[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] ShermCraig:
Expert advise requested

I have included 2 screenshots detailing usage while in "Safe Mode". I did a video chat with Samsung yesterday, and they suggested I try safe-mode to rule out apps as my poor battery life cause. These screenshots clearly show that the issue is not related to apps. I'm wondering if I should go a "Samsung Experience Shop" (they have them in Best Buy) to have my phone re-flashed like they suggested I do if Safe Mode didn't prove helpful. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Clearly I can call T-Mobile and have the phone replaced, but I will likely receive a reconditioned device, not a new one, so that too is a factor. Any advice is appreciated!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] ShermCraig:
Gotcha - and agree. My issues seem to be more serious though (see previous post). Thanks!!
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] ShrekOpher:
Its doesn't look like screen usage is the issue. you only got 1 hr 33 min, but it didn't use a high percentage of your battery. It looks like android system used the most, what are the other items on that list before you get to screen. Most likely it is something you have syncing that is causing the drain. When you wake the device up and are using the screen, it looks like something else is pulling down the battery.

normal culprits:

#1 Facebook app

#2 Facebook messenger

****If the above 2 are not disabled or uninstalled I will just about guarantee that is your issue.

#3 email sync (Often work email accounts don't play nice with the stock email app, it may be constantly refreshing if you do not have it set to only refresh once and hour or so)

#4 Location (If you get poor cell signal/gps signal in your area leaving location on all the time can kill a battery. Many apps look for your location everytime you turn the phones screen on and often make it look like the screen is draining the batter, but really its like 15-20 apps trying to capture your location while you are using the device)

#5 Media scanning (If you have an EXSD card with TONS of GB of media on it, you first get a phone the media scanner will drain the battery until it gets your EXSD cataloged)

Last but not least the phone could be a lemon. but far more likely one of the above issues is causing your battery drain.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] ShermCraig:
Well, first of all, thanks for the response. I'll address each bullet point:

1) Being in "Safe Mode" that cannot be the issue (I think?) EDIT Facebook is still enabled in Safe Mode (FB Messenger is not) - interesting.

2) Same as 1

3) Not based on the usage details?

4) I have great signal strength in NYC

5) I do have 1,700+ photo's on my 200gb SD card, but no audio to speak of.

In Safe Mode, I should be getting exceptional battery life I believe as most everything is disabled except for core android apps. Thoughts?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] ShermCraig:
Here is some more detail on battery usage.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] ShrekOpher:
Yeah on a galaxy device Facebook is installed as a system app, so I am guessing it get full access even in safe mode. Facebook is a shady, dirt coded app, it's responsible for a huge number of issues on Android.

Also it hides some of its usage as the android OS, Since it is technically a system app. I'd start there.

Also as I suggested before use power saving mode.

Your Google Play services usage is high as well. You may want to make sure it is in the most current version. Check apk mirror for the latest. Sometimes Google play services gets hung updating.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] ShermCraig:
I can use power saving mode, but that doesn't help me pinpoint the problem. According the the Samsung rep I spoke to, this battery life is not what it should be, which is what I'm establishing. I will check the Google Play services version....
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] srod562:
Battery life is amazing on my S7 edge! Best decision getting this phone. Couldn't be happier. Coming from an LG G4 the difference is night and day.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Richieboy67:
Just curious, what is your display brightness set at?
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] ShermCraig:
Less than 40% - often much less, unless in direct sunlight.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] blackphnx:
My battery stats as of July 22
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Coderedpl:
Mine is definitely not as pretty.

Don't have all that much disabled, just the T-mobile stuff and some Samsung apps.

I'm starting to wonder whether it's the chrome browser draining my battery. I use that the most.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] nano303:
Lol that's actually pretty normal. You still have 35% of battery life. Should get you too 4hrs sot to 5. Normal folks getting 5+ have tweeks
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] jagman96:
Mine suck right now
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Knee Pads:
With every update my SOT decreases every time. Losing hope, faith, and my life.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] KAsp3rd:
Would one of you s7 owners be so kind as to inform me if Samsung included the Qualcomm IZat service with your device? I have the G5 and had the same battery drain issue that I had on the s7e, although I think I might have found a solution.

To check for the Qualcomm location service type the following

adb shell pm list packages | grep com.qualcomm.location

Let me know if its there.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Coderedpl:
Yep, found it using package disabler
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] KAsp3rd:
Disabling that service has greatly decreased my Android System usage in battery stats. Kernel was not going to deep sleep or doze due to it. Now I get less then 1% battery usage on standby. GPS still works as well.
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] Coderedpl:
My android system usage is at 17% now. I'll try it out and see how it goes

