For anyone who may use this program can you answer a quick question for me? Can I control what apps are allowed to use data? For example I have a game like Dice with Buddies. I can not turn off or control when it looks for updates/new games. I'd like it to only search when I open the app. Could juice defender allow me to stop that without disabling the app? Maybe stick it on a 8 hour timer or something like that? Just wondering

Thanks.
With juice defender you'll be able to control synching times and add apps to a whitelist.

imho its not needed on the one ... with powersaver its more than enough to get 18+ hours easy
Juice defender does you no favors. Use tasker and greenify to squeeze that juice.

For battery saving just use juice defender and greenify..

I didn't have any luck with juice defender personally. Greenify was amazing. Once it's set up, it's zero maintenance

I didn't really notice any difference with Juice Defender.
I use both Snapdragon Battery Guru and Greenify. With these 2 apps I get 20 hours most of the time with around 20% left when I get home. My CPU is underclocked slightly but my GPU is overclocked for gaming.

Good job! Keep WiFi running and you should get more. This phone has sick battery life.
Hell, I can go 2 days IF I shut everything down (e-mail, weather, stocks, just data period!)
Guys which is better???? Anybody tried out both on GSM RAZR?
They're pretty different. Like, different purposes. Smart actions is more about controlling things on-off.
Juice defender is more.. Fluid. It can add more intervals and similar things. I use both in conjunction for a fuller coverage.

i prefer juice defender ultimate for saving battery as it has much for functions dedicated for you to do so
I don't use any. I just let Android do out as the other apps will mess up your phone with how Android handles memory allocation.

yup i too dont use any apps because ICS has smarter garbage management system

Juice Defender has nothing to do with memory, it triggers data connection, wifi, brightness, background data, 3g/2g.
I think JD is much better then then Smart Actions.
I've found with juice defender and ics battery is rubbish. Take it off and reboot and its fine

Smart Actions has improved my battery life dramatically... I never have had much luck with Juice Defender. I just have it stop background sync when screen off. Saves a lot of battery....

...but JD can turn on background data every 5 15 30 (of your choice) and check your emails, talk, fb messages when screen is off. SA don't turn on background data when you have screen off for example 3 hours.
Correct me if I wrong.

Juice Defender is more difficult to handle in my opinion, but is more powerful if you spend time to configure it.
I actually tried juice defender and it messed up my phone. Smartaction is the way to go
Sent from my XT910 using xda premium
Same juice defender is awful. Really messed my phone up. I'm sticking with smart actions or just leaving it alone. I wouldn't use anything but it helps slow things down when it gets over worked.. My phone used to get hot and have a ton of processes going at once. Now it stays cool and runs smooth with it killing background sync when display is off...

has it been decided yet whether snapdragon battery guru is worth a crap or is Greenify just better at hibernating apps?
Inquiring minds...
Gunny been running the guru and honestly I have been getting the same without it on my non rooted and locked bootloader HTC and same in my rooted one so I'm thinking greenify is better in my opinion
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
I'm using greenify and sometimes it won't hibernate some user apps. I might give snap a try. I also think HTC power management saves quite a bit of battery.
Edit: just installed snap,says it needs 4 days to learn. Lets see how things go!

Greenify.
They seem to take different means to the same end, but I prefer controlling when things get synced myself. I may use Battery Guru to control Wifi or something.
I tried out Guru and to be honest, I feel like I get the best battery life with just Greenify alone. I swear the Guru generates a ton of wakelocks.
SD battery guru

I noticed a significant performance boost on my htc with snapdragon. I get 15-20% more battery life but I also cleaned up alot of apps/system files from running in the background with all-in-one toolbox so I don't know which deserves the cred.
Cons:
Wait 4d 4h for SD to learn my usage.
SD manages my wifi and auto enables it. Hate this feature at my work since we use content filter.
Other than that its good
For me it's Greenify and it's not close. I had the Optimus G a little while back and I saw minimal difference. I am using the paid version of Greenify because it has option to hibernate system apps and a few other things that aren't in the free version. Plus he is constantly working to make it even better. I think I got 2 updates in the last 5 days. It's the only battery saving app I even consider using right now.

I have not used greenify but I have used snapdragon guru. I can tell you this. My battery life improved after I deleted snapdragon guru. It sucks more battery life than it saves.

All the "battery saver" apps drain your battery faster. They are a waste. Don't use them. Learn how to manage your device.

Greenify is a great app! However why not use both... I'm currently testing the Snapdragon battery guru to see if I notice a difference. To compare the two to one another is like comparing an apple to an orange.
Sent from my HTcDNAoNE
I have used greenify on my previous phone for a while. Once I got my HTC one I put it on here also. On my previous phone I did notice slight battery improvement but nothing significant. On the one I'm not sure since as soon as I got it out of the box I went to rooting and installed all my previous apps.I did however install snap dragon guru about a week ago to try it out and to me it seemed to drain my battery quicker after the learning process. I recently deleted it but stayed with greenify.

What sort of times are you people seeing with the standby and screen time? I'm curious because with root and CM 10.2 Nightlies flashed, I am on 44 hours of charge with 3hrs 24 minutes of screen time (75%) and 3% battery left. With the stock rom, I couldn't even make it past the 24 hour mark without major wake locks and battery drain over night. I also use pandora stream with bluetooth in my vehicle for about 1-2 hours a day.
Greenify by far + framework !
Hey I had a question. Seems like when start to use my phone for whatever the battery dies pretty fast. But when I don't it seems to just stay at that last percent. Android is using a lot of battery. I asked earlier about if I removed the bloat ware if that would help. Seems it would. But what about using this app called greenify. Have some people tried it ? I've read that it causes the apps to stay in hibernation until you use them. And getting cpu tuner helps too.

Lately I've been noticing my battery life isn't doing as it good as it used to be. Nothing troubling, but enough to make me want to look into getting a battery saver.
I've tried Juice defender but it won't ask for SU permissions for reasons unknown, therefore it doesn't work because the app log shows up tons of errors without permissions.
I have looked up on Google for other battery savors but most sites say Juice defender. What else can you guys recommend? Or maybe help me with juice defender? Thanks guys in advance!

I use greenify too. Also the ktweaker app within the ktoonsez kernel has some pretty good battery saving abilities. Specifically project Icarus profile does pretty well on my phone.

I've used JD and it worked, but in all honesty 2x Battery by AZSoft works better than that. Get the Pro version so you can enable night mode and all of the features. I've tried GreenPower too. That one works, but I found that it disabled stuff too well and I wasn't getting notifications when I wanted to. I have 2x set up to sync every hour during the day and 2 hours at night. I'm also using CPU Tuner and Greenify. I'm not a power user, but I do use my phone and end up using about 3-4% per hour.
