turning screen completely off? - Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General

is there a way that make the kaiser's screen off completely without going to sleepmode?
because when i press the power button wifi disconnects, otherwise the screen drains a lot of battery needlesly with the dimmed light...

Download Kaisertweak and enable wifi during sleep mode.
Or use Quickmenu that has a shortcut to "turn screen off".
But you'll notice that what drains the battery the most is Wifi, not the screen. Expect 4-5 hours of battery life with Wifi on, even on standby.

How come there's backlight when in standby mode?

When my phone is standby, it's randomly activating backlight with black screen......why?
I have this problem too. When the device is sleeping, the backlight randomly switches on and stays on for longer than 5 minutes (even though I set the device to disable the backlight automatically every 30 seconds and enter sleep mode every 1 minute). This surely reduces the battery life.
After a hard reset it's fixed already.
Probably the registry or adv config/HDtweak is screwed up.

[Q] Longer Screen Timeout Delay?

The wifi going off when Nook is sleeping is about the only thing about "Rooty" that bothers me. Is there a way to extend the screen timeout delay beyond 1 hour? And to help with the resultant battery life is there a way to to dim the screen more than the minimum on Color Tools?
(An hour later) I am running WakeTimer keeping the CPU and Screen locked on, and to possibly reduce battery usage and possible image persistence I have black picture up. Hit 'n' Rooty has been awake the whole time, WiFi still connected. Checking to see what the does to battery life.
9.5% per hour. Wi Fi stays on.

Medium Power saving mode, GPS not working properly?

I get "GPS signal lost", while driving in the middle of nowhere. When I switched power saving off GPS stayed connected.
This is normal? I had power saving on all the time on my Note 5.... But not 100% sure...

Battery drain with WiFi and Data turned on simultaneously

I Have notice that battery of note 8 drains quickly when switches for both WiFi and Data are turned on.
I turn both on for the purpose that when I am out of range of WiFi, data will turn on seamlessly, and when WiFi is available, it will switch back to it.
With both switches on, even when only WiFi is in use, the battery seems to drain quickly.
Battery life is tremendously improved when only WiFi or data Switch is on.
Any ideas as to what is the problem?
Main element to drain battery after screen is Device Idle.
Attachment: idea as to what I am talking about.

If you leave the WiFi enabled all the time. Your device will constantly scan for a network, which you are signed onto. That drains the battery. Unfortunately you need to disbaled WiFi connectivity when you are not gonna use it to preserve power.
You can disable mobile data connection while you are connected to WiFi. This is done throw developer options

Does Motion Sense destory battery life?

Just curious, if having Motion Sense on hurts battery life much? I only have the minimal of Motion Sense enabled, just Reach to check phone only. Skip songs off. Silence interruptions off. Always on display off.
And my Display settings I have Reach to check phone On. Tap to check phone On. Lift to check phone On.
Do these settings effect battery much, or not at all? What do you recommend for best battery life for Motion Sense and Display settings?
I have my settings exactly like you do actually. I can only assume they are helping battery life vs having all the motion sense settings on. I have no need for the others for my usage currently though that may change.
It's a 10% drain overnight sleeping with literally nothing swinging above it. For me that's a huge drain that I will not put up with. I disabled everything just like you and it was the same, doesn't matterwhat's feature your enable or disable, if you have it enabled it rains cuz it's constantly trying to send motion above it. At least that's what my testing showed.
I have it disabled altogether because that function is literally useless. When you can enable "turn screen on pick up" or "turn screen on with a tap"

I turned off Motion Sense couple days ago, but in my battery use, showing which things used the most, #2 on the list was Ambient Display. But with Motion Sense off, what's using Ambient Display?
I did turn AoD back on, so is it the always on display draining?
I was having great battery life yesterday, at end of day, bedtime I had like 5h 30m SoT with like 33% battery life left. I didn't charge overnight, and this morning checked the phone and it was at 19%. I was like, how the heck did the phone lose like 10% overnight, when not in use, but unplugged. It's on WiFi. Does Always on Display kill it?
I initially used it but eventually just turned it off. I have a couple of trusted devices set up (my watch and my car) so my phone is never locked when I'm near it. Also, since the screen touch to activate works so well, I can tap the screen to check notifications so having Soli turn on the screen before I can touch it, but still needing to reach for it, it just didn't seem to be worth feeding it electrons just for that. Perhaps when they work out some more useful functions, like volume or muting, I'll turn it back on.
My battery life is like Zorachus (though I keep it on a charging stand overnight so I don't care about idle drain). I did this in the first couple of days of owning the phone before battery usage stabilized so I don't really know if it drains it significantly or not. Maybe I'll turn it on one day just to see.
With motion sense off but always on display on throughout the day yesterday and evening I was getting really good battery life I think I was just concerned cuz I left the phone at like 35% last night before bed I purposely didn't plug it in just to see and when I wake up and it had like 20% battery life so it went down over 10% while I was sleeping and I have everything pretty much turned off no location finder no push notifications I've got it stripped down pretty good on Wi-Fi so not sure what happened?
Mine dropped that much overnight Saturday but that was also the weekend I went 46 hours between charges and got 5-something hours of screen time (the only thing shut off was Soli and NFC (WiFi, BT, data, Location services, AOD, etc. were all on). Idle drain of ~1-1.5% per hour doesn't sound that bad to me.
hmmmm after reading this i turned motion sense totally off and AOD back on and will see the battery life over the next two days and compare.

Seems Motion Sense is a drainer, but AoD not so much. So for me, using my Pixel 4 XL with no Motion Sense, my battery life lately;
My battery life on my 4 XL seems to be all over the board, but it's never less than 5.5h SoT, and that's at the 10% mark when battery saver kicks in. Some days it seems I can get close to 7.5h SoT if run down to 1%. So I'd say I get on average 6.5h+ SoT.
I get better battery life at work, where my mobile signal is perfect connection, never searching. So that helps keep battery drain down.
- 90hz forced on always ( too nice and smooth not to keep on )
- Motion Sense off
- AoD on ( always on display )
- Location off always. Anything GPS related off
- Lift to reach on
- Tap display to turn on
- Display set to auto brightness always
I've always had it on, so, not sure what the difference is. But, my phone lasts from 6am and still has 30+ percent of battery left at 10pm. Definitely getting a full 20-24+ hours.
I have Soli on full, AOD, smooth display forced on, location on full, lift to wake off, tap to wake on, auto brightness on.
Does anybody use their Pixels with AOD off and Motion Sense on..? How's that affecting the battery..?
And, with that setup, when you reach for you phone, does it turn on the screen when the radar is triggered?
Yes that's the setup I have with only reach to wake turned on. Yes, it does wake up the screen and start looking for your face. Need to check the idle drain overnight.
Cant really say destroyed. It is a little less for me but definitely useable if one really likes the features. And thats coming from a small pixel 4.
