I'm the US with Tmobile and got the G928TUVU2DPD1 build over OTA a few days ago. I didn't notice any battery improvement at first, in fact I even felt that my battery was draining faster than usual after the MM update, but after wiping the cache the battery is great now. I unplugged my phone from the charger last night around 10:15pm at 100%, and this morning when I wake up it was still at 98%. Phone is very zippy and smooth too.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] tymex928:
Before i had the G928FXXS2BPC1 and now i did several wipe caches and the battery drains.

have no Idea was this happen after an update .(
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] tymex928:
When i installed the stock rom over odin and didnt check the box with re-partation.

Maybe this can be the Problem?

But i thought its not so dangerous and leaved that box unchecked.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] nmm81:
After 3 days i can assume that this draining over night is normal is this new pd2 version: before in MM my phone drained normally 2-3% over night, now on this version it drains about 8-9%. Don't have any new app, nothing
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Die Bruine:
Still no improvement PB6/PD2

I'm on PB6/PD2 (Dutch). After 8 hours of which I used the phone for 23 minutes I'm down to 61%. That's worthless. Power consumption of 5% per hour during standby doesn't make any sense.

When I disable the radio, but leave WiFi and BT on, powerconsumption drops. Can't give percentages, forgot to write them down. But I will try a second time. Tomorrow I'll try a day without WiFi and the day after that another night without WiFi.

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] nmm81:
Maybe it fixes the mess they made on pd2 version lol
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] KillyTheTroll:
Oh ! no more bugs for me :) everything's perfectly fine now :) April security patch :) Battery improved it looks :)

Just one little stupid bug again and the same ..... I can go on playstore with 3G, 4G ... BUT impossible with wifi " try to reconnect ". I can go on playstore with 3G and after update my apps with wifi i can't understand why LOL !

thanks
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Sveneezy:
Amen.

How long did you use the phone? Screen on time?

Apps? Etc. .
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] tymex928:

Addiontional question:

You have the CSC Code: XEF?
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] KillyTheTroll:
Hi !

Yes this is the CSC code : XEF :)

I'm using my Google account, gmail, G+, hangouts, photos and video, youtube, badoo, twitter, antivirus ( ESET ), some network tools, VLC, shazam, Samsung apps etc ....

Why this little bug with playstore in wifi ? How can i fix it ?

I send 2 more screens for you :) ( i turn off the phone when i'm going to sleep :D )

thanks

Anyone else find that the sms app breaks on pd2 firmware??
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] tymex928:
Hi,

i have the same mixed apps.

Did you try to delete the playstore cache?

The problem with the battery is in the daytime. How long are you using? From 8 am, till ?

When i start around 8 am with 100% the battery drainabout 8% in the first hour. Later its getting better. But in the evening the battery is down.

Its confusing me that my phone shows: Produktcode-SMG925FZKAVIA ( and i have G928F), but Firmware is: G928FXX2SPC6 (Bootloader and PDA) and CSC: G928FTEF2BPC1 and Basisbandversion: G928FXXU2BPC2.

Very strange at all
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] tymex928:

Something's keeping your phone awake. Same happened to me AFTER 6.0.1.

I tried everything - the only thing that helped was 'always on' optimising all apps except essentials (clock!), Greenify (which I didn't need on Lollipop) and Package Disabler Pro to shut down everything I don't use.

It works - my line is much flatter - it just disturbs me to have to do all this to go back to battery life I already had.

The main problem it seems is the use of the mobile data radio (not wifi) by Google framework services.

Bugs the hell out of me.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] tymex928:
Are you on root that can you make the clock also "always" optimizing?

Which package disabler Pro are you using? make this one sense when i am not on root?

anyway i tried several times to flash with the XEF Version but every time i got the CSC code TPH. All tricks with wipe cache and factory reset doesnt work for me.

very very boring now
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] kolembo:
[emoji1] ! I know! Sooo frustrating!

I'm not on root - stock only.

The app is called 'App Disabler Pro' on playstore. It's only for Samsung and is excellent; so good in fact, that you have to be very careful which apps you disable! I just do the usual - Facebook (i use the browser) hangouts, etc. It's a paid app though.

To 'always optimise' go to battery, details and then you have to tap each app and select 'always optimising' for all apps EXCEPT what you really need, like clock.

It's good to do all of them except clock (for alarms) - they wake up anyway when you need them.

