[HOW TO] Control battery drain on Nexus 5

Besides tweaking deep into the device OS, there are some general ways to limit the battery drain on your NEXUS 5.
Here is a list of some painless and easily executable steps to make the Battery Juice last longer.
1. Identify the culprit app
Poorly coded apps and the ones with a lot of advertisements are resource intensive. A trip to Settings > Power > Battery Use will reveal the applications consuming most of the battery.
Try to get rid of the apps that you rarely use or don't use at all. There's no reason to keep them in your list and share a sip of juice.
Keep the applications updated, as the updates include bug fixes which make them stable and efficient. Doing so will help you in extending the battery life.
2. Pre-installed applications
Your android device comes with many pre installed applications aka bloatwares. They keep running in the background as a background process and suck most of the battery juice. And in most cases you cannot delete that app. Thanks to the device manufacturer.
You can squeeze some juice by disabling these applications by taking a trip to Settings > Apps. Click on the application and then click Disable
3. Location Services
Using your location to serve you with Google Cards, and to help you find your way with navigation, uses GPS, the largest battery sucker. Turn off the location services from Settings > Location.
Turn off Google Location reporting from here which reports your location to Google time to time, to send you the location of nearby restaurants and other places to visit.
4. Auto Sync
Set apps to sync manually or set them to sync less frequently.
When an app is scheduled to sync, it'll use internet connection — and the process uses power in the background. Set the app to "manual sync" or to sync after a longer duration (3-4 hours). Email services and instant messaging services use auto sync. Keep an eye over Gmail, Yahoo and other applications.
Moreover, select to sync over WiFi instead of 4G/LTE.
5. Display Settings
Tweaking the display settings will provide a major boost to the battery performance.
Set a desktop background which is black in color
Don't always rely on auto brightness as its intensity is always larger than that required. Set the brightness manually to the lowest comfortable level. Using a brightness toggle widget is advised.
Reduce the screen timeout to 1 minute or less. Faster the screen goes off, the more juice you conserve.
Live wallpapers or the animated wallpapers should be avoided.

