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

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?

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 .

I tried to downgrade using smart switch. It doesn't let me. If on beta it would. But not official 7.0 update. And my battery still draining fast.

It feels like a ripoff from the company. This phone..which is not cheap by any means was operating just fine. Company updates to software should not come at the consumers cost. This cost being the inefficiency of the device. This will be my last samsung purchase. Congratulations to the software development team, you have done the dirty deed of corporate the service of "forced upgrades"

Thanks for the tip... does this execution wipe out all the data on the phone and require a backup beforehand?

How to do that?

Can you please mention the steps.

After the Samsung One UI7 update my new S24+ is experiencing some major issues.

The batterry drain is atrocious now. I've gone from charging my phone every day and a half to several times a day!! Also it's heating up bad, it never got hot before the update.

It feels like I went from a 4900mah battery to a 2100mah batterry!

Also since the update my screen randomly won't respond. It's like the phone is freezing which should never happen w/ this processor and 12gb of RAM.

And YES I have cleared the cache trust me it does nothing to fix the issue despite people claiming otherwise.

Also someone explain to me how letting the phone do it's "14 day check" to determine your battery usage would make any difference in battery consumption at all?

It's been 14 days since the update and nothing has improved.

Im concerned the excessive heat will shorten my batteries life span. This is unacceptable for a brand new $1000 phone.

What steps have you taken to try determine the main source of the battery drain?

Hi All, Definitely a UI7issue.
my s25 needed a charge after 2 days at least

Soon as the update installed the battery is drained and been charging twice a day at least. killing the battery cells
