1% Battery Info Display Application

Hello developers,
I just came with an idea for the 1% battery display, it is developing an application which calculates 1% battery and displays the values in realtime based on the values read from the battery voltage. So, we will have accurate values being displayed without considering that system battery information display(may be toggling it off). What you people say?

Battery Monitor Widget...does the same

No, it shows the battery percentage like system. I'm trying to show battery percentage through calculating based on battery voltage.

If we do that in kernel its a hardcode and difficult but I'm trying to do in softcode like just reading the battery voltage from an application and showing the percentage values.

Lets say if you have voltage reading of 3650 then what would be the battery % if its calculated based on the current battery voltage? and compare it with the system battery %, you do see the battery difference.

Well nice idea but as dharam said it's already done in the kernel and also from what I noticed the voltage doesn't remain constant
And if you do it you'll make a widget/status bar indicator then what about the stock status bar indicator?

The status bar has to be changed to normal indicator instead of battery % and using this application to see its 1% battery info.
I know voltage doesn't remain constant but we do get the somewhat accurate values than from the kernel we had now.
I know we have it kernel but we dont have 1% battery working successfully if battery goes below 50%. I see a battery steps of 50-42-37-34-25....15-5-3-1.
So, I'm just trying to make batter for this ranges using current battery voltage.

I don't think you can read the battery status from any app, even with using native code. The system sends a broadcast message every time the battery status is changed, you can only use these messages, you can not read directly the hardware.

Too late man, I already asked about that here. There is an app called battery monitor pro, but it's a paid app. He implemented the feature of setting the up-down limits after my suggestion. The free edition doesn't have the manual set and the preset of 3200mV(low limit) is not correct for our phones. Our device works within 3500mV-4150mV

Full Guide for Best Battery Saver

Hello guys! I'm new here, and sorry for my english mistakes, but I'm Brazillian member, and I will share some information about my actual Moto X XT1058, that I search about two weeks for save my battery, and now It's great!
When finish my setup, I charged up to full and the battery info now is:
48% - Not charging
1d2h14m
Screen - 25%
Phone - 17%
System - 11%
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
* The important part is here, when screen use generally takes more than 60%.
** I use my phone on the day to talk with clients and Whatsapp (less whatsapp because I'm working ^^). And on the night time I use my Whatsapp with more frequency and listen to music.
1 - WHAT ROM
CyanogenMOD Nightly Version for MOTO X
Generally the ROM is not the important part, but if your ROM uses a kernel that have no way to make some system changes, than this will be a problem.
2 - GENERAL SETTINGS
Wifi - OFF
Bluetooth - OFF
Mobile Data - ON
Bright - Lower % - I will talk about the APP
Sync - OFF
Lock Screen - 15s
Rotation - OFF
Sound - Not vibrate
Notifications - Not vibrate
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
* To vibrate the phone, requires more battery than to play a song, than avoid to set vibration.
3 - SYSTEM CHANGES
On CyanogenMOD, you go to:
Settings -> System -> Performance
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
- On Performance Profile menu, set the profile to 'Economy' in default its on 'Balanced'.
- Above the profile settings, you have to DISABLE the 'Activate profile by APPs'.
- On System Performance, go to Processor, and change:
Governator -> 'Ondemand'
Minimum Frequency -> '384 Mhz'
Maximum Frequency -> '1350 Mhz'
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
* The maximum Frequency seted here is more than suficient for my use, but you can adequate for yours.
4 - CLEAN UNUSED APPs
Here is a important part, but you have to stay calm and do not uninstall important system files or aplications.
To make that securely, I recommend to install the Titanium Backup, and you have to be ROOT.
Here is my list of the DISABLED things on my CyanogenMOD ROM, until now, I have no problem, and its stable