Always-On fitness apps: Speed, Pace, Heart Rate

Hi, I'm the developer of the Always-On family of apps. The apps display information like speed, pace, and heart rate while keeping the device awake. They all have features that minimize power consumption and prevent screen burn-in. Although I use the apps regularly myself and patch bugs as soon as I find them, many features and improvements have been implemented based on user feedback and feature requests, so I'm hoping I will get even more feedback on this forum. The posts to follow will contain app descriptions and screenshots. All the apps except Always-On Speed Pro have demo versions.
Note: the iOS version of Galaxy Store does not have paid apps. Unfortunately, there is only one way to install paid apps and it requires an Android phone and a couple of full resets of the watch. It should take around 10 minutes to get the paid apps you want running on your Samsung smartwatch paired with your iPhone:
0. Back up your smartwatch: on your phone, open the Galaxy Wearable app → About Gear → Back Up and Restore → Back Up Data.
1. Pair your watch with an Android phone (borrow one from a friend/family) instead of your iPhone. Note: this will cause a full reset of the smartwatch.
2. On the Android phone, sign into Galaxy Store using your Samsung account (the same one you used on your iPhone).
3. Purchase the apps you need in Galaxy Store on the Android phone, install them just in case. Make sure to check out my other apps not available on the iPhone, like Always-On Speed Pro or White Light Pro.
3.1 (optional). Rate the app.
4. Pair the watch with your iPhone again (this will cause another reset).
5. Restore your smartwatch to the previous state: on your phone, open the Galaxy Wearable app → About Gear → Back Up and Restore → Restore Data.
6. On your iPhone, go to Galaxy Store → Menu (three dots in the search bar, top-right corner) → select "My page" → "All". You should now see the apps you purchased and be able to reinstall them on your Galaxy watch paired with your iPhone.
Always-On Speed [Current Version: 5.2.0; Size: 266 KB; Price: $1; free demo version is available]
The application shows the following metrics while keeping the device awake:
• Speed in km/h, m/s, miles/h, or knots.
• Average and maximum speed for the last 60 seconds.
• Direction of movement (heading) in cardinal points and degrees (shown only when moving).
• Current time in hours and minutes.
Please read the following information before using the app:
• Swipe left to open Settings. Here you can change the unit of speed, speed limit, time format, font color and thickness, and screen orientation.
• Speed limit shortcut: tap the speed indicator once and use the bezel to set the speed limit.
• You will receive visual, audio, and tactile warnings when you exceed the speed limit. You can adjust the alert volume and vibration in Settings.
• Swipe up to change the font color to white and increase the font thickness for maximum readability under direct sunlight. Expect a higher power consumption.
• Press the Back button once to check the power consumption.
• The accuracy depends on cloud cover and your speed. The accuracy is very high when the sky is clear and your speed exceeds 20 km/h or 12 mph.
• The values are updated more frequently (every second instead of two seconds) if you use an activity tracking application on your phone (e.g., Strava or Google Maps).
• Numbers move up and down the screen once a minute to prevent screen burn-in.
• The display stays on until you quit the app.
• The app does not log your activity and does not connect to the Internet.
• This app has a Pro version and a free demo version.
Troubleshooting:
• If you cannot close the app using the Back button, press the Home button two times to get to the list of apps → Recent apps → Close all. Email the developer if this happens every time.
• Disable Samsung Health workout detection for the best, uninterrupted experience. Samsung Health → Settings → Workout detection.
• Make sure that GPS is enabled before starting the app. The app cannot enable GPS on your phone automatically. Note: do not use any power saving modes/apps on your phone because they interfere with GPS.
• If your watch has a built-in GPS, the app can use it but only if you disconnect the watch from your smartphone (for example, by disabling Bluetooth on your phone). Expect a much higher power consumption.
• Please contact the developer if you encounter a bug or if the app does not function as advertised. Feature requests are more than welcome!
There are several features that reduce power consumption:
• The rotating bezel on the Gear S2 and newer smartwatches can be used to adjust the screen brightness. Note: in bright sunlight the brightness level locks at 100% and cannot be adjusted.
• Green font uses half as many sub-pixels as white font, resulting in lower power consumption.
• If you stop moving, the device will start vibrating once a minute so that you don't forget to close the app after finishing your ride.
• Power consumption: < 10%/h. Depends on the watch model and ambient temperature.
• Disabling Bixby wake-up command may further improve battery life.
Always-On Speed Pro - speedometer, heart rate monitor, altimeter, gradient, and compass (heading) [Current Version: 5.3.0; Size: 275 KB; Price: $2.75]
The application shows the following metrics while keeping the device awake:
• Speed in km/h, m/s, miles/h, or knots.
• Average and maximum speed for the last 60 seconds.
• Distance traveled in kilometers, miles, or nautical miles.
• Duration of travel in minutes and seconds. Measured only when the speed exceeds 4 km/h or 2.5 mph.
• Current time in hours and minutes.
• Height above sea level (altitude) in meters or feet. Accuracy (clear sky): ±10m (±30ft) when using GPS (indicated by a dot, e.g. 953m.) and ±1m (±3ft) when using the Altimeter (no dot, e.g. 953m).
• Heart rate in beats per minute. Accuracy: normally very good; restart the sensor if way off. You can check the accuracy yourself before buying using the Always-On Heart Rate (Demo) app.
• Slope gradient (%), averaged over the last 5 or 10 seconds. Note: the accuracy depends on the speed and whether you use GPS or Altimeter to estimate altitude; very low at speeds below 10 km/h when using GPS.
• Battery percentage. Press the Back button once to check the power consumption (% or %/hour).
• Direction of movement (heading) in cardinal points and degrees. Shown only when the speed exceeds 4 km/h or 2.5 mph.
Please read the following information before using the app:
• Swipe left to open Settings. Tap to change the unit of speed or set a speed and heart rate (HRMax) limit.
• Swipe again to open the History tab, which shows the maximum and average values for the whole ride and one-minute intervals (current ride only).
• When riding a flat-bar bicycle, set the 'Screen Rotate' setting to 'left' or 'right' to align the main screen with your eyes.
• Swipe up to change the font color to white and increase the font thickness for maximum readability under direct sunlight. Expect a higher power consumption.
• Tap the speed indicator to zoom in on speed. Tap again to zoom out.
• Switch between heart rate and slope gradient by tapping the heart rate indicator.
• You will receive visual, audio, and tactile warnings when you exceed the speed limit or HRMax. You can adjust the alert volume in the settings.