I'm finding 'Greenify' is fine by itself though, big difference. Make sure you 'auto hibernate' - you'll have to go to apps manager, go to more, select 'apps that appear in top', scroll to Greenify and tap twice; it's on by default but you have to switch it off and then on so that in Greenify you can switch on 'auto hibernate'.

Ah. It was VERY frustrating! Greenify is great for this particular update on the 6 edge +; try it.

again i cant believe this about the battery....
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] dengi_it:
Yesterday I made the OTA update to the UK release at the PE2 build. Today I noted that most countries had the same update in Sammobile

Maybe a "placebo effect" but today it seems the battery is experiencing a longer life! Let's see in the next days...

What about other users here??
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] xhaniGS2:
Yes, today morning i got an 19mb ota update, PE6 build is mine, 928C, cant tell abaut battery life but it seems little bit better with this update.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] cryptonx:
Got updated to PE6 today as well, Will report back if the horrible battery performance was fixed, although its a very small update (19.7mb).
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] MoHuToP:
PB6 is already here for my g928f! My battery life was great before, but whit this build is better! One tip before update - close all aps from memory, enable all aps in pdpro, clear cache partition in recovery, reboot to system and update, clear cache partition again, reboot and disable all bloatware again! In my opinion, the last update rocks! Good luck to all, my friends! ;)

PB6 was aroud 16,7 mb. My carrier is MTL.

any SM-G928A 6.01 ODIN files?
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] solid_shadow:
Hey everyone,

I updated to MM when the update first rolled out. Ever since then, my battery life has been absolutely ABYSMAL. I used to get around 15 hours with very heavy use on 5.01, but now I'm lucky to get 4 hours with moderate use on MM.

Im on the Verizon version of the S6 Edge + so any rooting related methods aint gonna work for me.

I'm giving greenify a try now since I seem to have some apps running in the background alot, but any other tips would be much appreciated.

[MENTION=7488287]solid_shadow[/MENTION]

Same! It was a real disappointment.

I use Greenify and Package Disabler Pro. Almost back to where to was with 5.1.1 stock.

Also, use your Samsung Battery saver and turn ALL your apps except clock/alarm, greenify and Disabler to always optimising.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Alex---1:
I used to hate Apple but the more Android updates, the more I am getting sick to death of it. I should not have to disable packages, use greenify or put power saving on just to get a phone to last over a day.

The latest iPhones use about 1% per hour in idle. I've never had one before but I'm getting really fed up with Android/Samsung now, seriously tempted to try one next.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] methoddon1:
so get yourself an IPhone and leave Android to grown-ups and stop spreading this garbage here in Android world...

FYI : my standby drop 0.25% per hour (Amplify,Greenify, PowerNap) and my SOT is incredible (7h).

[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Alex---1:
LOL grown ups? Garbage? I'm a software developer and write SDK's for android for a living - what's your experience with it?....Android is far behind when it comes to battery discipline. I'm no Apple fan boy - Far from it, but IOS is incredibly well optimised for the hardware it runs on - Android has always been known for lag, phone manufacturers over the last few years kept shoving faster chips and stupid amounts of RAM in to try and compensate for this and they've only just reached a point where it runs smooth.

It's Android FFS. you should not need 4GB of RAM and a beefy quad core to run it, it's a bloody mobile OS.

I have a dev tablet that only has 2GB, and a 1.8 quad core and it runs full blown windows FFS, and runs it well! Google need to stop focusing on collecting/tracking everyone's data secretly and work harder on their optimisation.

You get good results because you use Amplify,Greenify, PowerNap - You shouldn't have to!
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] methoddon1:
[MENTION=3703923]Alex---1[/MENTION]

my man, I couldn't care less what you do for a living... by "grown-ups" I didn't mean you as an infant or you lacking experience or knowledge, I meant, - stop wining. everybody and their mother by now know about tracking or optimization and thats the price we pay for Open Source, so if you don't think it has value to "you personally", stop wining and buy yourself an IPhone.

p. s. most of the best devs here are kids 17-24 (some are in school) and have absolutely no software or any other development background... doctors, students, plumbers, bus Drivers, so who cares if they can achieve more than those that do it for a living (like you). my cousin's husband had a contract with Samsung (over the Internet) in software development for 3 years... ask me if he knows anything about good ass rom modifications... the answer is No, he doesn't know jack sh*t. we used to talk a lot, I learned a lot from him but he learned more from me (because he owns an IPhone and never had Android).. makes you wonder.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] Alex---1:
If nobody ever complained about issues they were having then we would all have sh*t devices and nothing would ever progress in technology. Is that not the whole point of XDA anyway? Fixing problems??

