[HOW TO] Disable noise reduction! No root!!

Ok, it seems people here are more interested in modifying their OS more than trying to understand it. Since JB 4.1.2 Galaxy S2 natively supports the disabling of the Noise Reduction system inbuilt to the device.
Noted Advantages
1. Reduced Battery usage on "Voice Calls"
2. Less call breakup in low signal areas
3. Sharper voice during calls.
4. Improvement of voice level for devices inside cases
Noted Issue in the OS
Because the option to disable the feature was implemented at a later time the system runs noise suppression even though the menu check box clearly says it is not suppose to. This is a temporary issue which can be fixed by Enabling and then disabling the option in the menu.
HOW TO
1. Dialer Screen -> Menu Key -> Call Settings -> Additional Settings -> Check Noise reduction (Yes Enable it) -> Make a call
Next
2. Dialer Screen -> Menu Key -> Call Settings -> Additional Settings -> Uncheck Noise reduction -> Make a call (Notice that noise reduction is now disabled)
Enjoy your Galaxy S2
I try

change the speed of animations.

hey guys,i have the ResurrectionRemix
how can i change the speed of all the animations?
like open an app and closed it open the drawer and clear all tasks.
thank you
Go to Settings -> About Phone (At the bottom) -> tap on 'Build-nnumber' until it says 'you're a developer now' or something like that -> Go to Developer settings -> Scroll down until you see something like 'animation scale' and mess around with it until you like it (Sorry but my phone is in German and I don't know the exact english terms)

How to hide / deactivate the notification bar when power saving mode is turned on?

Dear people at xda,
I've been using OmegaDroid ROM (see omegadroid DOT co ) for more than five years now on different phones. First I want to say thank you to all (you?) developers for creating and improving this great operating system! I bought all the apps to support you, e.g. OmegaDroid Pro.
Here is my question:
Android 5 comes with two power saving modes, the (normal) "Power saving mode" and the "Ultra power saving mode". When the normal Power saving mode is turned on, a notification bar is always shown on the wipe down menu as you can see in the attached screenshot: https://forum.xda-developers.com/wi...roid-5-notification-bar-power-saving-mode.png
Do you know how to hide or deactivate the notification bar while keeping (normal) power saving mode turned on?
Phone: Samsung Galaxy S5 SM-G900F
Android version: 5.0
Kernel version: 3.4.0-Omega-1.0 [email protected] #1
Build number: Omega v18 -XXU1POFA
I found the solution!
It is actually pretty simple. Here are the steps:
1. Wipe down the menu so you can see the notification
2. Click and hold the notification until it becomes grey and a little "i" in a circle is shown
3. Click the i
4. You should now see app information for the app "Settings"
5. Uncheck the box "Show notifications"
6. Notification for "Power saving mode" is gone
I don't know if there are any important notifications the Settings app is now unable to show you. Does someone know?

[Fix/Tips] Battery drain and performance problems fix

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.

If you follow these 10(Normal everyone can do)+3(require twrp/root) simple steps you should not have any problems with battery life or 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.

Then disable for apps you constantly use.
