Find out the culprits of power consumption
To do as much as possible to save power, first of all, we need to know the phone's power on where it is used, and then we can prescribe the right medicine. We can open the phone's settings? About phone? Battery? Battery Usage to see how the battery light is used. Or check the power consumption of apps through third-party software.
Battery drain
The images above show that most of the phone's power is used up by the large display screen. In addition, Wi-Fi, mobile TV, and gaming apps also take up a significant amount of power. In addition, there are a number of settings that don't show up on the display, such as display effects, keystroke feedback, and so on.
Now that you know what power users eat up, here's how you can save power.
Since your phone's large display is the biggest consumer of power, let's start with the screen. Turn off unnecessary effects to save power.1. Reduce screen brightness. Through Settings->Sound and Display Settings->Brightness Adjust the screen brightness to the lowest brightness that doesn't affect your eyesight, which can effectively save power, and for phones that support optical sensors, you can also check the box "Automatic brightness" to automatically adjust the screen brightness according to the outside world's "light".
Setting the screen brightness
Decrease the screen standby timeout, through the Settings-> Sound and display settings, select the appropriate screen standby timeout, you can choose 15 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes or never timeout, choose too short screen timeout will often lead to a black screen, I recommend that you set up an online store for your phone. cause the phone to go black, and I personally recommend setting it to 30 seconds.
Screen display settings
When you don't need to manually turn off the screen, it's a very good habit to save the battery, but it takes a while to develop, every time you look at the phone into your pocket before you press the power button (hang up button) can make the phone black screen, 4, turn off the window animation effects, although these animation effects look cool, but in fact, it is also very power consumption, so it's not a good idea to use it. If you don't care about your phone's display, you can turn off the window animation by going to Settings->Display Settings->Animation->No Animation.
System Optimization
The powerful Wi-Fi capabilities of smartphones are the main attraction of purchasing them, but in order to be able to connect to the Internet anytime, anywhere, get instant notifications of emails, and call a GPS location, Android smartphones always have programs running in the background that require Internet access. However, in order to be able to connect to the Internet anytime, anywhere, receive instant notifications via email, and call the GPS location, Android smartphones always have programs running in the background that require Internet connection, which leads to increased power consumption. Therefore, in order to save power on Android smartphones, we need to optimize the background programs and system settings. Simply put, we need to manually set the background programs to become less and more? The program will be used more often to open the program as soon as it's used.
Wireless LAN settings
1. Settings Wireless and Network Settings Mobile Network? Inside, select ? The GSM network only option allows the 3G smartphone to reduce the amount of time it spends on the Internet. option to make the 3G smartphone consume less power.
2, Bluetooth must be turned off when not in use, set wireless and network settings Bluetooth, remove the check box to turn off Bluetooth, and then manually turn it on when in use.
3. GPS, Bluetooth, WiFi, background data, and auto-sync are all features that can be turned off in daily standby mode through the system settings, and then turned on when you need to use them.
Data synchronization and roaming settings
4, close the data roaming function, through the cell phone menu Settings - & gt; wireless and network settings - & gt; mobile network settings, deselect data roaming, cancel data roaming, data roaming can save a lot of cell phone power, and does not affect the program and the phone's network function, the program still can connect to the network at any time.
5, turn off account synchronization, if you do not use gmail and other Google services, you can through the Settings - & gt; Accounts and Synchronization, deselect the automatic synchronization function. Using auto-sync will automatically synchronize your calendar, contacts, gmail messages and photos to Google servers in the background of your phone, and turning off auto-sync can also save network traffic.
Background apps and haptic feedback
Gamers often complain about the high power consumption of high speed devices, but a significant portion of that power is consumed by too many programs running in the background. So when you're running out of power, first check out some of the programs running in the background, like QQ, Weibo, and WeChat, and close them down in time to save power. In addition, you can also turn off unnecessary functions such as the phone's vibration and haptic feedback.
Shut down background apps
1, monitor your phone's processes (consider using Task killer to manage processes), and Android 2.1 began supporting service management features through Settings-> Apps Settings-> Running Services to shut down unnecessary services to save power. In addition, it is recommended to download the Task killer process management software to kill unwanted processes at any time, and to save the memory of the phone as well.
Turn off vibration
2, turn off the phone vibration, in addition to the noisy environment to prevent missed calls and so on, you have what reason to open the phone vibration, at least in the office and at home, you can through the Settings-> sound and display settings, turn off the phone vibration.
3. Turn off the keypad sound, this is also one of the least used features, through the Settings-> Sound and Display Settings, turn off the phone sound.
4. Turn off tactile feedback, which is also one of the first things you should turn off, by going to Settings-> Sound and Display Settings and deselecting Tactile Feedback.
Installing power-saving software
Some users may find the above method still cumbersome, and hope that there are some more simple and fast means of power saving, here we recommend a few third-party apps that are simple, practical, and efficient to save power as a selling point, such as Dim Sum Power Saving, Kingsoft Battery Doctor, Power Saving Power and so on, here we are Dim Sum!
These are the first time I've seen a third-party app that uses the power of a PC to save power.
It's easy to get these apps to work. For example, you can search and download the app through the built-in eMarketplace on your phone, or through third-party apps such as GoMarket, Android Market, or GoSmart. After installing it, you can add a shortcut icon on your phone. The icon shows the current battery percentage and the estimated battery life of the phone, as well as a shortcut to select a power saving mode.
When you open the software, you can see that the interface is very simple, with a blue battery icon that shows the percentage of battery power remaining, and a tip bar to the right of the battery icon that lets you see the current mode, battery life, and battery level of the battery, and the estimated charging time if it's charging, and a tip bar with mode selection, a keystroke, and a keystroke. It also integrates three buttons for mode selection, one-click optimization, and details.
Data Ready
Another key feature of the app is that it detects the power consumption of the apps and their hardware, and the apps can be seen in detail in the apps screen. The latest version of the GIGABYTE 3D Power feature allows users to control the power consumption of their PCs in a more efficient manner, so that they can enjoy the same level of control over their PCs.
Display details of the power consumption of the hardware
Display widgets on the desktop, but note that the time displayed in the widgets is not the current time, but is the calculated battery life of the phone, or the estimated charging time if it is in charging mode, and that the piece of paper on the right side is the "small leaf". If it's charging, it's an estimate of the charging time. The small leaf on the right is the "One Click Optimize" function of Dim Sum Power Saver. One Click Optimization
On the other hand, it's also a good idea to use a few of the features that you've seen in the previous version of the device, such as the ability to use the device as a standalone device.
Using Airplane Mode to manually reduce the mains frequency
One of the drawbacks of Android phones is that they don't support shutdown alarms, so in order to utilize the alarm function, many users will turn on the phone all night long, and when they wake up in the morning, the battery power will be very low. At this time, you can choose the flight mode. Flight mode can also cut off the communication network, which can effectively reduce the problem of radiation. It also prevents phone calls and text messages from disturbing your dreams.
In addition, try to avoid frequent switching, in fact, the boot process of the phone is very power-consuming, many programs to start, at this time the power consumption peak, ordinary switching on and off the phone itself is not good. So, the flight mode can solve this problem very well. Users can set the flight mode by long-pressing the off button, and also by setting ? Wireless and Network? Flight Mode.
