I don't use one. I don't use many heavily themed roms, and I strip anything I use to nearly nothing, and only add particular apps I use. Aside from that I have 0 issues with battery even under heavy use. So I would ask someone that uses them. I'm sure there are plenty others that do that.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JoeBear1975:
Gotcha, I'm sure someone will read our posts about it & hopefully recommended a good one.

I actually have pretty good battery life with this ROM, but anyway I can save a little more is helpful.

I Like DU battery saver. It seems to kill some of the root apps however. But you can exclude them. I don't use it anymore only because I'm happy with the battery life. No kernel manager. Lots of apps. Other than that I have heard good things about the greenify module.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] UnKnOwNHoMeLesSDrUnK:
Shut app also does a great job at saving battery or the good old greenify too

I'm running nk2(through odin) update and rooted again. I reinstalled X-Note Rom and now s-heath isn't working.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JoeBear1975:
Seems like everybody is getting great battery life with this ROM except me. I mean, don't get me wrong, I'm getting good battery life (better then any other ROM I've ever used), but with heavy use, I only get about half a day. With normal use I can get all day & then some, but some days I am on it more then others. Is it possible that I need to change something in settings?

BTW [MENTION=3213038]zillahakzor[/MENTION], thanks for the info. I think I'm going to see if there is something I can change to help out with battery life instead of DLing another battery app. I've uninstalled BetteryBatterStats. It has worked greata on other ROMs though, so if anybody asks you for a recommendation for a great battery saving app. I rocommend it, lol.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] millerboy3:
I've actually got it working on my smoothkat rom, after about 6 tries. I had to put it in /system/priv-app/ and set permissions and it was good to go after that.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] ryanalan82:
A big difference would come from using umbrella core governor, and intelliplug. I am running twisted's 12-27-2014 18.16 kernel. Cpu: umbrella core 2.7/268, sio/128 entropy off , hard limit left alone, intelliplug/touch boost, intellithermal 85°/90°c

Don't know what better battery stats is but I've setup greenify just right as well.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] JoeBear1975:
Thanks everyone for the great tips. Whenever I get a chance I'll try some of them out.

Decided to check out a new battery saving app. It's called Green Power (Free Version). After installing, I changed some of the settings in it, but nothing on the phone. Here is my result…

This is with average use, no real surfing, just some texting & phone calls mainly. I'm very pleased with this. Thanks again to everybody's suggestions.

The real test is your SOT. Getting 2 days out of just calls is not asking too much on any rom from my experience.

True, but it's the best I've ever had, so I'm excited to see how good it'll do with heavy usage. I was planning on doing that & then posting both pics, but I've never been one to have patience, lol.

I would also recommend turning off Sprint's connection optimizer. It does nothing beneficial really and as you can see uses a significant amount of battery. I turn it off on every phone I see go out my door at my Sprint store.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] samep:
[MENTION=2336041]millerboy3[/MENTION] I found the Sprint specific issue that causes wanam to break the "All Calls", reverting to "Missed Calls".

On your ROMs' original feature.xml, delete the highlighted line, "...LogsViewBy>SPR<..." and replace with the line that wanam creates, "...ConfigDefaultViewBy>AllCalls<..."

Of coarse, wanam users can just edit the existing /system/csc/feature.xml the same way to fix existing default call log view.

It's better to edit this way because it's wanam proof; at least it can't break and keep reverting to "Missed Calls" every time a wanam setting is changed as I originally suggested.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] millerboy3:
My roms are xposed proof. This should not occur on my roms. Only ports :)
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] samep:
Honestly, I didn't download all the TW ROMs and verify which ones it applies to. I only know it applies to the stock file which also worked on a couple of ports I posted in.

I directed this at you because you had quoted me in one the threads and said you would have this fixed in a future release. Albeit, you didn't say how so I updated my earlier findings once found, not just for you but also those that found the original suggestion useful.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] millerboy3:
Forgive me, lots of things going on lately! I don't recall however saying that is fixed in a future release? :confused:

Anyway its something we can't modify from the roms original dev. Not without asking first at least, its a decision made my the original dev of the rom :) However this is pongo's port not my own. So you will have to wait until he returns, or I get permission to assist/participate in this port myself to update it! (If it gets updates)
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] samep:
Funny how recollection can be tricky. Here's the quote; however, I may have misunderstood your reply because I responded with two user suggestions in the post you quoted.

