I've been using Greenify for some time with pleasure but not sure I'm doing it efficiently and my device and OS is getting and getting old every day and although I used a heavily debloated version of stock ROM (Simpl ROM) my battery seems to lack of performance lately. So I need a real deal instruction to get maximum efficiency since I don't want to change my phone. I'd really appreciate any help for fine tuning in Greenify.
Not: Note 4 with stock-based 6.0.1 Simpl ROM and Rooted with SuperSU. Also, I installed Space Lemon kernel.

Everything gets old and dies including the battery in your device. Greenify will not save you from that fate. Nor will it substantially improve battery endurance on Android 6+ assuming your app portfolio is well behaved. Make sure 'doze on the go' is enabled in Greenify. The remaining knobs and dials will only yield minor benefits.

Of course; missed the point. . Seriously consider a new battery which is both economical and easy to install on your device. Greenify is not the answer in the absence of clear indication of app misbehavor.

After market batteries are often not fresh and/or do not meet OEM specs. You should understand what is draining the battery before pursuing a replacement if a recent change made little/no difference. There are numerous XDA threads dedicated to this subject.

I had changed the battery twice during my usage period but I always bought it from the official Samsung service store. However, I decided to decrease the number of apps installed on my phone. After that, I try battery life again.

Hey guys. Just saw this article stating that the G3 has less battery life with lollipop: http://www.techtimes.com/articles/3...alaxy-s5-htc-one-m8-nexus-5-lg-g3-results.htm
Are you guys running LP seeing a drop in battery like the article??
Im not on stock but I am on Lollipop and the battery life for me has been about the same. I feel like Google really dropped the ball with Lollipop as far as battery life is concerned... like they were talking up project volta and how it was supposed to make battery life 36% better on lollipop for certain devices. Yet most devices seem to be struggling to keep the battery life they had before the lollipop update. I know there is a lot of factors and development isn't necessarily going to be perfect with such a new release but still...
I get at least the same if not better battery use, for me typically 80+ hours before charging, my record, 124 hours.

One thing everyone must remember. Not all apps have been upgraded to utilize any new programming APIs, etc based on Lollipop. Lollipop under the hood is a different environment. No longer is Dalvik around. It's now ART. Some apps still do things that are only available under Dalvik, hence they do not work under LP.
Also, APIs go out of date, also known as deprecated, as OS'es mature. Apps that continue to use old, out-dated API calls, or were improperly programmed from the beginning but could get away with it in older versions of the Android OS, are now showing their issues. This can result in either the app not working at all, or the app could drain the battery.
Android apps are a different beast from your normal PC Windows application/program. They should not run in the background if minimized/when a user switches out. They usually go into a suspended mode so that they are not consuming resources. Out of the box, when an app is written, all of that handling is set up automatically. However, it can be circumvented due to someone not understanding the Android app life-cycle, or they know it and don't care, and just do poor programming. Either way can result in an app that misbehaves and drains the battery, as well as consuming resources (memory, CPU, etc). That also leads to battery drain.
So, I think part of this is Google, but I also believe that most of it is due to apps that are not optimized for Lollipop. I would like to see, or know, if these tests were run on straight stock with NO user downloaded apps. That would give us a clearer picture as to whether or not LP truly does gain better battery life for certain devices (I read that as newer devices).
No battery life difference for me.
Only difference I've noticed would be the stock LP gives better battery life than AOSP

Yeah I keep forgetting about the out of date API's but I practically use only Google Apps, I pretty much have everything I need on Google's platform. I only have a handful of apps that aren't google but I rarely use them. Still haven't noticed a change in battery. Not that the battery is bad per say my battery is actually pretty good especially compared to my S3 back in the day. Ive just been seeing other people complain in different forums. But you're right they are probably not using fully optimized apps for lollipop if they are having battery issues.

My wife and I aren't that popular, so we don't talk on the phone much. She does use hers a LOT for games. When we got our G3s, I picked up a Verizon LG G Tab 8.3 VK810.4G as well, so now I spare my phone battery a lot for music in the car, GPS, some gaming and quite a bit of TapaTalk or other web browsing. About the only time I do any of those on my phone is when I'm at work killing time sitting on the toilet, or waiting for my lunch to heat up in the microwave.
gosh one of the main reason i was going to upgrade to LP and reading this it doesn't seem worthwhile anymore. are there any reasons to upgrade to LP other than maybe material design? it seems sort to just be a ui makeover now...

ART instead of Dalvik. It's much smoother now.

Another thing to do is give it a few days after upgrading. At first, you might see poorer battery life but give it a few days and it might stabilize after that and you might see better battery life.
Also, once you've done this, start monitoring the battery section to see which apps are consuming the most battery life. This should give you an idea as to what is going on. That can help you pin point better misbehaving apps.
Also, I use the Snap Dragon Battery Guru app. That can also help pinpoint apps that might not be behaving correctly, plus it can do some managing of things to help preserve battery life. Not sure how much it helps, but it hasn't hurt, so I continue to use it.
Just some helpful hints that I've observed with this phone. I used to use Greenify, but I have found that I can get just about the same battery life without it as I did with it (at least on this phone), so I've since removed it. But, it's still an option to look at it, and it doesn't require root any more, which is nice for those that don't wish to root. And it has helped me in the past with other phones. I just haven't found that it helps that much with this phone.

