What exactly does that feature do on an individual app? Security apps like cerberus recommend not using it.

During Doze mode (this kicks in when you've not moved or used the phone for a period of time, such as overnight when it's left alone) stops apps from waking the phone or running background tasks, the idea being if the phone isn't being used, it's a waste of power for apps to keep going off on line chattering or receiving notifications and displaying them to the user. Notifications that you might have got immediately, don't ping through until you press the power button the next morning.
I suspect security apps like Cerberus don't want to partake in Doze mode as they want to wake your phone up every few hours regardless and scan it, or be able to download new signatures any time.
Despite setting an app to not be optimised, it still gets stop from waking the phone using alarms during Doze (alarms are something an app can set to say wake the phone up and run the app every 10 minutes or on the hour etc). However the developer of the app can work around this by setting a new type of alarm, for Google this work around is easily detected and it wouldn't surprise me if they start alerting on the Play store about apps that are potential battery drains because they by-pass Doze. Of course some apps have to, for example an alarm clock to wake you in the morning, or something like Tasker that you set to run things at specific times, so it will be up to the developer to explain why and the person downloading to make a decision about it.

That was my post in October, this happened to Tasker: http://www.androidpolice.com/2015/1...y-reasons-this-time-its-the-notorious-tasker/
It seems Google has perhaps pulled the plug on Tasker a bit too quickly due to a BETA version, but I think overall this approach is good for Android if it gets rid of battery draining apps, which usually are up to no good downloading ads or sending back data for marketing reasons. Obviously some apps are the exception to this like Tasker, which will need this exception to continue working correctly, as otherwise it will be restricted to one wake-up every 15 minutes only when the phone goes into doze mode.

Interesting reading. The question is why they even allow apps to use permission for ignoring doze, whe it most liley means ban in Play Store. Should be available to system apps only.
Note: Google Play policies prohibit apps from requesting
direct exemption from Power Management features in Android 6.0+ (Doze and App
Standby) unless the core function of the app is adversely affected.

Now the question is what authority can JUDGE whether certain app needs it or not.
Hello
By following many, many XDA forums, downloading/ buying apps, trial and error, advice, ect. I think I may have a solution to the battery drain some of us experience with our devices. I feel confident my process applies to most phones running Nougat.
*This procedure will also cover most Android devices running 6.0 and up.
This guide is on the assumption you are rooted, and removed all bloatware. But may help some for the non-rooted idk.
*Create a Nandroid backup...Reboot.
*Delete any battery saving apps/ task killers/ antivirus apps.
1. Disable Wi-Fi. (You can re-enable later) Personally, I leave it disabled until needed.
2. Clear data in Google Play Services, Google Maps, and Google Play Store.
3. Go to Settings> Power> Battery Optimization> Reset App Preferences...Reboot.
4. In Settings, turn off Body Sensors, Bluetooth, Vibration, Location, Auto Sync, disable 'Backup and Reset'. (You can enable later)
5. Delete/ disable all apps you do not use. Less apps means less background operations while idle, a good thing. Delete Facebook/ Instagram/ Twitter apps, Viber, Whatsapp, and any other known battery hogs. (You can download again them later)...Reboot.
6. Follow this link. Thanks @MeggaMortY !!! The link cuts down some of the wakelock/ chatter/ cpu usage during idle.
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-3/how-to/guide-stop-google-play-services-t3549760
Follow the steps he has provided. I personally used MyAndroid Tools Pro for disabling Services and Broadcasts.
Next...
*Download App Ops from PlayStore. Open App Opps, and scroll down to Google Play Services. Select 'Prevent Phone from Sleeping' -Select 'Ignore'...Exit App Ops.
*Download Greenify from Play Store.
Using Greenify settings, select:
1. Shallow Hibernation, and Automated Hibernation.
2. Greenify System Apps (Requires Donation Package)...Exit Greenify.
*Download ForceDoze from Play Store.
*Personally, I use ForceDoze. (Try using your personal doze app if you wish).
In ForceDoze settings select:
1. 'Turn off ForceDoze While Charging'.
2. 'Ignore Lockscreen Timeout'.
3. 'Disable Wi-Fi during Doze'.
4. 'Doze delay '0' seconds'.
5. 'Disable Motion Sensing...Exit ForceDoze'.
*Return to phone settings, go to Power> Battery Optimization> All Apps list. Select ForceDoze, Greenify, App Ops, MyandroidTools, (Or whatever app you used to disable your services) as 'Do Not Optimize'.
Reboot to recovery (Also assuming you are using TWRP).
Select 'Advanced Wipe'.
Wipe 'Dalvik/Art Cache' and 'Cache'...Reboot.
Charge to 100%.
Remove charger. Let idle for 6+ hours minimum let to your battery monitor (BBB or GSAM, ect) have a good look. You can trim the excess fat afterwards...Then slowly add your social/ email/ sports/ weather/music apps. I would suggest you use your browser instead for these things. (Less battery stress during idle).
I also keep sync off, and manually sync, and only use Wi-Fi / Location/ Bluetooth when needed. (Optional, but saves battery)
**After you see your improvement, feel free to try out the device settings/ apps that balance functionality with battery savings!
*Mileage may vary depending on how many apps/ settings you have enabled (smartwatch, Facebook, ect. The less apps/ settings running, the better).
Sorry for the length. but I wanted to make this easy to follow.
Hopefully, this at least reduces some of the drain. Let me know.