I fail to see what the problem with my post was? So we should all just sit and say nothing about the terrible battery life of our phones?

I reflashed mine about a week ago, put no accounts or FB or anything on it, just stock apps. I lost 8% overnight - 8! WTF is this phone doing to use 8%. It's not just me, it's everyone on here, except the ones like yourself that have voided all warranty and worked hard on 3+ apps to reduce it. My girlfriends iPhone looses 2% over night bog standard with all her accounts on it.

I'm not saying the iPhone is better, but you have got the wonder what Google are doing that requires constant wake locks, or more so, what Apple are doing that allow theirs to do the same without the battery drain.
[Galaxy S6 Edge+ General] methoddon1:
there was nothing wrong with your post... there isn't "wrong" here, it's Android world, everything goes. it was a suggestion... switch OS.

yes, wakelocks is the #1 reason for Stanby drain. the drain that can be used (if tamed) to have more SOT and more Standby, but it's part of the system and there is nothing we can do about it without root access and changing Framework. maybe it's just me, because I've been doing it for a long time (longer than I'm registered on xda) and for me Stock Android only exists for 30 minutes after I bring the device from the store. but yes, I'm sure people want to have exactly what I or others here have but on Stock (and keep the warranty) but the reality is different. my daughter has an IPhone, she doesn't get more than a day with 4.5h sot and she keeps her brightness almost all the way down... i cant see anything on their screens as it is and with brightness down, I can't see sh*t. a buddy of mine got s7 edge and he gets a day with 8h SOT totally stock. I guess he can't complain. Android is not for everyone but one thing I'll agree with you is the fact that TODAY Android us at the point of perfection finally (Performance without Modifications) but if you want more standby, more SOT, you need to work on that.

p. s. regardless of the fact of optimization, battery etc, people will never be satisfied. you give them 2 days with 10h SOT, they'll say, - damn, I need 3 days worth 12h SOT.

do I wish for more? of course I do, but it is what it is, and if there is something I can do to improve, I'll do it. I use Xposed for many things besides controlling wakelocks and deep sleep so for me it's just necessary changes to get the desired result... f*ck iPhone!!!

Ah and of course you are lying when you say you get only 0,25% per our of drain battery and 7h SOT it's not probable and if it is, only with bright value in minimum which can see anything in a total dark room. Or perhaps you're are talking in plane mode lol

yeah, you're a stupid guy in fact. And I don't believe in your figures anyway. Bla bla bla but If I want I can also manipulate that figures, with low screen bright, plane mode etc. to present those graphics. But that's not a normal phone use besides the utilisation that you say you do, I don't believe, it's a lie, as we can see for instance when you say the phone operates in 4G and always we can see in printscreen in H+, it means in 3G that the battery drain is much more lower! Another thing of your speech is that you don't use the phone like it is, only for joking others, cause I didn't see any call time that's the most important thing in a mobile phone as it's the major battery drainer!!! ( 180 mA per hour)

The last thing that I can tell you little baby is, to buy a car you don't need to be a mechanic neither an mechanical engineer, you just need know driving. In mobiles phones, you must be sure that 99% of customers ( iOS, android and WM) aren't programmers and is for them that manufacturers do cell phones.

My point originally - Is that you should not have to do all the sh*t you do to yours to get the results you get.

Android + Samsung are not development phones any more. We learnt that when they originally updated the galaxy S3 firmware to have a locked bootloader. You now have to trip knox and invalidate any warranty to get the results you get and you shouldn't have to.

Why do you think the dev sections of these forums are so quiet now on Samsung devices? 3-4 years ago when everyone was using Galaxy S and S2's the forums were flooded with ROM's, you could flash one every day, can't do that now. Only the brave who risk wrecking a £600 phone do it.

All I'm saying is, if you can get those results, then so can Samsung/Google, but they don't - Because they're sh*tting about with unoptimised spyware.

Also, I almost rooted to get what you do, but I'm bloody glad I didn't as I now have an autofocus motor problem on mine, Sammy are fixing it for free on the weekend, had I done what you did, I'd have a £200+ bill to pay - Not cool.
