Its rather fast for changing rom now.. But anyway, lets see..

Battery, RAM & Performance Tweaking Guide
**BATTERY CALIBRATION**
Charge your Battery to a 100%:
-> WIPE BATTERY STATS
-> REMOVE Charger
-> Use for complete cycle (to nearly 10%)
-> Do not reboot anywhere in between
-> CHARGE to 100% (and give additional 1 hour after that)
-> Enjoy COMPLETE BATTERY CYCLE
This ensures that when your battery shows 5% remaining, it actually is 5% instead of really being 15%. That's why battery calibration is important. It doesn't improve battery life, but gives you your COMPLETE Battery life.
MORE:
- Go to SETTINGS>DEVELOPER OPTIONS
- Force 2D GPU rendering
**RAM Cleaning**
- Do not use task killers
- Freeze/Move to Quarantine those APPS which you DO NOT USE regularly and you don't want them TO RUN IN THE BACKGROUND
APP QUARANTINE on Play Store
Go ahead, try it. Move all unwanted apps to quarantine now!
**DEEP SLEEP BATTERY SAVER**
Your phone sips the least amount of power when it is in DEEP SLEEP STATE. There is a new app in the marketplace which can FORCE DEEP SLEEP STATE on your phone. This is especially useful if you want the phone to conserve battery for hours and then wake up for a minute and sync all new alerts in one go. This can help prolong your usage on a single charge.

Don't make people happy when you're still uploading. Start the freakin topic when you're actually done, and people can actually test something in case of only read whats coming.
Hate it when people go like create topic like crazy! and then find info about the rom and its like:
"hey man! New rom! Its lite and fast! still 4 weeks to upload though! Stay tuned" Blegh!
Anyway thanks.

Thank you for the links and your work but I'm afraid I'll have to wait till tomorrow to flash it

So far so good, no bugs till yet, everything smooth and fast. I will see how battery goes in the following days.
Info is showing RomAur, is that cause you used it as base?

@thunderising,
thank you for the rom. It`s running till now stable and i don`t found till now bugs.

[Q] Scheduled "Extended Battery Mode"

[Q] Scheduled "Extended Battery Mode"
I would like to ask you if anybody knows how to set up the schedule time for turning on/off "Extended Battery Mode".
I tried SmartConnect from SONY but this app can only open the system settings shortcut in the specific time, but it cannot actually turn on/off Extended Battery Mode.
I have my Xperia V rooted.
Any answers appreciated.
Thanks.

But Smartconnect can disable/enable any connections (bluetooth,wifi,data,sound etc.) at a specific time, isnt it the same, but a different way?
I'm using it as some sort of automatic profiles service for specific times.

Yes, you are right - but I like the way how STAMINA and Ext. Battery Mode handles the battery.
(I would love to have real STAMINA mode on my Xperia V, but it is not possible.)
I would like to have:
- when battery lower than 20%, turn on Ext. Battery Mode
- when time from 23:00 to 6:00, turn on Ext. Battery Mode.
(I tried many Battery Saver app, however it actually does not work.)
Can you share with me some of your profiles in SmartConnect?
How did you set it up?
Thanks.

one setting i use mostly every day:
when time: 23:50-5:30 (Every Day)
startaction: disable bluetooth, disable mobile data, disable wifi, brigthness 7%
endaction: enable mobile data, brightness 40%
another thing i use:
when 22:00-7:00 (Monday-Friday)
startaction: Soundmode silent
endaction: Soundmode normal
something like this, i think its a good start, if you wanne keep open your smartphone at night. i had 3% battery usage last night (8hours)
(i also use greenify donate version, stock sony fw)
but the battery usage will vary from user to user, its up to the personal usage and what apps you use (in background and so on)
if my battery under 20% then i can manually turn down brightness, disable 3g (enable only 2g) i dont need my smartphone for that.i understand people like to have automatic functions like that, but i personal not think its necessary to have everything automatic.

Thanks.
1. Do you have any other Battery Saver installed?
2. We have almost the same settings. However, I found out that if you have Location-based WIFI enabled, it has higher priority than SmartConnect.
startaction: disable bluetooth, disable mobile data, disable wifi, brigthness 7% => WIFI will automatically turn on after few minutes.
I like this feature that saves battery while there is no known WIFI, but I would have it turned off during the night.

i use only greenify.
not using Location-based WIFI...i deleted that apk.

