@ScottSap personally have not had battery /SOT issues too often on my Device though can be temporary issues with software updates. Some social media apps can be Battery Hogs, particularly Tiktok and Facebook ,Spotify to a degree also. Are you following general optimisation techniques such as turning off some connections when they are not needed and putting some apps which are not used on a regular basis into sleep Mode? it is generally best to turn off Adaptive Brightness and not have it continuously at high levels. Dark Mode is an option at certain times of the day though I am not a fan of having this mode constantly on disabling too much, ideally you need a mix of the best experience with impressive enough Battery life.
It is advisable to clear the cache partition after updates, temporary cache files are deleted but Data is intact. Follow these steps:
1. Turn off the device.
2. Connect To Computer or plug in USB-C Headphones , Press and hold the Volume Up key and then press and hold the Power key
3. When the Android logo displays, release all three keys.
4. Wait until the Android system recovery menu options appear.
5. Press the Volume down key several times to highlight wipe cache partition.
6. Press Power key to select.
7. Press the Volume down key to highlight yes, them and press the Power key to select.
8. When the wipe cache partition is complete, Reboot system now is highlighted.
9. Press the Power key to restart the device.
You can also Repair apps from the same Recovery Menu.
A Factory Reset would be the last resort,though some Members feel a refresh is occasionally needed (ensure Data is backed up before contemplating the procedure).
I do not work for Samsung or make Samsung Products but provide independent advice and valuable contributions.
