Battery draining faster after software update

[popmaster109]

Hello has anyone else experience faster battery drainage after updating one UI 7 on your S24 ultra and if you have experience the same thing has anyone been able to sort out the issue and if yes what have you done

Not at all

The rollout has commenced and will work it's way to S23, S22 and S21 series.

It is only to be expected that more recent devices are updated first but during May and June your device should be offered the update.

Remember there are 10's of millions of devices if not even 100's of millions to be updated and this takes time.

Updated my S25 Ultra to the April patch. My goodness, the battery drainage is nuts... does anyone know if Samsung is aware and going to be addressing the issue sooner rather than later?

Hi Derek I've done the cache wipe via the recovery mode on my S24 ultra and about a week later I'm getting fantastic battery life way better than ever before one UI 7 update so for me it's working so far just give it 2 weeks if you're still getting bad battery life I'd ask samsung to look at testing your battery you can do a battery test here on the samsung member app

I used to be able to go the whole day without charging my phone. After the update, I find myself charging two or three times in a day.

Mine is still draining. I thought the security update I got couple days ago would fix the battery problem. But it hasn't. Did you get the security update?

[Maggs1]

I've rebooted into recovery mode 3 times and wiped cache partition and still hasn't stopped the battery draining. And it's no use factory resetting as that won't help either. I just hope gets better as the weeks go on .
