of the phone and gave it back to me saying, all your issues are solved now. thanks for buying our phone. WOW.

So i showed him again the same issue, how the phone stayed awake, then he told me he can't believe in Gsam as it is third party. Asked him if he has any other S6, let's test it and if the issue stays the same, i will be happy to stick to the phone. Then he said i will keep it for a day and check, ofcourse i am sure notihng is going to happen.

Guess will have to go ahead and root it now to figure out the culprit using wake lock detector. So much for a flagship.

LoLoLoL

Coming to an Internet forum asking for help, Then call people who try to help you "stupid". Well done....

Arguing with someone over the Internet is like taking part in the Special Olympics. Even if you win, you're still retarded.

As far as knowledge is concerned, the fact that you're scared of rooting shows where you are compared to me. And boy I know my stuff around here. Been buying and rooting every Galaxy Day 1 since the original S.

Moral of the Story : Never act oversmart on the Internet. Chances are you'll find someone who pwns you before you can spell Daddy.

Please don't reply and humiliate yourself further. We know you got a problem. Either imaginary or with a phone. Work with the manufacturer and get over it. Attempts to insult others on the Internet just portrays you like a spoilt entitled brat who didn't earn what he has.
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
You are the one who staretd it, and as for rooting i have had enough phones and have them rooted enough, please head to g2 thread if you want to know. The only reason i do not want to root is that my office emails do not work once the phone is detected as rooted. As again stop humiliating further and shooting yourself in feet when you know only half things :P

Though i had clearly told you that before, but which you did not recall.

anyway i am done with you mate, adieu!!!

Check wifi>more>always allow scanning is set to when wifi is on

Try turning gestures off.. location history off..sync off..

Disable facebook samsung push
[Galaxy S6 General] Hemant:
[MENTION=6019282]Aman[/MENTION] also check what's syncing under your google account. Seems that you may have your fit data syncing which might explain the pedometer issue. Don't know if it will help but check the google sync. Uncheck most things u dont need especially the fit, web albums etc
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
@B$ingh - Tried all that mate!!

[MENTION=230250]Hemant[/MENTION] - Did not have fit downloaded.

Anyway the phone is in service centre today, i will update you guys tomorrow.

or as i said worst case i will root using ping pong root and find out the wakelock culprit and see what i can do. Thanks for your input guys, just that this thing has got on my nerves now and is hampering the way i can use this superb phone.
[Galaxy S6 General] B$!ngh:
May be faulty device cuz my s6 doesnt even lose 2% at night with data on. Standby is very good on my device even at my work where signal is extremely low
[Galaxy S6 General] slimshaddy.:
I have this multi tasking issue. I am mostly on opera with just 1 tab open. Sometimes the screen turns off and when i open the page reloads ?

I use calculator or any other app, come back to opera and it reloads.

Is it the issue with android version or sucky s6 ram management ?

My phone's battery loses around 10% over night when on wifi.
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
Will test once i have the phone back.

Your battery loss is almost the same as mine, as i also lose anything between 8-10% nightly. I can still live with recharging the phone when ever i get a chance, as the camera which was the main reason to switch from G2 is phenomenal. I am just not able to understand the keep awake and that is driving me crazy, call me stupid but i want my gadgets to work perfectly.

---------- Post added at 05:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:44 PM ----------

ya mate i guess some sensor(most probably pedometer) is playing up, but the difficulty is to explain these things to Service centre guys, they are just not technically equipped or trained to handle one of incidents.

Guys if you could do me a favor and post some of your Gsam battery stats here, so i can show it to Service centre guys that other phones are not staying awake like this. Thanks!!
[Galaxy S6 General] slimshaddy.:
I just saw even my readings are 1 hour above. I disabled s health. Will add more ss tonight.

My device is awake for 25 min in 10 hrs

Pretty much ok I think
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
damn that is one awesome battery life you got mate, only 25% used in 10 hrs with 1+ hr of SOT, mind changing the phones with me :D
[Galaxy S6 General] B$!ngh:
Yeah I am consistently getting good battery life from begining. Although it is usually much better at my home.

This one is my workplace with 2 bars signal at max
[Galaxy S6 General] Funkym0nkey:
It is the WiFi that is the issue. Active Wi-Fi is killing the battery. So is 3g data consumption. When Wi-Fi is active and connected it eats up approx 20% battery and for some reason when WiFi is active, the held awake time is also in hours here.
[Galaxy S6 General] twisted_mind:
I notice after flashing BOE3 that the drain during Wifi ON has reduced significantly. Flashed it over the weekend and seemed good for 2 days straight up before i swapped the sim out into another phone. Try it.

BTW, the indian version doesn't have the option to turn off volte, right?

---------- Post added at 10:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:50 PM ----------

How intelligent. Throw back the same stuff i said back at me remixing it like Pritam....

Yeah being done with me is about all that you can do after all the needless name-calling to someone trying to help YOU.

