Very high "app usage" battery drain - ZTE Axon 7 Questions & Answers

Is it normal that the app usage drain is over 50%???
"Taschenlampe" is flash, and it was accidently on for 3h, so thats why it's 7%. But the rest??

Mine is the same.

@Kantastisch,
Hi, are these APPs download from the third party or not? If you download many APP, there is no doubt such APP would cost your phone's battery. Also you can choose the better battery usage in the settings. It can be helpful if you choose the right battery save modes.

Are you running MF5.0 too ? If so, lock the app in system/app/flash/flash.apk or just delete it. I guess it's that one making trouble
I removed it in mine .

OK, What Did I Do Now!

Bragged to the apple world how great my battery is, now I musta turned something on that's killing it quickly.
Look at the percentage of Android OS in the first, then the 2nd screen shot.
How do I figure out what is killing it?

OK I did that, but I'm sure I did not put all three of the checkmarks on, (I think 1 or 2 of them were checked when new).
My guess is that it's "google location service" ?????

No I have not, and would you mind telling me how to turn off OTA updates, (so stuff doesn't get installed without my knowledge). thx
Who knows of a good app that can let the user know which apps are drawing how much juice?

1. What firmware are you on? Settings > About phone. Say the build number
2. To turn off updates Settings > About phone > Update. But it never gets installed without your knowledge.
3. Install Wakelock detector (from play store) or BetterBatteryStats (search for it here on xda)

"Use wireless networks" ....................... WOW, what a battery killer !!!
This little check mark makes an unbelievable difference in battery productivity. I'm mean "really", (like a whole new device with it unchecked).
I am on Ml9.
Do you folks have a preference as to which battery app I should download?

Greenify now working without ROOT!

As quoted on their v2.0 update,
What's New
v2.0 (rolling out)
Greenify now works on non-root devices! Try out the non-root working mode (without automatic hibernation due to privilege restriction).
Shortcut "Hibernate All" can now be created also from main menu in Greenify.
Greatly improved the stability of auto-hibernation service, especially on Android 4.4+.
Bugfixes.

Now if only they can get TiBu to work without root, I'd no longer have a reason to root my device..
Let me decide which apps / carrier bloat I want on my device (read: none of it).
Seems like I still can't hibernate some apps. I can't get it to work.

Excellent but you need to close apps

that is really good news, but what does automatic hibernation do?

Automatic hibernation, automatically hibernate apps that you manually set to hibernate?
Oh yeah, guys, they are still rolling out the v2.0, I still have 1.99 so it still doesn't work.

automatically hibernate what I already manually hibernated? I am sure that there is something missing
or do you mean that it will re-hibernate the apps after opening them or restarting the device?

Yes, it will re-hibernate the apps after opening or after using them. BUT auto-hibernation doesn't work with non-rooted phones.
Still waiting for the v2.00
Totally unusable without rooting.

Only useful to stop battery drain if you know u will be without a charger four a long number of hours.
Otherwise more hassle than its worth.
What does the paid version give you? And is it worth it.

Mine is working and my Z1 is not rooted, it just ask to force stop the application first, then it will hibernate the app. Check it again.

Well, if you have any unwanted apps that runs on the background and eats the juice of your battery, greenify will put them to sleep.

My point is that it's more hassle to do all the force closing than recharging more frequently.
The only time it's really helpful is if u will be without a charger for a really really long time and you have no choice but to slow down battery drain.
I have root and Paid Greenify, my Battery is amazing and Paid Version adds nice Features.

Paid is awesome - hibernated AND still get push notifications.
Best app for saving battery
---------- Post added at 09:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:57 AM ----------
Once all apps are force closed by the app... The drain is almost zero.
There is an option to automate it

There is an option to automate it (for non rooted). You still have to select the "hibernate now" manually but it will then automatically force close all the apps selected by you for greenifying..I have had this since about 3 months or so. It works only on my Xperia Z1 but not on my Galaxy Tab (GT-P3113) (which is on 4.2.2)

Yes.
I use it frequently now.
That's a pretty useful add-on. It's turned a useless app into a useful one.

