Here's my proof. Was never able to achieve more than 3ish hrs SoT before monitoring brightness.

I don't disagree with what you're saying, what I am saying is that there are people claiming 5hrs SoT which I was never able to achieve even with low usage and I discovered something that may be of help to others. There's a reason why I still went back to give the PX4 a chance even after...

Happy Thanksgiving guys. I had given up on this phone, went with the iPhone 11pro and have been loving the 6+ SoT without needing to manual manage it's performance. Anyway, I gave my px4 another chance and I think I finally discovered why some people claim 4hrs+ SoT, they must be keeping their...

Freaking amazing. That's hopeful! ---------- Post added at 01:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:15 PM ---------- Something I've noticed that your data symbol has an X showing you manually disable LTE even though you have it set to turn off while on wifi through developer settings...

Everything else I have the same as you except the app and I don't do lift to wake, only tap. Will try the ad blocker app and report back

That's super good endurance! Did you disabled anything out of the box?

A FP reader can also be used with opened or closed eyes. ? Not sure about the commotion on this.

Hey, point taken. My morning routine is usually unplug at 6am, listen to music as I get ready and when I exit the door at 7am I'm at 92% with my GP3. With GP4 I'm down to 85%. I guess since you're coming from an even ****tier experience than of course this is a better one haha ;) I have a...

I am averaging 30% per 1hr of SOT today. Was hoping at least for it to be 20% per hr. Really ****! I miss the finger print reader a lot too. Can't believe I'm considering sticking with the GP3. Usually I'm all about staying on top of the latest models. ---------- Post added at 06:51 AM...

I love the P3 size so I went with the P4. I had the 2XL and 3XL and they just were too big overtime and I feel like the screen to body ratio is silly on them. Battery sucked on my P3 and so far it sucks as well on my P4.

It's the P4.

It's ok Only my first full day and I disabled all smart gestures. Went ahead and forced 90hz screen as well. It should improve a little after a couple days hopefully.

Nice I had most of those disabled but some not. Hopefully I can get some good sot like you. Of course I know all experiences are based on usage, I work in IT so I am pretty observant of these things. I'm also spoiled worry p30 pro - don't need to disable/worry about anything and I can get 7+...

What settings are those? I average 3-4hrs sot on my px3

If it's in fact true that the battery is the same or smaller than the pixel 3, I think Google has made it clear they don't want ME as a customer. I love pixel but their battery performance is ****. I am loving my p30 pro but I want a smaller device, so I may just get an iPhone 11 pro if this...

I got almost 9 hrs yesterday. Loving the battery performance!

I can second this, it's normal. Samsung's have it as well. It's kind of like clouding/morphing on an edge lit LED screen - some don't accept it. It depends on how much it bugs you. My p30 pro has it, noticed it immediately on first startup, you start noticing it less and less over time. My...

My battery started sucking again today. Wish I didn't buy this damn phone.

S10+ duos here and I followed the reset settings and wipe cache. Seemed to do the trick for me. I also downloaded package disabler+ and disabled all bloat. Will post a picture later after a full cycle but it's 6pm here and I'm at 49% with 3hrs of sot. Unplugged it at 6am.

The only wide camera is on the back, not on the front. Can you find any article saying it's a wide camera on the front? I saw one of the YouTubers think it was and even said "it doesn't really get wide" and that's because it's purpose is not to capture wide pics. I am absolutely excited for...

The extra camera on the S10+ model is not a wide camera, it's a depth camera. It's suppose to be for better portraits. You are thinking it's a camera like the pixel 3 where it actually has a good purpose. I am on the fence about going with the S10+ for this reason, the dual camera on the front...

After DEc update, my battery sucks. Now I only get 3-4hrs.

Happy I'm pretty impressed. I have the pixel 3 and SoT is about 3.5-4hrs and I had read a lot that it was better than the p3xl. I got the p3xl on Tuesday, battery was kinda weird some days but today I am super impressed. Hardly used wifi as well and always has gps on.

Lame. I love this feature, I thought it was native to Android 8.0

Anyone know if this setting is hidden somewhere?

