I think we're good on that front, since we removed Bixby completely
Samsung deprived us from OneUI 4.1.1/Android 12.1. It seems the fold is the fastest phone right now.
Did we get Light mode of fold4 in oneui beta 3???
Do u know which app to restore get that extract text from photos , screenshot and gallery introduced on one ui 5 . I moved to beta version and couldn't get this feature. Tried installing suggestions , bixby apps etc

Restoring com.samsung.android.sdk.ocr worked. Now i can see extract Text in camera , gallary , screenshots etc. works flawlessly
Beside com.samsung.android.sdk.ocr, what other packages needed to restore for this to work?
its weird...I can't make mine go down to 1hz..or even 60hz... when I do..it always falls back to 24--60 and its super stuttery.. im trying min and max at 96..its the only thing that works...it doesn't jump back and forth from 24 too 120... it just always stays on 96hz... I can't make it work any other way...ill test it out..see if its better than adaptive 24hz-120hz....
May i ask if this is only for A13? Im on A12 but i cant see the icon in the gallery for extracting the texts from pictures even tho that package is installed on my device
this feature is on One Ui 5.0 .Wait until your device receives the same.
Why to run camera app at 120hz. Cozz camera functions supports max 60hz. So in adaptive refresh rate it will shift down below 120hz
@blackhawk you still have HDR toggle in the camera app right? Can you set it to always and extract the parameter for it ? I'd like to try and test that

Battery Life Update
This thing just increased out of nowhere! I've been rocking a test preset for a few days, that I wasn't very proud of actually and wanted to go back to old stable preset. But today, right after January GOOGLE PLAY SYSTEM update, which i didn't know had anything to do with battery life, the phone was amazing.
I still support disabling adaptive 120 and going fixed, it does wonders for me.
I'll update you guys soon -

I'll try to answer based on my personal experience , so this is just my opinion.Thank you! This afternoon I tried to reactivate it before your answer and it worked!
Does this problem connect also to time vocal reading while playing music? I hope so..
Anyway, why you talk about "uninstalling"?
I always disabled all my (60) processes, somebody told me they is risky to uninsall it. Then this procedure is just for about few mb to gain, does should really worth it?
Framework & AuthTouchService : I never check battery usage of small things, I couldn't understand if it drains or not without them, so for being sure is better to keep them working?
I thought that would be for most of phones the same result, like "80% of phones would work better disabling /enabling them".
Then, as last question, I don't want to become maniac of debloating, I already check many lists and I would love to simplify the topic : instead of debloating lot of things (that many times doesn't consume), wouldn't be better to list just the top 50 main processes to debloat (average) ?
So we all should be fine with them....
I'm not a mega mind, but I feel that the following 100 processes disabled (after first 50)wouldnt consume more than a 0,5% of battery.. So why losing time disabling them?
Personally , i think it would be better to completely uninstall than just disabling the package , indeed it is safer to just disable because there are some particular apps that is safe to disable but can cause a bootloop when you uninstalled it , therefore you really need to know what packages that is safe to uninstall .
Framework & AuthTouchService :
When you go to the app info and look at how much these services using up the battery it may show you that it uses 0% of your battery , but believe me , any services that running in the background will always consumes the battery , no matter how much it is , it is consuming the battery .
See how much Google Play Service use your battery , it might show only 1 - 2% , try to disable it and you'll see that your phone will last much longer than usual , try to turn of your mobile data service (Airplane mode) and location service , your battery will last longer than usual , those are a background services not a foreground services.
Whether you should keep those 2 apps or not is up to you , that is why i suggest you to try it yourself .
Why uninstall ? Why don't just disable ? I have 2 reasons , again this is just my opinion based on personal experience .
1, Disabled packages takes up my storage , not much but still.
