Hi,
My battery life has been shocking since installing to 2.0 update and I want to revert back to a previous version. Can someone tell me if this is possible?

Yes the 1.5 files and instructions are in the same place on the dev site where you got 2.0
Before you downgrade, give a chance to the 2!
Anything else can cause battery drain.
I use 2.0 for months and my battery uses less than 3% per hour with always on screen.

Did you enable cloud sync over wifi? The last time I messed with that, my battery life plummeted to about 1/3 of its normal length. Putting 2.0 on my HWatch actually increased my battery life.
I've taken my phone off charge about an hour ago, and it's already at 80%. I've just disabled WiFi... But I can't see an option for cloud sync over WiFi.
I took my HW with DP5 off the charger 3.5 hrs ago. Still 88% left which is pretty normal IMO. Maybe you should just do a hard reset and pay attention to what apps you re-install afterwards`?

Now, 11.5 hrs after undocking, the battery is down to 69%. Quite impressive considering that I have used the watch in a normal way.

So recently my battery life went from absolutely amazing to terrible (just went from 100% to 83 percent with 30 min SOT and 3 hrs off the charger) does anyone know a good app that will tell me what the hell is digging through my battery life so bad? The only thing I have connected is the android wear watch, and surely that wouldn't hinder my battery life that much, would it? Thanks to anyone that replies, I just want my old battery life back.

Yes we have been talking this on the "At&t OTA" thread. Check over there, there are a couple small solutions people have. None have worked for me my battery life is HORRID post update. I've done a reset, cleared cache, etc

Mine has been terrible since the NK3 OTA as well. It's a shame that they couldn't just leave it alone. I was enjoying it so much more when I was squeezing 5 hours SOT.
after taking the NK3 update, my battery life was still amazing, until tonight. I didnt update anything (no app updates and no new apps installed) but my battery went from 50% to 30% in about 10 minutes. I cleared cache and rebooted and it went from 30% to 0% in about 15 minutes. I dont understand why all of a sudden, it died so quickly. Only thing I can think of is that I switched to ART about two days ago. It was fine until this evening, when the phone completely fell on its face. It was running extremely slow, even after I killed all running apps, thats when the battery dropped. I'm switching back to dalvik and we'll see what happens.

I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one experiencing this. This tells me that it isn't a rogue app.
OK guys, here is an odd question. What do you do for a living? Is there anyone that would benefit by listening in to your device? I know it sounds weird, but your phone may be active when you think it isn't, including the camera, mics, GPS etc. I get these unexplained battery drains too, and my wife has the identical device and near identical app setup (and we both have the update) and her battery is much better. Its one of only two things i can think of.
Here's the other: not using the supplied charger. I regularly use other chargers when my wife refuses to do so.
Anyway, just my mad ideas

In all honesty I went through and found a bunch of apps I personally don't use to disable, such as instagram and some other apps such as that, you may also want to see if your mobile signal is having issues or your wifi is having issues, both those items will cause battery drain, I turned off a bunch of apps and my phones been unplugged for almost 6 hours and I have over an hour of that as screen time, I'm down to 88%, I work at att so I'm always showing my phones off and demoing them, I disabled 21 apps I have no use fore and my free ram is just about a gig, you just gotta dig a bit to find what's always on.

Go to the thread where you disable Knox.. It has a adb command you can send to phone that disables close to 100 apps.. Try it and see if it helps.

Were you experiencing issues before?
not sure what you mean by bad.. every one's usage of the phone is different.. i was getting around 4 hours OST.. when using the phone regularly.. playing CoC, answering emails, whatsapp, messaging...
sometime i got 3 hours.. some time i got 5.. some time it ran away so i had to reboot.
i believe about 75% that disabling some of the software did help with battery life while the phone is sleeping. but i've only recently disabled bunch of stuff

Actually, the battery is quite good. Even with stock ROM. Even with .15 ROM (that's what I have right now).
But I have disabled Moto Display and few other things, perhaps this helps a bit.
You should try to find out what eats your battery. In worst case, try Factory Reset.

Unknown as you have pulled the stats just after unplugging the phone from power
Don't know if any one noticed but the moto g5 kernel has performance as the default scheduler. Not really the best for battery life at all.
Ever since upgrading to Android P (OTA) 3 days ago I've noticed the battery life is really poor. On Oreo I used to see only 1-2% drain overnight. Now I go to bed with full charge and wake up with only 60% left. The battery drains a lot faster when I'm using it as well.
I used to be able to get 6-7 hours SOT easily. Now I'm not even sure if I could squeeze 4 hours before the battery is flat.
Is anybody else seeing this? Or is this normal considering Android P just got installed and it needs time to "optimize stuff"? But then again, with Oreo I got awesome battery life from day 1.
Weird, I've gotten better battery life..
Better battery here
Interesting. I'll let it run a few more days and see if there's any improvement. Otherwise I'm going back to Oreo.

Give it some time, once adapative battery figures out your usage and adjusts accordingly, you should see better battery life

Try to factory reset ur device this may help
Thanks guys. I'll wait a few more days. If it doesn't improve will try a factory reset
I'm getting better battery life with Pie
Pixel 1 XL could last a long time. Pixel 2 XL was worse and the worst with Android P unfortunately. I upgraded from Beta, decided to factory reset since there was a bug with Wear OS eating the battery. Got a little better. Got some more little better disabling adaptive battery. I think Doze is still in Android P.
Anyway, it's still not that good. But decent.
I am having the same issue.
when I reboot the phone, the battery seems ok.
But when I start using the phone and open several apps, the battery starts draining quickly.
I installed magisk root, should I do a factory reset and not installing magisk?
I went from a day and 17 hours to 16 hours. This is definiately a piss-poor "improvement to battery life."

