first of all I am sorry about that picture
secondly the link is down
thirdly I dont think this would affect battery by any mean it may slow the cpu or gpu a little bit but wont affect dramaticlly as the screen will still be 1080 pixels hungry for power
cheers,

Update link and have some update version on this app.
this app can help more battery safe on G3 with coming with 4k resulotion. and help a bit 10-15% on my wife's M8.
After set new resolution try to re-boot phone with disable both option "apple default before power off" and "Re-apply setting after power on" ,then it will get small icon and screen on M8.
Now have the update version for improve setting

Custom settings have nothing new except what can be done otherwise also. I mean:
Close WiFi
Close Bluetooth
Close Data Sync
Brightness
Screen timeout

Thank you for your advice. I will improve it.
This app simply lets you shake your phone to turn the screen on (whilst the screen is off). Very simple, lightweight and easy to use
The interface simply lets you enable or disable Shakey Wakey and adjust the shake strength required to shake your screen on :highfive:
This app is super useful for quickly checking your lock screen or unlocking your phone when wearing gloves or if you have a broken power button or if you just like the ability to shake your phone to wake it. The feature is inbuilt into a few devices but not many so this app will be useful to most Android users!

I've included the lock screen notification too so that you know Shakey Wakey is available- let me know if you'd prefer to see this hidden in a future update.
More info and download available via the Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=shake.to.wake
Alternatively you can direct download the attached APK
*EDIT 24/04/2019 Updated APK to support newer versions of Android. Recommend that you disable battery optimisations for the app for a reliable performance. Responsiveness in background and screen off varies by device.
Very interesting! How is the battery consumption?

Battery consumption on my S8 has been good so far :good: - to be honest I haven't noticed any difference in my battery life when using this.
I'll try to gather better stats to include soon.
Hello,
My used S7 came in yesterday from Amazon and everything has been fine except the battery. The battery drains very quick. Earlier today the battery went from 100 to 80% in around 20 minutes and the phone was hot just on the home screen and browsing the internet..
The phone came with G930U software and I flashed it back to G930R4 which is what the phone is originally, then I flashed it back to G930U XAA because Oreo came out for it earlier today.
I disabled Always on Display, device scanning, etc. I even ran ADB and removed Gear Vr and bloatware apps.
Here's some screenshots:

I don't know why the Screen is using so much battery. Any help will be appreciated!

look at your SOT (Screen On Time) and also i used no auto brightness and set it up eith 0% brightness + lowerung resolution (720p instead of QHD) and using app callef Pixel Battery Saver to turn off some extra pixel. and don"t forget to make it black.
I'm wondering whether using high contrast black setting in accessibility option saves battery from draining? In case of oled displaye i'm sure it does. Not sure about qhd display in G7. What are your thoughts?
I'm a fan of black background (past windows phone user) and that accessibility option is spot on. Pics attached

well according to bunch of stuffs i read about how lcd screen works, some certain color doesn't ensure battery saving, unlike oleds (black color = turn off the pixel; it doesn't work that way with lcd screens, AFAIK)
i once read from a tech web (not sure which one, anandtech if i'm not mistaken) that G7's screen is the most energy efficient in brightness above 35%
Does anybody know where i can find the Display size option? i want to make it smaller but i only found the font size.
Like this one in xiaomi devices.

If you're referring to DPI, it's located in Settings\More Settings\Developer options look for Drawing and Minimum Width within Drawing section. You enter your numbers in there. Just remember the phone screen DPI is 388. Never experimented with it but give it a try and let us know. Don't know if the screen with default to an acceptable number if you go overboard with your numbers.

Thanks. thats exactly what i wanted. My default was 360 on Nex S global and i went to 403 and everything seems to be working. The stock camera beauty icon position is abit off but everything is working. No app crashes.
Now i can see more stuff on screen with everything smaller
also im not sure if its a placebo effect but my fingerpring is working better now or maybe im getting the hang of it.
Good to know you can go higher. I'll give it try and see if I get the finger scanner placebo effect too.
