a50s sot and battery life ? - Samsung Galaxy A50s Questions & Answers

my phone is a50s a507fn . rooted
before root my phone drop 1% every 2-3mins just by doing light use
so i try to root and also use various method for battery save and now i get about 8hours with medium use
i dont know if it is actually different and better battery than before or not
doing this cost many like lower resolution so every thing look bigger and some stuff can be out of the screen . darker screen ....
please if anyone can please tell me the different . i include the screenshots of betterbatterystat and stat in device care below

ok its actually better now

this is root for a50s
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-a50s/how-to/guide-root-galaxy-a50s-magisk-v19-3-t4001271
no root method
.change to Black theme
.turn off sync , nfc , bluetooth , location , ...
.no battery percent
.hide camera cutout - shorter screen (optional , simulate display with cutout , tallcutout)
.pixel off - amoled screen https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.anrapps.pixelbatterysaver&hl=en
.black wallpaper lockscreen
.turn off some unecessary apps notification
.no notification badge if you use other launcher
.battery save mode medium
.use low brightness (i only use around 5-15 when im inside , only 20-30 when outside , )
.low screen timeout
.disable app permission
.use adb to freeze, uninstall bloatware
.disable animation in developer option
.sd maid - clean up trash , may help your phone run better
.lower dpi - minium width (smaller means less dpi but everything will get bigger)
advance root method (optional , these things can improve battery but also change how the system work , could be harm when use too much , keep use them as least as possible)
.use titanum to freeze app or unistanll some unnecessary apps mostly is google apps that you dont use,some other bloatwares but you have to know about them before you want to freeze or uninstall them and dont touch samsung pay
.betterbatterystat - wakelock , sot , sensor , process track to monitor what drain battery
.greenify - disable background app
.my android tool (useful but risky , disable services ... there are some xda forums you can look)
.helix engine - cpu
.game launcher - fps, battery for game and apps
.l speed - tweak system
.screen shift - lower screen res
.app ops - to manage app permission

Nice....

Screen color profile : V3 just added (see !![EDIT3]!!)

Hi all,
Well ... I waste some hours trying to make a color profile of our phone screen and ... I did it ! I can say it wasn't easy ...
I was bored to make stuff in photoshop and have a different result on the phone screen, then go back to PS, then push again, PS again ....
Attached files:
-Graphic which shows that the screen color space is smaller than sRGB & Adobe98. We also have a low contrast ratio of 350.
-The color profile that you have to put in C:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\color
-Photoshop screenshot to enable the profile
--> When you make images modd in PS for your phone (don't forget to disable it when you work with normal pictures !), choose : menu>Display>Work format (I don't have the UI in english so I don't know the real name --> look at the screenshot), then choose the profile and tick "Keep RGB numbers".
You're now able to modd images that will appear like on the phone (not perfect but acceptable). If you load a SGS3 screenshot you will see the difference too (CTRL Y to toggle apply profile / no profile).
However, I'm using a high-end monitor which is perfectly calibrated so I can really see the difference (this is named softproofing (simulating the destination display device). Depending on how your monitor is far from the right calibration, the profile may be useless ... Try it ! or search for someone who have a colorimeter and calibrate your screen, the improvment is very great !
I've made this profile with Spyder3 Elite in a very strange way
Enjoy !
/
/
[Edit 1] Screenshot added as example : "Without profile" jpg is the one that is made by the phone (raw). "With Profile" jpg is the same after applying my color profile, and this one is very near what I can see when I look the phone. The difference is not small !
/
[Edit 2]
1) How to convert your screenshots:
In photoshop, choose Menu Edition/Assign a profile, and then choose the phone's profile. Then choose Menu/Edition/Convert to profile and choose the sRGB profile. Then save your image.
Now, posting your screenshots this way, they will appear like there are on the phone. (Depending on how well calibrated is the monitor's member).
2) If you have a photo wallpaper on your computer and want it to appear the same on the phone : choose Menu Edition/Assign a profile, and then choose the phone's profile
- For who can have a profile for its momitor, it's important too to use the Color Management plugin in Firefox ( the only one browser able to manage color profiles )
/
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!! [EDIT 3] !!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There was a problem with some colors with previous color profiles.
When applying profile in photoshop with this V3 color profile :
- Select profile
- Untick Keep RGB numbers
- Select Relative color
- Tick Black point compensation
Now you will see in PS the colors like they will appear on your SG3 !

