I have noticed when my phone's battery was getting low (without SYSTEM POWER SAVING turned on), zooming into pictures did very poorly.
It worked fine again after charging. So does the Note have an automatic performance cut to conserve battery even without turning on any Power Saving from the device.
Does turning on System Power Saving slow down the performance?
If so, will turning it off automatically bring back the Note's performance to normal? If it had turned off some other things like animation, will it turn it on again once I uncheck System Power Saving?
Or is there something else I have to do to bring back the speed that was lost due to power saving?
I notice the camera fails to function at low battery too.
The P20 Pro's power saving option seems to get activated automatically when the battery gets low, and does not automatically deactivate whe the phone gets charged up again so I have to manually remember to disable it, meanwile wondering why push messaging isn't working properly. Anyone know either
How to stop it automatically enabling when the battery gets low, or
How to make it automatically turn off when the battery is charged up again
Anyone?

However, you might be confusing the battery with an exclamation mark(battery low notification) for the power saver icon ( leaf inside battery indicator)

The link seems to be about getting the Android power saving mode to activate automatically, not deactivate. And I think my issue may be Huawei's power saving mode, not even the standard Android battery saver that's kicking in.
Problem is that when the battery gets low, the phone does indeed go into a mode where background checks for things like mail stop. That's fine when the battery is low but unless I remember to turn the power saving mode off manually I'm left suddenly noticing I'm not getting mail notifications even after the phone is charged... The normal battery saving mode on stock Android automatically disables when the phone is charged, but that's not what's happening here.
I'm currently dealing with an extremely specific bug with my Redmi 8 running stock MIUI 11. Whenever the battery falls below 15%, both the Wi-Fi and mobile internet stop working, while still appearing as connected. Every single application I try behaves as if the signal was extremely low. Connecting the phone to the charger immediately returns the internet to normal, plugging it off before the battery reaches 15% immediately kills the internet again. Is there some hidden configuration to control the trigger that automatically disables the internet connection?
There must be a battery saving app that restricts connectivity when battery falls to 15% and allows reconnection when charger connected.

There's the problem, outside of the default applications that come with MIUI, I have nothing else that is supposed to restrict connectivity exactly at 15%. Does someone have a list of which MIUI applications are capable of changing system parameters depending on the level of the battery? Because it looks like I'll have to debug something in order to reset some apps.
I have the same device with the same software (I have the indian version of miui) but my phone behaves differently and not at 15% but at 20%. What happens is that notifications suddenly stop coming. At 15% vibrations and click sounds stop. But I have no issue with connectivity. Apps work normal I just don't receive notifications.
Battery saver settings must be setted wisely as per your needs. All problems will be resolved.
This is somewhat trivial, but I can't figure out what is causing the Polaris ringtone to play at times when my S21 Ultra's battery is at 15% or lower. It does not seem to always trigger at 15% - the low battery level--but the battery is always at 15% or lower when it does.
I sometimes can see that System UI has just triggered a notification when Polaris plays, but I'm not sure there's an actual cause and effect there.
Can anyone shed any light on this for me? Is there some app that I may have installed that plays that sound when the battery is low but does not trigger a notification that I can see when I check recent notifications?
Thanks very much!
Hello,
I would like to ask you guys, what apps do you use to save your battery?
Naptime? Anything else?
Nothing... I don't need to install anything to save battery. That being said, I USED to do this with apps like Greenify on my Galaxy Note 3 (so like 9-10 years ago). But I had stopped doing that a while back as doing so had only lead to even less battery life lol.
to be honest, the best battery saver is to uninstall the native Facebook application from your phone. it eats up battery like anything. you will see a noticeable improvement on your daily battery performance.
I've tried naptime and I've not really noticed a huge difference, at least in repeatable conditions, i.e. overnight. Same with Galaxy max Hz, although i like the additional controls that the latter gives
Love Bixby routines to switch to 2G when at home or activate batter saver when sleeping and not charging. Rly good stuff.
I don't use anything to limit battery consumption, but I do use Accubattery to set an alert when my charge reaches 75%. Reducing depth of charge and not charging to full 100% is a way to reduce battery wear, so ultimately that extends battery life.

I kind of do something similar. I've got a Bixby Routine to shut off the smart plug that the charger is plugged into when the Battery percent reaches 80. Unfortunately, Bixby routines isn't very reliable.

I use Accubattery as well to monitor temp and charging.
If you use any power management especially 3rd party ones it can cause erratic behavior and may create conflicts that use more power than they save.
I deal with power hogs directly by either adjusting settings, disabling them or firewall blocking them.
Certain apps like Brave, Gmaps I manually close out when done or will they continue to poll the internet in the background and use power.

You can just turn off all notification and disable(deep sleep) in Background usage limits.
I’ve been using AccuBattery with IFTTT to shut off a smart plug at 75% for several years now to extend my phone’s battery life. This has been very reliable, it runs every morning before I wake up.

what do you mean disable? add facebook to deep sleep list? I noticed it's not working, even if I but it in deep sleep list I still get notifications. And do rly disabling notifications for facebook app improves battery? any source about that?

No, no. The first person essentially said to uninstall that crummy, built-in Facebook app and then to put some apps that you don't need notifications for into deep sleep mode. The second person mentioned the same thing with different wording.
