When the Pace auto-locks , the watchface enter in a mode that not show all its glory .
How to disable auto-lock in order to display the watchface allways on and allways working in real time and if thats possible , with the backlight also allways on ?
You do understand that your battery will end in less than a day, right?

Yes , i know that ...
Nevertheless , it will never drain as much battery as those android smartwatches with oled displays .
Is it possible to do what i asked?
Definitely will impact battery life. After all screen will be refreshed every second instead of every minute. But on another hand, you are right, without backlight should not drain that much. LCD itself is not power hungry. Would be nice to test.

i don't get it
"it will never drain as much battery as those android smartwatches with oled displays"
we have something that it has (at least in most cases) black background
oled is better (for battery consumption) with black background , lcd it isn't
so maybe it will be worse than "those android with oled displays" ?

Will not. LCD itself is quite battery friendly. Remember those old watches with LCD who lasted for months, even years?
Modern LCDs have much higher resolution but still the main power drainer is backlight. Without that, Amazfit should last quite long. Of course, lower screen resolution drains less. That's why Amazfit use it.
This is just conversation, I'm fine how Pace is made.
Could you please stick to the point : How can i disable auto-lock ?
you cant disable. thats it.
If i saw it right , the menu structure is like this :
BACKLIGHT :
- auto
- unlocked only
- allways on
- off
DOUBLE TAP :
- on
-off
Does this means that you cant disable auto-lock BUT can set the backlight allways on and double tap to unlock , instead of pressing the button ?
In this case, does the battery lasts for at least one full day ?

I was just going to start a thread on this topic, but I'll reply to yours instead
I have the 3500mAh battery from Amazon an had been getting terrible battery life. I did a few things to improve it
- turn off display always on feature
- clear app Cache
- power off, pulled battery, reinsert battery, fully charge
Those seem to have improved overall screen on time performance to a little over 4 hours now. Hoping close to 5, but we'll see how it goes by end of day.
After a few days of improved and repeatable battery performance, I might re-enable the 'always on' feature and gauge it's impact.
I guess the 'official' line from LG is that it always-on impact on battery *should* be negligible, but I need to prove that out myself. Otherwise, I have a feeling it was contributing to my lackluster battery performance.
Good luck with your battery life?. I think LG should have stuck with an AMOLED display with the g5 especially if they wanted to have the always on display. With an IPS lcd panel, the backlight will always be on and the time and notifications would be unreadable (I think a led notification light was enough) but I'm glad they decided to use an AMOLED panel with the v30.
One of my friends(unscedeo) rooted his G5, used L Speed, and used a custom kernel (called Asgard reborn) and was able to get 5 hours of sot with the battery that comes with the phone and with the always on display enabled. If you're into rooting I would recommend you do that.

Nice! Thanks for the tip. I plan on doing this soon, but going to ride out the stock experience for a while.

Wanted to add that I have Bluetooth on 24/7 with Android Wear & Moto Body connected/running. WiFi is on and connected for about 2.5 hours of the day (mostly at home during morning and evening), but use cellular for most of the day.
Also, just turned on Pixel 2 Live Wallpapers, so pretty sure my battery life is all downhill from here

I think cellular data and Bluetooth might be responsible for battery drain. On my g5 plus I turned on my LTE for 5 minutes and it drained 1%. I agree the pixel wallpapers are buggy. I have a sd 625 and it significantly slows down the device and crashes Nova launcher. I think it's best to give the development some time.

I might have to disagree, Im pretty happy with my ips display and I would take it over amoled anyday even if it means having a lower battery life
And they used OLED panels for the v30 so oled by itself is power efficiency

I actually agree. Now looking back the only phone which I used that had an amoled display was my galaxy nexus and now I am kind of glad that my phone has in ips lcd display. One of the advantages is there is no screen burn-in.

If you want to root later have you tried the power saving mode under settings? have never owned a LG device but I think there's a quick toggle or it's buried somewhere in the battery settings .