Color Management is not an easy thing to understand at all. It can be a sbject of PhD ! And my bad english does not help to explain ...
The profile is usefull for who makes themes (it's not to implement into the phone):
-When you work on android's images in photoshop, what you see is not what you see when it is on the phone.
-With the profile you can :
--> See in photoshop what you will see when the image will be on your phone. It helps a lot ! Before making the pofile I was making changes, pushing them to the phone and then going back to photoshop (it was looking good in photoshop but not on the phone)
--> When you take a screenshot on the phone, the image is raw without any color profile, ugly ! Applying my profile you can visualize the screenshots on your computer like it appears looking at the phone. It's good to apply the profile to the screenshots before posting. At the present time the screenshots available on the forum does not correspond to reality. I will add a small tutorial to do that.
you get it ?
ok now i understood it. Im learning to make themes actually. So this wil help me

I hope so ! See if someone or some store can lend/rent you a colorimeter to calibrate your monitor. I can warranty that this will change your editing experience ! You will be surprised visualizing your photos ...
Unfortunately, monitors even high-end, are sold without being calibrated .... The Delta can be very huge !
all i see in the 2 screenshots is that one is brighter than the other
i dont get it
in 1 post u say we can view the images before pushin it in the phone
n the other post u say it improves ur viewing experience like improves the quality??
i m viewing these photos on a netbook i dont if that makes a difference
so if u could please explain me again

Color management is a headache subject ...
The purpose is to get the same visual result on the phone and on the computer. The fact is that you don't have my phone so you can't see that the second picture looks like the phone and not the first one.
Actually, your case is not surprising : in general (90% ?) netbook's screens are very bad (poor color range and very sensible depending on what angle you are looking it) and of course non calibrated. So it's not a surprise you're not viewing a lot of diference.
Even like that, if you can calibrate your netbook screen there will be a significant improvment to view photos and other stuff.
Thanks!
I've been trying to solve different looking colors problems for a while now.
How did you create the profile?

I'm pleased to know someone is using this profile and finding it usefull !
It was'nt easy to make it :
- 1st, I ran Basiccolor display calibration soft with my Spyder 3 colorimeter, on my computer screen, and make screenshot of each pattern color.
- then I put the images on my sdcard's phone
- then search for an image viewer able to switch picture by clicking a button. I found one where you can configure the button you want to use.
- then, ran calibration soft on computer, holding colorimeter on the screen phone and clickin the button just in time (at each color measure).
I will not do that again !
V3 profile available
UP !

[Guide]Make an Optimus One to fit you, save battery and get best performance!!!

