Not sure if this is the correct place to ask, but I am using GOS on my 9 Pro and getting very mediocre SOT, like 5hrs. And that is WITH the following modifications:

  • Play Service has unrestricted battery for notifications

  • Everything else, if applicable, has restricted battery and no background network.

I have 2 profiles but only 1 is active, the Owner one. The secondary i rarely use and I make sure to "end session".

The main Owner profile runs default launcher, browser, some messaging apps, youtube, some google stuff, proton stuff. VPN is not on. Display is high res (lowest setting). Smooth display is off. All other stuff like wake on lift, tap to check, AOD...etc. are all OFF.

What is your SOT and what settings did you make?

That doesn't seem normal. You should ask on the GrapheneOS forum, or search there. There will be tons of responses! https://discuss.grapheneos.org/

You should be getting more like 1-2 days of battery life depending on use... I found that typically there's a slight improvement over stock OS.
