I would put these into the first post but I don't really want to end up supporting these things long term. Hopefully this will just provide the kickstart this community needs to do amazing things.

TIME TO ROOT GUYS

Rooted my phone yesterday and my phone has not been in deep sleep all morning. I unplugged it this moring around 9 am and 5 hrs later my phone has been awake for 5 hrs. So as of right now, yes I can confirm that my phone has not been in deep sleep since I rooted.

you are the 2nd person to confirm this to me..... I wonder if is only happening to tmobile edges since we have to use the wrong root file ??? or is happening to the other edges that have a correct root file ????
seems like I'll wait to root specially now with the built in battery

I decided to start fresh and will wait for a fix on this root issue. Hopefully it comes soon.

I can confirm this as well. My battery life is atrocious with everything disabled (google now, location, wifi, etc)...less than my Nexus 5 with everything enabled.

Same here

Here's a great guide if you guys decide to unroot and start over. Make sure you guys thank the OP of that thread.

I'm not sure how to actually confirm it for you, but my phone has been off charge for 2 hours, and I am at 98%.
I bought the phone on Friday, ran the OTA that popped up as soon as I powered on whilst still at the store, came home and rooted. Disabled a bunch more bloat, but the battery wasn't great. It was iPhone territory.
Yesterday, I started over with a full KiES install that included that OTA. I rooted again and then re-installed everything from TB. This has seemed to make a marked improvement. That said, tomorrow will be a true to test of the battery as It's a work day, I'm travelling, and I'll be roaming up in Canada.

This is very helpful - thanks! Please, if you think of it, let us know how Monday goes? Appreciate it!

I looked a little bit more through this thread and saw that CPU Spy app, so I ran it, and I am deep sleeping after root. Please do note, however, that I have WiFi set to always on, one of my email accounts in Nine is set to not sync at all during off-peak hours (which includes the weekend), and the other one only syncs every two hours during the same period.
I will definitely still update on Monday as it will be punishing.

So you are rooted and going into deep sleep ??? Just want to be 100% sure before rooting my device

FWIW, that is how I understand it. I think I'm going to take the plunge, using the CF-Auto-Root-zerofltetmo-zerofltetmo-smg920t file. Would love if someone out there could tell me that I am on the right track!!

Correct. Clean flash is a must, however.

This is where I am confused. Define (please) "Clean Flash". I did a restore using SS a few hours ago, but have since restored data, apps, etc. Please elaborate. Thanks.

Deff didn't work for me...... I had perfect deep sleep over 4 hrs of screen time...... I had done the samsung smart switch now rooted and yeap no deep sleep at all stuck at 400mh all the time

Battery Life dreadful after ITL41F

Hi Everyone,
I was wondering whether anybody else has experienced this side effect of the ITL41F update? My battery life has been really really good, much better than that of my HD7. I was really chuffed with it. Along comes the ITL41F update, and since then the battery will drain itself on standby. Nothing has changed on my phone. I have not installed any new apps or made any settings changes (such as sync frequency, etc). So the only difference is the ITL41F update.
To give you an idea, If I charge the phone in the late afternoon, and then pretty much leave it alone, by the morning it will have gone down to 15% battery or less. This morning I plugged it in again, and now it's down to 50%. And I only sent a single txt message and didn't do anything else on the phone. This is properly rubbish.
Anybody know where I can report this bug to Google/Samsung?

You have a lot of awake time without your screen been on which seems a little strange.

I would say your mobile signal is using up a lot battery. when it is yellow that means its weak, and grey means no signal. Since this is the main 2 colours on your chart I would say this would be the main reason for your battery drain

How would someone go about improving that? My mobile connection is mostly yellow as well. Could APN settings help that? Or would I have to go about flashing a different modem and all that

