Need battery saving rom - HD7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible?

Everything is possible...
The fact is here on XDA that we have to be patient with all the improvements that the cooks are making.

you also can do the following:
1. download and install a ROM of your choice!
2. disable 3G and data connection
3. disable location service
4. disable WLAN
5. disable Blutooth
6. disable Isharing
7. ONLY running a theme with dark background and green tiles!!!

You could also try this with any stock rom... just for testing if it works

[Q] LED Notification + Notes writing

Hi Guys;
Is there a working APP for HD2 which can set LED on for charging, blinking for missed call etc?I tried many from Market but worked very weirdly!
Also i am missing the old notes of WIndows mobile where we could write with the hand to save a note.I found an app for Android but it saves as an image and then it cannot be modified any more
Any suggestions for these two?
Thanks
For the first one:
If you're using a CM7 based build,(it should already be enabled) but you can set it from settings>cyanogenmod. Otherwise, install "Led Me know" from market.
For the second:
Sorry, I don't know
Thanked.But where is the LED in the CM settings?i cannot find it.I have American android!

Weird, I have it on CM7 (HyperDroid NAND) . Your best bet is to try Led Me know.
P.S : (it possibly could be due to the light libraries, maybe AmericAndroid is using the new ones? ) idk )
LED me know works great.
Thanks

Yes you can change the status bar icons, easiest way is to use rom toolbox, or you can use so something like ninjamorph, or get down and dirty and use apk tool to decompile and change them manually.
And the Google search is a feature for adw launcher, you can remove it in the settings

for the google bar i tried every point in adw-setup but no one removes it

you mean the quick toggles. Yes you can, but it has to be done the hard way, by decompiling the apk, i'm not even sure if it's systemUI.apk or framework-res.apk. Ask in the official thread and maybe the OP can tell you

well in the meantime i would get the android sdk, and apktool or apk manager and start learning how to decompile and recompile apks. When this rom hits a final version i'll be trying my hand at themeing(i have very little experience at it, mdae a few minor changes in some apks but i know how it should be done)

that's weird. currently i have 49% at 20 hours with 2+ hours of screen on time and wifi on all that time(connected to a network the whole time, no scanning)
While that's really good, i have been at home most of that time and not using it too much. But i normally use about 2 hours screen, 2-6 hours of music and it is just about dying at bedtime, so i get 12 hours normally. What's top of your battery stats? did you wipe data and cache when installing and have you done a full drain and recharge since flashing

Firstly I would thanks you for your great job. Anyway i have two issues regarding your ROM :
- Could you please indicate how I can disable the backgound data? It seems that they are still to run (in bleu), and then, use some battery ?
- It could possible to let the old task manager from motorola for a next release or following a patch?
Thanks in advance for your support and your understanding for a new user

I can answer this one. When you pull down the notification bar, there are a set of toggle controls at the top. If you swipe the controls from right to left, the toggle that is second from the right (two arrows that are parallel, one pointing up, one pointing down) is a data toggle. Tap that once to turn data off.

Thanks for your help, nevertheless i meant about the syncro of data, running in backgroung, when the 3G icone and signal came in blue. I tried to tap on and off the syncro button in toggle, whitout effect.
Do you have another advice? This issue happened only for me?

On a blank area of a homescreen that is 4 columns wide add the widget "power control widget". The fourth widget - a circle that contains two arrows pointing at each other's tails - is the data synchronization toggle. This will keep data on but stop accounts from syncing in the background.

Thanks again for your help. In fact I have already tried tu put on and off this toggle bouton without result.
My problem here, that is the background data are still working. To explain my issue, the wireless/3G items and signal are colored in blue in notification bar, that is mean the background data is on, so, use much battery.
This option could been put on and off following this manipulation Menu > Settings > Battery data manager > Delivery > Background data.
Then, how can I disable the background data as this settings had been deleted in the ROM?
Hopping been more clear.

Not all icon sets have coloured and uncoloured icons. The 3g icons I use are always blue. Can someone confirm that the icons used in this rom support this?

Another comment : as instance, when you go to the play store application, you haven't to put on the background data...you come automaticly into the market, indicating the background data work without limitation.

Switched from On to Off and vice versa without problems here. 4.1.2 Retail.
for me it switch on/off
omar rom- pretty old release
Here fc, too. On AIO-Mod and stock-launcher
via RazR I & Tapatalk 4
I think moto did something really weird to the settings app ^^
nothing special happens.
stock JB
Switches like if I used a toggle. Stock ROM.
Works fine on my latest ROM , phew! (toggles without FC).
But If it bothers you make a nandroid backup just in case and then perform a data wipe, boot clean and try again!
Just discovered what causes this bug, (at least in my phone, modded stock rom)
Disable ALL accessibility services and try again..

