[Completed] issue with background running app (emui) - XDA Assist

looking for help on a certain issue. Related to the following 2 apps:
1) one weather
2) applock
I have one of the widgets my homescreen which displays the weather & the time. On my op3 (and other non huawei/honor devices i've owned) it works fine & the time is always accurate but on my huawei (p9) and honor 7 the time seems to stop keeping track.
i think it must be something to do with what apps are left running when the screen i switched off & the interference with emui.
internet is not required to be on for the time to display correctly a on my op3 it keeps telling the right time even if wifi and data are off but on the huawei/honor devices it only keeps up to date with the time when the screen is off if data/wifi is enabled.
- I have done the following in settings:
advanced > battery manager > protected apps (allow apps to keep running after the screen is turned off) > i have enabled 1 weather so it is allowed to keep running
- auto closing of power intensive apps is disabled
settings > apps > advanced > ignore optimizations > 1 weather is allowed
I can't see any other options from the settings menu that that wold be having an effect.
The fact it runs fine on my op3 (and other android devices) implies it must be sth to do with huawei/honor optimization or doze feature
second app (smart app lock) is a similar issue. it seems to auto disable itself but irregularly. sometimes its when I close all apps (which i tend to do each time i switch off the screen) other times do that & it's fine but when i switch off screen then switch back on again its disabled.
again I dont have the issue with the same app on my op3 so it must be to do with huawei/honor or emui
fyi i previously had a p8 lite and had the exact same issue with the same 2 apps.
anyone any suggestions?

App optimization - What is it & why does Smart Manager change settings UI?

Most of you will be aware that a new "app optimization" feature was added to a recent 5.1.1 based firmware update.
I've been trying to research exactly what this does because Samsung have not updated their user manual (you can access this via the user manual widget) to cover this new feature. After searching online, I've come to the conclusion that I'm not the only one who isn't sure what this feature does and there's a lot of incorrect information out there.
Below is some examples of what I've read:
It's Samsung's implementation of doze - I think this is incorrect as doze is a system wide state that uses sensors and screen off information.
Someone on AC forums was told by a Samsung employee that for example, it will make taxing games black and white so they don't require so much processing power - I really don't think this is the case.
It's Samsung's implementation of app standby - I think this is the most likely.
Does anyone have any concrete evidence as to what this setting actually does?
Furthermore, I've noticed that the "app optimization" implementation will change depending on if you have Smart Manager enabled or disabled. Not only that, but the battery sub menu layout (settings > battery) is also different depending on Smart Manager running or not. Has anyone else noticed this?
From what I can gather, the "app optimization" feature is there regardless if Smart Manager is enabled or disabled, but you can only manually select wether an app is optimised or not. Smart Manager appears to only provide automation of the process by monitoring which apps have not been used for x number of days and then changing the optimisation setting for each app for you.
Based on your screenshots, system apps can now be optimized by default?

Second screen is the 'Optimization Screen' under Setttings > Battery > Battery Usage > Battery Optimization. First one is from the 5.1.1 update, and the second is only present in Marshmallow Beta.
I don't think it's exactly an App Standby, as this keeps the apps 'unoptimized' if they have background services. Samsung's optimization only takes days since last usage for determining if an app should be optimized. Also, I think Samsung's optimization is more aggressive, like Greenify, an it shuts down apps shortly after user lefts them.
Oh, and it seems that you can't explicitly turn App Standby for an app, like you can do it with the Samsung alternative. Putting an app on/off on App Standby only activates App Standby for that app (If conditions are met) or disables it completely.

You're not quite correct on the screen shot front. All screenshots were taken from Android 6.0, the reason they're different is one was taken with Smart Manager running and the other was taken with Smart Manager disabled via Package Disabler.
What it does is that after an app has not been started for 3 days (this is configrable), it freezes (disables) it.
This is really problematic for small apps acting as unlocker of a main app and not supposed to be launched by user, as it prevents the main app to communicate with the unlocker app (bindServices() fails), preventing license verification to work.
This cancer acting in the back of apps used to only be possible on root devices, but Samsung generalized to mainstream devices.

