Power Management Settings - which are safe to turn off? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi all,
I'm using Schap's Advanced Config to tweak my TD. I've now come to the Power Management settings (or 'Power Managment', as Schap calls them...) and I was wondering what these different settings actually apply to, what the individual settings mean, and which are SAFE to turn off with normal use:
- SD Memory
- AsyncMac1
- Irsir1
- PPTP1
- L2TP1
Thx.

dunno wat they mean
but i turned off the first 4 and the battery life seems pretty good (together with TLR's ROM 3)

I'm using this cab file i created myself with the following Power Management settings.
HKLM\Comm\AsyncMac1\Parms
HKLM\Comm\PPTP1\Parms
HKLM\Comm\L2TP1\Parms
HKLM\Drivers\SDCARD\ClientDrivers\Class\MMC_Class
HKLM\Drivers\SDCARD\ClientDrivers\Class\NAND_Class
HKLM\Drivers\SDCARD\ClientDrivers\Class\SDMemory_Class
HKLM\Drivers\SDCARD\ClientDrivers\Class\SIM_Class
DisablePowerManagement set to 0 on all options

Interesting... even through I install your cab, when I enter Schap's Advanced Config after soft resetting the device, all the power management features still appear as "Enabled". Any explanation for this?

okay i must admit this thread confused the heck out of me.
i thought it's advisable to turn on power management for all of the above mentioned items.
when i first checked on a stock rom, these were all disabled, so i enabled them.
are you saying now that they should be disabled for improved battery life?

In Schap's Advanced Config under Power Management it says that disabling these settings will improve battery life.... but I don't know which settings are SAFE to turn of with normal use. That's why I started this thread.

No, it says enabling those settings will improve battery life.
"Enable or disable power managment for xyz. Power managment reduces power consumption when xyz is not used."
So I enabled all those settings, but I don't know if that changed anything at all.

The registry setting is: DisablePowerManagement
so if you want to enable power management (i guess you will, to extend battery life) you should set it to 0
I have no idea whether schaps advanced config sets this to 0 or 1 as i'm not using it.

Okay, I'll try that. Any reason why you haven't disabled "Irsir1"?

I just searched my registry for DisablePowerManagement, found those 7 options and set them to 0

Sorry... You're missing the point. I want to find out which settings actually conserve power.

Talking about wifi turning off? These registry settings will prevent wifi from turning off when the screen is turned off. Apply the changes then soft reset your X1.
Keep WIFI on during suspend:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Suspend\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Power\State\Unattended\{98C5250D-C29A-4985-AE5F-AFE5367E5006}
-change (Default) DWORD Dec to 1
.....or you can download "advanced configuration tool" and do it with a single click on a checkbox.
thx a lot ill try both!

Where is the app power management?

Read somewhere that the power consumption can be adjusted to separate apps, iex, i just want Facebook to notify me about new messages, notif etc, not the rest of the apps to save power.
Cant find that menu, anyone?
How about the notification signs on each app icon (digits) like on iphone, any good plugin for that?
Thanks

Ah, why cant they hide menus even better so its even harder to find
Thanks :cyclops:
I wouldn't call settings>power management hard to find
Its obvious that most system settings will be in settings
And power management being a sub menu isn't exactly hidden
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
I meant the settings under the Stamina button, its not very obvious theres another menu hidden on the side of a slider button, hence why i couldnt find it in the first place... but hey, im used to logical intuitive structure on iphones, so i guess im spoiled

[Q] Power Saver shortcut

Hi all.
Does anyone know of a way to turn on the Power Saver with 1 click from a shortcut on one of the home screens?
It's in the extended quick settings of most custom roms, so I know a 1-click solution must be possible, but couldn't find anything obvious on how to do it. I'd just like it as shortcut on my home screen (& also as a result be able to run it from tasker!)
Any ideas?
Col.
Bump...
Still can't find a way to do this.
As I said above, i'm sure there must be a way to do it, otherwise how could custom rom's extended quick settings (ViperOne rom is a prime example) activate it with one click
Any ideas anyone?
Maybe there's a shell command that would work?
With 4.2.2 you can activate it only in settings or with the viper in the EQS.
But also in other rom if you will change the EQS number
Two fingers swipe from notification bar and 1 click-Power saver on/off !

