Having a severe battery drain issue. Went from 100% to 20% in about 4 hours. It looks like something is constantly using internet because the little arrow wont go away on wither the wifi or LTE. Last build was great but this one is really bad. Fast ring build 15223 on a Lumia 950xl DS.

Yes i have but that only seems to drop the battery percentage more. I obviously have just rebooted it as well. I don't want to Factory reset it because i have a bunch n of apps that are no longer in the store and i don't want to lose them other wise i would try that

I'm on Release Preview & just noticed it myself on Lumia 950XL DS ...
Don't know what's up?

Thought it was an app (Instagram w 6tag), but uninstalled both, soft reset ... to NO avail.

I dont know how to see what apps "spit up". I know if I turn off all internet (wifi and data) battery life mostly goes back to normal, but I still cant tell what is using it.

Also of note, OneDrive isnt letting me uninstall it or even reset it. There's about 8-10 pictures thats are stuck in the camera upload que. I cant get rid of them and they won't upload. Tried disabling apps that run in the background and it didnt seem to do anything.
