UI 6.1 Issues

[ValenDigital]

Anyone else phone heating up and using MORE battery after installing the latest ui 6.1 update? And latest Aug 2024 playstore...

Done the usual like clearing cache and updating apps etc but where I was getting around 2 days and about 6-8hours of battery it's now about 1 day and 18 hours plus heats up whenever you use for lets say 5 10 mins more notably when viewing vids on YouTube or facebook/insta...

Think they may have pushed out the update too quickly without testing... oh forgot. We are the guinea pigs for testing... ma bad....

Plus, it doesn't say 6.1.1 update but just 6.1 is that normal?

UPDATE: thanks to a few good messages from members especially @Fiona26 finally got this sorted.

It was a combination of badly optimised apps (here's looking at you PayPal) and doing numerous app updates (why can't they test apps before release?!! 🤔) AND the fact that after an partition clearing and phone restart for some funny reason adaptive power saving gets turned off! My phones now only used 10% for the last 14 hours! In total it's stating around 3 day battery life! 

Superb latest update to 6.1.1 (or 6.1 as its know for s24) is very good AFTER taking steps to clear and update apps and re add any settings if they get turned off...

The 6.1.1 update isnt available to the s series but instead only the Z series, as far as my knowledge expands.

After I did the update like you have mentioned, I Cleared The Cache Partition. This always works for me. Did you do this? This is very different to clearing the cache for individual apps.

[ValenDigital]

Yup. Should have said the cache partition...

[Fiona26]

You are correct the 6.1.1 is for the Z series. S series is 6.1

Give the galaxy app booster a run in the good guardians. Not saying it will fix but might help.

[ValenDigital]

Can you clarify? Where is that located???

[Fiona26]

You have to download good guardians from the galaxy store.

It's not one of those bloated apps is it? Last thing I want is more bloat and hidden issues if you know what I mean...