• The accuracy of GPS-based metrics depends on your speed: the faster you go, the higher the accuracy. The accuracy of all metrics except altitude and gradient is very high at speeds above 20 km/h or 12 mph.
• The values are updated more frequently (every second instead of two seconds) if you use an activity tracking application on your phone (e.g., Strava or Google Maps).
• Numbers move up and down the screen at the start of every minute (e.g., 11:05:00, then at 11:06:00, etc.) to prevent screen burn-in.
• The display stays on until you quit the app.
• The app does not store your activity data and never connects to the Internet.
Two ways to calibrate the Altimeter (do this every time you launch the app or when the weather changes):
• Find out the actual altitude at the location where you start your rides (you can use the topographic/contour maps in MAPS.ME or Osmand on your phone or the pre-installed Alti-Barometer on your watch). Adjust the Pressure at Sea Level (SL) setting in Always-On Speed Pro until the estimated temperature matches the actual air temperature at your location. OR:
• Open Samsung's Alti-Barometer on your watch, tap ↺, then go to Settings → Manual Calibration. Do not enable manual calibrate, just copy the values you see there to Always-On Speed Pro.
Troubleshooting:
• Disable Samsung Health workout detection for the best, uninterrupted experience. Samsung Health → Settings → Workout detection.
• Make sure that GPS is enabled before starting the app. The app cannot enable GPS on your phone automatically. Note: do not use any power saving modes/apps on your phone because they interfere with GPS.
• If your watch has a built-in GPS, the app can use it but only if you disconnect the watch from your smartphone (for example, by disabling Bluetooth on your phone). Expect a much higher power consumption.
• Please contact the developer if you encounter a bug or if the app does not function as advertised. Feature requests are more than welcome!
There are several features that reduce power consumption (12%/h with HRM on and 9%/h with HRM off, as measured on a Galaxy Watch Active 2 44mm):
• The rotating bezel on the Gear S2 and newer smartwatches can be used to adjust the screen brightness. Note: in bright sunlight the brightness level locks at 100% and cannot be adjusted.
• Green font uses half as many sub-pixels as white font, resulting in lower power consumption.
• If you stop moving, the device will vibrate once a minute so that you don't forget to close the app after finishing your ride.
• Note: power consumption varies greatly depending on the ambient temperature.
• Disabling Bixby wake-up command may further improve battery life.
Always-On Heart Rate [Current Version: 5.2.0; Size: 271 KB; Price: $1.5; free demo version is available]
The application shows the following metrics while keeping the device awake:
• Heart rate in beats per minute.
• Time in hours and minutes.
• Duration in minutes and seconds.
• Average and maximum heart rate for the last 60 seconds.
• Battery percentage. Press the Back button once to check the power consumption (% or %/hour).
• History tab shows stats for the current workout: maximum and average heart rate for 1-minute intervals and for the whole workout.
Please read the following information before using the app:
• The app has a free demo version.
• Disable S Health workout detection for the best, uninterrupted experience.
• Wait (usually 5 - 10 seconds) until the app starts showing your heart rate. Do not start your workout before that to ensure accurate readings.
• Restart or pause/resume the app if it shows double the actual heart rate.
• Swipe left to open Settings. Swipe left again to open the History tab.
• Optimize your workout by setting your HRmax and HRmin. The app will produce visual, audio, and tactile warnings every 2 seconds when your heart rate exceeds the HRmax limit (or drops below HRmin). Google "HRmax" to find out how to determine your maximum heart rate.
• Set HRmin to 95% of your resting HR and the app will wake you up when you fall asleep.
• Tap the heart rate indicator to zoom in.
• Swipe up to change the font color and thickness. Note: the app consumes 10 - 20% more power when using the white font.
• All values are updated once a second, except for battery percentage and time (once a minute).
• The display stays on until you quit the app.
• If you have a complaint about the accuracy of the heart rate monitor, please direct it to Samsung. The app simply displays the values provided by the operating system.
• Numbers move up or down the screen in the first second of every minute (e.g., 11:05:00, then 11:06:00, etc.) to prevent screen burn-in.
• No internet connection or GPS is required.
• Power consumption: 8%/hour (measured on a Galaxy Watch Active 2 44mm).
There are several features that reduce power consumption:
• The rotating bezel on the Gear S2 and newer smartwatches can be used to adjust the screen brightness. Note: in bright sunlight the brightness level locks at 100% and cannot be adjusted.
• Only green subpixels are used, resulting in much lower power consumption compared to white font.
• The watch will vibrate if your heart rate does not go above 100 bpm for 5 consecutive minutes, in case the app was launched accidentally or you forgot to close it.
Always-On Pace [Current Version: 2.4.0; Size: 127 KB; Price: $1; free demo version is available]
The application shows the following metrics while keeping the device awake:
• Pace in minutes per kilometer or minutes per mile; calculated based on your speed of movement in the last three seconds.
• Current time in hours and minutes.
• Average pace for the last 60 seconds (wait one minute for the first correct value).
Please read the following information before using the app:
• Tap the pace indicator three times at an interval of at least one second to change the unit of speed (min/km → min/mi). The app will remember your choice next time you launch it.
• Change the time format between 12h and 24h by tapping the time indicator.
• Swipe up to change the font color to white and increase the font thickness for maximum readability under direct sunlight. Expect a higher power consumption.
• The display stays on until you quit the app.
• "Move" means you are not moving fast enough.
• The app does not log your activity.
• Make sure that GPS is enabled before starting the app. The app cannot enable GPS on your phone or watch automatically.
• If your watch has a built-in GPS, the app can use it but only if you disconnect the watch from your smartphone (e.g., by disabling Bluetooth on your phone). This inconvenience is caused by a bug in the operating system and not in the app itself.
• Numbers move up and down the screen once a minute to prevent screen burn-in.
• No internet connection is required.
There are several features that reduce power consumption:
• The rotating bezel on the Gear S2 and S3 can be used to adjust the screen brightness. Note: in bright sunlight the brightness level locks at 100% and cannot be adjusted.
• Only green subpixels are used, resulting in three times lower power consumption compared to white font.
• If you stop moving, the device will start vibrating every 60 seconds so that you don't forget to close the app after finishing your run.
Updated app descriptions
Always-On Speed Pro v4.0 is out:

• Other UX improvements and bug fixes.
Always-On Hear Rate (Version 4.0.0):
• Always-On UX 3.0: gesture navigation and settings screen (swipe left to open Settings).
• New feature: swipe up to change font color and thickness. Note: white font consumes more power.
• New feature: one-minute average.
• Samsung Galaxy Watch Active support: it is now possible to set HRmax and alert volume on smartwatches with no rotating bezel.
Not so new updates:
Always-On Hear Rate (Version 4.2.0):
• New feature: tap the HR indicator to zoom in.
• Triple tap returns! Tap the duration indicator three times to reset the counter.
• New option in Settings: turn inactivity warning on or off.
• New feature: set a minimum heart rate to maintain your target heart rate between HR Min and HR Max.
Always-On Pace (Version 2.4.0):
• New feature: swipe up to change the font color and thickness for increased visibility under direct sunlight.
• Bug fixes.
New features coming to Always-On Heart Rate and Always-On Speed Pro in 2020:
• Workout history.
• More customization options.
By the way, all the apps are on sale (up to 50% off, depending on the lowest price allowed for each particular country) till January 1st.
After almost a year, I finally got time to work on the apps! Big updates are coming soon!
In the meantime, all the apps will be 60% off (or less in some countries due to store restrictions) from Black Friday (2020-11-27) to Cyber Monday (2020-11-30)!
Always-On Heart Rate, Always-On Speed, and Always-On Speed Pro have all been updated to Version 5.2.0. To celebrate this, all of them will be on sale from Oct 2 to Oct 8 (up to 50% off, depending on the country).
Please note that these apps are not yet compatible with the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 and other Wear OS smartwatches. I need to rewrite them in a different programming language, and that will take a while.
A new update is out for Always-On Speed Pro (v5.3.0). This update brings a major new feature that makes the app massively more useful for cyclists: altimeter. Altimeter shows barometer-based altitude (±1m if properly calibrated) and gradient, which are way more accurate than GPS-based altitude (±10m) and gradient. Please read the updated app description and screenshots on how to enable and calibrate the altimeter. I'd greatly appreciate any feedback.
If you want to try new features weeks before everyone else, please email me to register as a beta tester.
Always-On Speed is finally available on the Galaxy Watch 4 and other Wear OS (including Wear OS 2.0) smartwatches. See this thread for more detail: https://forum.xda-developers.com/t/...and-compass-that-keeps-the-screen-on.4431331/

