Package Disabler Pro

[maskedcarrot]

With vzw they just push it

Can't you just disable the firmware push service in PDP?

But i went back to package disabler pro , is still dis enabled for all the 165 apps after the system update

^^ this is exactly why I will likely NOT upgrade to MM right away. I LOVE package disabler as it really does work and enables my Note to get HUGE and MASSIVE gains in battery life.

Not sure what that has to do with M. There. Is nothing saying that M won't work with package disabler pro as of now.

Also M offers some features that might make package disabler pro unnecessary.

Every update is promoted for all the wonderful things it does... then the reviews tell you about all the things they screw up.

Actually on my Nexus 5 it is working perfectly and the idle of Doze is working great.

Please post a review about what M won't do.

This is my Nexus 5, not 5x but the older Nexus, on M using Doze. I used the WiFi for a couple of hours yesterday, it has been idle otherwise.

it doesn't but I'm not going to upgrade regardless until I know for sure.

I don't think AT&T will allow for it to block all it's bloat, or some that Samsung provides as easily. I'm fine with being wrong.

I just purchased this and looking into disabling some stuff I don't use to improve battery life.

I'm curious to know what software version everyone is running?

I'm trying to make sure whatever it is i'm doing will be stable with android 5.1.1

How is 'Package Disabler Pro', any better than simply disabling items via the Applications menu?

You get to dive deeper into the OS and disable More packages. Go to this thread. http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/guide-bloating-touchwizzing-note-5-t3184563

You can disable anything with it, things the phone won't let you disable.

I tried doing some of the bloatware(pink ones) and some apps that I dont use.

I ended up with 10% battery drain upon sleep.

What was draining your battery?

Samsung Galaxy Note 5 (32 gigs+white) running on T-Mobile.

 

[Kelly Kearns]

I don't disable all the pink, I find it runs my Android System and Android OS up and does get worse battery life.

 

[OldCookie]

I'm not sure what was draining my battery. Althought I kept wifi, location services, and sync on my phone. Lost around 1% per hour.

I just got Gsam installed but trying to figure out what all the numbers mean. Can anyone here help?

I'm hearing a lot of mixed stories from another thread regarding package disabler pro, which have you guys disable and are you guys sitll getting reliable idle, and SOT? I followed some, but not all of the basic package.

 

[Kelly Kearns]

I still have some stuff disabled just not everything it calls bloat.

I'm getting good battery time. This is the battery thread, it is long, posts aren't that long on it, you need to read this.

Is the app safe to use? If it can disable Knox and other more system level packages/processes, then seems like the app could have more access to other things like user data.

I see from the FAQ that the app does not have root access. Even so, how is it that an app can disable bloatware when natively we are only given limited disable or uninstall capability on Note 5s from carriers like Verizon?

I can't answer your question but PDP shuts them down without question. To be clear, it does NOT remove them (I'd pay BIG money for that) but it does shut them down and prevents them from restarting.

Does disabling apps make the battery last longer?
