What is more beneficial to the battery and which one will overright the other one?
Anyone?

Don't same-day bump.
Sleep mode will override your mobile data setting, but not in a manner that you will ever be able to see with your own eyes (apart from delayed syncing). Otherwise, sleep mode would do absolutely nothing (as if data were on, it wouldn't override, and if data were off, there would be nothing to override).

By "data connection" I mean the power saver setting with cpu,vibration etc...

...right, because HTC's built in Power Saver = "data connection."
"Power Saver" will, surprise, save more power than sleeping your mobile data connection because it hits additional power draws such as screen brightness and CPU clockspeed. Neither will override the other, strictly speaking.

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?

I have a strange problem. I set the 'Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" to "Only when plugged in" but I see that Wi-Fi stays always on, also during sleep. In addition I noticed that the largest battery consumer is Android OS. Any ideas what's wrong?

Under Wifi Advanced Settings, you probably have the option for "Scanning always available" enabled. This keeps wifi available for location services, and makes it look like it's always on to the power monitor.
No. It is disabled

Your battery usage doesn't look off. Android OS is almost always the biggest battery consumer on mine unless I'm using the phone heavily. wifi is typically 3-4.
I easily get through a day on a single charge. Usually I've got between 20-40% left at night depending on usage.
As for wifi I don't know. Perhaps there is another app keeping it on. I would try turning all location services off and see if that changes anything.
I'm curious why you'd want wifi off. generally it will default to the mobile signal which will use a lot more power. only reason to turn wifi off is if you don't have access to it.
Make a case for and against. Go.

Can you feel the difference?
If not, then keep it on.
I keep it always on with the condition that *activate* it only after battery level goes below 20%.
Otherwise what's the point of owning a smart phone that can do all these wonderful things if you keep stamina mode on (which basically curtails all those features and background tasks).
So, is that the main purpose of Stamina mode? To keep background tasks at bay and stop them from using CPU, data and battery life?
If so, then I'll keep Stamina mode on all of the time since there are plenty of people out there looking for apps that do exactly this.

The stamina mode stops most of the background services,turns data and Wi-Fi and sync services off and also reduces the Max CPU Frequency to save battery
But it can be activated only after your battery reaches 20%-15%
As your device is quad core it will put two or more CPU's offline and this may reduce performance
But it's obvious that if one turns stamina mode on it means he needs battery to last so one will not play games or do such heavy activity and that's the reason it can be activated only after 20%
If you want to stop background services then use GREENIFY

Hi Prasad
What makes you say this?
I appear to be able to turn on "stamina mode" at any point in time. There is no activation threshold that I can see. Simply on/off toggle. Estimated battery time immediately increases with activation too (implying that's it's active straight away).
I'm using UK stock build 23.0.A.2.105
There's a separate "low-battery mode", which is triggered "...when the battery is below a preset level"
The options I have under settings / power management are:
"stamina mode"
"ultra stamina mode"
"low-battery mode"
"location-based Wi-Fi"
Queue background data"
"App power consumption"
"battery usage"
Sorry btw if I'm missing something obvious here. Your signature would imply that you know your business!
Regards,
Gary

np dude.
Sounds like they've expanded the stamina options on the latest handsets, as compared to the can and piece of string you use

everytime when i charge my the phone, my wifi is turned off. I have to turn it back on, but it works fine. just wondering if there's a setting to leave it on.
Yeah it's in the advanced wifi settings. This is a setting that has been around on Android for a while.
check wifi control history, maybe there is some app that switches it off? Works fine on mine, are you using power saving mode?

i already checked the wifi always on in advanced wifi settings. there are no apps listed in wifi control history. and no on power saving mode.
any other suggestions? im pretty sure it's a setting related problem, but all the setting mentioned I checked. the always wifi is on, nothing in wifi control history
Comrades, do you suggest having this option turned on? I think this option should be enabled if the phone has to connect automatically to network under wifi option...Does leaving wifi scanning on drain battery? Or has this improved a lot from Android 6.0 (which created havoc on the battery when this was turned on) such that the impact on the battery is very negligible? comments pls...
It will still have an impact on your battery; nowhere near what it was back then. There is an option in the Developer Options to limit how often it does the wifi scanning to help offset.