Note that stock LG Lollipop builds 23A & 23B result in the SnapDragon Battery Guru app claiming it's incompatible when you go to it's Play Store page, although I haven't tried sideloading/restoring it from Titanium Backup.

Ahh. Since I haven't upgrade to LP (still on stock and happy as a clam), this is good to know.
Battery life does not change whatsoever. The display is always the culprit. Can get 5hrs of screen time sometimes 6 per stock battery.

Which is why I believe, as I stated earlier, this points to misbehaving apps that are not "tuned" correctly for LP. It's always better to just wipe clean (FDR) and then start restoring apps one by one to see what might be causing it. But also, give it a few days to settle down too.
I'm still waiting for the "official" release and then, will wait to see if either root can carry forward or else, the latest root still works on the official release.
T-Mobile users can now upgrade via the software tool on their Windows machines (not available as an OTA yet for them). Seeing how the G2 is getting it already, I have to imagine the G3 is not far behind. I'd much rather they just give us 5.1 to fix the memory leak.
I have noticed much better battery life on 23B Lollipop. I'm not rooted or anything, but for example I can listen to Audible for my daily drive into work that takes me 1.5 hours and the battery will only drop to 99%. I got 23B following another thread here, but my wife got a replacement G3 and it offered the update to 23b before the SIM card or SD card had been put in the phone. My son has a G2 that got the official Lollipop and it actually required two updates to get there. 1 just installed some system prereqs.
I'm in stock 23c and battery life is the same as it was under kk which for me is a good thing as I got excellent battery life under 12b. I'm not rooted because I want to wait and see if/when another ota comes out to fix the Wi-Fi sync issue.
I just finally updated to 23c. Seems wifi works fine for me thus far. I'll see how battery life is tomorrow after a full charge /discharge. Everything seems pretty snappy so far. I didn't even do a factory reset. Hopefully I won't have too.
We have ways of further extending our battery life now that we have root. I downloaded Trickster MOD from the play store to mess with CPU settings. I under clock at just 2 GHz and set the I/O to noop with governor to Conservative to see how it is.
Anyone else has a better recommendation or preferred thing to do to extend our battery life further than before?

Wakelocks were a major drain for me with the combination of Amplify and Greenify, I have managed to get my idle drain all the way down to 0.5%/hour. I'm interested to see what kind of effect changing CPU settings have, I haven't got around to playing with them yet.
I haven't messed with any battery saving apps and my phone is still awesome battery wise
I tried Amplify and it certainly is a good combination together with Greenify. I also tried Root booster as well to see how well it makes the difference.
This is the best phone I've had battery wise
Stamina mode active
36hrs since full
5.5hrs SoT
1.5hrs talk time
8% left
That's essentially two days usage for me. It's my first phone where I could forget to charge it overnight and still comfortably use it both days. I average less than 3hrs SoT everyday. I'd put that in the low-moderate usage I suppose

Well, there are few things that usually result in a poor battery life. First is if any app does not let your device to deep sleep. These wakelocks means that your phone would suffer from bad battery life. To check which apps are causing the wakelocks, you can download wake-lock detector for that which needs root.
You can also try thuderzap controls from google play. I prefer it over tricksterMod.
You tone down your GPU as well. At times some kernels give you a very good battery life as well. So look around if there is any development in that regard.
Conservative might save a bit of battery but it would result in very bad performance usually. If you have intelliactive (interactive is older) , you should choose that. It is much newer and gives good battery and performance.
You can also under-clock your battery consumption but make sure you do not underclock it too much or it would not turn on. Usually underclocking about 100-200 is stable but it can vary between devices.

I would not recommend underclocking. Even when I put it to 2.3ghz, it still force crashes. As for governor changes, I think that's plausible. Didn't know there's a newer and better interactive.
Edit: I tried Thunderzap, and too bad the Z3v stock rom doesn't offer intelliactive.

Wait for some custom ROMs / kernels and you'll do well.
Sony Stock ROM is also very good in terms of battery life.

the actuall number is probably in the hundreds of thousands. HTC, which is the #4 android phone manufacturer, has roughly (VERY roughly) 3-4 million vzw users and I'd say the sony is way below that. Compare that to Samsung which is in the 28-30 million handset range and the z3v is really small potatoes. Its pretty tough to calculate as sony rarely shows on the charts for handsets sold in the US.

And it will continue to be small if they don't invest in the marketing here. They need to continue advertising its great capabilities, even put it alongside the PS4. I know they've already done that, but do the whole advertising with being waterproof and 2 day battery life. Do some counter marketing against what Samsung became now, compromising external memory for just some premium look when Sony could easily do with it.
HTC made some awesome commercials before with their M7, but now they just repeat the same thing with their Uh Oh protection, which doesn't advertise much about the M9.

