[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] oVeRdOsE.:
From what I can see, power increase, battery capacity increase , but the SOT remain +/- the same on flagships.

I do remember my onplus5 snapdragon 835 with 3300mAh battery, it was a 8h SOT and if we add all the battery saving feature it was easy 10h SOT.

(note that it had thos crazy SOT after software updates, day 1 and reviews were stating 5h sot).

My OP5 was loosing around 45min-1h SOT / year, so yeah glad to get from 4h to 8h with the S23U.

But nothing new for me lol

Also using light mode, and I remove all the automatic stuff, near devices detection, disable 5G and only 5 apps can send notification. 1440p and 120hz tho.

Honestly , I was expecting more, since most if not all reviews were stating crazy battery life, that was something unseen... well for a samsung alone maybe.

Don't get me wrong, Im not disappointed, but once again, reviewers pushed a bit too far the exaggeration.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] robi101012981:
I didn't manage to get more than 6h SOT, but it's better since I'm coming from sht Exynos where I didn't saw more than 4.5h SOT.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Thanos88:
I hit 12 hours sot today, 2 and a half days without charge. 120hz wqhd + performance mode on. You need to do some tweaks ,

I don't know if this Normal as first and second fills.

Did put some items in deep sleep like facebook
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] djoxie:
What exactly did you change/disable/tweak?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Dinosaure42:
Def try using Samsung Internet instead of Chrome it really drains the battery a lot
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Dinosaure42:
What tweaks did you do?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Beefheart:
I've not tried Gsam since I updated to Android 14. But if it didn't work on Android 13 I'm not confident it will behave differently on 14 without a proper update, but I suspect the dev has abandoned the app.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] matty100147:
Gsam works with me on android 14, I've had it working non stop for maybe 4 months now, whenever it crashes just let it be for a few hours and it eventually goes again but mine hasn't crashed now for a few months
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Wow what's your setup please
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
One UI 6?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] DiscoThunder:
Nothing extreme. Debloated, adaptive screen, light power performance, mostly on WiFi.

Bixby routines activate power saving at 30%. No apps that stands out wrt battery drain.

Yeah.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] DiscoThunder:
No apps that stand out wrt battery drain. Telegram, RIF, Youtube, Firefox at the top. No, I don't use whatsapp, haha.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Well..there's the solution..kill WhatsApp ...but the damn world runs on that wretched app...
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Nice what is your debloat script you use ,and did you factory reset after updating to one UI 6 from one UI 5
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] DiscoThunder:
Removed most of the recommended list with this app: https://github.com/Universal-Debloater-Alliance/universal-android-debloater

Phone is new, so I only used it for a few days on UI 5 before updating to 6. No factory reset.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Nice 👍 thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Do you have a debloat script
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] DiscoThunder:
It's literally in the post you quoted
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
The app page isn't very informative
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] olafsand:
All stock and android14
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Beefheart:
I ran it on Android 13 for about a month until I got fed up of it being so unreliable. An app I have to wait an hour to work 50% of the time I open it isn't an all I'm interested in using unfortunately. Which is a shame because, like I said, it's the best battery app out there for me.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
App won't recognise my phone to connect it for debloat
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Fl1nt91:
Unbelievable device, with android 14 and Gcam is literally perfect
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
What gcam and XML do you use
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Fl1nt91:
LMC 17, this xml is based on @JavaSabr work
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] DiscoThunder:
I prefer AGC 8.8 V7 with Java v21 configs
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Fl1nt91:
Tried both of them extensively.

Quality is comparable, except that with LMC and HDR++ I can use one mode for every situation, while in AGC you have to switch at least between 3 different modes according to the scenarios
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Atlas7:
After upgrato oneui 6.0 i am loosing 11%/h is this normal or too high?

All time 4g, social media, browsing, youtube, etc.

I have adguard turned on all time.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Klaudas:
Good results especially when you have dual sim + adguard.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Big Bread:
@DiscoThunder There's an option in UAD (bottom right of the screen) called "export current selection." When you press it, it makes a list of apps you've disabled.

