Good Day all,

I have benefitted greatly from Google and XDA. So I thought I would provide a consolidated way of saving our battery's grace from Android System demonic drain.

I am running Euphoria with Furnace, and I had loads of Gapps installed.

I tried multiple attempts over a 3 days period and did many researches back and forth. And it came down to these few main culprits:

1. Android Location Services

2. Google Play Services

3. Qualcomm Location Services

4. Google Now Launcher

5. Unwanted Sync

Tools I have used to assist in this matter.

1. Disable Service - here

2. Greenify

3. Privacy Guard (should be in built in most custom roms)

4. Titanium Backup

Basically the highest causing drain came from Google Play Services and Qualcomm Location Services. These items persistently wakes the phone up and runs on the background. Using greenify on there further cause issues as greenify tries to hibernate these services over and over again, making this a self-made draining routine.

I followed this thread on Google Play Services drain fix and used the Privacy Guard to perform those tricks. I ran through ALL Google Related Apps and as long as "Keep Awake", "Wake up" or "Auto Start" is enabled, I disabled them. I also look through apps I suspect were waking phone up by looking at the last activation of those events (Keep Awake, Wake Up, Auto Start).

Next I followed this thread on Guide to disable google play internal services using Disable Service app. I also took the opportunity to look at both 3rd party apps and system apps to see if there are services that could be disabled. I disabled Apex Notifier as I realize I didn't needed its service.

Then the next sneaky culprit was the Qualcomm Location Services. Even though I froze them with Titanium Backup, they persist in the system. So making a backup of them, I uninstalled them completely. Hasn't caused me any issue with GPS or Maps. They are namely, com.qualcomm.location and com.qualcomm.services.location. Both appeared as LocationServices 1.0 on Titanium Backup.

I went ahead to Greenify many Google Apps, namely Google App, Google Play Store, Google Services Framework, Google+. I also Greenify many apps that Greenify suggested would slow system down or appear to run in the background which I have no use for.

Lastly I uninstalled Google Now Launcher as it was persistently coming up as alternative home launcher even though I froze it. And I also went through settings of apps to make sure sync were turn off. I only kept Calender and Contacts and Gmail Sync on.

Now I have reduced Android System from 34% to 2% and increased my SOT from 2++ hours to 4++ hours at least. Not an out of earth SOT, but I believe that's decent.

Hope I helped and I wish you all the best in your endeavour to reduce Android System Drain. Cheers.

I can't seem to find App Ops anywhere..

Edit: found it by the name "Access lock" but there is no google play services in there..
[G3 General] JokerAce:
It should be found in settings page, "Privacy".
[G3 General] steelclaw:
I know that this guide is meant for CM based ROMs but I said to myself "ehh, what the hell" and I tried it on my Cloudy 2.2 and the results were horrible. Had to fully charge my device twice in order to go through 22 hours and a total of 2h of screen on time which consisted mostly of browsing and messaging. Wakelock Detector told me that the device was mostly asleep and everything was normal in the Batter Usage menu. Usually I get around 18-20h on a full charge with 2,5-3h SoT. Maybe the locations tweeks were not liked by my Tasker app and caused a huge battery drain, although it didn't appear that much as a wakelock trigger.

I am wondering if the problem was caused by Tasker or the stock ROM itself, but badly I do not have the time now to tweak around and I am reverting back to my previous configuration.
[G3 General] JokerAce:
Try using GSam battery monitor to find out the real culprit. I used that to boil down to the final two irritants - Qualcomm LocationServices.
[G3 General] steelclaw:
Really enjoying the app.

Is this in Kodi?

If so, try this (stolen from the Kodi forum):

SYSTEM - Settings - Add-ons - Get Add-ons - Kodi addon repository - Service Addons - Twitter... Disable Twitter Feeds
[Fire TV Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] porkenhimer:
If it is your Twitter feed that is the probem. Just install the Pushbullet addon, then install pushbullet on your phone and you can have all your notifications from your phone auto show inside Kodi, including twitter notifications.

I have a SPV M3100 and am trying to use it as a wireless Bluetooth modem however there is no Wireless Modem app in Programs -> Accessories.

Any ideas why ??!
[8525, TyTN, MDA Vario II, JasJam General] TheBrit:
It's in mine...I'm using it now to access this site on my laptop.

No idea why it should be missing though. Have you been messing around with the ROM? Updating it maybe to one that does not have it.

You can get the lastest ROM from www.orange.co.uk/business - maybe if you update with this you will get the wireless modem app back.

Hello all,

am having a problem since the previous update and continued after updating to lollipop, that sony removed their photos sync in the xperia with fb feature, which enabled me before to sync fb friends profile picture to be their display pic when they call me, now i cant, even when i sync using the fb app, it gets only a low res picture and doesnt show when someone calls me, so what is the solution or what is the alternative ? thanks a lot.

[Verizon LG G3] lexluthor:
Ok, well I screwed this up pretty badly.

I was trying to accept the OTA, but I botched a system file replacement and got stuck at the red Verizon V.

I have a fairly recent Titanium backup, so I figured I'd flash the 23C .kdz and get back to stock that way. I used this file.

http://xdaforums.com/verizon-lg-g3/general/vzw-vs985c01-kdz-t3077799

It seemed to have completed fine and rebooted, but now Im stuck at the LG boot logo.

What I do wrong? How do I fix?

EDIT: I realized I had to flash in CSE mode as opposed to normal mode, so I'm back up now.
[ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tingle012:
Hello,

I'm having a serious issue with my oneplus one (I bought it in November, no serious issue so far).

However, A lot of issues showed up suddenly overnight (without me installing or modifying ANYTHING at all).

