it looks nice indeed but sadly this causes the screen to be always on after recieving a message and with our phone having a screen on time of max 5.5 hours you dont really want this kind of behaviour.
say you get a message late at night before your going to bed and you just charged your phone your gonna wake up to a dead phone as overnight the battery will be drained empty.

The app have battery saving option. We can set the time for it to be off.
The worst is that I activate but, nothing happend... Once that I have a lot of
stuff frozen/uninstalled, I though the problem might be because of that.
That's why I ask if someone else can try it and report if it works, to see if
the issue is from the app or from my settings.

In applications we need to activate "messages", "Facebook", or other...
I miss that part...

I dont understand..What do you mean activate and where exactly? I dont have facebook..

Open Knock²+ app, go to the tab "APPLICATIONS", you'll see several apps and in front of the app icon you need to activate.
If you don't have Facebook it won't appear there, only apps that you have installed, and messages you have

All of my app are activated. I tryed it out by sending an e-mail but it doesnt work..:banghead:
Edit:all of my apps where deactivated! I am an idiot!
It works great!
Is the battery drain significant?

I don't notice a big drain but, also didn't had a lot of "messages".
During the night (or other period) you select it to be OFF.
Explore the settings :good:

Yes i saw it has a lot of options. It can be off during the night,its off in your pocket and you can set the after what period it turns off!:good: Great app!

for me, the only problem is that the flash isn't used, even when i set it to double or single. it simply doesnt fire up ^^

looks nice, but how about battery?

Depends on the user, settings and of course if you receive 20 or 200 messages a day don't drain more than a normal app.

For me it use 15-20% overnight, when sleep mode is on. And from 37 to 15% in 6 hours is too much, turned off..
Sent from my LG-P880

I just installed it yesterday, so far work OK. During the night I use "Sleep mode" and battery drain as usually, but I will check today how it's work during day time.

Really like the setup of the app and giving it also a try. Only thing that have noticed is tht phonecalls are shown only when another notification has come up. Will see if theres a way to controll it fro msettings.
Battery is still normal for me, lets see what longer usage period is showing.

the same for me ,it only start working when sms notification comes,after that calls notification works fine,led down t work ,and poked mode down t work ,it down t give a dam is the phone in your pocked or not ,im on stock JB ,rooted ,BL unlocked .

[APP] LG O2X Touch LED Notifications

I've been using Martin Börjesson's LED Notifications app for a while and you can now find it on the market!
"LG O2X Touch LED Notifications"
By Martin Börjesson
I found it's light on battery. And you can simply disable the notification part if you just want to recall the setting of touch LED brightness after reboot. It's free

do i need to set any monitor app if i want it notice the miss call? if so, which?
Can't make it work with DocSlim
I tested all settings, i changed parameters in Accessibility, nothing happens...
Have you tried a reboot (though mine worked fine without on cm. Weird..)
Very nice, works on the G2x as well, with cm7
it works on su660 (korean version of o2X) too. thanks for good information.
Yep !
I've been using it since version 0.2 and it works really good. I just installed last version from market.
To emprize : no you don't need any app monitor for missed call. It's one of the 3 basics (Gmail, SMS/MMS, Missed call). Look into "notification" if "Missed call" is checked (should be by default).

I haven't noticed any as of yet but the way the program is set-up, it could be a battery guzzler. This app loops check for notifications as opposed to being built into the framework

Thanks for the reply. I think I'll just try it myself!
If anyone of you notices a serious battery drain I'd appreciate a post
anybody know what's the accelerometer tolerance for? i don't quite get it.
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
problems is that as soon as you have a notification, your phone will not go to sleep. And then will drain battery until you check your phone
Yea that's what I mean but you didn't notice a serious drain because of that?
Just to be sure, the screen remains off and the buttons glow it is simply that the phone doesn't go into "sleep" mode (what somehow makes sense)?!
Did some testing
And my sleeping phone (no notification) consume 2-3% an hour
With the notification glowing (meaning no sleep) for an hour, I loose 10%
The phone does sleep, the app has zero wakelock according to spare parts.
well, the leds are still blinking, from what I know (I still may be wrong there's no LG routine for the blinking. It does mean it's done by the "LG O2X Touch LED Notifications" so no sleep...
well this is what I'm guessing, since we do not have the source code
Just cos an app does something doesn't mean it has to keep the phone awake to do it

Xperia TL "Android System" using tons of the battery.

So ever since the JB update, I've noticed that the Android System is using up a good chunk of the battery. The phone seems to be "waking up" constantly. Anyone else have this problem?
Let it sink for a week or so then it normally should go down.
Sent from my LT30p, 4.1.2 stock, DooMKernel v7,root access, unlocked bootloader.
Alrighty then. Thanks for the advice
I have had JB installed for almost 3 months now and it still sleeps very bad. Android system is around 11% in the android battery stats, i guess that's normal, but i just cant figure out whats waking up my device so often. I was so desperate to get it to sleep properly that i disabled auto sync, restricted background data for most apps and i disabled a lot of 'm. that didn't work. The highest wakelock in bbs is audioOut_2 but there's no real answer on whats causing this problem (for some people it's viber but i'm not using that) does any of you have the same problem? My drain on 3G is more than 3%/hour, that's way more than my xperia arc used to have.