Are you seriously asking that question?
You improve your mobile signal but getting your network provider to install another mast, or switch to a different network with better coverage in your area.
If you could improve signal with APN settings or flashing a different radio it would be done like that from the factory!
WEll, I have a LG Optimus One and use franco kernel with it, and am soon buying a GN because he develops for it too, SO:
FLASH FRANCO KERNEL!
DOnate him a beer before and ten after the WOW-experience you'll get when you realise 4 days later that your battery is only 10% becuase of the popup.
And now read my words again.
It's the best option!
Your phone was awake for more than 50% of the time. If you really didn't use it, there's most likely a rogue app which is preventing phone from going into deep sleep.
Use an app like System panel to locate the culprit.
nevermind - delete me
Thanks for the fast replies guys, it's much appreciated! =)
What I find puzzling is that absolutely NOTHING has changed on the phone, apart from the update. So if there was a rogue app that was consuming the battery, it should have exhibited that behaviour before the update, right?
I will check with system monitor though, to see if I can spot something. The strange thing I noticed is that the OS is consuming *more* battery than most other functions. Even on standby.... weird!
After finally getting the patch I can't say the battery has been worse. In fact it seems to be better. Although I think that is down to the fact I've been through a few charge cycles now.
click on android OS, and check out the awake and CPU times. The cpu time should be a fractions of the time awake.
example, my phone has been on this charge for 22 hours (still 36% battery left.. didn't use it too much this charge). the leading battery drain is screen at 51% (2.5 hours awake time), and the 2nd leading item is Android OS which has the following:
CPU Total - 18m 53s
Keep Awake - 4h 46m 9s
I'm just curious on why your CPU total was in relation to the awake time by Android OS.
Mines great.

its funny how many similar theads appear everytime a phone gets updated. And most of them all go down to user error.
Just saying. my Gnex is fine after 11F update, OP should probably do a wipe
Guys, I'm not ruling out 'user error', but at this moment in time I cannot see what I could have possibly done to cause it. I have purchased System Panel on the Market and I'm running it in monitoring mode to see if it can shed some light on the issue. Strangely, 'Cut the Rope' and 'Exchange' are running constantly and as a service. Not necessarily consuming CPU while the phone is asleep though. Just though it would be strange for a game to be running as a service? Must be a reason for it....
Ask the developper of "Cut the Rope" why does it need to run that way. Exchange is run as a service because you probably need it.
Anyways, you can try a clean flash with stock ITL41F. But i'd say apps are to blame

Did you factory reset after the update? If not I realize it sucks to do, but.....that's the road I would venture down.....have yet to own a Samsung that it wasn't almost mandatory to do. Always a battery and sleep issue.

I'm using this phone on t mobile usa on my battery life is the same just like before the update.

Can Probably Run AT&T Optimus G ROMs!

So houstonn hasn't replied to my PM, but I think it'll be a good idea to share this with the community. Everyone go thank houstonn! DO NOT THANK ME.
MOD EDIT: Do not post PMs!
So basically... Download AT&T ROM, which in my case was SnowJB. Then I also downloaded houstonn's JB port. Then I opened up the ZIP file and drag and dropped boot.mg from houstonn's ROM and dropped it over in the ZIP file or SnowJB. Repacked the ZIP file and flashed it on my E971. So far, everything works, such as camera, the 32GB of storage, and WiFi. I haven't tried making calls yet or using 3G/LTE.

Out of that time, how long in total was the screen on for?
I seem to get over 15 hours total with around 4-5 hours of on screen time medium usage.. Im on the v03 jb rom.
I can get 3 days with 20 minutes or so of screen on time each day
I think calling works. I can text, and well, I was getting signal from the moment I flashed it. There's no green LED though
I didn't check, I'll do a test now that I'm back at work and see how the battery does. Will post back

That would definitely explain the duration your battery could last.
Im on over 15 hours now, 3+ hrs on screen time with 22% remaining. That said I was playing dungeon hunter for a while last night and that wiped my battery down a good 30% befote bed.
Im also in learning mode using the batteryguru from qualcomm which is taking some battery and causing some wakelocks.

It was only because I was at home the whole day, so only texting and Whatsapp.
Anyways, calling works. But I want my green LED back! And there's something wrong with my modem.. Gonna need to reflash it.
With on and off during the day, including some browsing and txting, display use 21 mins Auto Brightness, 78% left. Run Time 12 H exactly as of this post lol
What seems to be different ever since i flashed to the CM 10.1 Mod was that the android system no longer stays awake ALL THE TIME...Now it actually kicks into sleep mode.
I remember people have been complaining about the OS or System would take up the most %.
Let's say if I had 12 h run time, Android OS or System would be awake for 12H...now it's been awake for only 1.5h
Did you turn off Fast Dormancy?

Yeah you have to turn it off for your carrier. Not for AT&T.
For Rogers you have to make the value 0 for 302720.
Check screen shot for location. Then you have to open telephony.db and dcm_settings and change the value for your carrier to 0.
You may need sqlite manager to edit.