Here's how it goes : after a few minutes of using apps, these apps either crash, or freeze, then the phone reboots.

I've tried factory reset, wiping dalvik cache etc... but the problem is not going away.

I even flashed the stock rom XNPH05Q 64GB, but it didn't help, I still had the same problem afterwards.

So I flashed back the original rom XNPH33R 64GB, but still nothing.

I've also tried the command make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p15 to no avail.

I really don't know what to do anymore...

I have made a logfile during which the phone freezed, then crashed a few seconds after I launched an app called "Summoner War" (which works perfectly fine on my other phone).

I am putting the logfile here in case it can help... (the crash is most likely in part2)

Any apps seem to trigger this crash (even settings triggers it sometimes)....

Should I consider sending my phone back to Oneplus for repairs?

Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated

Sincerely

Okay, S6 owners...

I know about the Theme Engine, I know you can download Avengers and Pink and whatnot but what I'm curious about is the level of control WITHIN the theme. I like the default theme very much but I'm getting a Gold model in a few weeks time; the dialer green and contacts orange are going to look like ass on a gold phone.

So, within a theme, what access do we have? Can we change colors, backgrounds, login screens, tray, etc, or are we limited to what we're given?

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] glennh:
Got my S6 (Verizon) on Friday. Pretty happy with the overall improvements. Main sad points are no better battery life and what seems to be a weaker bluetooth radio.

Overnight I charge my phone on a night table beside my bed. For 3 nights I slept well just like I have with my previous S3 and S5 phones.

I got my sexy new wireless charger yesterday and decided to use that on the night table to charge my phone, but was awoken by a nice "beep" when the phone was fully charged. If not bad enough, the charge seemed to cycle off and back on at some point in time (think it was less than a half hour), and it beeped again. This woke me up and is not going to work!

I can't find any option to disable in settings/battery or settings/sounds and notifications where I can turn off this beep on full charge. What I find odd is the different behavior of wired charging (no audible notification) and wireless charging (audible notification). I have confirmed that the beep is coming from the phone and not the charger by turning off the sound on the phone and letting it hit 100%.

Anyone know where this setting might be buried or know of some tweak or trick to disable this notification?

Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Wiseor:
I have yet to fully change my s6 from at&t but make sure it is not the charging pad making the noise. Some pads have speakers to alert you of the phone charging and when it's finished. If that's the case I just opened mine up and cut the cords to the speaker. If not than I don't think k there's much you can do other than trying to change the settings using USB debugging and adb.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] glennh:
I have confirmed that the beep is coming from the phone and not the charger by turning off the sound on the phone and wireless charging to 100%. Under that condition, there is no beep.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] Wiseor:
Well I'm not quite sure what you could do to turn off the beep but I'm sure there's a way similar to the method to turn off the back button and menu button lights. The best idea I had was to have your phone go into silent mode at certain times to make sure it doesn't beep every x minutes throughout the night
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] glennh:
Sadly, that's what I'm coming up with as well, which isn't what I want. I need to be able to be notified of work emergencies, college kid issues, etc. As flexible as android can be, it certainly is frustrating at the things you can't control without being rooted (and that doesn't appear to be an option today with Verizon Galaxy S6).
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] prjkthack:
Oddly enough I have absolutely no sounds coming from my wireless charger or phone when it charges to full. The only sound I hear is the one that occurs when it starts charging or detects the wireless charger. Other than that, the phone charges in total silence, and the charger itself simply changes from blue to green once it hits 100%.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] androidoholic:
Mine as well. I use the Nokia wireless charger. Maybe the charger you are using is telling your phone to make the sound when the battery gets full.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] glennh:
Little update here on a partial solution.

I actually found an app "Battery Full Notification" that allowed me to turn off the audible beep when the battery is full during wireless charging.

...but due to the cycling off and on of charging after that point, I still get a beep when it begins to charge again. *sigh*.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S6] gottech:
I use trigger to automatically turn off notification sounds when I connect charger then have it turn notification sounds back on @ 7 am. You can do manually if you press volume up then the gear and turn notification down all the way.

Is it possible to replace the todayscreen completely?

I managed to remove the todayscreen setting hklm\software\microsoft\today\enabled to 0 but this resulted in an area below the taskbar that was not updated when the last window was closed.

Background: I want to create a plugin based todayscreen that handles .net cf plugins.

Device: Qtek 9100 (HTC Wizard), wm 5, .net cf 2.0

[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] crino:
you can disable all todays plugin by code and enable just yours
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] nothin:
--was OT, so i removed it--
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] andemann:
That whisbar desktop looks awsome, definitly needs to try that one out.

The reason for my original post is to create a today screen replacement that can handle .NET compact framework plugins. The method suggested on MSDN to use htmlhost and generate html from .net cf is not a very good solution to create todayscreen plugins.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] crino:
if you want create today plugins forget .NET ;)
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] andemann:
I want to remove the today screean and create my own, written in .NET.

Not plugins for the existing today screen.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] rrife:
Not sure if this is outside what you're capable of or if it's something that would work for you, but you could just create a standard today plugin that itself has it's own plugin architecture that could load and display plugins written in .net cf. Then just tell you today screen to only load the .net cf loader plugin, then have that plugin load whatever it's setup to do.
[Windows Mobile Development and Hacking General] andemann:
If it is possible for a standard today plugin to load a .net cf component, why does all examples on creating a .net cf todayscreen plugin with a host require the .net cf component to output html that is displayed in the actual plugin?

Based on this I just asumed they could not load a .net control/form etc.

Any ideas on the possibility for a .net application to load the native todayscreen plugins in order to preserve functionality of the current todayscreen in my new application.

I have encountered this problem too.