I know right! The colors are so vibrant and so alive and it worth any sacrifice!
Every picture I take on my phone look so incredible through the display and once I watch my pictures on my computer TN display, it doesn't look as alive and kicking.
Unfortunately i suffer from screen burn in but it's whatever as long as it's not permanent, the display is still amazing! I love colors
I can't wait to have an oled screen, but that will be only in the future, my LG g5 is only recent and oled smartphones are still in their diaper stage, as the oled on the v30 and the iPhone 8 (which is yet still provided by lg) is POlED, which to apple's sayings, it's just an upgraded amoled screen with oled technology
I agree lcd displays ftw. I think you might have image retention and there's a simple fix for that. I believe there are different apps on the play store which will remove most to all of it. Good luck?
Haha yeah, I'm using Blue Filter app, it used to work outstandingly at the first half a year! But it seems to work less better and the ghosting is starting to suppress it, i by of course can higher my setting on the app but I don't want too much of a red/green/grey/yellow screen.. So i just might have to live along it's side!
Oh man. I think a blue light filter is a must. Try this app out. A lot of LG G5 users gave it 5 stars so it's worth a try:laugh:.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blasterbyte.burn_infix
Oh i have it, i have been using it haha
It's just that it's not working as much anymore since my screen burn in got worse
But thank you!
Oh man. You're welcome.
Hi,
Been using the Xperia 1 for 2 weeks,
the battery time is quite short for me.
I do most whatsapp, youtube
start working at 9am and around 2pm the phone is around 30ish %
I don't like using Stamina mode (the balance saving version), because i like the always on display (ambient display)
the power saving mode will save more battery however it will make the scrolling chopping which i hate the most
anyways, any bro out there been playing with the "background process limit"
the default is set as standard limit, if i reduce it to 2, will it really save battery or will make the phone not running properly.
or any other hint to save battery throughout a day like 9am to 9pm?
Display is always set to adaptive.
Wifi always on, in the working 9 hours will have over 6 hours with WIFI connection.
Battery life is awesome! Never had this before with a sony phone...
5 hours sot and still 30%
Be sure to use the "adaptive battery" thingy, seems usefull.

Thanks and it is already turned on.
My previous phones were Huawei P20 and Mate 20 pro, can't compare to those.
So i compare with my more previous phones which i still own, the Samsung S8+
battery life is even less.
Is there a way to reduce the screen resolution? I know it is a bad move buying a 4k phone and reduce the resolution but i just want to see if it will help.
My other phones would allow me to select 1080 or 1440, but i don't see this option in Xperia 1

Phones mostly in 1080 so reducing it further won't make much difference to battery
Smartcleaner should be turned off. This causes the drain of battery.
I experienced a noticeable increase in battery life with Creator Mode disabled...
It fits me just right because you can't use Creator Mode an Night Light at the same time, and I use Night Light all the time...
Also, Always On Display uses a lot of battery...

Does anyone facing this problem of battery drain and heating of device after August Color OS Update.
Standby drain is 4-5 % per hour and screen on time is less than 5 hours.
I checked all the settings uninstalled all apps and checked the network settings, rebooted, checked in airplane mode also but the battery drain is the same.
Even while charging it is going more warm than before. If anyone is facing the issue please respond.
Oppo Reno 10x Zoom has very less reach to people and Oppo is not bothered about its device.

When I got the Mobile the first thing I did was update the patch.....so I am unaware of before and after stuff.....but It got heated only once while downloding and charging simultaneously (41°c). Also it gets a bit heated while charging when the AC / fan in the room is off(I guess that's normal).
From my past mobile experiences, a reset could help u out (take backup of data before reset).
U could also check in Battery setting which app is consuming more power.

I have did the reset and checked, and while charging only its getting heated up which I think is normal. But what about battery drain?
Can u check what is your standby battery drain, my previous Oneplus 5 has drain less than 1% per hour with AOD but Oppo Reno 10x Zoom is taking 4% per hour and that is huge.
Hello anybody please respond about standby drain of reno 10x zoom.

