i think if i blocked the notifiations led not work ? .. i will try thanks

You can disable from within Light Flow, same as I have done:
Settings > Persistant Icon > Run in Foreground (disable)

Don't seem to have this option in the latest paid version

Screen shot below

It's not possible in the latest version. The developer explained why in a blog post: http://www.reactle.com/2015/10/changes-for-android-6-marshmallow.html

This explanation makes it seem like using lightflow will effectively prevent your phone from dozing properly.

Based on my experience, it looks like that is indeed the case. If you have an active notification with an LED pulsing, the battery will drain significantly even while the screen is off. Yesterday, I had a couple of active notifications with rotating LED patterns and I decided not to clear them and let the phone sit to test the effect on the battery. It went from 40% to 27% in a little over an hour.

It's not clear to me from the developers explanation above if Lightfoot prevents dozing from working at all. But I have light flow installed and running and haven't seen doze mode yet.

The exact same thing happened to me, except i have Light Manager. I thought it was the LED too but wasn't sure. So i'm gonna uninstall or disable it. A real shame since this app is awesome.

[Android 2.2+][11.11.2011][v1.3] CF.lumen (for Chainfire 3D)

THIS APP AND THREAD HAVE BEEN REPLACED BY THIS ONE HERE: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2711912
CF.lumen changes the colors of your Android device's display based on the position of the sun. With the default settings, your display will get a warmer tint (lower color temperature) when the sun is down, to look more like indoor lighting and less like the sun, which causes less strain on your eyes and doesn't keep you awake as much.
This is an addon for Chainfire3D, you need to have both Chainfire3D and Chainfire3D Pro installed to be able to use CF.lumen
With the default settings, blue tints will be reduced in brightness when the sun goes down. This reduces how much looking at the screen keeps your brain awake later at night. If you have sleeping problems, you should definitely be using this. Do yourself a favor and install similar software ("f.lux") on your PC as well - it fixed my sleeping cycle.
There is also a full-on sleep mode that runs on a pre-set schedule. By default it shows the entire screen in red, so as to not destroy your night vision when you look at it.
When you want the screen to look normal for a bit (for example for gaming or looking at pictures) simply tap the notification in the notification tray to disable CF.lumen until the next time you turn on the screen.
Additionally, it can also use the light sensor to automagically switch to sleep mode when it is fully dark. HOWEVER, you should be aware that most devices do not have a sensitive enough light sensor to detect the difference between house light and darkness, so this function may not work very well on your device.
Last but not least, a function is also provided to turn off the screen based on proximity sensor activity.

Chainfire: Which software do you recommend.
Thank you
F.Lux is one..
Yeah I use F.lux as well. App updated to v1.1, by the way
This seems to be draining 8% of my battery in battery stats. Is it supposed to do that?

I did have it enabled for about 3 hours before realising that. After that I turned it off. So this probably means it was the sensor services?

I can't get it to work, because when I click Location it just keeps trying Finding location... I left it there a couple times for 15 mins... nada. (GPS and Network location turned on).
Maybe a simple Latitude/Long field would help?
Thanks for another interesting app!
Ohh, and Chainfire3D Pro working with NVIDIA plugins here.
Chainfire, just wanted to thank you for your ingenious work, your out of the box thinking is the reason I run nearly all of your apps.. Never stop making me say "I didn't even think that was possible!"
Really love your work chainfire can we have an option to disable notifications in taskbar.

Works pretty well, except for that when it's enabled, it seems to somehow turn off the fade screen transition in CM7 when you hit the home key. The screen still correctly shrinks, but once it shrinks it just waits for a split second, then disappears. Normally it shrinks and fades at the same time. This isn't a big deal really but I figured I'd post it here in case I'm not the only one.

