Sorry it's so long, I'm still in my Trainer Mode from my previous job.
Hi Jimmy, I tried all the tips from your video but it didnt help stop the standby drain.
Finally i figured out something which can be additional tip which you can add to your video. I found that samsung's "find my mobile" was draining battery in the background. i disabled Samsung's "find my mobile" option in both foreground and background. In developer options under "background processes" i disabled "find my mobile". Now things seem to improve a bit in terms of standby. Will have to monitor for few days but its something which also affects battery drain which you can add to your tips
@@ashishmulye6734 try to disable all the apps. It improve my standby a lot
volome up and power button doesn't work on s10
Nah, x2 playback speed will do
@iWipe • how do you close all the running apps manually? Force stop it?
I swear Samsung should be sending Jimmy some paychecks for doing them a favor by explaining all of this to us. Always the best information and tutorials right here. No need to watch anyone else.
i mean he did say that he worked from samsung from his past videos.
I 100% agree with your comment. Jimmy has an amazing channel and is more than willing to go into detail with all the latest changes and updates. I love and have much respect for the hard dedicated work he's putting in. Thanks again Jimmy!
My friend told me to search GT2020PSN on Google and it actually gave a Google Play code!😐
@@DBZwarriormod Thank you!
Did it work for you guys, I have the same issue with Google
Clear cache, disable sync (check for errors), disable location, turn on find Wi-Fi automatically, volume up and power wipe cache partition, clear Google play accounts.
What is clear play account? To delete?

"7% is a lot"
My phone: 30% hold my beer
mine is at 50% lmao
Mine was 65%🙈🙈😂😂
Mine is 80
damn mine is 24%
If you're using google related apps thats ok
Click and hold "location"
Click "Google Location History"
Turn off "Location History"
That is usually always the culprit
also turn off wifi & bluetooth scanning
Haha, location history was amongst the first things I turned off :D I could simply not think of a scenario where that information would be useful or important to me...
It says to pause doesn't have the turn off option

Battery Usage: Google Play Services - 1.3%, TH-cam - 70% 😝
exactly !
😂😂😂😂👏👏👏
yyyaaa its suckss😪😪😪😒😒😒😕 is there any way to lower battery drain for youtube
Due to quarantine I am using TH-cam way more than before.
@@jeffreymichael540 Ironically Google Stock is down because less companies are advertising because of virus
Thank u so very much, I almost through my 3 months old S20 in the garbage bin because the battery would only last for 5 hours ! And it was overheating to a scary point, I took it to Samsung service centre 3 times and they kept saying there is nothing wrong with it. I tried everything.
Watched your video, and when I followed ur guidance found an email app that was running in the background for 16 to 17 hours per day! And consuming 150 to 170 % of the battery life !!!!! Logged out from this email app and the phone battery lasted at least for 20 hours and more !! Thank u again mate
Ok. Going to help everyone out here quickly. I've been monitoring this for some time. First, no need to clear cache...🙄 second..go to your accounts, put everything that's not a priority off to not auto sync. Third and most important, turn OFF automatic updates for Google play store. You can always manually check when you need or want to. Automatic updates DO drain battery. With these adjustments I have monitored for a while. If it's even google play store or google services, I show either one ranginging from 0.5 to 1.6...sometimes in the 2 range. It's been a LONG time that I can even find a time that reached even 3. Before I could CONSISTANTLY see through the history many times hitting from 4 to 7. I hope this helps everyone😉
Crisp, clear, and easy to apply. Thank you, Jimmy, for these fantastic tips. Did the first 5 steps already and will check the usage.
Thank you, once again.🤗☺️
FYI BOOTING TO CLEAR CACHE PARTITION, if you have a Galaxy s8 or similar you have to use the power button, the volume up button and the bixby button. Once you see the Samsung logo appear let go of the power button and the bixby button but continue to hold the volume up button until and again until you see the boot options. Great video BTW.
I use a bixby routine that disables sync entirely unless I am charging and that makes absolutely zero apps in my battery usage show up as "background usage" I don't even see google play services in that battery usage screen. ever since I made that routine not only do I save a lot of battery but I still have important stuff synced when it is charging. I STRONGLY recommend setting a bixby routine to disable sync when you are not charging unless you have some reason you must have it on even off the charger. but for me it works amazing and I don't have to think about syncing because it does it when I put it on the charger.
