Hey guys maybe you will know. I keep reading everywhere that Sense 4+ has power saver mode and I have seen it on multiple screenshots under the Battery option under settings. When I look under Battery on my DNA I am not seeing this option. Is this something that just runs all the time in the background on the DNA?

How can you customize the settings of it though? I had the menu in the battery page on stock, but then it vanished after i debloated and deodexed.

I must be going crazy, I had a menu button that said "Power Saver" right above the "Usage" button.
No I think you're right. I remember seeing one, which is why it's driving me insane trying to find it. It keeps disconnecting my data at night, making my skype useless (I like to stay up late). I think an update to the software actually got rid of the option. Because I remember seeing it before.
I know viper has the power saver in there Rom never seen it outside of the viper Rom without being rooted

My phone is really sluggish and slow. Ifi click the menu button for example the round spinning loading logo comes up for a few seconds.:crying:

Thats not right at all. There is something fundamentally wrong.
I would download mybackup pro trial aand take a backup of your data that you absolutely cannot lose and then do a factory reset because this should not be happening.

+1 removing not used apps and widgets makes a great difference in performance and battery life.
No matter what, the phone shouldn't act like this. Something is heavily draining ram(not using, draining) probable a rogue app.
factory reset and if the problem persist take it back to the store

One solution lies in rooting your device and installing a good rom on it.

A launcher issue based on your description? Nova launcher is good. You coukd give it a try. If not, factory reset is a good idea.
How is your setting in developer option, animationscale set on 1x?
based on the aokp rom-->http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1574718
nobody seems to have a working solution for this problem...after clicking the power button, there is a 2-3 second delay for the screen to turn on..this started after flashing this rom.
i have tried:
1) removing widgets, live wallpaper, closing running apps, etc....
2) turn of crt animations
3) changed kernel to neak for aokp.
4) i flashed UCLE5 and the problem stopped but i dont want the stock.
nothing has worked. what else could be causing this?

It's all fine and dandy to say that it's deep sleep and that it's just how the phone works...I'd just like to know why it is that the HTC Inspire's screen comes on instantly with the button while its idle battery drain is twice as good as the S2. Clearly there's something wrong with the way Samsung is doing something.

Basically if you use titanium back up, you can just freeze or delete "com.htc.htcpowermanager" and it'll disappear.
I just thought I'd share with you guys, credit goes to to the guy who found this in the link above, I'm just passing it on.
EDIT: Freezing or deleting it will both cause your battery menu in settings to disappear. This isn't really an issue to me as there isn't really anything in there that you can do, besides see whats' eating your battery. IMO this is negligible especially when new roms will be rolling out soon, hopefully with a work around.
Wouldn't delete it just in u may need it later. Freezing is the best option for all annoying system apps. Thanks for sharing the link tho.

Read the edit I just made to the OP.
In JB you can long-tap on a notification and click on App Info. I did a Force Stop there, notification went away. Hopefully there are no other side effects. If there are any, I will report them.
LOL 5 minutes later, and it's back. And you cannot uncheck "Show Notifications"
I used this to get rid of mine. Think its a good alternative.

I have had mine turned off since I loaded the Rom and its still there. If we could just unlock the show notification option maybe that would turn off the one minor annoyance.
Is there documentation on what the power saver function specifically does?

Same here. I'm mostly against it because I don't know why I'd ever need it. It might actually be useful but if it does x y and z and I only want x and y I'd like to know what I'm getting into.
I can't believe no one noticed it yet but if you go to the app info there is a check box for notifications, just uncheck it and it goes away

Thought I'd share. For those of you that are looking for an alternative to the power button LED for missed notifications, XDA just featured an app called Buttonled by GermainZ. Basically, it turns your hard buttons into your led.
Thanks to ewcrider, if you prefer the red power button LED in place of the capacitive buttons, use the first file path on the list, led:red, instead of button-backlight/brightness.
Been using it for a couple hours and it's working great, so far.
Make sure to enable in accessibility.
Find the apk and give all thanks to GermainZ at the link below.

Wow amazing find. Thanks for sharing.
Here is how I set it up, if anyone wants to know. This works just like BLN.
Pick the /sys/devices/platform/msm_ssbi.0/pm8921-core/pm8xxx-led/button-backlight/brightness PATH. (Should be the second one)
I set Turn LED on for 7200 (Which, if my math doesn't suck, should be two hours.)
Then I set Turn LED off for 0
Finally I hit, Enable ButtonLED in accessibility. (This took a while to pull up, I recommend doing it yourself through the settings)

That's about it. Basically, if I am awake I will see if there is a notification within the two hours. But if I'm asleep I don't want the capacitive LEDs on for the whole 8 or so hours I sleep. I also don't want them to pulse or turn off if there is a notification. Two hours just seemed like a good medium.
I've noticed every time I restart the phone my settings are restarted as well my brightness is always back to 100 even tho I'll have it on 50
Also my screen timeout which i leave at 30 seconds reverts back to 2 minutes and I'm not able to sort my applications alphabetically in the drawer every time I select it nothing happens
Does anyone else have these issues?

Go to settings > power saver, and see what all your options are set to. I'll bet you've got it set to turn on at 100%, screen brightness and time out are probably set like you're seeing as well.
How has your battery life been? If poor, I'd suggest at least rooting so you can turn off fast-dormancy. With your current setup I can only suggest factory reset and starting over if the power saver feature isn't the issue and you want to stay rooted. Do you have any app installed that allows profiles? It's just weird that things would reset to those extremes. Sounds like something's set to some kind of performance profile for gaming or watching streaming videos, or the power saver settings were off.
