I can go from 8 am to 11 pm with moderate usage, navigation included. In your case the culprit could be Google Maps. Navigation would consume a lot of battery, but even after you're done, Google Maps creates a wakelock. I have been seeing 'frequent wakeups' from Maps after I stopped navigation in my daily commute. And this could be a reason of standby drain. Check if you can replicate the issue on both S22U and S21U.

Edit: I have disabled background usage for Maps and even turned off all notifications.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] pratik_193:
Battery life is goodish. Would not call it a huawei level battery. I fully charge at around 8am, lasts till next day morning. 1 Gmail and 1 Corporate O365 account, both push, whatsapp, insta, telegram, fb wrapper installed. Play games (Cod and Clash of Clans) for around 30ish minutes. Push notification active only for emails, whatsapp, YouTube.

Battery life could be better. Hope OneUi 5 proves to be battery friendly
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
No wakeups or unusual standby drain in mine. It's the amount of drain while in use and is a lot more than the S21U.

I do have multiple accounts configured, so are the same in the 21U.

I did not keep high hopes with OneUI versions to better batterylife, so do not have either going forward. 😶

It's the SD8GEN1 SoC that's good at draining and can't do much about it....It's definitely much better than current Exy 2200 and past crappy Exynos that we used to get, it's just that it's not power effecient.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sandy.parulekar:
yes I am also facing this map wakelock issue
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] pratik_193:
I guess we should not expect a huawei level epic battery life from Samsung or Oneplus. so its better that we lower our expectations :)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Can't keep accepting lower batterylife than the predecessor every time a successor comes up right? Cheers.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] linom:
Blame Samsung manufacturing nodes here. News is out that SD Gen1 8+ on TSMC node is 30% power efficient in test runs. Real life mileage would vary, but would be still much better than current SD8 Gen1. Its unfortunate that Samsung has been giving us lemons since last 5 years.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] linom:
This is a maps issue and there is no solution unless Google-Samsung fix it.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] pratik_193:
How do you check wake locks?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] linom:
Download Gsam battery monitor and enable advanced stats using adb. My earlier screenshot was from Battery Guardian app, a part of Good Guardians suite from Samsung. Download all of them from Apkmirror.

@Virgo_Guy , could you please tell me how much did it cost you to replcae your screen? Mine broke too sadly and I am thinking of replacing it if its not too expensive. Also which service center did you opt for? Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
₹ 19863/-.

- A service center in Mumbai.

(Never mind, can't take the name since it was requested not to take the name because of all the mumbo jumbo created that I explained before).

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
A minimal precessing fee required having ADLD.

PAN India service charge for display replacement inclusive of GST.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
I'll really be surprised if they return the phone without damaging somewhere after a repair despite of you being precautious.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sunny1119:
Yea, thats why I am thinking to give it for screen replacement or not, mine is broken from the curved screen on right side, half inch visible dent crack and 2 big cracks going up (not much visible while using phone)
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] linom:
So I wiped cache twice in recovery and 'repaired apps' last weekend. And this is my all time best battery run-> 90% on WIFI + 1 sim on 4G. Seems pretty good on Wifi.

Using GSAM I found out that Bluetooth is draining battery, probably with my paired GW3. Also surprisingly Dex. Galaxy store and Samsung accessory services are keeping the device awake despite disabling Dex & store completely.

Samsung really needs to optimize their own apps on priority. I shared this feedback and all I get is a canned response about how to optimize the battery. Disappointed with their response.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Royal King:
Is there a way to boot into recovery without connecting the phone to a pc?

It's really annoying to do this everytime.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] pratik_193:
'repaired apps' - how? you mean the optimization that happens after clearing cache from recovery?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] linom:
There is a 'Repair Apps' option in recovery and this initiates optimization during booting process.

Is the battery life of either vivo x80 pro or one plus 10 pro better than samsung s22 ultra?. I have the s22 ultra but the battery life is not that good.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] sameermehta2:
All are same more or less,op10pro may have slightly better battery
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] lycan_codex:
Camera of Vivo X80 Pro is exceptional. Nothing beats it. I was fortunate to see it in action in recent photography trip to Kashmir. Although the expert raw app is super awesome. Vivo phone's camera prowess is next level. I don't think it's battery life is same as s22 ultra though. Ita actually lil less. I am hoping this gets fixed in x80 pro+ which will release in Oct.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] reddead66:
Hey folks,

I am being gifted s22 ultra soon. Already super excited and looking for cases and tempered glass.