Top 5 EMUI 8.2 Tricks

Top 5 EMUI 8.1 Tricks​
1. Private Space
Settings > Security & privacy > PrivateSpace
Private Space is a separate account where you can hide all of your private files, photos, videos and apps. You setup this account with a pin and fingerprint password. After you're all set up, you can access your private space by pressing the fingerprint sensor which will log you in to your separate account. Your main fingerprint will be used for your primary account and a separate fingerprint will be used to access your private space. It's really fast and secure, which makes this a great EMUI feature.
2. Color mode & temperature
Settings > Display > Color mode & temperature
The Color Mode & Temperature adjustments let you fine-tune the colors on your screen. You can choose between Normal and Vivid mode based on how saturated you'd like your screen to be. Color Temperature adjustment will help you make your colors as accurate as possible. Adjust it until your whites are as white as they can be, blues are blue ect.
3. Screen Recording
Vol Up + Power
To activate screen recording, hold power + vol up. Then you will be asked to select your audio input. There is no limit to the amount of time that you can record, so just make sure you have enough space. I made a 1:20:00 recording and it ended up being 2.6GB. Your recordings will save as a 606x1280p resolution .mp4 file. The notch at the top is blacked out for a better recording btw.
4. Blocked MSGs and Calls
Phone Manager > Blocked
You can block calls and texts from specific people using the phone manager. You can also add keywords to a blacklist. Any msgs containing the blacklisted keywords will be trashed. Any number on your whitelist will override any of the blacklisted keywords. It's a really great way to give the users advanced control over the content coming in through msgs and calls.
5. Game Suite
Apps > Game Suite
If you like gaming without interruption, add your game to the game suite. Any apps launched through the game suite will run without having notifications kill your experience. Calls, msgs, notifications and everything else that might pop up will be blocked until your game is over.
Thanks for the tricks. I'm currently waiting for my device to come.