Code:
This guide is just something to give you choices, anything you do it's your job, but just get some inspiration;)
WARNING!!! I am not responsible for anything you do to your phone, just try not get too fuzzy with it, or you will brick your phone!!!
Most the thing here will be for rooted phones, if something not working don't blame me, blame GOOGLE...
This only Applies to stock GB and CM 7.1 by mik_os, any other ROMs may not be supported, sorry.
READ©Up There!!!
Any extra info and apps are welcome
* - No danger, definitely go for it!!!
** - This may make your phone unstable, but if you find the solution in time, you are fine...
*** - May make your O1 un-start-able...
**** - Can brick the phone, can destroy it forever!!!
Install CyanogenMod, it will save at least 100MB of your internal storage(as all apps are on ROM, LG apps are on internal memory in stock).
Also, may do much more better things to your phone, but be careful.
Try custom kernels by franco for overclock!!!
First of all, lets start with the CPU****
Use SetCpu
I will tell the frequencies, and what I recommend for, any other advises are good, for any frequency, or atleast the major ones(122-480-600-729-768-806-864)
122MHz** - Lowest, but there are some things:
- Use this if you don't use your phone, only for rare talking and stuff...
- If you have 2% battery drops in 2 mins after you turn the screen on, this is the problem of 122 min...
- If you use your phone more than 1 time/hour (no matter how much), don't use this as min...
245MHz* - Avoid it at all costs, it does nothing good, takes same battery as 480, but it is slower, finish tasks slower, don't use...
320MHz* - This is not good for anything...
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
480MHz* - My favorite, 90% of my use, will save battery, fast response, maybe it will work as max a bit, some apps work like a charm on 480
- Anyone using the phone for anything else other than calling... this is the best!!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
600MHz* - use it if no need for OverClock, as I noticed, only Angry Birds and Facebook app gets boosted...
729MHz** - Best Overclocking for battery, will not affect any of your phone, battery is as much as 600, no way you shouldn't use it, no heat up also!!!
768MHz** - best performance without affecting hardware, it will heat up a bit...
806MHz**** - Last one that will not burn it in 5 minutes, I would not go any higher...
864MHz**** - If this works on your phone, it is 100% new and 100% perfect!!!
MENTIONS, VERY IMPORTANT: It depends on your phone, manufacture errors, your phone may go stable @864MHz, or it may not go higher than 600... mine goes at 768MHz, any higher gets me KP...
If you don't need profiles, just get No Frills***
Governors
minmax - like the name, goes to min or to max, it is horrible!!!
Scary - a modified conservative, a bit weird... try it you may like it, better at battery than conservative, worse at gaming, non-gamers, try this!
SmartassV2 - Good, try, great... a better version of smartass, use this if you have it, great for fast gaming, but not good for long use...
SavagedZen - WTF IS THIS???????
smartass - it changes the frequency very good, it really is smart, see v2↑
conservative - goes up and down in stages, not 122→729, but 122→320→600→652→…, really good for long uses and short uses, not taking battery like others, but it has a lower start when gaming, lag in 1st 2 minutes, but then it is no more lag, tested on "Diversion", a really cool highend game.
ondemand - this is what you had when the phone came!!!
userspace - WTF IS THIS??????
powersave - keeps at minimum frequency...
interactiveX - modified version of interactive, which goes to max in second... it is same as SmartassV2, a bit stabler on my phone.
performance - stays at max...
SmartassV2 and InteractiveX have build-in sleep profiles, it saves battery when standby-ing and best performance at gaming, while scary gets you best battery and a usable phone, and conservative the best performance/battery.
Next, VM heap(RAM allowed for an app):*
This will take more RAM, but will boost the CPU and more things...
On CM7, go to performance settings-VM heap
On stock ROM, install VM heap tool from the market...
Set it to 32MB*, this is already done in CM7, but on stock ROM it is easy and then then BOOSTED...
24MB will slow apps...**
48MB will fill the RAM fast, making system autokill kill too fast...**
OR just change the value in build.prop
Use a simple launcher, that may save battery and use low CPU... Here are my recommends:***
Nemus Launcher*
- Looks a bit like LGHome, and takes less battery
- Very smooth, look at the video it has on the market...
- It really is fast response and quick launch, a new experience
- Very simple, smooth and
LauncherPro*
- Very good, my personal favorite, will save battery and keep options, will need to be updated if ICS comes, tho...
- Smooth, but no horizontal drawer...
ADW*
- I hate that this is hard control, not very smooth, YOU have to chose it, but if you tried more, you will see it is not the smoothest, not the most customisable, but a pretty good combination...
- You can get used to it, but if you used LGHome for more than a month, you won't need this, you will quit it!
Zeam*
- This one gets updated, and really fixes the bugs it had... it is not an usual one, but minimalistic, like it says
- Most of the big launcher won't get updated anymore, abandoned...
- This one is good, but it is not exactly smooth, but power save
GO Launcher**
- With the right combination, they say you have it smooth, I didn't
- Did 2 factory resets because of the corrupted data after a few glitches that made me remove the battery...
- DO NOT SET default if you want this, dangerous... only thing that did something bad when I was not rooted, got me bootloops((((((
Watch out the setting you enable, maybe you don't need all kinds of gestures, anything you don't use, DISABLE!!!*
APPS TO USE OR NOT TO USE, YOUR OPINION IS BETTER, THIS IS JUST MY ADVICE:
NO TASK KILLERS(ATK, ATM, TasKiller). Use minfree, set the values you need, the other tweaks you need and enjoy!
Juice Defender will only help you... really when does it help?????
Link2SD - easiest way to manage, freeze, uninstall, move2sd, any app management that requires root, except backup!!!
Just uninstall any app you don't need!
Data on Demand - Really good, try it
Freeze system apps (Link2SD above!!!) with ugly UI and slow, like the Browser and Gallery (YOU MUST), but get a better app before that, with all those missing functions...
Replace Gallery with QuickPic and Browser with Dolphin, which is the only one with cool UI, fast startup and FULL, Opera Mini and Mobile are NOT full, but they are fast
If you want to save your eyes, use Screen Filter*
Yahoo Mail and Gmail are huge hogs!!! If you don't need instant notifications, use stock for that, it refreshes automatically when you start it, takes 2 seconds to refresh, and no battery lost...
Disable profiles in SetCpu if you don't need, that takes battery too!
Use Autostarts, this is your problem, your apps, good luck, but watch out...*** If you want, google autostarts.apk, I got it that way
Disable unused settings, never use high quality in games and apps, that are made for hdpi, O1 is MDPI...*
Don't use wifi when it is not there, just hogs battery, I know some people use it everytime, everywhere, just get it on when you use it, or if you have at home...*
GPS* - This only works OUTDOOR, don't enable it in the house
Get brightness to minimum, will save your eyes and trust me, get it to max in sun and you see it perfect, get it off when at home and see it the same...*
AutoSync* - Disable sync for crappy apps, some things just sync without working at all...
Data* also takes lot of battery(very much, actually), so disable it when not in use, if you want it off when screen off, use Data on Demand
Also, empty your screens, don't use 10 widgets per screen, I use 1 and I am happy, they don't inform you that much, you know...
*Disable setting you don't need( like the high quality images in cm7 menu, what is it good at Optimus one?), eg: I never use gestures, I type Facebook faster than making an "f" in gestures, and that takes some of the CPU, disable everything you don't need or that doesn't help!!!
Angry birds(not seasons and Rio, only the classic) has an option to disable the background, that will make it 2x faster...
Disable history you don't need, flash when you don't need...*