Ok, what did you GREENIFIED?
Any tips for smoother running?

if you use an app like sd maid, then maybe you noticed that apps like walkman are running in background, also DLNA/TV App-Starter and other stuff.
with donate version i can greenify system apps like walkman (experimental feature)
and i noticed that Xperia Home wakes up sony apps like walkman. (in greenify it said it) so i greenify stuff like walkman. but will it help for better battery life? no idea...i just think why it should run alltime in background the walkman or DLNA or whatever...for a faster first start i guess, but whatever.
but i never had a bad batterylife with stock fw. (also without greenify it was ok)

Thanks.
I used Wakelock Detector and I found out that many so called Batter Savers are not savers.
Why? They woke up my device so many times that it would have definitely affected my battery.
E. g. JuiceDefender - it woke up my device from DeepSleep app. 200x during 8 hrs.

Extended Battery Mode does a little more than just shutting off Bluetooth and Wifi. It also stops a number of backgrounds processes to be active.
The request for a scheduled Extended Battery Mode is a reasonable one, IMO. For example because enabling it kills functioning notification and reminders. To my personal opinion a selector what should be muted down would also be a good thing. Or the entire stamina thing should be integrated with Greenify, which in the end has exactly the purpose saving on system resources (and therefore battery power).
The basic thought of just letting things run is a comparable wrong idea as letting TV's, Surround Receiver and other household items in stand-bye. We all now now that this has been a real silly idea.

Thank you for supporting my idea.
Can you tell me what kind of app you have greenified?
Thanks.
P.S. I tried e.g. Tapatalk 4 - and it "Failed to put to hibernation".

Basically everything that does not require a widget to run, or alerts / alarms to be active. First I did not think so much of it, but Greenify has become my favourite app drawer, so to say. I think it's time for me changing to the donate version.
I got used to it but of course it's not a real app drawer. The idea shoot into my head, what if there was a launcher with a build in App Drawer that has the capability to greenify?
Sorry for the diversion from the subject.
I thought Sony including Superstamina in Smart Connect would be useful. It has already some system profiler functionality, and could be made even more being one.

I must say that Greenify is awesome. This guy should definitely work for Google.
He should show them how to handle the battery consumption.
However, I have still the problems. I did the test during the night:
- turned off WIFI + mobile data
- all apps available were greenified (Google Maps + Google Search as well)
... but still, my battery went down for 6% - check it.
Any suggestions?
I really do not understand why the phone needs to do wakelock almost every 30 seconds.

Same XV on stock ROM. Over night 1 % drop, sometimes nothing. Airplane mode, Extended Battery on.
No solution just a suggestion. Uninstall everything you don't need. Greenify Talk.

1. What do you use for auto Airplane Mode?
2. If I Greenify Hangouts, I will not receive push info - we use it in my company.

I am using airplane mode manually. I just accept to switch off /disable a couple of things when not needed. I used a number of profilers /schedulers in the past. In short, most cause more work than they save. If you believe you may need one, try Profile Widget, it's one of the most simple, hassle free.
My feeling about Hangouts is uninstalling it, and using the previous Talk.It is not as a fat pig. You likely still would not get notifications if it's greenified. I greenify it before I sleep.

So here we go for you to see that I'm not talking nonsense.

Thanks.
I saw that the problem of Wakelock is NLPWakelock + NLPWakelockCollector = from 14 hrs it ran about 7 hrs. according to WL Detector.
(It is Google Now - but the worst is that I disabled all the stuff related to location in Google Now.)

[Guide] Notification FIX - Works 100%

So if you are having issues with notifications not coming in or coming in late this is finally how to fix it 100% on every app. It seems to have a very slight impact on battery but nothing major. From what I saw it was about 1% per hour drain... Which is worth it for a working phone
Anyways, the way to fix this requires it to be set from a computer on every restart of the phone which is probably the biggest problem with this method. I'm working on a way to maybe have a script run at every start up to fix the issue. Which will probably require root. We'll see...
1. Download and install the ADB drivers - Follow the guide here: https://www.xda-developers.com/install-adb-windows-macos-linux/
2. Once you have ADB installed and enabled on your phone like the guide says in step 1 above, you want to be on the ADB command prompt...
Type in the command:
Code:
adb shell dumpsys deviceidle disable
The command prompt should return with:
Code:
Deep idle mode disabled
Light idle mode disabled
That's it! Now your notifications will work fine. I've tested this for a day and every notification came through on time.
Just like to add that I have adaptive battery off, and every app is set to optimize. Not sure if this makes a difference or not.
Again this must be applied on every restart (which sucks) but at least it's something, for now.

