S24 Ultra battery

[Duane89]

Hi guys. People with the S24 Ultra, after the latest update, it feels like my battery is draining faster than normal. Anyone else with the same issue?

It helps to clear your system cache from the lingering update files on the phone.

To do this just switch off your phone and plug it into a computer, then after the charging icon disappears, hold the volume up and power button until a menu pops up(called recovery mode) after the Samsung logo appears. Use the volume down key to scroll to 'wipe system cache' and use the power button to enter it and enter yes. After that it will return back to that menu and you can either select power off or reboot to restart the phone. You can unplug the cable after that.

Hopefully this works for you like it did me.

It's still the same for me, and our toddler uses the phone for her regular YouTube binge and games as well 😅 Clearing the cache as suggested is very useful indeed.

Ive bearly used my phone today, was mostly connected to android auto playing Spotify, and i already at 30%

If it's wireless android auto, the usage might be a little excessive. It shouldn't run down the phone battery that much.

Thats why i think its because this latest update, hasnt been so heavy on battery before

I have noticed the same. I have just cleared the cache, hopefully this works for me like it has for so many others

Definitely more draining on the October Security Patch