Still thinking about how to best do that. In the newer Android versions (Gingerbread and up) you actually HAVE to have that icon to make sure Android doesn't constantly kill the background service.
Alternatives are for example to restart the service on a timer, I think I'll build that in at some point.
CF.lumen updated to v1.2
Changelog:
- "Sleep in the dark" now checks for proximity as well as light levels
- "Bright light" mode added, switches to Day mode in bright light even when in Sundown or Night mode
- "Notification Mode" settings added. Can remove notification. WARNING: Doing so may lead to CF.lumen being shut down by Android at random times.
Can you add the option for the bright light mode to switch to night sundown mode instead of day mode? I'm also seeing 7-8% CPU usage with the proximity sensor enabled. I like the idea of this feature for battery savings (example, putting the phone in my pocket and having the screen turn off immediately) so if there is any way to tweak the battery consumption it would be great! Would you be able to have the icon displayed change to reflect the mode it's in? For example a sun for daytime, moon for sunset mode, etc.?
One last thing, noticed that the Sleep filter setting does not get saved with version 1.1. It says Unknown even after you have selected a filter.
v1.3
Minor bugfix release v1.3:
- Minor crash fixes
- Current color filter display no longer says "Unknown"
- CPU usage reduced
- Power usage reduced

Notification LED

Hi, since the note lacks notification LEDs, is BLN ready for it now?
noled works.
I did try noled but sometimes in dark area the black around the icons seems to be not black as it is when it's in suspend mode. my conclusion is that it's consuming to much battery at that time.
power button to wake ain't working too.
what about your experiences at all using noled right now?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk
Noled is working fine for me. Doesn't seem to use up too much juice. Leaving GPS and bluetooth on overnight however almost depleted the battery from full.
I love using NoLed, definitely my favourite application. I have it set to display my contacts picture and so whenever I have missed a call from a friend and receives a text from another, I am aware of this by a simple glance!
Battery life isn't significantly effected in my opinion (I have the icon size small/medium and brightness set low).

Hi there newbie here, are these apps? so are downloaded from android or what?
My Motorola Flipout also don't have nonfiction light, but the capacitive buttons blinks when there is a miss call text/email. I wonder how difficult it is to implement it on our Note?

Seconded, this is such a simple and great idea
Well at least there's a sysfs to control the state. It's just a plain on and off leds though, nothing fancy like per-button lights and brightness as in Dell Streak. No big deal for some distracting blinks
Light it on with
# echo "1" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/melfas_touchkey/brightness
Light off with
# echo "2" > /sys/devices/virtual/misc/melfas_touchkey/brightness
It won't be controllable when it's sleeping though, as usual. So either wake lock (battery drain), modify keyboard driver, or a *very top secret* other method
Can't it be done like in the Dell Streak 5?
App's name is Streak LED.
Isn't it possible to write something like that? Would be ideal.
surely this app not a battery hog? I already felt bad on my battery @@ but I also want a notification light.... tough choice.
i would love the capacitive touch led´s light up when a message arrive. My Dell Streak has an app for it, its just great!
@watch_mania

There are several ways to implement the feature, each with their own weaknesses. I'll aim for the best solution, but I'll need to check on the melfas touchkey driver for it. Worse case is the wake lock with root access.
It's going to be implemented for sure, as I badly needs the feature as well. It's just a question of when..
Sent from my GT-N7000 using Tapatalk
Yeah, I believe also the touch keys are the best solution for me to use them for notifications.
Have been running NoLED for a couple of days (ish useful) - however, checked the battery stats and it was awake a LONG time (15% of 13hrs?) and was around 10% of battery usage.
Have turned it off for now as I sit next to my phone for most of working day and therefore hear it as much as I see it.
Will re-evaluate once I've optimised the phone setup.

I donno why it will turn of itself suddenly, how to keep it always on?
NOLED doesn't work for me...
Well, mates, Noled is not working for me...
Just the option to see the recharge % on the lockscreen...
It worked just once for a sms notification and after that....oblivion
Someone else with the same issue? I am trying to find out a new app with similar options...
try putting the widget on your homescreen, i dont know why but it tends to randomly turn off

we have a notification led

apologies if this is old news, but I found out this am that we have an led on our phones! I have the 64gb version.
When I woke up, the phone was dead (let the battery die overnight), when I plugged it in to the turbo charger (off, and dead) an led lit up on the top of the phone (not sure where, I was half asleep) it was green, and very clear.
I've tried a couple play store led tools, nothing can make it light up, I'm tempted to let it die again just to see it light up.
hope we can play with it when lollipop goes live.
I suspected this since they found one in the nexus 6, I doubt we get to touch it without root.
i hate led notifications since moto display came out. never can go back.
I like active display but I REALLY like having a notification led.. I miss it.. I love being able to specify different colors for different contacts, apps, etc.. It would be great to be able to have access to both active display and a notification led..
I could be wrong, but I dont recall seeing any mention of an LED when watching the Turbo teardown video.
You sure you werent dreaming?

