  • If you post screenshots and photos,remove them under the spoiler (mobile client manual).
  • Dear forum users! Before writing the topic "Power consumption (autonomy) Samsung Galaxy S IV", please read the opinion of the curator of this topic:

    Useless in this topic are considered ads, which indicate some% of consumption without specifying the conditions and environment of use. We need enough detailed data. It is highly desirable that the data can be compared. For example, smartphone sleep statistics with daily communications settings.Some lyrics.

    If you wishget help , then:
    1. Read the information in the topic header. Perhaps there is an answer to your question.
    2. Check the battery for blistering / unevenness. If possible, spendthree tests.
    3. Checksync settings.
    4. If there is root, then clear the dalvik cache fromTitanium backup(running in stock recovery of wipe cache partition does not clean Dalvik-cache).
    5. Block advertising sites and install an antivirus (seeparagraph 6 of the recommendations). If there is no root, then only antivirus.
    6. Collect statistics oninstructions.
    7. Build your question so that your goal and tasks are clear.

    I hope everyone understands that, according to the patient, "Last week I felt good, but this one was bad. This week I just changed my jacket. What should I do?" diagnose is useless. Need a diagnosis.

    If you want to publishyour sleep accomplishments , then:
    1. Collect statistics oninstructions.
    2. Add important in your opinion data.
    3. Describe the steps you have completed to achieve the result. Avoid slang, write in detail.

    If you want to publishtheir achievements of everyday use , then:
    1. It is advisable to refer to the statistics.sleep.
    2. Add important data in your opinion, among which should be a screenshot of screen consumption and screen brightness settings.
    3. Describe the steps you have completed to achieve the result. Avoid slang, write in detail.

  • Messages like "I spent XX% for XX hours, is this normal?", "the screen is eatingXX% is constant, does everyone have it? "Or" I ate XX% overnight. what will they do? ”will be deleted in this topic without warning. Everyone has different conditions for using them, there are no answers to such questions.

  • How to shake the battery?
    With the battery installed in the device, the "buildup" procedure is not necessary! We read here:Lithium Batteries - Operating Rules
  • Playing with processor frequencies can lead to both overheating during an increase and a failure of the communication module during a decrease. The frequency of the processor is automatically adjusted. If someone loads the processor, then look for the cause, and do not struggle with the consequences.
  • Theme Tips to improve power saving devices on Android OS
  • Task Killers on Android
  • Do not put automatic taskkillers, they themselves kill the charge + after they complete the process, it immediately starts up the system again and does not allow the system to fall asleep / sits down the battery, not to mention the glitches in the system you get.
  • You do not need to change the firmware often if you are not satisfied with the power consumption. Look for a glutton.
  • Any programs to improve energy conservation, which turn on or off the screen, network, brightness, are useless. Explicit changes are made by those programs that require Root rights.
  • About setting"Wi-Fi in sleep mode"
  • Constant wi-fi activity (even in flight mode) what is the reason?
  • How long does the smartphone charge?Read!
  • When connected to a particular Wi-Fi, there is an increased power consumption, although this is not the case with a 3G connection. What to do? Leastthis.
  • Attempt to create a list of applications that you can supposedly disable (freeze) without losing the overall functionality. Use the list very carefully, carefully reading all the comments for each application:

    Google Cloud Messaging (GCM) or just Push. Why do you need it? Yes, everything is simple. You use for example icq / skype / vk / facebook / twitter / all sorts of mail / news feeds and so on. etc. Naturally, you want to receive messages from these social networks. So you would have to keep these applications running in order to receive messages, but this leads to "memory clogging" and the actual energy consumption. Here Push comes to help us.
    Jake @ 11.11.2013, 16:34*
    If you turn off GTalk, then push stops working; after turning it back on, everything returns to normal.

Ahhh !!! Listen to us!
Tough specialists have found a listening device in the Galaxy S5 battery! Before your eyes, they will open the defense, explain what not to do, what would be "BJ!" and show how to remove the "circuit that you listen to" (poor chip and NFC antenna). Watch video with sound !

Maybe someone will come in handy, in my background Viber ate the whole battery in 4 hours, deleted it and everything was fine, the phone began to “sleep”. Given that I did not run it and did not use it, I just set it up.

Strange. Viber has been hanging in my tray all the time since yesterday and there is not any zhora. At night I charged, took off the charge at 7 am, today there are already a lot of calls on Vibera and on a regular phone, installing a new firmware and a heap of prog, WiFi is always on, Bluetooth, pedometer, gesture control, GPS, picking in the settings, Navitel and GPS testing using different prog, half an hour reading a book in the MoonReader and other small things - 55% of the charge remains. In my SGS3, with such a load, there would be 5 percent left already ...



Rep: (694)
Turn off the binding to facebook in the vibeer, etc., because of this, he does not let the phone go to sleep, he didn’t figure it out yet :)

So I decided to deposit my five kopecks ... compared to C3 in the same way, BUT at C3 was custom, with a custom core, and at C4 all sensors are on, brightness is 50-55% ... plus another phone two days. what happened

Today, the battery burned to the ground. I watched 3 episodes of 30 minutes each on the HD720. Constantly hung in Whatsapp. True, about 4 hours from the whole time I did not use the phone.

Brightness control in auto mode with a decrease in the status bar.

On the first days, at the first cycles there can be a zhor. But after a week everything settles down.
And then there will be only that zhor which can be controlled by disabling the relevant consumers.
Grinds in the first days so to speak.



Rep: (201)
And I liked how the phone sleeps. WiFi and 3G were disabled. My night lasted 7 hours. It was his first charge up to 100%, only yesterday he received it.

Well, that's about my standard load.

Settings:
MDK firmware. Everything is included - 3G, Wi-fi, NFC, BT, GPS. Brightness auto. Everything is synchronized in the background: mail, catch, twitter, media, pocket, and so on ...

Using:
1 hour news reading
1.5 hours audiobook (BT headset)
30 min web surf, podcast download, twitter
30 min calls
1.5 hours of navigation Yandex. Traffic jams (or maps? ... no, traffic jams ...)
30 min reading mail, sms, whatsapp
the rest, such as photos, galleries, calendar in fragments ... I do not know how long

SGS3 in this mode lived 14-16 hours.
SGS4 has already lived 27 and another 9%. In general, the phone lives on my tasks for ~ 30% longer than the ancestor.

Power Consumption Report (First Charge) GT-I9505. Auto-brightness, sync everything, 2G network, WLAN, browsing, reading mail, watching a movie from NAS. Ps. For the night with WiFi turned off (including only 2G network) - the phone consumes 1-2%.

Zhor Also depends on the level of the GSM signal.

Today is a night check with different settings:

1. Charge the device fully - 100%;
2. In the "Task Manager" removed background applications;
3. In the "Notification Window"DISABLED ALL other than SOUND
4. Film Screen Mode, Brightness"Auto"
5. ENABLE mode"Energy Saving"
6. "Network mode" -GSM / WCDMA (automatic connection)
7. Dr.Web anti-virus installed
8. I forgot to notice about WatchON, which also hung in the status bar. In the previous night measurements, he also hung.

Here is the new result of this night.
-----------------------------------
Through12 hours of sleep apparatus left 89% . On 11% discharged device for 12 hours of sleep .

Conclusion - turning on the "Energy Saving" option and the "Auto" screen brightness when turning off all the options in the "Notification Window" does not affect the energy saving when the device is “sleeping” at night.
Today, before going to bed, I’ll change my "Network mode"GSM / WCDMA (automatic connection) on "GSM only" .
