Ultra power saving mode different text app?? - Sprint Galaxy Note 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is it possible to use a different text app in ultra power saving mode, I'm running alliance custom rom and I use textra as my text app, I have disabled the default samsung messages app so if I use ups mode I have no text

Samsung can promise that their own apps are energy efficient, because they designed their apps in-house. If people could choose any app to use in ultra power saving mode, that goes out the window - and Samsung doesn't want to deal with having to convince average users that ultra power saving mode isn't saving power because of third party battery hogging apps.

Tips for optimizing battery performance

Some functions in your smartphone consume more battery power than others. Here are a few tips on how to reduce your smartphone’s battery consumption:
1- Lower the screen brightness level and set a shorter screen timeout.
2- Turn off functions when you’re not using them, for example, Bluetooth™, Wi-Fi®, and GPS.
3- Turn off automatic sync of email, calendar, contacts, and other applications. Instead, manually update these services when you need them.
4-Some applications consume more battery power than others. For example, games, the video player, and web browsers.
5-Live wallpapers consume more energy. Switch to a static wallpaper and start saving battery power.
6- Check the signal strength. In areas with poor or no network coverage, your smartphone frequently scans for a network connection, and this consumes battery power. Switch to Airplane mode if you know that you won’t be near a mobile network for a while.
7- Some downloaded applications can drain the battery with processes running in the background. If you’ve installed applications that you no longer use, it’s better to uninstall them.
8- Some widgets use a lot of data traffic and therefore use a lot of battery. You can either uninstall or stop the widget or application to prevent it from draining the battery.
[Extended Standby Mode]
Extended Standby mode helps you save battery power by pausing your activities until you start using your smartphone again. When you haven’t used your smartphone for 15 minutes, Extended Standby mode starts saving power. When you start using the device again, all functionality automatically returns to normal.
This is how Extended Standby mode affects your smartphone:
- Most apps go to sleep, and their Wi-Fi® and data connections are temporarily turned off.
- Apps stop syncing and notifications don’t show.
- The battery light only lights up to warn of a low battery.
- Data streaming is not affected, for example, streamed music continues to play.
- You will still receive calls and text and multimedia messages.
- You’ll receive notifications from the Sony™ calendar and alarm signals.
-The music or Walkman player and FM radio will work normally.
- Downloads and uploads in progress won’t stop until they are completed.
Extended Standby mode is activated in Settings > Power management.
Enjoy your phone.

Note 7's settings App power monitor "Save Power" feature vs Greenify Agressive Doze?

Note 7's settings App power monitor "Save Power" feature vs Greenify Agressive Doze?
Can anyone tell me if App power monitor "Save Power" feature is more or less efficient than Greenify with Aggressive doze? If the battery settings power save features are better I'm just going to uninstall Greenify. Any data on these two battery optimizing options?
Depends which battery save feature you use.
When I used greenify it had to be configured just right before it would work. Power save just allows you to click it. They pretty much do the same thing. I have had better luck with power save mode though.

so you uninstalled greenify? I feel like samsung's app power optimizer is almost a set it and forget it type thing now that I'm learning that Doze is automatic on Android 6. however Greenify's aggressive doze shortens the time the phone goes into Doze mode.... i'm really conflicted

Greenify

I'm using Sultan's CM13 and new to using Greenify as I just bought the donation package but have some questions that I'm not sure about.
1. I have instant messaging apps (Whatsapp and WeChat) and games on my phone, when I finish using the app, I press the home button and have them running in the background, does that uses more battery or do I need to add the apps to the hibernation list?
2. Should I use hibernate or shallow hibernation as I switched from iPhone to OnePlus 3 and on the iPhone when I reopen the app, it will return to where I left it.
3. I have enabled aggressive doze so that it will go to sleep mode when the screen is off, will I get delay Whatsapp and Wechat messages or do I need to add it to the whitelist so notifications comes instantly when I receive them?
Many thanks!

Start apps after ultra power saving mode

Is it possible, that apps which are closed by the ultra power saving mode will be started after leaving the power saving mode?
For example: After power saving WhatsApp isn't started anymore and I don't get any messages till I manually open WhatsApp.

Try this https://forum.xda-developers.com/lenovo-p2/how-to/solution-notifications-t3599741
It seems to be not a problem with mobile data or doze.
I have set the apps which should start after the ultra powersaving mode to the white list. But WhatsApp is always closed after the powersaving mode. (WhatsApp was running before entering the ultra powersaving mode)
I get the messages when leaving ultra power saving mode. Using it every night, so it's checked.

The problem is, that I don't want to root my device at the moment.
But root seems to be the best way.
Thanks :good:

Is there anyway to add app to Power Saving Mode in Note 10+

I have tried to root and use UPSM manager to add app to power saving mode. When I choose apps and click save, it said saved successfully but when I restart and go into power saving mode, I cannot see all what I have chosen, still the limited default apps shown and I still have to choose again which app I want to use and I cannot add more than what they allow there. (If you want to add more, you will have to remove the current in the list and get space for new one )
Is there any other solution that works ? Thank you !
Maybe bixby routines?
how will I add app in bixby routines and will that still work in Maximum Power Saving mode in note 10+ ?
I don't let bixby run, lol read it's eula.
Just know from what I see here that's it's pretty capable.
There's also the Macrodroid app, it may be able to do that.
You know that going into max power saving mode really screws up the display settings when you come out of it? It does on my version, that glitch may have been corrected.
I checked Macrodroid and looks like it is an app for automation. Still cant figure out how that will be able to serve my purpose to add more app in power saving mode ?
(If power saving mode could help me to save battery while I still can use all the most frequent apps I need, then I don't bother coming out of it, and so the display etc.)
You want a custom app list for the power saving mode.
Both Bixby and Macroandriod are for setting up routines. Both use a fair amount of battery.
Beyond that the other issue may be dependencies that the apps you want to run need apks that are deliberately shutdown to conserve power in the maximum power savings mode.
That's one reason it can save power so well.
Specifically what app(s) do you want to run?
I want at least these app:
- Whatsapp
- Messenger
- Covid tracing app (for entrance)
- Bus timing
- Outlook
- Camera
- Home camera
- And if possible: Spotify, and one or 2 apps more also for working.

It's not happening is my opinion. You got a bunch of apps that are constantly polling the internet.
I won't even let WhatsApp on my devices. As for Covid, I'm in Texas and we're already over that junk.
Maximum power savings mode means minimum functionality. A major reason you're chewing up so much power are the social apps running in the background. I have none on my phone; if I can't use a site through the browser, I won't use it.
FB, WhatsApp, Instagram, etc are all data miners and not to be trusted.
My SOT ranges from 7-13%@hr in Optimized power setting. >.5%@hr at night with tap on AOD with phone/internet connected on my N10+'s.
These devices are also heavily optimized so it's more than just not having the social media apps.
I tried power saving with all these apps mentioned above (when I need some app I just use edit button then edit and remove one app to get space for other app in power saving mode) and I have my phone lasting from 8am to mid night. So good enough for me I believe. Now I only need a way that I do not need to remove, add them
Any body has a solution?