Yes. I have deep sleep working fine after rerooting but I also am running the stock recovery file Posted here.
http://zidroid.com/download-t-mobile...tock-recovery/
I have probably rerooted a slew of times for for various reasons. Last method was to first restore stock firmware using Kies method. It will ask for your serial number. If you can get to download mode, puch home key and wrote down serial number you will see there. Ther serial number for your phone is NOT the IME number which Samsung as well as TMobile kept telling me was the correct serial number. On top of that, First level support asked me to remove my battery to finde serial number under the battery. LOL....great support we pay for
seems to be working really good for me so far
havent truely tested the phone out
last night i factory reset my phone rooted then flashed stock recovery then wiped cache
set up my phone disables some bloat
the night before the phone died while i was sleeping
last night it barely dropped 1% so deep sleep is working
right now im at 39% phones been on for 12h 13m since last charge
and i have 2h 30m on screen time,
need to do some more testing. a couple more charge cycles should make it right
how are u guys charging your phone? letting it die then letting it charge to a full 100? or what
Getting pretty decent life myself.
Just look at this
I didn't watch any movies, just plain browsing, couple of messages, 25 minutes gaming and using some apps (Facebook, google + and a couple of news apps).

good stats from your end... but i seem to be having an issue after I:
took OTA
then rooted
went back n flashed stock FW
rooted again
I fully charge last night around 11pm, and woke up around 5:30am and battery was down to 91%... Just now i had to fully charge again since I was down to about 10% ... Any ideas??
UPDATE:
Don't know if this fix the battery drain issue.. But after rooting, flashing back stock FW and rooting again over the weekend the battery took a massive hit. Just last night with about 78% i decided to odin the Stock Recovery. I went to sleep with 76% and woke up to a 74% battery. I guess the stock recovery worked --- but then on my 2.5 hour commute i left the house with 73% and when i check back at my office i was at 55% (browsing, FB and soundcloud player on) I guess that's normal ???
Completely stock and happy with the battery life.
Loving my battery life! Rooted, custom kernel and twrp

Battery life issues still continuing after 6.0 update

The 6.0 update still has battery issues. Removed my watch from the charger at 6:45am...it's now 10:45am and it's down to 65%. Not acceptable life. Anyone else having these issues?
Try factory reset. Then run it down until it dies to recalibrate the battery. It worked for me. Hope this helps.
Having same issue, no apps installed besides Keep. No changes made to settings, except turned off accelerometer to turn screen on when twisting hand. Already did 2 factory resets, I do not know what to do anymore. Of course, ambient screen is off. It barely lasts 10h. Most ****tiest battery I have ever seen on any device. Maybe 6.0.1 is bugged, but I'm thinking if I should load 5.1.1 manually if it's better and lose my warranty, or just freakin' return it.

The fist couple of days, I had the same issues. .. I would get about 8 to 10 hours... it sounds kind of weird, but really no kidding give it a couple of days to optimize it self , after draining the battery to like 10 % or so, do a factory reset and wait till it completely run out of power... let the thing die completely so that the battery recalibrates... at least that's what did it for me... I get over 24 hours everything on except ambient mode... I'm on marshmallow. .. CREDITS TO ( STEVER87 ) this really worked for me... it will work for you too.

You have a great gadget in your hands... STEVER87'S advice worked for me...follow his advice and you'll see a dramatic improvement... just give the watch about 1 to 2 days to get optimized.
I think I "fixed" mine, just when I was about to return it. I changed my phone from a meizu to a xiaomi and the drain stopped, weirdly. It seems that it does matter with what device it's paired with. Now I finish the day with 50% battery.
I've had great battery life after the Marshmallow update. I take my watch off the charger around 7:00 AM and don't need to charge until around 10:00 PM the next day (approximately 40 hrs). I have about a dozen apps installed and have Ambient screen, Tilt to wake screen, Gestures and Wi-Fi off.
My watch wont drop below 12%/h . i tried probably every trick there is to find to extend the battery (Factory reset watch and/or phone, instal previous versions of android wear). For every method i've tried i Let the watch settle for a couple of days. 8 to 9 hours Max Without touching it. Is my watch faulty?
I keep a charging pad at work too give it done extra juice when needed

My watch wont drop below 12%/h . i tried probably every trick there is to find to extend the battery (Factory reset watch and/or phone, instal previous versions of android wear). For every method i've tried i Let the watch settle for a couple of days. 8 to 9 hours Max Without touching it. Is my watch faulty?

hi vensterbank,
did you solve your problem with battery life? Mine is running out of power in about 7 hours!

