Hey guys.
For who already updated to v20a,
Have you guys found that the famous new ambient display is missing from our LG ROM.
and the lockscreen that lg made out of 5.0 is too busy to be used.
the unlock area takes almost half of the screen, and can not be hidden, all my notification has been squeezed to the upper half which makes my lock screen very messy. and the lock screen can not simply just using the same live wall paper as my home screen is using.
So my solution for now is still using my ACdisplay as my lockscreen to get all my app notification, but this app hasnt been optimize for 5.0 and it became the most battery consuming app, it takes almost 25% of the battery which is so annoying.
and i dont get heads-up notification for most of my apps, is this just me or you all dont have this?....................
any suggestion? or better alternatives to be using?

Heads up works fine for apps that actually use this feature - most apps have not been updated to work with heads up yet, its not something that every app automatically does.
Your comments on the lock screen are correct, but sadly this was always going to be the case, we had the same problem when jellybean first introduced lock screen widgets, it took a very long time for everyone to change their own UI's to properly accommodate that feature.
I am not sure I know what you mean by ambient display feature?
Edit: Ah the wake up feature - yeah, that is kernel dependant so it is something we could probably put back in with mods etc but it might impact battery life if not done properly - this might be why LG decided to not include it (that and it might be seen to be copying a Samsung feature).

hey man thanks a lot for all the answers,
and your patient to read my crappy English haha
umm i guess i will go back to acdisplay for now, hopefully they will optimize the app for 5.0 soon.
now my battery usage seems weird.
Acdisplay 32%
hangout 22%
google services 13%
others
and now screen only takes 3%.........
guess this is all due to optimization of the apps?
Remember that percentage is a zero sum game. As other things use less power, other things will use a greater percentage of the total, even if not more actual power.
Hey guys new problem.
My g watch is not showing any notification card. All apps
Any suggestions?
Ambient Display, like on the Moto X?
It's not very smart on the G3, as it uses a IPS display. Moto X uses AMOLED, which only lights up non-black pixels, so the Active Display consumes very little battery, while ours consumes almost the same whether it's full black or bright white.
Yeah, why does LG choose to remove features that we could use in their Android L editions? Also the features like L's new battery saving seems to be missing. Idk why they don't just leave all the features in there.
I totally miss having exposed framework.
I have the DS Bat saver, greenify, boot manager and toast notification.
Hey guys,
Now that most of you guys have probably flashed-up Lollipop on your Moto G (2nd Gen)s, I have taken the liberty to put together a guide to increase your Battery Life and Performance of your Devices.
As of now, this guide is NON-ROOT based. (Rooting is still unstable, Bootloops : Yuck!). And, I'm a big fan of the KISS (Keep It Simple Stupid) concept so thats how this is gonna go:
BASICS:
1. Use the Toggles!
Now that Lollipop has provided even easier access to a wide variety of Toggles, its only fair that we use them. So toggle off whenever you're not using WiFi, Bluetooth, Location etc..
Swipe Down with 2 fingers and see for yourself!
2. Mobile Data
Again.. Use the toggle in the Notification Centre to toggle on and toggle off when not in use.
Use 2G instead of 3G if you're only IM-ing (WhatsApp,Hike,Hangouts etc..). To switch the Cellular Data type, Tap and hold the Data toggle in NC to open the Cellular Network page, on the top right corner, tap the 3 dots and select Mobile Networks. Here use the Preferred Network Type to switch between 3G and 2G.
3. Battery Saver
Believe it or not, Battery Saver is not just a name-sake feature anymore like in KitKat, It actually works this time in Lollipop. Keep the Auto-Enable for Battery Saver ON at 15%.
You can access the Battery Saver by using the 2 finger swipe down from top, tap and hold the Battery Percent in the NC to open the Battery Settings page. Now tap the 3 dots and select Battery Saver.
When going on a trip or drive, turn on the Battery Saver while Driving (Unless you're expecting some notifications) and disable them when you reach your destination. Its so easy to disable as it displays a persistant notification in the NC and the Lockscreen when it is active. Just swipe down on the Notification and tap on Turn Off Battery Saver to disable it.
4. Use WiFi whenever possible
Wifi uses less battery power than 3G.
A power consumption chart in Decreasing order of Battery Consumption is:
3G>2G>Wifi
So choose wisely.
5. Auto-Brightness - DO NOT USE!!
Screen brightness is always one of the biggest battery drains on your device. And although auto brightness sounds like a saviour, IT IS NOT! It uses more processing power to keep track of the ambient lighting to auto adjust the brightness which defeats the overall purpose.
6. Disabling Apps
Apps can run in the background without you even knowing, hogging up memory and battery. Disabling the ones you dont need can help big time.
Go to Settings> Apps and slide all the way to the left to the All category, select the unwanted app and hit Disable. You can re-enable these apps anytime also. My suggestions would be to disable the Moto apps - Assist, Migrate, and Help, and also any of the Google apps you dont use such as Magazines, Newsstand, Movies, etc.
PRO-TIP: If you're willing to endure the 10 minute boot after rooting for once, then root your device using the latest SuperSU, Install any Root App Uninstaller and Uninstall the Un-Neccesary apps. You can then do a Full UnRoot from the SuperSU app and reboot. Voila.. Back to Normal and no more unnecessary app (I dont like to call Moto Apps as BloatWare cause these apps actually provide some usable functionality!)
7. Customizing with Efficiency in Mind
Use launchers like Google Launcher, Nova, Apex and GEL. These launchers are light weight and do not use much processing power.
Heavier launchers such as Go Launcher, Themer, Next Launcher 3D use a lot more RAM and can slow down your phone + drain battery.
8. Google Now
Nothing much to say here... If you dont use it, TURN IT OFF!!
9. Google Sync
Check your sync settings to make sure you're not syncing stuff you dont need. Go to settings>Accounts and tap Google, then tap your account name. Uncheck any of the services you dont use, for example Books, or Photos, or Google+. Do the same for anything else in you Accounts section.
10. Location
Again, turn On when in use and turn Off when not in Use. Use the toggle in NC!! Go to Settings>Location>Mode and make sure its on Battery Saving if you're insistent on keeping it ON.
Turn off Location Reporting in Facebook AND Facebook Messenger. In fact if you don't absolutely need it, delete the Facebook Messenger app altogether. The Facebook app will still give you your message notifications just fine without it.
11. RAM cleaner/ Booster Apps
These DO NOT WORK! They clean the RAM and drink it up again. And if they have those floating buttons, they are Worse!!
So thats most of it.. I'll keep updating this post with ROOT-based tips once a Stable Root is available for Lollipop.
Shoot back with comments and suggestions (and Criticism as well!)
Cheers