FEEL FREE TO CONTRADICT ME OR GIVE ME MORE APPS AND ADVISES, TELL ME IF ANYTHING IS OUTDATED, AND FEEL FREE TO PRESS THANKS!!!****
suggestion #1 - lower the font size!
SetCPU - runs as a service, instead I'd suggest a boot script or No Frills
VM heap tool - just change the value in build.prop no need for an app
SD Cardbooster - use init.d script or add your desired value to init.local.rc
Autostarts - take it or leave it, most of the startup processes end up cached and not actually loaded into memory. It will improve boot times though.
Advanced Task Killer - Most experts don't suggest task killers... they're not needed.

OK this may help, but no average user can do them, they will just brick there phone...
In thinking about it, I hate Task Killers, Androids memory management is actually pretty good. Instead search "minfree" on the Market and play with the settings. It's safer and more effective.
Task killer + noob = disaster.

Ammm....no Hogs Here on 806, running smooth and hardly made a difference from 729-806 wrt battery draining FOR ME.
just make sure u dont keep all your apps open in the background.
and About the Task manager
i use TaskKiller its got a nice 1 button end apps widget that runs in 1x1 mode. And u can add running services to the ignore list, like DSP manager, Google Services, Messages etc that wont flood the Running apps list, And Whenever u use other apps like Market,Maps or the Browser and wont use it soon again u can end those apps and get some free ram over there.
Specially after Playing some games and browsing pics using a PicManager.
Anyways gr9 Tips

I cannot recommend a task killer, everyone knows about them, but memory managers are only for root, so they must get known, I will recommend no task killer, sorry(to avoid noobs getting lower performance just because.they can't make an ignore list...)
What should I do with cache, does it speed it up or just make some stuff slower, or cached data may even boost?

I disagree saying 806 or whatever is a battery hog. there is no recommended frequency, as everybody uses their phone differently. Some may use CPU intensive apps or functions that are only good for battery at maybe 806mhz. For those light users, overclocking isn't very good, as their need for CPU is less and overclocking just drains more battery.

Nice tips matee..I disagree with your point saying frequencies below 480 drain no less battery.(have read Franco n fserve sayn d same as you ) but fore me-
With 122-729 interactivex I lose 1% in 2hours .but with 480-729 interactivex I lost 2-3 % in 1 1/2 -2 hours on standby.
And I feel no lag at all while unclocking..

I don't know what to say, the 480 and 122 have same voltage, and the battery it takes works in SmartAssV2, interactiveX is made for gaming and using it, but I don't think it will keep at lowest, I will add that interactive governors are better at 122 min, but Amy others, I think best is 480, it depends so much on the governor, try scary, that is cool.to see how the frequencies change very odd...

first from spare parts, make windows animation 'slow' or 'normal' n make transition animation 'normal' n from adw settings > screen prefference > in the end there is a setting to adjust screen transition speed. keep it somewhere in the centre.. this'll give u amazing smoothness !