What he likely meant is more specifically what applications are you having issues with. Through extended idle I'll admit OOS kills every background task, but using the Oneplus messaging app and normal google applications I'm no longer getting late notifications like I was on my Oneplus 3. There is another setting that showed up under my notifications this morning that basically detected that I had gone to sleep and put all applications on hold until I woke up, though I cannot find this setting after clicking that notification this morning.

It's a general android issue with how doze mode works. This disables doze mode. Should work on any phone honestly.

You can create a script with the command on SManager "Root required", set script on boot. I will run the command above at every boot.

Can you please explain how to use it with this app?
Edit: Found this and it works: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O15lBZ-0mwM
Also, will disabling doze have a massive impact on battery life?

Weird, since adaptive battery's description states that it's the reason why you might get late notifications and it's supposed to fix itself with time as the OS learns your app usage habits. Anyways, you might be right.

Is this an issue only on 6T?

As this is Pie related, no.

Tested on a Mate 20 Pro and Pie is not killing the apps in the background. Huawei have the option to select Doze - per application (Apps/Special Access/Battery Optimisation).

Then it's because of changed made by Huawei. AFAIK this is a general (Stock-)Pie issue.

Enable true AOD and DT2W through Magisk Module.

I was not satisfied that my device allowed always on display only for notifications.
Here's a Magisk Module that I found to enable true AOD on our device, not only for notifications but with time, notifications and battery level.
Please be thankful to the developer - NOT me. I had no part in this and I will only link to the developer's thread: https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-xl/themes/display-enabler-magisk-module-android-9-t3857025
It works flawlessly on my A3. Advantages:
- you get a true always on display with time, notificationsand battery
- double tap to wake works (though it's a bit of a hit and miss at times)
Apologies if this has been shared before and thank the original developer.
Cheers!

Battery does drain faster. I can't give you exact scores though. There are some solid tutorials under the Guides section of this forum to get Magisk. Personally, I installed twrp and flashed magisk.

@thedisturbedone Thanks for sharing this, man! I'm gonna try it for sure. Honestly, I don't care that much about AOD but not having DT2W was a dealbreaker for me.

DT2W works like 0,05% of the times.
(Basically never ever ever)
I've been using this mod for 7 days now and DT2W worked like 5 times. Maybe less.
AOD is flawless tho

Confirming that DT2W doesn't work, which I don't mind (I'm using wave gesture over proximity sensor to turn the screen on or off). AOD seems to be working fine, though it doesn't seem to turn off after 10 seconds in a pocket. When I cover proximity sensor, after 10 seconds display goes off, but then back to AOD again and this repeats every 10 seconds while the sensor's covered. Is it the same for everyone or do I need to investigate if some app is the culprit here?
Edit: I haven't identified which app might be doing it, so I fixed it with Tasker. Now AOD will shut down if covered for more than 5 seconds, exactly as designed

For anyone wondering - AOD seems to be consuming about 1-2% battery per hour (additionally to the standard idle usage).

That's true. AOD is a big hit or miss. Meanwhile, I've moved onto custom roms and happily using havoc with DT2W.

Would you recommend havoc as daily driver? How good is it? The battery? And what about any issues?

Would you mind sharing the tasker action?

Bicet said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Profile1 - proximity variable, state Proximity sensor,
enter task "variable set, %PROXIMITY, true"
exit task "variable set, %PROXIMITY, false"
Profile2 - enable AOD, event "display on",
enter task"custom settings, type: secure, name: doze_always_on, value: 1"
Profile3 - Disable AOD in pocket, state "Proximity sensor" + state "display off"
enter task"wait 1 second, if %PROXIMITY ~ true; custom settings, type: secure, name: doze_always_on, value 0; end if"
Profile 1 is only to get state of proximity sensor. Profile 2 enables AOD every time you turn on the screen. Profile 3 disables AOD when if the display's off and proximity is covered for more than 1 second (in my case it takes about 5 seconds to actually disable the AOD, not sure if due to Tasker polling or priorities of different tasks). You might add exit task to enable AOD when the phone's out of the pocket. Actually you can probably move profile 2 task to profile 3 exit task
I'm combining it with Wave Up app and additional profiles and tasks (for example I disable AOD when I have wired or BT headphones connected as volume buttons are blocked with AOD), so you might need to refine it to your needs. But I guess you get the idea

Battery is good. But if you are looking to play games, the device gets heated quite quickly. Probably an issue with intensive graphics. I've been using it as my daily driver.