Eventhough Greenify works without root....
I was going to add that but then held back as the true potential of greenify could be better achieved with root. I'll surely add this when I update this guide with Root based methods.
Bro are you using titan rom(5.0.2) or are you on 5.0.1
Also the reason I'm on kitkat is xposed
and lastly can you change the dpi manually(I'm loving 240) and reduce the minimum brightness to 1 instead of 10(I read manga before I go to sleep)
Edit: happy new year bro

I checked out the Titan Prime 1.2 but now am on 5.0.1. I'm waiting for a more stable and feature rich version of the Titan Prime.
Motorolla says 3g consumes less power you say 3g consumes more power, who is right?
By the way thank you, this point was also in my mind regarding auto brightness I was already against the point of auto brightness, because I really don't like high brightness so I've set it on a constant percentage.

Just my 2 cents : Google Now Launcher drains a lot of battery irrespective of the fact Google Now is installed/disabled
Hi all,
I need help and advice. I absolutely love the S7 Edge. Had it since the first day it came out. Had the Golden color for a while and then sold it to get the black one. What I realized on both devices is that battery life isn't all that great. Now having said that, before I pass judgement it might be because the apps I use might be at fault. I've monitored the usage in the settings and always saw that 'Android operating system' and 'Android system' were usually on the top of the battery Consumers apart from the odd time that the screen was. They were usually anywhere between 15 to 25%. Recently I also started seeing 'Google play services' on this list with consumption near the 10% and semetimes even higher.
I suppose the apps I use aren't all that different from what the norm is. I tried to see what was keeping Google play services occupied so much. I track my fitness with Google fit as step counter. I deleted that thinking it would help. I now use the s-health built-In step counter. Syncing it with Lifesum. Could this be using so much battery?
According to GSam I get around 4h20m screen on time.
Or am I maybe expecting too much from this battery?
The mate 8 outlasts it by a far margin.
I just think I'm doing something wrong every time I hear a reviewer say that their battery is great.
Many thanks all
I get about 6 hours screen on time at full brightness and 25 hours standby.
Disable Always on Display if you have it.
Check to see if you have Google play services auto updating? also try clearing its cache.

