Looking for battery whitelist - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

For Oreo 8.1, we have the app battery usage warning UX. This can be controlled by the user on a per app basis.
For Pie 9.0, the obnoxious UX is apparently gone, but there seems to be a new set of app battery usage monitoring that happens without a user facing message. (I admit I'm not 100% sure about this, but it seems to be the case from what I've read in the AOSP docs so far.)
For both 8.1 and 9.0, is there a system level whitelist? If I am an OEM and have an app that I know would trigger the UX (8.1) or management (9.0), it seems likely there is a whitelist or other way that I can control that behavior.
Can anyone point me to more information about this?

0,1%/hr Battery Drain! at Standby

For most of us, the phone is more asleep than it' s in operation. That's why choosing the correct ROM & Kernel is essential for your battery.
I wanted to figure out which ROM is best regarding battery life when the screen is off and how to reach the best result.
I Started testing with the CM13 as it supports Xposed and Amplify, great batterysavers.
I'll Keep this updated per 1 or 2 days.
BetterBatteryStats Calculation.
The app to calculate the drain is called BetterBatteryStats, a well known app.
If I look at my stats: View attachment 0.2.txt I can see the voltage went down from 4402 to 4313 (-89) in 1223minutes. That's 60 x 89/ 1223 = 4.366%/hour = 4.4%, which is correctly showing in BBS in the attached file. Now I translate this to percentages: 4.4% voltage decrease x 5% battery decrease / 89 = 0.245%/hour battery. This is again correct according to BBS. I guess this is a fair calculation. the voltages seem to go up and down all the time, so I don't understand how it's an exact calculation but ok.
Settings
Batterysaving settings - Please KEEP IN MIND It's in a TEST Stage, probably things won't work if you Limit everything like I did, but I didn't encounter many problems =)
-Install Amplify and limit as much of crap you can possibly do. I limited the following to 999999 seconds (lol)
The wakelock names differ to every ROM. That's why I won't name them all. I'll update tomorrow the wakelocks , alarms and services I limited in the xiaomi.eu ROM.
Install Greenify: Aggressive Doze, Working mode: Boost, WakeupTime Coalescing, Deep Hibernation, Gcm Push, Greenifying system apps, Reveal Hidden sync.
And then hybernate all crap, except basic stuff the phone needs. I Hybernated for example: AudioFx, Google play services, live lock screen, nfc service, weather service, google service Framework etc.
General Settings: Wifi never keep on during sleep, BT off, NFC off, Sounds off, Vibrate off, Brightness minimal, no adaptive brightness, disable adjustments, no ambient display, no double tap to wake and sleep, sleep after 5 min, no battery and notification lights, % battery in statusbar, no sync accounts, location off, Developer options: 0,0x animation and duration scales, Play store: dont update, deselect app updates available.
Battery History App: I installed it to monitor at what exact time it decreases every percentage. So I noticed that from 100% to 99% it takes mostly 6 hours or so, while the rest is much lower (around 1 to 3 hours) You can save more battery by not installing this as it has many wakelocks.

Are you using cm13 snapshot or nightly(which build)? Also any custom kernel with it?
I installed the 20/12 snapshot, and installed the DragonXIA CM based Kernel

Thanks my friend, I have the paid version but I downloaded it from somewhere on XDA without paying, and amplify aswell.
I actually got 0,1%/hour with the xiaomi.eu ROM with android 6.0 with xposed and amplify and greenify and powernap. (android 7.0 is not supported by xposed and amplify) I will upload new details tomorrow!

Should I switch to an AOSP based Oreo ROM?

Ok so Holi(A festival in India) is coming up & I have 4 days off, I thought this would be a nice time to upgrade to Oreo 8.1 from SlimROM Nougat 7.1.2 with my 200 apps also consisting of root, xposed & substratum dependent apps. After a quick search, I found that there were many ROMs that are marked as stable like the Pixel Experience ROM, Nitrogen OS but I've heard reports that all of them have a network standby battery drain bug. I won't have time after Holi for any ROM switching so I want to make sure the ROM I'm selecting doesn't have any bugs. Every customization feature I need is covered by xposed modules, so I don't need any ROM specific features, must just properly support substratum root mode & must be close to AOSP. Can anyone suggest a stable bug-free Oreo 8.1 ROM for the RN3 & also confirm whether the network standby battery bug exists or not? Thanks.
The network standby bug is there on nos. But the battery usage is still around the same as nougat, maybe a little lower. I think its some problem with the battery statistics where it just reports network as the main cause of drain, while actually its not.
Go for omni. If you can stay without a lot of customization then omni ir cardinal sgould be good. On top of that flash a kernel. Shadow or Agni are the ones that have goodix support in oreo. Personally agni is robust. I had been using omni with agni 12.2 and i get SOT's like 10-11 hours(moderate use).

