I've disabled all of knox, secure folder, all of bixby, ant radio, all the t-mobile bloat, all the edge panels except for apps edge, email, device unlock, samsung internet, briefing, android pay and photos. BK Disabler has one whole heading titled bloat and all of that you are able to safely disable. Some of what I disabled you may use, just be careful as one thing you disable may be needed by another app then you need to figure out which one it was.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] Monkey Chops:
Turns out there were two problems, one account wasn't syncing properly, so had to completely delete it and re-add it. I also had to clear the cache and data for the google play services. It was only after rebooting that this was fixed. Battery liufe much better, but still not as good as my S8+.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] cal3thousand:
I don't really see the point of buying a smartphone and shutting off all the 'smart' things for the sake of not plugging in.

For me, I don't charge overnight as lithium-polymer batteries prefer to stay outside of the upper SOC. My phone sits by my beside, with wifi-on and AOD. I usually go to bed with about 40% and wake to about 30%.

30 minutes on the charger at that point gets it to a useful 80% and that usually is done on my commute. I may also put the phone on the charger occasionally throughout the day (1 more 30 minutes session) so I can leave work with it at about 80% charge.

So, I charge just about 1 hour per day and my phone battery never reaches 4.35v. I'll likely have a strong battery still 2 years later with this charge profile. Samsung already claims 95% capacity with normal charging and use patterns. My phone has a great chance of meeting those claims.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] Limeybastard:
You charge to 80% from what base line figure?

Also do you slow charge it?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] cal3thousand:
It depends on what's convenient to me. I usually drive or sit on a bus twice a day totaling over 1.5 hours which is ample time. Charging in the fastest charging segments of the battery makes it more time efficient for me. But I generally want to keep it above 30% for usability-sake. The upper end generally depends on timing. I'll go up as high as 95%, but tend to stick to 80-85% and pull it off. It's dreadfully slow from 85% and up.

Turn off AOD
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] gtaadicto92:
AOD is important to me so it is not worth turning it off.

By the way, over the last days i have seen that "Android OS" has been eating more battery % than Screen. SOT has gotten worse. Does anyone know why?

Is this normal? Can anyone help me?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] jason504:
No that is not normal at all something is wrong. Try looking at your sync accounts

But it stays on, its sucking batteries standby time.

And i turn off Wifi scaning and Smart Switch.

What seems the problem?

Anyone Ideas?

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] j_hansen:
With aod/WiFi and also mobile data on mine use 1% per hour roughly, maybe a little less
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] Semantics:
According to Accubattery my phone uses 0.8% per hour while I'm sleeping. I do have AoD set to custom so it's off while I sleep but BT is running all night. Ever since I deleted the Facebook app and started using the mobile site, my battery has improved immensely, both during idle and in use.

i turn off mobile data and gps and wifi and close apps and etc clear ram and go to sleep for 7hrs and as AOD is set for turnoff at night 12Am to 7PM i go exactly at that time. so i wake morning with 99% of battery.

then play music for 1hr and again play music 1hr with Bluetooth then the charge i can see is 92%.

then i start to play games for 1hr then i see battery for 77%.

then i keep the phone stand by with AOD running continuously with mobile data turned on and here and there i will be getting messages and led lights keep on turning on by fb or whats app or email i keep on using the device here and there (10am to 3pm) as total time is kept for 2hrs usage and attending calls. i see the battery come for 67%.

then i play 1hr music via Bluetooth and again and i see battery to 60%.

finally reach home with 59% and then turn on wifi and start to play games for 1hr and see battery drops to 44%.

then be using whats app and Instagram and fb and messenger for 2hrs and i see a drop to 29% where i put the phone for charge now...!

total time usage for me 1+1+1+6+1+1+2=13HRS i can get my battery life easily (still battery left with 29% after 13hrs usage also)

night to morning i loose only 1% battery
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] liggerz87:
I did check the other day I lost 3 percent
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] gaeilge:
I had a great battery life until 3 days ago. Suddenly Google Play Services are on the top of battery wasters. No backup configured, syncing only gmail (even though sync is mostly disabled). Data cleaning, restart, nothing helped. Now i turned off gmail sync as well and we'll see. Anyway, it drains my battery only while on mobile data.

For first month of usage I barely noticed play services in battery stats and nothing extraordinary happened during last days. I have "gps" version updated November 9th 2017 so it's no the case - problem started week later. Haven't been updating any app right before the problem started and haven't been using any new apps - everything was as usual.

I had the same issue with Note4 since Android 6.0.1 and never got rid of it...
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] jason504:
I just shut off all sync I will check all that stuff when I go into the app.But I know for some people they need to know when a email comes through and all that stuff.

Getting horrible battery drian this is with everything turned off including AOD, mobile reception is full bars
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] gaeilge:
Not working.

Charged, was working on WiFi for 1h 15m - no google play services in stats, battery @85%.