I will try making this just to give you advices, but making your own choices, knowing what exactly are you doing, making an O1 just the way you want, for example I am gonna say what is every frequency good for, but I will tell you what are the risks, but does anyone have a voltage list for every frequency( up to 864, if you can...).

This was just what I was gonna do now
What I do:
1. Install Titanium Backup, QuickPic, and another browser that's meant to be kill-able.
2. Freeze Android's default browser and Gallery.
3. Set the 2 things I downloaded as default.
Browser and Gallery had been the culprits of a lot of my battery leaks for the past 7 months. How'd I know? Watchdog. Install Watchdog. It's a lifesaver.
Also, no problems with GO Launcher

Battery Life Guide

Hey I made a guide on reddit, and I should have just posted it here. The goal is to have a good battery life and for everything to be buttery smooth. I've updated it with my recommendations!
Depending on your usage and how well you took care of your battery, you should get anywhere from 5-8 hours of SOT.
1) Flash custom twrp recovery if needed.
2) Flash Rom.
3) Flash SU. (OPTIONAL)
3) Flash Kernel.
4) Flash ARISE or sound mod. (OPTIONAL) If you don't want the sound mod you can skip steps 6-9 if you'd like.
5) Restart phone. Go through setup phase.
6) Install file manager (I recommend Solid Explorer)
7) Install busybox (I recommend the one by meefik)
8) Open busybox app and update/install busybox.
9) Open your file explorer and go to root. Then go to vendor/etc. Rename audio_effects.conf to audio_effects.conf.bk and restart.
10) Install Snapchat. Yell at your phone.
11) Go to SuperSu app and completely unroot.
12) Restart.
13) Log into Snapchat.
14) Restart into recovery.
15) Flash SU.
16) Flash Kernel (just incase, probably not neccesssary).
17) Download Leandroid, Ex Kernel Manager, & Substratum.
18) Apply kernel tweaks, Choose settings for leandroid app & apply substratum theme if you want.
Rom
Stock Debloated

Custom Kernel
http://nchancellor.net/Kernels/angler/7.1.1/Personal/ would be the best for battery life + performance or you can use franco/ex kernel but I didn't like either of those as much as Nathan's.

Sound Mod (Optional.. uses more battery): ARISE
Kernel Tweaks:
I would just use whatever nathan has as defaults for his kernel. If using a different kernel, I recommend using hawktail 1.2 gov profile.
Here are the additional tweaks I personally use.
CPU: Hotplugging: Enable msm_hotplug.
GRAPHICS: MAX GPU Freq: 180. If you play games that max out the gpu, you might not want to mess with the gpu freq.
MEMORY: zRAM disabled; UKSM DISABLED.
MISC: I/O SCHED MAPLE; READAHEAD 2048; VIBRATION 25%. Wakelocks I have enabled are: Sensor_ind, Bluedroid, msm_hsic. Cubic for TCP algorithm.
EX KERNEL SETTINGS DISABLE CHECK FOR UPDATES.
Leandroid Settings:
Disable: Wifi, Bluetooth, Network Location, GPS Location; Switch Cell data to 2g*
* Turning cell data off or to 2g makes ok google hotword when your screen is off kinda slow.
APPS THAT USE LESS BATTERY THAN WHAT YOU'RE USING:
Battery Saving Browser: Tugabrowser Turn on battery saver in settings. Uses 1/2 - 1/3 battery than what chrome uses.
Makes screen use less battery at low battery: Monochrome
Turns off % of pixels, saves battery: Pixel Filter
Facebook lite: Less annoying facebook
Facebook messenger lite: Less annoying facebook messenger
GLTOOLS: Used to make snapchat less laggy
Apply these changes to the settings of Snapchat in GLTools;
Enable custom settings for this app -> On
Force 16 bit rendering -> On
Optimize GLSL shaders -> On
Enable texture decompression -> Disable
Enable texture recompression -> Disable
Downscale textures -> Limit to 256x256 (If pictures or text become pixelated, change this to Disable)
Restart Snapchat
System Tweaks:
ENABLE DEV OPTIONS BY TAPPING ON BUILD NUMBER A BUNCH OF TIMES. UNCHECK Automatic system updates in developer options.
You can try this too, but personally I don't use it: https://forum.xda-developers.com/an...od-ultimate-performence-blazing-fast-t3482317 Flash the kernel again after you flash this.
Other than that enable amoled black themes in apps that you use.
Here are a few nice apps to have:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.phoenixstudios.aiogestures&hl=en - can enable full immersion mode, works pretty well.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.noxx.apm&rdid=com.noxx.apm - makes it so you can reboot to recovery easy pz.
ZSL Camera Faster camera.
Accubattery - Measure your battery stats and health.