Daddy's latest little toy gifted to me ain't workin.... Spoilt brat goes on to the interwebz all raged up, acting like the entitled One with a golden spoon up his you-know-what.
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
Hmmm ok, but i did try switching them both off as well. In my case held awake is not moving until the phone is in motion, if it is on my bed even after overnight it hardly increases by a minute or two. Overall loses 8-10% in those 10 hours or so.

Hopefully 5.1 will bring about some changes, i will get the phone back from service centre tomorrow(after hearing some funny explanation how everything is OK)

The other funny thing they did today, was looked at my phone and i had just three extra applications installed except stock..Gsam, touchdown and airwatch(for office mails)

Sir yeh app uninstall kar do sab theek ho jayega...I was like :good::good::good::good::good:
[Galaxy S6 General] Dpk1:
Hmm.. I see you have real issue with your S6 battery backup! I'm constantly getting decent battery backup on mine (S6).. more than 5hrs of screen on time with wifi on all the time (3G data on when out) in about 24hrs of moderate-heavy usage with about 20% battery left to spare.. screen brightness 25-30%, auto sync off, Samsung bloatware disabled, all stock (BOE3). Btw is your NFC always on? It's on by default, if so, try switching it off. Besides, people have already suggested you most things to conserve battery life. Screenshots attached below.
[Galaxy S6 General] vulcan4d:
I have the SM-G920I brand new telling me it ran out of space for apps after the 12th app I tried installing. The app "storage truth" tells me the /data partition is 1.9GB and full, with 30GB free. How much space do you guys have on your /data parition on your SM-G920I? This is odd.
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
So as expected Service center has returned me the phone without doing anything, he was showing me wake lock issues with Android on google and told me maybe that is the reason. I asked him if he can please give me in writing that 2 hour of SOT is acceptable with S6 and this is because of fast processor and many sensors. He obviously refused and kept telling me that phone has no issues.

So basically i am on my own, anyone got any contacts of higher up in samsung where i can escalate this issue, i will start with Facebook anyway.
[Galaxy S6 General] 50103:
May be we ppl should get an iPhone,just to piss off Samsung :D

Long time Android fan here.From S2 to S4 ,then Nexus 7.Lost my love for Android when I bought the Nexus 9(on day one) :D .

Frequent crashes,tab getting heated up pretty easily all those stuff.And finally HTC's awesome customer service.For a tier 1 phone manufacturer their a.s.s sucks big time.

Luckily I was able to score a DOA from HtC, and awesome Amazon refunded my amount.

Got an ipad Air2 the same day and am really glad.Does not heat up even a little and awesomely awesome battery life.Something they do clearly works.

You will need some time to get used to ios though.It is not as sophisticated as Android.But gets the job done.

Was thinking about buying an S6,but this episode with N9 has made me re-think Android :angel::angel:
[Galaxy S6 General] PG101:
Alright, you two.. :p Consider this post as a reminder of the rules and regulations at XDA. If you want to argue over who's got a bigger e-pen** please take it on PM or another forum.
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
The choice for me was the same, but i opted for S6 just for the fact that it is a better phone. What is disheartening is the way they treat there customers, the service centre is full of newbies, and the arrogance in there voice is off putting. Another thing say what may about apple is there customer service, it is def top notch. I found LG was half decent when i had the G2, def better then Samsung and HTC. Sony also was half decent.

I can sell this phone on OLX anyday with a bit of loss and go for iPhone but i will stick with this as the camera is just amazing, and it was bought specifically to click his pics. So will just keep a Power bank with me when i know i will not be near charger for sometime :P
[Galaxy S6 General] twisted_mind:
LoL

meanwhile my S6 continues to get better and better especially with BOE3. Sleeps like a baby and chomps through like a beast.
[Galaxy S6 General] B$!ngh:
Its better to root your phone and check the wakelocks.

If you are familiar with odin and flashing, you can again get your phone stock and unrooted, use google for flashing manuals if you want :thumbup:
[Galaxy S6 General] amankapoor4:
Ya man will do that, i am pretty good with rooting have been an android user for almost 4 years once i made the switch from iPhone 4. Except my last phone Asus Zenfone 2, which lasted with me for 6 days, i have pretty much rooted all my phones and always run custom roms.

The only problem i have is my office emails, which are an absolute must and they stop working as soon they detect phone is rooted. Need to see a work around to that somehow.

Thanks for your inputs, appreciate it.
[Galaxy S6 General] dipjyot:
Buy or not.

Hello friends. I am going to buy it in few coming days. I am using S4 now and very satisfacted with overall performance of it. I want some info about it. Is this phone overheats like my S4? Does it have an effective battery life as it has lower battery capecity (2550mah) campared to my S4 (2600 mah)? I think Camera and processores are great compared to My S4. Does it really charge more than 50% in 30 min. Of charging??

Mine does heat a little but not too much.

Battery life is good so far. And yeah it charges super fast

---------- Post added at 01:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:05 AM ----------

That's why I said after rooting find the wakelock culprit, and flash it again with stock rom using odin cuz that way flash counter can be set to zero again. Your office mail wont determine if it was rooted I guess.
[Galaxy S6 General] twisted_mind:
As good as the S4 was back in it's day, the S6 is clearly superior in all aspects. So if you're looking to be convinced, i'd say go for it.

