Ill get started developing one, debating weather to make it free or 99 cents D:. I need the money bad.

Can any one give me some images to see what "Light cycles are?" I've never watched tron, but im sure i can work something out.

I think a 1 or 2 second looping light cycle scene would rock, if you can get the loop to be some what seamless, me love you long time!!
The problem with the one available in the market now is the video quality is poor and it plays slow too

There is....it's an app called Video Live Wallpaper, making video your wallpaper does have obvious device performance trade offs but it's not nothing too serious. Check it out.

Thank you. I downloaded the app, but it's not showing on my apps list I deleted LauncherPro to see if that was the issue, but using TW didn't find it either. I've reset and still no luck, yet when I go into AppMonster, it says it's installed, but I can't launch it.
EDIT: Got onto the makers website and figured out that I needed to go into the Live Wallpapers like I did before and go from there. Thanks again.

Kind of got one made. Had to use the download app mentioned in the thread, but i think it came out pretty well.

Wasnt really thinking about uploading. Got it done pretty quickly, and trying to make an interactive version if i have time. Might upload the file on xda once work settles down.

I'd like that wallpaper if you ever post it up.

For anyone interested in trying to make one yourself I found this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=720676&highlight=create+live+wallpaper
Looks like it would be fun to play around with. I haven't tried it yet myself though.

[Q] Crazy Battery Loss on CM9... help?

I recently updated my E4GT to CyanogenMod 9 alpha 5 and my battery has been dying insanely fast. I noticed immediate drops in battery % at random times, see attached image.

I dont know about all that I am on CM9 as well and I get the same life maybe a little less than I did on the gingerbread roms. I easily make it through a day with heavy use with battery life to spare. It must be a rouge app.

Hey if you are making it through the day then what the heck are you complaining about and with heavy use.... Come on man! Get Better Battery Stats and figure it out...
I thought you had real issues...lol

I know about the battery issues, but I have never seen a drop like in the screenshot I posted. I don't know if you looked at it, but I have not read of a reason for this to occur. It drops somewhere around 30% immediately

I solved the problem.
I have three batteries.

Sorry to bring up a dead topic but since these issues are still rampant and there is no "official" fix thread that I know of, I thought I'd post my findings and fixes that I have come acrossed (I take no credit for any of these methods) after taking these steps, my ics battery issues are gone.
Backup anything you don't want to lose.
Do a factory reset from the privacy settings.
Format internal SD AND external SD under storage settings.
Change wifi advanced setting "keep wifi on during sleep" to never.
Turn off display battery percentage under display settings.
That's it! One or more of these methods fixed my issues, I was having next to all of the problems people are having. Including the random massive battery drops mentioned in op.

Also your notification light and battery light could drain as well.

[Q] I need answer to my question.

Hi, I'm new to posting thread. So, I had battery drain problem and I was one of those people who is surfing through the internet trying to find solutions for battery drain problem on Note 4. Yesterday, I took out the cases and battery to clean out the dust. Later, when I put back the battery and turned on my phone, that's when the magic happened. My battery problem was fixed and I was surprised and now when my screen is off it takes about 1-2hrs or MORE to decrease %'s. When I use my phone constantly, it takes 5-9 mins for each % to decrease (WHICH never happened for me.) I charged my phone last night @ 11 PM (04/05/2015) and I still have 68% through moderate use. I still have 1 DAY and 22 hrs left on my battery according to my phone. (Screen time on: 1h 14m 16s). I'm very happy with my phone right now.
Here is my question: Can anyone give me explanation to this? How can just taking out the battery and put it back in can make huge difference?
NOTE: I'm not complaining; in fact, I'm really happy. I'm just curious and a lot of you smart people probably has the answer to my question.
Thank you for reading!

Is my question stupid or something? lmao

When you post to any forum, it's courteous to use an informative subject line. That way, others can tell at a glance whether your topic is one they're interested in learning about or sharing their knowledge of. The subject line you used conveys no information about your subject, so most readers will skip it entirely.

No lol. I literally read it and thought about it, and that picture was what I did. Lol
It's weird to me that pulling the battery would magically improve the battery life. To me, it's normally placebo effect, but if it fixed things, then it's just... odd to me.

Simplest answer; Because pulling the battery can clear some info being retained in memory somewhere. Or it may not have been discharging fast, but the %indicator was not functioning correctly and pulling the battery reset it. Pulling the battery is not exactly the same as a reset.