[GUIDE] How to have screen auto on/off with any "flip" case

Hey there folks!
Since MiA1 does not have double tap to wake, or you just want funcionality of waking screen and be ready to go with ANY flip case you
might have bought (and screen off when you close it) here is a simple guide to achive so, i have been testing it for 5 days and so far it works flawlessly.
So far im getting only 1% of battery usage overall, meaning the app itself is NOT keeping CPU awake, only the proximity sensor to determine if the case
is closed or not. Really battery friendly overall. Dont know the bad reviews on PlayStore - people moan about anything these days and app does not
work well with any device, but with A1, its a bingo.
1. remove your lockscreen security (set to none) - this is up to you! If you have your phone with you at all times, it
removes the need to do extra steps (draw pattern, PIN, etc...). If you prefer to open case and be taken to locksceen, skip this step!
2. install "EveryCover" DOWNLOAD - !app is add supported! - also, there is paid version which i have so i support the dev, but free one works just as well!
- enter ap and activate the service (works by using Device Admin)
- tick "Auto start at Boot" - so service keeps running after restart
- tick "Service in notification bar" - it will prevent app to be killed by system - more on that later!
- you can even set the time period in which app is inactive (ex. - when you sleep at night)
3. Test the funcinality. Just open and close your case, like you normally would (not 2 times in 1 secs, right ). In my testing of daily usage it almost never "misses".
The screen on is almost instant when you flip the case and screen is set to off after 1 sec of closing case. I tested many many times to see if the screen really switches off, and it
works great. I will also mention that it seems to work even in almost pitch dark (!) and no problems on indoors on evenings etc... It seems that the app is really good at listening to
sensor, or we have a really good proximity sensor on A1!
OPTIONAL STEPS:
Now if you are perfectionist or just like me, 2 things may bother you with this setup, and i will also explain steps how to deal with them.
4. persistant notifications - if you enabled "Service in notification bar" there will be constant notification which may bother you. To deal with this, just long press
on the notification and switch the toggle to the right. (or you can go to app settings and do the same, turn off notifications)
5. "EveryCover running in the background" notification - the last problem you may encounter, altho only the visual one, can be pain to watch. To disable this notification just download this app:
HERE!
Just enter app, grant permission, select "Press to select apps" and choose EveryCover.
You are done! This way, you have:
- working screen on/off solution for ANY flip case
- clean status bar without unnecessary notifications
- persistant service that will NOT be killed by system or after restart
- all that with only 1% of battery usage and no impact on performance what so ever.
Dislclaimer; I am not a dev of any apps mentioned here.
Cheers, hopefully this helps someone!
Magnetic wake / sleep works if you can find a case with magnet placed at correct place built in case.
Phone wakes and sleeps when opened or shut automatically with this feature. Don't be confused with smart cases as not the same thing. I'm late with this reply but works with many phone Inc all my xiaomi phones

Legit Services aren't autostarting - Android 8.1 - BlackView 9600

So I have a clean setup. I just installed Tasker and Telegram. Telegram NEVER starts up automatically.
- I have said for both apps to "NOT OPTIMISE" on the battery settings
- Both are added to a "white" list on the close background apps.
- Both have been excluded from DuraSpeed
Irrespective of above being enabled or not the apps don't start on reboot. Sometimes - like 3 in 10 reboots Tasker will auto start.
Can anyone help? I just bought this phone and this is a deal breaker.

