Battery drain observation using v1.11 on Samsung Galaxy S9:
After testing with a Tesco (uk) sim card I noticed that battery drain is drastically reduced when the sim card is removed. With sim installed I was getting about 3 days from a full charge, without sim about 9 days… Does it sleep better without sim?
At least it doesn’t keep a connection to the mobile network, which is always a factor in battery usage.
This issue is fixed in the /e/ 1.12.3 version. If you can’t update to this version, you can disconnect/delete from /e/ account as a temporary solution.
I don’t think it is related to the issue fixed in 1.12; /e/ account and synching are turned off. Phone is still connected via wifi.
The issue is related to the Mail app. There was a bug after updating the app since v1.11 and now is reverting to the previous KMail version in 1.12.3 /e/ update.
Ok thanks, but would this explain the difference between battery drain with sim/no sim?
