Do you guys use auto brightness and how much SOT? I keep my SOT at max most of the time and i've done everything in this guide yet still reach max 4 hour SOT, occasionally 3.
[Galaxy S6 General] cdx47:
I use auto brightness and I get at least 3 to 4 hours on average so about the same. To get more than that you would have to use less Internet especially 4g.
[Galaxy S6 General] lowjinyik:
5 hours SOT. Not rooted, auto brightness at 50-100%, connected to wifi the whole time. Doing basic stuff like web browsing and other average joe stuff.
[Galaxy S6 General] KevinGleave:
Thing is, I dont even have a data plan. So i'm either always connected to WiFi or not connected to anything at all. Still, I dont reach much more than 4 hrs SOT
[Galaxy S6 General] eric150:
Package Disabler no longer works. Anyone know how to fix it/get in the app to enable apps?
[Galaxy S6 General] guaneet:
Only works on stock unrooted devices
[Galaxy S6 General] cdx47:
Other issues like number of calls sent /received, poor reception areas and so many other things can affect SOT. Also playing games and installing stuff can affect it. 4 hours SOT is not bad at all if you are actually using your phone as opposed to just leaving it in your pocket.
[Galaxy S6 General] eric150:
I am stock and don't have root.
[Galaxy S6 General] zeusumit:
I am also wondering that it doesnt work anymore. Initially i was getting around 5 hrs SOT but now with no reason I am getting not more than 2.5 hrs SOT.
[Galaxy S6 General] pnr2020:
It's working fine for me stock 5.1.1
[Galaxy S6 General] pnr2020:
Works fine
[Galaxy S6 General] ken_e1407:
What kimd of app is that? Can u share the name?

Thank you
[Galaxy S6 General] pnr2020:
It's called package Disabler it allows you to freeze all system apps without root
[Galaxy S6 General] zeusumit:
An anyone say what all can be freezed in Package Disabler apart from the pre defined ones highlighted in Pink. There are so many packages running and all those confuses me.

Thanks buddy.

Will go through the thread in details.
[Galaxy S6 General] fccr1990:
Just came here to say that I'm following your tips and see how it goes, but I'm sure it's going to be great as I was getting 2:30 hours SOT and cycles of 12 hours, and the phone was getting really hot. I've been just 3 hours using this configuration and my phone is cold as ice and it's no dropping as fast as before.
[Galaxy S6 General] Mrhoffmann:
I installed SwiftKey and have the idea this gives me a better battery life.

But i am not sure. :)

Go to settings -> energy profiles -> activate own profile, edit your profile, scroll down to wifi.active and change the value to 767
[Galaxy S6 General] pillopoulos:
I don't see where the energy profile is...

[Galaxy S6 General] templton:
Currently running power save mode with greenify. I also have several apps froze using titanium backup. I have hibernated the Google app with no issues as of yet and as of yesterday And got 14 hours and had 30% left after medium use/ Instagram snapchat texting and calls. Location was disabled along with wifi and Bluetooth. Not sure if this is considered good or not since I've had my phone for only about a week. I wanted to see if anyone wanted to share their power saving profiles for their g6 in this thread along with any tasker profiles anyone might be running. I am currently playing around with tasker to see if I can adjust my sync times.
[Galaxy S6 General] :
At least for me, having the Google app hibernated keeps it in a cycle. It wakes itself up->Hibernate->Wakes itself->Hibernate and so on and drain more battery cause of no deep sleep.
[Galaxy S6 General] templton:
I'll do a test run with it off tomorrow and check battery life. I did notice in my greenify profile once that it had opened itself.... I also just read your post about the rom you are using... Great post BTW. I'm using a Verizon s6 and want to flash to the very same rom you have for battery purposes but from my research I do not believe that TWRP exists yet for this model? Did you flash using Odin?
[Galaxy S6 General] geanv:

What google seevices recomendé

No update Samsung fix?
[Galaxy S6 General] benjmiester:
This system in the OP works for certain. I just hit over 7 hrs of sot! ! That's more than I've ever done on any phone ever.

My setup:

I'm on xtrestolite 2.3 so less bloat already. I have Samsung push, market feedback, galaxy apps and a few others disabled. Also in disable services I have any analytics, location, silent feedback, and update services I could find (there's a lot, at least 25 to 30 I'll try to list them later when I get home).

Running arter97 kernel as well with slight underclock on max cpu speed but the irony there is that looking at my cpu stats for that 23 hr run... it now spends over 80% of its time at minimum clock or deep sleep. That means my underclock has no effect and also that the principle theory of the original poster is right. Disabling all of the misc unnecessary background tasks keeps the cpu from doing work that you aren't telling it to do and letting it stay clocked lower and sleep much longer and better.