2, I probably got one of the best SOT out of everyone here (Thanks to this thread) i managed to get 18hr of SOT on my S21+ , that was when im on One UI 4.1 with adaptive 60-90hz (now im on One UI 5.0 , 11-12hr of SOT at best with 120hz , but still not optimized yet i just updated it 3days ago the system is still adapting to the new software , the SOT can still be higher or lower than this)
When i still in the process of optimizing my device (18hr SOT and the battery is very consistent) i'm still not very satisfied , that is when i try to update some of the samsung system apps (Phone,Message,Calendar etc) just to try to see if could get more SOT by doing this & i also remember that i restore this one particular app
com.samsung.android.dynamiclock
(I always uninstall and restore my apps one by one so i know which app that may cause the problem) and
that is when my SOT dropped from 18hr to around 10hr , i try to disable some of the updated system app , i also disable that one app that i just try to restore , the issue persist , it got solved when i uninstall that app & all the update from my system apps , then i get back my SOT to around 17hr at that time .
This is why i said that everyone can have a different experience , different results , just because of updating & restoring some apps gave a huge impact to my SOT.
If you want to simplify which apps that is best to disable or uninstall i suggest you to know about the all the permisssions of the apps , not the permissions to access Camera , Location, Files etc , but the "REAL" permissions that the app requires to run , of course its not simple cause there is A LOT that you really need to know about what it's function is .
But if i have to simplify it for you , you might want to find the app that has the "android.permission.WAKE.LOCK" permission , the app with this type of permission can prevent your phone from going to sleep & wake the device from sleep.
Lots of system app have this permission so make sure you know what youre going to disable or uninstall , but also remember to keep the app that you need cause you don't want your "smart"phone to be defect just because of trying to save some battery life .
com.samsung.android.dynamiclock
The app that ruined my SOT have that WAKE.LOCK permission by the way.
Hope this helps and answer your questions6
Right , i never posted an actual picture , but i remember very distincly i got 14 h 58 m screen on time & around 3 h screen off time (+ youtube and some other apps after i'm done with Quickedit)
and the battery was at 20% with the estimated time for about 3 h left , unfortunately & i'm willing to admit , i forgot to take the screenshot , shame on me.
and i rarely let my phone battery goes below 20% , so you were right it is a calculated time , but it was the Device care that calculated it , not me , i believe the calculated time would be precise considering the battery has been very consistent & the screen was on most of the time.
About the Quickedit : yes it is not a high processing task , but there is a few things that we need to consider , first , the app doesn't have the dark mode , secondly , i'm typing most of the time & Samsung Keyboard is considered a power hungry for a keyboard app , last but not least , my mobile data (4G) , bluetooth & media player was active in the background , with that being said , i'm not in an attempt to save the battery , it's just me doing my daily task on my phone , even with only Quickedit 5% / hr is quite good i would say , with youtube , a lil bit of gaming , etc i can get 13-14h SOT easily (before the battery reach 20%) but all of those was when i'm on One UI 4.1 , with adaptive 60-90hz i'd say it's possible , i mean , it's hapenned to me , after One UI 5.0 battery wasn't that good anymore , but still can get 10+ hr SOT with 120hz
(still testing , changing a lot of settings back and forth trying to get the most out of the battery @120hz refresh rate)
same phone , same type , same specs , but still a different unit , different charging habits & usage habits , can't really expect to have exactly the same in real life performance / SOT just because of applying the same settings , From my point of view (please don't flame me if you disagree) we should only use someone's preset as a reference & we need to experiment with it by ourselves to find the one that suits well for us & our devices ,
besides , have you try to enabled the Adaptive battery ? if yes , for how long ? it needs time to learn the usage habits and may not work right away , but you should see the result soon enough , what about location & background services ? how many apps do you have on your phone (especially 3rd party app) ? how many apps do you regularly use ? how many apps that need regular synchronization for update & notifications ? how many apps that use Usage data access permission ? any google services / assistant apps ? widget & apps on the home screen ? brightness ?
