Great App

I´m sorry you didn´t update for so long. I´ve been playing around with the options and it´s amazing. I think it´s a bit hard to understand all the options, but after a while it´s very powerful.

I´m using SGS and for Sidekick install I needed to check the Debug option in the USB menu.

Thanks.

Cool concept you got going on. Working just fine on mine

HTC sensation 4G

S-OFF clockwork

Revolution HD 3.1.1

Haven't seen full days worth improvement tho.. will report on that tomorrow evening. No boot loops or reports. But will see thanks.

Does anyone know a app, that can enable flight-mode in the evening, and disable flight-mode in the morning (WITH entering the PIN-Code automatically !!!)

This worked well on Froyo with SuperPower. On Gingerbread it does not anymore... :(

I did not find any other app that can do it that way.

Also the Feature to disable 3G was inimitably...

It's a great pity, that this app is not developed anymore.. :(

Not even feedback from the developer...
[Android Apps and Games] zroice:
Hmmm when I use superpower on Gingerbread 2.3.4 lately, it automatically activates data connection when I don't manually activate wifi.

I turn off wifi, it turns on data connection.

I turn off data connection, it turns it back on?!

This started to happen when I installed that patch to give superpower the ability to control data connection.

Any clue what I am doing wrong?

Switch on / off SuperPower

Hello,

is there a possibility to switch off SuperPower completely when it's not needed and turn it on again when it is needed?

To test SuperPower I want to have test times with SuperPower and without it (but without uninstalling and reinstalling SuperPower).

Regards

[Android Apps and Games] Aiakio:
You can freeze it with Titanium Backup if you dont want to uninstall it.

Hello Aiakio,

But this needs root and my SGS2 is not rooted and a far as I now cannot be rooted yet.

Is there another way to stop SuperPower?

Ok I'm finally finished updating the first 4 posts with the v0.61 information :)

Also, note that 0.61 has been released. Due to some debugging stuff I did, Sidekick was disabled in 0.60.
[Android Apps and Games] :
About RIL and Sidekick only supercurio told me that maybe he will work in AOSP ROM in the future. Most of developers around the SGS only are working in "cosmetics" ROMs, so.. we only can wait to CM 6.1

By the way, thank you a lot. How can I donate some euros to you? I'm student, so xD don't expect so much :P
[Android Apps and Games] SupaDuckie:
hi does this work with eclair?
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
There's a donation link in my signature. BUT, in a few days I will release a package on Market for a few dollars that will disable the ads in SuperPower. You might want to hold out for that.

Yes, it does! It works on Android 1.6 and newer. But, some options require newer versions. For example, the download speed tracker (to not disable data while downloading) requires Android 2.2. Bluetooth functions require Android 2.0. And so on. These features will be disabled automatically if your Android version does not support them.

Awesome work CF, another great and must have app. Keep up the good work.
[Android Apps and Games] mezo9090:
Chainfire,

First of all, you are a legend.. no no really, you are A LEGEND

i won't tell you its working or not but, just thinking of this idea is just great.

I've been searching for about 3 weeks now for an app to do a simple function data on/off when screen goes on/off with sheduled update times.. a very simple function but most of the app on the market failed to do it,

when i got fed up my last resort was programing tasker to do every bit of functions your app do now ( well most of them, but not all ) yet it was so laggy at sometimes

your idea and app just made my day

Oh, i have some Questions/Suggestions i want to write here:

- For example, i have SwitchPro widget for turning data On/OFF will your application detect if i turned the data connection through it ?

- like mentioned in a previous post, a helpful feature is to turn off the data in night which is done by an option for example to make shedule data to be availlable at certain intervals from XX to XX

- if you are making this application a Paid one ( which is completely your right, and i encourge you to do it ) please, consider some people like me with no paid market access or country support from google checkout ( i would really love to buy it, but how! )

- i am using SonyEricsson Xperia x10 with Android 1.6 on it, i am supporting your app by heart if i found any bug be sure you will be reported, as far you can see, i am using your app mainly for the Data and shedule features, i don't like playing with my CPU speed or so.

Sorry fro my bad English,

Motaz,

Oh btw, google should hire you :D
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Thanks for the kind words :)

It depends on which method SwitchPro uses to turn data on/off. If it uses the same method as SuperPower, SuperPower will attempt to put data in the state SuperPower wants (turn it back on or off).

Apps like SuperPower are supposed to be the single app that does all this for you, they shouldn't really be combined with other apps (conflicts).