Thanks a lot for your tips, I did the following: Battery saver - only reduce screen 10% Gps- battery saver option Developer options - turn off the data always on even when on wifi And it seems I should be able to get to 6hrs based on this usage! I have the duos exynos variant.

Is there a way to set up fi only for data but use my physical T-Mobile SIM to receive calls? I only want fi for data but T-Mobile for everything else. This is what you can do with dual SIM phones, hoping it's possible.

Unfortunately you can't check this unless you're rooted in think. I am too lazy to root, I feel I shouldn't need to root an Android phone in this day and age, especially a pixel. I'm just gonna wait it out until the s9 comes out.

Sorry I forgot to mention that, I did reboot it after turning off wifi. Twice actually lol.

1) turned off wifi 2) left phone charging overnight 3) at 100% removed charger 4) turned on wifi for about 30mins (battery went down to 93%) 5) left house Now I am back home.

Unfortunately did not do anything for me. Maybe I'll do a factory reset and try again. Before I was getting like 1hr of SOT per 10%, now it's 1hr per 20%. I wish I never did the stupid 8.1 update.

I will give this a shot tonight, thanks for the tip. I sleep while streaming music and unfortunately there's no unlimited data plans in South America so I always have WiFi on overnight while I sleep. But I am hoping this does work!

My battery life got worse after disabling those scanning settings for Bluetooth and wifi lol

I think your battery life is pretty good! Look at my ****ty battery after 8.1 68% with only 1 hour of SOT.

My battery is **** since 8.1, glad I found these options thanks to you guys. I lose 20% battery life for 1 hr of SOT, super bad. I'll let you know if it improves.

Few weeks later and still getting a piece of **** battery life. This is so lame.

I am going to test out the U11+. Unfortunately after 8.1 my battery sucks and just using that as an excuse to swap phones. 8.0 battery was excellent, hopefully they fix that asap for those affected.

Unfortunately, maybe a slight improvement where I lost 9% instead of 10-12% on the same usage. Guess this badboy is going back and going to try the U11+.

Thanks a lot... Was hoping I didn't need to get on a PC. I feel like we're in a day and age with Android where this shouldn't be necessary. I discovered an option in developer settings where it seems "keep mobile data on " whole on wifi which I am hoping is the culprit to my battery issues.

Hey, can you tell me how you were able to uninstall rcsservice? My option is greyed out.

Hi Everyone, I think I may of found the culprit. In developer options there is ""keep mobile data on on wifi" which I believe maybe was disabled for 8.0 and then enabled on 8.1 Just discovered this tonight, I also factory reset my phone, clear all Google play services memory and force...

In a sense I am happy to read that others have the same experience because hopefully then Google notices and fixes this. How can we give this feedback? I am able to still make it a day but now I have to be conscious about my usage and before I didn't have to worry at all.

Hello, I've had my xl2 for about 2 weeks ago and just got the 8.1 update 3 days ago. I have a pretty strict morning routine when I wake up and unplug my phone pretty much the same time every morning and do the same things on it. Prior to 8.1, I'd lose about 3-4% every hour and now after 8.1...

Anyone else experience input lag especially when deleting words? I haven't experienced this kind of lag for about 2 years worth of flagship phones. Both htc stock and Google keyboards have the same behavior for me.

kies 3 I had the same experience with note 4 battery and after a few days it got better however I also reset the phone through kids 3. I can't do that now with the edge because I think since it's not released yet it won't detect it.

miss my z3 The battery is horrible on mine. Got 2hrs of screen time before it got to 5%. I would go back to my z3 and return this but square phones feel weird now.

Hello was wondering if anyone knew where I could purchase a z2 locally in NYC?

That's ridiculous. I'm just gonna keep mine, good luck to you buddy. I won't be keeping this phone too long anyway.

Did you have to ship back first to get a replacement? Mine is super flimsy, but I'm lazy to have to swap back to a micro sim if I have to ship back first. I can hear the key move when I move the phone, even makes a noise when the phone vibrates.

well now that I am rooted, any recommendations to do to the phone? lol