I have only 48 3rd party apps installed on my phone , all apps that requires / use internet connection in the background are disabled with a Package disabler when they're not in use , execpt for Whatsapp of course ,
no location & asisstant service , brightness is always under 20% except when i go outside .
am i a very light user ? depends on how you define what a very light user really is , yes i have only a few apps installed on my phone , yes i don't use any unnecessary background services , but i always set the processing speed to Maximum when browsing , watch videos & games
my cpu usage is very high , even reached it's max for a long period of time quite often , yet still have a relatively low temperature & battery consumption , the only time my battery drain really quick is when playing games but no heating up whatsoever , sounds like nonsense but it is what it is (see the pic from my thermal guardian)
Anyway , here is the screenshot of my SOT after 4 days of updating to One UI 5.0 (October security patch)
not as good as before (One UI 4.1) but not as bad as the first 3 days as far as i can tell .6November Play System update

Feel free to checkout : LEVEL 2 OPTIMISATIONS POST (#6,477)24I have (had) so much going on lately , its been a busy day that i almost forgot to share my settings , i'm so sorry. so yeah i hate to say this , but this post would look like a thread within a thread , just as i said earlier it is quiet a lot , i use almost all the "Recommended Settings" stated in the OP so these are just some "adjustment" & a little bit of addition that i choose based on my personal preferences .
so here it is :
S21+ > One UI 4.1
5% battery/hour of Screen On Time
- APPS -
247 apps Uninstalled
196 apps Installed (system & 3rd party)
56 out of 196 apps are Disabled (system & 3rd party)
Stable & No Bugs (so far) | No Heat
Missing features that i notice are : Bixby , NFC , Quick Share & Galaxy Wearables
( the apps list in the preset are including 3rd party apps , if you see some unknown package name please skip it )
Some adjustment are in regards to these matters :
Battery life , UI smoothness & My personal preferences (feel free to adjust it to your own preferences)
- Wallpaper : in the attachment > my phone screen looks almost completely black it helps to reduce battery consumption
- Color Pallete : only 2 colors black & grey > it is all because of my wallpaper
- I keep my home screen as clean as possible , no widget , only 2 apps Phone & Settings
- Find my device : Off
- Face recognition : Off
- Fingerprint : Off
- Settings > Data usage > Data saver On
- I left Auto restart at set times disabled i restart my device manually only when it is necessary
- I use Samsung Internet Browser instead of Chrome , it has better dark mode , UI , privacy , customization & consume less power
- Advance Features/Gestures : Double tap to wakeup , Double tap to sleep , Swipe screen for screenshot
- I keep System UI & One UI home battery setting unrestricted
but changed the Android System & Samsung Keyboard battery setting to optimized
this was in the OP before.
- All 'Gestural Navigation Bar' apps battery setting are set to restricted , i use buttons for navigation bar
- SmartFPSAdjuster app battery setting set to unrestricted
- Camera app battery setting set to restricted
- I dont use any 'assistant' apps
- If you have the option to change your screen resolution you might want to change it to FHD+ to save even more battery life
FHD+ & WQHD will look exactly the same to the untrained eye
- I have only 2 social media apps installed , Whatsapp & IG
Whatsapp is the only one that i need an instant push notifications on , so i Disabled Instagram using Package Disabler Pro when its not in use
- Auto rotate : Off > Only turn it on when necessary
Or you can do it manually by turning on the Rotate button on navigation bar options.