Post Root Mods and Enabling Hidden Features

Have a freshly rooted AT&T 5.0.2 s6 using pinpong and wondering what next? Here are a few mods and changes that I've made so far to improve my AT&T S6. (info pulled from various forums and threads, posting things here that are specific to the ATT S6). Have more to add? Post it!
Useful Apps Requiring Root:
Titanium Backup, AdAway (available from Fdroid website), Greenify, Tasker for enablign GPS when opening maps.
Debloater tool (root not required) available in this post: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/debloater-remove-carrier-bloat-t2998294
FlashFire (needed for flashing roms, custom themes, etc): Download Here
Enabling / Adding Hidden Features:
Quite a few features are available to the ATT S6 by modding features.xml using Wanam's CSC Feature Expert. The steps I list below are using that app. You can download it from playstore, and it requires root: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ma.wanam.cscexpert. Below is what i used, but more options are found in this thread, although ATT seems to have many of them already by default: http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...uick-guide-enabling-hidden-features-t3087506/
Hide Wifi Notification in Pulldown:
Search configwifi. Click item and delete "ATT"
Enable WiFI Calling: option to enable is under phone settings
Search WifiCall. Click on Item and add: "True"
Enable Call Recording!!: (recordings are found in voice recorder app)
Search configrecord. Click on item and add: "RecordingAllowed"
Mods:
Disable Bootsound:
Go to file folder: System / Media / Audio / UI. Find file "poweron.ogg" and rename it to "poweron.ogg.bak"
Roms:
Scotty's Clean Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att...om-cleanrom-1-0-clean-smooth-stable-t3111330/
Xstreolite Rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/att-galaxy-s6/general/xtrestolite-rom-att-s6-t3140354
Custom Themes:
Dark Theme (Sweet and does work on ATT): http://forum.xda-developers.com/ver...-theme-s6e-t3108155/post60726132#post60726132
Still Working On:
Disable headphone / bluetooth volume warning
Remove AT&T text from upper left statusbar
Thanks for the helpful thread!.. I can finally use the GMD gestures app I'd say thats an essential root app for me.
Any word on the xposed framework for lollipop?
edit: WAIT we can use WIFI calling on ATT???

Yes, it seems to work too. You open the phone app, click on 'More' then Settings and the option is at the bottom. Be sure to reboot after you make any changes in the CSC to activate them. No word yet on Xposed, but it's almost not needed. Almost....
PS- That gestures app is pretty sweet.

Yeah its awesome i deleted lazy swipe because with this app you can pop up launchbars for your favorite apps from anywhere with a gesture
I enabled wifi calling and rebooted, but I don't see any indication that it is enabled. Even tried making a call, and it seemed like it was over cell not wifi.
Did you enable it in the phone app settings? It's check box at the bottom .
Yea, that's where I enabled it... But didn't get anything that showed it was making calls over wifi.
Did yours give you some sort of icon? And can u take a screen shot of it?
I'd love to hide the auto brightness bar and show more notifications on the lock screen.

Not that I'm aware of. ALso, haven't been able to figure out whether the wifi calling actually is going over wifi or not.
Bypass Tether Check
I see that Verizon Mods have enabled tethering through the framework, anyone see these options anywhere. Would love to use tethering on my Unlimited.
I would like to know that too but I have wifi router installed and it works. I also would like to know how to get the download Booster to work I tried doing that shortcut deal through Nova and it keeps on going away
Boot Animation
I didn't create this/ don't own it. I apologize if I am stepping on the creator's toes. I have had it for a while but it works with our s6 and removes the white att boot screen, but keeps the samsung part.
MUST FLASH WITH FLASHFIRE.
Silent power on, charging and wireless charging sounds.
Unrar on PC or on andrioid. Replace files (I use Root Explorer) in system/media/audio/ui, and change permissions. Reboot.
Used a rar file so one doesn't think it flashable!
Change permissions to rw - r - r (just copy the permission setting of any of the other, unchanged sounds in that system/media/audio/ui folder).
This is similar to the mod in the op except it replaces the boot sound with a short, 2 second silent sound. I had problems of other sounds playing instead if I just changed to .bak, hence I made these sound files.

[Trick] Make AOD useful again

So you tried AOD (Always On Display) on your favorite Port ROM, you like it but you don't use it anymore because of battery issue.
A way to avoid this would be, like application bases AOD do, to enable this feature only if the phone is on charge. Unfortunatly, this settings is not available. I found a way (somewhere, by somebody else, all credit to him) using Tasker to do it:
Once you have Tasker and Secure Settings (paid apps, but in my opinion, really worth it if you like customizing your device), open Tasker and do the following :
1. On the Tasks tab, create a new task called for example ‘AOD On’
2. In that new task, add an action (Category = Plugin, then Secure Settings)
3. Edit the configuration in the new screen and select Actions => Device Setting
4. In that screen, the Setting Table should stay at ‘system’, and the Setting Name should be ‘aod_mode’. The Setting Value should be set to ’1′.
5. Save the task and create another task with the same steps but call it ‘AOD Off’ and set the Setting Value to ’0′.
6. Once both tasks have been created, go to the Profiles Tab and create a new profile and select ‘State’.
7. Select state category => Power => Power
8. Leave Source as Any, and Invert unchecked.
9. Save the profile, choose the correct task (‘AOD On’), call it ‘Charging’ for example
10. Create a second profile called ‘Not Charging’ exactly the same way but with the ‘Invert’ of step 8 checked, and select the task ‘AOD Off’.
UPDATE : Solution No2 (+ disable AOD when battery is low)
1. Download this app (paid),
2. Don't forget to select the features you want to enable,
3. Thanks @erghetto in post #2 !
4. Voila !
Both solutions works fine on my S8 port. AOD becomes useful again !!!
Or simply use this:

Well honestly I tried all app based AOD and it's like lock screen app : more features, nice looking but not so well implemented that stock (security, look and feel, Speed...).
But if you are ok with it...

Maybe you didn't even open that link.
It is an app that simply activates aod only when phone is in charge (plus another feature)
So no need to download tasker or any other app.
It is paid, but also one app you suggests need be payed, so this one is simpler and doesn't require any configuration with tasker or similar

Ok, ok, I see, you're right, it's a good alternative. Now it depends if you already use Tasker or not, but for people who don't and don't want to bother with all Tasker settings, that's a nice app I didn't know !
