Any tips that you guys recommend? Perhaps a tool that identifies the resource-intensive processes?
It's pretty fast 95% of the time but just wondering

Apps that you downloaded, but don't use them, just remove. Get good quality apps from reputable source/brand. Your phone should let you know if the app is using more resources. Restart your device at least once a week to free up some RAM. In the settings, on the battery screen you will be able to see if an app or hardware is using % of battery.

Hello everyone.
Battery usage menu on my LG 4x shows that majority of battery is used by "android system" its like 70%, while screen shows 2% usage. On my other android devices that i owned it was like 10% max(android system process). Do u think its normal?
PS. My battery goes down rly fast on lg 4x hd.
Try disabling DRM services, i got that usage when the processor is at full power anyway
Drm service disabled, lets see In few hours. Moreover i have all the time about 600 mb ram in use, any1 can tell me what for?
I have wifi gps synchro bluetooth-all disabled.

I disabled It, still same battery usage. That 600-700 ram usage thingy is anoying, can any1 tell me what Is using 70% of ram?
Try disabling all the apps that are carrier made, or use a deodexed rom

check this tread, it also have a remove stock apps scipt to workaround that issue.
Also, download betterbatterystats to check the waterlocks and see what is consuming the battery
hey guys i herd there is a kernel for this phone that makes the phone overlock to 1.8ghz i cant find it can anyone link the thread to me if there even is one thanks!
They were before, but it is unstable and it fried CPU's so the devs dialed them down

Oh i see makes sense lol! but is there anyway to overlock this phone ? i searched but no one has made a thread here dont know why..
Galaxy exhibit 4g original development, there are a few there that over clock this phone for ics 4.0 and above

Well thank you good sir!
I am pretty sure you can still download some 1.8 clockable kernels, just not for 4.2.2

Why would anyone want that? It'd be better just to go ahead and run over the phone with a bus. There's a reason the OC kernels got dialed back by devs. BTW it doesn't make the phone that much faster either. If you need 1.8 another phone is the way to go.

Hey i definitely agree... my phone would bootloop if i went above 1631 mhz haha. Hey but i see your using nos. Whats your personal opinion on it, especially considering battery life?

It strictly helps with lag IMO. I just like how my apps run smoothly and I can run multiple apps without the phone crashing & rebooting. Far as battery there is no app or tweaks that will help if you use 4.2. In fact I got rid of my battery apps as they all just eat memory and do things any user with common sense can do.
Sent from my SGH-T679 using xda app-developers app
so did you determine that v6 supercharger is not necessary for our phones if using the latest version of NOS? i only ask because in your sig you used to have v6, but now it's just baked bean with nos.

Thanks ill try that. But by battery life, i meant like does nos make it even worse? Or does it not affect battery life at all? And i have found greenify and juice defender to help A LOT for saving battery.

Greenify is OK but your main battery culprit is Gnow/Maps. Technically Greenify is supposed to be able to hibernate Maps but that is useless as Gnow needs it quite a bit so it gets awaken a lot. I love Gnow and choose to live with that as I use mass transit and those features are needed. However if you don't, then disable Maps and that will increase your battery somewhat.
Far as Juice Defender and the like, they are a joke IMHO. I used Juice Defender for over a year (they haven't updated the app on over a year either) and just like a lot of them you only save battery if you let it disable data and Wifi when not in use. I don't really care for that and can turn those on and off at will myself. Trust me you will see these battery apps are all smoke & mirrors.
Far as NOS consumption of battery, seems to have no effect one way or another.
Guys, do you keep your power saver ON the whole time? Cause I'm doing that. It seems to improve my battery life. My phones battery last more than a day, and while it's ON, I don't see any slow downs or lag which is good. I think it's better to leave it On the whole time. What do you think? Thanks!
I'm keeping Power Save ON always either. The options I've ticked there are the ones for CPU underclock and Data Management. For a week or so I've tried Power Saver combined with Snapdragon BatteryGuru but it didn't improved the battery life which I already was able to achieve so I've uninstalled it. Now I have installed Wi-Fi Matic and Smart Profiles (Free) with Power Save ON and I get the best battery autonomy.
Nope as long sleep mode im good

So it's better to leave it ON right? Will the notifications be delayed or the screen will slow down? What do you guys think I should do, leave it ON, or just when the battery is getting low then i'll ON it?

Leave it on. The slow down is barely noticeable, and it'll get you some extra time before the phone needs to be charged.
Personally, I only tick the cpu box.

There's no downside to leaving it on. 1.1GHz is plenty for most everything to run perfectly smoothly and it doesn't affect the GPU so gaming remains excellent. Personally I don't find it hugely useful (maybe an extra hour with my use) but it sure doesn't hurt anything

what do you mean not useful? It is actually. hehe. I mean it gives me more battery life. Do you keep yours ON all the time too?
I've found another great app for battery saving, which switch on/off data connections smarter than Power Saver. I'm talking about GreenPower Free Battery Saver / GreenPower Premium. I hope this helps you. It helped me.

Like I said, with my usage I only get about another hour, and yes that's with it on the whole time. I don't doubt that the way others use their phone could make it have a larger effect (I'm jealous of these people ) , but for me 1hr doesn't cross into the "useful" category.

Forcing the CPU to under clock won't affect your performance but potentially greatly improve battery life, so why not.
I am looking for a ram cleaner widget equals or similar to the one that comes with LG Optimus G.
Any recommendations?
You don't need one.
Sent from my XT1053 using Tapatalk 2
Correct, Android does not need a RAM cleaning program. I did not know that LG included one. Shame on them. "Cleaning" your RAM will only result in greater battery use, and decreased performance.
Thanks for advising, but i am still looking for one.

Do you use some kind of apps to kill running applications? Or you think that you don't need that and you have enough battery for a day?
Sent from my C6903 using xda premium
I don't bother, I've had no problems with battery life. I usually go 1.5d on a charge.
On healthy Android you should not use any Task Killer because is not needed and it's not a good solution but sometime I used Task Killer because my cooked Android didn't do well his job so I tried to help.
its usually a bad thing to use a task killer because android will have to restart alot of those services it kills which burns more battery than it saves.

Each app has a set criteria and if you use an app killer then you are wasting your time because the app will simply restart when the app's criteria is met again.
Your best bet is to use apps like autostarts or greenify or both, as they will alter the set criteria and will actually save battery.
Been using autostarts for years, you'd be surprised to see what starts up and when.
Avoid active task killers like the plague they're all crap.
I was using autostarts on my X10, but I was rooted then and now I'm not rooted, so I will look up greenify

I have been using Qualcomm Snapdragon BatteryGuru since I last flashed 290. It's a bit vague about what it does (other than give you charge reminders and control some background data for some apps), but I can easily stretch a charge into 2d if I want to. Obviously, heavy use still tops out around 18h, but it does seem to make some improvements. Wish I knew more about what it was doing, though.