Edit: interestingly enough, I disabled that part and after a full charge, I checked android system. Up to 21%. My usage from earlier didn't change
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] KAsp3rd:
Could just be an issue on the G5 then... I would like to know if someone with higher usage on Android System tries
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] guaneet:
Struggling to get over 3 hours of SOT over 12 hours (my whole charge) no wake locks and very minimal amount of apps installed plus most bloat/useless features disabled

the struggle is real LOL
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions & Answer] srod562:
Here's my battery stats. Auto brightness on and most of the day it was on 75%brightness. Being outside, etc. Always on display active whole time. Maybe 30 mins of calls, a lil YouTube, clash of clans, lots of browser and instagram. I was getting pretty bad battery life as well and phone was heating up during day till I figured out google play services was taking more than 30% of my battery and not letting my phone go to sleep. I then went to the system app and restricted it from using backround data and that solved all my battery issues. I also cleared my apps cache and system cache as you should after system updates and all is good now and my phone last all day and then some. You may need to let google play services use backround data if your synching your Gmail all day or other Google Apps but for me it was a good trade off. I now have to activate GPS to upgrade the weather widget but turn it right off after it updates since google play services usually does that for you in the backround when GPS isn't on. Try these 3 things and your battery life will great improve. 1- clear apps cache in storage. 2- clear system cache in stock recovery. 3- restrict google play services from using backround data. Hope this helps...

I need to reset the value returned by the method TrafficStats.getMobileRxBytes() whenever I need to.

I know that the value this method returns, is cleared on device reboot.

Any ideias?
[Moto 360 2015] msteendahl:
I currently have a vzw galaxy note 5, and a Moto 360 2015.

I am so unhappy with my inability to control my phone from my watch...

biggest example is I can not turn on and off location from my watch.

I would like total control of all toggles from my watch to my phone.

I know my vzw galaxy will probably never be rootable, nor romable...

so if I were to buy a new phone on vzw, what is most likely to be able to get more functionality out of my watch?

are there roms that are watch friendly?

or am I living in a dream land thinking that the watch will ever be able to have control of the phone?
[Moto 360 2015] a.trX:
Hey there!

You should probably take a look at AutoWear. Its a Tasker plugin that leaves you with ENDLESS possibilities! (Which itself might rely heavily on root though. So that probably wont be possible for your VZW phone. Still worth a look though) It's quite impressive what can be done from your wrist!
[Moto 360 2015] Kinsman-UK:
I can control most toggles, including GPS, from my watch using Notification Toggle:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=de.j4velin.notificationToggle

For some tips on how to set it up, see Post 3 in my thread on 'How To Wake Your PC From Your Android Wear Device':

You can also do that with my rom

3) make changes to system/app folder remove some apps , which you want to remove

4) Then build rom from working folder

5) Choose option (1) to build

6) Name the rom and flash!!

impressive work

I have been browsing around trying to find a solution for my problem when I found your topic, I have galaxy I9300 ,obviously, and ever since upgrade to this official firmware (android 4.3) , I lost all openvpn support , my OPENVPN client keeps telling me there has been a failure to open TUN then shuts the connection down , you look like you have implemented some solution in your ROM, does that mean the openvpn problem is not just in my own phone?

could you be kind enough to help me with what I can do to restore openvpn components into my system, flashing your ROM is unfortunately not an option for me because the phone is for my mom , and she is too old to handle a new GUI on her mobile , the phone is rooted anyway, if you have some deep fixes to offer me I think I can implement them ,what elements did you add to the rom to make openvpn support

SPB Phone Suite is excellent for this !

[Verizon LG V10] kwcummins22:
I have tried the power + volume down and plug the usb into the pc and I get to the Modified recovery where you can go into safe mode or factory reset, etc. I have done it before but it was Kingo root that did it. It's not working because I can't get to usb debugging mode. I need to go back to stock. Thanks
[Verizon LG V10] mcbeat257:
If you are using the LGUP method, you do not need to even go into download mode. If you are on the Verizon bootlooped screen you should be able to flash it back to stock right then and there.

Also there is no real recovery method that you can use so you will have to wipe it completely clean unless you have backups.
[Verizon LG V10] kwcummins22:
LGup says phone 'unknown' so it won't work. It worked yesterday. Not sure what happened. Tried the battery pull method but it still doesn't work.
[Verizon LG V10] mcbeat257:
Does it go into the normal LGUP screen or is it something different?
[Verizon LG V10] kwcummins22:
fixed

i recopied the 'common' folder and it worked.malware detector may have deleted files? weird. up and working again. Thanks
[Verizon LG V10] zatanas33:
I had the same issue with my VS990. LGUP was not seeing the phone. Using the Recovery menu via power + volume down, I booted my phone into USB debugging mode. LGUP was then able to recognize my phone. I then chose the tot file, chose upgrade instead of refurbished, and clicked start. It auto restarted my phone into Download Mode and started the upgrade. If you can get the phone into USB debugging mode, you'll be set.
[Verizon LG V10] rustypie:
Plug a USB cable into your phone with your phone powered off, hold down on the Vol Up button and plug the USB cord into your computer. It should immediately boot into download mode. I have verified this works on my Verizon V10.
[Verizon LG V10] mcbeat257:
I just confirmed that works good job