Its still the Same. Tried Different roms and kernel's. Even tried it a while on my girlfriend's Z1 Compact. I'm going to return it at the retailer for repairs. I really think mine is faulty

Question Battery faulty?

Hey guys.
Just switched from S21U to this sweet baby and so far I am missing nothing from Samsung. Besides the good battery life.. I got with the galaxy S3 better SOT In idle I loose so much, it's incredible. I thought its A11.. no updated to A12.. no installed A13 Beta 2 and still crap battery life.
I disabled everything that Google or YouTube suggested me already but nothing helps. I restored my backup from the cloud (the switch from Sammy to o+1) can that cause poor battery life?
I am thankful for any help or tips.

Maybe one/some of the radios (wifi/BT/NFC/GPS) are on?
I'd suggest starting with charging the phone to 100%, then putting it in airplane mode for 12 hours (say for the night), then see it: if the battery looses more than a few percent, then there is indeed something wrong with it. If not, then it's just a matter of time that you'll figure what drains the battery.

Dude that is one of the best ideas I've ever read when it comes to checking out a battery thank you for this...
I'm having issues with my 9 pro draining again myself...
last time I had this problem I did a factory reset and it really helped a lot with battery drain...

I myself did a factory reset last time I had a battery drain issue w/ my 9 Pro and it helped a lot..
First definitely try what @viktak recommended and then go from there..
I personally do not have a lot of stuff running in the background like sync, back up, find my device, and definitely don't have stuff like Instagram or Facebook running on my phone.
a poorly designed app can hog up your battery...
also what did I do to help a lot is my phone is rooted of course so I have SD maid pro and with that I can check and see what all is running on my phone..
Under developer option under running services it will tell you the basic services that are running but it's not going to tell you everything that's running on your phone...
Hopefully you get it figured out and yeah Oneplus is so much better than Samsung.. I know it's an opinion but I just can't stand using a Samsung devices after using a OnePlus...
I bought the Samsung Galaxy S8 Ultra tablet a month ago and don't get me wrong I freaking love that thing it is badass but I would love it a lot better if Oneplus would make a tablet like that. lmao
It really bugs me that you pay a hugh chunk of money for a samsung phone and it being paid off, Samsung says no-no you can't unlock your bootloader to customize YOUR phone....
try going into settings/battery and look for what is eating it up. that might help to!

yeah I agree..
I tell you what saved me is having ADB and Fastboot for Android ndk Magisk module...
it's nice man being able to hook my 9 pro up to this Samsung tablet and remove the bloatware just by using termux...
first thing I got rid of was Samsung's digital well-being.. man what an intrusive app!!
sorry OP for off topic....
Hey guys!
Thanks a lot for your advices. I will try putting in airplane mode tonight and check tomorrow. I will try resetting my phone if it drains while in AP mode.
I can send it back to Amazon within 2 remaining weeks.. when I root and unroot, will something like Knox be triggered?
Thanks so much <3

OnePlus doesn't have anything like Knox. If you factory reset and re-lock bootloader it's back to factory state. (Knox was awful, I don't miss Samsung.)

Even if the phone is rooted, OnePlus accepts returns.
If you are not successful in your attempts to find the culprit, you can use BetterBatteryStats from HERE, read the first couple of posts in that thread and generate an idle dump file as described there. It can be posted in that thread for help mentioning the airplane mode result also.
The airplane mode result is the bottomline, below which you can't go and if that is high, return the phone.
So a quick update:
i have not lost any percent battery during flight mode (10 hours)
Had then over the day almost 5 hours SOT and still had more than enough battery. (yeeey)
I live in Germany and work in Switzerland and right next door is France and my guess is that when automatically selecting network, as it is set by default, it switches all the time between the countries.
However, when I tested this with flight mode, I was on the home network and I assume there were no switches, which is why my battery got through the day better
I'm back at work right now and have manually selected the Swiss network this time and I'm very curious to see what percentage I'll have at the end of the day.
Does roaming drain a lot of battery that much? Can I check without root what consumes the most energy? BBS needs root, right?

No. If root is not available, you can grant the required permissions via adb. After installation, when the app is opened, the permissions screen pops up and guides you. Ofcourse, if root is available, it is only a matter of allowing root permission.
