Though these tips are for CM 12, they should equally work good for CM 11 also.You must be rooted for effective battery management. Rooting does not void warranty. Click here to know how to root.
1. Clear Cache of Google play services
2. Download Disable Service --> go to System --> Select Google Play Services --> Search for "SystemUpdateService" --> Disable system update services
3. Go to settings -->WiFi--> Advanced from options -->Disable "Scanning always available" and set "keep wifi on during sleep" to never
4. Go to Settings --> Privacy --> enable system applications --> Disable auto start/wakeups/keep awake for applications which you do not need to run in background
5. Install Greenify and greenify donation --> Enable to greenify system apps --> Greenify all unnecessary applications which you do not need to run in background
6. Install Droidwall --> Only give internet access to those applications which you want. Do not forget to give internet access rights to the following applications to get a seamless internet profile: ANT HAL, Calendar, Calendar Storage, Chrome, cLock, Clock, CMStats, ConfigUpdater, Downloads, Gmail (or other email application which you use - like Inbox), Google App, Google Partner SetUp, Google Play Store, Google Services Framework, Google text to speech, Media Server, System Updates, other applications which you want to access internet
7. Download Battery Stats Plus Pro and Wakelock detector --> Disable services / greenify those apps which gives more wakeups / consumes more battery
I hope this helps.

"You can now disable an app if you no longer want it (but are unable to uninstall it). Disabling an app
removes it from All Apps and prevents it from launching. To disable an app, go to Settings > Apps > All
and scroll down to the app. You will see the Disable option.
Note: If you do not see a Disable option, it means that the app can either be uninstalled or is core
functionality and cannot be disabled. "
its about two-thirds the way down

It would be a good idea to have a thread on optimizing google apps which have become invasive bloatware IMO. Along the lines of gapps recommendations for battery: uninstall maps, network location, google backup transport (use mapquest). Also with play services I keep it frozen with disabled receivers since it reinstalls itself if you uninstall it. If anybody knows a good fix for that or has other info on disabling receivers that won't stay disabled, that would be greatly appreciated. Or good apps to use for freezing/backups/modifying receivers and startups. I use system tuner.
Here's my list of user/system apps that I uninstall, some listed by apk and name. This does get rid of live wallpapers and other crap I consider bloatware, definitely personalized for me, be careful. Make sure you back up each app per rom.
--(c.g.a=com.google.android, c.a=com.android)--
black hole, bubbles, Microbes, Phase Beam, holospiral - live wallpapers
Car home
c.a.providers.partner*
c.g.a.voicesearch
Email - c.a.email
exchange services - c.a.exchange
google backup transport - c.g.a.backup - has to do with setings google backup
**Google one time init - need this to only add a new google account
**google partner setup - need this to only add a new google account
Google search
google text-to-speech engine
google maps - i remove all traces of this from my phone with solid explorer
market feedback agent - c.g.a.feedback
news and weather
sound search - google play
tags - for nfc
talk - don't use it anymore,
talkback
vzwapnservice
picasa uploader - mediauploader.apk and c.g.a.uploader
android live wallpaper
google bookmarks sync
launcher, trebuchet, etc. - stock launcher unless it's Apex or Nova
SPG - bloatware
basic sleep mode apps - c.a.dreams.basic or basicdreams.apk
live wallpaper picker
speech recorder
setup wizard - there's already package installer, may be needed to add an account
voice dialer
photo screensaver
c.a.backupconfirm - has to do with setings google backup
stlsync(sp?) - bloatware
if you don't use nfc or bluetooth:
nfc service - c.a.nfc
bluetooth share - c.a.bluetooth
These are from notes/memory, but are good build.prop entries to add or change
config.nocheckin=1 (stop sending data to google)
ro.htc.nocheckin=1 or ro.config.htc.nocheckin=1
>>set your google location services entry whatever it's called to 0
some other good ones for battery, definitely check my spelling:
ro.ril.disable.power.collapse=0 or ro.disable.power.collapse=0
pm.sleepmode=1
persist.sys.use.dithering=0
wifi.supplicant_scan_interval = 1000 (in milliseconds, use ~100 min)
ro.config.hw_quickpoweron=true (fastboot)
...others can't remember
Hi,
As stated in the title, for some apps (for me it's Wordfeud, Gtasks, Slack, but I've searched and seen that other apps can ben concerned, WhatsApp for instance), I do not receive any notifications, until I open the app and discover that there is something new.
How can I solve this ?
Thanks for your help.
I answer to myself because this solved it in my case :
- go to "Manage apps" (on the launcher, left side zone, choose "Manage apps"
- choose the application you want notifications from
- uncheck "Restrict to launch"
You may try disabling Battery Optimization for the selected apps.
I wanted to remove (disable) some of the apps I don't need (starting with Chrome and Weather); however, the Disable icon on the app properties page is grayed out. I then checked a few other "system" apps and none of them had the disable button working.
Is this some new Oreo "feature", or is it Xiaomi / Mi Max 3 specific? I know that on a Huawei device running stock Nougat a few months ago, disabling was available.
(On a side note - is it possible that MIUI doesn't include "search" (for apps) on the homescreens?)
You can disable system apps by following this:
Set the language to english, go to Play store -> Help & feedback, find and open the following article "Delete or disable apps on Android", you will see a link named "Tap to go to Application Settings", tap it and the stock app manager will appear.
it's not oreo or max 3 feature, it's just hidden. download from play market - Redmi System Manager, no root requires, open app, give it permissions (if asks) touch the button on the bottom (three point vertically) press Show system apps, find and disable. I've disabled many useless apps this way
Thanks, seems it gets to the same stock app manager as the one from Help&Feedback in Store app. Also, I came across an app MIUI Hidden Settings which also pretty much accomplishes the same (and has lots of other features as well). So there is hope (until I actually read parts of Xiaomi's Privacy Policy, which made me worried...).
But it seems that Xiaomi (if I compare it to my Huawei experience) is much more stringent when it comes to being able to disable crap. For instance, I was able to disable Chrome and Google Photos, but Feedback, Cleaner, and stock Browser have a grayed out Disable button no matter what.
