Oh, yea i forgot the screen off thing. Maybe you are right.
Anyway did you ever estimate your battery life, i did it with accu and after 5 charges, it says 3600, 104%. Is it possible, or its an error.
Im working on mine I have a s8 But I would assume they charge similarly just my capacity is 3000
im waiting for mine to show

If you go off of this thread
My current cycles are at 0
and my total capacity if multiplied by 2 is 2980
6 months old so I have lost a total of 20 mah off top of total battery cap

40 cycles
and 3522 at capacity. As i said, i have bigger battery then specs :))

How do you have 0 cycles?:D
where im rooted if you read accu battery charging to 80% is like .06 wear cycles
Im a snap dragon user so with root comes the abillity to only charge to 80%
My stock custom setup i made runs efficient enough to only drain me to about 45 % or more on good days so thats where i charge say 35% to 80% optimum habbits for longevity of any lithium ion battery
So .06 charge cycles is 6 hundreths at that current it would take me a lot of charges at my current habbits to make a full charge cycle if im doing my math right

Instead of going through folders and searching files you can just download the app "Phone Info Samsung" and go into the "Personal" tab and there you can see your battery cycles and battery health. The app actually read this info from the files in the battery folder and show it to you. It's much more easy in my opinion.

Charging Speed

Fast charging is fast when it works, but using my Samsung certified cable and brick, the device sometimes "slow charges." This happens about 78% of the time when I plug it in, and the only remedy I know of is to keep re-plugging it. "Slow charging" usually takes around 36 hours to charge from 5%.

My cell phone is giving trouble to charge. It only loads when you want, I tried to change the adapter (I took an old one from j7 and it worked for a few days) today it does not want to load. But I can load other phones with the s8 + adapter and the problem is not in the cable because at the moment I'm having to load the phone through the nootebook. Can someone help me please?
