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.

Have you done this?

First, turn off Auto Blocker then follow these instructions EXACTLY as written

Using the Samsung Phone App (not the Google one)

Dial *#9900# then scroll down to battery stats reset. Click then restart your phone.

Turn Auto Blocker back on

Restart device

Wait 14 days for battery optimisation to complete.

Same Issue - All suggestions have been tried even after uninstalling apps, power save, lower brightness, and TRY to spend less time on the phone🤞😯. Draining quicker - Unbelievable💯

YES! Rollback the update and how to uninstall the recent update

I have the exact same issue 😞 since updating my phone battery is dying within seconds. It's ridiculous

Ridiculous that I need to jump through hoops to get my phone back to where it was before the update. I didn't ask for an update. Didn't want it. Yet it was forced upon me. Total **! This is my phone, I paid for it. Why is Samsung shoving unnecessary updates down our throats? Incredibly frustrating.

100% agree! I should be able to decide what updates MY device receives, not the company that sold it to me.

Exact same issues here. To me it smells as planned obsolescence. 1 year after the warranty expires, a software update results in such a leap in malfunctioning with exact repeated failure mode across S22 users...