5 - INSTALL APPs
I have installed some APPs to keep my Moto X secure and fast, some paid services, but I think on my security in first place.
Kaspersky Security
- Activate the Thief Controle
- Activate the SIM Security
- Activate the Browser Security
- Desativate the notification icon
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Dashclock Roman
- Install the custom DashClock
- Enable the Custom Widget on Lock Screen Settings
- Enable the Maximizate Widget on Lock Screen Settings
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Dash Notifier for DashClock Roman
- Enable Notifier for WhatsAPP
- Enable Notifier for SMS
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Clean Master
- Make a CLEAN
- Make a boost memory
- Activate the Auto Clean on Screen OFF
- ADD some APP to ignore list like: WhatsAPP, Apollo (Music), Dashclock Widget
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
JuiceDefender
- Enable the Advanced MODE
- Setting UP with your preference
- This APP have a ugly interface, but it Works and have a guide for all the features
- This have a feature to shutting down the own service when receive a SMS with your custom code, Its very useful to use with the Kaspersky Thief Service and others app that will use your GPS or Data mode.
- The feature of the Bright is too helpful for battery, keep that in mind.
- Bellow my JuiceDefender Settings, they are on PT-BR, but you can understand:

6 - GENERAL TIPS
- Avoid to use white or colorfull backgrounds, wallpaperks...because on the AMOLED screen they will use much more battery. I use a black and red wallpaper/lock screen, and a black wallpaper on whatsapp.
- Avoid to keep the music on when you are not listening.
- The Dashclock Widget with the Whatsapp Notifier, will prevent you to unlock the screen unnecessarily.
- The default bright on the Moto X is too high, and with the JuiceDefender the minimum bright are lower and more quality for your read on the day and night. A high bright on night and bed, can cause you sleeplessness problems.
7 - FINAL
Thanks for the atention, and this is a guide for people who want a better battery life.
I spend much time to understand all these things and make my best Moto X changes.
Have question? Feel free to ask.
Have more APPs to help on the battery saver? Share with us too.

8 - BATTERY SAVER APPs
I forgot to tell...my JuiceDefender Ultimate are crashing and stoped to work alone...this is bad. But on the Play Services have too many other Battery Saver APPs.
Another APP for battery in place of the buged JuiceDefender, that I recommend is:
Easy Battery Saver
But that is for your choice, and I think just the JuiceDefender have the bright control with the minimal % reduced.
If you want to install other Baterry APP, like the EBS, that not have bright control, I really recommend you to install these app:
Screen Filter

Tweaks To Improve Battery Life Guide

I can't take credit for any of this as I found it on the Zenfone 2 forums. Here are some additional tweaks to help with battery life.
dangphat0608 is the author, and the post with pictures is here: www.asus.com/zentalk/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=13483
Here's the info:
Hi everyone, i've found a way fix problem battery brain. Before, when i were to sleep battery drain about 5~8% ( 6hours ). Now, just 1~2%. .
Now, Google has put on one of the features, and one of which is "Locate and identify information of Android devices" and "Android Device Manager". It always running background. Of course, things are two sides of it
1.Go to setting > Location > Turn on
2. Change Mode in Location > Battery saving
And turn off Location if you not use.
3. Go to Google settings app > Security > Turn off Allow remote lock and erase and Remotely locate this divice
4. Go to Wifi setting advance > Turn off Ssanning always available
5. Restart your phone

If you read through that ZenTalk thread, you will see that this "tweak" doesn't do anything to improve battery life, as reported by people who tried.

Which one?
For example, turning off the wifi scan increases battery life, as ASUS themselves stated it as a solution. (forum.xda-developers.com/zenfone2/help/battery-improvement-update-t3127953).
I don't know about turning off the remote locking and location services, but it wouldn't hurt to try it.

If you want to increase your battery life.
1. Root your ZF2
2. Install Titanium Backup
3. Open Titanium Backup and Freeze or Uninstall all the Asus and third party crapware pre-installed on the phone
4. Reboot and Enjoy quality battery life
Going through and freezing all the useless crap apps increased my battery life tremendously.

You are rite freezing apps does increase battery life...But dont delete bloatware...Causes bootloop while updating... Plus you can also install greenify it helped me increase my battery a lot..

How much gain can this provide? Can you please describe in terms of SOT or standby? I plan to buy ZE550ML, but have been holding back so far, due to the negative battery reviews. Thanks!