- Notifications :
Advanced settings
Notification History : Off
Notification reminders : Disabled
App icon badges : Disabled
- Google Settings :
Autofill
Autofill with google : Disabled
Phone number sharing : Disabled
Sms Verification : Disabled
Find My Device : Disabled
- Safety & Emergency :
Send SOS message : Disabled
Emergency Location Services : Disabled
Wireless emergency alerts : Disabled
- Developer Options :
Debugging
Disable adb authorization timeout : Enabled
Networking
Wi-fi scan throtling : Enabled
Tethering Hardware Acceleration : Enabled
- DumpSys :
Go to phone > keypad > *#9900# > Delete dumpstate/logcat & Batterystats reset
- To save even more battery *Optional - Use with caution*
Developer Options > Quick Settings developer tiles
Enable Sync , Sensors Off & Window animation scale
these 3 settings will appear in quick settings panel & you can turn on&off these services from there
turn off Sync will turn off auto Sync data , so you dont have to go to Settings > Accounts & Backup > Manage account to turn Sycn data off
turn off Windows will completely disable the windows animation
turn off Censors will disable your phone censors like gyroscope for example , so auto rotate wont work
Hidden screen mode settings :
Head to Settings > Display > Screen mode
Select 'Natural' from the available options
Adb Put System | screen_mode_setting 0
change the value to any number you want to choose
0 for "AMOLED cinema" 1 for "AMOLED photo" 2 for "Natural" 3 for "Basic" 4 for "Vivid"
I personally use 0 , if you aim for a battery life go for 0 , 2 or 3 , Stay away from Vivid.
To apply the changes go to Settings > Display > Screen Mode > Don't select anything just go back
if you use 0 or 1 the name will be change to AMOLED cinema or AMOLED photo , if you use 3 the change will apply even though the name remain as 'Natural'
but if you check it , neither Natural or Vivid are selected.
Why AMOLED cinema : The best one , it is more bright , sharp & colorful than Basic & Natural but not as colorful as Vivid.
- Optional , but i recommend it
DNS Adguard is probably one of the best when it comes to blocking Ads on a system-wide , it's free and works without even installing any software to your phone , but it might causing more battery consumption , im not sure ,
the theory is that you need to be connected to their server in order for the blocking to work , it keeps sending a request for any internet activites that occurs on the device that may cause more battery drain , logically a phone that doing nothing will have better battery life than the one that constantly connected to a server but again im not really sure about this ,
so i decided to install Disconnect Pro For Privacy & Performance , the app is build exclusively for samsung devices , it blocks all trackers , ads & malware through Knox .
just like Adguard , however , it runs NATIVELY meaning that it has 0 impact on the CPU power & Battery life , it is as good as AdAway which you can only use on a rooted device
the app also shows you what apps are the source of privacy invasive tracking , Google Play Service is at the top of my list by tracking me more than1000+ times within a day , with this app you dont have to connect to Adguard server at all times , it's in the Galaxy Store for about 40$ , a little bit pricey but it's worth it
for now i use Adguard DNS only to unblock some blocked internet content when i'm surfing the internet.
- Adjustment in Adb Optimization settimgs -
SetEdit is highly recommended when it comes to editing the settings from
these 3 categories Global/Secure/System
Put System | lockscreen_minimizing_notification 1
Put System | lockscreen_show_shortcut 0
Put System | lockscreen_sounds_enabled 0
Put Global | boot_count 0 (the value will increase everytime you reboot your device , i personally change the value back to 0 every time it count to 10)
Put Global | phenotype_boot_count 0 (same as the above)
-this counter is only logged since your phone has been last factory reset , this data is stored in settings database ,
wiping data through factory reset is the only way to delete this stored logged data , fortunately i have
access to adb so i just keep revert the value back to 0 whenever i want , or you can even delete the whole string not only the value ,
if you dont care about this minor boot data statistic stored in the database then i suggest you to leave it alone .
but every time the value changed back to 0 the next booting process seems to be much faster ,
it might be a placebo effect , i dont know , but ive been doing this for about 2 months & no negative effect so far.
As for the Battery
Put Global | animator_duration_scale 0.25
put Global | transition_animation_scale 0.25
put Global | window_animation_scale 0.25
- 0.25 is lower than 0.5 , phone feels snappier , no unnecessary animation = less battery drain
Put System | dim_screen 1
Put System | screen_brightness 8 (for indoors only , for outdoors you can adjust as you like)
Put Global | low_power_back_data_off 1
Put Global | sem_power_mode_refresh_rate 0,0-1,0
Put Global | sem_power_mode_refresh_rate_cover 0,0-1,0
- I dont know about these 2 settings , it was there since i use SetEdit to check the Global table
the value was 0,0-60,0 before , i changed it to 0,0-1,0 out of my stupid curiosity and i get a better battery life ,
no negative effect so far , i dont know what could happen to your phone if you try this , but i can guarantee you that it won't make your 120hz screen device to run on 1 FPS , you could always change the value back to the default anyway.