PowerGenie not working?

I'm currently using an Honor 10 on EMUI 8.1 COL-L29 8.1.0.120(C432), and noticed that Huawei's PowerGenie doesn't seem to be running or having any effect.
PowerGenie is a background process on EMUI devices that's supposed to change the CPU/GPU clock speeds based on different scenarios in order to conserve battery life, but it can also be manipulated on rooted devices to boost performance for specific apps, like this. On previous Honor devices I was able to modify files like /product/etc/hwpg/normal_cpu_policy.xml to boost performance for emulators but on the Honor 10 the same method seems to have no effect on CPU clock speeds.
For example, on the Honor 9 I monitored CPU clock speeds and can see that they were locked to maximum when an app I specified was running in the foreground, however on the Honor 10 the CPU speed is not locked at maximum, and will fluctuate.
After doing some testing, it seems that none of the stock settings from the xml file were having any effect either, even on an unmodified device. PowerGenie was also not running at all in the background.
Could someone else test to see if PowerGenie is functional on EMUI 8.1 for Honor 10, or has it been disabled for all devices for some reason?
Edit:
Apps like Kernel Tasker also have zero effect on CPU speeds, slider values are being ignored and the system just clocks them at whatever value it wants.
Update:
It's now working. I'm not sure what made it functional again, but it works. The last thing I did before it started working was change screen resolution from "Smart" to "FHD+", but I'm not sure if that's the cause.

Yes and read OP please.
This ROM is awesome. It is pretty stable too. The boot logo is not very appealing. I will keep using it. No bug so far.

I have found one issue, with the phone app. When I try to call someone it doesn't show the call being forwarded,so you can't end the call. And When I am called I can't pick up since there is no prompt for accepting or rejecting call. A problem with the Google dialer maybe.

I ve been using it since last night. receiving texts emails and phone calls, its worth the effort . its a lovely rom.
The battery is pretty terrible, it cant charge while playing, it was draining while charhing so fast, i ofc did a clean install, camera app fails a lot as well, and you cant set every live wallpaper from pixel wallpaper changer it force closes.. i hope in the future you can fix these the rom felt smooth until i started playing games and noticed it wasnt charging while playing..
Hi Dev.
I wiped my data and installed your rom. Everything was perfect. But the galaxy wearable app was force closing.
Could you please help me to solve this problem.
Best regards

Wait what XD. Never experienced this bug. Maybe a charging cable issue? Also, there are two cameras included. GCam isn't as stable as stock by a long shot, so use stock if GCam crashes too much.
Also abt Gear Wearable. Since I extensively debloated this ROM, it is possible I removed something that I shouldn't have. Not to worry, I will release an update next month (Not now because of exams)

Im back on my old 9.0 rom and everything is working just fine, i dont know what the issue was here, but ill check the update when its ready thanks!
Please add Adapt Sound feature if possible in a future build.
Fast, smooth and stable rom. But it has really bad battery usage. The older one(teampixel oreo) vas great at battery usage.
Also i can't find the "Power saving mode". There is no toggle in notification bar and i cant find a way to enable it in settings menu. Anyyone know is it possible to use Power saving mode on this rom?

Hello! The reason battery life was significantly better on Oreo was due to Oreo having a fully working Phantom Kernel! At this point, I'm just waiting for an update to that kernel, so that I can incorporate it, into the ROM, along with adapt sound, Dual Messenger, Gear 360 bug fix and Screen Write (Samsung Capture) since that it the only "useful" Note Feature that can't just be simply added back. I'll also be incorporating a few tweaks here and there to improve performance where possible! Keep an eye out for V1.1
just flashed phantom kernel v2 all ok

Alternative to Game Tuner on Android Pie

It is my first time consulting in XDA apologies for any errors in advance. My query is if there is something that can be used to replace Game Tuner, in Android Pie it does not work anymore and it lacks the option to improve the Hardware Performance. Using an S8 + and in games is like using an S4 for current games without Game Tuner, the performance is really bad. Apart from the option to go back to Android Oreo, is there any way to improve the performance of Hardware?:confuso::Rodar los ojos::llorando:
