Nadavi.

Not using sim card for contacts, anyone else face the same problem

looks handy
I've installed it on my tilt without any issues. Although, handango didn't want to let me download it saying its not compatible with my device. So far so good, will post any issues if any.

The right version for Kaiser is http://members.shaw.ca/pockettoolman/PocketToolman2.25b2.CAB
Download
Version: 2.25
File size: 137KB

Looks like they are tweaking the program every day. I think I will wait a few weeks for everything to get sorted out!

Is there any confllict with the other Tweak porgrams mentioned in this forum?

Installed and like it a lot.
I'm not finding the setting to leave the screen on during a phone call, can someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks.

Hi gregeast,
The option "Screen off during call" is location on OS Tweak under the Phone section. Uncheck that checkbox to keep the screen on during phone calls.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm running version 2.25 Build 2. I was running in landscape display and couldn't see the --More-- button on the second OS Tweek screen to get me to Phone. In portrait it's there, just FYI.
Oh, and it worked

Em I the only one who can't find the download link?

ok, I'm a dummy. Where is it?

The download link is on the right column. I'll make it more visible later tonight

I added a "Download" button on the right hand side of the page.

Most Recent Version
Please can anyone let me know if they are using the most recent version of PT2? I am really interested, but have read that the latest version causes glitches and hard-resets. I'm in hospital at the moment and can't afford to brick my phone! Cheers guys.

I was a big fan of PocketToolman on my old phone, but now I'm running manilla2D I don't have the tray down the bottom any more. Does anyone know a good way to get at Pockettoolman with Manilla running?

SGS Config for Excellent Battery Life Return (For Reference)

Here is my current SGS config = Excellent Return on Battery Life
Current ROM - Doc & Kal ver 7.6.2, no lagfix installed - All tweaks enabled via CWM Might Disable-Phone is more responsive and faster but of course to much speed increases battery usage... 50/50 about tweaks imo...
AutoKiller - Settings set to optimal (i personally think strict kills heavily and programs restart to often which in turn uses battery life)
Rooted
Sync - Off
GPS - Off
Auto Rotation - Off & Off in Zeam
Brightness mainly off and minimum in Browser
Using both H/3G and 2G network
Launcher - Zeam
Homescreens - 2
Wallpaper - Dark coloured
Screen 1 - Battstatt (4x1), SiMi Clock (4x1)
Screen 2 - Power Control Plus - 2 options (brightness - Auto and off) & Screen Timeout setting -15 sec & 10 min)
6 icons (win7 type) Used Desktop Visualiser App, Beautiful Weather Widget (Updates Interval Manual)
Themed - Elegant Steel (Whole Rom)
Installed Zeam and ADW as a back up.
Windows Animation - Full
Cache Cleaner Installed
Adfree Android Installed
Xda Installed
GTasks Installed
Sms Backup & Restore installed
Titanium Back Free installed
Asop Stock Lock with extended controls Installed
Couple of other non-essential apps
Thinking about removing(No use for these):
Google Talk
The look of the phone might seem bland, but i prefer simple, clean and polished.
And yes my phone is smooth...But the main thing is the impressive Battery Life returned in use and idle.

Annoying question:
What do you consider excellent and what do you compare it to?

Install juiceplotter and give us some times. I get about 8 hours out of charge or 3hrs if on 3g

Well, not really a comparison but an example of what battery life I can achieve with my set up, of course its not to everyone taste but if you look closely you will see that I don't have any active battery services running constantly.
As it stands now I have achieved a 3% drain in 8 hours overnight idle time with my set up, that extra boost was achieved by removal of beautiful widgets and quite possibly the alteration of my status/notification bar which is no longer a shaded grey but now transparent (gonna add a screen shot today)
But my set up goes to show that you can have excellent battery life, but you have to balance the phone etc. more is less and less is more.
And I think its fair to say that even in daily usage you should by able to get good usage in my set up, because I will have nothing running except for what I am doing, rather then having a double drain.

