Hello,

I've been using this device for about 5 months now and the battery life for me has been great so far, but there's so much you can do when you need the juice in your battery last longer. In order to help those who want to get the best battery life out of their phone, I've compiled a list of things I do to make my phone last longer.

We'll go from the things most effective to the least and mind you, all of these can be done without rooting of using ADB etc. So let's start

'''Turn on Gray Scale'''

As we have an AMOLED screen, turning on grey scale will give you an improvement in battery life of around 25-35 %, and it's especially noticable if you use your phone in high brightness mode.

'''Dark theme'''

Dark theme obviously saves battery on our phone, there's and awesome guide on XDA guiding you to do it without rooting or using any theme engine.

'''Set brightness to 50%'''

Our eyes don't perceive brightness linearly, so 100% brightness will take around 50-70% percent more battery than 50%, but going much lower won't help either cause increasing brightness from 0-50% results in around 20-30% extra power draw.

'''Restrict background running of less used apps'''

You can restrict an app from running in the background and this setting is baked right into the App Info settings,

Go to app info and tap on battery usage, from there, restrict the app.

'''Enable data saver'''

This can be enabled via Quick Settings menu and this can drastically save battery if you're mostly on Mobile data.

'''Turn off Auto Sync'''

It is long known that doing this can save a bit of battery.

'''Enable Battery Saver'''

Pretty self explanatory.

'''Change minimum width'''

Set minimum width to anything less than 400, this leads to less information being displayed on screen which results in lower usage of GPU, and thus better battery (somewhat)

'''Reduce animation duration scale'''

This will speed up everything and improve battery life just a bit.

And that's it from me, if I remember anything else, I'll make sure to add it, and please make sure to tell me anything that works for you, I'll happily add it.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] evanB70:
If you want to get absolutely the best battery life out of your device, you must install a custom kernel. I'm using Fenix currently.

Also, turn off printing service. This idiotic thing is turned on by default. It keeps sucking battery for no reason at all. I'm not using stock ROM now but you can find it by going to: Settings>Bluetooth & Devices (or something similar)
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] FranzScarrey:
Can you post the link of the thread for enabling dark mode I would like to try that.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
Another tip - switch to airplane mode, mobile network is one of the biggest battery consumer.. :)

But seriously, how does greyscale mode save the battery? Instead of glowing one of the subpixels for displaying a color, all of them must be shining to provide different shades of white color. It might even use more power.

Width change and animation duration scale have some very interesting thinking behind them, it will have absolutely no impact on the battery.

Dudes, just enjoy and use the phone. Why do you want to cripple your experience just to gain extra few percents of battery per day? If you're living of the grid, there are much better phones for such a lifestyle.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] RizwanH20:
There's an XDA article comparing battery saving with AMOLED on black and grey theme, you might want to check it out, or you can also watch a video by Mrwhosetheboss to see how it went for him. As for animation speed and DPI, they have the least effect on battery life as I've stated above. Kindly do some research before you start making claims.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] RizwanH20:
It requires you to have Magisk tho.
[Xiaomi Mi A3 Guides, News, & Discussion] _mysiak_:
Where exactly in the article does it say that monochrome display saves power over colored one? Actually it's you who started with unique claims, so please provide some proof.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] thetrickster213:
As a person who recently (and I mean very recently) picked up the Pixel 2 XL 128GB - Google Store Edition for 120 dollars, I would jump on it if the phone was not manufactured in '17. One way to check this is through an IMEI check service. I have one manufactured in Q2 '18 and it works peerfectly, no issues with the display or battery at all. I felt bad for buying it for so cheap due to the fact that an older gentleman was selling it, and the phone was basically brand new with no wear or scratches. I'm currently rooted, but that is only for Adblocking and a couple other small tweaks.

I feel like the guy who sold it never really used it because AccuBattery reports the battery has 98 percent of overall health left. I would check everything before you purchase however.

I bought mine directly from Google. It was mfg in Oct 2017. The Battery is still showing 72% and I use it a lot every day and charge overnight.

[Google Pixel 2 XL Questions & Answers] gman88667733:
I would say it is.

Mine has a somewhat old battery in it and still gets 6 hours SOT in the right conditions. It is very fast still, pretty much never lags noticeably.

Screen is good on mine, no weird issues that were reported at launch.