[TIP] Stop Certain Apps From Reloading Often

I've noticed that at default, the phone's RAM management isn't all too convenient when it comes to multitasking.
Sometimes I'll be playing a game, then go to check something on Twitter, and then open the game back up and it's restarted.
Found a neat little trick to help:
1. Go to Settings > Additional Settings > Recent Tasks Manager
2. Toggle apps that you don't want restarted all the time to On
And that's it really, the phone is fine for lighter apps, but when it comes to some games it doesn't handle multitasking too well, but if you "lock" the game with the above method then it won't close it as often.
Also might be worth going into the Phone Manager app > Settings > Self Check > Off. This also helps.
EDIT: Just worked out that this also works for custom launchers (ie Nova). It would often reload my home screen after closing an app, but after adding Nova to the list it doesn't do it anymore

What kind of battery improvement/screen on time can we expect from these optimizations? I'm currently getting 6-8h of screen time or 40~ hours of standby with 4~ hours of screentime.

All kinds actually, from smoother phone to longer battery life.
I wouldn't follow this guide, especially since it recommends malware (ccleaner hasn't been good for a looooong time).
There's also no need for draining your battery until the phone turns off multiple times to "calibrate" it, and disabling stuff that many people find useful (like location for Maps)... going through ADB to turn off settings available through the UI is also strange... Seems like snake oil.

Agreed. CCleaner is garbage malware and most of the tips cripple your device's capabilities. One example from the rec'd settings... Turn off WiFi/Bluetooth scanning/GPS. Sure you'll save battery.. at the expense of losing location results. Also many apps require GPS permissions so this suggestion isn't even really practical.
Battery Calibration Pro? Hasn't been updated since 2017. If you want to know what's going on with your battery get a relevant app like Ampere. And why do we even need to "calibrate" our batteries?
And many of the apps listed in PixelSafe.txt marked as "bloatware" are definitely not safe to uninstall..
com.android.omadm.service
com.google.android.ims
com.google.android.carrier
Good luck using your phone without these.
And if AppControl OP is suggesting to use to uninstall the listed apps is doing so by modifying system partition say goodbye to passing safetynet.
100% do not use anything suggested here lol

Ive had omadm disabled for over 2 months with zero issues
OMA DM server development cooperation in the air, mobile phones and wireless devices to provide remote configuration, configure and update device management (DM) client enables operators and handset manufacturers outbreak system dependencies between DM tight.
if you can explain exactly why something should not be disabled and why it will cause a bootloop or failure to boot great.
if you are just blowing smoke out your ass because you think your phone should wipe your ass for you and everyone else.
then go away you are not helping the discussion.
i also dont think any non opensource app should be used as snake oil to fix issues unless we know exactly how it works.
people should always do their own research on everything, XDA is not for sheep following a guide word for word because they don't understand why things work or don't work

PLEASE, READ OP CAREFULLY BEFORE COMMENTING. THANK YOU​- CCleaner does the job, also, uninstalling it right after you're done using it is a key step.
- Doesn't matter when has it been updated, it does the job.
- I actually have a pixel 6, and those apps listed are ALREADY UNINSTALLED for me, and i'm running fine as you can see .
- Bootloader locked, no root, and you're worried about system partitions ? And safetynet too ?
- OMADM was shipped disabled for me, i never needed to take it out.
- Literally NO ONE forced you to do what i said, all of those are suggestions, feel free to do, or not do them.
- You don't like my suggestions ? Skip them, go away, don't come posting nonsense, please, i want to keep my thread clean of bull****.
- 100% nobody asked your opinion.

As i already stated in the past post, those apps are already uninstalled on my phone and i don't have any problem. Everything is working as intended, but with less heat, faster charging and better battery life
OMA DM and it's associated apps are frozen out of the box (for my carrier anyway). Can't speak for all carriers.
Lol I just copy/pasted from where I saw in the txt to uninstall com.google.android.ims and
com.google.android.carrier.. my bad if I included one that can be removed "safely".
Though how would it be beneficial to battery life to remove a frozen system app?
You missed my point. There are apps in the txt that should never be removed or even be suggested to be removed because without them, you no longer have a phone.
This entire battery optimization guide is full of bad advice at best and changes that will break your phone. What's the point of having a phone with amazing battering life but no functionality?
Don't believe me than go ahead and disable/remove com.google.android.ims and the other ims services. See how well sms/mms/telephony work through an IP network.
Literally NO ONE forced you to do what i said, all of those are suggestions, feel free to do, or not do them. You don't like my suggestions ? Skip them, go away, don't come posting nonsense, please, i want to keep my thread clean of bull****.

