Battery Issue - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge

I was facing some serious battery usage problem on my s6 edge.
so i finally decided to check it out
step 1 = I completely drained out my mobiles battery until it didnt got shut down on itself.
step 2 = I charged my phone for 10min which the company claims to be useful for 4hrs of task
so for 10min of charging i got 18% of battery life.
which shows 3hrs 18min of usage and using power saving mode it shows 3hrs and ultra power saving mode shows 7hrs and 19min.
Does anybody has battery problem with their edge ??
I dont play games just normal usage like whatsapp and bbm and sometimes snapchat and insta gram

The battery issue and fixes for it have been discussed a lot on here. There are unrooted solutions and rooted solutions. Please be a bit more specific about your device itself such as whether you're rooted? Did you use CF-Auto-Root? Are you unrooted? Did you flash the OTA update? Giving these types of details will hopefully make it easier to point you in the right direction.

I havent rooted it.
My phone is the same as i got it out of the box.. i have only updated all the apps and a firmware update which came automatically when i switched on the device.

[Q] Cell Standby Power Drain Issue

Hello
I have new Samsung Galaxy S4 I9195, and everything will be ok, if the battery life will live more then a day. First few days the battery life was around 2days. Yesterday i plug off from charger (i only charge when it drop abut 15-10% to 100%). I go sleep with about 70% battery, and in the morrning what was my suprise when the battery was below 45%. What the **** i mean.
And i looking for the suff about the cell standy and i dont know what to do.
I find something like that:

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1732722
I use only 2G and in home i have always wifi turn on. As you can see in 15min phone eat 2% from battery when i write this post.
Phone is 90% time in one place where signal power is-73dBm 20asu
Whats the problem ?
I find this normal, 15 min - 2% (depends on what you are doing) i suggest you to turn your phone off when you are sleeping.
if i use chrome for like 5 min it drains 1/2 %
candy crush 10 mins drops 3/4 %
i have 17/18 applications so, it also depends on how many apps you have.
more apps is more battery use
so dont worry
Edit)
and 2% drain for posting this?
your lucky bro, my phone will drain probably 3/4 % (not sure)
@lgorek, to have some hints, read all this thread :
​http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2380723&highlight=drain
It could be a bug in the stock ROM. arco68 seems to have fixed it in his custom stock kernel :

For 99% there is problem for now i test it and search of the bug.
I notice that when i restart phone when is charging or after charge the battery life is at normal drop, BUT when battery drop to 10% i plug the charger and it reach 100%. Something is not working fine becouse the cell standaby power drain more battery.
I give more info in few day i will have more photos and you can see it.
dsavard i will check it, but first i test like i write up.

Awful G3 Standby time

So ive been using my G3 for about 10 days now and have been getting pretty bad battery life at work with airplane mode on and only wifi and wanted to really test out the battery last night by leaving it unplugged overnight. I usually keep my phone plugged in overnight but since it was the weekend i was home on saturday and it was in the charger for basically the whole day i decided to test the battery. I unplugged the phone at around 2:50 and took the screenshots below at around 8. I lost 29% of my battery during that time and i was SHOCKED!!! my phone was on 4G however i have really good service where i live and was on 4-5 bars all night. the phone didn't have bluetooth, wifi, nfc... ect active. The phone was on 15% brightness (if that even matters since the screen was off all night). Before i took the screenshots i went into battery and saw that an app called "lyft" was said to use 70% so i uninstalled it before taking that screenshots. I really don't know what i should do because i am rooted and have already installed a tempered glass screen protector. Please help if possible!
Screenshots: http://imgur.com/j3kbWyJ ; http://imgur.com/EZekrFw
Edit: Its 9:37 now and around an hour and a half after i uninstalled lyft. I am now at 68% which is better than last night however still pretty bad considering i had a screen on time since last night of just 6 minutes and 29 seconds. Here are the screenshoot updates: http://imgur.com/azs4SWK ; http://imgur.com/DNZu8n9 ; http://imgur.com/qrz4nrx
Edit #2: Battery life continuing to drain fast i have 59% which means i have lost 9% in less than 2 hours of virtually no screen on time. I am very concerned and don't know what to do? If anyone has had this issue please let me know. Screenshots: http://imgur.com/8nOgVgj ; http://imgur.com/lSywjj4 ; http://imgur.com/KqGYAVK

Looks like wakelocks only. my G3 has a great standby time, overnight with WiFi on i lose 3% or so for 6hrs. SOT is not that good, but the phone Deep sleeps well.
Try removing unnecessary bloat.

