Hi.
My wife has an honor 7x USA version. Pretty happy with it.
Only thing she does not like is very aggresive battery optimization.
Would it be possible to disable EMUI battery optimization?
EMUI disables all apps after certain period.
She and I share the locations. We are using life360 and google location sharing.
Both are turned off after some time and that bothers us much.
Thanks!
Settings > Apps > Settings > Special access > Exempt from battery optimization
Toggle "Allowed" to "All apps", then touch the app you want to allow, and choose "Allow".

Thanks but EMUI battery optimization has a higher priority than device settings. So bummer.

Sorry I couldn't be more help. I was having issues with apps being closed in the background, missing notifications, and found that solution worked for me. When I got this device I couldn't believe how aggressive the OS was in closing apps. The way I knew I had it was by checking Battery -> Consumption, and seeing if my apps we're still "Running" or "Stopped".

Long time user of Timely ...didn't need anything fancy, just a reliable alarm that would gradually increase the alarm volume and a reasonably attractive interface to simulate a nightstand clock.
Apparently Marshmallow has messed up some of the notification processes within Timely and it now frequently stops working. I've looked at the large number of replacement apps without anything really seeming to be decent. I tried the built in Android clock and this morning, it didn't alarm. I'll gladly purchase an app that will work.
Any recommendations?
Thanks in advacne.
I think you need to turn off the battery optimisations (doze) for timely. Settings > Battery > Overflow menu : Battery Optimisation

Thx. I'll give that a try.
Take a look at this thread, they describe the same problem with 3rd party alarm apps and a solution. https://www.reddit.com/r/nexus5x/comments/3t3dwl/doze_adjustments_and_clarifications/
The solution is not disabling battery optimization for the app, it's enabling priority notifications for the app.
Doze sucks, saves our battery but makes our smartphones dumb.
Doesn't the stock clock app achieve your requirements now (gradually increase volume and night mode)?

Functionally it does, however the font size is smaller and I don't care for the changing clock position on the screen Just personal preference.
I'm using timely from the day I got the 5X, haven't had any issues at all
I am using Alarm Clock Plus .... works great as always.
Using timely on nexus 5x. no problems here either.
i would just clear the cache of that app and reassign all alarms again to see if that fixes it. when in doubt clear your cache lol
Guys,
How do I stop apps from running in the background?
Check my attached screenshot of battery stats, where snaptube and beam was running in the background, although I never opened them for the day.
Is there an option in settings to do it like Samsung does, or Do I have to depend on an App ?
Thanks in Advance!

That's some pretty bad battery drain for apps that you haven't even used. You could try greenify.

Best options I'd say:
- Disable Background Activity (app info - battery) - though this may mess with any notifications you may want to receive
- Disable Background data (app info - Data Usage - Background Data) - again, perhaps no notifications
- Battery optimisation - ensure android is optimising battery usage
- Disable notifications from within the app, which should reduce battery usage though of course at the expense of not receiving notifications (could just manually check?)
Another option is to use App ops (comes with NitrogenOS custom rom) or install it from the Playstore. This will allow you to further tweak app permissions, specifically "auto-start", "keep awake" and "run in background".
Lastly for some apps it may be a better option to eithern find an alternative, where available, or not to bother with the app and just use the web interface instead. For example, I don't bother with Facebook and used Folio for a while. Now I just settle for the web interface (with messenger lite installed for messages) and have a shortcut to the site on my home screen (which you can even change the icon to a Facebook one).
Though also I see you using Snaptube (video downloader?) and so downloading will be a battery drainer too, so if this is the case use WiFi where possible.
Many options, decide which fits best for you
Great reply right here. Was just about to say the first few options as they're built-in. Good thing I scrolled down. LOL

THANK YOU! for taking time to compose this fantastic response.
Initially I was lost because I coudn't find the option to kill background activity in the app settings. However since you've mentioned it here, I checked again.
Apparently that option is not shown for some apps. But a few, Like Snaptube does have that option. For the one's that doesn't have it - I used Greenify.
Battery Optimization, Yes Enabled.
Notifications were also a good tip, Killed all except the messenger and Email apps.