If he was, we had the same dream. I saw it too when my batter was dead and I plugged the charger in. To me it seemed smaller than the notification light on the S4.

One does exist, believe it is the same as the one in the moto x: http://www.droid-life.com/2014/01/0...notification-light-hidden-under-the-earpiece/ . It only shows when there is not enough battery power to illuminate the display when charging to show the battery icon.
new to me, thats awesome hopefully we can make use of it! I miss color coding my LEDs to each app, it was great for knowing instantly what kind of notification I had by just glancing at my phone across the room.
I have a moto maxx with root. Gonna tey the Nexus 6 way and see if it works.

I cant stand the onscreen notifications. Bugs the crap outta me. There are times where I dont look at my screen for hours. Just from a battery life angle the led flashing has to use less battery than the on screen notifications.

I have a moto maxx rooted too and I already checked this led and it works as far now I just can say that led color is only green and not rgb led like n6. :silly:
I used light flow app to make it on. I will be trying some diferent combinations and see if I can get something else.
I´ve been not able to make it flash, it´s just solid green light.

Ud be suprised at how very little battery life it takes for the Moto Display, if u have GSam battery app u will see it uses less then a percent on each charge. So that means out of your total 100% battery only 1% or less goes to the active notification.
I'd like to use active display but apparently I disabled it.... Anyone know where I can enable it? Or does it only work with slide to unlock option? Leaving your phone vulnerable to snoopers. (I'm using pattern to unlock)
Display (not sure if active or not) is in the "moto" app. Under settings or moto icon

I was using it with pattern, and now I use it with PIN.
Go to Settings->Moto
Click on Display in the lower right. There should be a check mark next to Moto Display on the next screen. That's also where you select which apps display on it, and whether or not you want notification details available.

[Q] finally got my note 4, a few questions

hey guys,
before 2 days i finally got my note 4 after a long time with iphones,a few words wow! what a great phone! i dont know what i did with iphone so many years. everything is open and so simple and i really glad i chose to go with the note 4.
now i have some questions (The most important question is the battery life) and much more questions and i will glad if you can help me with all of the questions.
ok lets start,
1. the most important questions is my first question and is about the battery life, When I received the note 4 I waited for fully discharged for the first use until the device turns off, and then I charged it again (with fast charging without turn of the device) and i fell asleep and then in the morning was 100% so i turn the device (yes I know not to leave it charging all night even after the device is already 100% but its happend ) well I noticed that the battery runs out really fast, and my use was quite low and I do not know how! For example, after a 3 hours of use the battery goes from 100% to 60% and after more two hours its was 35%. excpet this i saw when i got 5-6% i was playing a bit with the settings and after 2-3 min the device turns off. how 5-6% in 2-3 min and even less?
this is the things i did to save my battery life already:
sound settings: turns off - vibrate while ringing, dailing keypad tone, touch sound, screen lock sound, sounds when tapped, vibrate when tapped and all the rest.
brightness: almost the lowest and even now i tried auto - btw what is the best to do - auto brightness or to set it your own on low brightness?
bluetooth - off
closing applications with the "recent app button" - V
GPS - off
Disable Pen Detection - off
and more settings that i dont remmber.
here is a picture of my power saving in settings (before i charge it without "fast charing") Do not know if this is related but just mention that
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
so what should i do to to extend my battery life? because my battery life very poor.
Sub Questions about the battery:
a. which way is the best to charge the note? wait until the device turns off and then to charge it to 100%? or what?
b. fast charing option is good? right now i turns the option off and my device charging while he off. what do you recommend to turn off the feature or on?
2. i heard when i force stop applications in "applications manager" is good is that true? is effect on the battery life?
look at the picture i uploaded from there,
the settings are good? do i have to force stop applications? i will glad to hear a short explanation about this.
3. about the RAM usage, applications thats running or i dont know how to call it, look at the picture i uploaded:
1.6 GB in use and sometimes its even 2GB in use, i really dont know how! i didnt use so many applications.
it is ok to close apps from here or to let the system to handle it? and is effect on the battery life? i really glad to short explantion about it also.
4. the google syncs its like iCloud in apple? i saw in settings alot of marks like: calander, contacts, and many more can sync to google+, what thats means? its will upload to google sync cloud? or its just a backup to the contacts? i really dont understand this.
5. i used wazzapmigrator app to my note from iphone to transfer all my whatsapp history chat, is it safe? everything works good i just ask it to be sure. by the way i use the "LITE" version of free download and now each message have - LITE, if i buy the full version its will remove it?
and a sub question, i used smartswitch to transfer my notes, calander, contacts is ok?
Sorry for the ignorance i know i asked so many stupid questions but i have to solve them.
thank you very much!!
1. I will say that the battery needs to be settled with our use, so if you got bad batt life in first few days of use, it will become better later..
And also you can turn off feature that you don't use or hate it.. for me, I always disable vibration and that sound when typing with keyboard because that disturb me..
2. You can use the force close, it's just like force closing apps in pc.. you know, in pc we can force close app with the task manager via ctrl+alt+del.. it's just like that..
3. For me, I let the system handle it.. me too have same amount of ram used as in your picture, and the phone is still buttery smooth..
And you can disable (turn off) preinstalled app (bloatware) that you don't use, like me, I disable evernote, dropbox, instagram, etc. so they won't run in background..
4. I'm not experienced with apple icloud system, but I think they have same functionality.. That sync is provided so if you change your device or maybe lost it, you still have your data with you in the new phone, but I never use it so much because I can keep my phone well
5. I can't answer this as I'm not using whatsapp..
And 1 more :
Welcome to the android world
heres mine with auto brightness, gps high acc, bluetooth on, wifi on, display wallpaper full black, animations off, fast charging off - after a full day of work. rarely gets below 40%. exynos 910u variant.

