Lumia 950 battery drains rapidly

Update on my issue:

After update to ver. .29, battery improved mildly.  However, it still drained with minimal usage.  At night, it wouldn't even fully recharge on my wireless dock.  However, I turned the phone off then on, and that improved battery life.  It's like the processes accumulate as the phone runs, and really start wearing on the battery.  By turning it off, I dumped a bunch of those.   That, or Msft fixed something on its end.

Today, I took the phone off the charging stand at 6:30, and at 3:30, I have 65%, with email coming in, and some mild usage.  In the past, I'd be at 40% or less.

Yesterday I have the same problem, the only way I found is to reinitialised the phone, not restore data, and reinstal all manualy, now Phone is ok

I just got the .29 update and see no improvements to battery time whatsoever. If anything, things are even worse generally, with Windows Hello dying on me constantly now. Oh, and the phone just rebooted by itself last night.

PS. For those interested in what I am struggling with when I'm not recharging my phone, have a look at my OneDrive woes. Good thing it didn't cost like an iPhone. /s

Full backup, Reset, restore, add back apps, check for update, get the .29 update, initialize apps, all is good. Even while pounding on apps firing them up and getting logged in, phone did not get warm. When idle it is now stone cold.

Not fun, but it looks like a full reset has done the trick for me, too.

A full rest would not hurt b, just the .29 update is all you need. I never did the factory reset. I'm on day 3 after update and pleased with my phone now.

Oops, sorry-specifically"Battery Saver" App.

don't need an app to shut off the stuff i use. Obviously if i use airplane mode ill save battery. MS neesd to fix this.