Few things i noticed after upgrading to Android Q

I made a post after getting pie update and now, here is an in-depth list of features of android Q in ZMP M1
all phones are not getting the same features
removing screen lock /fingerprint doesn't save you from password after update (at least it didn't work for me ) make a backup of everything in case you need to reset
list of things I'll suggest making a backup
WhatsApp chat
google photos
apps with es file explorer or any such file manager
settings + contacts+ call log+ messages from settings backup
notification led :
I like to turn it off all the rime even when charging but in android Q I couldn't find any way to disable it during charging
i was checking my old post about pie
1. Ambient Display : settings>display>advance>Ambient Display
It works only when you get a notification (its dope would like it being enabled always) though Daydream nowhere to be found.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
so ambient display is gone screensaver is back (edit: its renamed and moved to display lock screen area as new notification toggle)
volume panel:
change volume click more slider button and this is how to devolve UI it shows a big screen covering prompt to show sliders
font in developer settings only two options device default seems better
no third-party launcher supports the new gesture navigation but it is a problem on google's part
left earphone to week? there is audio balance in assessability settings
vibratin and haptic feedback in assessability
not the true dark mode in assessability settings dark theme and color inversion options are nearby enough to test what we could have got for dark mode
dark mode doesn't get turn back to a light mode in live wallpaper
assessability volume key shortcut might come in in handy for some but it makes a notification sound
there is charging sound and vibration in sound settings might want to turn it off, I have seen Samsung charging sound but Asus just makes the phone vibrate with a faint sound might scare people who don't know as it's on by default in android q
I am getting the rotate once button in navbar when autorotate is off I am using two-button navigation and a small circle when using gesture
the lockdown option to prevent unlock by any other means now also prevents notification to show can be enabled in display>lock screen display> show lockdown option
in gesture navigation you can swipe up and continue in an app to make it go smaller beyond it should go
to start android it asks for setup screen lock password it is stepping in the right direction but we should have it in kernel/bios as once entered in recovery mode anyone can reset a phone
QR code to share wifi available
still no way to monitor or block devices connected to your hotspot
default Bluetooth name QCOM-BTD Qualcomm's BLE chip?
widgets to settings shortcut there should be system UI tuner after opening it shows this funny warning message
apps notificatio>notification snoozing useless button more useless because cant see snooze option in youtube notification
battery saver got new auto turn off at 90% feature
battery picture in battery settings seems thick would prefer "ampere app" like stats in later versions
display don't have color temperature adjust
accelerated location something about data storage and data concent
high accuracy, battery saver, etc options for location not available
google play system update is 1 January 2020 please update it
security patch is 5nov 2019
privacy section is great but would like fingerprint prompt in autofill scenario as like for wifi sharing

camera app
in pro mode no shutter speed control option
max iso in pro mode is 1600 like in HMD global camera
auto video encoder is h264
portrait mode has extremely bad edge detection
night mode isn't that good
no fps option for video like 24,25,29.98,30,60 fps etc
no raw support in stock camera app resulting in assumption camera2api isn't enabled by default, though I enabled it in pie and it carried forward maybe so I am not sure.

In Android pie when you set the theme to dark mode and use live wallpaper it uses auto revert back to light mode now it doesn't.

nowadays phones are getting so powerful and people can take great pictures so shouldn't sRGB be enabled by default? like it does help semi-professional photo editing if we get a bit more color accuracy.

things are too much to explain / broken but I like to deeply analyze things and couldn't find an in-depth bug list while thinking whether I should get in beta so after upgrading I made one. it has some errors but I am working on it

I saw this problem also mentioned in the forums and I asked my friends if my phone sounds different and didn't got any negative report also I watched youtube for 4hrs on Thursday and didn't heard any difference
Would be interested to know how to turn off the lock screen. Lock screen none does not appear as an option.
Regards.
Gestures are enabled by Google after December security patch nova / most other launchers work with gestures. You can however use 2 button and 3 button navigation perfectly.
About that dark and black mode difference we don't have an amoled or led display it's an lcd so it won't make difference in battery but kind of personal choice. I like dark more than black.
The thing about wallpaper and dark thing - in android 9 dark/light theme was set by wallpaper color so live wallpapers needed to support color picker api to tell the device to keep light or dark theme. (it was half broken by asus as selecting dark theme should've disabled the api completely, but using pixel default live wallpapers they had that api so dark mode worked with them).
That srgb was being considered by Google they dropped it as it broke a lot of the things.
You can resize top and bottom windows just hold the middle line in centre and drag it where you want to put it. (I use 400 dpi so I get more steps).
It's because that feature is intended towards large screen tablets or foldables and Samsung made their own thing, (the free form window thing).
It's for devs making password manager apps or autofill apps those people need it for debugging, the logging levels are to make reports to find bugs, the max request is how many times in one field the autofill will attempt to fill in credentials. The max visible dataset is if you have multiple accounts to one app (take Gmail as example) so while trying to autofill it lists all of available accounts to show (I'm not an expert in this so I maybe wrong if needed confirm that.
About sound issue it is very real and use some good quality earphones or compare side by side with 060 running device.