I'm going to give it a try and apply to my bixby routine.
@@khiangnong1349 did it help?
@@mega4304 probably a malware
How do I set it up could you explain it step by step?
But wouldn't disabling sync also disable looking for emails in Gmail? Like you want to sync your emails right,? Not only when you are home charging, but you need to look emails on the go?
To better save battery, you can click the "sync" button on your drop down buttons. You will save a ton of battery and please make sure to turn of nearby scanning by going to connections>more connections>nearby scanning (turn off)
How much tons
phone is not even 1ton
i know you r just sayin' for fun but still no logic
@@ajzambhande8675 Try it, you'll see a slower drain rather than one that is more constant
Really???
One comment on entering recovery mode though. It is true as shown on S20. On S8 and S10 (both of which I have) you use Bixby button to. Once the device is off, press and hold the Bixby and volume up buttons, then press the power button. Let go of the power once the phone turns on, while still keeping the Bixby and volume up buttons pressed.
i have a new s22+ and I had 15% on Google play services 😂
Thanks for the great tips! Definitely been seeing my battery performance go down and phone heating up after the latest UI update.
Heating issue really sucks... I also experience the issue
Yes heating issue is the worst thing in my device
Watching this already drains my phone
😂
Play Services on my phone never exceeded 0.5%. I guess that's a good thing...
You may also want to give the app called Bouncer a try - all it does is automatically revoke the permissions you give your apps whenever you are not using them - so they are not gonna do funky things while running in the background, basically unused. May save you quite some battery juice.
Thank you for this, my Google play service uses 13% on my Note 10+.....
Cheers
My Google Play Services is at .4% running 15hours a day so I guess I'm fine 😉 thanks btw
How do you do this? Mine was at 9.9% just a day ago!
@@Flash363 mine is less than 2% 😁
@@Flash363 I had 51% ahhh
4 years later and this still works. Thank you.
Why does this showing screen on time without even opening it?
Thanks, this video has saved me a couple of times now with Play services on both occasions spiking to something like 20-30 per cent battery useage, and a normally 2 day battery almost dead inside 12 hours. Suspect the issue was another app which was also drawing a lot of power and triggering Play services in some way. Anyway, followed your advice steps and sanity was restored- both the phone and mine !
Can I know how you found out one app triggering Google play services
@@ApArsenalSorry, I'm afraid it's that long ago that I can't remember the details now. Looking back at my comment I don't know that I pinned down an exact app but applying the Play services steps from the video must have fixed the issue long term.
People: Google Play Services use 7% of battery is HUGE.
Me: crying with BlackBerry OS 10.
Qual aparelho você está usando?
Tem algumas otimizações que você pode fazer no OS BB10.
Ainda em 2020 eu estava usando o blackberry z10 como aparelho secundário. Todos os serviços google funcionaram bem após alguns procedimentos.
Se quiser, posso ajudá-lo.
thank you so much for this video! my phone's battery was draining so fast these few days, then i learn from your video and clear cache partition(i never did this before because i am afraid it could brick the phone) and now my phone is good as new and i had been using it for 3 years and counting, no more battery drain, Thanks again jimmy, ur channel deserved better! 🙏🙏💪
Google play services have been running on my Galaxy S10 for more than 16h straight and it has consumed 0.6% of the battery. But I'll definitely keep the idea.
Does g board consume a lot of battery ?
This is the best solution for my samsung device i ever seen on youtube
Others youtubers just give solution to put down all the features, meanwhile the main problem is some app keep refreshing location and some account always trying to syncing item every second on the background, so the battery drain like crazy
Edit: after doing this, my s21 going from 4,5h to 6,5h SoT
Thank you for this video. It's something that I was looking for long time now...
Why would you want ANY apps to have access to your location all the time, instead of Only When App is Active??
if u lose your phone chances are t too less of getting it back at least in India 🤣
@daserej805 then leave that on in location access. I open this in but the other apps set to on when in use. You will know what apps needs the location access and not.
daserej805 that is a Google stupidity : turn off that GPS option... if you loose your phone, start remotely that option... I have no idea why it s not possible to turn this option remotely ? they can spy us by starting the camera and micros automatically without asking us but that GPS option : WE can't ?
