Hello,

I dont really found centralized information about Oreo and feedbacks regarding battery life.

So please, people from Korea and North America, can you provide some feedback about Oreo update, especially about the battery life ?

I heard some negative opinion from this video : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5hH0TQY6Jg

Before he was at 5-6h SoT, after update 3-4h

Thanks !
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] jshames:
It was entirely predictable and expected that there would be no improvement in battery life or performance with Oreo despite all the anticipation.

I have literally NEVER seen a major operating system upgrade actually speed up performance of identical apps on the same device. Sometimes there might be a non-significant decline, but never an improvement.

Each Android upgrade promises some new trick to improve battery life like wakelocks etc, but it's only theoretical and perhaps applies only to brand new hardware.

Otherwise the progressive process of bloating in updated apps and system software use more power and more resources which more than compensate for the supposed improvements in efficiency

I think the few reports that have mentioned improvement are just the random variation that people get, even with Nougat, or even day to day on the same device.

Sometimes I get 1% standby drain per hour and sometimes 3% with no change in use or settings. I have found no consistent way to control this, including trying all of the tips mentioned (except for wiping my phone and starting from scratch).

So far the video reviews that I have seen of Oreo on the G6 are pointedly unexciting and confirm my predictions. As far as I am concerned the only reason to update is for the security patches. I am hesitant to update given that going backwards is difficult on a unrooted device.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] sun_is_shinning:
maybe some little improvements are made, sure, nothing big to say its a major update, NO!

is almost only a Android version bump and a security patch. PERIOD...

The features this new version introduced is low and people who update the phone dont will see a big change, i already see some videos of update in youtube and didnt see too much difference.

Of course is a good thing LG doing it but isnt night and day,is more like some hours of difference.

Lets see with time to time the Doze mode and power savings features step in and see some change in battery life, i trust LG make something to improve it, again nothing special but for me that already make a difference.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Tag49:
2 remarks :

From my experience, I never saw an android update improve battery life too. But that was a long time ago, with "cheap" phones (expect nexus 4, so disappointed). But recently, a friend bought a Nokia 8, and after the Oreo update, the battery has become so amazing, I was really really suprised and so jealous! So now I still have a little hope ...

However concerning standby drain, for me it's pretty ok. In airplane mode lost 0 or 1% for all night, and with data or wifi, it stays "normal".
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] jimrfraser:
You guys have something else going on.like the first post said it depends on day to day and other factors like many apps running in back ground.My phone and battery have 0 issues.on full charge it stays at 100 for about 10min on heavy internet use and then drops about 2percent per hour.I only charge my phone every 3 days.I also found phone much faster after oreo and less studder.I suppose because part of the update is to have less apps running in background.I wouldnt really listen to some users because the change log for oreo is huge.Soooooo many changes under the hood.people should read the change log before giving false facts(and they are false)Always gonna have some dude complaing about something
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Tag49:
Did you make some improvements like disabling logs and reducing resolution ? Any reset after oreo ?
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] jimrfraser:
I disabled event logs yes.kept screen on large size and no resolution change.Yes I did a factory reset immediately after.I think alot of people are having issues with battery because they dont calibrate it first when new out of the box.As a rule of thumb no matter what electronics i buy i always charge to 100 percent and literally let it drain to 0 percent then full chage again.Do this step twice in a row and i can pretty much guarantee you wont have issues with battery that are out of the ordinary.LOVE MY G6

[LG G6 Questions and Answers] devaa01:
Y kllua but people are complaining regardless of wifi or mobile network. My package includes 6gb of network per month every month i spend 4gb etc...

And lots of people i see have bluetooth, nfc ( if they even thats in or what it even is. ) and then comes some1 like you and says ooo wifi on. What im gonna use at home ? Data ? To consump battery and empty my month data, and what im gonna use on streets, work, free time outside house etc. Mobile fking data. You think wifi is all around us
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Killua96:
Well, my G6's battery sucks because at work the phone switches every couple of minutes to all the networks, and so I'm not able to reach home after 9-10 hours with 1-2 of SOT without charging a 20-30% during lunch, besides in weekends where I'm almost everyday under a wifi connection I easily reach 4-5 hours of SOT with gaming in a full day usage.

Also yes, there are many other parameters, like BT, NFC, GPS, Apps ecc...

So finally got Oreo thanks to LG Brigde.

The battery stock app seems really... broken ? Please see screenshots.

The message says : "2 days ago , 1h27min left the conversation."

PS : I made a factory reset after the oreo update.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] Lisandro_917:
Mine has actually improved! I'm getting like 30 minutes more (the improvement came after I drained the battery almost completely and charged it back like 3 times and after a factory reset). Not much but I can't complain. I'm actually happy for the improvements in fast charge speed, it's even faster now.
[LG G6 Questions and Answers] clouds5:
Third day with Oreo now.

Battery life is great, at least as good as before. I have 3.5h of screen on time right now and I'm at 43% battery at the end of a full work day with traveling etc.

And that's with Nova Launcher, Gesture Control [root], Always on Display and Pixel live wallpaper enabled.

Very happy with the G6 at the moment. Of course battery life always depends on your personal use and different phones provide better battery life for different people... G6 seems to work well for me and definitely better than the Huawei P9 I had before.

For people with battery life issues I suggest this: Battery life guide (I keep resolution at max because it messes with AOD and camera)

and also if you don't use google voice assistant try disabling the google app and use the chrome search widget instead. And keep location services on battery saving mode if you don't need GPS all the time.

[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oppp3:
hey guys,

I was trying to root my OnePlus 3 (latest OxygenOS release, OnePlus kernel)

Everything was going smoothly until trying to install the supersu.zip from TWRP.