I usually leave pixel filter off during the day, and just use it at 50% at night to make the screen a bit more dim. If I know I'm not going to be able to charge my phone for awhile, I'll use it during the day as well.
To use Nathan's defaults, do I just wipe settings in EX Kernel Manager and reboot? My hotplugging setting does not have msm_hotplug, only lazyplug. Is that the same? Thanks for sharing your tips.
Flash kernel have been updated and now have lazyplug in place of msm_hotplug. I am not sure if its not working or something but with lazyplug enabled, I still see all the cores running all the time vs msm_hotplug, I would see half the cores inactive when I am not using the phone heavily.
Would lazyplug be better than msm_hotplug?

Why i understand it should be better to use lazyplug. If I understand the guys in Flash's thread.

What I understand different between those 2 hotplug was...
1. MSM_Hotplug - Some core are offline and become online when above certain value
2. Lazyplug - All core are online and it will only offline when below certain value
@Secretcow hey mate ! about this >>GRAPHICS: MAX GPU Freq: 180. If you play games that max out the gpu, you might not want to mess with the gpu freq. < about this i never game, so if i set it to 180 , do i have to tick the reboot circle yes?
because it is greyed out along with the other gpu settings.
and one more thing, is it safe to have these >> MEMORY: zRAM disabled; UKSM DISABLED. disabled ? which one is the one that affects data from the storage? i wouldnt want to mess with that x.x

https://drive.google.com/drive/u/0/folders/1RiBJVEj4Y2aBnGQFwa7fhpDMPJOYOrsb Shadow Kernel 4.7 choose settings for performance-hexa core and apply undervolt and disable f-sync/ choose permissive selinux (if u want any magisk module)
Apply those settings in darkness app for gaming
Turn off arch power
Change both thermals to 80 Celsius
And happy gaming!
Small update: if any1 want vulkan api (cuz some apps support that API ofc) use the guide to enable it vulkan api activator etc
Also I added some photos to check battery usage too it was 4 hour of gaming 1 hour lost as u can compare cuz from one restart I had to do cuz forgot to enable my sound mods on magisk xd

Thanks for the advice. I read somewhere that disabling f-sync causes instability and some issues. If I skip disabling f-sync and leave it as-is and apply all other settings, will it still be fine?
@habitbuilderwarrior yes you can leave it on but here no problems cuz never had a random reboot to loose data etc its up to u
I don't play games, but love performance for daily usage too. Have undervolting improved battery backup during gaming too?

Yea its for daily too no worries just enable the arch power maybe it will help a little

Average usage w.o games its 10-13% per hour depending how old its your battery meanwhile I play rules or survival max settings I get minimal heat and no lags at all and battery consumption its 16-17 per hour

Battery saving tips

I am only getting 4 hours screen on time so I have begun to make battery saving choices on my phone and I want to share them with you.
I am using latest AOSIP ROM and just minutes ago changed to Sphinx kernel in hope of improving battery. For some reason Android system uses about 16 % of my battery.
Battery saving app choices with AMOLED screens:
Kiwi browser (night mode makes the app black and also changes the site backgrounds black. Also you can move address bar to bottom)
Vanced black youtube (can be installed via Magisk)
AOSIP completely black system theme
Business calendar (black background)
Pocket casts (black podcast player)
Change whatsapp background to black
I don't install apps like Facebook that run in the background and poll the internet constantly in hopes of saving battery.
I am coming from Xiaomi Redmi 4X with fantastic battery life so this has been a bummer.
I really like AOSIP and wouldn't want to change. Other people don't complain about it's battery so I wonder why Android system uses so much battery. I hope the new Sphinx kernel helps me.
Change to Sphinx kernel and install of Magisk module LKT with battery profile improves dramatically my battery life and I haven't seen any side effects.
73 % battery remaining after a day. Screen on time 1 hour and 45 minutes with light usage of WhatsApp and browser mainly.
Edit: 49 % remaining after 3 hours 52 minutes SOT. Very happy with the phone now!
