Hi, I'm new in Marshmallow and I was wondering about what apps should I put in Doze whitelist.
At the moment I've put Amplify, BetterBatteryStats, Greenify and Wakelock Detector. However Greenify is shown in my battery stats as consuming 3% of total battery.
Considering I have xposed (and have chosen "shallow hibernation" and "aggressive doze" in greenify settings), should I choose "optimize battery" for Greenify in Doze settings or not?
is greenify running as device administrator?
whatever, u shud put it on whitelist.
No need to, having xposed (and boost mode on). I'll let it on whitelist anyway, thank you!
Yes or else the auto hibernation won't work.

So the correct answer is to uncheck battery optimization for Greenify in doze settings?

I want to know is this two doing the same thing?
First i thought STAMINA mode only disabling data transfer only but stamina mode closes the Greenify app and its Auto hibernation when phone on standby.
To work Auto hibernation i have to add Greenify in STAMINA mode "APPS ACTIVE IN STANDBY" section.
Is this mean STAMINA mode also closes the apps on the phone?
If answer is yes then why i need Greenify addition to STAMINA mode?
Please help me out.
I'm using Sony xperia sp (C5303) rooted.

Well Stamina halts applications while the device is in its sleep. Greenify however, hibernates an application. A hibernated application won't run unless something wakes it up. Unlike Stamina, once you wake your device from sleep, all activities will be resumed!
You can benefit both of functionalities, by adding Greenify into the list of apps in the Stamina settings. This will yield a more battery saving result, being Greenify to hibernate apps, and Stamina to halt other apps from running, when your device is in its sleep.

thanks for the quick reply

I need some help. From where should I select Greenify application into "Stamina Mode'' list. I can't find any apps in standby section.
Right now, since I started using Greenify I had deselect Battery Stamina Mode. Sorry for the English.

Simply touch Stamina Mode. You will be taken to the next screen with Add Applications. Then add Greenify to it.

I have some apps like around 10 apps like Alarm, Calender which I have whitelisted in Greenify, do I also have to add all these 10 apps in whitelist of Stamina mode ?

Yes, If you want the app to function properly while the phone is sleeping, you will need to add those apps in the Stamina whitelist as well
Hello,
I was having issues with Greenify + Doze + LED notifications, so I decided not to optimize battery for Whatsapp and not to Greenify it neither.
I was optimizing the rest and in the end Whatsapp became the most battery consuming application on my phone. So I dug into that again. I did not find how it could be done on the net. Sorry if there is a cleaner solution, I never found it. This post is intended to share my findings.
What you can expect? You can expect to activate Doze, to Greenify Whatsapp and still receive real-time notifications via LED.
What could I not make work? Doze battery optimization for Whatsapp.
My configuration: Android Marshmallow, Greenify 2.9, Whatsapp 2.16.225
You require: Xposed, Greenify paid version, Xposed module XLED and, for sure, Whatsapp.
I think that the trick is done thanks to XLED module. I also tried Light Flow and it seems to work. However, it seemed to consume more battery than Whatsapp itself.
XLED, on the contrary, does not consume battery “at all”, at least it doesn't appear in the top of battery consuming records.
Greenify configuration:
Installed with Xposed (set to boost)
Paid version
Deep hibernation activated
Aggressive doze activated
All Xposed options enabled except the one concerning the vulnerability in previous versions of Android 4.3
Whatsapp is not optimized for Doze (on System, Battery, Battery optimization). If I let Whatsapp optimized, I loose notifications.
On XLED module, I create a configuration for Whatsapp: I activate “Enable custom LED”, and “Force LED Flashing”. The rest, I leave with default values.
To reduce even more battery, I removed for Whatsapp the right to “Keep awake” via AppOpsXposed. This is for sure optional.
And that is. For me, so far, so good.
PS: What I am missing is the Doze battery optimization and the vibration in Doze mode. I do not know how to enable vibration on Doze. It is maybe against the principle of Doze but still I miss it.
thanks. i really need whatsapp no matter what...
even i add it to white list.. no it didnt work. i paid it. now i will try your method
I know that by the nature of doze, the device wakes up every hour or so.
Also shallow hibernation says it will allow the apps to wake every so often. My question is if shallow hibernation causes doze to wake up more often than it normally would? Thank you
That's a good question... There are also two settings for aggressive doze I wondered if both should be ticked when on xposed

I believe I can help you understand the two settings on aggressive doze. The first option enables "Doze on the go" which allows aggressive doze to work while your device is moving, the second option provides debug notifications when your device enters doze mode. If you are in Boost mode you can also enable "Doze on the go" through the Xposed options.

I invented Google. Schmidt, Page, and Brin merely stole my idea
Does the app and the built in function of the o+3t do exactly the same thing or would installing the app improve battery life?
I'm curious as well on my OP5

Im using Greenify with my (ROOTED) o+3t. I made some test sessions with BBS and Geenify (with AD) improve MY battery life. I also hibernating few apps that waking up device too often. You need try and check if it can improve yours battery life. But with my device it does.
EDIT: Oneplus removed that built in function few betas ago. But what i remember it didnt worked with notifications so good than greenify does.
Any tip not to loose notifications?
I'm using Greenify on a rooted OP3T (OOS OB 13) and I'm getting good battery life with more that 7h SOT.
Only in the same time I have lost most of my notifications. And all the settings (Battery Optimization, Advanced Optimization, Nougat doze mode and Greenify) and last OS changes (aggressive doze seems to no longer be there), I getting a bit lost into trial and fail.
Any advice on how to make the best use of Greenify on my device, without loosing notification would be welcome.

Assuming Android 6.x base:
- you will need to install Xposed Framework and the donation build of Greenify for best results
- enable "Doze on the go" which is perhaps the most important tweak on MM
- also enable wake-up timer coalescing and permission to Greenify system apps
- forget about aggressive/shallow doze and/or deep hibernation (reasons are outside scope of this post); likely the source of your notification issue
- temporarily disabled other power/battery optimization apps such as Amplify, Force Doze, Power Nap, etc.
- remove any apps previously excluded from battery optimization unless you are highly confident they do not perform well unless excluded
- clear all apps from Greenify's action list
That should correct any notification issues assuming Greenify and/or one of the above apps was the culprit. You can monitor and add 'bad actors' to Greenify's action list as needed. On most devices this list should be very short (assuming Android 6.x or better).
I'm unrooted Samsung s9 plus user. Use force doze and naptime for faster dozing. My question is which is better greenify or the built in "always sleeping" option for preventing apps from running in the background?
Greenify, I am unrooted as well and have noticed great battery life improvements since using it. I have it set up to use aggressive doze.