Deleting/freezing apps will give better battery and sometimes performance, but it all depends on what's in use vs what should be in use vs what's removed/frozen.
I uninstall junk, I don't care about an OTA not loading. It doesn't bootloop if you remove the apps that it needs to verify, it simply fails to flash. With unlocked/insecure boot though, that problem is gone. I can remove the checks and flash it anyway.
You won't find a single, solid number of what makes your phone perform better when talking about removing pre-installed apps. Some people use them, some people don't. Most of them don't run on start-up or run at all unless you manually open them. Most aren't impacting your phone in any way other than eating up a few MB of space.

Hi. Got a question about OEM bootloader on/off in settings-developer options after update 5.1. If i turn it on it says, warning device protections features will not longer worm if turned on. Does this mean the bootloader is unlocked then or not? Thanks 4the answer ahead ?
Sent from my HTC One M9 using Tapatalk

Now there is an option to auto reject calls while priority
Or on in don't disturb mode

Not official by any means but since day one I've had problems ending calls. I'd take the phone away from my ear and it wouldn't let me press end call or there would be a delay where people would beat me to ending the call. It was a bit embarrassing when you called someone haha! That seems to be completely gone in this update.
Phone seems smoother and it doesn't seem to be running as warm. Will test it with Google Maps navigation later. First impressions are good. Waiting to see how battery life has improved.

Isn't this across the board the 5.1 update for all regions?

Just got it here in Australia
And does anyone know what the unlock bootloader part in Developer options is about?
Sent from my HTC_0PJA10 using Tapatalk

@bmwmane46 @TornadoF6 that allows you to run commands like fastboot OEM unlock, if you leave it unchecked then it is for security and if someone steals your phone they can't bypass your security by rooting or wiping your data from recovery.
One other thing for 5.1 update: power saver is no longer customizable by CPU/data/brightness/vibrate... It is all or nothing. Very disappointing change.

Lots of thanks ? yes i saw the power saver is totally messed up after the update ? u can just on/off it, what a bummer ?

There was also ment to be a drop down menu on the Bluetooth & Wifi quick settings,so you didn't have to right into the settings to pick what wifi or bluetooth device to connect to,bummed about that

slow charging after 5.1 update
just got my 5.1 update from Vodafone au and in the update it would improve the charge time. I would charge my phone in a bout 2 to 2 1/2 hrs and now it's so slow. if anyone has any tips i'd be grateful.

If you are using Encrypted storage (Internal) e.g. for Exchange policies, the HTC boot-up audio has moved. You now hear the boot-up sound immediately after boot-up. You used to hear it after you'd entered your PIN to decrypt internal storage...
MMB.

I beg to differ on the alleged improved charging time. It's no different than before.
There's still an audio glitch where the speakers crack for no apparent reason.
The device still gets ridiculously hot.

Fast charging is now very slow, normal charger is working properly.

has anyone tried the developer bootloader unlock? If i tick that box will i lose the OTA updates in the future?(i know that you do when you unlock the bootloader by giving your imei to htc)

you need to mention these
main highlights for this update:
- Snapdragon 810 v2.1 drivers
- Significantly improved charging behavior
- Significantly improved thermal behavior
- Significantly improved CPU usage, Antutu scoring up to 64k
- Raised GPU max speed to 633mhz (Adreno 430)

Much appreciated..ui has very smooth now.will tell u after testing battery life soon

Like L-Speed

I appreciate the effort and I love tweaking apps, but without more detailed explanation of each tweak, it feels sketchy. For the technical minded, what are the mysterious battery tweaks for marshmallow that are activated by that toggle? and the other tweaks that don't have detailed explanations?

How does this differ from L Speed in terms of features? Are the battery saving features incorporated in this app the same as in L Speed?

Thanks for feedback !

I have it from 2 days and I noticed microlags are gone.
Just one thing: this app needs init.d support, so (I have xtrestolite that supports) I had to create a folder called "init.d" in system/etc with permissions "drwx------" and after that it created me 4 files in it.
