Hi everyone,
I'm having a strange problem with my auto sync for my accounts: it seems to turn off randomly. I sometimes use the power saving mode, but when I check it, it does not, at least immediately, turn off auto sync. It's possible that it turns off auto sync if the batty gets low, but maybe it doesn't turn it back on? I also have sleep mode (I.e. "turn off data connections during long periods of activity") checked. It's very frustrating because I never know if its on or off without checking settings. So I end up missing emails which is kind of annoying.
bumping this up. Thought this may just be the result of the "power saver" feature, but it still happened when I turned my phone off overnight. Woke up, powered phone on, and auto sync was off
I was just wondering that is the difference between the two. The description seems to be the same in both but they are located in 2 difference places. Sleep Mode under Power in settings and Data Connection under Power Saver. If both are turned on is there any conflict or whatnot?

The power saver options turns off your data connection as soon as the screen is off then reconnects it when the screen is on. The one under power waits until your phone has been inactive for a while (6+ hours in my experience) and turns then turns the connection off. They won't conflict because enabling the one under power saver will naturally make the other one redundant.

Oh great! Thanks for the explanation. Okay so let's say power saver turns off your data when your screen is off, what happens to messaging services like what's app, viber and Facebook chat? I won't be notified of any of these when the screen is turned off on power saver mode?

Hi guys, I have just jumped over from samsung to HTC
Imported my Tasker settings over as well.
One of my "tasks" is not working properly.
I have one task that Turns off Data+Wifi from 2300 to 0800. Without Exit task.
However, with HTC sleep mode, i check data consumption over night, it seems that data is still being turned on once a while at night.
Is there a conflict between taskeer and sleep mode?
Dear all HTC One users,
I know there are tons of battery saver apps on Google Play and each one of them sounds to be greater or better than the rest however I have tried a few and I don't think there is any single one of them which hardly does anything or makes a difference as compared to not having one but still I would like to know which ones are worth giving a try and possibly one that's also worth keeping in the device, an app that doesn't drain battery either.
Please post your suggestions including the name of the apps and also give your reasoning as to why you prefer that app and what about it you like.

There are many options to save some power. I'm saving maybe 15% battery on a typical day of use when using this setup:
Amplify (Xposed framework + root required) to block (or change the refresh rates) of some wakelocks
ElementalX kernel to undervolt the CPUs
Tasker + Secure Settings + Autosync to make a power saver profile
e.g:
When screen is turned off = turn off wifi, mobile data, underclock the cpus, turn off bluetooth (only if not connected to a device). Turn on mobile data or wifi once every 30 mins for 1 min and launch Autosync to sync the phone (facebook, mails etc)

Thanks for your reply,
However I only want suggestions based on unrooted device.
Thanks.

I remember when I had my HTC One unrooted, the battery life was horrible no matter what apps I used, n that was on KK, I can only imagine on LP. Take it from me I tried everything there is no app that will make a very big or substantial difference in battery on this phone if you are not rooted. Once u r rooted use amplify elementalx kernel greenify and power nap... Now I get almost triple the amount of battery I could ever get

Would love a tutorial on "Tasker + Secure Settings + Autosync" setup you have!

Create a new profile in tasker based on screen state --> off
add a new task for that profile.
now create these actions in the profile:
wifi off
mobile data off
HTC energy saver on (requires secure settings)
set core 0-1-2-3 to your desired governor and max frequency (requires a custom kernel) (don't be to aggressive on the underclock or your phone will lag when turned back on)
wait 30 min
turn wifi/data on
launch autosync (plugin ---> autosync) ( to update all your account at once)
wait 1 minute
go back to step 1
So your phone will save battery when not used. wifi will be active for only 2 minutes per hours and your phone will be synced every 30 min. You can edit the wait time as you need.
Will try to upload my tasker profile soon so you can edit it for your needs.
Hey Alray can you please upload your Tasker profile? I'm very much interested to see how you have configured this Tasker + Secure Settings + Autosync setup.
I know you tried explaining but some things weren't clear, to be honest I'd be lying if I said "some things" because although I tried experimenting on my own I still doubt that I would have gotten things working since I'm new to Tasker and its an app which takes a while to get used to.
Could you upload your profile with screenshots if possible? Thanks.

Just wondering if I can get that taker profile?
When I lock the screen, I feel like my S10 enters a heavy sleep mode. I don't receive emails (through Gmail app) on time, Spotify keeps pausing, and group chat messages (those on wifi) are delayed. I have ensured that none of such time sensitive applications are put to sleep. And wifi isn't set to disconnect. Also Google services can't even be modified in terms of its services running!
Does anyone else experience something similar/know what's going on?
***SOLVED***
With adaptive power mode on, your phone automatically switches to a more power saving mode when phone's not in use. Mine was switching to medium-power-saving-mode which had "background network activity" switched to off. I just modified each power mode setting and now I can have the adaptive power mode on and have background activity!
