[Motorola Droid RAZR] Ohmster:
Use Xposed Modules

I did look into the page URL you gave. It seems to be a "workaround" for slow to start phones due to scanning the SDcards at boot. I never had or noticed such a problem. Either one has some *very* slow phone, broken perhaps, or something is not right to make this an issue. He even says do not use this tool if you do not know why or if you need it. You are talking about battery drain, I presume? Dude, the xposed modules that come with CM11 and Kit Kat are out of this world useful and unheard of, all built right in! The xposed framework is the very first thing I enable after updating, must be installed at every update, and then update the modules I use when new ones are available.

These modules are powerful stuff. Nothing at all like apps that we used to use, even root apps because they are built in. Take a little while, turn on the xposed framework in app drawer. I made a shortcut to 2nd desktop. If for whatever reason, you do not have the Xposed Installer at the end of your app drawer, get it here:

[FRAMEWORK ONLY!] Xposed - ROM modding without modifying APKs

When you first open it, you will see text for the framework, tap it to install and reboot. (I think you need debugging enabled for this, not sure.Tap Build Number in Settings/About phone 7 times to enable Developer Options and turn on debugging.) Once you reboot, the framework is active. Tap Download to see the available modules. Take your time, read them, and pick a handful of ones that seem useful to you. You want to pretty it up, Themes are for you, I got nice rainbow icons for signal and WiFi. Boot Options, keep stupid stuff you do not need from starting up. App Manager that lets you do lots of things for certain apps like keep screen on (maps), keep resident, change font, lots of things. Plenty of them offer battery savings. Trickster will save battery by lowering the CPU speed when screen is off. Make it sleep sooner. Gravity Box.

Make sure the ones you download and install say Kit Kat or KK. There are some older Jellybean ones there, you do not want them! The list of exposed modules is ever growing, some are abandoned, some don't have an interface, but they are probably the single most powerful tools you have available on your phone without having to resort to expensive or multiple rooted apps. I paid for Greenify because it sped up the phone a LOT by cutting out that eternal fight for the few precious kilobytes of memory on the phone, every app wants it and won't let it go. Kit Kat put a stop to that, use what you need and then, GET LOST! I don't even install Greenify anymore.

I am still learning and for sure benefiting from these modules. Google for "Popular Kit Kat Xposed Modules" and read a few of the links to get an idea of what is good. Ask other people what they use, you will get answers.

Anybody out there have battery saving tips or Xposed Modules to share with krestian?

I talk too much and people get upset with it, I gotta stop now. Check the Xposed modules if you have not already done so. You will be quite surprised at what you can find in there. LOTS of battery saver options. The Application Manager may do what you want anyway. Try it!
