Battery Drain

[sud199]

After the beta update I am hardly getting 2.5 to 3 hours of screen time with my galaxy S21 exynos version...does anyone have same issue?

I will suggest pls hold on till the final release. And see if the SOT improves or not. We r on early beta builds, generally post the 5th Global Beta things settle down a bit .
In the mean time try installing

And get a rough idea on the battery's health . Pls note this is not perfect there is always an error of 3% to 5% ± !
Mine is showing 95% as of now & i get around 8hrs of SOT ; when i bought it fresh i used to get SOT around 9.5hrs.

Note : Am on S21 Ultra , exynos variant which is much inferior compared to the snapdragon variant.

How to wipe cache partition from recovery?

[djprem]

Connect your phone to mac or pc using usb cable; switch off using notification power option. Once the charging animation appears , press and hold : volume up and power ; you will boot into recovery. Now wipe the cache n reboot.

It will take 2 battery cycle for the phone to settle down as it generates new backend mappers.

2 battery cycle means

[djprem]

48hrs or 2 times charging & discharging

Please, stop background battery using Apps and third-party apps. Clean the cache of apps, and set up the battery auto-optimization. Clear the memory Optimized. This might be helpful to you. Thank you.

All these jazz are not req ! A simple cache wipe and using the power saving mode for 2 cycles solves it !
Battery optimization is taken care by android itself and memory optimizations kills apps which causes more battery drain when you reload an app!
Cache of app has nothing to do vit battery life it stores app ram data & support files !

The Power saving mode is good for all Tips. Thank you for your support.

Pls dnt misguide folks if your not sure about what your dealing with...most of us out here are either devs or been extensive members for yrs on xda forums with somewhat expertise on roms & solution n android backend...for the sake of responding jst dnt : if you genuinely dnt know how actually it is 🙄 🙄 🙄

Lol, this is not about misguiding someone but a discussion forum in which we all learn about any issues. I'm talking about how I'm solving any issues that might be fixed on my UI5. I'm not facing any issues on my phone. Cleaning the cache and the data of an App is always fixed the Application and it's stating new data from older to new versions.
