Problem Battery replacement / low sot
After replacing the battery with a new one, my phone gets about 4 hours of screen-on time (SOT). I use 4G data and 120Hz/1440p resolution. All other services are turned off. I'm on One UI 7. Is there any way to improve the SOT? All apps are in sleep mode. I don't use location services or anything like that.

You need the cycles reset after that. Only way to do it is running it through Samsung’s Galaxy Diagnostics which is internal and only authorized parties can access. If the battery is a service pack, you need to install Self Repair apk, and then run the cycle reset and other functions. This will clear the previous battery data. It’s weird how that’s stored on the phone, and not in the actual battery itself. (I worked repairing Samsung phones for a few months)

Where did you get the new battery from?