You may have been replying that you intend to remove the annoying audible volume change rather than the subject we've been discussing today. If I'm mistaken, I apologize for the confusion. Now you know... Should still help users toggling options in wanam and manually fixing the log view each time.

I'm using the Battery Monitor Widget app. It's not for battery saving per se, but it shows exactly what is using up your juice. There is an option to install a Helper apk within the app which gives very detailed info on your battery usage, but i think this is only available if you upgrade to the Pro version like i did.

I kinda read a bunch of stuff here on xda. Checking in on all different threads is a good thing. I check in on threads for our phone on Sprint, tmo, and international.

Besides the starkissed thread, u might wanna look at the AEL thread under Samsung galaxy note > original development.

Hi there, can you confirm that you have Wanam Xposed installed via Xposed Installer with this Xnote ROM without FC issues? I wanted to install that module to remove the "Roaming Indicator Off" from the notification dropdown since there isn't an option within this ROM's settings.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] samep:
Sorry, but I have limited use of custom ROMs. I started with rooted stock and the two custom ROMs I tried had issues of various sorts so I went back to rooted stock.

I do have preferences so I shared a couple of fixes that I found. AFAIK, the fix was confirmed working for users of this ROM and bobcat. Try it; you can always disable and uninstall the module if it doesn't work for you.
[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] riverob:
Ok. No prob. I was rooted stock as well and after installing Wanam Xposed my SMS stopped working and had Call Recording even though I didn't have it activated. I'm just wary of installing it now since this ROM has been running so smoothly.

I can copy files from my pc to it, flash roms from it, but when I try to write on it from the phone, it will not write to it.

[Sprint  Galaxy Note 4 Android Development] martuseich:
I might agree with you except that I have no trouble making or receiving calls on the network. I've never used wifi calling so the calls are definitely going through the mobile network.

It's odd though, now that you mention it I haven't seen the icon for the signal strength. The signal bars return when I disable Xprivacy. Guess it's gotta be a setting in Xprivacy.

Thanks guys

By the way, for those of you value your privacy and who have an issue with the permissions some of the Play Store apps demand, give Xprivacy a go. You can find it in the exposed downloads list. It allows you to control EVERY possible data leak. For example, you can block internet permissions from apps that you'd like to run that have no need for access to the internet & there are many you'll be surprised to see that have access to the net without your knowledge, like the stock Android "Gallery" app. It has access to both the internet and your contact list. Ummm.... why does it require those permissions? Hmmmm.......

There are apps that ask for permissions like:

Get device ID

Get device serial #

Get device IMEI #

Phone_listen

Location_listen

Media_CameraPermission

Media_Record.Audio.Permission

Media_Record.Video.Permission

Location_GMS.getLastLocation

Location_request.Location.Updates

Wifi_getScanresults

These are just a few of hundreds of permissions some of these apps have access to. Some apps legitimately need some of these permissions, but many don't and mine your info/data as well as have ability to control your audio and camera to do with whatever they choose & you don't have a clue.

From the OP in the thread:

"XPrivacy can prevent applications from leaking privacy sensitive data. XPrivacy can restrict the categories of data an application can access. This is done by feeding an application with no or fake data. There are several data categories which can be restricted, for example contacts or location. For example, if you restrict access to contacts for an application, this will result in sending an empty contact list to the application. Similarly, restricting an application's access to your location will result in a set location being sent to the application."

It locks down your newly downloaded app before it ever has a chance to open & begins to ask you if you want to grant various permissions the app asks for once you start the app. It's a little work to set up to begin with but well worth it if you value your privacy and it's FREE although I highly recommend supporting the developer. A LOT of work goes into this app & he's always improving it.

Sorry guys. Not here to hijack the thread, just sharing an awesome app!