I'm getting very poor battery life with my Note 4, which seems to be much worse since a recent update. When I first got the phone a few months ago the battery life was fantastic but now it's almost as bad as my old Moto G2!
I get up in the morning and over a couple of hours spend a bit of time (not constantly for 2 hours) on WiFi checking e-mail, social media, etc. and my battery goes from 100% to 70%. Then I don't use the phone, go out for about an hour listening to Spotify music (offline) using my BT earbuds and when I get home it's down to 40%.
As you can see from the screenshots, it doesn't seem to be the apps I'm using that are draining the battery as "Android system" is responsible for 74% of the battery use. This has maybe 50 packages listed under it, so I think it will be rather hard to identify which one is responsible.
Any ideas what I can do to fix this?
Are you using MTK or SD?

I can't remember how to check but I'm 99% sure it's SD. It's mido if that proves anything.
I installed Greenify and hibernated a few things and that's helped a bit, although it's still not brilliant. I also installed Amplify but the results don't mean anything to me, so I've attached some screenshots in case anything stands out (more in next post due to max.4)

Yeah I've been thinking of changing ROM tbh. Something that annoys me about MIUI is it only allows you to enter a numeric decryption code on boot. I know how to set it to something different than the unlock code and normally use an alpha-numeric code but that's not an option with MIUI as I wouldn't be able to enter it!
I have App Quarantine installed so I was thinking I could try freezing certain system/MIUI apps but if I'm going to change ROM I guess it's not really worth it. The problem I have is choosing a ROM, as there's so many and battery life, whilst important, isn't the only thing that matters to me. The decryption code thing is important, as is full dual-SIM functionality. OTA upgrades is one thing that MIUI has in it's favour and I guess that's not an option with third-party ROMS but upgrades being made available in a way that they can be installed without wiping the phone would be nice, if possible. Dual apps, Second space and Call/SMS blocklist are all quite handy features in MIUI too.

MiracleDROID, give it a go, it's one of the better ROM's i have used on Mido very underrated.
Or OmniROM if you want weekly OTA (Delta updates) just like in MIUI.
And dont expect miracles right after flashing it, give it atleast 1 charging cycle to settle.
Same problem with me .. Battery temperature goes to 41 degree ++ and after night I have to see my low battery
So basically the title says all. I'm planning to use this device a little bit longer, and the only problem with it is the battery life - but I love everything else, like the display, the sound, the design. I was a wonder to root before few months but feels like at this point, at least with Samsung you losing more than you will gain with root. Like Samsung Pass, Samsung Health and Security folder. I know there is a way to recreate them but not sure is worth it all the work. Although, I tihnk is worth it to sacrifice those (but I really will miss Samsung pass), to have a better battery life.
So my question is, if I root my device, put some custom rom + some app like Greenify, will be I able to have a better battery life than now? At the moment I make around 3h of sot, which maybe is normal for device +1 year old. But I can't trust it when I'm going out. Always need to carry a power bank with me, just in case...

yes, installing a custom ROM will likely increase your battery life so as that the kernel that the ROM youve chosen is optimized for efficiency. If the ROM you choose is overclocked beast-mode gaming champion settings enabled, then no. Some ROMs are also very stripped down eliminating seldom used apks thereby increasing batt life as well. What model do you have? if its the g965u, you aint rootin it fwiw
Thanks for the response!
Yes, I understand boosting or using some modes for performance can lead to worst battery life. My device is G965F. As for now, I'm planning to wait for the final version of Android 10. Then I guess would wait for developers to update their ROMs and chose the lite one?

Youre most welcome!
If you do that, you might be waiting for a while as Samsung has been recently pushing to make root more and more difficult. If youre dead set on rooting, id do it now and avoid the pitfalls of being on a bootloader version that you cant go back to your old one from and waiting for the devs to figure out the new source code etc etc.

FKM looks good, but I believe it requires rooting and does kernels tweaking.
My cell isn't rooted, plus at this age I don't think I'd be able to root.. just a retired noob trying to learn at this age..
Probably take it to phone shop..
Plus with root won't be able to get auto updates..
Thanks anyways for the recommendation.

Never too old to learn, but unfortunately yes, rooting would be required to have that feature with FKM.
I've also used this app in the past, but not since getting the RN9P. Not as detailed as FKM but it may suffice for your needs and I don't recall a root requirement.

DevCheck has pretty good dashboard of how system resources are used and general information on almost everything.
regarding your worries of battery not charging 100%, you should be glad. to put very short what helps these Lithium-ion batteries endurance, the less time battery spends at charge levels >90% and <40% the better it for the battery

Any guide to root RN9Pro?
I'm running a debloated stock ROM.
Rooting would interfere with autoupdates.. correct?
Would require a custom recovery and a custom ROM?
Thanks.

Should be charged less than 90 and at 40%..
Correct?
Expert thoughts on Accubatt Pro?
Thanks.
Can RN9PRO be rooted online, like using TV using phone guy's assistance?
Thanks.

i suggest you do your research, or get help of someone who has done it hands-on because lot of things can go wrong if you dont know what you are doing. cant recommend anything because unfortunately from what i've seen in the forums no ROM can boast of full functionality of the stock ROM(i too hate it).