first of all thank you for all the answers!
1. oh k, i hope its will be better. I considered to use the warranty and replace the battery but its make no sense because i bought the note before 2 days ago the battery is new from the box.
what do you recommend me to do?
and by the way to use auto brightness or to put it my self? and which way is the best way to charge the battery?
and i had 100% in in less then hour is drops to 88% only with whatsapp use, really strange.
and here is an update screenshot from my power save settings, 62% screen! i guess is the problem of my battery. so how can i make it lower? to 10-20 and even 30 its will make my battery better i guess no?
2. ok, and there is so many apps thats i dont have any idea what to do with them, devicetest, DCM,SERVICEMODE and alot more do not touch them? to close only Known Applications? and the most important, thats is effect on the battery life?
3. but evernote,instagram and all of this is in the manage applications also so whats its the diffrence and its effect on battery life also?
4. oh ok great!
5. k, and about smartswitch it is good? i used it to transfer contacts/notes.
thanks again!

i guess the screen is the problem of my battery how can i make it lower to 10-20 more/less? thats is the question.
do you think this is the issue thats my battery life poor?
yes its definitely your screen.
put it to basic, use a 256x144 full black wallpaper scaled up ( i attached one), turn animations off in dev options on your settings, set smart look on, set timeout to 10 seconds (dont worry smart look will prevent device shutting screen off while you look at it).
Just to show you i am not cheating and not using my note you can see my applications and memory usage, which is more than yours .

well one of your screenshot doesnt work and all the rest i belive you about the usage/ram

smart look you mean smart stay? to put it on? and screen timeout is on 15 seconds is the lowest.
and one more thingthe brightness should be on auto? and what is the auto adjust screen tone put it on? have alot settings in the screen settings i really dont know haha.
i will glad if you help me find those settings. i have to lower my screen percentage from 60% to 10-20-30 at least.
thanks!

thanks!
i did everything you said in the screen settings, but still in the power saving the screen is on 63% why?
When it should to drops? do i have to reset? charage again? wait? dont get it
and about the black image i dont want it on my wallpaper is that necessary?
about the dev options i enable it, when i set the scale off my screen become to red and flickering 10-15 sec until i stop the dev options. what is that?
so i didnt change the dev settings i did it off right now. what is this red flickering screen?
and btw i cant to disable/hide the dev options now right?
it will recalculate after 24 hrs.
the black screen is necessary - amoleds consume power on lit pixels.
scale off with animations off shouldnt cause flickering. sure you didnt switch anything else on ?

