It SHOULD go into doze mode automatically. Sometimes it does and sometimes it gets hung up and takes forever to go into doze. Basically Greenify has an option to try and put it into doze mode really quickly, thereby giving you much better standby time. Here is an article on it to better inform you on it.

Does package disabler pro really get rid of the stuff? Or is it just hiding it?

I know on rooted devices with Titanium, when something was frozen, it was as good as gone.

This doesn't seem to be the case here at all.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] dajmanjt:
In my experience when I clear the app data and force disable it through package disabler pro, it is the same as freezing things through titanium. However titanium will always have better success rate because it has root and can break any processes that are attached to the app forcibly. Package disabler does work but it is still just a workaround for us folks stuck without root forever.

I'm just glad we have something lol

Ok so I factory reset my phone and noticed package disabler pro (Samsung) had a price next to it. Weird as I purchased it last fall (for my Note 5). I found another that's rated better and I thought if I have to pay (again) why not try something else? I bought EZ Package Disabler from the Play Store, installed it and manually disabled everything I don't want. Did not worry about clearing cache for each app as well. Kind of in a hurry to get my phone back LOL.

Restored all my apps from Play Store and took my phone off the wireless charger.

Got to my office this AM and noticed a first, battery at 100%.

Currently now off the charger for over 5 hours and 50 minutes, 25min of screen time and battery now is 93%. That's a first for this device LOL.

Can see in the battery discharge graph the nearly flat lines when the device is sleeping/dozing as it should be!

It may be fixed, finally!

I use Quickpic instead of gallery so I disabled it completely. Didn't like how it always ran in the background lol

So I went and paid for EZ Package Disabler Pro to give it a shot and I absolutely agree that it has a much better system in place to understand applications and processes. Also the feature that lets you see everything that is currently running is AWESOME! Good find.

Mine stays around 20% consistently or below with my usual daily usage.

Absoluetly agree about EZ Package Disabler. I prefer its layout and features. However I think some of the processes need to be reset before they are disabled. The only way I can reset them is to clear their data. EZ Package Disabler does not let you clear data from within the app. So I am using both EZ Package Disabler and Package Disabler lol

Yea overall I am definitely noticing much better background drain overall. Think if the s7 edge was a nexus phone running complete stock firmware..... it would have been the best phone ever made lol

Guys do you have any input on wireless charging ?

Does it damage the battery capacity? Is there any way to calculate the capacity ? I dont have a brand new edge to compare to...

I struggle to get 2.30-3 hours of screen on time with autobrightnesss, aggressive dose, bloat and settings all disabled... This is just madnes (my note is exynos).

I recall maybe having better battery life when I didnt used the auckeye luna wireless charger, does anyone has any input ? I used it for about a month, never in fast charge mode.

Most of my battery is eaten by radio usage despite having à good réception and more than 3 bars.

Il getting Desperate and thinking my battery is just faulty like 2000mah capacity...

Ads?

Has anyone noticed ads with EZ Package Disabler Pro. I just paid for and downloaded the app and an ad titled "Enhanced Verizon Store Visits" with text "Let My Verizon Mobile show helpful options..."

Is this because of this app or because I have re-enabled all the apps I had disabled using the Application Manager - in preparation to disable them using EZ Disabler? Seems odd.

Update:

Ok, I now realize that each app has notification settings and this is some Verizon app spamming me.

Guys there's another tweak that works reading past post about disabling cpu rendering and enabling gpu rendering on previous mobile's and also saving more battery life and getting better performance also this kills lag in the whole phone. I took a heavy risk and a chance of bootlooping my phone and voila:fingers-crossed: it worked. To enable hardware acceleration you must be rooted by going into system folder and going into the egl folder you can enable it by opening egl.cfg file as text and deleting the first line android 0 0. Make sure that adreno 0 1 is the first line save and change the extension Libgles_android.So to a bak file and save. Next back out all the way back to system folder scroll down to lib64 in that folder go to egl folder and do the same thing you did in lib folder just change that extension save reboot and your phone should be flying this worked on G935U PEH Firmware fully debloated by JrKruse. by doing this this drasticly improved my battery life the phone feels snappier as well as smoother. im also doing heavy gaming on my mobile playing FF Mobius with the highest settings with no lag on a custom resolution this phone is trully a jewel.

Is this different from just flicking the switch in Developer options to force GPU rendering?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] ohmyduck:
We buy samsung phones to block and disable things in their phones.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kenshin6105:
It's not that simple there is an option in developer mode as far as the Gpu goes but the real threat is cpu rendering everything which results in more battery lost. You want your Gpu to handle the user interface and let the cpu handle the calculations. But when your is handling the interface the as well as programs as well as gaming it puts even more stress on the cpu which creates lag stuttering. So your going to have manually disable cpu rendering in the system folder of root which is in my previous post. You disable cpu rendering your phone will a whole lot longer. I've done it and off of eight hours from a full battery only dropped me down to 90 percent.