My day of use consists of using for work to navigate deliveries across town, so lots of mapping, text for each run I get and a LOT of use in Voxer which is a two way walkie talkie app that I use to talk to my dispatch center and my friends that are also working. I also use a lot of Facebook, flipboard and google+ but oddly the second too didn't even make my usage list. Maybe g+ goes in android os? I also never use more than about 75% brightness unless needed outside.
[Galaxy S6 General] tetill:
Yeah, It'll be great if you can list it. Thanks! Awesome SOT!

So far that's all I have, I'm sure there are many more. It just takes time to disable one or two at a time and see if it screws anything up long term. So far everything works fine for me without any issues except the rare but occasional play services error. It happens maybe once every day or two. No big deal. I also greenify ANY app that doesn't need to be open all of the time. Like I use Voxer for work, so I have to keep it open but FB, G+, Instagram etc can all be greenified and just open them when you need them.

Happy battery life tweaking!!! I'll update the post anytime I find new services that don't break anything. Some might do nothing, but collectively it sure seems to help! With only 25% ish lost to screen with over 7 hrs, there's clearly a lot being lost to the system, apps, and well not much we can do about processor loss but underclock helps a little there too, I guess. I don't want to dip into performance since that kind of negates the point of newer better stuff, but so far it hasn't at all. In fact, as I noticed in the cpu stats, it never even goes above about 1000 MHz on the little set and 1500 MHz on the big set no matter what I set the clock speed cap at anyway.
[Galaxy S6 General] don_gori:

I wish if u could share settings about setting up CPU freqs , and which program u use.

[Galaxy S6 General] trein91:
Isn't disabling those services related to location service and gps services going to break their function?

Eg isn't disabling geofence going to make navigation a whole lot more inaccurate?
[Galaxy S6 General] :
I really have no idea. Mine is still working flawlessly.
[Galaxy S6 General] olofmeister:
youtube video ?
[Galaxy S6 General] benjmiester:
So far nope. I haven't any apps fail to provide location that I actually wanted to find it. (mainly just maps and Voxer).

Slight update from me as well, My phone is well into it's second day on a light usage weekend so standby time has proven to be excellent. I'm currently at 1 day 5 hrs and still at 52% !!! That's only with less than 2.5 hours of screen on time though, like I said, light use weekend. But the standby is impressive. I feel like it would lose as little as 1% but use alarms with loud sound and vibration and also 3 alarms ( I like to wake up and realize I don't have to work yet and sleep more :D). So I lose about 3 or 4% overnight due to that. I guess I could set the alarm on my tablet and see how true standby is.

---------- Post added at 05:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:16 AM ----------

I'm using Ktweaker that I install via an APK. It's on XDA's S6 section somewhere. Using Arterkernel97 at the moment V 3.5 I have little core set to 400 min and 1200 max. Big core set to 800 min and 1600 max on interactive and Noop scheduler. BUT after reviewing cpu stats, it spend over 82% of it's time either in deep sleep or at the lowest 400/800 speeds. Rarely did it even go over 1000 on either core. I don't know if the max settings are even going to matter really. I don't game on my phone though, so gamers will have different results there. I also set max GPU speed to 600 MHz mostly due to reasons above. If arter97 gets voltage and screen off setting options... oh man. I could probably hit 8++ hrs SOT easy :D

[Galaxy S6 General] :
I can confirm that you should look up what 'placebo' means.
[Galaxy S6 General] benjmiester:
Yeah, you can't stop it as a whole. Using disable services to disable sub-processes is the only way (that I know of) to do this and not have an issues.
[Galaxy S6 General] fAndroid513:
Only on Samsung?

Can this be done on any phone, or just Samsung? I'm trying to decide between getting the Moto Nexus 6, Moto X Pure Edition, and Huawei Nexus. Battery is very important to me.
[Galaxy S6 General] davebugyi:
On every phone. Tough some of the services may be different on other phones.
[Galaxy S6 General] trein91:
Just what I found.

Disabling GoogleLocationManagerService will cause some random FCs OF GSF and will produce some error in some location apps like PTV.

Disabling NetworkLocationService will break some apps like "GPS Wake Up"
[Galaxy S6 General] :
Download better battery stats (free version on XDA, paid on play store. But please support the dev.) post partial wakelocks and alarms screenshot after a night on standbystandby with either data oror WiFi on.

Yeah, you can root. With or without tripping knox. Your choice.
[Galaxy S6 General] Gnexlex:
Ι was looking to improve battery consumption before messing with the software.My device is new and I'm.let's say, testing it for any flaws.I was thinking of flashing xtrestolite after a month maybe when I'm sure that everything works good.Is there anything you can recommend for doing so please?
[Galaxy S6 General] :
No.
[Galaxy S6 General] Gnexlex:
Ok then,how do I root my device without tripping knox?I,m on lollipop 5.1.1
[Xiaomi Mi Note Pro] tibinet:
I cant get back the root after upgrade to 6.6.3. I tried the TWRP, which offers the installation of SuperSU. Installation ends OK, but however the root is not working (it did before on the previous version). I also tried the beta version of SuperSU from here (http://xdaforums.com/mi-note-pro/development/guide-gain-root-access-easiest-method-t3140892) but the result is the same.

Some idea? Thanks

Stock Firmwares For Motorola Devices

[CENTER]Recognized Developer [URL="http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=5075128"]LuK1337[/URL] & [URL="http://xdaforums.com/member.php?u=5802235"]I[/URL] were annoyed by the way all stock Motorola firmwares had to be downloaded.
All firmwares can be downloaded on [URL="http://www.filefactory.com/folder/c6cdedc45a775d27/?sort=created&order=DESC&show=25&page=1"]FileFactory[/URL], but this limits file download speeds
This makes downloading a rom a matter of hours, so we came up with the idea to download them all...
And put them up at mega.nz
This will take and has taken us a lot of time since we need to download over 360 roms.
Also we have to reupload them.
We will also make a easy update script for Linux & Windows.[/CENTER]

- Get your Model number from the sticker under the back cover

- Now find the correct files for your device:

Titan

XT1063

XT1064

XT1068

XT1069

Thea

XT1072

XT1078

How to use:

Easy updater scripts to come

For now follow this guide, but use our firmwares

On linux use fastboot instead of mfastboot

Thanks

-EDIT

About flashing modem-only, i should use only this part ?

mfastboot.exe flash modem NON-HLOS.bin

mfastboot.exe erase modemst1

mfastboot.exe erase modemst2

Will work or brick the phone ? Someone can confirm pls ?

Thanks, just got time to update the phone and in the end i opted for the safest, flashed the whole stock rom then restored the cm12.1 twrp backup.

I have XT1068 Indian variant and was running 4.4.4 (21.11.14). I flashed RETAILDSDSALL_XT1068_5.0.2_LXB22.99-16_cid7_CFC.xml one. And now it's saying 'failed to validate system image'. My bootloader is locked. Any idea?

XT1078 firmware linked hard bricked my phone after OTA updates, what can I do?
[G 2014 Android Development] CreasingMass Dev:
Did you root it? Or changed stock recovery?
[G 2014 Android Development] busquet:
I installed it via mfastboot, then just asked for normal OTA updates. It downloads the update, reboots, then never boot again.

Before asking for updates, wifi would not connect, only after a few restarts. Frontal camera wouldn't work to.

This make me think this is not a valid firmware for xt1078, and is potencially dangerous.
[G 2014 Android Development] CreasingMass Dev:
You might failed to flash the firmware correctly, watch out for this commands from the guide in op:

mfastboot.exe flash partition gpt.bin
mfastboot.exe flash motoboot motoboot.img
mfastboot.exe flash logo logo.bin
mfastboot.exe flash boot boot.img
mfastboot.exe flash recovery recovery.img
[COLOR="Red"]mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.0
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.1
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.2
mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.3[/COLOR]
mfastboot.exe flash modem NON-HLOS.bin
mfastboot.exe erase modemst1
mfastboot.exe erase modemst2
mfastboot.exe flash fsg fsg.mbn
mfastboot.exe erase cache
mfastboot.exe erase userdata

After you extract the rom watch for this files called "system.img_sparsechunk.X", those commands ^^ are suposed to work for kitkat, for lollipop there might be 5 or more files like those ones, so you'll have to add the command manually for the extra files, normally there's only one more than kitkat, so you just have to add:

[COLOR="red"]mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.4[/COLOR]

and

[COLOR="red"]mfastboot.exe flash system system.img_sparsechunk.5[/COLOR]

[B][I]only if the 6th file exists[/I][/B]

So yeah, you will have to flash the whole stock rom again if you want it to work well.

If you actually done this, i suggest you to use normal fastboot from the android sdk or even download an older version of the rom for your device.

Note: Don't root or change recovery if you want OTA updates working correctly.
