(ICS) Power Efficiency Setting - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just updated to ICS and am wondering about the Power Efficiency setting in the drop-down menu. What does it do? Every time I toggle it on, leave the drop-down, and then come back, it toggles itself back off. I'm sure I am missing something obvious. Thanks in advance.

Same issue here.

I emailed HTC about this. This was their response: "In regards to this, I'm going to get the power efficiency option reported. In the meanwhile, you can manually turn off the 4g and autosync options, which is what that function accomplishes."
Hope this helps.

Thank you very much!

Be careful what you wish for. This may be related to HTC's "smartsync," which will prevent you from receiving emails or data messages (e.g. Google Talk) messages at night. Google "smartsync disabler" for lots of info.

I'm actually having the same problem in reverse. Ever since Verizon (or HTC?) updated their OS 10 days ago, I can't get the power efficiency function to stay *off*. I toggle it off, leave the settings, and return to find it toggled back on.
This means I can't get G4 speed, either, so it's quite annoying. Anyone else having this problem with their HTC Thunderbolt now?

Two things:
1) If you are using CM7, it is not possible to turn off BLN as of now, sorry.
2) The BLN lights consume very, very VERY little battery. As in, lets say you got a message as soon as you unplugged your phone and they stayed lit for the whole day - they would use less than 1% of the battery. So don't worry about BLN, it's not as bad as you may think.

That statement isn't totally accurate. I am on CM7 and didn't want BLN functioning. To keep them from coming on, you can change your profile settings.
Go into Settings -> Profiles and select the profile you want to change (if you don't use them, just select Default). At the bottom of this next menu, you'll see a section called Application Groups. For every item in this list, you can select it, and then turn Lights Mode to Off. This will stop BLN from lighting up the buttons.
You can call this disabling BLN, or a workaround, or whatever, but it's worked for me.

Nice, this must be a recent change... I remember there was a whole controversy over it about a week or two ago, and the profiles didn't work at the time. Thanks!
Oh yeah, I should have mentioned I'm running the 7/17 CM7. I didn't use any of the previous versions, so I can't comment as to their functionality.
I hated bln at first, but its really grown on me and now I wouldn't consider a rom without it. And agree with the first reply, basically no battery consumption.

Honestly, I think the problem is with another app running in the background while your screen is off, thus preventing your phone from sleeping. I would recommend the "active apps" app from the market and seeing what you have active at the time.
Another note: if your bln remains on while your screen is off, try opening the notification drawer and clearing your notifications. That works for me (of course, I actually click on the relevant notice usually which also deactivates the bln until the next notice comes in)

cm7 questions

recently flashed cm7. Really cool. This place has a wealth of knowledge when it comes to this stuff.
I do have a few questions regarding cm7, however.
I've tried to search, i'm no stranger to forum etiquette. the search feature just isn't turning up any relevant answers to me questions.
Is there a built in airplane widget/app ? i can only access airplane mode via the settings.
Is there a built in task manager? (does it need one) and if not, would u recommend one ? Again, accessing running apps via the settings...
Can you freeze any apps? such as "talk" "voice dialer" "voice search" "torch" "news and weather" ?
This is more of a request than a question. But I would like an optimal setting for the display, as it's killing my battery. It's almost 50% of my battery consumption. I notice it gets brighter and dimmer sort of randomly... ? i know there are settings on this, but don't really know how to set them accordingly.
Thank you in advance for any help!

For app freezing invest in Titanium Backup Pro. To my knowledge that is the go to app for app management.
I have yet to find a task manager as I've been on cm7 for all of 4 days
As far as an airplane toggle goes, you can setup the power control widget to display the airplane mode toggle...which leads me to a random question: the **** does airplane mode do?
The random dimming is cause your brightness is set to automatic-- this can also be changed with the power control widget, which is built in.
Hope this helps!

1) Airplane widget/app: You can set it as one of the options on your notification bar by going to settings, CyanogenMod settings, Interface, Notification power widget, Widget buttons, and selecting Toggle Airplane Mode. That way it is easily accessible with only one swoop of the finger.
2) Built in task manager: no clue. I simply access running apps by pulling up by app drawer and selecting running apps.
3) Freezing apps: I swear there is, because I've done it... my mind is going blank. Will edit when my brain decides to work.
Airplane mode can be toggled by long pressing the top button of the phone. Task manager is not really necessary IMHO. As for freezing apps, titanium backup pro is probably the best for that. I think an app called bloat freezer existence off market but you might have to do some searching for that.

thank you guys. Found airplane mode, but i also found the toggle to turn off data, so that's basically why i wanted airplane mode. I live in an area with crappy service, airplane and data toggle help me extend battery life... basically so my phone isn't constantly working trying to find service when i know i don't have any... as far as Freezing, i have an app that can do it, i was just curious if it was safe to do so? Mostly the apps i had mentioned above. I don't wanna freeze something, then make my phone freak out. and have to nandroid or something.
and i just wanted a faster way to reach the running apps... i'm paranoid about apps running when i don't want them to.. lol
thanks for the help though guys. much appreciated.

