So I have the R800x and have root (love saying that) I am using ES file Explorer and going to sys -> devices -> i2c-0 -> 0-0040 -> leds -> lcd-backlight -> als and changing enable to 0, reboot and check back and it is still set to 1. any other way to remove or disable this crappy function... even the Iphone has an option to disable this!!!
Im in the same boat as you mate, tried every method out there, even adjbrithness but this phone is stubborn..
I hope that theres a custom firmware or something that can disable this.
Same here
the biggest issue with this phone is that damn auto dimmer!!!!!!
even did a "reroot" to see if I did something wrong.
Im surprised that only a small percentage of people actualy complaint about this.

I downgraded to 4.1.2 because my Nexus was getting crazy lag, and now it's smooth and lovely again. Anyway, everything is fine except for the constant popups to upgrade to 4.2. What's the easiest way to disable that?

If you have installed System Tuner, you can make this go away.
On System Tuner -> select System (the one with the red android icon) -> scroll down and select Google Services Framework -> tap Details button (the one with the magnifying glass icon) -> scroll down to Services subsection -> uncheck update.SystemUpdateService -> close System Tuner -> restart.
Hope this helps
Well that totally worked and wasn't too hard. So far the thing I only miss about 4.2 is that new clock app with world time, stopwatch, timer. I wonder if I could find that somewhere

You can fix the lag on 4.2.1 as well, pretty easy: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2012756

Thanks for the information. I've been looking for something to do the exact thing for me.
I didn't see this posted elsewhere, so here goes.
Lightflow seems to be working with root, albeit with limited functionality. And of course, the Turbo only has a green LED.
I tinkered with the settings a bit with trial and error to get this to work; maybe someone else can find the perfect combination to get it working optimally. Disclaimer: YMMV, you're at your own risk re: breaking something. I haven't used this long enough to assess battery drain or any other adverse effects.
Settings to configure -- everything else was left at the default setting.
First, grant device Notification Access, obviously.
Then in Lightflow:
Under Settings -> Device Settings and Root:
Turn on "Direct mode"
Turn on "Root mode" and then grant access via Superuser prompt
Turn on "Run every command as root"
Turn on "Show LED while screen on"
Under Settings -> LED control:
Main LED control: set to "Control"
Scroll down to "Additional LEDs" and enable "charging control"
Go back to Notificaiton Settings in Lightflow and chose your app/notification of choice.
Scroll over using the top tabs to "Light," and tick "Enable light"
On this "Light" tab, scroll down to "charging LED" and make sure it's set to solid.
Set the charging brightness to "100" -- it didn't work with a couple other arbitrary values that I tried
You can test the notification using the button on the upper right.
I got it to work for SMS and MMS, but didn't try other Notifications.
Again, this is pretty crude. You basically get a static green alert (and I think I got it to flash once, but don't remember the settings... I was just tinkering). If someone wants to spend more time playing around and refining these settings, go for it. And like I said, I don't know if this has adverse effects. Maybe this also means other apps could work; I don't know what else is out there.
It's very interesting! But my phone is unrooted, and i don't know how root it!

You can't root if your on 5.1 lollipop and you have to pay $20 to root if your on 4.4 Kitkat via MOFOROOT.
I know. But i live in Vietnam, Mofo support only in America. That's why i can't root my phone.

People in other countries do it all the time. Use proxy or VPN.
I have used many divices such as LG, SAMSUNG, MOTOROLA. I never pay money for rooted tools because they always are free.
After updating to marshmallow, the notification has the 'tap to manage notifications'. How to remove it? Thanks
Have to disable
I actually want to use the app but I can't stand seeing that "Tap to manage notifications". INSANELY annoying. Some people don't care but I do and I have the right to not have software forced on my phone. Has me contemplating about returning this Zenfone 3 as I am still in the return period though overall I like it.
Frustrating there is no easy setting so the only way is:
Go to APP MANAGER > MOBILE MANAGER > DISABLE
Then it's gone. If you need to use Asus Mobile Manager again search for it in the Play Store and ENABLE or repeat the step above and ENABLE.
Frustrating and I wish there was a way to have a full dark mode in Settings instead of that blinding white design. I despise white screen design, I want my interface like I want my coffee. Black.
Hello guys, I want to try to help everyone who has problems with battery life and performance.
First of all, I want to say that you shouldnt have any problems if you use your device in a normal way(calling ,social networking apps, playing light games etc)
A SOT of around 6-7h on mobile network or a SOT of 7-8h on WiFi is really good and in my opinion normal and you shouldnt need to worry about. Over night while you are sleeping (8h for example) your battery shouldnt drain more than 3-5%.
If you have much less SOT or much more battery drain over night, you should read the following steps and try them.
(I can tell you that my OP3/3t never drains more than 3-4% over night and I have no problem getting 6h SOT on mobile network or 6-7h or even more on WiFi use only. I have to say I dont use Facebook or twitter for example, but I have my Bluetooth always turned on because i use a mi band )
Please try the following steps and tell me if it did help you. (Please choose one option in the pool)
1. Activate doze mode and aggressive doze mode in developer options and change the animation scale
- Go into settings -> developer options -> Doze mode -> activate it
- Go into Settings ->Battery ->3 Dots Menu ->Agressive doze & app hibernation ->Tap the slider and activate for apps
- Go into settings -> developer Options -> Window Animation scale/Transitions Animation scale/Animator duration scale -> set them to .5x or even off
2. Install Greenify from Google Play Store and activate it
Activate it for every app you can, except for apps with a little blue cloud as they need to work in background to sync data. (WhatsApp for example)
3. Wipe cache after every update and from time to time (I recommend once a week)
Turn off your phone -> hold power button and volume down button -> release the power when your phone turns on -> select english by pressing the volume down button and then the power button -> go to wipe cache and data -> select cache (and nothing else!) and press the power button -> reboot now
4. Turn off potential power hogs you dont necessarily need
- For example turn off Bluetooth, GPS Location and Location history, Mobile Data if not in use, WiFi if not in use and NFC -> you can find them in settings under their name
- Also turn off things like gestures in settings: Go into settings -> Gestures -> turn them off
5. Use pocket mode
Settings -> Advanced -> Pocket Mode
6. Turn off Android Device Manager and Google Now Cards
- Settings -> Security & Fingerprint -> Device Administrators -> Android Device-Manager -> turn it off
- Open your Google App -> Settings -> Your Feed -> Turn off Feed
7. Configure your WiFi
- Settings -> Wifi -> tap the gear symbol -> turn off "Scanning always available"
- You can also turn off "Keep wifi on during sleep" but i dont recommend it as apps like WhatsApp will only receive messages when you turn your screen back on!
8. Use adaptive brightness
Use the little "A" in the dropdown settings menu next to your screen brigthness bar
9. Use a Browser that is developed for Snapdragon devices
I recommend using Gello Mod or TugaBrowser as they are developed especaily for using with a device with a snapdragon CPU to save battery -> just search for them in Google
10. Disable permissions of apps
Try disabling permissions of apps if possible. This should prevent apps from using your internet connection and staying in background keeping your CPU awake. Please be aware that some specific apps need some specific rights to work properly. Use the try and error method here.
11. If u have custom recovery installed you can use custom kernels such as ex kernel , blu spark etc for better battery and performance.

Im using it, obviously isn't optimized exactly for the 3T but they are quite similar devices and it's better than stock imo.

Go to Settings -> Installed Apps -> Find Waze and Android Auto -> Enable Autostart -> Battery Saver -> Set to "No restrictions"