What case and screen protection are you guys rocking?

Please recommend.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] RenegadeRomeo:
I got a Spigen case, pretty snug fit and comfortable to hold. You'd definitely need a case coz the phone is way slippery.

I got a Spigen screen protector too. It is just a film protector, not tempered glass. It is so worse when you try to install it. Do not go for it.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] RenegadeRomeo:
I bought my S22U 3 months back. Sadly however the back glass got a tiny crack, maybe coz it was in a tight pocket in a bad jeans. Lately, when I noticed it, the crack was around the camera module, although minor. It has been concerning me ever since if that would effect the internals in any way? I bought 1yr ADLD and am wondering if they would just repair or replace the device. Because my battery life is not what I expected, coming from 11Pro, I have been getting 6-6.5 hrs SOT (720p+, GPS off, Data off). Which got me thinking maybe it is device issue and if I could replace it.

How good would be the service quality? I'm so skeptical regarding that.

What would you guys suggest? This is my first Samsung and I'm not so sure how ADLD works. Thanks in advance!!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] aungmyomyatzaw:
which app is it?Is it need root access?
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] linom:
You dont need root access. Just use GSAM battery monitor and grant advanced permissions with adb.

Use GSam to Its Fullest Potential to Monitor Battery Life, CPU Usage & More

Figuring out exactly which apps on your phone are eating through resources and battery life can be a difficult task. Though some information can be found in Android's battery menu, the charts and graphs provided here pale in comparison to what's offered by the GSam app. If you configure this app...

Hi, can anyone help me out. I have been having some display issues...although it is minor but I would like it to be get fixed.

My question is, Can one claim hardware warranty on rooted devices?

If so, do one need to hide unlocked bootloader thing before going in or they dont care about it?

I bought the s22 ultra from Amazon (with offer) thinking that I will be able to redeem the GW4 after 3 days. But like many I got the error, "Device is no eligible for redemption."

Samsung didn't do **** about it and simply told me to contact Amazon.

Amazon agreed to create a return and they in about 10 days I got a refund. I placed the order again from a Amazon but this time around I went with the 512gB version which is a combo listing on Amazon and it includes the galaxy watch 4 itself.

I got the phone and the watch is yet to be dispatched from Amazon but it will be delivered.

So, anybody expecting the watch 4, please but the combo(the product image shows phone and watch together and it includes an additional 3k cost) version from Amazon or buy using Samsung or retail where the watch offer is clearly provided by the seller.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] S1611:
Would you advise me pick S22 ultra. Planning to keep this for 5 years. Or rather should I go for iphone
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] zaydenQ:
Go for iPhone if you want to keep it for 5 years.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Go for an iPhone if you have the ecosystem or you're willing to have the ecosystem MINUS call recording. It'll run smoothly for years.

The SD8G1 isn't a power effecient chip, otherwise S22U is overall a "good" phone with flexibility of Android. Will run for 5 years with security updates having upto 4 years of software updates which is great but it's not very likely that it'll run that smoothly as expected after 2+ years or so IMHO.

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Dpk1:
So, after 4 months of waiting for camera improvements through software updates, I am of opinion that Camera (mainly software processing) on the S22 ultra is subpar. Even S21 ultra and Note20 ultra appear to have better results especially when photographing people. This new samsung processing (perhaps owing to snapdragon chip, not sure) seems very aggressive, oversharpening everything, resulting in artifacts especially over faces even in broad daylight (when pixel peeping). Some people may like it, but I hate this new samsung camera approach. Using ported Gcam produces much better pics indoors, but they're outright bad at night. Overall, not pleased with S22 ultra and hence switched back to a year old Xiaomi mi11 ultra last week! Software/UI may not be as polished and reliable as Samsung's but can do with that (and lack of the lack S pen) as long as the camera performance is excellent (beats the S22 ultra camera by far imo)! Never thought I'd go back to Xiaomi after getting the latest and greatest from Samsung (which will sit idle in my drawer for now)!
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Virgo_Guy:
Thoroughly agree with you. I am no camera expert but I could clearly get the sub par camera performance within a week of purchase and updates so far could not make it any better.

