2% per hour for rooted phone is very bad. In 10 hours you loose 20% battery, looks very bad too. If you open the 4g you loose 40%. I loose 2% every 10 hours and i have 95% kernel deep sleep. Your System have big drain in first picture. Debloat your rom and fix your bad wakelocks with amplify and with appops. Possible change your rom and your kernel if you are not rooted. If you are not rooted god bless you, or read the xda threads to learnd about the phones. All your apps have very bad wakeup issues. This apps run all the time and dont leave the phone to sleep. You use malware bytes into android.... the linux is not windows 10. You dont need this crap apps.
This sounds complicated.

I am not rooted. I plan to download BetterBatteryStats, but I have to do something in ADB first to make it work.

Now, since I am not rooted - what can I do?

You are obviously very wise. You must have some tips for me.

Much appreciated!

I can help you my friend you and anyone who have drain and bad battery life. All this apps who i will write, you can find this apps from the playstore. Expect Youtube Vanced and Adhell2. For more help you can pm me anytime.

1) Add Nova Launcer : Best and fastest launcer ever, reduce phone and animations lag. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teslacoilsw.launcher&hl=de_AT
2) Install Naptime with adb : Best Doze app for a better phone sleep. Check agressive doze. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.franco.doze
3) Remove apps from your phone like malwarebytes and antivures and ram managers. You dont need this craps. You have android 8 and soon 9 not android 3 and 4. Just unistall this noob apps.
4) Use Youtube Vanced : Best youtube with dark mode,background playback,and big support, low wakelocks, and many more. https://youtubevanced.com/non-root
5) Use opera browser : Have dark mode and 0 bad wakelocks like chrome and some other crap browsers. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.opera.browser
6) Remove ussles apps who dont use from your phone.
7) Use Appops app with adb : Helps to close the background apps who run without need it. And help to close some critical permissions like apps wake up, no boot, no stay awake at background. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=rikka.appops
7) Use adhell2. This app is the best app for the non root samsung phones. He can block the wakelocks,freeze apps,and improves the phones battery life very much. But he need to read the tutorial how to install. Is very easy.
8) Always use dark themes. Oled screens loves dark themes. White thems gives a battery drain and burn in sometimes. I dont recommend white themes for oled screens. Try to make the apps background dark too. With 3rd party themer apps.
9) Use screen resolution WQHD+ and lower the screen DPI and lower nova launcer animations too.
10) If you make all of my steps correct. Add the betterbattery stats app into the phone and follow the xda site tutorial how to find the bad wakelocks and the fix the drain. And you will see a very clean phone with low bad wakelocks and big battery life for sure. https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809

And If you're planning to use Adhell 2, I suggest disabling or turning off the following apps (It helps save RAM):

Note: Be careful on what you turn off, I recommend only turning off these things given below, DONT TURN OFF OTHER APPS as it might cause your device to not function well.

You will need to goto the Package Disabler Tab to do the steps below

General Apps:
1. ANT + DUT
2. ANT Radio Service
3. ANT + HAL Service
4. ANT + Plugin Service
5. (If you're using Youtube Vanced, otherwise leave this turned on) Youtube
6. 360 Photo Editor (if you don't have a Gear 360, otherwise leave this be)
7. (If you're planning to take Y000's advice on using Opera rather than Chrome) Chrome
8.
Bixby (Turn these off only if you don't use Bixby): (Bixby and Google Assistant are known to drain battery when idle, thanks to always listening options)
1. Voice Wakeup
2. Bixby Global Action
3. Bixby Home
4. Bixby Service
5. Bixby Vision
6. Bixby Voice
7. Bixby Voice Stub
8. BixbyVision Framework
9. Samsung voice input
10. SystemUIBixby

As for Google Assistant if you're using Okay Google feature anywhere on screen turn that off.

There are some other Bloatwares that could be turned off, but I don't think it would be a major issue regarding battery.

Enjoy :good:

I aggre. I freeze and change google apps and samsung apps with other apps. Because is junks for me and drainers. I will add some extra apps. Dont freeze or remove this apps with adhell2 because will cause issues and bootloops s7 Edge/Note8/Note9. If any have bootloop press volume up+bixby+power button for 15 seconds or volume down+power button for 15 seconds. The phone will open again.

Android System
System UI
IMS Service
IMS Settings
com.sec.ims
ImsLogger
Knox Enrollment Service
Perso
com.samsung.android.app.watchmanager
com.sec.enterprise.knox.attestation

How do I run things with ADB?

This is where you lose me. How do I operate this?

Of course, I did that - but it's not laid out in an easy way for a novice. Not that I could find. Can you?

I hope you can. Show me, please.
This is the tutorial link
https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/

windows 10 replace adb devices by ./adb.exe devices
Example command Naptime: adb -d shell pm grant com.franco.doze android.permission.DUMP (No)
./adb.exe -d shell pm grant com.franco.doze android.permission.DUMP (Yes)
I leave another tutorial
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ri8pZj9Bt6E
regards!
