Hi, 
Does anyone has any issued after the new UI 7.0 update?
After I updated my phone, the battery drained rapidly - after 3 min of use I went from 100%-75% and now after 24h of the new update, my phones shuts down unexpectedly and goes to 0% when it was just at 96% second ago. 
I keep on having to charge my phone to use it and without charging it, it won't even last 5min. 
Can someone help please🙏😭😭😭

Edit: For anyone that has the same issue as me, I waited 4 days and tried everything but nothing helped, so I had to go replace my battery because the old battery just kept getting worse. The battery is now back to normal, and 94% lasted me 25h with bare minimal use on power saver.

It's not the only bug introduced by this update: on my S21 FE the power usage is up, the data connection through one SIM is completely blocked, wifi connections are unstable or weak and sone apps are blocked or are too slow. Some apps have missing online data. Update? More like a giant leap backwards in connectivity.

I have s23ultra and same battery issues after upgrade. None of the fixes suggested here works. 3 charges in a day is not acceptable. 1749190862192.jpg

Exactly, now I can't even use it without my charger on. The moment my charger is loose, the phone automatically shuts off and this notification appears when I open Samsung members again. Nothing has helped so far 1749198930303.jpg

My wifi connection also gets cut off very often and I can't turn it on unless I restart my phone again. This is so frustrating, no my phone is useless without a charger in. I have tried every possible solution but nothing worked and in fact my phone is getting worse and worse.

I am having the EXACT same issues. My phone will not hold a charge. It goes from 100% to 0% in 30 min or less. It turns off by itself. None of the fixes have worked for me. I cant believe that Samsung would allow this to happen. My phone has to be plugged in at all times. There was nothing wrong with my phone - no battery issues until this horrible update

My phone is doing the EXACT same thing. It is useless unless I have it plugged in at all times. It goes from 89% to 44% and turns off in a matter of minutes

I didn't think they could replace battery. Thanks for info. Will be worth getting it replaced as phone getting worse and Samsung doing nothing .

Once none of these suggestions work, the next step would be for Sumsung to push a rollback out to us before we push a class action suit to them for breaking our devices. Total BS for my device going 2 days between charges to less than 6 hours between charges. I guess this is there way to force people to purchase new devices... by bricking our old devices with th 7.0 virus.
