How to Save Power in Any Mobile Phone

How to Save Power in Any Mobile Phone


We all know that mobile phone is very important to all of us. It is the alternative way in communicating our love ones especially if they are far away. Mobile Phones are in everywhere as mobile companies continue to produce and improve mobile features to satisfy our needs. As many features are added, battery consumption becomes too fast. You might fully recharged your device in couple of hours, but your battery became empty in just a couple of minutes. It is very
frustrating when you run out of power especially when you are dealing with a very important or serious matter. Ever wondered why is that so? Try to follow these easy steps, it might help you extend your battery life in any mobile phones and devices.

1. Keep your Screen Brightness as low as possible. 

   Keeping your screen brightness in low can help you save power. When you are using your devices at night, it is more appropriate to reduce your screen brightness. This can also help in protecting your eyes since too much brightness in the dark can is not appropriate.


2. Keep backlight time at a minimum level.

   Keeping your your device backlight time at a minimum level can help save power. This will let your device doesnt stay active for long when not in use. 


3. Avoid in using Widgets which needs Internet Connection.

   Widgets like weather, news feeds, and social networking updates consume more power as they use your phones data connection and auto sync capabilities.


4. Turn off Bluetooth and Wi-Fi when not in use.

   Turning off your bluetooth and Wi-Fi can help you save power. They may just be like that but they consume more battery power.



5. Close running unused applications.

   When you are using your device, for example a tablet, there are times that you do really open lots of applications ( Games, Browsers or etc ). And so inorder to have easier access with them, you just minimize it on the dock. To save power, close unused applications. They are just minimized and still continue to function, thus consuming more battery.


6. Download a Battery Saver App.

   It is much better to download a battery saver application in play store ( If your device is Android ). This app will provide you a lists of running applications which consumes more power.

- This mod is only for Galaxy S3 with Stock Rom.

How to add reboot recovery and bootloader options in Power menu

How to add reboot recovery and bootloader options in Power menu


So lets Start

Required
1-apktool
2-notepad++
3-some brains



STEP-1

Decompile Framework-res.apk

goto to res/vlaues/arrays.xml

and add these lines at the end

Code:
 <string-array name="reboot_options">
<item>@string/reboot_normal</item>
<item>@string/reboot_recovery</item>
<item>@string/reboot_bootloader</item>
</string-array>
<string-array name="reboot_actions">
<item>now</item>
<item>recovery</item>
<item>bootloader</item>
</string-array>

now goto res/values/strings
and add these lines at the end


Code:
 <string name="reboot">Reboot</string>
<string name="reboot_normal">Reboot</string>
<string name="reboot_recovery">Recovery</string>
<string name="reboot_bootloader">Bootloader</string>

goto add the ic_lock_reboot.png which i have i provided in the resources attached below this post to drawablw-hdpi folder

so before compiling the framework-res.apk follow erorcuns guide to properly recompile framework-res.apk

once recompile is done ....decompile again to get the HEX IDs

STEP-2

decompile android.policy.jar

goto classoutcomandroidinternalpolicyimpl

and add the 3 smalis files which i provided in the resources attached below

Now option classoutcomandroidinternalpolicyimplGlobalAc tions.smali

and find these lines and add the red marked lines between them

Code:
 .line 235
iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;->mItems:Ljava/util/ArrayList;

new-instance v1, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$2;

const v2, 0x1080030

const v3, 0x10400fa

invoke-direct {v1, p0, v2, v3}, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$2;-><init>(Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;II)V

invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Ljava/util/ArrayList;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z

.line 213
move-object/from16 v0, p0

iget-object v1, v0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;->mItems:Ljava/util/ArrayList;

new-instance v2, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$11;

const v3, 0x1080827

const v4, 0x104060b

move-object/from16 v0, p0

invoke-direct {v2, v0, v3, v4}, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$11;-><init>(Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;II)V

invoke-virtual {v1, v2}, Ljava/util/ArrayList;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z


.line 260
iget-object v0, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;->mItems:Ljava/util/ArrayList;

iget-object v1, p0, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions;->mAirplaneModeOn:Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$ToggleAction;

invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Ljava/util/ArrayList;->add(Ljava/lang/Object;)Z

now we need to assign the Hex ids as per ur Public.xml

NOTE: the hex ids might be different from mine and yours so be careful while comparing

new as per the above changes in GlobalActions.xml

assign the ids as below

<public type="drawable" name="ic_lock_reboot" id="0x01080827" />

Code:
 new-instance v2, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$11;

const v3, 0x1080827

<public type="string" name="reboot" id="0x0104060b" />

Code:
new-instance v2, Lcom/android/internal/policy/impl/GlobalActions$11;

const v3, 0x1080827

const v4, 0x104060b


Now option up classoutcomandroidinternalpolicyimplGlobalAc tions$11.smali

find and replace the following

@line 70
<public type="string" name="reboot" id="0x0104060b" />


Code:
const v3, 0x104060b

@line 90
<public type="array" name="reboot_options" id="0x0107003b" />


Code:
const v3, 0x107003b

@line 105
<public type="string" name="ok" id="0x0104000a" />



Code:
 const v2, 0x104000a

@line 147
<public type="bool" name="config_sf_slowBlur" id="0x0111000b" />


Code:
const v3, 0x111000b

now open up classoutcomandroidinternalpolicyimplGlobalAc tions$11$2.smali

@line 59
<public type="array" name="reboot_actions" id="0x0107003c" />


Code:
const v2, 0x107003c

save it and recompile android.policy.jar


now push all the files into ut phone...will have the new Advanced reboot options

How to save power on your Corby

How to save power on your Corby


1. Keep your screen brightness as low as possible. You can greatly save more battery from doing so.
2. Keep backlight time at a minimum level so your phone doesnt stay active for long when not in use.
3. Do not use widgets like weather, news feeds, and social networking updates as they use your phones data connection and auto sync capabilities, thus consuming more battery.
4. Turn off Bluetooth and Wifi when not in use.

5. Close running unused applications. You may not know it, but you could probably have a few minimized apps running. To close these apps, run task manager. Hold the menu key and you will see the list of the minimized apps. Tap on the stop-like sign to close a certain app or tap on End all applications to close them all at once.