Thats very bad.
I'm running Froyo 2.2 Scandinavian Update through Kies, Voodoo Lagfix. With the Exchange email bug active (constant 10% cpu load in background), 3g and Bluetooth on and moderate use, i drain from 100% to 20% in 11 hours.
With the Exchange email bug disabled (setting retrieval of email to Never), but with 3G and Bluetooth on, i drain from 100% to 50% in 11 hours with moderate use.
I recommend you to install SystemPanel app and let it monitor CPU usage for a day. The Top apps consuming cpu will become clear. My Galaxy CPU usage with the phoe asleep idles between 1-3%.

i'm on 2 days and 10 hrs since last unplugged and have 8% battery left... using superpower xda... scheduled data on every hour for 5 mins. night time sleep airplane mode. using jp6, rooted, oclf v2 (optimum and deadline).

yes superpower app is really useful for those who want to extend batt life.
ever since i installed it i've been easily having battery life for over 2d (it usually goes down to about 10% after 2d 12hrs)
only downside is that it takes a slight delay in switching between 2G and 3G (bad if you're in a rush) and when at night you can turn on sleep but won't get calls (bad if there is an emergency)
i have a question though, how do you get rid of thinkfree? i tried going into applications and then clicking on 'all' but everything is greyed out and i can't click uninstall.
any suggestions?

I guess power saver has its pro and con like every other app.
To remove think free, I downloaded titanium free.
Launch it, then at the top click on back up and restore, then scroll down to think free. Click on it, then clear data, then click uninstall.
Job done
If you wish to use it in the future, download it from the market.

Tks for the tips...
May I add one?
At night, when going to bed, just turn cell radio off or put device on flight mode (unless you are expecting a night call)..
You will get even more juice

O yeh, Also install Startup Manager and disable all them useless samsung startup processes like SNS , email (if you don't use built in email and use 3rd party like K-9) and remote wipes.What I noticed is that If i disabled something major at next boot the system re-enables the service so Its kind of safe (My experience anyways)

Thanks for the tips and contributions..... Beneficial to all.

i think removing google talk is not a very good idea.
from what i gather google talk is the main-"google-account-login" that keeps your phone connected to the market. e.g. google talk not logged in = no market.

Steps:
Go to Profile, then State and select “Power“. Choose “Battery Level” and set the desired range (let’s say from 0-20).
Create new Task and tap the “+” icon. Select “Net” and turn Bluetooth off, auto sync off, Wi-Fi off and Mobile data off (if its available on your device).
Dim Brightness at specific times
Steps:
Create new profile. Go to “Time” and select the time range in which you want to lower (or increase) the brightness.
Create a new task and tap the “+” icon. Go to “Display” and then “Display Brightness“. Select your preferred value.
Night mode or Quiet time
Steps:
Create a new profile and select time. Choose the desired time range (for example, from 00:00 – 06:30).
Create a new task and tap the “+” icon.
Go to “Audio” then set Silent mode ON or vibrate.
Go to “Net” and turn auto sync OFF and Wi-Fi OFF.

It's a small task but very long to explain. If possible could you send me your email id. I will email you the procedure with some screenshots

I an looking to use tasker or automatic to create the following rule, incoming call=turn on BT, connect to headset, answer call; end call, turn off BT after 30 seconds. Is this wishful thinking or can it b done with one of these apps. The BT wakelock is killing me. If it matters I'm running Pure Nexus 12/19 with latest ElementalX kernel. Thanks in advance.

Honestly, by the time the call is received, bluetooth turned on, made a connection to your headset, and answer the call it would probably just go to voice mail. It's doable for sure but probably wouldn't help out any.
As for battery saving, here's my addition,
Quiet Time -> toggle all sounds off and set brightness to low @ 2130 until the next morning (I could probably turn off data as well)
Sync modes -> Toggle auto sync to off > enable every 30 minutes for 5 minutes > Sync> turn off sync

Thanks. I actually got it to work with Automagic app. BT turns on with incoming call or when I make a call, then turns BT off after I hang up.

