Location settings with Android OS 9 update issues? - Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers

The setting for MOBILE NETWORK only locations is missing. Anyone know if it's just buried or did they take that setting out completely? Just got the OS 9 update a week or so ago. Medium battery saving still has GPS running. Battery drain is starting to happen. US AT&T Snapdragon version here.

I believe you can access it here, well for just GPS only.

Miscommunication going on with Limey. I do NOT want my GPS on at all but I found the article above already. No way to turn off the gps where you sent me. WTF GOOGLE?! Some of us do not want high accuracy turned on all the damned time. It sucks your battery life away! I went from more like 26+ to less than 20. Think about all those people out there that don't have 4000 Mah batteries? They are going to be @SS out if luck!

Are you using primarily WiFi or a 3G connection?
Wifi..but I don't think that is the problem..i even have auto sync off..the phone has been in deep sleep for so long but there is no Idle in the Battery stats..not even 1%!

[Q] Battery drains over night, BetterBatterySTats... stats

Hi there, until a few days ago I had great battery life with my Razr i, but I noticed that now it drains about 10 to 15% over night.
So I get BetterBatteryStats on the store but I am not really familiar with it, so I'm asking for your advices.
I can see that for a 7h25 period of time, my phone has been in Deep Sleep for 6h7 and Awake for 1h18.
1h18 is quite a long time so I guess the lead is good, but I can't really understand wich app is causing the issue.
Here are the sceernshots (next time I'll resize them :cyclops :

Ok as an update, wl1271_wake seems to be wifi activity, so I guess one of my apps is dealing with several transfers at night (1h08).
Any way to identify the app causing this ?
I thought about an app that monitors wifi and mobile data network activity, do you know a good one ?
Google now is disabled on my phone, but maps is not (I use it every day).
I don't remember having installed a new app or updated any app the day the issue appeared...
Another update :
What bothers me is the line "GTALK_ASYNC_CONN_com.google.android.gsf.gtalkservice.AndroidEndpoint", Google talk is disabled on my phone (and have been before the issue happens), any way to prevent this service to run ?
I guess it's included in "Google Services" and market/maps will not work anymore if I disabled it...
Anyways, not sure if the issue come from there as it's written to have ran for only 1m9 during the night.

I do use it a lot, it just seems unusually high. It's normally below screen, but not in the past week.
Having the same issue as you. On Nexus 5 though. Android 5.1.1.
Some websites are saying people are facing this issue when they're off wifi and using mobile data. I am always on wifi though. Uninstalling all Chrome updates fixed this issue for me, although now I am on a much older version. Let me know if you found a better fix.

Factory reset did the trick, but don't know how long that will last.

Here's what I did yesterday and Chrome has been really good for the last 24 hours which has been the longest streak so far.
Uninstalled all updates, cleared all data, installed the update, then opened it and logged in.

With you on that one. This phone has to have one of the worst sleep battery drain I've seen. Seems like an unfinished product with unpolished crappy software

Agreed
I'm surprised there has been no software update with the gs7 series there were quick updates
Looks like the same bug from gs6 and gs7 are still present
Android os usage went down after I disabled wifi calling rather set it tp prefer cellular
LOL. Im a S7E user and I came here to read up on the new Note before I blew an Upgrade on Demand on it. The first thread I click on and it looks like the same battery problem still plagues it to this day. If you all are looking for a fix then I'm sure the S7 fix I posted a few months back will work. You can look throug my profile to find it. It should fix the "stay awake" issue.

I have no problem on mine, about 4% drain during 7 hr sleep. Once I disable programs I don't use I'm hoping for 2% drain, the same I'm getting on my old phone. I do manually kill programs I don't use often and I don't have any sync, auto updates etc. so that helps.

Questions on battery usage

I'm new to this device and a little dismayed at the poor battery performance.
I don't consider myself a heavy user but find the battery is almost depleted after 8 hours of so, after being charged.
I can't find a SCREEN ON TIME in the settings so not sure how much screen time I'm getting.
I have received the September update, shortly after getting the phone.
Do any of the custom ROMs offer better battery life?
thanks
If you went into settings>battery it should be there
