Recent upgrade

[alanmetchem]

Since your recent upgrade, something called IMS Framework is using at least 40% of battery power, and the battery is running down is as little a 3 hours, with no use. The phone is almost useless. What is the fix for this? Please don't tell me to do a factory reset as I don't want to lose all my setting, game setting etc.

Hi, what phone do you have and what firmware version?

This could be linked to RCS, some customers have been having issues with this on some phones.

It's a Samsung Galaxy S4, Android 4.2.2. Not sure which number relates to the firmware, but the baseband number is 19505xxugnh7....

You should be able to Disable the RCS Service, which will hopefully restore your battery life?

Yeah seems to be the same issue here

Good point TSD. On my phone, not an S4, its in settings, more, rich communication and untick it to deactivate.
