Question Battery details - Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra

Comrades, I have been using the device since Feb 8th and still can't find the detailed battery usage..when I check it, the app says learning usage patterns...how long will it be learning?

Usually takes 3 or 4 cycles, but think it depends on how much you discharge. You can still access the detailed usage by clicking on the graph under 'Usage since last full charge'

It took mine several days.

Ok thanks..there's a lot of learning on One UI. I was on Oxygen OS and Pixel before that..it was all just very simple then...

[Q] What to do Against battery drain?

I now have one week to the Nexus One bought secondhand. It suits me perfectly stand alone I have a little trouble with the battery life of the phone. Morning when the phone is 100% and I come out of school (14:30 hours) the battery is still around 20%. I find this a bit short. Ok, I'll use him at school (bit Internet, twitter refreshes every 9 minutes)
There is an automatic task killer, and that helps a bit but I think there are about 80% after 8 hours battery life is a bit much. Me internet is also constantly and I really like to keep.
The battery is probably not because I've got 2 batteries and they both give the same result.
Anyone have any idea what I can do?
I've been a bit inet searched but not really found anything. I did see somewhere a separate battery behind the phone, but I'm not waiting because that makes him a bit heavier and uglier.
10% per hour is pretty poor battery life. Are you running stock Android? 3rd party firmwares can give you much better battery life (the latest versions of CyanogenMod are using less than 1% per hour when fully idle).
But there are things you can check. Have you looked in Settings -> About phone -> Battery usage? If you are using Gingerbread and you look at the graph, if there is a solid line (or mostly solid) next to the "awake" portion, it means that your phone isn't properly entering its low powered state. Download spare parts from the market and check out partial wake usage under the battery history section of that app.
Please post your screen on time value from the battery menu so we can see how long your screen is on.
I would say to go and disable background data. Disabling this will definitely improve your battery life. Of course, you aren't going to get you twitter updates but aside from that, the battery life should improve.

While it is true that battery life would improve if Background Data was disabled (or limited via a program like Juice Defender), it doesn't take into account his actual problem. Unless it is a ton of apps constantly downloading that is keeping his battery usage in the toilet, this will only yield a slight improvement. I believe the cause is is an app (or apps) that prevent his phone from entering the low powered sleep state.
I don't know what stock Android gets from completely idle use (haven't run it since July last year), but a basic CyanogenMod install would sip between 1-2% per hour with the latest stable and the latest nightlies, some are reporting 1% every 2-3 hours when the phone is left alone (due to a fix that lets the microphones go into a deep sleep state).
Twitter refreshing every 9 minutes can not be helping, that said I doubt that's your entire issue but reducing the refresh rate should help quite a bit.
If you bought it used, it could be a bum battery. Not sure i know what apps work best to find out that info. Anybody?

The battery app in my sig is the only one that reads the chip inside your battery to tell if it's legit or not, what the battery age is, etc. Needs root to work though.

You can also get Battery Left from the Marketplace and when it gets calibrated it gives you a time until death number and some other features.

[Q] Play Services Battery Use - what is normal?

On my old Note, when looking at battery usage (and on my nexus 7), "Screen" was always the top listed user of battery life, and below that were apps that i'd been using.
This couldn't be farther from reality on my note 3, however!
Right now:
47% - not charging. 1d 12h 8m 15s on battery
Google Play Services - 59%
Android OS - 9%
Cell Standby 7%
Screen 7%
Granted, I am not using the phone very heavily (obviously), and I have no complaints about the battery usage (I've been skipping nights of charging because-I-can with this, which I could never do before). I just don't understand why it's showing so much battery usage as being due to Google Play Services...
Is this:
a) A problem with my phone that could be remedied (how?), resulting in even more ridiculously long battery life
b) The battery usage numbers are bull****, at least for low overall usage.
c) Normal - Samsung's engineers are miracle workers and managed to make a very efficient screen
d) Normal - Google Play Services is a huge battery hog in general.
If it's d), can anything be done to rein it in? The potential battery life without that drain is so tempting!

A. go to settings, connections, location services, either turn it off or turn it off and on again but disagree with the google pop-up. Google is constantly waking your phone up to log your location to "better your experience/better ads"

So it's the "Use Wireless Networks" option under location services, then? That one can't be checked off without agreeing to the popup. Let's see if that improves anything.