In one of the upcoming versions SuperPower will provide buttons and a widget to provide similar functionality. (As stated before SuperPower isn't quite finished yet, lots of things still need to be implemented)

If it's just data off + schedule, this already works right now... Just turn off the screen. However if a more elaborate "sleep mode" is what you are after, this will be in an upcoming version.

I'm not sure how that is going to work out. Currently it's free with ads, and I plan to provide a paid version without ads for a few dollars. I'm not planning to make it paid-only at the moment.

Fair enough :)
[Android Apps and Games] mezo9090:
to explain it more, for example:

i want the phone to shedule data at 15 minutes intervals from 7am to 11pm, because from 11:01pm to 6.59am i will be asleep and don't want any notifications or so.. ofcourse having a full sleep mode ( airplane mode will be + ) but i do think people have emergency calls - i do for myself -

the idea is to save more battery while you are asleep because no matter how many emails you will get at night, you will only be checking them when you get up ( unless you are a vampire, we can reverse it ) :D
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Trust me, I think "sleep mode" will be exactly what you want. If not, please tell me what you want changed, after you have seen "sleep mode" in the next version :)
[Android Apps and Games] ludow:
Oh! I forgot two suggestions:

1) Schedule for silent mode (night mode)

2) All data off schedule (night mode)
[Android Apps and Games] tjsooley:

[Android Apps and Games] Jip-Hop:
Why is this project dead as it seems to have so much potential? I'd love to have this and I'm looking for similar functionality ever since I bought my first android phone. Especially the band switching would be perfect. 3G just consumes so much juice when the phone is in your pocket. Switching manually every time would be too much of a hassle. Now there is also root for the Note (thanks again Chainfire :) I was hoping this app would work on that phone as well.

Is this app still under development? If yes I've got one idea, I'm using SuperPower instead of JuiceDefender but I really miss one feature - location - it saves location of your wifi and connect to this wifi when you are in this place. This is very useful when I'm home and don't have to connect to my wifi again and again. I hope you know what I mean and really hope this app is still under development because it's very good :)!

lots of wakelocks anyway good, sidekick slower on samsung s2

I use this app ince 3 years, on a couple of devices. Did a lot for me.

since I use tasker to anything else I only use that app to manually switch to 2g/3g from a shortcut.

I am surprised to see that I have about 4min activity of spower over 1hr even if I never used it.

betterbatterystats also reports lots of wakelocks even without use, in the settings everything is disabled except 23g function, also notifications are disabled.

I noticed that if I kill the service shortcuts don't work.

Is there a way to eliminate the problem?

really surprised to find that sidekick is SLOWER on my samsung s2 2.3.6 firmware stock, avergaed 40s against 20s.

anyway I still use it, it saved me lot of battery because here 3g is weak.

So I realized you want to hear about the lockscreen popping up in incorrect situations. Here is my device info:

Huawei Mercury M886

Gingerbread 2.3.6-Oriax1.2.3 (Revokster's ROM)

Baseband 404020

Kernel 2.6.35.7-perf android@localhost#2

Build Number M886V100R001C153B870SP02

Ok on to the issue. Everytime I open the stock clock application then click on the alarm button in the lower left corner I get the lockscreen. It happens everytime. Just thought you might want to know. Let me know if you need more info.

Possible Problem

The phone was accidentally left connected to a dead USB port of computer turned off overnight. Phone was in airport mode most of that time. Battery was fully charged when the computer was turned off. Two percent left in the morning!

Battery statistics showed the two leader waker-upers:

1. K9 Mail. WIFI was probably on--I leave it when screen off, so my fault? Checking mail on my dead server and gmail.

2. Superpower!!

Superpower was also the leading draw, more than Maps, Calendar and AndroidOS, at over 13%.

I am running a CM10-Paranoid ROM on an LG P500.

Does this app cost more than it saves?

It will show up on apps such Carat or BatteryStatsPlus as a battery drain, save an hour and a half by stop or uninstalling. The BatteryStatsPlus variants will show up in alternative versions as well. Need to know how to evaluate. I feel an app like this is necessary but it might need more tweaking. I use it to cut data when screen is off and such (i.e. so Google Now does not eat the battery).

Note that in combination with OnePower (also an XDA beta), this was a huge drain, overheating, the whole trip. I removed OnePower (which should incorporate SuperPower's functions, I suppose).