XDA is a community with lots of people who don't have in-depth knowledge of Android. Some people may not know better.
So as a community, we also want to stop the spread of bad information. You can't post a guide for better battery life and then say "but no one look into them or question them they work 100%". That's not how things work.
And with that not wasting more time on this thread. Best of luck!
To everyone coming here, please, if you don't have serious issues with your battery, never ever drain it to 0. And over all, never ever try to start a phone with a 0% battery.
A battery is always better at 40-60%, not more, not less (you can find a lot of battery care articles on the web explaining why).
This calibration method is probably a way to solve a problem after flashing your phone with a custom ROM and after that, you see wrong battery percentage (like if your phone switch off before 3% remaining).
But please note that draining your battery to 0 will decrease its capacity permanently (and it can be by a huge amount if you insist to much). Also charging it to 100% everyday can decrease your battery life faster.
In an everyday use of your phone, it's better by a huge amount to charge your phone as often as you can and unplug it around 60-80%. You will see a difference after years.
Do you know why a new phone is around 50-60% battery when you buy it and switch it on for the first time ? Now you know

The OP isn't going to love me at all. I just know I'm going to get a "nobody asked for your opinion" comment from him. He's right, nobody did ask my opinion, but that doesn't mean I'm not allowed to give it anyway. So, while I thank the OP for his enthusiasm and his attempts to provide something useful for Pixel 6 owners, I strongly advise caution in following these tweaks.
Out of the OP's list, the only things I could agree with would as follows: advertising ID, always on display, system dark mode, animation scale, and systemwide removal of ads. That last one however, I use Blokada for as I feel it's more effective.
OP should explain his reasoning behind each and every one of these changes in this list, so the people he is trying to help can understand his reasoning here. I've been mucking around the guts of Android devices since Android 2.1 and even I would like to know why he chose these things. I'd like to know because most of them seem to cripple the functions of the unit, i.e. negatively impact the Google experience. For example, gestures - gesture navigation - he says to disable. Why?
Some of these tweaks have little to no effect, could actually do more harm than good, or have better options available.
Battery Calibration - Totally unnecessary and only serves to waste battery charge cycles, which you do NOT want to do with a battery trapped in an aluminum frame between two slabs of glass. Battery calibration apps are unnecessary as the only thing they do is delete batterystats.bin, which Android automatically does upon removing the unit from a charger. This has been a known fact since around 2012.
Apps lag using CCleaner - Ignoring CCleaner's reputation since its purchase by Avast, lag from apps on a Pixel 6 is debatable. In any event, SDMaid I feel is a better option than CCleaner, especially as it functions quite nicely for debloating.
Fix OLED Burn-in/Ghosting - The disable gestures tweak could accelerate burn-in along the bottom of the display as the device would have to revert to the 3-dot navigation option. Any burn-in the screen does acquire would have to be rather light in order for an app to fix it, but so long as the wear is light an app will work. I have seen some very extreme examples of burn-in on an OLED screen, and no app would help those.
And then there is the bloatware section. Why in the hell is it that everyone and their mother still recommends deleting apps from the system partition instead of disabling them? Seriously, in the early days of Android it made sense. Now, it's only a waste of time, especially on a device whose system partitions are set to read-only in the first place. Using SDMaid or Titanium Backup and freezing, i.e. disabling, apps is far less likely to cause problems. If I recall correctly, the freezing function does not require root access to work.
My thoughts...take them as you will. Most of this stuff I won't bother with, and the things I do bother with I've already done.
I use the following :
Nova launcher pro
Appdash pro
SD Maid pro
Adaway
Modules - systemless and safety net V2.