I've been reading around forums and stuff. Trying to gather any information I can. From what I've read, it's just a bug in the Jelly Bean software. But of course, it could also be an app that is causing the wake ups.
In sound settings disable the last 4 options. Touch sounds and vibrate on touch and screen lock sound.
That will most likely fix your problem.
Please keep us updated.
Cheers!

Battery Saving with Deep Sleep Battery Saver

So, I know the whole discussion around task-killers and Android - let's try and avoid that here.
I rediscovered this app last week, I had an old version but it updated from Playstore. I stopped using task killers a long time ago, but I'd forgotten that the approach Deep Sleep Battery Saver takes is slightly different: it makes sure that the phone is REALLY asleep when the screen is off.
Now people have said that it's wake locks clash with Android own.
I went ahead and tried it on the highest setting - slumber - and it's fantastic in both my P7 & P6, and also on my Lg2.
The only thing I have to remember is that when I'm downloading files that take longer than say, 2mins, I have to change my screen-on time to accommodate, otherwise it will stop the download as soon the screen goes off.
I found this is a small thing to remember given the battery savings.
I mean the difference is sooo large I can't tell you.
I put it down to this - we all have a variety of apps on our phones and we really don't know what keeps running in the background.
The Huawei Music app for example, is notorious, as is the Camera ago on the Lg2.
Deep Sleep Battery Saver shuts everything down, period. And it works. I'm absolutely stunned by how much later into the night I can use my phones with a single charge in the morning.
It's a little like GREENIFY but as I don't root my phones anymore, this was a great alternative.
Actually even better is that I don't have to go through my entire list of apps picking and choosing.
I just select SLUMBERER.
The results have been so fantastic on my P6 & P7, that I had to share.
The Lg2 is great with battery WHATEVER you through at it.
The P6 & P7 are gorgeous phones - with anemic batteries...it's always been the case.
With this app, I have discovered a while new sense of respect and use for my P6&P7.
Of course, once your actually using the phone, the drain is as fast as always, it's just that the savings you make in between are phenomenal.
Just saying.
DS Battery Saver can be found FREE on playstore.

P.S. Oh! Just remember to turn off 'enable logging' in settings-general, leave the 'show persistent notifications' ticked in notifications& language, and turn off ALL the 'battery notifications' in notification& language.
Those are the things responsible for wake-locks.
To save battery it works quite well indeed and I thank you for that. The only tiny issue is that I don't receive the calls anymore, only a text that says that somebody tried to reach me. No ring, no move, just missing calls. I could also turn off my phone to save battery...

I receive ALL my phone calls, ALL my texts, as they are, when they come in, as usual, asap, otherwise what's the point.
My email, Facebook, whatsapp etc comes in soon as I turn on my screen.
The App doesn't touch your ability to make OR receive calls EVER. Something else is going on with you.

This app is extremely useless once you install an anti-theft program.
When you install this program, programs like Cerberus, Kaspersky Internet Security anti-theft function or Lookout won't work as they should when you lose your phone (and the screen is off).

Yes.
If you're using an always on, anti-theft application, you're not really worried about conserving battery.
This app works if you need to get more life out of your charge.
Alot more.
That's how it works.

No it doesn't actually! The alarm clock over rides everything short of actually switching your phone off... And in some ANDROIDS even this isn't enough.

Wifi off when sleeping?

Did they remove the option to turn off WiFi when the phone sleeps? Can't find it in WiFi advanced settings.
Yup, i feel like it turns it off and causes issues with taskter, etc. could also just be tasker.

Huh? I think we were talking about the opposite thing. WiFi stays ON when sleeping now. Before it could be set to turn off when screen was off thus your apps wouldn't get updated until your phone woke up.

Yeah I know this wasn't the point of the thread, but this is exactly what happens to me. If my WiFi is on and I leave the phone off for a while I get no push notifications for anything, I only noticed one morning when I'd left WiFi on and woke up, when I turned it off and went back to mobile data, all my notifications came. It's not much of an issue for me as I don't use WiFi really, I get 20gb data a month so my mobile data is on 24/7 and get no problems with that.

a lot of this has to do with the battery conservation features of Oreo. every oreo phone i've had has had this issue unless it was a custom ROM built over a 7.1 kernel

Yes I agree, I've had constant problems with notifications for a year or more now, stock and custom ROMs, this is actually the first time I've not had a problem with them, except on WiFi like I mentioned. Everything comes through straight away on mobile data, even when the phone's been asleep for several hours.

P20 Pro killing whatsapp...

Hi guys, my phone apparently kills whatsapp, no matter what I do. I added it to exceptions everywhere: battery optimization, application start to manually, everything. Still my phone kills whatsapp and I dont get any notifications until I start the application. Its like is goes in a deep sleep or smth. My Mate 20 pro did not do that.
Any idea? Thanks a lot