Any App/Mod That Display's Battery Percentage In Notification Shade?

Hey everyone,
I'm rooted and running renovate ice rom and I would like to know if there is a mod/xposed module or whatever that would display the battery percentage in the notification shade. Maybe besides the clock and date. I want something clean and basic.
Samsung have already included a setting for this.
Settings>Display>Status Bar>Show Battery Percentage
Why do you want to install an extra app that will add to your bloatware and incrementally slow your phone down a bit?
I won't recommend installing an app just for that.

Going by the Q's in the Renovate thread I think he (& they) want the percentage ONLY - they want to get rid of the battery symbol as well.
One wanted the %'age inside the batter as well...

It'll walk you thru setting up permissions when you first install the app, as for the battery it's one of the quick toggles you can enable

Nova 3i Bugs

Hi all!
I am a Samsung user genuinely. But since my last phone broke down, it broke my budget too.
Got Nova and here are some bugs.
1) Bluetooth speaker issue. the sound is way late than the video. (Edit: Fixed by going in developer options and changing "Bluetooth audio codec")
2) Camera is not having any kind of stabilization.
3) It hangs like hell and u r not left with any option. Not even restart.
4) Not the fastest 4gb ram phone.
5) The interface of the phone is laggy af ( can be fixed by installing 3rd party launchers).
6) Processor temps are never lower than 60 degree C. Idk if its fine or not but antutu temp sensor always shows it in red text.
These are the ones I could find... tell if u have any.. or at least have found fix for any of them.
BTW...
Today got an update of 288MB which is currently downloading. Hope it fixes some bugs.

Lol I kinda like mine, except for a few things I guess but I got it for a good deal, well I reckon anyway - $380 NZD.
What did you replace it with?
Hello! These issues, especially the Camera app being buggy, are common.
The performance issue, please go to settings > Battery > Battery Usage and see which apps are using a lot of background usage, then click on the app and there's written 'App Launch', click on that and toggle off the 'Manage Automatically' and also toggle off all of the toggled on things to prevent the app from consuming background usage.
On this device you can also disable/uninstall many apps that if u dont need, please do so, here are some list of apps you can disable which would improve performance:
1. Gmail (replace with another mail client like FairEmail)
2. Youtube (replace with another application like NewPipe)
3. You can also disable playstore and the main Google app.
4. You can also disable Google Play Services, this consumes a lot of background usage, more than HMS! You can replace playstore with F-Droid and you can get FOSS apps.
5. Replace Facebook with Frost for Facebook, or disable background access to it from the previous performance issue guide.
I am not getting performance issue on mine, so make sure u check which apps are using background/battery usage a lot so you'd find out.

Disable android battery optimization mechanism

Hi, I want disable Battery Optimization mechanism fully.
I have put some applications like Orbot and Call Recorder to do not optimize app, But android was close these apps same as it put on optimize...
I use Greenify to put app in Hibernate mode and want disable android default battery optimization because it has problem (May just for me).
Is there anyway to disable this feature? With Magisc or any soft/hard way?!
Model: SM-J500H
OS: ViperOS
Android version: 8.1.0
ViperOS version: 5.1
Thanks.

I think its related to android battery optimization... Because I use Greenify recently, and before I use Greenify have this problem too.

It kills apps because the device cant handle it. Its 1.5GB of RAM on a 4 year old budget device not a new flagship which has tons of RAM and is able to keep apps open.
Your expecting too much from this old slugger.
The only way you can have your apps always open is if you get a new device which has alot more RAM

RAM is too low dude, they get killed anyway! If You run app witch eat a lot of ram, your app will be killed, if you don't use your phone for like 1h your app will be killed! And you can't do nothing about it.
