I like the bixby routines and turning off all antennas at night which saves battery.
Is there a way to turn off all phone sensors to provide that much more battery savings?

Normally overnight I lose 8-10% in battery power. However for the last 4nihhts I've lost 25-30%, looking at my stats the phone doesn't appear to be awake but all of a sudden it appears the drain increases
Please can someone advise
Thankd
if you switch off location and google search in location services you might get alot better battery life, it work for me, over night I would drop 10-20 % now its only 5%
turn off gps, wifi, 3g, lower brightness

I've got bit of a dodgy battery which for whatever reasons reports my phone being at 0% then the auto shutdown starts and the phone turns off.
The problem is that I can immediately turn the phone back on most of the time and have around 20% battery left and a few hours extra lifetime.
I'm not too bothered about data loss etc so I was wondering if there is a way of disabling this from the OS side.
My phone is the Xperia T. It's got a Snapdragon if there's something chipset specific for shutdown.
Thanks
So I just got my Gear S today. After pairing it with my S6 Edge, the battery drained by 40 percent in a couple of hours. This means that to use the watch, I'd need to charge my phone 3 times a day. I've also noticed lag on the phone when paired to the watch. Anyone know why this is?
Make sure you turn off the pedometer which is on by default. It will drain your battery faster than anything. I leave Bluetooth and WiFi on all the time. When I am away from my phone and connected via WiFi my battery drains faster than when I choose not to connect and use my data plan.
How do I turn it off? All I see is pause
Pause is basically off. It doesn't reset existing steps so it's called pause rather than off
you should also check location settings on your phone if you have the find my device feature on. i think it sets it to high accuracy that really drains my battery. i changed it on the phone to power savings.
I've found a potential issue with my phone, and wanted to see if anybody else can duplicate the problem.
My settings/environment are 4G LTE with 4 bar signal strength, full time display off, Bluetooth on. Stock ROM, using Google home launcher.
If the screen auto brightness control is off, and brightness set at 100%, the battery life is atrocious when the screen is turned off and the phone is in my pocket (drains about .5% per minute). Phone gets really hot in the pocket after only a few minutes.
If the screen auto brightness control is off, and brightness set at 99% or less, the battery sleep life is fine/normal. Phone is cool to touch.
If screen auto brightness control is on, the battery sleep life is fine/normal. Phone is cool to touch.
I have this same issue where my phone is getting super hot when in my pocket. drain on battery is crazy bad. this only started yesterday after the update.
I do have the always on screen thing.
my brightness was set to 75%
I am now having to charge after only 8 hrs of use
Hello,
My device doesn't have a function to power off when the battery level is low. So shuts down when battery is drained and cannot be power on until I put it to charger and wait 5 minutes or more.
Is there an application or a script or something I can do to auto power off when the battery levele is below 10% for e.g?
Anybody?

Hello and welcome to the XDA Q&A section of the Forum.
There are plenty of power saving apps in the Google Play Store that can notify you when your battery level is critcal so you can either get your charger or save your data so that you don't lose it because you didn't hit save. Here is another "thread" started for the same purpose of yours, remember, search before you post
I think is quite clear what I'm asking. I'm not looking for a low batery level alarm application or power saving on low battery level. I already have an app like you suggested and also the devices has a power saving option on low battery level. But it doesn't have a function to power off the device before battery level reaches 0%. I specifically asked for a way to auto power off the device when battery level is critical(at 5% for e.g).
I found the app Automate though but it doesn't work, I get an error when the action performed and device stays on.

For me it was not clear because why can't you just wait for it to shut down, you will even get a bit more time to use the device itself.
Yeah for me its clear and also looking for sth like that.