Could you press that option, then send the file here so we can see the apps you've disabled during debloating? Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] deathztm:
I am losing 1%+ per hour in airplane mode with no WiFi screen off. I have tried factory reset before too. Couldn't figure out what is draining the battery that often. Could occasionally see battery spiking up in screen off when using batteryguru. With gsam I see the screen discharge % while off, not sure if the screen is consuming power while not in use too?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] ionutdicu:
I can confirm that, after updating to 6.0, with the same apps installed and with cache cleared, I have obviously more battery drainage than on 5.0
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Be ready to hear opposite reviews very soon. I for one can claim better battery life on 6.0.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Battery is better for me on one ui 6,I get 9-10 hours sot
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] darek5cro:
Same here - right now - 35% left - 7h 5min screen on.. I am happy
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Chrisnik:
So... Adaptive battery on or off on one ui 6?!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] darek5cro:
I have it disabled since first day - and 90% apps in deep sleep ( except gmail,bank, viber and similar)

Maybe with adaptive on will be even better SoT.. dont know
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] nmt1900:
Something really weird has happened around this week....

After update to OneUI 6/Android 14 i noticed that guess-o-meter "full charge will last" estimate started to fluctuate significantly more than before. On days with lesser usage it stayed at 4d 4h and lowered to about 3d 20h after about 4 hours of podcasts on Sporify (not doing it every day).

Update increased this fluctuation to point where estimate dropped to aboud 3d 9h after these Spotify sessions, but now suddenly I see that 4d 4h stays at this value even after 5 hours of continuous Spotify use - or decreases to about 4d 1h.

I am not sure what has changed. Spotify received some updates along some other apps and I did "restart wifi subsystem" in intelligent wifi connectivity labs. That was supposed to "essentially just disable end re-enable wifi connection" but who knows maybe something else got fixed with this (yes I use Spotify mainly over wi-fi)...
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] xgerryx:
I am still getting great battery life on One UI 6. I'm on pace daily for 10-11 hours of SoT, sometimes even 12 hours.

Stats: 1440p, 120hz, AoD lift on wake, auto brightness, GPS always on, mix of Wifi and mobile data. Nothing special done to save battery. using Adguard DNS.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ogy77:
Adaptive on or off?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] xgerryx:
I've always left that on. I didn't see a different TBH either way.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] enigmaamit:
Edit: delete
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] enigmaamit:
You're able to look at your phone screen for 10-12 hours a day?

That's amazing!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] xgerryx:
I said on pace. I don't think almost anyone actually looks at their phone for that long. I have a 2 min screen off time set, so I'm sure some of that is the phone sitting with the screen on after I check it. Currently using some dating apps too which does take up a lot of time, and watch/listen to Youtube at work.

Like this morning I watched an 90 mins of a live stream on Youtube. Total screen time today is 2.5 hours. used 22% battery.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] m3ath:
Excellent battery for me

2 sim Data 4G and wifi

Two days and 9 hours and 30 minutes of screen time
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
What are your settings
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
How old is your phone,and standard or light profile
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] xgerryx:
Uh, I got my phone used (like barely, a month old) on Swappa in March. Standard everything, no battery saving measures have been taken at all to purpusefully save more and have the phone last longer. It's just awesome.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Nice mine is 11 months old,but battery doesn't seem to last that well like it did on android 13
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
So standard profile,full resolution,gps on,aod lift to wake,etc
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Do you have a photo of your battery use
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] xgerryx:
Honestly I don't I even noticed a change, not even in the first couple days after the update. Maybe I'm just lucky? Which I don't tend to be....but yea. The one thing I do is I never use the fast charger. I use a slow charger overnight or 5w wireless charging. But when I had oneplus phones I always used their stock block and cable and didn't have battery issues as time went on with them. It's a total random thing I guess.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Nice ,I set a routine to pause charging and continue charge before I wake up
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] xgerryx:
Yes. This is today up until right now. On pace for 10 hours right now.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Very nice,what I usually get
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Do you have 5g on etc

[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Deleted all meta services and upday off my phone and battery seems miles better like march and April patch on one ui 5,which was the best battery I've had on s23 ultra
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Bro..how do you manage to get GSAM to work? For me, that app just crashes or reports incorrect figures..
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Ogy77:
Can you write how delete meta services
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Use an app called adb app control on pc/laptop then scroll through app list and remove all meta services,I still have the Facebook app and it works as normal
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
I set it up on my laptop via adb command
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Yes, I know..you need to run the adb command. I have done all that and the damn thing never works..
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
It's working for me
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
This the gibberish that Gsam reports with all the adb commands provided.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Mine works, strange
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] matty100147:
Very strange, mine has worked without problem for 6 months or more now
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Are you guys on the pro version or the regular one? I have a feeling the pro is acting up.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Pro I'm using
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
That's crazy..then why is my app acting up...What adb commands have you run? Battery_Stats and global policy_1? Any other?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] eyeatoma:
I've got the same issue man, it's not only you. I've tried the pro and regular version. I wonder if it has anything to do with One UI 6.0.

Isn't bedomfan using one ui 5?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Revontheus:
I also recommend that guide, except disabling the adaptive battery part. I leave it on, for the system to adapt to my usage patterns.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
The issue was the same with one UI 5, 5.1, and now 6.0.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
No one UI 6
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] eyeatoma:
Ugghg, not sure why it's not working for me iether then. I used to use this all the time. I get the same giberrish. Do you know of any fixes?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
No ,but works fine here 😕
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] hshah:
GSam has just been updated to support Android 14. Let's see if it works!

/Edit: IT WORKS!!!
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Been working for ages for me
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] pratik_193:
Latest version worked for 2 days, then it stopped showing data!

It never worked for me consistently
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Been working for me for over a month
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] trevzv:
If you're having issues with GSam, I use the pro version as well, but the ADB command they suggest in the app is incorrect. Try this ADB shell pm grant command:

adb shell pm grant

com.gsamlabs.bbm.pro

android.permission.BATTERY_STATS

I'm not sure if the command is really this one because it's been a while since I used it. If it's not, search the internet for the correct command.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
is this working? It's working..so far...
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] dancrow:
After two days, gsam pro stop showing application data, with all permission given, on Android 14, S23 ultra.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Works for me on android 14 latest update,and latest apk update
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] olat_dragneel:
Did you ever resolve the issue with *job*/com.whatsapp/androidx.work.impl.background.systemjob.SystemJobService
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] trevzv:
no, I just left him in deep suspension.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Hi all..can some please explain the meaning of this drain "Prevent sleep by AssistantDelay".
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] pratik_193:
even i have this. cant figure out what this is.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Do you have galaxy max hz? I fiddled around with the doze time and I have feeling this is what this drain is about.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] pratik_193:
I do have yes. Were you able to figure out what setting in gmh is causing this?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
I had fiddled with the doze interval and I think this is what messed with the sleep...I have disabled that feature now
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] pratik_193:
but i dont use the doze feature of GMH. think this is something else
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Then it should Samsung's nut cases fixing things that don't need fixing
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
This is getting really annoying..the drain is noticeable now. Anyone with GSAM working has this issue?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] beanbean50:
Do you have 'keep screen on while viewing' enabled in the display settings by any chance
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Nope don't have that.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] pratik_193:
i have this enabled. Disabled now, lets see if this wakelock goes away
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
I don't think that's the issue. I never had it on in the first place yet this drain was there! There's something else that's not allowing the device go into deep sleep.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
I disabled device assistant altogether yet the darn thing is still there. Seems Samsung has broken something in the last update...just when things were fine and dandy..the nutjobs there go and screw up something
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
I think I have found the culprit. It's not the device assistant but the galaxy maxhz app that was messing with the OS doze. Removed it and all is well
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] pratik_193:
Did you uninstall GmH or did you disable doze from GmH?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Removed it entirely
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Atlas7:
I have GalaxyMHz installed too and i checked my wakeclock and have same problem. I uninstall GalaxyMhz now and will report it back.

Update: after uninstalling galaxymhz and reboot wakeclock from Prevent Sleep by AssistantDelay is still rising. Before uninstall 1988, after 1997.

My device SOT from 100%-0% is around 7 hours, average consumption is from 8%/h to 11%/h (around 470mAh/h). Can you please tell me what is your time of SOT and consumption?

My friend bought s23U this month and he gots like 10 hours of SOT. Soo I think maybe is draining my battery and can not figure out what. Is my consumption normal?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Here's what I did..removed GMhz and wiped cache from recovery. This wake is still there however at a very low count. Usually, from 8am to 1pm, the wakelock would be at around 3 mins (when GMhz was installed). After removing it and wiping cache, the wakelock has gone down to 44 secs in the same period. The wakelock will still be there as it's baked into the system i.e. maintenance schedule of doze.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Battery seems less on January patch
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] jimmierosa:
I am getting very poor battery life from my phone.

Can anyone help me understand why SOT is so low, compare to others claiming 9-10hours
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] enigmaamit:
This new Jan update is a little bit of a lemon for me as well. Battery is about 20% worse as compared to earlier builds.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
It seems there's a lot of crazy wakelocks.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] jimmierosa:
Deep sleep 1%/hr & Screen off 2%/hr is Normal?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Atlas7:
I am getting max 7 hours of SOT. I noticed that to, my battery drain is higer after last update and phone is not smooth like before that update. If you use your phone outside on maximum brightness your discharge speed will be for sure 12-16% per hours or maybe more. First time i got s23u my batter usage was 8% per hour, now 11%.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Atlas7:
Yes it is normal i guess.. maybe i have little better stats
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] jimmierosa:
how others are claiming all-day battery life and 10-11hrs SOT ?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Fl1nt91:
Personally I noticed that without power saving mode SOT is around 7 hours, with is over 10.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] nmt1900:
It looks like there's no issues when phone is asleep over night, but battery life estimates will fall like rock after waking phone up at the morning. It is enough to have less than 10 minutes of screen time at morning and then put phone away again - battery life estimate will continue decreasing even when phone is not actively used after this "morning wakeup". That was not a case before January update...

