I'm having trouble finding the settings for Power Saving Mode on my S8 anymore. I might have disabled it with Package Disabler, but I disabled a ton of things, so I'm not sure which is relevant.
Anyone know which package works directly with Power Saving Mode?
Currently, if I try to hit the Power Saving Mode toggle in my notification drawer, it just says "turning off medium power saving mode" everytime I hit it. Here's a video to show what I mean: https://streamable.com/f7rlc
I also can't find any battery or power saving settings in the Settings App.

I've had my S7 Edge G935A since release date. I love this phone, never had a problem until yesterday.
So I left work placing my phone in my pocket checked the time after departing since the meeting ran late all looked good on my phone.
walked into my buddy's house wanted to show him a picture, and my entire screen was greyscale, I thought maybe extreme powersave got turned on in my pocket, so I swipe down to access quick settings, and they are all gone, the gear is there. I tap the gear, and settings comes up:
Wifi
Bluetooth
Mobile Networks
More Connection settings
Edge screen
Battery
Help
NO Other settings no way to swipe just access to those settings,
Click my list of apps and only the like the default gapps.
I have not rooted, or done any major things to the phone I did use adb to format the memory card as internal storage.
I searched google and only found options to turn on greyscale, but I had no access to accessibility in settings, no access to power saving mode.
If I restarted my phone it would come up in color then go greyscale.
I took it to AT&T they stared at it for 30 min before recommending a factory reset.
I didn;t want to but I didn't know what else to do.
Has anyone seen this, know what I did, or how to undo it?
It's fixed now I'm just wondering how it happened and how to undo it if I somehow do it again
Lol you just activated ultra power saving mode or emergency mode.

So how do you turn that off without factory wiping it, when it won't give you access settings or apps?
I thought Ultra savings mode too but couldn't turn it off because I didn't have access to settings

Emergency Mode Emergency
mode conserves your device’s remaining power when you are in an emergency situation. Emergency mode saves battery power by:
• Changing the color of the screen to grayscale.
• Restricting application usage to only essential applications and those you select.
• Turning off Mobile data when the screen is off.
• Turning off connectivity features such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth ® .
Note: When Emergency mode is turned off, the Location settings may stay the same as they were in Emergency mode. Activate Emergency Mode To activate Emergency mode:
1. Press and hold the Power key to display the Device options window.
2. Tap Emergency mode > Turn on. • When accessing for the first time, read the Terms and conditions. If you accept them, tap the Checkbox, and then tap Agree. Confirm when prompted.
Turn Off Emergency Mode ?
From the Emergency mode Home screen, tap More > Turn off Emergency mode
This is what it was, but somehow I got the Google Now launcher while in emergency mode, so I didn't have the more option to turn it off.
Thanks I knew someone here would know

When you have either of the modes activated, there is a "more" button on the upper right of the screen (the actual screen area, not the notification). Press that and there should be a turn off option.
I'm having a weird issue where particular apps say my phone is in "power saving mode" when it is not.
This includes S-Health, Google Play Newstand and Ajusto insurance app.
How can I fix this? Power Saving Mode is off!
As title suggests. I would like to know if there are any modules or other ways to get marshmallow's ultra power saving mode (with black and white screen and all) on nougat.
I'm really not satisfied with max power saving mode of nougat. Hoping to get a reply from you guys.
Thanks in advance, seems like no one asked about this yet?
It's still there, but you have to go to Settings > Device Maintenance > Battery and change power saving mode to MAX, to enable it.

Mate i clearly stated ultra power saving mode. not max power saving mode. These 2 are different. Max power saving mode won't switch screen to black and white. This used to make a huge difference.
I guess this is not possible then. Can close thread.
UPSM on S7 Edge
It is called Emergency Mode now.
If you push the button to turn off and select Emergency mode in stead of off then you will have greyscale like you are talking about
anyone else having this issue ? i thought it was me at first but its done it more than once i used smart switch switching all my info from a s8 plus i dont know if something is corrupting it or i have a setting wrong

Yeah he told you to disable ADAPTIVE power saving off if you want to keep medium power saving on most of the time.
Oh u cant use bolth at the same time?
scroll down from home screen to open quick settings > tap and hold power mode > set adaptive power saving to off (it's the slider at the bottom).
So it's either one or the other? Not bolth at the same time?
Is the power mode supposed to turn off when u charge ur phone? I keep on having to toggle it back on when I take my phone off the charger I'm coming from a s8 I never had this issue before it was always on charging or not charging
There anything in the settings to stop this coming on?
Yeah, you can disable Adaptive battery saving, but why would you?

You're right, but you can solve that by:
-Using the quickpanel toggle to enable optimised
-press it again to enter medium power saving, when asking the configuration untick "disable background data"
-go back in battery, set optimised again, enable adaptive power saving
Every time it goes in medium power saving it will no longer block background data.