Yes, I am currently running the ViperOne rom & that's what made me think it could be possible. On ViperOne's EQS, you have one click to turn on the Power Saver. It doesn't open the power manager app and "click" the button to turn on the power saver, so logically there is some code in the Viper EQS that can turn on the power saver directly. I wanted to know if that could be done in a separate app, or what the direct command is (shell command?). With an app or shell command, I could turn on the power saver from a Tasker profile.

Didn't know about the 2 finger swipe though... Useful, but again isn't quite what I want. Thanks though.

I don't know if it still works.. I haven't used it in years, but have you tried setting up a shortcut via the AnyCut app or other similar applications?
EDIT: Appears AnyCut is gone. QuickShortcutMaker from the Play store is another being recommended according to my googlefu.

Tried that, there is a way to get a shortcut direct to the Power Settings app, but not to turn on the Saver directly. Lots of other direct shortcuts though which may be useful in future!
Still searching...
Anyone got any other ideas or know of a developer to pm?

Tasker will do it:
Create a task called Power Saver (or whatever you want) and select 'Load App'.
Check the 'Show All' box in the app list, and Power Saver Settings becomes visible.
Should have a home screen shortcut to toggle the power saver mode.

That's what i'm doing at the moment, but it only opens the power saver settings, i still have to "click" the button to turn the power save on.
I can't find a power saver widget on my rom (ViperOne)...should there be one?

I see. Well you could try Power Toggles app. I used it for a while and it is very good. It should allow you to use a widget to toggle the power saver mode.

Yes, and it works!
Credit to @j to the 4n
As I said in the ViperOne thread, the precise shell command that worked on my phone was...
sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db "update 'system' set value='1' where name='user_powersaver_enable';"
value='0' works for disable as well
and my recent comment....
colthekid said:
After some testing on this last night I can confirm what @j to the 4n said, it is turning the power saver on (you can see the screen dim after 20-30 seconds), but it's not immediately updating the quicksettings icon, although again, it does update eventually (especially after a screen off/on). The status bar notification also doesn't appear. However if, as said above, you open the power settings, the notification appears and it also updates the quicksettings icon.