Where did you find the data goggles? When I look it shows 2g and 3g and it is greyed out. I also used turning off data when not in use to save battery.
The data toggle should be right there on the same menu iirc.

I have ~20 apps frozen out of the maybe 50 I have and my phone is totally fine. So long as you aren't freezing something like your launcher, you're golden.
I feel the same way about running apps. Try advanced app killer. Its found in the Market, its totally free and easy to use. You can drag down the notification bar open the app and see exactly what is running and then kill anything you don't want running. There's also a one touch killer widget.

Also for brightness control on the fly go to settings, cm settings, interface, status bar tweaks and check off status bar brightness control. Takes some getting used to but you can change your brightness by sliding your finger left and right along your status bar.

Give it a few days...the battery will get better. I would also suggest completely draining then recharging the battery until its been at 100% for 15 minutes.

Hmmm I think that is battery used while the screen locked and not in use. I've no idea how you'd regulate that other than turning the phone off altogether. Is phone idle draining more battery than your display? If so, that might be a problem.
Sent from my MB870 using xda premium
No, phone idle has never used more battery than display. So I guess that's good. Lol. I've noticed lately tho, that if I turn data on, I can literally watch my battery percentage drop. I've calibrated. And completely drained and then charged (uninterrupted) the battery.
I like cm7 though. Has lots of really cool features, but my main purpose for getting it was better battery life. ( which wasn't bad on stock) again, any and all input is welcome!
Juice defender pro. Watch it triple ur battery life.
Sent from my MB870 using XDA App
How would that help if he has problems with data on? Not with it off. Also, juice defender does nothing more than turn off data connections when your screen is off or when you schedule it to. Its much more efficient to do it yourself.
It could be a problem with the driver. I have this issue too on my G2X.

CM9 - Possible to change Touchstone Charge Behaviour

Hi all,
When I charge my HP TP running CM9 nightly, a clock screen is displayed automatically. I note that after my screen time out period of five minutes, the screen does power off, however when I wake up in the morning the screen is on displaying the clock screen - I guess email or some other notifications turn the screen back on.
Basically, can I change the behaviour so that when I put the TP onto the Touchstone, nothing special happens and this clock isn't displayed? I have an app that switches the screen off when the case is closed, and essentially this charging behaviour is interfering with this. I don't want the TP clock blazing away lighting the screen up all night.
Thanks,
Andy
Wow some refuse to do any work on their own....
If you want to shut the screen down all you have to do is hit the power button and the screen shuts down
As far as the Desk Clock app... You simply go into app manager and clear the defaults for it

I'm puzzled by your sarcasm - no, I can't figure this out by myself as I can't identify the configurable part of android that triggers this clock front end. I had Googled it but I can't find a suitable answer there either. Whilst I can shut the screen off with the power button, as per my original post when I wake up in the morning the screen has come back on.
Cheers!

Then you have something installed waking your TP that we have no way of troubleshooting without some type of log.... when you shut the screen down there is no reason for Android to turn it back on unless YOU have EXPLICITLY given an app YOU installed permission to do so. As far as the clock... when you set the TP on the Touchstone one of two things happens... a dialog box comes up with the apps that can by default be activated when placed on Touchstone OR YOU HAVE designated a default app to do this....
Now if YOU can't remember which app YOU ALLOWED to run then you have one of two choices.... go through all the apps in app manager clearing all defaults OR wipe all data and start from scratch and pay attention to what you press this time