I've enabled "Suspend execution for cached apps" and also wiped the cached partition. Battery life so far seems increased by ~30% but I haven't had time to test in exactly the same conditions as before. Now which of these two interventions made the difference, I wouldn't know.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] zaydenQ:
I used to wipe cache after every monthly update but nothing ever changed drastically. So it has to be the other thing. Update after a few months: still getting the same good battery life.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] linom:
I've done both and forced LTE only on my primary SIM. Also I did disable adaptive battery as a test. I'm able to get more than a day of use with moderate usage (SOT: about 5.5-6 hrs for over 30 hours use). With heavy usage it lasts about 18-20 hours easily and over 7-8 hours SOT.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dandv:
How did you force LTE only? I only see autoconnect options involving LTE.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] linom:
I use this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xsquarestudio.forcelte&hl=en_US&gl=US

I assume this works on JIO and not on Airtel/Voda. My second SIM is JIO where I see this option of 'LTE only'.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dandv:
Update to this:

I did the steps above (cache stuff) and battery life did seem to increase, but I forgot to mention that I also let the phone charge to 100% (just tried to throw everything at the battery problem).

Now that I've limited charging to 85% to prolong battery life, I seem to see crappy battery life again, 10% depletion per hour while using messaging apps.

Has anyone seen different battery consumption rates whether you allow charging to 100% vs. limiting to 85%?

The scrolling in play store is extremely choppy . I ve cleared data and cache and the usual stuff but the issue still persists.

Any ideas ? Video attached.

I checked the frame rate and it is at 60hz which should be fine. Only when i keep my finger pressed and drag it across the screen from bottom to top does it scroll smoothly.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] Royal King:
Try changing your dpi? I'm no expert, but it maybe because of that?

No, S908B is Exynos, S908E is Snapdragon. This time Europe got Exynos and Indian got Snapdragon
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dr.ketan:
No we can't flash it in spite of it is snapdragon. We needs Bootloader and modm for S908E
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dr.ketan:
I believe we may get it anytime now.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] P-KAY 2323:
Wouldn't we get the whole firmware like last year? as long as the model no. is S908E and the CSC is under OXM, we should be able to flash it just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] dr.ketan:
We never get full firmware on Beta

We can flash beta update file update.zip when Samsung release it for any country under OXM and one of user capture link for update.zip and share with us. But for OXM, mostly we india got it first since few years. In that case you can get beta directly by just rgesteing on Samsung Member app.

By the way you were saying about South Korea, they have snapdragon but not S908E, they do have S908N
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] P-KAY 2323:
I never got it last year. The popup in members app. I just downloaded the update files and updated them. I must be mistaking the process with my monthly firmware downloading and flashing.

[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] AhmedMomen:
I'm waiting patiently here too.

My country used to get the exynos SM-XXXXB model every year and i used to flash the beta with update.zip files every time as it came out,

But this time we got the new E snapdragon model here in the middle east.

Samsung released the beta in India every year for the past few years if i'm not mistaken. But India didn't use to have a different model number. It used to be the same as germany and other european countries.

However, let's hope they follow the same pattern as before.
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] DaOldMan:
India will receive the beta per this article and they have the Snapdragon "E" model :-) :

Samsung's One UI 5.0 beta will be available in these countries with Android 13

Samsung will offer up its One UI 5.0 beta in six different countries, with the program starting first in Germany.

9to5google.com
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] AhmedMomen:
If that's the case then that's great to hear!

I was afraid they might not drop the beta for India because it has a separate model number and it would need to be worked on and updated separately and stuff.

Fingers crossed we get it within this week. And hopefully someone is there to post grab the update.zip files
[Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra] DaOldMan:
My guess is it would be exceptionaly stupid NOT to beta test the Snapdragon version. So I am sure we will also get the beta files :-) .