instead of manually force stop these app, you can open Settings > App manager > select apps and select Turn Off.
If you are not sure which app is safely can be turned off, you can post a list of apps here, I or maybe someone else will tell you which app can be safely turned off.
If you have rooted, you can remove them completely.

first of all thank you for all the answers!
1. oh k, i hope its will be better. I considered to use the warranty and replace the battery but its make no sense because i bought the note before 2 days ago the battery is new from the box.
what do you recommend me to do?
and by the way to use auto brightness or to put it my self? and which way is the best way to charge the battery?
and i had 100% in in less then hour is drops to 88% only with whatsapp use, really strange.
and here is an update screenshot from my power save settings, 62% screen! i guess is the problem of my battery. so how can i make it lower? to 10-20 and even 30 its will make my battery better i guess no?

1. How long is your replacement warranty ? I suggest to wait it til the last day..
That screen percentage is show how much you use it.. screen will go high if you use it.. but that 60+ % is something.. I use my device often, and it's only as high as 30 something percent
2. I'll leave something that I didn't know.. You better google it to see it's used or not..
3. If you connect those apps, it's surely will drain the battery.. but I'm still turn it off if I not use it.. just in case they run in background..
5. I haven't used that apps..

1. i bought 2 days ago and i have 1 year warranty for battery replace.
yes now the screen is on 53% i guess like zurkx said its recalculate every 24hr no? before 1hr its was 63% so i hope its will be less and my battery should be better no?
but you know how long the note 4 battery life should work for while playing music/games/notes/settings ? 6 hrs? 9 hrs?
3. oh ok.
and btw anyone know what happend me before when i enable the devs options? i mean the flickering screen for few seconds thats i talked about before few comments.
and how i can hide the devs options?
thanks guys!

I don't know why.

someone told me here to do this,
settings - developer options - windows animation scale off. transition scale off duration scale off. show all ANRs.
(you will have to enable dev options - click on build number in about device 7 times)
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
and when i turn off the scale animation the screen start to flickering on red colors, after 5-10 sec its stopped and never happend again.
should i have to worried? btw like i said i already removed/hide the devs options from settings with the guide thats i showed you.
i found a picture from another website of the same problem thats happend to me but for nexus,
the same thing happend to me but its was flickering.
the question if i have to worry about it and do a reset or to forgot it? its happend only one time.
thank you

Battery app auto optimise

Got the COI9 update a few days ago and today he a notification leading to disable auto kill type tool.
Which varient
Sent from my SM-G925P using Tapatalk
Not sure if it works like Greenify but my S6E is definitely smoother and last longer.
It appears to be an add on to the Smart Manager under the battery section
Agreed definitely smoother and quicker
Possibly a move towards Marshmallow as read today Google want everyone to be able to map battery usage by app or hardware
Few more screen shots is a disable, auto clean and the a frequency option
Anyone know how to get rid of the notification? I have enabled auto optimize, but every day I get the notification that my phone can auto optimize apps. Kinda annoying.
Press for a few seconds at the notification then tap app info and uncheck the show notifications.
Definitely, my Edge works as a champion until night, this is a great update!

Yeah wish it was that simple. Samsung made sure to remove that possibility from this app.
You know what, the more I use samsung phones, the more annoyed I get with them, cause they pull stupid **** like this. A few updates ago it was the weather app nagging with notifications, and when they fixed that, they just introduce another silly app to do the same stuff.
I'm done.
The "Always Power Saving" mode comes out to be the life saver to my phone
I saw a drastic change in it's battery life! Actually it works like a task-killer and since it's integrated with the system, we don't need to root our devices and install Greenify at all Thanks Samsung for understanding the needs of average consumers!
See the drastic change here:
I have to agree! My phone is alot smoother too after this update

FYI, one of my friend was constantly calling me at that time and making me difficult to take the screenshots so I had to turn it on for a couple of seconds

I was asking because on my edge, on COI9 it doesn't say "always battery saving" but rather "always optimize" and I don't get standby times that great. I thought that since there is a new firmware available Samsung changed something in the algorithm, hence the name change and techsammy was on the new one, hence the much better standby times (and maybe has something disabled that does wonders)
Ι have huge battery drain since yesterday with COI9....
Ιts getting better after a few days.
My battery drine in five cicle charge .coi9
Any solution