Being all metal and glass, the heating is more pronounced as compared to plastic. That being said, i haven't found the S6 to get hot as such. Only warm. Sometimes when it's been in an AC environment and then you go out with it in the hot sun, you'd feel the device warmer than usual but i guess that's just physics.

Battery life by most reports as you might read is fantastic. Definitely longer than the S4. Plus the quickcharge takes care of juicing up in a jiffy. Just as an example, i'm able to go from say 50% to 100% in 40 minutes charging from a 2Amp powerbank.... the fastcharger included in the box is crazy fast too.

I was under the impression any flashing done via odin triggers the flash counter. Triangle Away which has sadly not been updated since the S4 days was the only solution....
[Galaxy S6 General] haxor:
As we all know that's due to glass on the both sides S6 is quite slippery so suggest me any good case which make it less slippery while holding in hand so can skip the chance of any mishapping thanks in advance :)
[Galaxy S6 General] valued17:
Which method you used to root ? please tell me.
[Galaxy S6 General] twisted_mind:
I've ordered a spigen ultra hybrid case from amazon... Used it on my iphone 6+ and hands down spigen have impressed.

I initially got stuck at boot after rooting using the root meant for G920I when the S6 launched. Flashed the G920T root (meant for TMobile) ever since on AOD1,AOE3 and now BOE3 and it works like a charm. Just remember to use Odin 3.10.6 (the latest) and load the root file in the BL field. In my case just extracting the odin executable and running it wasn't working so i extracted all the files that Odin comes in as a zip, into a folder on my Desktop and then ran it. That worked.... Also remember to flash the stock recovery.img extracted from your stock firmware post rooting to fix the wake bug.

Hit me up if you have any questions
[Galaxy S6 General] haxor:
So the spigen ultra hybrid case isn't slippery ?
[Galaxy S6 General] twisted_mind:
Going by my own experiences with the 6+ and reviews, No :)
[Galaxy S6 General] safepacket:
Hey how did you do it for BOE3 ? Ping pong root is not supported for this firmware for any s6 variants or did you do it with cf root ?

---------- Post added at 12:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:42 AM ----------

Folks my last samsung phone was s3 and after that I have been on HTC's M series.. and at the moment I am more familiar with HTC specific root stuff.I need some help with s6 root

How to root the current latest Indian firmware [G920IDVU1BOE3 ] w/o tripping knox bit?

1) Ping pong is not supported for our latest firmware and looks like the root vulnerability those folks were using is fixed by samsung with new firmware versions.. So unless they find another security bug this project is gonna be stagnant for newer versions. Lets suppose If I go back to a ping pong supported firmware and root , I will not be able to receive OTA's and hence I cannot enjoy newer stable firmware.

2) I can use CF root but then that will trip knox..

Are there any other options to achieve root with out tripping knox ? BTW how strict is samsung about tripped knox when it comes to warrenty in India ? Does one need to worry about this ?
[Galaxy S6 General] twisted_mind:
CF root. I've been using the root meant for G920T (tmobile) since Day 1 on my G920I....rooted AOD1,AOD9,AOE3,BOE3 all indian firmwares using this....

charger is only for S6 Edge" . Stupid people not even reading the attached bill in mail . Why dafuq they ask to attach the bill if they don't even read it .

Already said them the "S6 specials" section is missing , still they reply with the copy pasted steps which is useless .

Stupid people not even reading what the customer is saying .

[Galaxy S6 General] Hemant:
Just played with both s6 and edge models in white, black, and gold colours. Black and gold are fingerprint magnet with prints all over. White the finger prints are hard to see and looks the best imho.
[Galaxy S6 General] badelemental:
Well here in India Samsung online store only has gold option for 64gb model available to pre-order. No option for 128 gigs yet. So I had to settle with gold. Anyways ordered Ringke Fusion case that should keep it clean and well protected.
[Galaxy S6 General] Hemant:
Here in China and Hongkong all 3 colours are available. S6 with 32 GB only while edge both in 32 and 64.

One thing though the edge looks beautiful but just couldn't justify the usefulness and felt sharp in hand. S6 was much warmer and felt better. Another thing is that the s6 variant here comes with dual sim and I am not sure if there will enough custom roms.

Just for reference, Sammy is giving 8400 mah powerbank, screen protector and some goodies. While the edge comes with charging mat too.

Hi All, I have pre-ordered a black s6 64 GB from the only Samsung store in Royal Meenakshi Mall, Bangalore. First they informed me that only 32 GB black was available. But now, they have accepted for the 64 gb one as well. Expected date is 10th April +-2 days.

I pre-ordered mine (S6 32gb) from the nearby Samsung store and want some suggestions about a case that can protect the protruding camera lens. Thoughts?
[Galaxy S6 General] badelemental:
Buy it from in.mobilefun.com you will have to pay 220 extra for shipping and total cost will be around 1200-1300rs. As per my experience Ringke once are even better than Spigen. I have used them in the past (Note 4).

Get Ringke Fusion Case. It will protect and as it is a clear poly-carbonate back you can show off that shiney back of S6.