It's really odd to me as well and that's why I created this thread, which is for explanation. I checked my phone this morning and it said, I had 13 days left according to my phone (Which is freaking crazy and never happened to me in my life.)

[Apk][Share] Accu​Battery the best battery life monitor

In the name of GOD
Hello community!!
I found a battery monitor in the playstore. It is so good!! So I'd like to share with you people! It's called the Accubattery.

Battery life is probably the most common concern for smartphone users: some are finding it hard to get through a full day on a single charge, others find that after a year or so of use, their battery drains much faster than before, and the issues just keep lining up.
AccuBattery is a relatively new battery life monitor for Android devices (it supports the latest Samsung Galaxy S7s, Google Pixels, and so on) that focuses on accurate battery stats, but also on a research-based suggestion to avoid fully charging your battery.
AccuBattery allows you to set alarm that you actually charge your battery to 80%(Can be modified) and comes with clever tools to let you know when you've reached that level, so that you can unplug. This way, you can get the full 500 cycles(More than 1000, if you charge from 30 to 80 ) out of your battery, until you start to see a noticeable drop in battery life.
I still have my two year old Z2. It still holds battery like a new phone( with slight less capacity due to heat generated due to flashing roms). I used to charge my phone between 25%-80%.​

Thanks bro @Rajeev

Is there any way to allow comprehensive battery stats via console prompts? I can get the estimates, %/hr but not the mAH values. I am running Marshmallow 6.1 it is a ROM but I don’t think it’s custom bad I have a Samsung Galaxy S5 Neo. I am also rooted.

Anyone noticed an improvement after Feb 5 update?

Hello guys!
As we all know there been a new update for Pixel 2 XL few days ago and I don't know how many people know what's been updated so here is a pic:

and basically I wanted to ask you guys how has the improvement been for you? Have you noticed any better/worse things?
For me I noticed that Snapchat and Instagram has been taking alot of battery now where I just used 30m of Snapchat taking 17% battery and Instagram 57min taking 11%.
What do you guys think?

Don't see a difference for me. Camera is slightly better I've noticed. Other than that nothing else.
Question for you is where did you get that chart?

I also feel like it is draining faster... Also there is some more heat coming to the device? don't have any objective evidence though...

I can agree with draining but not with the heat honestly. Since I just do social media often.

I have seen a few reports that Android Auto started working for some users with the Feb update.
Can't say that I've noticed poor battery performance, but that's not to say that it isn't legit.
Overall, feels like the same device I had running the January image, nothing says WOW...

Actually for me, the battery has been better.

I think so Battery its better with the update on My pixel..

The biggest thing for me was the bluetooth connection in may car. I have an LG Watch sport connected to my phone all the time. Before the update, it was like the watch didn't want to let go of the phone, and it would not automatically connect to the car when I got in. I would have to go into the phone, and manually select the car to connect. Then I would have to wait a minute or more before I could play music or make a phone call or the car would tell me it was searching for a phone to connect to, even though the BT light was on indicating a device was connected. The first time I got in my car, after flashing the February update, after I started the car, my phone immediately connected to the car, and Android Auto fired up just like it is supposed to. I was able to listen to music, and make phone calls right away. It has happened like that ever since. I'm so very happy that it works like it's supposed to now. As for battery, it's still great. My 2 XL has always had killer battery life. I can go about a day and a half on one charge. A couple weeks ago, I took a Friday off from work, and was busy moving, so I didn't use my phone a whole lot. I took it off the charge on Friday morning about 8:00 am, and I didn't have to charge it until Sunday around lunch time.

Okay, I'll keep watching my battery... Maybe it was a random temporary decline... Your experiences sound good

When I do these updates, I usually clear the cache for Play services and Google services framework. Maybe it's the flashaholic side of me that always wants to clean flash everything...

Hmmm, I will try now from 100-20%~

Have you guys tried recalibrating the battery? Since a lot of these battery issues people complain about are right after updates. Haven't updated to Feb patch yet tho so I can't comment on battery life.

Just tried 100 to 3% and I would say its been better, Usually I barley came up to 6h and now its 6h and 44 min!
Here below is my apps:

I think battery is excellent, if it wasn't for Maps I know I can get more out of it:
