Glad you like it. However, Screen filter just tints the screen, it won't save you battery. I use it in the movies. More power management is coming, I have something up my sleeve

Go to the main AFH download page, click the link, wait the 5-10 seconds, and it will generate other mirrors on the right side of the page for you to download from. There is also an alternate download link that's hosted on goo.im

I want to give thanks to -viperboy- first and foremost for always putting out a quality ROM in a timely fashion. I've been using your ROM's since I had my Evo 4g Lte and loved your work so naturally I came back :good:. I just had a quick question regarding kernels, the stock one from what I've noticed battery wise its actually pretty good but I'm wondering if anyone has experienced any other kernels that are noticeably better battery wise?

I come from the line of thinking that if my screen is darker then it's probably not using as much power, granted that difference may be minimal.
Is there anyway we can modify the layout of the pull-down device settings like the wifi tether icon doesn't seem to work on the Sprint version unless you have a specific data plan so I'd like to either remove it or swap it out with the application that I run for tether

Well, your line of thinking is incorrect. Imagine your phone is on full brightness and you put a piece of tint on the front of the screen. It will appear to be darker right? But in reality, it's just not projecting the light because you have a filter over it. Screen filter is exactly the same thing. There is no battery savings to be had with it.
Toggles will be edited for next release to fix/remove those that don't work or are useless. A

My battery life is amazing also.
I have always disabled the wrist turn-on action in the past as it absolutely DESTROYED my battery life (the damn thing would go dead in like 5 hours). I hated to turn it off however because it is just so darn handy and I don't want to wear out the tiny hardware button.
With Null 20/21 I have been experimenting with different combinations for battery life. I could care less about bragging that my battery lasts 4 days etc. with all the features turned off, but I do need it to make it through a 12 hour work day before it dies.
For the last two days, I have left the motion on and the only thing I have done to increase life is leave the top clock speed set to 1200 with both cores enabled (on demand governor) and it has made it through both days with still a little spark left.
This was with blu-tooth tethering connected all day also with gmail/weather syncing (even though I could certainly live without that).

Probably your problem isn't the screen if android OS is eating your battery

Android os gets bigger the more services you have enabled. Cut out some services you don't need running all the time and it will lower. Guaranteed.

Can you list an app that would make the screen black and another color or something that is usable to reduce battery life? If it can be done without root that would be very helpful :fingers-crossed:

My android os usage was really high when I was stock then I unlocked the bootloader and without changing the ROM or kernel and now its a non issue usually staying at around 7-10%
Maybe that means a factory reset would help for that? Help this helps and sorry if its off topic

I've actually looked in to this a little. The ideal scenario would be to run everything in "greenscale" as green takes the least power on amoled displays, I believe.
I was sad when I learned that the "Greenify" app wasn't what I wanted it to be...lol

I use an app called "Color Wallpaper" to set a dark or black wallpaper color which helps save battery on the OLED screen.

I set my background to solid black. I just wish an app could change the color scale. I had a ROM one time that allowed it to all be changed to red, blue, or green. It would only use those colors. I think it was a ROM for an Evo 4G that was baked into it, but I don't remember.

After hunting around some I disabled touchless control and it made a huge difference. It was eating all sorts of power and creating lots of wakelocks in the background. I still barely can make it through a day but at least it isn't dead by lunch. I may try a factory reset once the at&t 4.4.2 is out for download.

Found an app that can change everything to grayscale (or green, red, blue, salmon)! It's called CF.lumen

New Features of Android Lollipop 5.x

What the title says. Write your findings and differences.
OP will be updated thanks to your contributions and suggestions. Special thanks to all contributors.
This will help in an easy way to locate what has changed for our beloved Note's.
1)-I find fingerprint sensor much more accurate.
2)-I personally find that phone gets a little warm while charging (N910C)
3)-Phone app seems faster but had 2 hangs to closing the line. Red button was not responding.
I had a clean install.
4)-You can now change colours in folders in the app drawer and homescreen.
5)-Now third party apps optimized for LP can write to ExtSDcard.
6)-a. Settings-security-trusted agents : enable smart lock
b. Smart lock now appears under settings-security.
7)-MISSING: RAW implementation is NON existent in N4. Samsung dropped the ball. Oops.
8*)-"Recent" apps remain after a reboot.
9-) Added battery drain. Internet hogging apps keep continually connecting.

[Request] Galaxy S7 Always on display?

So the Galaxy S7 has now been announced, and one of the new features is a clock which is always displayed on the screen. Obviously, this would be possible with our phone too as it has the same OLED display. Does anyone know of an app that does this, or could anyone make a simple one like it?
Source: http://www.theverge.com/2016/2/21/1...y-s7-edge-smartphone-announced-specs-mwc-2016

Yeah. It would be nice to have it on our GS 6.

It would be awesome to have. Meanwhile AcDisplay offers a similar (not quite the same) thing.
Sent from my SM-G920F

Try out this app DynamicNotifications. Available on PlayStore. Does work like S7. The only issue is it drains battery quite a lot. Probably coz digitiser is always on. It would be good if someone could turn off the digitiser. Coz I am pretty that's the reason for battery drain. After all both S7 and S6 use same S-AMOLED.
I am currently having a battery drain of 3%/30mins (WiFi on). I think rather than an app, we need a custom kernel.

Try out these two apps.
Glance and Off Clock. Very similar functions, it doesn't consume a great deal of battery life.
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=danursu.glance&hl=en_GB
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.saulius.mockus.off&hl=en_GB

not quite the same thing. the wave thing was anyways there by default. what we need is a true 'always on' display app. we need a kernel actually. no way to turn off digitiser.

Sadly the app is so good that I have decided to keep it anyways. Lol. And the fact it doesn't mess up with the lock screen makes it even better. Unlike NoLED your phone could be locked and you'd still have DynamicNotifications running.

What do you mean? Both of those applications support always on clock, with Glance supporting notifications. It's minimal battery consumption, the only downside is that with "Off Clock", you have to first open the app than lock the screen then press the home button to activate it, but other than that it works the same way, just without the customisations.

glance its ok...only thing i dont like its moving clock randomly

The clock moving randomly was only added in the most recent version, if you can find the previous version, the clock will stay in the same place.
I'm on the hunt, kept being brought to websites that I didn't think I could trust. You're welcome to try and find the order version. I think it's 2.2 unless the developer went from 1.0 to 2.3
---------- Post added at 05:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 PM ----------
I'm using Off Clock since it has white outline around the black text which is better for battery life

just wait for the S7 ports and you probably will get most of these features.

We won't be able to use Samsung Pay, if we install a custom rom

Ported app, not rom. It can be just like an app that you install. If they make it like that. I don't think there's a real reason that it needs any system permissions.

You can get same thing at cost of battery, anyone can get same thing at cost of battery(more on ips), but both G5 and S7 has an auxiliary processor which are very low powered and can only handle to show clock, these are very helpful, as main processor is very powerful and will consume lot of power even at lower Frequency. So basically you cannot port the hardware. You can do at cost of battery

Actually S6 too has low powered CPUs. And plus it has AMOLED. So you can pretty much make it work for S6 with minimal effect on battery as long as the digitiser is off.