I'm not sure how much help adaptive battery is going to help. It's meant to limit background battery usage of infrequently used misbehaving apps. If that's not happening adaptive battery won't do much.

My battery life has been terrible. Today I unplugged at 93%. I've been off the charger for 9 hours with 4 hours screen on time. I'm at 23%. With Oreo that kind of usage would have me at about 40%.
I'd rather not have the hassle of having to do a factory reset but I might not have much choice.
It hasn't got any better since I reported the issue.
I think I'm going to flash Oreo instead of trying a factory reset as I doubt it would solve the problem. Maybe someone else could try and let us know.
I'll report back after flashing Oreo. Very disappointed. I thought this was the first phone I didn't need to tinker with all these stuff on. I was really happy with it until this issue came up.
So a few days ago I flashed Oreo only to have it tell me it couldn't find any of my backups on Google Drive during the initial setup. Of course, the backups were done when I was on Pie.
So I had to upgrade to Pie then factory reset. This time it found my backups.
Yesterday I managed to get 5 hours SOT with about 40% battery left. Life is all good now

looks like i'm going to have to do the same. It doesnt make sense how some people are getting better battery and other worse. Are there some of us running apps not 9.0 compatible? might be worth uninstalling everything and adding them back day by day. it'll take a long time though!

It appears I jumped the gun. The problem came back yesterday.
The phone loses about 4-5% battery per hour even on standby. I have no idea what's going on; I haven't installed any new apps and usage pattern hasn't changed either.
One very interesting fact I have discovered is that the issue appears to happen only when I'm on Wifi. When I'm mobile data, all is good. So the phone seems to be doing some funky stuff when it's on Wifi lol.
Oh well, I guess I will try to install BBS and see if I could find the culprit.

That is entirely possible. I guess we have apps that have not been written/optimized for Pie? That would explain why some people are not seeing the issue and some unfortunate ones like us are.
I factory-resetted the phone, the issue is still there. I don't have any strange app. It seems that it's just the system that is consuming the battery.
That's very strange I've had the complete opposite, battery life has improved, if reset didn't fix it monitor your apps for unusual battery usage and limit the background activity of battery consuming apps
Hello
from the current update at november, i got only 5 hours maximum of usage at my device, before, it was 7 hours maximum.
does someone else saw these battery drain on these update?
my device is without root and with stock.

Try to factory reset as a last resort.

Disable all syncing (unnecessary) crap and apps/system apps you don't use.
No extra drain here. I haven't done 7 hours in a long time but it is nearly 13 months old.

so after 13 months the battery is dead??it's not nexus 6P with battery problems..also, mine is 11 months
i don't need root for now so i guess it won't help me, factory reset maybe can help but i'm try to avoid it now...
sync is disable now for crap and yet..at the email field there is two syncs Gmail and edison email, is it make the problem?
and i understand from you guys that the november update isn't make something with the battery?
I wouldn't say 5 hours SOT is dead. Dead is off the charger it lasts only 5 hours. I still get through a 16 hour day fine with 4 hours SOT and 20% left. I'm just saying I haven't gotten 7 hours SOT in a long time. What matters is getting from morning to night without needing to do a top off. And there's nothing wrong with charging during a drive back home from work. Also, I did a factory reset in October as it's something I've been doing yearly with my phones. It helps somewhat (my "Full charge lasts about" estimates have gone up 2-4 hours) but it's not going to make miracles and turn the battery to day-1 level. For me, I do it to clear up things.

Here is another battery drainer to check. Pull down your notification shade and look for "nearby" if it's not there hit the edit button and add it to your quick toggles. Make sure it is off as that will be constantly looking for local advertising crap to serve up to you which costs you in battery life.
Hi all.

Battery drain, overnight is about 20%. I have disabled 5G, but not much improvement. Is this a defective unit? I'm on Vodafone. I'm still in return window.

I was gonna throw in the towel but now I'm getting 7h sot on 5g and 8-9 WiFi currently at 5h42 with 45% left been watching moves since 100%
Super happy now, but I'm scared to root having to wipe everything I do t wanna lose my battery sd variant
Try to flash firmware with Odin.

When the display is switched on, the phone discharges more slowly than when the display is switched off!

If he is on 2nd April update or above, the Wi-Fi drain issue was fixed.
However, now we have Bluetooth drain! But Samsung is aware and is planning a fix for the following update (or maybe later)

Exactly! I have noticed that Bluetooth drains a lot. How do you know that they're preparing update for it?

Because I'm the one who made the report, they found the issue using my report and told me they were gonna fix it next update or should I say "Fixed normally in a next update whose date is not specified" this is word for word what they told me

7-9 hrs SOT? Jesus. How on earth are you getting that. I too am on S22 SD variant. I consider myself lucky if I make it beyond 3 hours SOT

Tbh it kind of came out of know where
I updated to the xxv Vietnamese firmware for may update as it said it had stability fixes (AVDF) where as mine xsa Australia (AVDD) said only security, I flashed my csc though
Did a battery recalibration and it hit abother level
Adaptive battery on
All apps to sleep except fb, messenger, and emails etc
Got rid of all the bloatware I don't need
Used the galaxy app booster after updating
Manual brightness at roughly 50%
Adaptive display but 120 - 30hz instead of 48
A heap of bixby routines so I can keep location bt and nfc off till needed etc
Galaxy max hz app so phone sleeps as soon as it's off as well as changing Adaptive display while powersaving mode but changed it so 96hz - 30
I'm contemplating rooting but scared I'm gonna lose my good battery life after resetting