Hi Hi,
I cleared the Cache of the Google Play services. I honestly do not know how to stop the auto updates. Always on Display is off. Edge screen is Off. Bluetooth is on the sync with my watch.
This is the second phone that does this so its obviously something I am doing wrong....
Hey,
I have the S7 Edge on the t-mobile service. The first few weeks of using the phone my battery was total ****... like in my pocket on the drive to work I'd lose 10% battery life.
This is what I did to greatly improve it, you probably already know some of this stuff. Try it like this and you can slowly turn on the features that you miss or want.
Go to Settings>Battery>More>Optimize Battery Usage - Check all your apps to minimize background activity
Go to Settings>Battery - Turn on Power saving On
Settings>Edge Screen - Turn off Edge Panels, Edge Feeds, Edge Lighting (Only if you don't use these)
Settings>Advanced Features - Turn off Pop-up view gesture, Smart Capture, Palm Swipe, Direct Call, Smart Alert and Easy Mute
Settings>Display -Turn off Smart stay, Always on Display, Night clock, Keep screen turned off. Then set the Screen mode to Basic
Now go to the app store and install Nova Launcher and Package Disabler pro. Setting Nova launcher to my default helped out with battery life by itself, plus you can customize more home screen options with it. In Package Disabler hit the 3 dots at the top right then press Disable all bloatware. You can also look on the forums here for a list of packages that are safe to disable, there are also some system things you can turn off.

Thank you so much for taking the time and helping me. As of now I'm getting 5h flat screen on time and battery remaining is 3 %. I'll try these steps and see if I can improve it. Perhaps im hoping for impossible numbers when it comes to screen on time?
Thanks
No problem, glad to help. It was really frustrating when it happened to me so I know how you feel. The screen on time really does depend on what you're doing though. I can sit there browsing the web or facebook app all day, but If I am playing a lot of games it's like half the length.

I highly recommend not picking to disable all bloat. That will disable stuff you really do need like Samsung Pay etc.

Plug your phone in when playing games or get a USB portable charger. Games sip battery like nothing else.

You are going way too far. Power saver mode is going to reduce performance - totally unnecessary. Disabling edge features... up to you. A gimmick anyway. Advanced features should really have no effect - most only matter when the screen is on anyway. AOD, somewhat of an impact. Screen mode to basic has zero effect. That only changes the color profile...
Would not disable all bloat. Go through the thread specific to this and find out what you should leave enabled.
Great info here. Just did the cache clear for all apps and system. Currently still having usual drain but will report back in a day or two.
Hi all,
So the question then becomes..... What kind of battery life would I expect to see? Still using the phone primarily for media consumption and to track fitness. Medium use sees me through the day. But running around 17% at 7 pm. Built in battery manager tells me I have 20 hours on battery. This good or average?
Thanks all.
Feedback Thread: Tell Honor What You Want in Future Software Updates!
How is everyone enjoying their Honor 8? I was curious about what everyone wanted to see in future updates or maybe the next version of the phone.
Some things I'd like to see
Android 7.0
App Drawer
More Theme Options
Power plan scheduler as said by @Droiderr at http://forum.xda-developers.com/honor-8/how-to/power-plan-scheduler-t3482030
App drawer,
Good reflective design aesthetics,
Better RAM Management without closing more recently used apps,
Default VoLTE support and support for all LTE bands in that region.
I would like to see android 7.0 for sure
And I know it may just be me but I would like the phone on just standard android not emui.
My only other gripe is ram management and the way it handles closing recent apps.
To use smart keys for home, back or app switch
1. Better screen calibration by default.
2. Double tap the screen to wake.
3. Extend the functionality of the smart key. Eg. -While the screen is on, tapping on the fingerprint will function as back key. This is usefull for app that use full screen such as browser.
-Tap and hold to turn off the screen. This is a feature that is available on meizu device which is very useful. No need to press, just tap and hold the fingerprint and boom the screen turn off.
4. Performance and smart powerplan shortcut on the shortcuts tab. Might as well add 720p(rog mode) toggle.
5. Better camera interface. The current interface seriously need some redesign! Why the hdr is seperated from auto mode? The pro/manual mode uses ring adjustments which is annoying. Why not a simpler like a straight horizontal line for focus,exposure time,wb,iso adjustment?
6. Fix the damn camera settings! Whenever I open up the pro mode, the auxiliary light always turned on. It doesnt save my setting! Same goes to the image adjustment.
1080p stabilization without losing so much quality of the video. It looks worse than a normal 720p video.. and ability to zoom in the videos with using all the 12mp sensor, not just 'software zoom'
7.0
Better ram management
Better notifications! Quick reply from notification shade, not just in heads up.
Lockscreen improvements, reply from lockscreen
Update themes from theme app. So I don't have to go download the updates themes and put them in theme folder
I would like to see Android 7.0.1 as soon as possible.
Need to be able to change the notification volume independently of the ring volume, just like on my old Galaxy S5. Notifications should be on the volume list with its own slider!
center clock mod.
ambient display and double tap to wake.

