it's un-rooted, on nougat of course. i am always on 2G only cell mode, wifi always on whenever i'm at work and home (with wifi inactive mode on when screen is off), at work- brightness is set to Auto with AOD on, at home, brightness is set to about 20% AOD off, i disabled all 3 animation options found in the dev mode. i also disabled a few core apps, no weather widget. if you can msg. me i think i can share the scrnshot.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] matrix009:
But only the changes really increase battery life? I'm set a dark theme, i have all' disable, edge, pannel, always. My problem is when the display is on. I Think i do 2.50 or 3 minute for 1%. The battery is great first 50%. From 100% and 50% i get 2h and 20. After 50% the % drops scary. Pls send me mp with all' change. Thanks
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] rizwan312:
i purchased the device used, 2months ago; nougat was already there with a factory reset of course. after receiving the last software update, i did clear the app cache. i disabled all unnecessary apps (the ones i couldn't uninstall), the doze mode really helps during my 5-6hrs of sleep time where in the morning i see only 5-6% battery drain. i don't use fb, only messenger and viber. i do charge it with the original 3pin samsung fast charger. but i didn't get the usb charging cable in the box so i bought a good quality usb cable. i set the default scrn resolution to FHD, not quad. i don't play games but do watch a few youtube clips, take a few shots, browse a little, a few calls n sms in a day, nothing is syncing at the back- it's always set to 'on demand' sync. as soon as my post number hits, i will be able to share detail screenshot here. oh by the way, i'm on stock samsung theme, no extra launcher installed either. all vibrations are off.

Hi! I'm using SM-G935FD version, and my battery is all crap (sorry) after I updated to Nougat. The Android System & OS are eating up my battery. My SOT is only 3-4 hours with occasional mobile data & wifi. Do you think I should downgrade to Marshmallow or just do factory reset first? I also tried resetting my app preferences but it doesn't really do it. Any advice?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] rizwan312:
i would not suggest you to go back to marshmallow just as yet. pls do try a factory reset and app cache clear and all other things i have done (my previous posts here). resetting app pref. is not the same as clearing app cache if i'm not mistaken. did you do all that i've done and wrote in my last 3 replies? i know everyone's phone usage is different and i am not a power/heavy user. but i know for a fact that you should get 4+ hours of SOT on 935FD. by the way, from time to time, do tap on the Device Maintenance app and clear up things in there.

check it out guys.. .

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Dixlack:
Why bother having $$$ phone with WQHD capability and still downres the screen to FHD? Yeah, 4-5 hours SOT is not enough for me because I got 7-9 hours of SOT in Marshmallow.

Why would you not suggest to go back to Marshmallow if I may ask?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] rizwan312:
the part i didn't mention and left out- try everything possible and imaginable with S7 edge on nougat to get the best n most SOT out of it. if still unsatisfied, obviously i personally can suggest to go back to MM. then again, i heard about weird issues with something going back. I too had it with my previous device Lg G3 going back to Lollipop from MM. for me, i can live simply fine with a FHD display, the difference is not that stark in my eyes. my reason for getting this device was- aesthetics incl. curved display, brilliant camera, superb battery life and fluidity in terms of usability.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] konsolos77:
UP ok stock What would you do to get this screen? ?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] rizwan312:
now, this is a new record for me- a SOT of 9 and half+ hours... the only thing left for me to try is to see if i can hit the golden nugget of 10Hrs of SOT.

Guys so the battery went good again? Do u recommend me to get a s7 edge? I had the flat one 2 months ago and I had to sell the phone, the battery was very poor
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] rizwan312:
if my last SOT reporting wasn't enough, check this one out. i do believe i have pushed the ultimate limit of S7Edge
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] vchristod84:
How the heck did that happen????
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] rizwan312:
lol.. pls do check my previous posts and SOT screenshots. I explained details of what i did and how i use my phone. ever since, all i did was, de-bloat my phone as much as i could. previously, i accidentally touched the 'Device Security' option in Device Maintenance. That used to hog a good amount of RAM. After de-bloating, it's now set to 'Disabled'. I'm not sure if this impacts batt. life but that's what it is with me now. Note- during this epic SOT run, i have NEVER turned on batt. saving mode. the phone just powered off at 12H 25min. obviously i couldn't take that screenshot.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] johnx818:
Just recently updated to Superman Nougat after putting it off for awhile. Good ROM and battery life after some tracking and adjustments with wakelock detector, BBS, and greenify.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Rocklee99:
Im not sure how everyone gets great battery, Ive turned off location and nfc, wifi scanning, among many other things. I even used a package disabler for a while, removed fb and yet...I still get about 2-3 SOT. I even wiped my phone about a month ago, reset permissions...Idk what else I can do but im having no luck getting the battery to run very long on this phone...anyone might have a suggestion?

I dont want to blame Nougat, but I honestly have thought of everything (as far as I know)...is there a way to monitor battery stats, even though im not rooted on 7.0?

an example of my battery life rn would be 33min SOT at 78% battery...(I should also note I have the sad Qualcomm processor)
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Sparkynis:
Guys my settings and SOT

You have my settings in pics... rom is superman2.6.0 kernel notorius 1.8.1...

No gaming but havy usage with videos, 4g/ wifi .. camera.. 9gag.. face...

50% of time on high brightness

Usualy around 6.30_7h sot .. 35+h standby
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] konsolos77:
i think the amp is a little high ,how did you make the adjustment
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Eezay:
I have the same problem. Also wiped my phone a few weeks ago.

At the beginning i could use my phone for 2 days with moderate use. Now it won't last me a day.