It's completely safe just make sure to make a backup before you edit your system files

here's the source

Also reading a little bit further this is also similar to apple iPhone's architecture and how their phones are so quick and smooth and their texting is also smooth as well even watching videos on YouTube with a smoother and richer experience . Your phone will basically function like an iPhone but a little better. The iPhone is also gpu dependent it rarely depends on the cpu and at the same time your battery life will be much better. If you wanna read more about the iPhone's architecture just Google sorry for going off topic a little. I hope this helps those who want better battery life.

No matter what I do It won't let me edit it

---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:06 PM ----------

ok i got it to edit but i cant figure out step 2
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] kenshin6105:
Step 1

You must be rooted and must be on a custom firmware do not try this on a stock rom. This is only compatible with Android 6.0. Make a backup. Because where editing system files . Your going to have to use a file explorer to navigate to the system folder in the system folder find lib folder then in the lib folder your going to find the egl folder. Then in the egl folder your going to see egl.cfg and Libgles_android.so files. Your going to have to edit the egl.cfg file open it as a text then your going to delete android 0.0 line and keep adreno 0.1 line then save and exit.

Step 2

Two ways you can do this you can delete libGLES_android.so. Or change the so extension to bak here's an example

libGLES_android.so.bak

Step 3

Your going to have to go back out all the way to the system folder. Now you should see a folder called lib64 go into that folder and find egl folder and repeat step 2.

Step 4

Reboot. And you should be good to go

Hi Guys, I followed the OP's steps on disabling pretty everything he had on the pictures he posted. I am using a rooted s7 edge but now my Gallery app won't show any of my pictures.

Disabling App do not disable dependant services !

First of all, thanks a lot to Dajmanjt for this guide and to all the contributors.

I was also using Disable Package Pro for a long time (since my Galaxy Alpha). Thanks to this thread, I have tried EZ Package Disabler.

On EZ Package Disabler, I have tried the Manage button that is shown next to services when you press on an app. It seems that disabling the application do not disable the depending service(s).

An example with ANT HAL Service (see the screenshots). The app is disabled. When you enter in the details and click on manage there is still a service running that you can also disable. (I have not seen this on Package Disabler Pro)

I have found a lot of apps having services still running. Gear VR Services 4 services still running, All Share FileShare Service 1 service, BBCAgent 5 services still running...

I was wondering if "the lower battery life gain" if not clearing app data prior disabling was not induce by the remaining services running.

Maybe we should begin by disabling the dependant services, then the main app. Doing that way, the batch function to delete data of all disabled app might be sufficient.

Thanks for your feedback.

By the way someone know what is AASAservice?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] KPMcClave:
I currently have 83 packages disabled. I'm testing the Nougat beta, so I had to be less restrictive than I'd been (I think I had 144 disabled or so previously) due to issues.

I've gone through all 83 disabled packages (including the ones you mentioned) and not one of mine has any Services running currently. Had you rebooted your phone after disabling packages?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] patarchy:
Do you mean that when you en enter in ANT HAL Service and press "Manage" there is a red cross next to AntService com.dsi.ant.server.AntService (not as in my fourth screenshot showing a green tick)?

EDIT: SOLVED - It is a bug of the actual version (2.5.5)

I have mailed EZ Package Disabler. Below a copy/paste:

Me:

I have just purchased EZ Package disabler Pro.

I would like to understand the “manage” button next to service when you open an application.

When you disable a package it seems that the dependant services are still enabled and that you can disable them.

Why all services are not disables when disabling the main process?

Should I disable the services listed for a disabled app?

Thank you.

EZ Package disabler:

Hi,

Sometime Operating System prevent some services / packages from being killed. You don't need to disable the services listed for a disabled app.

​

Me:

Thanks a lot for your quick response.

Re: “Sometime Operating System prevent some services / packages from being killed”

--> For all apps with listed services, services are still enabled. This is a constant behaviour.

Why disabling the package does not disable the services?

What is the difference between letting the services enable or having them disabled?

Thank you.

EZ Package disabler:

Hi,

I checked it again. Actually it's a bug of app. We will fix it soon. All services by default should be disabled when we disable package.

[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Guides, News, & Dis] KPMcClave:

Thanks for the guide! I have spent a while trying to improve battery life on my S7 edge, and this seems to have made the biggest difference.

As many others I initially tried freezing all the bloat and found that battery life got significantly worse (2 hrs SOT). I have played around with rooting as well, and while then some of the tweaks improved battery life I found that the ENG kernal needed for root has poor power management (3 hrs SOT). I also tried leaving it fully stock, but I found battery life to be inconsistent. Some days it was great, but occasionally I would get horrible battery drain and only get 1.5 hrs SOT. Doing the suggestions in the OP seems to be getting me closer to 4 hrs SOT (I play some games that suck battery). More so, the idle train is really really low. I only lost 2% battery life over 8 hrs while sleeping.

Its a shame we have to go to all this trouble to get the spec'd battery life, shame on samsung and verizon for adding so much crap.

Thank you for the guide and the thread, usefull even when you have a different S7 version (mine is international).

I see in some of the posted screenshots that GSAM Battery Monitor shows in the Held Awake part figures for 'Deep Sleep - CPU freq 0' high values. In mine, however, I have 0s (0%), though it reports some doze time and doze sessions.

I guess this is a reason for a bad battery time. How can this be solved? Thank you