You're welcome
Is there a way to have this support more than 3 apps? It's ridiculous there's a limit with the amount of ram on this phone
That's a GREAT question, and I'd love to know the answer too. I haven't found one yet though. RAM isn't an issue on this phone. Maybe they worry too many locked in memory will affect battery life too much?
Where did you learn this is the limit? I've gone days without opening an app before and when I go back to it it's right where I left off.
You could perhaps go to the battery saving menu and disable the battery saving for any apps you want to remain running. This may cause some serious background battery usage though, but It may be worth trying out. Also, try running the high performance mode. I've run that mode a lot and never noticed it causing much battery drain over the standard optimised mode.
Coming from Oneplus and using it for a long time I can tell you, the Note 10+ is probably one of the best multitasking phones I've used (including Note 9). Chrome on this hardly ever closes in the background and find it always running and available with all the tabs open. Oneplus phones can hardly keep anything in memory / background loaded for more than 5 mins but but Oneplus phones feel sooooo much more responsive and snappy comparatively otherwise.
The default for background apps is set to, "standard." Which allows more than 3 background apps.
Go into Device Care - > Battery - > App power management
Some apps may have been automatically added to sleep or deep sleep.
You can add or remove apps as needed.

After you add three to "Keep open for quick launching" the option becomes greyed out.
You're right, it's generally not an issue where apps get closed down in the background anyway, but I normally have 4 or 5 that I always wanted 'pinned' to my recents list. Not a big deal, I just found the limit strange, given the phone's capabiities and hardware.

How do you get " keep open for quick launching “ , I only get lock app instead , I'm running one ui 2.1 june security patch ” picture attached ”
Anyway you can bypass this using good lock app from galaxy store and use the module multistar and toggle on ”long live apps”

I'm also on One UI 2.1, June security patch. Screenshot of my menu option is attached. Maybe it's different between countries/regions/models? Mine is the Canadian N975W.
Edit: attachments aren't working, here's a link to the screenshot: https://1drv.ms/u/s!AqdgaMVMg2EMirgLXMqey1V1d0Gsdg?e=RGdVeX
I have three settings :
Put apps to sleep
Put apps to deep sleep
Apps that are not put to sleep.
I can add as many as i want in here.
There's an option to Goodlock's Task Changer to keep an app open which is a setting you don't have anywhere else in the system.
But i don't have that long live app in Multistar on my end.
Sorry for digging this up but do all of your apps appear in the "Apps that never sleep" list of apps?
I'm missing quite a few of my apps, aProfiles and Philips Hue for a start...
Anyone has noticed that before? Thnx
Hi Guys
Got my X50 Pro Plus and im absolutely love it!
Well, i lied, not entirely love it due to the friggin Os with all the frigging bloatware and notification issues...
After spending 5 days with the phone i fixed some of the issues related to Notifications.
So once first setting up the phone it's time for House cleaning:
Uninstall all garbage apps
Disable all Vivo apps:
Settings > Notification > Notification and status bar > App notification management.
Disable Smart notification control Settings:
Notification > Notification and status bar > App notification management > Select apps >
Enable notifications for selected apps:
Settings > Notification > Notification and status bar > App notification management > Select apps >
Add apps to High background power consumption:
Settings > Battery > High background power consumption
Enable Autostart:
Settings > Applications and permissions > Permission > Autostart

I own a x50 pro, but ur right.. I uninstalled many apps using the adb method... But one unfortunate thing about the device, as rightly mentioned by the op, is the OS.. And there is no way to root the device, at least I couldn't find any...

Kinda scared a bit to run adb on this device..anyone experienced any issues after debloat using the adb method?
Any issues with notifications? :silly:
I have debloated quite a lot unfortunately I also managed to delete some essential Phone app which made the phone crash right after unlock. had to factory reset it and start over, now it's almost perfect still hat the OS and can't get a new launcher running as they all exit when pressing the home button. Other than that it's a great phone and no notification issues so far

I've gotten my launcher to stick on my Nex 3, after you set it to default you have to restart the phone and it will stay. also make sure you have made a vivo account that way you can change the launcher anyway
The always on display only shows a notification for one app, even though I have 4 others checked in the AOD settings. And the battery optimization is preventing notifications for at least 5 of my apps even though I changed the battery settings and also used ADB to get rid of com.vivo.pem and other stuff that supposedly caused this.
Anyone have any solutions to these? I have the global version
My notifications work well.
Settings -battery-power consumption - unresctrict them
Also info the individual apps and remove the battery optimization.
Hope that helps.
TS, did the advise work for you ???
You dont need to get rid of any of these apps:
I am using Origin OS and this is how the notification works:
Setting -> Apps & Permissions -> Permission Management -> Permission -> Choose Permission i.e. Autostart (needed for whatsapp/gmail/insta etc) go thru list and select apps -> follow with "Display on lock screen" and so on.
Worked like a charm here for me.