Yes and daily its different app and just which app i use more thats only showing
And also when i check whole days power consumption , highest is whatsapp with 11 percent and the total mah used is 218mah for a whole day.
So, if 218 percent is 11 percent a whole day and consider i charged once fully, total for 100 percent is around 2000mah.
So where the rest 2000 mah is going, and its going when the screen is off.
I dont know what to do.
I have worse problem than this. Battery is draining at 10% per hour rate. And strange thing is that even if I switch off mobile, it will drain battery with same rate. May be hardware problem.

exactly! realme atleast responds positively. This Oppo brand team is ****. Even realme doesnt like color os hence opting for new OS
After 1 week of use and compare of some settings -->
1. Don't use dark mode in OS or app settings.
Reason: it will not save any power on LCD display but you will have to increase the Backpanel light to be able to read everything.
2. Disable 120Hz setting for now.
Reason: I am not sure if it is a bug but my display stays at 120Hz...all the time (except running YouTube with 60Hz). Even if I don't touch the screen at all.
You can check the actual fps in Developer options - power monitor.
Results: 2h game playing, whatsapp, spotify and browser usage...I have 6h SOT and still more then 50% battery left.
I wasn't able to get 6h SOT on my OnePlus 6 at all
Info: I didn't use plane mode over night. Wifi was active all the time.
Bloatware is removed and using AD blocker.
I have that sot with 120hz, I don't think it makes much of a difference . I use 60 only when traveling
Same settings ofc. Wifi all the time. But I use videoconference software
One more: use samsung browser which is known to use less battery
Also use nightmode slider to set brightness correctly (maximum here) otherwise you might end using more brightness on low light because nightmode brightness is too low
+1 on the other things
You can get rid of most of miui bloatware apps.
It will probably help with battery
whats the point of buying a 120hz display if you have to disable it?

Anyone else having problems with automatic brightness changes?
Every evening when it gets dark the brightness level goes to the lowest level, which is much to dark to read anything. Every evening I have to adjust the ''automatic'' level to halfway the level-slider, multiple times.
Do you have night mode enabled ?
I have this feature enabled from 9pm to 7am and indeed the auto brightness goes lower than normal value during this time slot .

The same is happening to me. The brightness of the screen in darker lights is too low. Every time I move the slider to upper brightness but next time I open the screen is lower again.

I might state the obvious, but the sensor is a bit high up on the device and it might be covered by your phone case, u sure it's not just a goof with an off brand cover?
The sensor is not covered. I use an original OnePlus cover.
Strange thing ... Everybody or at least majority of Oneplus Nord 2 owners had complained about automatic brightness . It's true in my case as well but now problem is solved with a 3-d party apk . Velis Auto Brightness from G.Play . Calibrating autobrightness is very accurate but the app remain active in background all the time and I didn't know how this affect battery drain . I read all OnePlus latest phones have this annoying bug and it's pitty none of latest updates solved it , worst here on XDA or OnePlus forum no one offer any solutions to calibrate automatic brightness .
Some smart guys said there is not "automatic brightness" but "adaptive brightness" so we had to learn phone AI how to adjust brightness a few days and then restart the phone . This are childish thoughts of those which are nothing to do else .
So , what do you think about this ? There are solutions to calibrate or fix this issue ?
I noticed that when the phone is on below 15% or lower and the battery saver is on ( for me it's 10%) the phone brightness goes to automatic mode and it becomes even less bright. I think it has to be a certain feature which is connected to battery saving IMO.
I'm using Velis for 3 months as well. This solves the problem. But OnePlus definitely should solve this.
Even latest update v11.3 EU, doesn't solve it. I even did a factory reset. 3 hours work to reset everything back as is was, for nothing...
Look at a possible solution (for me didn't work) :

Hopefully this is the "fix"! But disabling a feature is NOT a fix, it's a workaround. Luckily I don't need that feature
