Screen on time

[bravo_alpha1]

You

So today I only got ~5 hrs SOT but I was in a bad reception area at work.
So I stick to my comment about getting 6 hrs SOT on average. Stock ROM, use Waze GPS, Amazon music, FB, IG, three emails syncing, Bluetooth synced to my Gear S3, location services on high accuracy. Misc app use like XDA, Android Authority, Snapchat, Samsung Pay, chrome, Samsung browser, theme store.
This FN phone is the GOAT!! End of story, kid.

What about screen brightness or screen timeout time?
If you have wifi, I would suggest turning airplane mode on and then connect your wifi. With AT&T they have "wifi calling" which means I can call and text using wifi. It helps.

I have auto brightness off.

I have already tried leaving the phone on with airplane mode and had a 5% drop during 8hours. Which suxx.. My phone would still be 100%

Am impressed to, was only getting 3 to 4 hours SoT, then tweaked phone according to this article (disabling apps etc.) https://www.xda-developers.com/the-...r-community-radically-improved-my-experience/ and now, after using the tweaks in the article I'm on 7 hrs SoT with 15% battery left, so very impressive imho.

Thanks for the link, i've wondered what to disable as i can barely get 3 hours of SoT so hoping this will help. I left Knox up so we will see the difference.

Is it mostly on wifi?

Amazing! Charged phone to 100% and used phone for 2 hours with 80% remaining. So, it could last 10 hours on screen time. Display set to 2k, auto brightness, and 4g on.

Well thats good for you, I'm still getting 3 hours of SOT

Only thing I really left on was my Knox just in case I decided to use Samsung Pay but dont think that will change it to 3-4 hours more of SOT lol

 

[Dannytk]

Heys guys,

I'm getting an average of 6h:30 SOT on my S8+ with 10/15% battery left.

 

[amakuramio]

My S7 Edge (new battery, 7.0 debloated) has at least 6 hr sot. After reading this thread I will refrain from upgrading.

 

[alexgarciac]