No matter what I try, I can't seem to get it to install (downgraded to an older oneplus kernel, tried a more recent version of supersu...)

The installation process stops at

- Patching sepolicy

--- Failure, aborting

What is the problem here (in laymen's terms as I am a basic Android user lol)? It does not seem to be a common issue so I am wondering what would cause it to occur on my phone (I haven't really done much in terms of rooting my phone prior to this attempt)? And also how to install supersu in a relatively simple way?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

That's just the s9, i had the same problem.. then i sold it and bought the s9+, which has an amazing battery life (8+ hrs of sot)
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] kyooohei08:
Let it settle for atleast a week and make sure you calibrated the battery already.

I had it running for 4h of SOT with constant games (no power saving and no snoozing of apps) and in WQHD+ res. S9 exy

I just yesterday met a colleage whos got the S9+ and his SOT is marginally better than my S9..he's been getting 5hrs SOT. 8 seems great.

To the OP, as mention above give it a week..it will improve..but don't expect anything great. We're all praying Samsung pushes a firmware to fix things.

If you mean shuts off completely, I'm pretty sure mine has been that low and I don't remember it ever shutting down.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] kyooohei08:
You can check for it in Device Maintenance-Battery.

SOT means the "actual use" of your phone. How long have you been using your phone actively, not considering the times your phone was idle.
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] daniel4653:
Well I am jealous. I can see the percentage drop 1% about every 2 mins of use. I had this same issue on the S9+ on launch. Ended up retuning it for that reason. I'm using WQHD+ as well with WiFi and mobile network on 24/7. Medium Power mode doesn't seem to help at all. FYI on other phones with similar settings I easily average 18-30 hrs up time with 3.5-4hrs wake time. This includes my S7 edge, Pixel 2, and 1+5T. View attachment 4508099

[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] kyooohei08:
I dont know, I dont always full charge my phone, Im keeping it between 40-80%. I think I fully charged it just around 8times since I got it in April. Last month I disabled most apps due to "battery drain" but I still get around 4h, it seemed that it didnt help. I was a battery saver that time until someone said "I used to care about my battery, but then started to enjoy my phone". He actually got a point, why would you buy premium phone if you've had to disable most apps and featutes. So I turned them all again, except for one settings in apps.

In Settings-Apps you can select individual apps and click on battery, from there I disabled most of my apps Allow Background Activity settings. I think that is what makes the difference. I still get my notifications so I think it's not bad switching it off. Below this post is my last discharge cycle.

I think it's obvious. You consumed 43% of your battery with 2h17 of sot. So you will most probably consume 86% (43*2) of battery with 4h34 (2h17 *2) of sot ... simple maths but still hypothetic ;)

Well on your screenshot you're at 57% left with 2 hrs and 17 mins screen time. Simply double it lol
[Samsung Galaxy S9  Questions & Answers] kyooohei08:
Actually no, that still depends on your usage, as some tasks require more power. I've had a similar scenario where I estimated it to double while in 50%, and from there I played games and it drained quicker. So what you did is simply an estimation while assuming he does the same thing until the phone dies.

Hi!

The phone was working fine up till yesterday.

I left it charging, only to find it stuck with the red LED on. It would not respond to button presses, and the LED stayed on even after being unplugged.

I took the battery out, put it back in, didn't want to boot. I took the battery out again, left it out for a few minutes, it booted with an unfamiliar message "Could not do normal boot" or something along those lines. After a restart it booted normally.

I used the phone normally the whole day, but after leaving it charging, same thing happened, but resolved it with leaving the battery out for a few minutes.

Phone worked fine from there on.

Left it charging before bedtime, found it stuck again in the morning, but this time, no way to boot.

I changed batteries, left it without battery for quite some time, nothing.

The phone is rooted, running a custom ROM, flashed sometime last year. Had no problems until now.

What do you recommend?

Check the address and try again", and it happens for any kind of website, and i'm connected in the same time with my LAPTOP by using WIFI (using in this moment to write).

Plus....

- do not have MSN (and i need it )

- cannot see on the program menu all the links to OFFICE MOBILE, even though i can open downloaded files cos it exhist in WINDOW folder

- do not see many programs on the main PROGRAMS menu such as , SPRITE BACKUP (ho il disco in cinese, ma ad ogni modo non leggo i caratteri), GPS SOFTWARE (like TOM TOM), WINDOWS LIVE

- canot see on the connections menu, KEYBOARD SLIDING SOUND (but it exist in WINDOW folder)

-in the SYSTEM menu cannot see, KEY LOCK,MICROPHONE AGC,POWER (but all exist in WINDOW folder)

-in CONNECTIONS menu cannot see, GPRS Setting, HDSPA, CONNECTION SETUP,WIRELESS LAN (last one i have in WINDOWS folder)

Another problem is :

i would like to have the main HTC screen for this device, that one showing weather...bla bla bla...

Is it a lot of things ? ...

Do i suck at this things ?

If anybody is so kind to spend some time to give me help i'll be so grateful.

Thanks everybody !!

After trying to boot my phone several times with an almost empty battery the phone won't boot any more. The boot process hangs in the Jiayu logo (the phone is a Jiayu S3). The phone gets hot, so maybe it is doing something CPU intensive??? I can connect to the phone via adb. Command "adb logcat" shows several messages flowing constantly. The most severe message as far as I can tell is the following:

I think that the error comes from this line in com.android.server.am.ActivityManagerService.setSystemProcess(ActivityManagerService.java):

Is there a fix for the message "Unable to find android system package" (package "android")? For example, would re-installing an .apk (which one?) fix this?