Hi

I must say for one who tried almost every battery saving app such as ds bat saver, green power, and juice defender, this is the only app that actually worked as promised on my SGS2 running ICS 4.0.4 deodex root with Dorimanx kernel 5.92. Yes there still a few bugs such as data turns on for a few seconds after coming from sleep mode although data is off and wifi is on, but still it works.

Now there is an annoying bug in ICS that is not related to this app. When wifi turns off after screen goes off and then turns back on when screen goes on, the wifi stat bar indicators becomes grey with no signal bars shown, as if there is no wifi signal in spite the fact that wifi is working in full power.. The only workaround I found is to turn off the screen again and back on after 3 seconds, which restores the indicator functionality.

Any chance to find a fix for that and implement it in this app??

Thanks

Try disabling the ICS "connection optimizer". It seems to cause issues with WiFi access points for many devices.

Review of this awsome app

Hi all.

I installed this app on my Motorola droid razr and Samsung note 2.

Motorola :

Its now 4 days and 6 hours since i last charged my phone and its still on 65 % battery life.

I am making this test on pure standby testing on the Motorola so i am not using it other then turn on the display to check the battery life.

I have many apps installed on the phone which i of cause try and kill before screen off but i do have one app running in the background called Proximity Actions along with wifi as the power button dont work.

Proximity Actions before this battery app use to consume most of the battery life but now it not using any battery at all and still running in the background.

Note 2 :

I am also running this battery app on my note 2 and i am using this phone for daily usage.

After i installed this app on my note 2 i have had improved my battery life by 2x of what i use to have.

This is a must have app for all android users and it should be implied straight from the factory :)

PS. If it doesn't work on your phone then you have set it up wrongly in the settings or the phone hardware/software isn't compatible with this app but i think it most likely will be someone messing up with the settings.

All in all out of 10 stars i give this app a 100 stars :D

[Android Apps and Games] tjsooley:
First of all I would like to say that this app is rad and thanks to everyone that is making this possible.

Where is the pay version I want my ad free back
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
See below.

To both of you, as the description of the option states, only max speed is adjusted. In case of the Galaxy S, the min speed is 100 mhz and thus remains 100 mhz. The max speed is lowered to 400. The device will still scale between 100 and 400 mhz as needed. The number picked will the closest possible value the CPU can be set to below 50% of the maximum speed. For other devices, the actual mhz numbers will be different, but how it works remains the same.

Setting it lower can and does result in sleep-freezes on several devices I have tested it on. On others it caused up to 2 seconds delay in start of "ringing" when you receive a phone call (when setting much lower than around 50%). Besides, setting it even lower doesn't give you that much extra juice. I may implement a custom setting for a future version, though, the current situation seems to work fairly well as it is.

As for how it is better than Juice Defender, I make no claims that it is. It is different, for one. Personally I've had issues with Juice Defender, but I hear from many others it works fine for them, so... I've made power saver apps for other platforms when JD didn't even exist yet, just doing the same for Android.

So far there are no reports regarding if it does or doesn't work on HTC Desire. I suggest you try and see (and let us know).

This is explained extensively in the FAQ, see the second post of this thread.

Comments, errors, and AdFree

Comments

Somebody posted the following comment on Market:

"Think this is a great app. Don't like how the quick panel moves the screen up. Unnecessary animation."

If anybody has any idea what that commenter may have meant with this comment, please speak up, because I have no idea what he's talking about.

Errors

I've spotted two reported errors (force closes) on Market, both apparently on application start. If anyone who has had this problem is reading this, please post your device specifics. I think I know where the error is and how to fix it, though.

AdFree

Quite frankly I'm a bit surprised by the response on AdFree. Looking at the number of downloads, comparing those with the number of complaints or notices that a user uninstalled AdFree (or SuperPower because of AdFree), here, on Market, and especially through PM, and on IRC, then taking into account that not everyone that has AdFree will make a statement about it, this paints a very worrisome picture indeed...

I am considering removing the AdFree check, but not decided one way or the other yet. If I do remove it, it will probably be temporary.

Either way, an update should be released tomorrow or Monday, if not to remove the AdFree check, then to release a NoAds version, but at the very least to attempt to fix the reported errors mentioned above.
[Android Apps and Games] Chainfire:
Good idea.

It will use a bit of CPU when the screen is off to decide what needs to be disabled, when, and to actually perform these actions. This CPU use should not be high though, nor stay for long. If it does, something is probably wrong.