My favorite battery saving tip for AMOLED device (provided you have a kernel with KCAL enabled) mimics Samsung's Ultra Power Saving mode by turning your device grayscale.
Just run this shell command to turn it grayscale:
Code:
echo "0" > /sys/devices/platform/kcal_ctrl.0/kcal_enable
echo "255 255 255" > /sys/devices/platform/kcal_ctrl.0/kcal
echo "255" > /sys/devices/platform/kcal_ctrl.0/kcal_cont
echo "0" > /sys/devices/platform/kcal_ctrl.0/kcal_hue
echo "35" > /sys/devices/platform/kcal_ctrl.0/kcal_min
echo "128" > /sys/devices/platform/kcal_ctrl.0/kcal_sat
echo "255" > /sys/devices/platform/kcal_ctrl.0/kcal_val
echo "1" > /sys/devices/platform/kcal_ctrl.0/kcal_enable
You can combine this with any context to make it run whenever you want.

Here's another battery saving tip - automatically set tasker to turn on airplane mode at say ... 1am and turn it of at ..6am. GSM modules are notorious for eating a noticeable amount of battery. There you go:
Tasker Auto Airplane Mode On/Off - http://forum.xda-developers.com/u/tasker-tips-tricks/tasker-auto-airplane-mode-off-t3316767

I can recommend an plugin for Tasker, name is Autoinput. It is very simple and awesome plugin that let you automate commands that in other cases needs root. You can for example toggle Power saving mode, Mobile data, NFC... whatever your want.
I use it daily for all different tasks since im not rooted (yet).

I wish any way that will increase my screen dim time(the time taken b4 screen goes to completely black) . So that I can save some amount of juice without affected my reading (hobby)
Any help would be highly appreciated.
TIA

I think that only works for Samsung devices, unfortunately.

I use following profiles/tasks for battery saving;
Auto-off Unpaired bluetooth (shuts off bluetooth after 2 min IF no BT device connected)
Autosync schedule Home (sync is off 20min, turns on for 3 min, then turns off. Repeat every 20 min)
Autosync schedule Work (sync is off 2 hours, turns on for 5 min, then turns off. Repeat every 2 hour)
Switch to 2G/3G when Wifi connected (no wifi = 4G/LTE)
NFC turns OFF if not connected to my home-Wifi (NFC battery drain is negligible though..)
Turn ON high accuracy GPS when opening Google Maps (back to balanced/power saving when Maps is closed)
Nightmode = Samsung power saving mode, Wifi OFF, Mobile data OFF, Sync OFF (since not Wifi connected). All these modes activated through tap of NFC tag (about 2% battery is drained on 8-9 hours)

Is auto sync for Google?

[Android 4.1+] Data Sharing - Tethering

Hi, my name is Jorge Ruesga, and I frecuently contribute with open source code like CMFileManager, PhotoPhase and other libraries, as well as contribute to the CyanogenMod project. This time, with the help of my colleague Roberto Grande, we developed an app to control and monitorize the data consumption of the tethering interfaces in Android, so you never will be have a surprise when using your device to share your Mobile data with other devices. The app is a free (and ads free) downloadable app in the Google Play Store with In-App purchase to unlock some cool features.
ABOUT
Data Sharing is a WiFi hotspot and tethering management and control app. No more surprises while sharing your mobile data and exhausting it without realizing about it. Share knowing your mobile data consumption and avoid spent more than you want by define your desired limits.
FEATURES
The app have a set of cool features for free.
* Start/stop the shared data service for WiFi hotspot and Bluetooth tethering interfaces.
* Manage the time and data usage for WiFi hotspot and Bluetooth and USB tethering interfaces.
* Set the data usage and time limits by session, day and monthly cycle.
* Show connected devices or those have been connected ever, and allow to modified its displayed name and hide them from the list.
* Check activity by device.
* Daily data usage chart, with detailed information about every tethering event and per-hour stats.
* A widget to control all the tethering interfaces.