I agree with everyone! This is a great phone but EMUI 5.0 update needs to come soon!
Something that hasn't been mentioned is discarding of notifications on the lock screen, e.g. swipe to the right.

Yup. Need to access Notifications and Quick toggles in the notification bar from lock screen like the one in Moto.

Is there any way to show current battery status on the second screen when phone is in standby?
I hope theirs a way to add it, hate having to unlock phone to check battery percentage
Yes this is driving me nuts as well....would love to see the battery percentage on second screen and not just the battery icon.
I agree. Wish there was a way to display %

I found a work around of sorts for this. It's not perfect but, it works decent. You'll need to get the free app called "Battery Mix" from the Google Play Store.
After install, go into the app settings (icon style wheel (top right)->settings button will appear underneath). The very first setting at the top will be for the Notification Icon. It will say: "Remaining battery icon displayed in the status bar". Make sure this is checked. Then choose an icon style to appear in the status bar if you haven't already. I prefer the Round Rectangle one, personally.
Keep in mind, if you have a lot of uncleard notifications, it may not show in the second screen until you do so.
This app also has a very nice battery alarm feature that allows the app to notify you by notification and sound (even vibration and your phone LEDs) when your phone reaches or drops to certain charge level percentages. This is very handy to remind you to either plug in the charger, or unplug to prevent overcharging. All the best! LGman
One would think that after 8 years in the wild, Android would allow you to have JUST the battery percentage on the status bar. We can't even hide the stock icon without the help of an app or root. Sad really.

And it's not as if they can't, Samsung proved that with their Note 7 where an update changed the battery icon to green
Persistent notification icon + a tasker task that'll only keep the notification active during screen lock will work. It'll take approximately 13 hours to get it to work properly and not bug out, but once you go through that arduous process for a negligible improvement you'll feel satisfied.
But seriously - this is the only way I can see you getting it done. I'm annoyed that the goddamned STOCK clock app won't show a timer on the 2nd screen, which is such an oversight it kills me.
Well, you could just install nova launcher and hide notifications bar and ta daaaa. Time, signal, and battery w/ percentage in 2nd screen. Your welcome. Lol.

Doesn't work for me. My second screen shows signal, time, and battery icon. And now I can't control my second window, ta daaaa.
i've been trying to find a way to do this as well. glad to see i'm not alone. i thought maybe an xposed module would do it..
It isn't perfect, but I did make a Tasker flasher for the 2nd screen that displays the current battery % every 10 seconds. Instructions on how to get it into Tasker are in the first post (the instructions are for a different ticker, but they apply to all of them).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=69401641
In that topic, I also have a new text message (done) and a missed call (possibly WIP) flasher too.

I'm confused, I can always get battery percentage to appear on the status bar of all my android phones. It's just unchecked in battery settings.
This thread was about putting it on the second screen which I don't believe is more than 2 years (still plenty of time though).
The second screen is useless to me. They should make it E-Ink or OLED, saves battery.
I rather have a notification light. Unless i'm using it wrong?

You missed the keywords "just the percentage" as in.. hide the battery icon and only have percentage showing... Without the use of an app or root. And it was a generalized statement pertaining to either the main screen or the second.

Yeah. Your right. That's why I disabled it.
Second screen was a brilliant idea. But they came so short on modifications.