[Q] HTC one m8 : battery drains overnight :(

last night I had fully charged my m8 and when I slept at 12 it was 95% and morning when I woke up at 8 it already drained up to 15% battery ..that is 80%...I don't understand what's the reason for it ...no apps were running background and even power saving mode was on!
battery works great on normal mode..this happens mostly in standby mode!!
is anyone facing the same problem or I m the only one. .

Is there anything that could have been turning your screen on during the night? That sort of drain would most likely be caused by the screen. Has this happened before? It could be an isolated incident if not. Also, if you used extreme battery saving mode I doubt you would have had the problem, but that is a personal preference sort of thing.
Also, install GSam battery monitor and you can check what might have been going on when the drain was occurring.
Yes, need gsam screen shots. Or every reply will be a wild guess. And you need gsam root companion.
Hopefully you are rooted tho... Or you can't see the wakelocks from apps.

Where's my good battery life?

I have never had good battery life on my Galaxy Tab S 8.4 ever since I got it in April of 2015. I did a battery test using the Geekbench app and it gets only 4-5 hours of life. And since this is just screen on time, my battery normally drains much faster. I've tried 4.4 Kitkat, 5.1.1 Lolipop, and even 6.0 Marshmellow with no real difference to battery life. I have also tried battery monitoring and battery doctor apps, as well as deleting the batterystats.bin file and even ripping my tablet apart and reseating the battery connector. I've thought about replacing the battery, but the only battery i can find is from NewPower99 and that's $60.00, way too much for a battery in my eyes.
Plenty of battery`s on eBay.

me too in my tab s sm t700
battery life is die quickly in stock rom 5.0.2
Keep your screen brightness as low as usable, avoid white or light screens as they use the most power it is a disadvantage of oled displays, I keep my display on auto -5

Downgrade to KitKat, as the other day i upgraded to lollipop and the battery was dropping 1% every other min its a joke. So i downgraded to KitKat and it gives me easy 3 days use and that's heavy use T705!
How to downgrade t705 to kitkat
I use a built-in feature to keep the screen toned down. In the display settings, there is a reading more feature where I select the apps I primarily use, including my default launcher Nova Launcher, and it tones the screen brightness down while those apps are in focus. Like right now while I'm using the Tapatalk app.

Head over to http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/ download your firmware and flash using odin it's real simple!
Found this over at Android Central as last few days my battery has been all over the place, as it was fine before. Anyway my battery dropped to 5% turned it off. Waited a minute or so, turned it back on bat was showing 45% wow so i'm draining it again Ive let it drop to 5% again this is the 3rd run now its showing 42% crazy credit goes to rouge-hawkins
I had the same issue on my brand new Galaxy Tab S LTE version with Exynos chip. I was like WTF on the battery because the moment i disconnect it from the charger it would soon drop to about 85% in 5 minutes. Then the dropping continuous in huge leaps like from 70% down to 30% while i'm just browsing the web. Then when it came down to 5% it would turn off. The moment i plug in the charger while the device is off the battery level would start at 40%. It was erratic for 2 weeks. Good news is i was able to resolve this without doing factory resets.
What i did was the moment the battery came down to like 5% i completely turn off the tab and turn it on , the tab reported a higher battery level like 45% then i continued using and until it drops again to a lower level like 3%. I power cycled the tab again and it reported battery level at around 24%. I used it again until battery level went to 3% and rebooted it, then it reported 12%.. used it again until the device really wont boot anymore. Then i used a slow charger. I used the 1A usb charger from my other phone (while off) and waited until 100% full. Then things became normal.. it reports battery level fine after. I also installed Clean Master and disabled some background apps and Samsung bloatware that i really dont use. Everything is ok now and im happy with my Tab S 8.4... hope this helps for those who got their device over the holidays. I resumed using the 2.1A default charger and issue doesnt seem to repeat anymore.

ultra power saver mode eating battery

Experiencing strange problem with ultra power saving mode it is eating 5% battery overnight (frm 1am to 7am)in normal mode during day time battery is outstanding
What do the battery stats say about what app is causing the drain?
I read about a bug in Google music causing battery drain when using an Adblocker.
Perhaps battery saver mode triggers the same bug if it blocks internet access?
Look, i was just about to post a new topic about the same problem, heh
5am to 1pm, ultra saving mode activated by the switch on the left side panel.
51% down to 46% overnight. Dont u think it's insane considering it should go 0% ?
Im noot rooted yet or anything. It's my 4th day i use Lenovo P2
It was MM out of the box, right after i powered up my phone OTA asked me to isntal Nougat update, so i did.
Any ideas ? Im also not happy at all with overall baterry life. SOC is stucked at 1.67Ghz. like 85-95% of the time. It doesnt go into deep sleep which affects battery life 7-10h. I had more with Xiaomi phones and their 4100mAh batteries.
there is a drainfix.zip floating around. What does it do...exactly ?