@@bluepawn you got them.
This video does need some compliments... nice one my battery not drain too fast now
Thank you for your videos. I have the S21 ultra 5g and I have found something useful in each of your videos
With the new UI, How does one check for total screen-on time per charge?
Subscribing this channel just for this beauty. Keep up the good work🤗🤗👌👌👌
I just turned all sync off on everything.. my battery life is like 2 days.. on note 9+
LG G8 Gang!!!!!
It improved that much??
Excellent tip, Google play services is now taking only 0.6 % now. Keep up the good work.
Great video! My Google Services app was taking 13,5% battery! That's a lot!
Great video. I'm going to try this on my S9 plus. Take care.
Very useful. From 6.8% down to .3% Thanks!
I have watched a lot of videos on TH-cam, and I created many do-it-yourself video myself. Your videos are well organized and well written.
Most of the TH-cam videos are not well organized and not well written.
TH-cam 25% since 100% full charge 14% google play services, 10% google wtf???
I don't sync anything.. I off my location.. it fixed everything. Hahaha
Great video. Much appreciated! You've saved me having to wipe my note10 and start from scratch - something very time consuming and annoying. My battery life is now what it use too be when I first purchased it. Love your work
Very good youtube video tips about the draining battery topic 2 thumbs up 👍👍
The title should have been "How to get better battery life on a Samsung Device". Anyway, good content. But what I've done is go to settings and go through the list one at a time and turn off everything that u don't use.
There is one app that I used which has been a saviour, it's called Gservice Fix, and it works a treat 👍🏻
Please info the developer's name
@@seanjun_ the only way to get it is now via Google it got taken from the store not long back, it's a great app and works a treat
On the wiping cache partition on a Samsung phone (thanks for the tip), on some Samsung phones (perhaps older than the S20 used in the video) you need to press volume up+home button+power on button to turn your phone on to access this.
When Galaxy's get a software update, they automatically clear the system cache. You don't need to manually do it.
Oh ackually
Hahahahahaha if your Galaxy actually GETS the god damn software updates. AT&T is a real bastard. I just manually clear the cache of my most used apps once a week or so (Spotify, YT, Chrome, etc.)
Did a search you have to push Bixby button also on Note 9. I had seen that before but forgot. :))
You helped a lot thank you 😊 because I was so tired of my battery Dying.
Super Helpful! Thanks
Now do Bluetooth & Location lol Thanls for the info JIP
Bluetooth?
@@Flash363 meaning bluetooth and location drain your battery joke
U saved my life brother my phone's battery have now increased
Good informative video ♥️ I DO all steps on my note 9
love from PAKISTAN
Thank you. Useful, clear, and easy to follow steps. Rare for help videos.
Good info Jimmy.. I'm usually running my Google around 1.3-1.5 percent.. Appreciate this info I'll keep this in mind if it gets higher
How do you do this? Mine was at 9.9% just a day ago!
My battery is draining 20%
What case and screen protector are you using?
google play services is always running in the background although the % is very low, but i notice some battery drain when the phone is in idle, thanks to this video i went to check the google account and there is something keep syncing and i fix it~ good job keep it going
Thanks Jimmy!
Great video mate, really helpful.
Thank you so much, This fixed my battery drain issue for s23 ultra earlier it was 10% and now its 1% approx.
Also got screen on time of 6hrs 20mints after draining battery 58%. Now battery is at 42%.
Thanks 🌻
after android 11 one ui 3.0 same problem. pls help😕
New subscriber and thanks for a great video. 😊👍
Hi Jimmy very nice and useful video 👌. You speak with appropriate speed not too fast or not too slow. Keep up the good work 👍. Do you make videos only for Samsung phones?
How does the 4th point save battery ? I would say this would increase battery usage as the OS will continuously check for location changes and turn on/off the wifi automatically. I would suggest to turn off this option, and when heading out just turn off the wifi manually like most people do. When you are back and you dont wanna be on your sim network data, turn off the network data and turn on the wifi. Saves double the battery.
Was looking to see if anyone was gonna call him on that, if not I would've. Good catch bruh
Thank you. This is very helpful
First of all, the battery usage is displayed in percentage. If your Google Play Service has high battery usage percent, it can be an indication that you barely used your phone and your other apps did not used much battery which is good.