I ask because, well, you've been on battery about the same length of time as I had, with no obvious offending apps shown in battery usage, yet had 28% battery left vs 47% on mine...

ya haha, just used it slightly more than you- more awake time with screen on.
Okay, this has yielded improvements.
But now Swype+Dragon is listed as taking 53% of battery usage! How?!
Though I'm down to ~1% per hr drain, maybe I shouldn't complain.

53% of how much time? 1 to 3 hours, no worries. Up to 6 or 7 hours up time probably an issue. More and definitely a problem. It is a matter of perspective. 50% of an hour is 30 minutes while 50% of 10 hours is 5 hours. It is hard to tell if there is a problem with these high percentages if they are based on short total time.
Sorry if that is long winded, but hope you get what I am trying to say.
1%/hour is not bad if there is some use time on it. If it was during down time, still not bad but shoot for .5 to .8.

I get exactly what you saying.
1 day 10 hrs uptime, 53% on Swype + Dragon (well, 49 now, after doing some battery hungry stuff). Tapping that entry shows:
CPU total: 3h 3m 49s
Stay awake: 1d 4h 47m 28s
Data sent: 38.1 kb
Data received: 42.83 kb
1 day 10 hours is not bad but with only 3 hour and x minutes of screen time, I think you have an issue. I get between 1 day and 15 to 17 hours with 5.5 to 6.5 hours screen time. (edit:There are days I get worse and some days better. Depends on where I am at and what I am doing) Usually with 2 to 3 hours of music. Of course a lot of variables contribute to the difference between our results.
Try doing a battery pull and then keep track of a full charge cycle and see what happens.
Edit 2: just reread your post and saw that swype/dragon shows awake for 1 day 4 hours. Have you tried a different keyboard to see what happens? Is Dragon the speech to text program?

Yeah, for some reason swype now comes bundled with some speech recognition feature I never use.
The problem with a different keyboard is that I am practically paralyzed on my phone without swype I don't know how I used a phone without it. I'd have to set this up for a test when I'm not going to be using the phone much.
It's bad enough to be talking to my phone when i'm making a call, I don't want to be talking to myself when i'm not making a call. I think everyone looks crazy when they're on hands-free barking orders to their phone - where I live, you see a lot of people talking on hands free, but you also see a lot of crazy bums talking to themselves, and you can't tell them apart if they have a hat on, cause it hides the headset, except by judging how expensive their clothes are - and even then, hipster and homeless look pretty similar....

I disabled some of the permissions (location, read contacts, post notification) from Swype in AppOps.
I don't know if this was what fixed the issue, or whether Swype wound up in a "wakelock" through some one-time event.
Now, I'm seeing the screen at the top of battery usage, like it's supposed to be. Can't yet quantify the improvement in battery life, as I was using the phone more heavily the past 2 days since I charged it.
This phone is psycho. I thought my battery drain was fixed..but nope. Android OS is again killing it. My phone won't sleep. Better battery stats and wakelock detector doesn't tell me why. .in 11 hours my phone has been awake like 6 hours..While being in my pocket.

[Q] Will hard/factory resetting the phone improve battery life?

My initial standby time was around 5 days, and estimated battery time would be 3 or 2+ days..... now its only 1 day 7 hours and and standby is about 2.5 days... would hard resetting it help?
Yes, because all the apps which draining your battery will be gone
I'd search for the apps which are eating the battry first and disable them.

The times are calculated based on your usage. I even had 15 days once but then once i started using it properly it dropped. It's basically a good estimate of real life usage. Don't worry about it

Well... unless there is something wrong with your battery (due to a software bug or what ever). It really won't change. In the first few days your estimate will be high,
but like people above said, it's based on your usage. You really shouldn't look at the estimate at all. Like it says, it's an ESTIMATE.

How I am getting good battery life: A simple guide with some links and stuff!

