Because you have adaptive power saving mode turned on, turn it off.View attachment 4736764

Any benefits of this adaptive power mode? In reality is it better to keep it on or off? Anybody tried?

Adaptive power saving changes your power mode depending on your usage, other than that I don't think theres any benefit to it because power management actually comes from the power mode itself.

Seems that benefits could be bigger only if more parameters could be adjusted for each mode...

Thank you I was really thinking my phone was broken.

i'm pretty sure the adaptive power saving turned off my AOD for no apparent reason when i took a bit of a long driving trip, not like the battery got that low, down to 60% or so most likely, not positive that was it but that's all i'd expect from it is suddenly a feature you like and use is shut off and you have to waste your time researching why.

With that turn off I actually seen great results with my battery got almost to full day and a half I wish I could of screen shot but oh well.

They can, simply enable medium power saving from the quickpanel and it will let you personalise the profile, resolution AOD and all, set it back to Optimal and then enable Adaptive power saving.
You want Adaptive power saving to be on all the time, it extends battery even more once it learns about your usage and you won't feel any slowdown unless you're playing.

LowBatt=Dimmed Screen?

Hi guys just want to ask if this is normal? cause whenever my X10's battery reaches 10% or below(blinking red LED) the screen automatically changes it's brightness, can i turn this feature off(if it IS normal)? cause i can't use my phone properly especially during daytime when the screen's brightness is sow low...
yep, happens me too.. when you have normal power, go to display settings and set brightness to 80 or 90% then whenever the screen dims just go to that setting again and uncheck automatic brightness.

So i still have to go to the settings and set it the brightness for the screen to be brighter?...cause it's such a hassle to do that every time my screen turns off...
ya i think so, i couldnt work out a way to keep it bright. got to admit it is relly annoying..

Yeah...hopefully someone could share us some light...
This is not being caused by the auto-brightness. I turned auto-brightness.off weeks ago, and still have the screen fun at 10% battery or less. I think it has more to do with power conservation.

Power Saving Mode Tip - What I learned

.
I was messing around with the power saving mode just now. I realized that when I tick-on "Screen power saving" I can notice a huge slow down on the whole ui. Now remember everything else is ticked-on including the cpu limiter. But with "Screen power saving" turned off, I couldn't tell the difference between power saving mode and non-power saving mode. Which leads me to conclude the "Screen power saving" is doing some major cpu calculation which might actually not be so great as it defeats the purpose of power saving.

That power saving mode and blocking mode are the stupidest two things that they pushed on android.. I never used thise things. Also, that screen brightness adjustment in notification menu is so annoying,and I never touched it. And whyv they added those extra toggles in notification menu next to sound,wifi ,mobile data,etc so now everything slides from side to side and I always press something that I don't want. Or maybe there is a possibility to turn those off and I can't find how to..

Toggles can be customized even on stock.
And power saving mode really does save battery, and its customizable.

It saves battery but it destroys performance. It is acting like galaxy ace when on power saving mode . Please show me how to customise the toggles, because I can't find out how after 10 days of looking into the settings. Can I move the brightness adjuster too? Thanks

Sorry, didn't realize it is a 4.1.2 feature!
But I don't understand how you can say that power saving mode destroys performance, I hardly notice any difference in normal usage. It's basically just the cpu locked at 1 ghz.

The screen power saving mode does something with the screen's refresh rate, if you have it on you will notice the screen flickering in a very fast rate, so the slow down in the UI is probably because of the screen is skipping every other frame making it seem like it slowed down when it is not

Does make sense, but would that really save a lot of Battery? I think the sweet spot now is to just tick on CPU Limiter while leaving everything off. [Obviously people who use CPU apps don't really need this feature as they can modify the CPU even more] Too bad I really don't use this feature much as of yet but will report back if I find anything new. I'll try to use the phone for a couple days with just the CPU Limiter ticked on this weekend.
If you want to save power on your Note 2, you might use SetCPU, Screen Filter & Juice Defender Plus, these apps help me a lot to save battery.
Because it limits your screens fps to like 40 or 30

I strongly believe it is lower then 30FPS.. Perhaps below 25fps.
HOWEVER if you uncheck Screen Power Saving, the FPS returns back to normal. I usually use Power Saving mode with only Power savings on, this way performance is not affected.
What's interesting is that I've been testing power save mode on some pretty high end games like modern combat 4 and nfs most wanted and you only lose 4-8 fps on average, but it still remains over 30 fps.
This is with all the options ticked in power save mode. For gaming while off the charger, it would help extend the battery quite a bit.

If that is true, I hardly find a reason to NOT use power savings until more graphics demanding games come out. I'll also test it out on Deadzone.

Well those extra fps could come in handy, but if power save gives extra playing time then it might be worth the slight loss.

Exactly my experience too.
Also, it's not the fps getting capped, lower fps is just a result of capped cpu frequency, but the refresh rate is capped, which could lead to a certain amount of flickering even though I cannot see it. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Screen Dim by Battery level

Does anyone have a way to stop the screen from auto-dimming when battery drops to 5%? I am rooted on Eclipse/NC2 ROM, and have spare batteries for emergencies, and this is extremely annoying... Or even change it to only happen at 1% instead of 5%, if it cannot be disabled.... Thoughts? Clues? Solutions?
Sent from my SM-N900V using Tapatalk
Isn't this from having power saving mode selected?
Nope, I leave that off, but the screen dims at 5% anyway.... Doesn't everyone else's?

Battery Saving Tips

Wanted to see what battery savings tips you guys have and want to share. Mines would be downloading "Galaxy Buttons" and disabling the capacitive button lights from turning on all the time.
