Well other than that, the only other thing I can think of that would for sure kill battery like that would be if you are in are bad area and your phone is working overtime looking for or keeping a signal.

Have you had a bad experience with spiders

Not to take this too far off topic, but yes.  I have been bit by a black widow and brown recluse.  One gave me a gnarly scar and the other made me think I was having a heart attack.  

:ot: Now let me put myself in the corner.

I'm sorry to hear that. That sounds very traumatizing I'm sorry to hear that. But I did take those pictures of the spider with the wide-angle the telephoto and the regular ones all up close. Didn't mean to traumatize you.

The audio quality is fantastic

Agreed. I bought a set of the new Galaxy Buds on Amazon last week when they were in stock.  They do sound fantastic.  I only wish they supported APT-X HD for my Essential PH-1.  The proprietary format they are using sounds just as good though, so long as you use a Samsung device that is compatible.

Yes and I love the fact that you just put them in the case and use them

The S10 has pretty decent battery life but not that good

Well it's quite a difference in battery capacity, I'm not mad at all though, this phone is amazing I'm purposely gonna leave it off the charger tonight. Curious if I can make it to tomorrow night lol. 69% as I am typing this.

I took my phone off of the charger Friday night right at midnight, 1 day and 9 hours later, as I'm typing this, I'm at 52%. All this includes lots of phone calls and emails, over an hour of youtube, about 30 minutes of 4k 60fps video and lots of web browsing.

I was having some serious data issues last night and did some reading. Apparently Sprint is aware of the issue. Someone posted to disable B41 and it is fixing the issue for some people. So far, that seems to be working for me. I had zero data on B25 and now it's working after disabling B41. Hopefully Sprint and Samsung can figure out what the issue is and get a patch out quickly. This is frustrating to have a new phone that I have to use neutered.

Screen on time of 43 minutes doing various things and only dropped 10%?  I wouldn't exactly call that horrible.

Really? I mean I have to place it on the charger by midday. I don't do much in terms of heavy processor usage but the standby time is horrible

I've had spotty data for sure, but I had spotty data occasionally with my S9+. I'm betting whatever issue on this phone was the same with the S9. Hopefully they get it sorted, that would be wonderful. Also, I hope they fix WiFi calling too. It's been a little annoying with these bugs on what is overall an excellent phone. All software based, so I'm sure they'll sort them out by Christmas. 

Maybe this has been posted here, but I was reading over in Reddit about this app: 

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jamworks.bxactions

It works awesome to make that Bixby button actually useful. If you follow the instructions and give it deeper access via connection to computer, it works on lock screen and such (no root needed or any funny business, just a couple adb commands). I've got mine set to sound toggle and flashlight when screen is off, and screenshot while screen is on. Also can use the in-pocket detection to make sure you don't trigger things inadvertently. Very slick app.

Have you tried to install something like CPU Spy to see if your phone is making it into deep sleep? I haven't used those apps in several phone generations because it hasn't been necessary. If I sit my phone down on my desk and do not touch it, it'll go to sleep, be cold to the touch, and barely use any battery percentage at all during that time. Your phone is definitely an outlier and I assume you have some sort of rouge app that's consuming up your battery. The battery stats page doesn't tell the best story there.....what does the Device Care in settings say about it? Any apps flagged for crashes?

 

EDIT: have you removed App Stack, Lookout, etc. all the preinstalled garbage?

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
