Hi all.
Does anyone know of a way to turn on the Power Saver with 1 click from a shortcut on one of the home screens?
It's in the extended quick settings of most custom roms, so I know a 1-click solution must be possible, but couldn't find anything obvious on how to do it. I'd just like it as shortcut on my home screen (& also as a result be able to run it from tasker!)
Any ideas?
Col.
Bump...
Still can't find a way to do this.
As I said above, i'm sure there must be a way to do it, otherwise how could custom rom's extended quick settings (ViperOne rom is a prime example) activate it with one click
Any ideas anyone?
Maybe there's a shell command that would work?
With 4.2.2 you can activate it only in settings or with the viper in the EQS.
But also in other rom if you will change the EQS number
Two fingers swipe from notification bar and 1 click-Power saver on/off !

Yes, I am currently running the ViperOne rom & that's what made me think it could be possible. On ViperOne's EQS, you have one click to turn on the Power Saver. It doesn't open the power manager app and "click" the button to turn on the power saver, so logically there is some code in the Viper EQS that can turn on the power saver directly. I wanted to know if that could be done in a separate app, or what the direct command is (shell command?). With an app or shell command, I could turn on the power saver from a Tasker profile.

Didn't know about the 2 finger swipe though... Useful, but again isn't quite what I want. Thanks though.

I don't know if it still works.. I haven't used it in years, but have you tried setting up a shortcut via the AnyCut app or other similar applications?
EDIT: Appears AnyCut is gone. QuickShortcutMaker from the Play store is another being recommended according to my googlefu.

Tried that, there is a way to get a shortcut direct to the Power Settings app, but not to turn on the Saver directly. Lots of other direct shortcuts though which may be useful in future!
Still searching...
Anyone got any other ideas or know of a developer to pm?

Tasker will do it:
Create a task called Power Saver (or whatever you want) and select 'Load App'.
Check the 'Show All' box in the app list, and Power Saver Settings becomes visible.
Should have a home screen shortcut to toggle the power saver mode.

That's what i'm doing at the moment, but it only opens the power saver settings, i still have to "click" the button to turn the power save on.
I can't find a power saver widget on my rom (ViperOne)...should there be one?

I see. Well you could try Power Toggles app. I used it for a while and it is very good. It should allow you to use a widget to toggle the power saver mode.

Yes, and it works!
Credit to @j to the 4n
As I said in the ViperOne thread, the precise shell command that worked on my phone was...
sqlite3 /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db "update 'system' set value='1' where name='user_powersaver_enable';"
value='0' works for disable as well
and my recent comment....
colthekid said:
After some testing on this last night I can confirm what @j to the 4n said, it is turning the power saver on (you can see the screen dim after 20-30 seconds), but it's not immediately updating the quicksettings icon, although again, it does update eventually (especially after a screen off/on). The status bar notification also doesn't appear. However if, as said above, you open the power settings, the notification appears and it also updates the quicksettings icon.

Read somewhere that the power consumption can be adjusted to separate apps, iex, i just want Facebook to notify me about new messages, notif etc, not the rest of the apps to save power.
Cant find that menu, anyone?
How about the notification signs on each app icon (digits) like on iphone, any good plugin for that?
Thanks

Settings > Power Managment > Activate Stamina mode by sliding the slider. After that tap on Stamina mode to select the apps you want to keep running.

Ah, why cant they hide menus even better so its even harder to find
Thanks :cyclops:
I wouldn't call settings>power management hard to find
Its obvious that most system settings will be in settings
And power management being a sub menu isn't exactly hidden

I meant the settings under the Stamina button, its not very obvious theres another menu hidden on the side of a slider button, hence why i couldnt find it in the first place... but hey, im used to logical intuitive structure on iphones, so i guess im spoiled
In my pull down the power saver shortcut is always there and i can not remove it by swiping or changing it to on and then off etc is everyone else seing this as well?

not the only one. Check and see if you can disable it by going in to settings -> apps -> All -> Power. I can't get rid of it sadly. :/
The only way to permanently remove it now is by rooting.
To temporarily remove it, you can ford close the "Power" app from the App info screen.
What i done was hold it down then stop app it's now gone but can use it in settings
Settings, apps, all, power, turn off notifications, yes

This doesnt work on non rooted devices. The "show notifications" option is greyed out and cannot be unchecked. At least thats how it is on my device running 1.28.401.7.