I would suggest all the steps except the cache wipes in TWRP. Remove Whatsapp, Facebook, Twitter, ect. Disable google Now, Google Drive, Google Photos, (You can connect them later).
You want the minimum of apps interfacing with Google Play Services/ Android system during your first idle run.

Give it a go with what you have installed. Preferable if you disable the Twitter apps, and re-enable them later.

My personal experiences taught me Google Play services is not broken, nor is Android OS. It's the inefficient way that apps send/ receive data, take constant analytics, perform background tasks, pushing notifications, ect. Then, Google Play services must tend to these apps, plus do it's own tasks, send/ receive data, analytics, and Android OS tries to keep it all together.
(It reminds me of Windows 10 high cpu/ disk usage while idle before I hardened it from Microsoft servers as best I could).
All of those processes hammer away at your cpu, and kill your battery while you sleep a little at a time. Or a lot.
I have no idea how to read a Logcat, and this will probably be seen as overkill to some, but my results speak for themselves.
Try it. You can always download apps after you see your result. Good Luck.

I would guess to say Samsung apps, Notification pushes, scanning for updates, ect. This looks like the behavior of Android dealing with multiple apps sending/ receiving data (Anaylitics, polling, crash reports, ect) causing the wakeups. My way (Unscientific) is to delete/ disable them all, and add them one by one, until you notice this behavior again. (Takes days of installing, and many idle runs).
Or, you could post the BBS idle dump (At least 6 hours idle) on the XDA Better Battery Stats forum, and let one of the guys take a look. They will tell you the offending app/ process far quicker.
But, at 1.0 drain per hour, you may be on the verge of 0.8-0.5 per hour idle drain (Or better). Wi-FI off will do even better. Simply engage Wi-Fi when you need it.
If you can, make a backup of your current setup, if something goes wrong, you can always revert back to it and start over.
Everything else looks great for a non-rooted device.

How would i be able to get the BBS idle dump? is wifi off and having data on overnight a better option in terms of minimizing battery drain? I also know i have scanning for updates off since i deny that all the time

Click where the circle is, You will see 'Share Data As'...Dumpfile should be checked by default. Click save.
It will be stored a the root of your memory card, or root of internal storage (Phone). I cannot remember which.
Access the dumpfile by plugging USB to computer. It will be a *txt* file. It should be visible as soon as you access storage. Then copy the dumpfile to your desktop, and upload to XDA BBS forum.
For me, drain is slower as I don't have any processes for Wi-Fi running at all in the background. You should try both ways to compare what is best for you. (Yes, yet another idle run).
Turning off 'Scanning for Wi-Fi' is good. Shutting Wi-Fi off completely is better. All those little processes add up. The less processes running, the better.
You should really practice the 6 hour idle runs, as more process come to the forefront in longer runs. Sometimes, extra idle drain from processes kick in after 3-1/2 hours. I used to get 0% idle drain in the first 3 hours, Then android would go nuts. LockerMaster app was the culprit. Got rid of it.
Hi all,
I'm running several apps that should run all the time (AdGuard, Network Speed Meter) or for a long time (speed trap warner,...) but OxygenOS kills them after a certain period. Some of them restart automatically, some don't. Of course all of these apps are 'not battery optimized'. Is there any chance to prevent OxygenOS from killing them?
Are there custom ROMs that can overcome this problen?
I'm on the latest OxygenOS Pie Beta, but the behavior was similar on Android O...
Thanks a lot,
W
Did you try locking the app via recents menu?
Thank for the info, didn't know that.
Unfortunately it doesn't help, Adguard and the network monitor don't appear in recents. The speed trap warner automatically starts and stops when I'm in the car, i don't want to open recents manually every time.

This is not changing anything,e ven with disable battery disabled, even with adaptative battery disabled.
I have the same problem. I have not found any solution whatsoever. This is really frustrating. I've made sure apps aren't optimized. Advanced optimization is disabled. Developer options background limit is at standard. I've pinned the apps in recent apps and it still happens. Apps get killed all the time.
For example,
1. I use Google Fit to start tracking a run. Within 10 minutes of tracking, the app is closed and workout not tracked. Its not even like i touched the phone and opened other apps during this.
2. I have VoIP account setup in the default dialer. Calls come through only 50% of the time cause the dialer is closed.
3. YouTube Music, constantly gets closed if i simply pause the music. Within 2 minutes, the app is closed.
4. Trying to transfer 15GB of files through Explorer app from phone to file server, never succeeds if i don't watch the app and keep the screen on.
5. Plex gets closed and therefore my photos don't auto backup with the phone is plugged in.
This is absolutely ridiculous! Why the hell a phone with 8GB of RAM is killing apps is beyond me!
Custom ROM on the same phone, like Lineage OS, no issues. Can have optimization on, battery manager on and all. In fact, battery life is better on custom when its not killing the apps! Seems to be the only solution until OOS can stop killing apps so aggressively.

