Uninstalling didn't work in the past because it somehow got reinstalled but I don't know if it's fixed on One Ui 5
Not only your recommended preset but also his and I decided to merge both two and not to mention that I used the new present as a basis for removing apps and not my old one with the apps that caused drainage. After all the cell phone is very stable with most of its functions, but needing to adjust certain points but running well.
I got it thanks. I know it's off topic but is there a way to disable one ui home. It disables navigation but was hoping with adb or SetEdit you could turn it back on
I disabled the GOS by giving ADB authorization to the App Manager program with the wireless debugging method. the good thing is that it can be done without a computer

I have used Nova launcher for years, what I would like to do is disable one ui home. Of course you can disable it but you lose navigation functions, does anyone know a way to disable one ui home but use abd or SetEdit or something to restore navigation functions?
Navigation is integrated with the main launcher of the system, only root and android pie can do this feat.
How did you got 0B on GOS? I already disabled and clear the GOS but still got that 6MB. It bothers me thinking that its still on background

Disabled apps can't run in the background.
Your phone even can go into bootloop if you disable the wrong apps so they are not even running while booting
Ah yesss i forgot to mention about refresh rate , yes i play alot with my refresh rate i would say its very situational , mine is @90hz most of the time , but i also lowered it to 60hz at some point , for example (but not always) : if i just listening to some music or podcast in the background i would probably set it down to 60hz , what is the point to have a high refresh rate when i didn't even scroll , touch or look at it ?
I rarely use 120hz , i don't use 120hz unnecessarily , I mean Samsung WQHD Amoled Screen (which is best in the market) + 120hz + SD888 with only 4800mAh are not a very good combination if we want to talk about battery life , i know the feelings that once you go 120hz you don't wanna go back , but remember there are a lot of Iphone 11 users who sees their device at 60hz & they can still live with it , comfortably. So yeah , if i want to achieve something there must be something to sacrifice , sometimes this is just the way that life goes you know , but of course this is just my opinion from my POV

I'm really sorry , i must have forgotten to edit MyPreset , it's updated now .Please also share your disabled presents
btw i see tht SDHMS uninstalled. then i guess adaptive battery doesnt work and we cannot put apps in deep sleep and etc
and i see smartfpsadjuster is also uninstalled but u wrote tht it is set to unrestricted
confused
Excluded from the preset are :
Sdhms , Smartfps & Forest/Digital Wellbeing , Digital Wellbeing is in the list of disabled apps .
There you go.
Note : Include 20+ restored apps for stability & functionality that i forgot to exclude them from the previous preset.
Those apps are Talk Back , Edge Panel & Knox related stuff (some of them ended up in disabled list apps)
I restore even though i don't use them , just to have a more stable device & no battery issue so far , still the same if not better.

Have you try to uninstall the updates ? (Gos) simply disabling the app wouldn't erase/decrease its size , uninstalling update of the app does , but after some time it will increases again but not much , here is mine after 2 months of disabling & uninstalling the update.

lo que pasa es que estuve todo el dia estudiando para el examen final de la U, ahi se ve la oficina activa como 6 horas jajajaI'm slightly concerned that you used your phone for 9 hours and 6 minutes without putting it down even once. 0 minutes of standby time (screen off) is impressive.
Now touch grass
Mod translation: What happens is that I was studying all day for the final exam of the U, there you can see the active office for like 6 hours hahaha1Hey everyone, I've been away because I had to take care of my relationship and college.
During this time I was testing a new configuration that is being useful for performance and ram usage and also in low cpu usage.
This is a command in the global table, 'activity_manager_constants' I'm still testing this command, but I would like to know if anyone is willing to see if it's feasible to use it.
If anyone is interested use this command: adb shell settings put global activity_manager_constants max_cached_processes=0,background_settle_time=60000,fgservice_min_shown_time=2000,fgservice_min_report_time=3000,fgservice_screen_on_before_time=1000,fgservice_screen_on_after_time=5000,content_provider_retain_time=20000,gc_timeout=5000,gc_min_interval=60000,full_pss_min_interval=1200000,full_pss_lowered_interval=300000,power_check_interval=300000,power_check_max_cpu_1=0,power_check_max_cpu_2=0,power_check_max_cpu_3=0,power_check_max_cpu_4=0,service_usage_interaction_time=1800000,usage_stats_interaction_interval=7200000,service_restart_duration=1000,service_reset_run_duration=60000,service_restart_duration_factor=0,service_min_restart_time_between=10000,service_max_inactivity=1800000,service_bg_start_timeout=15000,CUR_MAX_CACHED_PROCESSES=0,CUR_MAX_EMPTY_PROCESSES=0,CUR_TRIM_EMPTY_PROCESSES=0,CUR_TRIM_CACHED_PROCESSES=0
This one is for devices with low ram.
I almost forgot, this command is just in case you want to have more performance in games, I don't recommend using it for your daily life and it can also vary by device.
Note: Your device will heat up when applying it and restarting, and this is normal, because the cpu will be almost always at maximum, and I'm going to show you some images of my test of it.
If you have problems, just remove this command via adb, setedit, ladb and brevent.
Edit: you won't multitask with this command.1
What's the values for activity_manager_contants and fgservices_min_rep?
These commands works on Oneui 4.1? -

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

- What i like to do (OPTIONAL) is i restore everything, reboot, update all the apps (I'm using TEST preset), then debloat again, clear cache partition (x3) then repair apps.
- The result after is always great, you stay updated just in case, it let's android do its remediation process, and clears all data/cache of all uninstalled apps.
- It also helps eliminate all the bugs (if any) caused by mass debloat without maintenance steps.
- And foremost, it makes you remember what a crappy, sluggish and OVERHEATING phone you had before discovering this thread

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