Switched to mobile data and "gps" appeared shortly after. I continued to work on mobile data for an hour, battery @65%. In the morning "gps" was already on second place in stats, 1% less than screen. Third place Android OS...

Today I was using phone on mobile data only, just to see. Currently it's 1d 2h 50m since full charge and I'm on 30% with 3h 45m SOT.

Screen 13%, 515mAh

"GPS" 11%, 438 mAh (3h 2m total time)

Android OS 8%, 311 mAh (1h 27m total time).

One day, almost 4hrs SOT, I can't complain. But just to compare, before I was getting:

Total 2d 4h 30m, SOT 2h 53m, battery @50%;

Total 3d 7h 18m, SOT 5h 1m, battery @15%;

Total 1d 20h 30m, SOT 3h 22m, battery @50%;

Total 2d 5h 25m, SOT 5h 5m, battery @25%;

Total 2d 14h 7m , SOT 5h 20m, battery 20%.

You may understand my disappointment.

Btw, at one moment I've noticed play services updating itself. Version and release date in play store are exactly the same as before, but something has been updated... we'll see.

Edit: Ended up with total of 1d 5h, 25% battery left, 4h 7m SOT. SOT @14%, "GPS" @12%, Android OS @8%. 22 minutes more of SOT and 20 minutes more of "gps" running time during 2 more hours of total time. I'll give it another try - charge, clear data, restart...

[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] lbreak:
What's the point of having 95% capacity in 2 years time if you're only ever charging it to 80%?

Might as well charge to 100 and have 95% 2 years down the track.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] nds850:
It's a Note8 with stock ROM. Using Substratum and a custom font.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] cal3thousand:
It's not that I NEVER charge to 100%. That would be an incorrect assumption. In my REGULAR charging, I don't exceed those amounts, because I usually don't need it. But I certainly have put the phone up to 100%.

Really, what I am avoiding is leaving the phone charged to upper SOCs for extended periods of time. My phone doesn't need to sit at 100% for 6 hours every night and making it do so would be detrimental to the battery's life.

Same here. With sealed batteries, I do the same. Unlike my Mrs she leaves her note 8 on wireless charger over night cooking. Tut Tut. Personally, I don't use wireless and is slow cable charge up to around 80% on average.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] meboy:
Are you sure you have your facts right?

As far as I know these batteries like to be full or at least near full. And not be drained down to say less than even 30-40%
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] Cyrax-001:
Standby drain is 2% per hour, and that is really disturbing!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] cal3thousand:
Yes! I have my facts right.

Being an ebike builder, I'm a lithium battery enthusiast. We study these things closely. Before I became an ebike guy, I just charged my phone overnight like everyone else. After caring for thousands of times the amount of li-poly batts in phone, I have a decent understanding of what is detrimental to the life of a battery.

I look at it like a rubber band: It doesn't want to be stretched to it's limits and definitely doesn't want to be held there overnight.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] meboy:
I think you're overreacting. It's not even close to detrimental.

Other things can be detrimental. This is more like slightly better if avoided.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] WaxysDargle:
these batteries don't like being full or empty. 40-70% is most ideal. being empty is most damaging.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] Joao Oliveira:
I have the European (Exynos)dual sim version of the note 8 and since the last update a week ago,with November security patch the stand by battery life sucks. 2 to 4 % hour doing nothing I don’t get many notifications or anything. I have hard reset it and all and nothing seems to solve it. The phone also get much warmer using it . I think Samsung screwed up something

Damn it!
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] note3userr:
The battery charge is only an issue if you're planning to keep the phone for years. Charging to 100% and draining to 1 will have no big effect in a year or 2. But I still don't condone charging overnight . I usually charge mine to 100 before sleep
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] Limeybastard:
So how comes so many folks with Note 5 devices needed battery replacement after 2 years ?

I believe if you want the battery to last longer than 2 years then use the 80-40% method .
[Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Real Life Review] note3userr:
I had a note 5 and didn't need a battery replacement. There is many factors that go into a batteries life other than charging it fully. I have owned Android's since the very first Nexus and always charged to 100 and never had an issue. Only using such a small window of your battery is such an annoyance that the benefits of it cancel out.

Good evening everybody,

Having been purchased by HTC TOUCH CRUISE SFR pack, I look for a solution for the battery icon

With the percentage of charge as the ROM or FAMAN SCHAPS to TRINITY.

I had it on my TRINITY, it was very practical, I am looking for a CAB or TWEAK

The icon like this:

Thank you very much

ok, solved the problem by myself.

Find the app "TaskManagerApp.exe" in the \windows folder and activate "acivate short menu in today screen" in the "button" tab.

Playing Candy Crush for 22 hours straight can take its toll on your battery (and your marriage). Rate this thread to express how the Samsung Galaxy Note 8's battery performs under heavy use. A higher rating indicates that it lasts a long time even when playing games, streaming video and audio, and doing other CPU-intensive activities.
