Stop forcing my phone to update.

 
For the people who come in here to tell me that you can delay it, no you can't. it will eventually force the update anyway. Samsung, fix this broken functionality, it's been a problem for years at this point, I'm going to stop buying Samsung products.

this is the support app for Samsung devices. if they can't figure out how to take this feedback that they receive constantly, that's just more proof of my point lol. actually how did you assume this was a post for users to help me on and not a post for Samsung to receive as feedback?

my only other post here is something that was sent to the feedback team and implemented in the most recent update to one ui. Samsung can figure it out.

Samsung needs to fix this. My phone was perfect until the recent update. This is ridiculous. I'm not buying another Samsung, this should be a lawsuit against whoever is causing the battery issues

Ok. I'll ask.
How long ago did you download the update? For the first week or so your devices is rearranging files, apps are downloading updates, everything is being shuffled around. Of course your battery is taking a beating.
Have you wiped the cache yet? Something that needs to be done
With every update and done pretty regularly.

1. Power off your device.
2. Power up while holding down the Volume up key and the Side key until the Samsung logo appears.
3. An Android recovery menu will appear.
4. Use the Volume down key to scroll down to Wipe cache partition.
5. Click the side key to select it.
6. Use the Volume down key to scroll down to Yes.
7. Click the side key to select it. The Cache will be wiped almost instantaneously.
8. Click the side key to select "Reboot system now"
In case you've never done this before.

Every update you ever had over the last several years was "forced" on you.  You just don't like this one.