[Fix/Tips] Battery drain and performance problems

Hello guys, I want to try to help everyone who has problems with battery life and performance.
First of all, I want to say that you shouldnt have any problems if you use your device in a normal way(calling ,social networking apps, playing light games etc)
A SOT of around 4-5h on mobile network or a SOT of 5-6h on WiFi is really good and in my opinion normal and you shouldnt need to worry about. Over night while you are sleeping (8h for example) your battery shouldnt drain more than 3-5%.
If you have much less SOT or much more battery drain over night, you should read the following steps and try them.
(I can tell you that my OP3 never drains more than 3-4% over night and I have no problem getting 4-5h SOT on mobile network or 5-6h or even more on WiFi use only. I have to say I dont use Facebook or twitter for example, but I have my Bluetooth always turned on because i use a mi band)
Please try the following steps and tell me if it did help you. (Please choose one option in the pool)
1. Activate doze mode and aggressive doze mode in developer options and change the animation scale
- Go into settings -> developer options -> Doze mode -> activate it
- Go into Settings ->Battery ->3 Dots Menu ->Agressive doze & app hibernation ->Tap the slider and activate for apps
- Go into settings -> developer Options -> Window Animation scale/Transitions Animation scale/Animator duration scale -> set them to .5x or even off
2. Install Greenify from Google Play Store and activate it
Activate it for every app you can, except for apps with a little blue cloud as they need to work in background to sync data. (WhatsApp for example)
3. Wipe cache after every update and from time to time (I recommend once a week)
Turn off your phone -> hold power button and volume down button -> release the power when your phone turns on -> select english by pressing the volume down button and then the power button -> go to wipe cache and data -> select cache (and nothing else!) and press the power button -> reboot now
4. Turn off potential power hogs you dont necessarily need
- For example turn off Bluetooth, GPS Location and Location history, Mobile Data if not in use, WiFi if not in use and NFC -> you can find them in settings under their name
- Also turn off things like gestures in settings: Go into settings -> Gestures -> turn them off
5. Use pocket mode
Settings -> Advanced -> Pocket Mode
6. Turn off Android Device Manager and Google Now Cards
- Settings -> Security & Fingerprint -> Device Administrators -> Android Device-Manager -> turn it off
- Open your Google App -> Settings -> Your Feed -> Turn off Feed
7. Configure your WiFi
- Settings -> Wifi -> tap the gear symbol -> turn off "Scanning always available"
- You can also turn off "Keep wifi on during sleep" but i dont recommend it as apps like WhatsApp will only receive messages when you turn your screen back on!
8. Use adaptive brightness
Use the little "A" in the dropdown settings menu next to your screen brigthness bar
9. Use a Browser that is developed for Snapdragon devices
I recommend using Gello Mod or TugaBrowser as they are developed especaily for using with a device with a snapdragon CPU to save battery -> just search for them in Google
10. Disable permissions of apps
Try disabling permissions of apps if possible. This should prevent apps from using your internet connection and staying in background keeping your CPU awake. Please be aware that some specific apps need some specific rights to work properly. Use the try and error method here.
11. If u have custom recovery installed you can use custom kernels such as ex kernel ,boeffla kernel, blu spark etc for better battery and performance.

This is a big guide and it's worth reading
Hit the thanks button if this helps:good:
These tips are like from 2010 which you come across random articles from web.. I thought you would post something new...
Also 3h sot on mobile network... I have used couple of phones past year never got such a bad backup on any of them..
Really stupid article.
For OB9 and above, what i have found that if you are using both greenify and aggressive doze, battery would drain like hell, Android System used to be always on top of stats with 25-30% of drain. Disabling aggressive doze and just using greenify solved this issue, and now Android System is back to normal.
pls guys, he trying to help .
if it works thanks him, if not find other tips
dont be so rude :fingers-crossed:
Sent from my OnePlus3 using XDA Labs
Wipeing is not necessary if not dump cause the phone has to build it up again and will use resources for that.
Thanks man, in my opinion, it's a good guide for beginners I'm not a beginner, I've just created a new user name
Thanks for sharing all these tips and references. As some mentioned I'd refrain or at least keep greenify as a last resort. Cheers

Greyscale display mode on Note 9 Pie variant

When I had a OnePlus I would use it's greyscale display feature quite often, very useful for power saving etc.
I am aware that within Google devices running Pie that a greyscale option is available along with Do Not Disturb.
This feature does not appear to be ported over the the Samsung Note 9, which is a shame.
Does anyone know of a third party app or Tasker feature that could enable greyscale mode on the Note 9 where required?
Thx
You can enable Monocromacy in the Simulate colour space option in Dev options and probably get a similar effect.
Go to settings -> accessibility -> visibility enhancements -> colour adjustment , turn it on and select greyscale.

Many thanks for the tip. This achieves the desired result but is a bit fiddly, do you know if this is accessible via Tasker, or does a shortcut exist?

I made my own Tasker task shortcut on the main screen for this purpose.
The task only uses one action:
Add action -> Settings -> Custom setting
Type: Secure
Name: accessibility_display_daltonizer_enabled
Value: =:=toggle=:=
If it doesn't work for you, you can try finding the correct custom action with built-in Find function.
I see you got an answer regarding tasker. I can't help with tasker cause I've been too lazy to dig into it yet

Under the accesibility settings go to advanced settings, from there you can set the power + vol up shortcut to control the monocromacy. I've gotten quite used to this function on a OnePlus 6 and have been using it this way on the Note 9.
I think the OP6's reading mode gave it a yellowish, e-reader like tint though, which made it better imo.
