Extreme PowerSaving Mode UPDATED FOR NEW OTA

There might be an easier way, but I had to reflash the new firmware and then the Skyfall ROM.
I tried just the ROM, but got an "app not installed" message. So I took the long route to get back to where I was before I installed this mod.
Next time I'll do a nandroid backup first.
What's wrong with devhost?

When everything is worked out, is there a way to get a quick launch toggle? Or even a shortcut? TIA.

Went through this a few times to try narrow it down, but when I flash this, the little circle that comes with the HTC messages app when you receive text with the number of texts that are unread stops working. Went back to stock and it worked again, flashed this again and stopped. Any idea how to get it working again? I have HTC messages set as default.
If you flash this, then place the stock mms apk that comes with the vzw varient you can have the message count back as well as vvm however mms will NOT work when in extreme power saver mode because the mms apk that comes with the vzw varient does NOT support extreme power saver mode.

I see, so the mms apk has been replaced with another variant to work with extreme power saver? So in theory when Verizon finally releases update that includes extreme power saver we will get full functionality back.
In theory that is correct, however I doubt very much they will because look at what they have already removed
FM radio
Flash light
Power saving mode
Extreme power saving mode
File manager
5 toggles
Music channel mode
Easy mode
HTC browser
And I'm sure the list goes on but that's just want I know of off the top of my head. Over the years I've been ok with ADDING bloat because that's easy to remove/disable but REMOVING FEATURES IS NOT OKAY with me.

I agree, I can see some logic in the FM Radio to nail you for more data, ticks me off but can see it, but why the heck do they take the flashlight, power saving etc??? Speaking of which the power saver toggle mod will not turn on this extreme power saver, is there a way to get a toggle? I am sure the smart devs such as yourself will figure out the Verizon message if Verizon won't push it. Thanks for the mods you have given us!
So I just tested this doesn't work with art I had art runtime enabled when I flashed this on clean Rom and when it booted I got power had stopped working upon trying to enter power settings I would get settings have force closed so I switched to dalvik let it boot and had no problems I could go into power settings and see power save mode and extreme power save mode so why I'm posting is to let everyone know maybe you can put a warning not comparable with art runtime and I was wondering how to remove this because I would rather have art runtime than xtreme power save mode thanks in advance

ART works off of an ODEX ROM base,
the .apk I posted here is DEOdexed, so it won't work.
Also, this IS a Verizon Message.apk
A single edit to the manifest.xml was made to allow EPS to see the Message.apk as being installed,
and one more edit to a .smali file to bring bubbles back.
(Basically, the other Variants (Sprint, etc) their Message.apk is called upon as "Conversation.UI."
and our's is called upon "MessageActivityTab" or something close to it, thus using the .apk HTCExtremePowerSaver.apk from Sprint, it is looking for the event called "Conversation.UI" and since ours isn't being called upon by that string, EPS does not see our Message.apk
So the two edits, were to 1 change a string within the Manifest.xml from MessageActivityTab to Conversation.UI and wahla EPS see our Message.apk, the weird thing is that that one string change removes the tabs in Message.apk so you can't get over to voicemail (I don't use VVM so I didn't care to look for a fix)
now to get the bubbles back, this was a smali edit, but the same thing..
Found MessageActivityTab, changed it to Conversation.UI and now we have bubbles.)
I've looked through this thread from first to last page a few times, and I haven't been able to find which post you posted
your DEOdexed apk file. Did you perhaps post it in a different thread, and if so, can you link to it please?
I see the zip in the OP of this thread has the Odex version.
Thank you!

Could you be a little more specific on how to do this? It sounds like you have the golden key.
More specific? I was as specific as needed for anyone who understands editing applications. Sorry if you can't figure it out.
Golden key? I just explained in detail, I didn't have to do this, I also posted the link to the .zip for u guys to compare and I said exactly what you change, what else u want from me?
Anyone figured out how to get the tile for extreme power saving working? I don't see it anywhere.

There is not a stock one you can just enable. It would have to be added to the systemUI

21just finished getting this working on our VZW flavor. Original Post was from jkt97401 in the Sprint thread,

Updated Extreme Power Saving mode for the OTA update of 1.55.605.2
Extreme_PS_1.55.605.2_VZW.wsms.zip - 9.55 MB
Just a side note, I have already done the mod on my personal phone to enable normal power saving mode, this "may" be necessary, however since I'm not planning on wiping my phone to test. "IF" after flashing this you do not see the options under /settings / power you may want to do that mod here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=27019094
Instructions to revert ART
1. Boot into recovery.
2. Run adb shell to access terminal.
3. Type 'rm /data/property/persist.sys.dalvik.vm.lib' This will remove setting default VM runtime to ART.
4. Clear Dalvik cache and reboot. Your phone should run normally now.

i just saw that, the ActivityManager is denying permission to the com.htc.powersavinglauncher to access com.htc.sense.mms.. not sure why yet, still looking thru the log
Edit: found the propblem for MMS uploading fix now;
the MMS.apk for 1.12.605.11 does not have the added permisions in the manifest for the new com.htc.powersavinglauncher.. fix in OP
or here Extreme_PS_1.12.605.11_VZW.mms.zip - 9.55 MB2
I gotta wait till it drains to test it again, and knowing THIS phone, it might take a while
