Slept with 58% battery and woke up with 24% left. Anyway to prevent android system and android os from consuming power? This is just too much.

          Lovely phone in appearance and I did like the applications that come with the phones but a nightmare with very poor reception - on one occasion it went into SOS/Emergency mode 8 times in ONE day and I was in CBD Sydney, Australia. Say no more but I will stay way clear of this phone.
          BTW, Samsung Customer Service , Perth not interested in this issue , would not entertain the request for a refund nor offer suggestions in solving problem but claim there is nothing wrong with Alpha.

                AnonD-347562, 24 Mar 2015Hii karan, You won't even get a 1% of battery drain duri... moreHi Prankhar,
                I know your battery is quite good, but other users installed many apps like Facebook or social network apps. So drain few percent of battery is normal for them, unlike your situation which no active background apps going all night even wifi off or allow scanning disabled.

                Even mine too, not Alpha but other Samsung model will experience this.

                  You won't even get a 1% of battery drain during night if you disable "Always Allow Scanning" in wi-fi settings.

                  Go to Settings > wifi > Advanced > Then Uncheck "Always Allow Scanning"

                  Thanks,
                  Prakhar

                          emperor80, 23 Mar 2015Dear all, yesterday I bought galaxy alpha and I re-charged... moreLeaving wifi enabled and not connection to a wifi is drain more battery than connected to wifi.

                          If you don't wish to connect to a wifi then switch it off at night.

                            It happens with the new device which runs on factory Firmware & lacks new updates.

                            Did you install the new updates ? if not update your device manually with the latest firmware after applying updates everything will certainly work well. (There could possibly be 3 Big Sizes updates for the same if your ALPHA is just out of the box)

                            Also disable one option in wi-fi.

                            Go to Settings > wifi > Advanced > Then Uncheck "Always Allow Scanning" it will improve the overall battery performance when you are not using wifi. (Leaving this option checked will always check for near by wifi connection even when wi-fi is off. (Consumes around 5-8% battery)

                            Hope you understand.

                            Thanks,

                                    Alpha and S5 are now out of production.
                                    As they are about the same price, S5 has far better features with memory card, great battery, great screen, better cameras, water proof, future upgrades, etc....
                                    S5 is worth 600 $, but Alpha is far from it. Your choice...
