Hi,

I have the following phone:

Samsung Galaxy S20 (SM-G988U1) Ultra 5G (SnapDragon) [Not Rooted]

Android 13 & One UI 5.1
(I run Nova Launcher)

I have both Avast AV and a Notification app that I use and which need to run all the time. For their Battery Usage, I set them both to "Unrestricted" and I did also Disable the "Remove Permissions if App is Unused" setting for both apps.

What's happening is that every time I Reboot my phone, I get a Notification from "Device Care", that says it put the apps to sleep because they were "sending unnecessary notifications and slowing down your phone".

The same thing is happening on my wife's Samsung Galaxy A71 5G phone as well (running same OS & UI as mine), so I know it can't just be my phone. Plus we bought them just a couple of months ago new.

Please help??? I wish to keep my hair in my head! :)

Thank You!

Dave

Disable global power management.

Developer options>standby apps, when global power management is disabled all bucket states show as active.

Otherwise optimize the phone by dealing with apps on a case by case basis. Limiting data and battery use in the individual app settings doesn't effect global power management. Use Package Disabler or adb edits to kill unneeded apps that are using excessive battery and do not respond to more civilized methods of control.

You're welcome... Welcome to XDA

Stock Samsung's are a handful until you optimize them. It makes a huge difference in heat generated, SOT and speed.

Just don't go too nuts disabling apps. Target the power hogs that aren't useful or needed by you.
Be very careful with many smaller Samsung system apps; most only run when needed, consume little battery and provide UI functionality, appearance, usability