P. S. It's not that long to wait until February update. We'll see how it will behave after that.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Atlas7:
My cpu frequency never goes lower than 556MHz is this normal? App used 3c all-in-one toolbox
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Big Bread:
Does anyone use a Galaxy watch? My battery is geting drained like crazy when my watch is paired with the phone in this jan update.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] enigmaamit:
I have a GW6 classic paired to the phone all the time. I haven't noticed a very high Battery drain. Battery on the Jan firmware is a little worse than earlier, but still gets me through a day easily. I wouldn't say I have noticed a crazy drain so far.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] AwesomeARC:
This is my SOT. Mostly on WiFi. Will see with data.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Here's something for you to munch on for those obsessed with SOT. 64% used with 8h54mins SOT. Extrapolating to 0%...I'm looking to hit the 14 hour SOT mark. So, then you might ask me what I was doing for 8 hours or so staring at the screen....watched season 3 of The Boys on amazon prime. This goes to say that the S23U can easily achieve 14 to 15 hours of SOT. Let's put at a lid to the SOT cries.

BTW, I'm on the Jan update.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Solid battery,what settings. Light profile?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
qhd+, 120hz, location on, sync on and light profile...but I use routines a lot. So, when any video streaming app is opened, the screen goes to full hd and 60hz because there's really no point streaming at 4k @ 120hz on a 6+ inch display....there's no content at 60hz forget 120hz while you can't discern any difference between 1080p and 4k on such a small panel. This saves a ton of battery when streaming. And, btw, I was on BT for all 8 hours...
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] bodomfan:
Nice I'll have to try that 😀
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
Sorry I forgot to mention that when I'm on WiFi the location is off..again another routine..why do I need to have location running when I'm confined to a room
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Atlas7:
Can you please share your routines and their settings? Thank you
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Fl1nt91:
Instead, I made a routine that just turn on location when is needed (e.g. maps, Uber or bike sharing app is launched), and automatically turn it off when the app is closed.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
ditto
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] Beefheart:
Currently sitting on 49% with 3 hours 25 minutes SOT, so I'm looking at around 7 hours total, or around 6.5 hours before I hit around 15% which would be the lowest I'd normally allow the phone to go before charging.

This has been pretty typical since I updated to BWL3 and a far cry from what I was getting previously where I'd regularly get close to 9 hours SOT with decent use before I'd have to think about charging.

Hoping the next update improves things.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] matty100147:
January update is the worst yet, went from just over 2 day battery life to barely 1 day! Even overnight my phone is now losing 1.0-1.3% per hour compared to 0.1-0.3% before the January patch, I just wonder did they do it on purpose to try to get people to upgrade to the s24, really hope February fixes it
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] andreasarxon:
Same here, January update made the battery 20% worse. Thinking to flash previous firmware. From 8h sot i go to 6/6.30. Probably because of s24 release. If in the next update they change the bootloader then we will not be able to flash the previous firmware..
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] darek5cro:
Okay, I am around 8h sot.. But did anyone find what is causing more battery drain after january update?
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] t-shock:
Can confirm as well that even after reflashing the January update, the battery is considerably worse (20-25% worse), especially the standby drain

Every year around January-February (right before the release of the next flagship), the autonomy of the previous flagship gets worse....... Cmon Samsung
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] _GRIZZLY_:
So only one good thing are back to A13 which I will do. Use samsung's flagships from above decade and observe similar situation. I very like samsung's devices, software experience, stability but I hate update policy update for this cause.
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] darek5cro:
Solution is trying to find what is "sucking" more battery - I dont have Gsam or similar app but you guyz should be able to see, digg little deeper :) ⁴
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] olafsand:
Was 8+h before jan update yes. Hope that 6.1 will get good battery back
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] tribalfs:
Hello,

Someone pointed me to these posts.

GMH doze mod has nothing to do with AssistantDelay wakelock.

I checked the source code, that wakelock is actually triggered by EdgeLighting (i.e. a notification assistant) and also not by device assistant:
[Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra] amirage:
I think I owe an apology...