ADAPTIVE BATTERY MANAGEMENT : ENABLED
Now , this is where things gets really interesting to me .
my true intention was to get a great battery life while keeping my device performance as good as possible because i play games too.
and i want my notifications to be uninterrupted by this 'Adaptive Battery' feature because i have Whatsapp too.
just by looking at the name it is crystal clear that Adaptive Battery may help to extend my battery life , but i have read in many many article that it actually not good for my phone.
So i just kept turn this feature on & off for a couple of days , and yes my notifications seems a little bit strange , sometimes it comes too late , or even didnt appear at all on my status bar
it turns out that the feature put my apps into a sleeping state , but i have no issue with my device performance or perhaps it was just unoticed .
but again i have heard that with Adaptive Battery enabled , the battery will restrict the power that are given to the system so the phone runs worse
with the feature enabled , but i decided to kept the Adaptive Battery to be enabled then i've come to realize that in Developer Options > Standby apps the 5 state buckets options is only applied if the Adaptive Battery enabled
while when the Adaptitive Battery was set to disabled all apps was on the Active bucket in Standby apps settings & cannot be change it will remain on Active ( i put the detailed description of every state in the attached file )
App standby buckets help the system prioritize apps request for resources based on how recently and how frequently the apps are used , Based on app usage patterns, each app is placed in one of five priority buckets
the system limits the device resources available to each app based on which bucket the app is in.
as soon as i know about this , i looked to which bucket my Youtube was in , and it was on Active
based on the description of this Standby state feature , the system doesnt give any resources restriction to my Youtube , but Youtube was in my list of Deep Sleeping Apps in the Device Care battery setting and was closed for a couple of hours i force stopped it.
at least it should be on the Frequent , Rare or Restricted bucket but it was not ! then my stupid newbie brain was like
" Okay , these two settings/features are clearly have the same purposes , but they're aren't that related , then why don't i just use BOTH "
So , for the sake of my battery life , i ENABLED the Adaptive Battery options , put my unused apps to Deep Sleep in the Device Care & put them on the Restricted bucket state in Developer Options.
Tips : - if you want the app to connect to the internet simply put them on 'Working set' state
- When you open an app it'll automatically move to the Active state , the system does not give any resource restriction to that app , so if you really care about your battery life just put it back to the Restricted state everytime you close that app , it'll automatically change the state but it takes time , so just do it manually , it took less than 10 seconds for me to do so .
Yet , i still have something on my mind that bothering me all the time ,
And yes it was about my notifications and device performance , even though i didn't notice any performance issue on a daily basis activities i still worried about how my device performs in a high processing tasks such as gaming or editing high quality videos
i can't help it , i need to find the solutions at least my 'own' solutions.
and this is what i did :
- Notifications :
Simply put the app to the Never Sleeping Apps would help , but enabling Adaptive Battery will activate the Standby apps bucket , and if the apps are in the Frequent , Rare & Restricted
the system will give some restriction for the apps to connect to the internet (according to the description)
therefore there is a chance that it will interrupt the notifications from the app , FORTUNATELY , you can just stop & prevent the apps from entering the Restricted apps Standby bucket by simply go to Settings > Apps > Choose which app > Set the battery to Unrestricted
I did it to my Whatsapp , now it's working just fine i got the notifications on time (Please take a look in the attached file)
- Performance :
- Game Optimization Service & Game Booster , these two apps have many Permissions that may ruining my device & game experience
for example : both apps have a SET_PROCESS_LIMIT permissions there is no point to have this two services , so i just stopped them from running by disabling them with Package Disabler Pro.
