Quick Memo

[Jeremiah Bonds]

Are you using it, if not how's your battery.

I would like to know if there's a difference in battery life between those who have Quick Memo installed and those who don't. It's been said that it's causing a subtle drain on the G6, not a wide known issue by any stretch of the imagination.

I have it on my custom software buttons but I wouldn't say it's draining the battery though.

I wouldn't have either, but apparently it was in Android OS.. not sure how anyone realized this for the G6. That's good if it doesn't on the V20. But I was getting around 3.5 to 4 SOT, and I installed greenify. (i know...) and set that to hibernate and literally did nothing else today, and I had 2 hours of SOT by 70%. Using the battery the same. Did more phone calls today as well. It's interesting.

This was yesterday.. I keep forgetting to take a screen shot.. This was with about 45 minutes using GPS via Waze.. It's impressive.. I wonder how far I would have gotten if I didn't use GPS?

It's been on the phone since I've owned it.... Are you sure it drains the battery?
I never use it

Same here, I never thought about it until I read it on XDA.. It might just be a G6 thing.

How do you get rid of it.... Won't let me disable it

Some variants, they come pre-installed. You can force stop it though. If you never use it, it shouldn't reopen.

I had a weird battery drain last night but I still used it without plugging it in and got 4.5 hours of SOT... Starting at the 75 percent.

Was the V20 nearby..... It may have sucked the life out of the G6 battery in a moment of sheer jealousy

Not to continue to beat a dead horse, but maybe try this? I got 24.5 hours uptime and 7+ hours of SOT yesterday.. That's nearly the amount of battery I was getting with my extended one. I also stopped using a few apps that kept my phone from sleeping..

Can't do it on Verizon

What apps did you stop?

What apps did you stop?

I noticed GSAM reporting my OS was high and I saw that it was chrome (which there was a chrome drain on my V20)

dang.. are you opposed to hibernating it?

I don't like apps that take control over the way my apps behave.
