Black wallpaper improving battery - Galaxy Note5 General

I created a couple of black wallpapers to see if it does improve battery life.
I'm very happy with the results I'm getting. Almost 3 hrs SOT and I'm at 60%.

I like the wallpaper in the first photo. Any chance you'd be willing to share it?
I noticed some nice gains from my usual wallpaper to the dark one I'm currently using but still looking for one I like more

I just use s note make a black page save it in gallery go to gallery and select picture and use as both home and lock screen. Amoled screens use more juice showing white.

You only gain 15mins max by using ugly black wallpapers. Not worth it

Right. If you love black, so far so good. Otherwise I'm not sure I see the point to save battery by any mean., including to lose part of the attractiveness of this product.

No offense, but your comment makes you sound like an a-hole. No offense, though. ☺

Motoblur suck ass!

I couldn't use it for more than 3 hours. Switched to adw launcher ex. Much better.
ps. My nexus s feels faster to be honest.

Kind of off topic but since I have a Nexus S I was hoping you could give your opinions on the screens. Which is brighter when full white (google.com for example)? I assume the NS has blacker blacks... is the extra resolution worth giving up the blacks? =)

I think nexus a bit brighter but warmer too. Atrix looks more natural. I snapped 2 pics using a evo ... the pic shows ns screen to bluish. Not like that !
NS amoled rules bro.
Atrix on the left

Amen I will not use this over my nexus s and the super amloed screen kills the qhd. Some other guy just said the same thing lol that's funny

The only thing keeping me away form the Atrix is Motorblur and locked bootloader...

agreed. and the nexus S is likely just a lot smoother since the UI takes advantage of the GPU. A new feature to 2.3...
Oh good, another NS owner. How is the battery life compared to the NS? Did the phone feel a bit sluggish even after you made ADW your default launcher?

You don't say?
make your battery last longer by simply cutting the apps off when your not using them and change loads of your settings like the screen display the weather and clock app its not hard unless your brain dead.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Surely there are plenty of other medical conditions other than brain dead that may cause the difficulty.
well i wasnt just going to sit there and right a list of things that could cause ppl bin stupid was i?

You should actually keep the phone in your pocket and never take it out. That'll more than triple your battery life.
To save battery life , I'd underclock dual core phones

I don't know about you guys but I thought that the first post was witty and funny! You hear people complaining all the time and pestering others about how to increase battery life. This solution is the best one for those type of people!
I thought it was funny too :good:
Well I know how to make your battery last indefinitely...
Switch it off and never switch it back on.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
Also you can take a knife, and cut the processor in half to get eight cores instead of four.
Keeping it in your pocket won't do anything for your battery life........
Oh the controversy. You can please some people sometimes, but you can't please some others half the time... No wait a minute... TBC
lol
Good joke tho
I've taken your advice and kept 5 of them in my pockets all week but my battery still dies after 14hrs of use???
Can anyone help?

[Tips and tricks] [CM13] The ULTIMATE BATTERY THREAD!

Hello guys, my objective to start this thread is to help those people who loves CM13 and struggles to keep using it for poor battery performances.
I have been extensively experimenting with different things with battery life to get proper idea about whats eating the juice in CM and what way I can stop it. I think I have found a solution. May be it can be a little better than what I have got so far. Lets see!
For now, I will just share a fraction of my test result and get feed back from you guys about it. If Im overrating my battery stat or any like! Haha!

Post your S8 plus HOMESCREEN!

Mine just arrived and I will post it later.
It will be interesting to see what people do with this screen shape that is so different to other devices.
(can't believe I got to post this thread before anyone!)