Thank you for your reply, but unfortunately you are wrong.
I only have the clock app installed that triggers when the device docks - no other apps respond to this event, therefore when I dock the device I don't get presented with the option/choice, it just displays the clock as there is no alternative. I've found the best solution to be to install 'Screen Off ' from the market. This has an option to act on the dock event, and now when I put the device on the dock I get given the choice as to whether to show the clock or to power off the screen. This works pretty much perfectly, and without the clock showing the screen stays off, instead of coming back on randomly after I shut it off - therefore, I don't think that the clock was coming back on before due to notifications from apps/emails, but be cause the clock app itself was triggering - possibly when the device reaches full charge or something and temporarily disconnects from the dock or something, I don't know. In summary, you need more than one app installed that is coded to respond to the dock event, otherwise when you dock the device android just defaults to the dock event and powers the screen back on periodically. I have never explicitly enabled this behaviour, and without installing another app it seemingly cannot be changed or disabled.
I thank you for taking the time to reply to my post, but I think you should learn something from this thread - just because a problem may seem to be user error doesn't necessarily mean that it is - your post is completely wrong which is fine as I appreciate that you are just trying to help, but by getting all aggressive over it you've just ended up looking a little stupid. The forums should be all about helping people, not ridiculing them - hopefully this post will serve to help anyone out with a similar predicament.
Cheers.
Ignore cdzo72 - he's one of the most sarcastic members of this forum. He seems to have a hate on for anyone who has an issue with anything, and can't solve it for themselves. You get used to him, and ignoring him.

The clock app doesn't trigger itself. Mine charges all night and never turns back on. That said, it is almost impossible to move the pad while it's on the TS without charge disconnecting and reconnecting. And that will trigger the clock app. So, if you have the TS on an unstable surface that allows ir to be inadvertently "jiggled", that could cause the clock to turn back on.

Hey Man,
I don't know if it affects other devices to be honest. On my phone the clock app is configurable, but on my Cyanogenmod9 HP TP tablet it isn't something that you can change the behaviour of (if you tap the stock 'Clock' app it just locks the screen and displays a clock, you cant set any options like on my SGSII). I don't know if this is a feature of tablet OS'es in general, or just the CM iteration of Ice Cream Sandwich.
Either way, the 'Screen Off' app references working with a number of docks (blurb specifically references Sony ones) so I'd give it a shot and hopefully it will work for you.
I had that problem too, it was very annoying. I installed dock no op from the market and it finally stopped waking me up. That seems like the only option since cm9 doesn't let you set the dock behavior.

What happened to the power saver settings? Gone after OTA ICS

You know, in the Settings/Power you could set Economy/Power Saver mode. All that is gone in ICS. As if the battery life isnt already bad .... Any alternatives?

You can also use Minimalistic Text to create a widget that links to the power saving settings. Unfortunately the settings don't work as my wifi would never turn back on after waking the phone, I had to constantly restart my wifi everytime I picked up the phone. And the settings there are minimal, not like before where you had more choices. I had to reverse all the settings then uninstalled the app, it never helped save any battery at all.

Those settings only take effect when the battery drops below some (unknown) per cent. At least, that is my understanding.
Yea, I don't see an area where I can set a percentage to which power saver options activate... What gives HTC? Stupid to get rid of that feature even if I never really needed to use it tell now.

Speaking of power saving, does anyone else notice that since ICS, the backlight does not return to normal brightness after exiting camera application? You have to turn the screen off via the top button then back on to return to normal brightness.

On my Note it appears to be a TouchWiz problem. I do not have the lock screen enabled as my phone never leaves my side. From sleep it takes approx. 1 second to wake if i press the power button when using TouchWiz. It wakes in less than half a second when i use SSLauncher or Nova!
Not using touchwiz. Nova launcher instead. Still get crazy lag. Seems its across all Note 2. Hoping for a fix.
I was browsing the n7100 forums and someone there asked the same question. A lot of people said that the lag was because of the phone coming out of deep sleep so the only way to fix the lag would be to keep some app running in the background that keeps the phone from sleeping. The only problem with that is that your battery life won't be as good.
why not just download voltage control or similar app and raise the minimum clock speed?
I have no lag at all. My note 2 is faster then my g3

It's not lag so much as it is a delay. On my Razr, there's no delay between pushing the power button and the screen coming on. There is a delay on the Note 2 of around a second between pushing the button and the screen coming on.
I don't think it's the lockscreen. I don't see a difference when I turn it off. My guess is the little bit of lag is for hardware reasons.
I've read that this is due to S-Voice waiting for input before the screen completely wakes up. Go into S-Voice and find the setting to wait for input on wake or something similar and turn that off. Lag should be fixed...dont have the phone yet and already giving advice, lol.

I thought this was generally accepted to be due to the phone entering a deep sleep and shutting off the CPU cores, thus the delay in waking up the processor and thus the display.
Will do further testing around forced wake locks and hold cpu states.
i disabled the lock screen...so much better! this phone does not pocket dial, so its not needed anyway imo.