The In-App purchase will unlock the next set of features.
* Automatically stop shared data connection when one or both of the configurable limits were exceeded.
* Notify when one or both of the fixed limits are exceeded.
* Automatically stop shared data connection after a configurable inactivity time.

LINKS
The app is downloadable from the Play Store at https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.awake.datasharing.
To celebrate that Data Sharing was published in the Play Store, we gave away 50 promotional codes that you can grab from here (but you should be fast as hell to get yours ).
HELP
This app doesn't required root access, but it takes advantage of rooted devices to directly control the usb interface, not allowed without elevated privileges. In any other case it fallbacks to display you the system tethering settings activity.
We started this thread to provide you a way to report bugs, request features, obtain help and discuss about the app, so we are willing to hear your thoughts about the app.

Arg, looks all the code have been used
Thanks anyway

Seems that the our initial 50 promo codes are now exhausted. Here are few more free promo codes

As I said via PM the codes seem invalid
But well I tried the free version which is btw very nice as it is and it works like a charm.
Would it be possible by long pressing the on/off button to shut down tethering for all type of connections ? Right now you have to shut them down individually (tbh, i only connect via wifi, but who knows).
Also i saw a Dark Mode so i was very pleased, ... just to see that the dark mode is only for the widget . Do you plan to add also a dark mode for the app itself ?
Thanks again

@Namoi, all seems fine with that codes. I just finish to redeem F616HCZ0PUUVWBMUA6J79JW code into the app, and all the pro funtionality was activated succesfully. Not sure what was wrong with your attempts of redeem the promo codes
Your proposal are a really good ones (long press and black theme). We'll really considere it for the next release. Thx so much for your comment.

Well, it must be perhaps my old "dark" modded playstore app ...
Another idea I had after a some tests (and because my tethering device went to sleep) , but not sure if this one would be easy or at least without root : when the providing device is set to disconnect wifi when screen is off (and when going to sleep) the tethering is broken. So would it be possible to break the rule when tethering is enable (I don't know if the two are bound : wifi and wifi tethering), but it would be great to save battery on the providing device.
Thanks again
PS: LOL it was : i went to my Galaxy Tab and go direct to redeem and entred the code : it says my device was incompatible, well OK , but it updated my GS2 to PRO.
Thanks

A really interesting idea. I need to check the aosp code to see if it could be done for a non-system app (or even via root access).

It would really be great I think as it is kind of problematic mostly on old device with weak battery. I am sure it would be possible using tasker but well not really straightforward (I also remember a guy here who designed an app to control wifi behavior - root was mandatory (if i remember well) -, will try to dig my subscription) ... and if a black theme is conceivable ? please, ... pretty please
Thanks again

the dark theme does not work ! :crying:

It is for widget only, but I didn't try it so maybe it doesn't work. If you mean the app...well I cried for it already

We are trying to implement all this suggestions, as well to fix some bug fixes for the next release, but we need some time (a week or two) before we can release the next version.

Vesion 1.2.1 is rolling out in this moment (so it will be available in a few hours), with new funtionalities and a various bug and stability fixes. This is the full changelog:
- NEW: Add tap stats wheel view to go to activity stats
- NEW: Added button to stop all active interfaces at once
- NEW: Added an option to bypass current Wi-Fi sleep policy
- NEW: Added an option to determine the stop behaviour for day and cycle periods
- NEW: Advise users when its devices require Wi-Fi AP provisioning
- NEW: Dark theme for app
- NEW: Allow widget to be resized horizontally
- Other bug fixes and improvements
Enjoy it and share with us your thoughts, feature request and bugs.

@Namoi @pendor24 this is how it looks the dark theme. Hope it's enough dark for you guys. We want to respect a bit of the material design and colors of our original design

hellos
super thank you for this great job :bien:

Thanks,
Didn't had time to test the new features but it seem perfect
It is just the "dark theme" which IMHO should be, well, a little more dark : dark background (charcoal) and light text. I don't think it would clash with Material Guidelines, mostly with incoming N and the return of the black theme, but it is you to decide of course.
Will report ASAP about the wifi overriding policies.
Thanks again
