Yesterday evening I got a message on my mobile phone that there was a new sofwareupdate for the Android Operating system. Normally these updates contains improvements on different things in the Operating System and I never had any problems with an update so I downloaded and installed the new Oreo update (no not the cookie) .
Like any other Android update it took some time to finish, it had to download 1.2 GB on installation file and of course I had to free up some space. Although I don't know how I got 32GB in use, I think the google drive's and MS Onedrives aren't configured properly.
After 20 minutes the update was done, I noticed the battery was still at 50%. So I went to bed, and when I came downstairs this morning my telephone was dead. Strange cause normally it would have been more then enough to be on power the next day when the battery is 50%. But ok, I thought perhaps that it wasn't finished installing and that the post-install took a lot of the battery.
Well, this morning at work I charged the battery for some time and started to play some music. I noticed that the battery went draining pretty fast so I thought that something was quite wrong. So I googled a bit and saw quite quickly that it is a know problem with the Oreao Operating System in combination with the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge. See for some problem here
Although I haven't filed a incident at Samsung for this problem I already read that several people already did and that Samsung is saying that it's the battery's problem and not the Operating System... Yeah right, after a software update the telephone is consuming way more battery. Seems to me like a leak in the software of apps...
I only hope they will bring out a fix for it rather quickly because I don't want to charge my phone 24/7 :)
Have a great day