I see a lot of people complaining about battery life, myself included. I have tried just about every ROM there is and used all the battery saving apps and I think I've found a winning combination that will leave you with a fast phone and good screen on/off battery life. My stats so far today are 8 hours off the charger with 1 hr 30 mins SOT and still 80% battery left and that's shifting between my work WiFi which has many access points and causes WLAN_RX wakelocks and the crappy signal around this area.
I use the phone for general stuff like browsing the web, playing the odd 2D game whilst bored and push notifications from various social networking apps and I have been addicted to achieving 7+ hours of SOT over 2 days since I owned a Galaxy S1 many years ago. Instead of writing a crazy guide I'll just keep this thread simple and post my current configuration that is giving me good battery life:
- BOE2 bootloader, modem and ROM (I'm using Nameless ROM v2 for 910G)
- Roughly 25% brightness, all sync on, location @ GPS only (High Accuracy only when using Maps)
- Followed THIS GUIDE very closely which gives amazing deep sleep and still get notifications with the Push Notification Fixer app
- Uninstalled Facebook and Messenger and use Tinfoil with Pushbullet and the RSS Feed and set to open Tinfoil when I get a notification: Here's how to do that
- Discharge fully to 0% and then turn on again to make sure fully dead, then charge to 100% to calibrate battery
Wallah! You should get good battery life now provided you use the phone for the same things I do. It's that easy!
You need to be rooted for most of that thread don't you? I need my banking app from time to time so I can't root. Gutted!
Joe
Thank you for taking the time to write this up, but you should mention in the thread title that you need to be rooted. Thanks anyways though. I'm not the type to root. If Samsung can't deliver a good product for the $800 device they made, the device should be returned (which will be my case if the 5.1.1 update doesn't come in July or it doesn't fix the issues I'm having with this device).

Fully discharging a Li-Ion battery is not healthy for the long term life of the battery.
When will the myth of "re-calibrating" a battery finally die?!?
http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries
Similar to a mechanical device that wears out faster with heavy use, so also does the depth of discharge (DoD) determine the cycle count. The shorter the discharge (low DoD), the longer the battery will last. If at all possible, avoid full discharges and charge the battery more often between uses. Partial discharge on Li-ion is fine. There is no memory and the battery does not need periodic full discharge cycles to prolong life.

Smartphone batteries haven't needed to be calibrated in years. The only time you ever had to "calibrate" your battery was when your phone would sit at either 5% or 1% for hours before dying.
Even then you were calibrating your phones interpretation of the battery voltage levels, not the battery itself. Unless I'm very much mistaken battery charging is handled by integrated hardware, not software.
As a software bug overcharging a Li-Po is dangerous and completely avoidable

Huh? Never had a problem running official apps from two different banks.
I'm finding TW to be slightly better on battery under my circumstances - which consist of terrible signal fluctuation and rx_wlan wakelocks due to so many wireless arrays at work - however I will probably go back to CM12.1 soon or wait for Android M developer preview to be ported to Note 4 (fingers crossed) as I just love how stock and minimalistic everything is on stock droid CM and AOSP and it seems to be a lot snappier when combined with L-Speed mod.

Question After may 2022 update, battery life is back to bad again

Before April I was getting 6hr sot. While not the best, it's not the worst either, but definitely could use improvement.
I'm comes the April update, and after like 4-5 days I'm noticing better sot, by quite a bit. So I continue to keep checking battery life, doing the same routine daily, so I get a correct reading, and sure enough, I was getting 8hrs sot avg. I normally start charging at 15%, so I pushed it to 8% and reached 9.5 hrs sot, and over the month I still stayed at this same battery.
I was very very pleased and was bragging on Samsung really big time.
So up comes this may 2022 update, and sadly, my battery life dropped back to 6hrs sot.
So it got me to thinking. I've heard people say the battery takes time to settle in after an update, so is that true for "all" updates, or just a like major os update? Because if it's all updates then the battery don't have time to ever settle in really, because we get monthly updates.
The may 2022 update was pretty much just a security update.
So should I just give it time? Or am I destined to be stuck with the 6hrs sot vs the 8hrs I was getting?
same issue
For me the May update has been the same as April update...Well, as I had mentioned earlier, Samsung manages to hit the bell curve in terms of battery life with every update....
Did you find any fix to this?
mines been absolutely horrible since
I'm getting an iPhone in September,fed up of unreliable battery all the time
Did you guys wipe cache after update? I did that and also I enabled 'Suspend execution for cached apps' in developer settings and it seemed to help a lot.