My only gripe is the lack of headphone jack and the mobile connectivity is on the poor side for me, but it could be worse

Hi

Does the oppo 5g work with mirrorlink or Android auto?. I can't seem to get it working

Thanks
[OPPO Reno 10x Zoom Questions & Answers] Ally153:
I'm having similar issues. I often randomly manage to get it connected eventually with some combination of un-plugging and plugging in my phone while my car is off then turing the ignition and usually Android Auto works fine after, but I think the problem comes back again if I reboot my phone! Anyone else got any closer to finding a fix?
[OPPO Reno 10x Zoom Questions & Answers] van_helsing_80:
Well, to be precise, I can say that OPPO Reno 10x Zoom 4G 6GB RAM variant works great on Android Auto (preloaded). I can't say for MirrorLink due to lack of hardware I own.

While in Trial/Beta version I think I had issues with some configuration of notifications (at that time ColorOS goes to DND automatically), due to which My display was not getting any notification which phone should send it, CALLS were all going silent, no info no display either!

But there have been a lot of fixes recently, not have been able to check due to lockdown.
[OPPO Reno 10x Zoom Questions & Answers] Ally153:
I found a "Default USB configuration" option in the Developer Options menu (you need to enable developer mode on your phone to see this). After changing the default option from "No data transfer" to "File transfer" Android Auto is now working reliably for me with my car stereo.

Hope this helps...

Would you consider looking at the UnifiedNlp situation (network-based location only working on networktype 2G if at all)? It is somewhat a deal breaker to not have network-based location for me, somewhat, enough that I downgraded to 15.1 today from 16 (couldn't get my head around the workarounds needed to make UnifiedNlp work on LOS16 / Android 9).

Well there are several issues. There hasn't been a release in a long time. There are PRs to support newer versions of Android but nobody is merging them.

For example:

[Sony Xperia XZ1 Compact ROMs, Kernels, Recoveries,] uhmnothanksgoogle:
Is it you who decided to include UnifiedNlp in your LOS releases or is it an upstream decision (by the official LOS team, whomever they are)?

I'm just thinking it is very frustrating to have it included in the ROM when it is not working. Would it be better to ditch it for now and add it back later when the problems have been fixed (be that in AOSP or UnifiedNlp)?

Could a workaround be included in the ROM? Something like what is done here: https://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=81427023&postcount=817 , use another build of UnifiedNlp (if I understand correctly, and if it does not involve the whole of microG with spoofing patches etc.).

[F(x)tec Pro1 Guides, News, & Discussion] daniel_m:
You got Magisk installed on the stock Android 9 ROM? Awesome! But wait, there is more! ?

This thread is meant for the exchange of everyone's experience with Riru and Xposed modules running with EdXposed.

The installation is pretty simple: 1) In Magisk, install "Riru - Core", reboot, 2) install "Riru - EdXposed" (SandHook), reboot, 3) install "EdXposed Manager" (github.com/ElderDrivers/EdXposedManager/releases).

Once everything is set up, install Xposed modules like crazy ... and prepare yourself for a hell of crashes and boot halts ?. Since we do not have TWRP with data decryption yet, you have to be prepared for those boot halts. Therefore, install only one Xposed module at a time, reboot and check if everything is working. If Android does not boot, you can fix your phone using two methods:

Recovering from a boot halt - Method 1

The most obvious way to get around a boot hang is to 1) flash the original boot.img, 2) boot into the UI and uninstall the Xposed module causing the boot halt, and 3) flash "magisk_patched.img" and re-install Magisk from within the Magisk Manager ("Direct install"). SU might stop working if you forget to re-install Magisk (not the Magisk Manager).

The only possible downside is that Magisk and Xposed modules, like XPrivacyLUA, will be inactive during step 2). However, potential privacy/usability issues are less painful than not being able too boot up Android ?.

Recovering from a boot halt - Method 2

If you do not want to disable Magisk and Xposed, flashing the "magisk_patched.img" may make Android boot into the UI ... and give you 10 to 20 seconds before crashing. As a precaution, before you install Xposed modules, 1) remove PIN/password log-on and 2) place a shortcut to the EdXposed Manager and Magisk Manager onto a convenient spot on your desktop. For both managers, you can place a link directly to the Modules tab (at least with Nova launcher).

If things go well, you have 10 to 20 seconds to open the EdXposed Manager and disable the module causing the boot process to fail. If the boot process gets stuck again, even though you flashed "magisk_patched.img", you might succeed by flashing the "magisk_patched.img" several times before rebooting. Even removing the SIM or SD-card may make Android boot up.

If/when you succeed to disable the Xposed module that blocks the boot process, you have to re-install Magisk from within the Magisk Manager ("Direct install"). Otherwise, SU might stop working for you.

Here are Xposed modules that prevent your Pro1 from booting into Pie:

MyAndroidToolsXposed (surely)

DisableFlagSecure (probably)

Screenshot Delay Remover - Mod (probably)

Working fine are:

GravityBox

XPrivacyLUA

AFWall+