My usage hasn't changed, but now i'm only getting 2-3 hours sot. Package disabler doesn't help at all....

I'm starting to think about samsungs rubbish hardware compared to my old htc one m8, working fine for over 3.5 years.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Sparkynis:
Amp?? You mean voltage? If so.. in mptweaks.. undervolted stock frequencies..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Eezay:
An average day. Light usage. Netflix only to stream to my Chromecast.

Mostly on 2G in the office and with WiFi on

This battery life is horrible. Can someone give any tips how to solve this?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Rocklee99:
Okay, took me a while to understand something I've read a few times, but if you go into Apps and in the three dot menu hit "Reset app preferences" it could alleviate some issues with battery, at least with Android System using up some battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] johnx818:
Decided to go with a more stock ROM and installed Superstock ROM with superstock kernel. For some reason I had problems mounting system as RW with the stock kernel. This is providing better battery life than Superman ROM. Mostly web browsing, social media, and theming. Also tweaked it a bit to provide better deep sleep.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] matrix009:
Hello guys. put the results I got with various optimizations. I used the phone two days intensively with 40% of the time 4g and the rest Wi-Fi. the rom is stock and also the kernel.

how can you see what apps are sucking the battery, are you not on Nougat?

Since upgrading my Google play services I've been having insanely bad SOT. Anyone having issues with this?

Looking into it, it's maxing out the larger CPU cores, however 2 of them are offline due to hotplugging. I've solved this by uninstalling the latest version however Gmail will not operate without upgrading to this buggy update.

Tried disabling Google and Samsung auto backup, putting phone in airplane mode, turning off location services, I have tried everything to get around this.

Phone gets extremely hot to touch (75 degrees odd according to mtweaks).
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] izephyr:
I think you have messed up your system somehow. Try entering safe mode and see if you have the problem or not. If you have the same problem even in safe mode, you should hard/soft reset your phone. To enter safe mode, you may follow this procedure:

"Turn the device off.

Press and hold the Power key past the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge screen.

When "SAMSUNG" appears on the screen, release the Power key.

Immediately after releasing the Power key, press and hold the Volume down key.

Continue to hold the Volume down key until the device finishes restarting.

Safe mode will display in the bottom left corner of the screen.

Release the Volume down key when you see Safe Mode."

I am getting more than 6-7 hours SOT, 20+ hours of standby. Actually, my idle battery drain is about 0.7-1.5% per hour based on network conditions and movement. on my S7 edge.

My system is heavily modded, and I am a heavy user (except I don't play games a lot). Phone, Hangouts, Browsing, Teamviewer, Remote Desktop, Youtube and a little gameplay. I have location on to battery savings mode and google location history turned on and mostly on 3G (I'm so sad that I don't have 4G available yet).

I am sorry I cannot share screenshots right now as I charge in between. If I get a full discharge, I will share battery logs.

I am on Pre-ordered Exynos (using since April 2016), Superman Rom, 2.8 N, NOTORIOUS-Kernel 1.9.2, Greenefied a bit, Undervolted System with a lot of xposed goodies.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Timsgo:
Am I the only one with poor battery life after around ~8 months of having this phone in hand?

Stock ROM 7.0

Stock CPU/GPU Speeds

BT only half of the time is ON, doesn't affect much the battery life tho in this case tho even if it's off.

1/3 brightness all the time

WI-FI on all the time

I have NEVER used fast charging on this phone.

No matter what I do, I can only always get 3-4h of SOT max, however it's very hard for me to see 4h of SOT on this phone..
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] jameskunst:
Try clearing cache partition with recovery

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] bambam1978:

Some sort of relief, that I'm not alone with this problem. Hope clear cache will help with this.

Well, then I guess there are bad wakelocks draining your battery.

I used to have an annoying phone wakelock, which was 'RILJ0'. I had to root my phone and block it through an app called WakeBlock. I don't think there's another way of doing so.

[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] lilliput222:
i personally feel that samsung do this intentionally with the help of updates so that people could to their new devices. At initial period of launch 1-1.5 year they always have good battery life but suddenly it become worse .Remember galaxy note 2 , how impressive battery life it had when it was 1st launched and later on how bad it became
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Extreemator:
install for example superman rom (or any s7 stock rom so it's stable) with full wipe. or full stock via odin, really doesn't matter.

make a titanium backup of selected apps if you need.

I replaced the battery and I am getting 10 hours sot with light use(if in continious use, standby 1.1% per hour average). if you still have issues maybe battery has diminished. check in accubattery how much capacity is left, full deplete and charge a couple of times to see how much Mah is left.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] jshamlet:
Nope, it's all devices. After a couple of years, and a few hundred charging cycles, they all go to crap. Nearly every device I have traded up from was replaced due to battery issues - all about 2 years old.
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] Timsgo:
yeah right, the problem is, that my device ain't even full 10 months old yet. So there is definitely something very wrong with this device.

Here are my wakelocks + my SoT which is quite confusing, since everytime it's way lower than the decon wakelock. Can anyone actually help me with it? What can I do in this situation with this informations?
[Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Real Life Review] jshamlet:
Your biggest offender represents partial wakelocks, which are requested by non-system apps. You might want to peruse what you have installed, as something is keeping your phone awake way too much. If you are rooted, better battery stats can get what you need to track down which specific app is the culprit. Otherwise, disable/uninstall one by one until you find it.

I'm not sure what you have installed, but when I dropped all the social media apps and started creating links to websites instead my battery usage plummeted. On the other hand, now Firefox shows up as using 50% or more of the battery...