Lets say if I leave my game on for a few days straight, the game is going to use so much power that it makes the google play service battery usage insignificant. My Google Play Service battery usage is only 0.36%.
Absolutely nice video
I've done a clear cache partition before and ran into an app issue (specifically my Secure Folder). The message that I got would say could not sync with Secure Folder. I still have no idea why that has happened.
Hey Jimmy great video, but can you please disable 120hz when filming? It looks extremely blurry when scrolling.
I second that.
True
Excellent video 👍
Mine ranges from 0.9% to 1.6% bit facebook and instagram goes to 10%. I also denied the blood presure sensore to plays services and it lowerd the usage %.
VERY informative. thanks for useful info.
thank you very much. im subbing!
Jimmy, very very helpful
I have an A52s 5g & have tried several times to initiate the "booting mode" as suggested @ 9:40, without any success. Any suggestions to bringing up the correct screen?
Plug your phone via usb to a computer. it should be a data cable and not just a charging cable. then do the steps above.
A1
perfect video. Thank you so much for sharing
Has always been a pain since my s3 days. Canf believe that up until today on the s20 it still bothers a lot of people.
Great info. One more is to turn off automatic app updates in the play store
Phineas and Firb then John Wick... lol nice combo
You are assuming that we know how to get to where you are starting from. I was looking at another recent video on Good Lock but you were already there. Ugh, this isn’t helpful to me at all and frustrating.
Which mobile you are using (inn this video) ?
How did you get into the booting mode by only holding your power and volume up briefly? I have to hold them all the way until it goes in or instead it turns one the phone on...
My Android phone lasts like 17 minutes to drain 3% of my battery but it used to last like 20 per 2% or 1% so I believe this and will try it
Thanks for the tips bro.. it worked.😁
Jimmy is the Galaxy guru! 💪🦾👍
Is there any option to auto clean the App cashe
Great advice thanks👍👌
I had the same wallpaper before , I'm gonna make a poster of it .
Very usedul video!
Mine Was using 22%, glad I found this video
i tried all the steps except the last one and i will give a report tomorrow if it did work btw thank you so much for clarity and easy instructions !!!!!
EDIT : This method saved me around 15 % - 20% battery and that's pretty great
this was great thanks
Great video.. tnx
Thanks my guy
I really enjoyed Android, but it's things like this that bring me back to iOS. Android has too many issues and requires too much tinkering around just to get simple task done. The apps. also have issues compared to iOS. Too bad.
That's the point. It's for power users who like to customize and tweak their device . Can't even multitask onscreen on iOS 🤮
Iscobibble The Alien I agree with you, but there’s too many behind the scene issues with android and the app eco system.
@@zski1 iOS has many background management issues dude ! iOS always shutdown apps on the background ! these r the big issues y iOS battery never drains ! Now dont try 2 argue with me
abhijit gojara lol, I’ve been testing both android and iOS for many years and your statement is incorrect.
THANK YOU SO MUCH
I am here after seeing google eating up 35% of my juice
Great! Tips, petty good
EXPERIENCING SOME ISSUES WITH GOOGLE PLAY STORE AS WELL.WHENEVER TRYING TO DOWNLOAD ANY APP OR GAME FROM PLAYSTORE , ITS SHOWING AS "DOWNLOAD PENDING " FOR INITIAL 10-15 SECONDS, THEN THE DOWNLOAD IS STARTING. AND ON DOWNLOASDING ANY APP FROM GALAXY STORE, ITS NOT ADDING A SHORTCUT TO HOMESCREEN, NEED TO PUT THE APP IN HOMESCREEN MANUALLY.
DOES IT HAVE ANY SPECIFIC SETTINGS ? "ALLWAYS ADD TO HOME SCREEN" IS TOGGLED ON BY D WAY
PERDON FOR TYPING IN CAPS, MY LAPTOPS CAPS LOCK BUTTON IS MALFUNCTIONING.
Hi I clear data of google play services and in 30 minutes it grows again to the same size I am so mad
Just turn off location completely and turn it on when you really need it, saves a lot of battery. Also turn off mobile data when you're on Wifi, it will also save battery.
