Hi Frndz i came across this app n it really really cool... a must try for all battery savers and it works like charm
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.eugene373.cpu.sleep&feature=search_result
NOTES BY AUTHOR
### Attention, Root Required Application!! ###
What is it?
Its a fairly simple App that will put CPU 1/2/3 OFFLINE when the screen turns off. Once the screen comes back on, it will allow CPU 1/2/3 back ONLINE.
How does it work?
Since we have Dual & Quad core CPUs, we have a CPU 0 and a CPU 1/2/3, core 0/1/2/3, while the screen is off we really only need to have 1 core active "CPU0", this App will make sure CPU 1/2/3 shuts off while the screen is off, then resumes normal usage when the screen comes back on.
Compatibility?
Works with any Dual Core & Quad Core Devices!
Battery Saving?
Battery savings all depends on Usage & idle times.
Trying this. I'll post my report later.
Thanks for the info
thank y:good:
have by it :angel:

Try this bro....
Install stock kernel
Enable power saving mode (only cpu option)
Then use this app.... when u see cpu stats u will see deep sleep mode enabled instantly when screen is off....
Gives me amazing batt life n when i game i simply disable power saving mode n it works like charm...

The sgs3 already shuts off the other cores. That's what hotplugging feature of the kernel does.

looks promising but can someone report back to see if this app uses up much battery itself in BetterBatteryStats, if it doesn't ill certainly purchase it.

I have WiFi and Sync on and my battery do not seems to discharge (I don't know if it was already like this before, but it's impressive)
I'll deactivate this, try the same experience, and post a screenshot of the result
I don't really like the power saving mode, but I'll try these options
Well does it still sync all the stuff it is supposed to with this tool enabled? (Gmail, Twitter and what not?)
Its important when testing this app, to ensure you do not use powersaving mode.... I bet powersaving mode is actually doing ALL the work and the app, nothing.
OR, first use powersaving mode without the app.
What the OP is suggesting is you use the APP and powersaving mode. Well of course powersaving mode saves power (the clue is in the title) so how can anyone tell how good this app, (that simply turns off the cores like the SGS3 already does) really is?
It costs money too?
What?!

Oh THAT eugene. These threads have been locked countless times and it has been proven several times it has been useles son teh SGS3 as it already does this.
Here is our thread we already had on this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1745493
Lots of technical reasons given by a kernel developer as to why this doesn't work and even why it is bad for your phone.
Yes, but this is the best response from the dev.

It was just an illusion.
This app did nothing on my battery life, the S3 has just a huge battery life. I noticed that during this short period (~4hrs) my battery life is rather a little bit worse with this app activated.
This app is definitely useless
Thanks for reporting back, i shall not be purchasing this app

Modded snapdragon battery guru to work on almost every device ..
Snapdragon™ BatteryGuru is a battery life saver app that extends battery performance and improves overall user experience by intelligently making changes that optimize device functionality in phones with Snapdragon mobile processors. This app:
• Delivers longer battery life with fewer charges, acting as a battery life extender
• Intelligently learns how you use your Snapdragon-powered smartphone and optimizes your device without disabling smartphone functionality
• Requires no user configuration - Snapdragon BatteryGuru automatically learns and adjusts the smartphone settings so you don’t have to
After a brief 2-4 day introduction period, Snapdragon BatteryGuru learns the user’s behaviors and then notifies the user that it is ready to extend the battery life and improve the experience. Snapdragon BatteryGuru continues to operate in the background, deepening its understanding of the user and further optimizing the experience over time.
Snapdragon battery guru is the only battery saver that learns by itself your usage pattern n saves power accordingly.

To my feedback it does plus with the flexibility of learning from how u use it..
thank ...
try it now
Well, I had to charge my phone so can't say exactly how much but it gave me ~40 minutes of screen-on time. Now with this app I may even reach 4h of screen on with MIUI ROM. Standard battery.
And I didn't even saw any cons after using it, sync working normally etc
I'll test more but I think it really does good to battery usage.
I hope will work gona to test it

So I was finally able to update to 4.4.2 KitKat by using the LG FlashTool, but now the quadcore control that was in the battery settings in 4.1.2 is missing. Anyone know how to get it back or is it removed in this update? That option was very helpful for saving battery life.

It's definitely gone but I have no idea how to get it back or if we even need it back Battery life for me has been as good as it was with 4.1.2.

+1. Battery life is quite good on KitKat. Indeed, I can do at least 2 hrs of GPS and streaming quite comfortably, when before it would suck my battery. Google maps especially...
I have noticed the battery life is quite good, but upon running a benchmark with Antutu X, I was only getting 20k, so i turned off the temp control in the service menu, forced 2d hardware acceleration and set max background apps to 4 in developer options and now im getting over 26k

If you're talking about the LG G2, this is the wrong forum. The LG Optimus G Pro doesn't have knock on/off natively in kitkat.

What do you have enabled? Maybe try shutting down Google now and location, might help some, granted shouldn't have to do that in order to get good battery life.
Might have some wake locks as well.

you wont see much or any power savings from switching to a lower resolution..no matter what the resolution is your display is still having to drive all X amount of pixels that your display physically contains. get a lower power screen usually lower res ones will be lower power and thats about the only way. dimming helps too. just a few notches dimmed from full/half can make a world of difference. all the pixels will still be lit regardless of resolution used

root and wait till someone comes up with a custom kernel. that way you could control the wakelocks, cpu, voltage, gpu control etc.

Assuming you are right, there is still much battery savings from lowering the resolution because the processor doesn't need to push as hard to drive the lower resolution.
I've lowered mine and definitely saw a difference.

Theoretically forcing GPU rendering uses more RAM and doesn't give any positive feature. In adreno GPUs forcing GPU to render UI would make it more smooth, but thats all. I suggest to uncheck it, for free RAM is always needed

It depends if you have good GPU(e.g. latest adreno) and High End phone with a lot of RAM you should check it on, if you have bad GPU(e.g adreno 200) and Low End phone with not much RAM then you should check it off

I'm writing about the LG G4. I turned it on when I first got the phone.
I always wondered why the phone lags so much. Chrome was the worst one; scrolling was horrible.
Then I tried turning it off and well... all lags I had gone away.
But on all my previous phones I had it on and had no problems.
All you are going to do is to force GPU rendering on very few app where developper has specificaly asked their app not to use GPU because they know there are issues while its on...
All the other apps allready use GPU rendering.