I dont uninstall them i'm afraid that it would left my phone unstable.
- I installed Thermal Guardian , part of Good Guardian app , the app lets you control your Thermal Threshold , i choose to have a higher thermal limit it can increased the limit for up to 2°c which is the maximum allowed by this app , +2°c is not a big deal but still boost the performance and helps to maintain it when the device gets a little bit warm .
- Put Global | enhanced_processing 1
- Put Global | restricted_device_performance 0,0
- Put Global | sem_enhanced_cpu_responsiveness 1
We all know what these 3 settings do to our device , FORTUNATELY enough
enabling the Adaptive Battery doesn't change the value of these settings .
Phone runs smooth , even better than when i first bough the phone , battery life is amazing , no performance issue , never heat up even when i do some multitasking stuff , the only time it gets a little bit warm is when playing Mobile Legends (moba game just like Dota , beautiful graphic , very popular here in Asia) and the warm is very acceptable.
If i'm right , then my phone is running on the Peformance Mode all the times with no battery drain whatsoever while Adaptive Battery setting set to ENABLED so that i have access to the Standby apps feature in Developer Options & get even more settings to extend my battery life .
If i'm wrong , then i don't know what sorcery is this .
1 thing that i learned , every changes & adjusments take times to shows its results . For example : when i disable RAM plus & GOS for the first time , right after the phone was rebooted , it feels worse , much much worse , my UI was a little bit lagging/stuttering , the temperature feels hotter than before , the battery seems to be drain much faster , but what i did was just use my phone as usual , charge my phone as usual , give it some time to adapt to the new settings , as the time goes by it gets better , it keeps getting better & better & now all works great as i wanted.16
I just switched to S22, i'm back. Expect news shortlyTHE GOAT IS BACK
Exynos S22 here, base model, as always. Also, i'm running Android 13 beta.14
I did however, follow all the ADB commands that are suggested in OP. I'm running on FHD+, Adaptive Motion Smoothness (via Galaxy Max Hz app), Processing speed set to Optimized. Enabled CPU Responsiveness, enabled performance limit. I know it sounds crazy, but I get the best of both worlds with the performance limit ON and CPU Responsiveness ON, the phone is insanely fast and battery is great. I tried different combinations and this has been my best result in terms of battery life and I'm still at 42%. My benchmarks are still 1200, 3400.
No power saving. No adaptive power saving. Adaptive battery off. No adaptive brightness. I have a bunch of apps in sleep and deep sleep. Mostly WiFi since I work remotely and some light LTE usage. I turned off 5G. I manually set RAM Plus to 1GB. Dark Mode and my Location are on at all times.
S22 Ultra US Unlocked Snapdragon 512gb.
Here are all the commands I used:
2 - Disable Background Scanning
- adb shell settings put global ble_scan_always_enabled 0
- adb shell settings put system nearby_scanning_enabled 0
3 - Unlock RAM Plus Configurations
- adb shell settings put global ram_expand_size_list 0,1,2,4,6,8,12,16
Reboot then go to settings and set RAM Plus to 1GB.
5 - Disable Motion Engines
- adb shell settings put system master_motion 0
- adb shell settings put system motion_engine 0
- adb shell settings put system air_motion_engine 0
- adb shell settings put system air_motion_wake_up 0
7 - Disable User Manual
- adb shell settings put global online_manual_url 0
8 - Extra battery
- adb shell settings put global app_standby_enabled 1
- adb shell settings put system mcf_continuity 0
IV-B - EXTREME BATTERY OPTIMISATION
3 - Enable Performance Limit
- adb shell settings put global restricted_device_performance 1,1
IV-P - EXTREME PERFORMANCE OPTIMISATION
2 - Enable Improved App Responsiveness
Changing processing speed in settings disables this
- adb shell settings put global sem_enhanced_cpu_responsiveness 1