If you are rooted, you need to either flash a ROM that has that option enabled, or install a mod (like this) to enable it.

For non-rooted (stock) phones, you can't remove it. You can bypass it by "Force closing" the Power app. But it will come back after a reboot or if your battery goes down to 14% & Power Saver turns on.
As for disabling it, I didn't try, but would expect that you will loose the "Power Saver" function & the options under Settings>Power. ("Power" will be completely gone).
the best way to disable the notification while keeping the power saving app running is to disable the notification receiver activity in the power app.
must have root access
1. install and open an app 'system tuner'
2. click system and wait until all of the apps are there
3. scroll down to 'Power'
4. tap power and then tap details
5. scroll down to "receivers"
6. untick "powersaver.PowerSaverNotificationReceiver"
7. reboot
Just got the 4.2.2 update today which installed fine.. sites all over the internet claim this should remove the annoying Power Saver notification.
Unfortunately this hasn't happened for me, I can only remove the notification by turning the service off or using the force stop option in App info.
The 'show notifications' checkbox is greyed out in App info.
Can anyone shed any light on this, I want the Power Saver mode on - just without the permanent notification!!
Thanks,
Mark

There is an app in the Play store :JMZ Power Saver Disable or something close to that that does exactly what you want.

Yeah i've heard of that thanks - my One isn't rooted though. Just seems like everyone is reporting the update fixes it but it hasn't for me amd I can't work out why!!
It's removed only when the power saver is off.
Photosphere/Power saver notification/Developer options
I've seen that the Photosphere application/feature, Power saver notification and the Developer options button is removed from settings...............these seem to be missed somehow

1. When airplane mode is turned on or off, a popup is presented which assumes we're idiots and tells us what airplane mode does. Any way to disable this? I use airplane mode a lot.
2. On CM11 on my GS2, you can toggle location between power saving and high accuracy using the notification panel button. Any way to modify the TW button to do this?
3. Also on CM11, when you receive a text, you can swipe the status bar down and then swipe the text notification down to be presented with the options of call, reply, or mark read. Reply will give you a pop up allowing you to respond without going to the full messaging app. I thought this was a 4.4 feature, but apparently not.

Nope, swiping left or right just removes the notification.

Tried the apk edit for airplane mode, but I guess I'm not experienced enough in smali editing. Just got a FC loop.

Hello I have lots of questions
1) is there a way to make active display or tap to wake up phone?
2) on my previous phone if I clicked on the volume key button the phone would turn on?- can I do it on here?
3) there are many more apps like contextual services and lots of other Motorola apps. Which are safe to disable?
4) is there a way to block OTA updates?
5) when you swipe down using two fingers you get the notification pull menus. But when I click the wifi button it opens the settings app and goes to wifi. Can't I edit it so it goes DIRECTLYY to. Toggle wifi?
6) pin on lock screen - on my old phones when I input my pin it unlockes. This is so stupid and takes more longer after inputtingmy pin. I then have to click enter? How do I automate that
1) You can use AcDisplay. You can't tap to wake the phone, a custom kernel would be required for that.
2) Not by default.
3) I leave Assist, Alert, Audio effects, Help and Migrate disabled. I don't know about the rest, but those are safe.
4) Just don't install them. I don't know if you can disable the alerts though.
5) Hold the wifi button . Works with other settings as well, try it out.
6) Well, you could try using an app that replaces your lockscreen which has this feature, such as the Home Screen Lock of Smart App Lock. By default you can't though.
Hope I helped.

I assume you are using Lollipop. The wifi-icon and the SSID are two seperate buttons. Tapping the icon switches wifi on/off. Tap on the SSID and it will take you to settings
I've found that long-pressing the wifi button will toggle it on and off.
