Anyone here using greenify?

And if so: is it working for you? And what apps are greenified on your nexus?

Yes.
Yes.
Maps is a big one. It likes to run in the background and eat up battery.

im using, its working, and most my apps are greenified, besides a few root apps. i dont use notifications for any app besides gtalk and gmail, so i greenify all that i can. i also use an app called autostarts, which works well in conjunction with greenify

ya
I still don't know it's purpose.

I can't get facebook message notifications even though I ungreenified them

I used to use it. Among the apps I Greenified were:
1. Facebook
2. Maps
3. ESPN Scorecenter
Although I found that WhatsApp and Viber woke my device quite often, I use them all the time so it didn't make sense to include them in the list.
In terms of effect, it did reduce battery consumption some. But then I figured I'd just be a responsible user and sparingly install apps and turn off notifications altogether if I didn't really need them (or use bookmarks to mobile web versions instead). If you really need all your apps, then Greenify is a safe choice.

The concept of turning off notifications altogether is good only of the app is properly written for it. For example Facebook.... Even if you turn off all notifications whatsoever it still creates wakeups.

Correct. Which is why I now use m.facebook.com instead. The Facebook app is a really terrible battery drainer.

I see maps waking up the phone quite often. But will Google now still work if you greenify maps?

[Q] Rooting and debloating my SM-N910F.

Hello guys,
I am new to android and I would like to root and debloat my note 4. I won't be making some big changes, I've got nova launcher + greenify and it's good enough for me as for customization but I experience a lot bigger battery drain on 5.0.1 than on 4.4.4 so I would like to root my note and check what are the wakelocks, and then if needed delete bloat apps like dropbox, facebook (maybe installing facebook lite?), facebook messenger, ANT radio and such.
My question is if rooting with cf-autoroot is enough to do this thing? Will Titanium backpup help me delete all the bloatware apps? What app will I need to stop baterry-draining wakelocks? And also, is there any way to block all but one apps from background data? Let's say I will turn off data in background and leave it just for whatsapp for notofications? I would like to block some google services also since i never use S voice or google now etc.
I would appreciate any kind of help.

Wakelock Detector doesn't work on my rooted note 4 sm-n910F. Any ideas?

For wakelock finding you can use GSAM battery monitor or BetterBatteryStats (BBS)
Greenify, Disable Service, or Amplify if you use Xposed to improve battery life.
Debloating can be done manually, or with scripts/programs around the forum here.
Or you can just flash SimplRom in and have a debloated rom immediatly
Hope it helps :good:

I wouldn't uninstall My Places as I believe is tied in with system security. Just freeze it, as least then if removing it does cause any problems is an easy fix.

Guys my Note 4 is in standby mode since last night, what can be the problem? I turned off nearly all the settings like gps, bluetooth, nfc, etc. Only wifi is on.

Greenifying Motorola System Apps

Everyone around uses greenify, but I am on stock and not rooted. I have greenified almost every other system app. Anyone who has a decent hold over knowledge when it comes too greenifying system apps can tell me which ones are safe and which ones shouldnt be greenified ? Thanks in advance.

i greenifying motorola update, device management, Rescue Add-on:Motorola, initializing services motorola; and deleted moto care/int .
motorola modality services its for "moto screen" and shouldnt disable if u use that.
i want to know more too ;D

I don't think its necessary anymore to greenify system apps since android 6. Its better to disable the moto and google services in settings > apps. Disabling also prevents the services to start when booting and saves more power and memory.

Even I have disabled these apps but battery keeps draining as most of the system apps are awake all the time. So to save more and squeeze more battery life I was wondering if its safe to hibernate motorola services and apps.

follow this to disable even more system apps www.xda-developers.com/setting-up-android-marshmallow-without-google/
just greenify all user apps and turn auto hibernation on that should be enough IMO.

Link not working. However I know about automated hibernation.. But with no root device there is hardly any scope for deep hibernation.
Edit : worked from laptop.
PS : This needs custom recovery ?

no, you don't even need to root... just go to settings--apps--show system and start disabling according to the guide whatever you don't need.

I never greenify system apps since android lollipop and never have had strange battery drains so far. Its normal that a lot of system apps are running in the background, thats why they call it a smartphone. Just auto greenify your user apps and disable all services you don't use in android settings. And don't use wakelock detectors, because it only makes you crazy seeing how much services are running in the background which is completely normal. You can auto hibernate user apps without root, only takes a little longer to hibernate.

You should go through the article once, clearly talks about custom recovery, running commands. There is no option to run command from stock recovery.

That is for removing Google products totally... Go to the end of the article it has a list of products which you can disable without causing any problems.

Have successfully removed all the google apps. Only issue is Ola cabs app doesnt work without play services and still looking for a proper standalone YouTube app. Plus contacts synchronisation app if available.. Rest I have replaced allmost all.

How to improve the battery performance?

Which apps should I use? I have a rooted system

using huawei setting is a good way, Greenify, with root give good result. I've try xposed framework tip's but, for me , maybe you can adjust/set the way your battery is working but just install xposed give a huge drain battery. I've test V84, V85 and V86 and with just framework manager with no modules I had 20 or 30 % lost in the night VS maybe 6-8 % without.
Excuse my poor English

Personnaly i use Naptime to hibernate the phone when it is not used, and the Amplify Xposed module to kill wakelocks, then increase stand-by battery life.

For me, the best " battery saving mode " was the "stamina" mode on sony device. I saw there is a plan to port this mode ( stamina ) on any android device, using xposed module --> http://repo.xposed.info/module/net.jzhang.powernap
For me, battery is ok without framework, but if you want take a look...
But I repeat, using Huawei setting is a good way : phone manager ( ? in french it's gestionnaire de téléphone ) explore menu, and setting / app/advanced setting / ignore battery optimisation ( ?)

I personally use Xposed with greenfy module, and L Speed app (From Play Store).
I can use the phone the whole day without recharging it.
I can recommend you also Amplify module ?

I dont understand how greenify works. So if I greenify whatsapp for example do I still get messages on time?
Which apps should I greenify? Could someone write a list with some apps? Thx

Greenify keeps turning off the apps. This is how it works.
That means you won't get messages, as long as the app is not opened.

edit : maybe you need xposed module of greenify

with donate version you can hibernate app and get message, even it's hibernated :
from greenify description from play store :
"* Greenify system apps (now without Xposed)
* Allow GCM push for hibernated apps"

True, but you need to be sure the app supports GCM

Thanks to everybody!

Phone not receiving real time notifications

Hi, I have an OP5 on stock Open Beta 5, I'm currently rooted.
Apps that usually have real time notifications or functions don't seem to work until I manually start them after bootup, or even don't work at all.
For example, my mail app now doesn't give me notifications, rather I would have to open up the app manually and refresh the app to see my mail load. Other apps like a notification mirroring app don't work at all until I launch it once on my phone every restart.
I thought it was like Greenify shutting these processes down but I've uninstalled that since. Any ideas?

Did you reboot and wipe cache? What mods did you use additional? Please give more details about your setup.
You can also exclude apps from battery optimization for keeping this apps awake even when doze kicks in so messages came always through and not only in specific time periods.

Hi, I'm currently rooted with Magisk. I tried excluding the app from battery optimisation and so far it's been working.