My app is not killed when i lock it in the switch app menu
There's a whole website regarding that issue on several devices, maybe it helps: dontkillmyapp(dot)com/general#user-solution
Is there a way to prevent an app from ever being killed? I have 2 examples:
1) Fitbit app (background sync service, specifically) - when this stops running, some features on my watch quit working until I launch the app and sync manually.
2) Battery monitor app - I've tried AccuBattery (my preferred app), GSam, and BBS, but they all get killed and restart, and therefore give inaccurate information. BBS doesn't die as often as the others, but I don't like it as well. All 3 have persistent notifications, so I can tell when they last restarted.
I've set Battery Optimization to "Don't Optimize" for all of these. I've tried turning off all 3 of the settings under Advanced Optimization (probably unnecessary, no noticeable difference). I've also Locked each of these from recent apps. Are there any other settings I'm missing that could prevent an app from being killed? Possibly something new to Android 11? Fitbit and AccuBattery worked fine on my previous OP7P with Android 10.

Interesting, I haven't seen that before. Thanks for introducing me to something new. All of the apps in question are currently grayed out and say Exempted, so they shouldn't ever be put into standby.
Disable all power management*, Android does fine without it. Address any remaining power hogs individually on a case by case basis.
Power management will cause erratic behavior and can even increase battery usage even after its lame "adjustment" period.
To check if it is fully disabled go to Developer options>Standby apps, all buckets should show to be in their active state (and can't be manually assigned), if not power management is enabled.
Make sure allow background usage isn't disabled on the apps you want to run.
*yeah turn all those optimizing toggles OFF.
Only fast charging should be toggled on if you use it.

How does one disable all power management? I don't see any sort of global switch for that. Turning it off entirely seems drastic, but I agree that power management is generally more trouble than it's worth.
I did verify that the apps in question are allowed to run in the background and use unlimited data.

It seems like you're setting up right. Check the Stand by apps status.
When you first load Accubattery it gives an option to disable task killing in settings, Pro version.
Uninstalling then reinstalling it sometimes works for me; clearing its data does not. I was getting the same error message until I just reinstalled it
Just don't take Accubattery too seriously... it's useful up to a point.
I'm on Pie. Google really screwed up 10 and especially 11... so yeah it could something new as Google insists on changing things even if they're already nearly perfect
If that fails check with Accubattery for guidance with 11. They are responsive to emails.
They may also be punching out an update.
Hello guys,
i've reinstalled from scratch my s22 to try to boost my battery performance. Installed the last update and all the apps that i need. First battery cycle 6 hours and half of SOT yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!
But than comes the crappy part :/ after a full charge from zero with phone in shut down mode i've turned on it and.... almost 4 hours of sot.
WHHHHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!
Anyone have found the same problem?!?
How can it be possible to go from 6.30 to 4 with the same type of use?!?
DAMN S22!!!
All Samsung's need to be optimized for best performance. 4 hr SOT means you're burning up that battery too!
Turn off all global power management ie adaptive battery. Find the power hogs and deal with each on a case by case basis.
Cloud apps including Google backup.
Keep display brightness on manual and below 50% when possible.
Disable Google, Samsung, app and carrier feedback. Turn off Google Firebase.
Get rid of all installed social media trashware.
Try temporarily disabling Google play Services and see if this helps much; Google backup, Gmail and Playstore are dependencies.
Manually close out apps like Brave browser that insist on running in the background.
Use tap on AOD.
Kill wifi if you don't need it.
Turn off locations when not needed.

I just turned off Adaptive Battery and now the phone is just flying through the apps. Yes, Twitter and co. can still have the occasional hick-up, but it is now significantly improved. I was about to sell the Ultra and already got an iPhone 13 Pro Max, but this is quite literally a game changer. Thank you, my man. Time to get the iPhone back to the store.
I haven't heard of the Brave issue. It doesn't seem to run in the background on my phone. And I don't know why it would if Chrome doesn't. Can you point me to a thread or something about Brave? I use it on all my PCs everyday and quite like it. And on my Kindle Fire, where running background apps are usually very apparent. Have I just not noticed on my phone for some reason?

I haven't heard of the Brave issue. It doesn't seem to run in the background on my phone. And I don't know why it would if Chrome doesn't. Can you point me to a thread or something about Brave? I use it on all my PCs everyday and quite like it. And on my Kindle Fire, where running background apps are usually very apparent. Have I just not noticed on my phone for some reason?

It does on my Note 10+/Pie. I can see it doing it on the firewall. So I close it out when not using it. May be just my configuration. Lol it doesn't need run at startup permissions.
Otherwise it's bulletproof, which is why I use it.
No malware ever slipped through it as it and the the N10+ are configured. It's been well tested...
