Strange Galaxy S25 battery drain issue in the US has an easy fix

8 May 2026 at 07:41

Samsung Galaxy S25 users in the US, specifically on T-Mobile, are experiencing a strange battery drain issue. Growing reports from affected users have forced Samsung to develop a solution, and it’s easier than you might think.

Some Galaxy S25 users on T-Mobile may have been facing excessive battery drain in the US. The temporary solution provided by Samsung suggests that the issue is linked to a system app, which can be easily resolved.

It seems the latest version of the Mobile Services app is the primary culprit. That said, the workaround demands a rollback to the previous factory version until the patch arrives.

While the workaround is here, Samsung may patch the problem in the next software update. The rollout of One UI 8.5 has begun, and US users are expected to get it starting May 11.

How to fix Galaxy S25 battery drain

Samsung recommends users to downgrade the Mobile Services app. One moderator in the US community has also shared the steps (via Larry S White) to uninstall updates of this application.

On your Galaxy phone, first open Settings, then open Apps, press the filter and sort icon to the right of Apps. Once done, turn on Show System Apps and search Mobile Services.

Now, you need to hit the Uninstall updates key and confirm it by tapping OK.

Tip – Before you uninstall updates, take a screenshot of the app’s version number shown at the bottom. Compare the difference in the version number after uninstalling updates to ensure everything was right.

The issue seems limited to the Galaxy S25 series on T-Mobile. Meanwhile, it should also improve the battery drain problem across Samsung phones. Even if you don’t have an S25, try this workaround to check if battery life improves.
