for first thing, my rom is leon 4.3
I have done different settings to adjust the battery life and they allowed me to take the phone from morning 100% and at tonight (at 1.30) to 77%, which I am very satisfied.
My settings:
_ I left as the default power saving tweaks HTC
_ the Radio is 2.12.50.02_2
_ I removed the check of "mode switch to 3G" in the settings (very very important for people that does not use of 3G connections but only the usb connections with active sinc)
_ I removed the lock screen, so when I block it looks like this:
{
"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"
}
this allow to consume low memory and battery and I must only enter unlock buttom. (it's possible to do it installing the default lockscreen .cab and another edited (for example dinik lockscreen) and after that disinstalling them.
_then I put "decrease volume when arrive a calling"
_then I put automatic dimming backlight and reduction after 30 seconds, locking after 5 minutes.
Write me if you note any differents for the battery life.
Use my settings at your risk,although there aren't.

gps switch not working for me
hi, since samsung repleaced theirs 4x1 power saving widget to 4x2, i was looking for a repleacement and found Powerful Switchman
Widget is even better than stock one (configuration, saving settings, customalization) but from some reason pressing GPS toggle doesnt do anything
Im on XXKI4 (2.3.5)
any ideas?
Hi,
after trying many battery widgets and all were missing some features from others, i made my own inspired by those i tried.
i would like to receive some feedback from real users as i have only two devices for testing. in current state it is a 1x1 widget showing battery level called Tiny Battery Widget. the battery icon has three sizes: big (default), normal and tiny. colors and the levels at which the colors change are also customizable.
battery level is reported in 1% steps also for motorola phones. it is a precise value, not an estimate. it was reported to wrok on a droid x. please let me know if it works on other motorolas or not. are there any other phones that report battery level in 10% steps by default? report every issue in this thread, thank you.
after clicking the battery icon a system settings toggler dialog shows and users can switch some system settings:
- turn WiFi on/off
- turn Bluetooth on/off
- turn GPS on/off
- turn mobile data on/off
- turn airplane mode on/off (optional, enable in settings)
mobile data switch toggles only mobile data, mms will always work. it is compatible with APNdroid and if the APNdroid is installed it toggles the mobile data through it (so mms could be also disabled).
the dialog also provides a quick access to WiFi/BT/GPS/APN settings and can be automatically closed after some events e.g. WiFi connected/disabled, BT enabled/disabled (check the settings).
internet access is for Ads only and GPS is for quick enable/disable only.
uninstall with mobile data enabled or you will have to manually edit APN names to enable it (or just install back the Tiny Battery Widget or APNdroid to re-enable mobile data).
this widget was made for me, and released to public. looking forward to your feedback and enjoy!

How many time do you forget your tablet powered on?
I leave my tablet powered on every time I've used it.
Many times when I try using it again, I always find the battery dead!!
Yes my tablet (and perhaps any android tablet) goes in "deep sleep" (like standby) but it doesn't power off when I don't use it for a while.
To avoid this problem I've created this app, that helps you to poweroff ( shutdown / power off ) your tablet every time you leave it on, up to selected time.
This app checks the screen of the tablet. When you turn off the screen "Tablet Auto PowerOff" starts a timer to automatically shut down your tablet!
Configure it only one time, like any other Operating System ( Windows / Linux / MacOS ), then you can forget about it, the app will be silent and automatic.
You can set TWO types of controls:
*) Time Interval: you can set a time based control: when your screen will be off for a given time your tablet will be powered off.
*) Battery Level: You can choose to set the automatic shut down when battery is lower than a chosen battery percentage.
What are you waiting for? Just try this ultimate battery saver!

Thanks mate!
Installed this on my galaxytab (p1000) running cyanogenmod 10 and the jog dials does not work
Please contact me if you need help testing a fix.
hmm tell me how is it battery saver when basiclly the app run in the background all the time in the deep sleep
This should be in the Paid Software Announcement and Discussion forum.
Is there any configration file that i can edit time in manually and then activate it through the app? I found an xml but it only contained true or false for enable.
Hello everybody!
Would you like to use your tablet as a live billboard showing the current time as well as the RSS feed of your choice with large fonts that you could read from across the room ?
It is useful for:
a) Night watch
b) Glance at the screen from across the room when you prepare to leave to work.

One thing the app doesn't try to do is be another application that shows temperature, or integrate with aggregation services.
Features:
You have full control over most of the aspects of the application, here are some of the features:
a) whether to show the hour in bold or not
b) color for hour / minutes and 12/24 hours format
c) color and font size of the headlines
d) fade-in animation for the free version (2 more animations on the PRO version)
e) refresh interval
f) it does not integrate with Google / Facebook etc, you have to type in a valid RSS feed URL.
This uses the Daydream functionality added in Android 4.2 thus will not work if you have an older version of Android.
It does not install an Application icon, you have to go to Settings / Display, activate the Daydream functionality if it is currently disabled, then you will see a new entry - Wakeup Daydream. You can then configure it and set it as default.
I have set the Daydream to start when my tablet is connected to the charger.
Animations are nice to have, but they use a lot of the processor power. Please set the Animation to None if you want to minimize CPU usage.

PS: I have decided to write this app when one morning I had to make a long detour because the park was closed due to bad weather. Had I known this in advance when I left home (it was the first news on the local news website) I would have saved 10-15 minutes of my time. I like to leave my old Huawei tablet on the night stand and use it as a night watch + glance from time to time to it to check the news as I get ready to leave to work.
I hope it will save you some time and keep you more informed
I have developed this app a while ago when I was owning a Nexus device. I find it even more useful on my Note3 since having small hands its not comfortable to get to the Power button to put the phone to sleep. You may find it useless but at least it saves the Power button or helps when using a case.
HERE IS HOW TO USE IT
1. When the app is installed, for the first time the Settings screen will be shown. Simply press the Enable Admin Permission button and then drag the Stand by Icon from App's drawer where you want to have it. Each time you press the icon, the phone will go to standby.
2. If you want to use the Sleep Mode, go to Settings and press on the Zzzzz mode button. You can select which options to be disabled (Sound to Silent, Data Off, Wifi Off), on which interval of hours and how long the options will be displayed. If you check any of the options, next time you press the Standby icon, for a short period of time you will see 2 icons:
- the Sleep icon (with the moon) on it, if you press it, it will disable the options you have selected
- the Wake icon (with the sun) on it, if you press it, it will enable the options you have selected.
The icons are only displayed for the amount of time set by you. If you don't press any of them, the phone will go to standby as normal.

Sound useful, I'm gonna give it a try.
Thank you
Seems very usefull! There is no Bluetooth toggle is there? Cause I want to disable my gear when I am sleeping.. I do this by turning off bluetooth, and in the morning I turn it on again.. Any way you could add that?
Thank you guys for your words.
@Armazia: very good suggestion!. I have uploaded version 2.3 on Google Play which has Bluetooth toggle support So you can now easily switch Bluetooth off in the evening and back on in the morning. It should be available in a few hours.
Very nice
Thanks, new version 2.3 is live on Google Play.
