Question Did anyone notice the huge standby battery drain? Any way to measure what causes it?

No idea what carrier hub is, never seen it. I'm using mobilcom-debitel who are using the Telekom (T-Mobile) network

This is the app and according to reviews its terrible.. Its Tmobile/Sprint system app

Carrier Hub - Apps on Google Play

A system utility for T-Mobile & Sprint, Now Part of T-Mobile devices.

Can't you just uninstall it? I never heard of needing an app for a SIM card (maybe ADB uninstall? If it doesn't let you on phone)

Yup that did the trick I was able to toggle off improve accuracy

I disabled AOD and any unnecessary account sync processes. It's only drained about 2% in standby the last 5 hours, but there are still some things to finish configuring.

Wow... I've never had that little drain in 5 hours..

Hell I usually see like 2% an hour even with the screen off and me asleep! You are quite lucky.

Anyways (OP) download the app called "don't kill my app" from the play store. You will find the info helpful.

Luck is accidental. What you get from 10+ years is experience.

Well then I guess when you hit 14 years things stop vanishing from your head. I've been using Android (with root/su) since the Summer of 2008. I was a Verizon tester for the HTC G1. Then in Oct of 2008 I gave the phone back (well it was the 3rd revision) and picked up my Dream at a Verizon store at launch. Then in Jan of 2010 I got my Nexus one and so on.

So experience isn't really the issue, the phone and it's garbage Samsung software is.

I think the drain is due to a bug in a racing game telemetry app. I'd just disable it when I'm not using it but I'm helping the dev with it so I have to leave it running.

I'm testing a few apps for developers actually. Clipto being my favorite because it's fantastic but it's likely my fav because I've essentially shaped the design and allot of the functions.

I do have some preloaded things I need to uninstall. No not disable... completely remove (like Bixby) and no I don't have root because I have the snapdragon version...sigh

I was also being a little hyperbolic, on this phone I've had 3% drain over 8 hours while I was asleep and that's with all the battery optimization crap Samsung does disabled.

This is definitely my last Samsung phone. I've had the note 8, 9, 10+ and now this and I just don't understand the love for Samsung that people have.

Their apps are terrible in many ways, they do cool things with hardware but then don't bother to properly use them because of the software.

The best example I can think of on this phone is the exterior screen. Why doesn't it have some options for notifications? Like a blinking dot or even edge lighting that you can setup like aodnotify. Instead the screen turns on then immediately turns off.

I really miss HTC phones. They always felt solid, they ran great because of well balanced hardware. They had good battery life for the time. They were simple to root... I remember rooting and installing recovery on the One M8. Plug it into your PC and click 1 button. Done..

Ok I'm rambling because I'm exhausted, it's 3am... I gotta stop lol.

I guess "10+ years" can easily be confused with about 10 years. It's a lot like rounding 13.5 to 14 for simplicity. "I also had the G1" if that makes it clearer.

I was only saying that having a good understanding of what needs to be changed and why more accurately fits the definition of experience. Call it luck if you must.

I guess "10+ years" can easily be confused with about 10 years, but being Jan 1 makes it hard to call the G1 14 years ago when it's only really 13.

Ok....

I wasn't trying to have a competition with you and yeah I know it was released in October but i had been using it as my daily with a flip phone backup since May...so close enough to 14 years.

I was just rambling from exhaustion. I haven't slept in 58 hours or eaten in about 27 so my thoughts just flowed. I came here for something else and just ended up in this topic because I'm on a flip3 (USA) that's had 12 since early to mid December.

I mean if you wanna have a competition over something we can... I apologize if I didn't properly interpret 10+ as 14... Or 13... But no sleep & a lack of eating does that to people. Pure insanity!

Lack of sleep and food also tends to make people irritable. That could explain the hostility, but doesn't really justify it. I hope whatever the reason is for your situation ends up being worth it.

First there was no hostility on my end. Please quote what you find hostile. You want a reason for my rambling? Sure why not...

My father died at 66 years old after suffering in the hospital for 5 months and he died right before Christmas.

Also going that long without sleep or food does justify being a little bit edgy. I'm human not a robot. That being said I wasn't hostile whatsoever.

I just said I also have plenty of experience with this kind of stuff. That's the nice way of saying I don't need to be treated like I'm clueless... I was a HTC G1 hardware tester. It doesn't make me king of the world nor did I imply that it did.

Another one even Samsung admits to be a source of drain is the edge panels. If you don't use them, it's best to kill the entire feature.

Nice. I use these but diont need them. There's an app called swiftly switch that does almost all what they do, just not as pretty.

 

[Blob Blobbed]

ticking on mobile aggressive switching in dev settings always improves mine. i have gfathered in unlimited plan doh

 

[MySelf_v1]

I didn't notice any drain overnight. When I went to sleep it was about 97%. Woke up at 94%. It's enough to me.