I was able to install magisk module, I installed the aod enabler module and no different option appears than before.

Thank you.
In the main post, there is an old link where it says:
"The way this works is explained here"
I clicked there and downloaded v1
In the end it is not what I expected, I thought I had more options to turn it off after a certain time, or turn it on only with notifications.
Able to try pixel experience instead

You can have such features, but you'll need to use some automation app - I use Tasker to fine tune the AOD. I think that even Pixel phones have only on/off option by default.

If you are rooted with xposed installed you can activate AOD and pulse on pickup natively.

Someone please help me out
I installed the module on stock rom. It was working ok.
Then I installed a custom rom (Pixel Experience Rom)
The rom had the AOD included in itself so I didn't need this module.
Then I decided to go back to full stock (stock recovery, stock rom, stock everything), and i achieved this by flashing the Xiaomi official fastboot flashable full rom.
Now i installed Magisk again just for this module and it does not work at all.
I'm going mad guys

Is the module really installed and active? Magisk changed the installation template recently, so it might be necessary to update the module. You could try flashing older Magisk version and install module again to see if it helps.

Why Is My Phone Using So Much Ram

For the most part it is fine but this is right after being idle for 30 min and it stays like this all day long and I think it is killing my battery because I can't even make it a full day any more

you could put some apps to sleep on the settings if Pixels have this option. Also, not used ram is wasted ram

I guess but it never did this before

You should utilize the apps that help find what's going on.
I always keep gsam battery monitor pro.
But for some more info betterbatterystays is a good way to start.
If you're not getting good battery then something is up. Probably a rouge app running in the background.
I'll download that app and check my ram.
What rom are you on/rooted/models installed.
More information you provide the faster you'll get help.
I'm personally on A11 crDroid v7.13
And I get on average 1 hour SOT/10% battery.
I do usually only run the device from 30-80%
I try to stay between this in hopes to preserve battery. Considering the ridiculous price Google got out of us.
My back camera lens is cracked and I'm honestly considering a pixel 4a.. I don't 5g anyway.
Edit: so here is where I'm at ATM

@andybones I did state at the bottom of my first post that I'm on Stock A12 and Cleanslate Kernel but I didn't mention that I am currently rooted and I have AccA module installed and set to charge to 80% I have the GoogleDialerMod module, Universal Safety Net Fix module, BusyBox module and More Live Pixel Wallpapers by Typhus_ I've used the paid version of those apps that you mentioned but I usually don't find anything all though I haven't since this started.

How well does that zz naptime app work and I know people always ask what features are available on crDroid but what I was wondering is what is missing from crDroid that stock android offers?

I believe it does. I have it set to doze immediately. and my texts don't suffer from coming in. and things like gmail work fine as long as turning off battery optimization.
so for me it's beneficial.
It's probably close to what Proton ROM is missing:
here is text from protons site to help me out:
"Not all Pixel-exclusive features are supported due to their proprietary nature. The following features are supported (depending on your device generation, like on the stock OS):
Active Edge - not on Pixel 5
Adaptive connectivity - yes
Adaptive Sound - yes with magisk module
App suggestions - yes
Assistant quick phrases - not sure but should
Auto-rotate face detection - maybe
Call screening - yes
Extreme Battery Saver - yes
Flip to Shhh - yes
Google Discover feed - yes
Increased touch sensitivity - yes
Live Caption - yes
Live Translate - yes
Magic Eraser - not sure, but may not have this, but does A11 have it?
Now Playing - yes
Screen attention - yes
Screen-off “Hey Google” - I assume yes, but don't use it
The following features are not supported:
“At a Glance” on lock screen - no
“Rules” automation - pretty certin no
Adaptive charging - crdroid has smart charginging in crdroid tweaks, but may be missing adaptive charging
Battery Share -has "power share" quick settings tile
Detailed battery usage history slots -seems to have this
Game Dashboard -crdroid twekas has a gaming mode in crdroid tweaks
Motion Sense - not sure what this is
Pixel Stand integration - maybe missing this
Quick Tap (this may be missing, but Tap Tap is probably better anyway)
Recents text selection" (has this since it comes stock with Pixel launcher with the gapps)
TL: DR -- really just:
“At a Glance” on lock screen
“Rules” automation
Adaptive charging
Pixel Stand integration

No problem. Hope it was useful!
It's a solid ROM! I love it
