Help is juice defender safe?

Thanks.

I did reinstall it. Had me annoyed yesterday but I know there is a good app in there somewhere.

Right now it is set to manage mobile by schedule & wifi by location. Thats it. No root access. No 2g/3g/4g toggle. Everything else is defaults. Keeping it simple and may add one feature at a time to see what is making it disable 4g. It happened twice so it wasn't a random thing.

I agree. One thing at a time. Okay. Here is mine. I'll only put what I have enabled.



Aggressive option. Advanced option.

Controls tab- mobile data enabled. wife enabled. Options auto and wifi are enabled. auto sync enabled.

Schedules tab- schedule enabled. freq. 1h duration 1m. Controls default.

Triggers tab- battery enabled. batt. thresh-5%. Screen enabled. Options-ignore on low battery. Controls- custom, data and wifi enabled. Traffic enabled. Traffic thresh normal, 15s.




That's it. And this works perfect for me. Connectivity turns on and off with the screen usually with no lag when turning on so A LOT of battery is being saved when the battery is off.

Now I don't have a lot of things using background service to sync and what not, you might, so you might have to adjust a few things for that BUT everything should still work fine.

Good luck and let me know how it turns out. Maybe we can find out what the hell is wrong. ;)

Sounds very similar in setup. Auto disable is grayed out for me. Maybe because I selected wifi by location. I didn't select wifi preferred. It turns on wifi anyway when I am at a known router. For scheduling I used the default 15 minutes. I kinda need a few apps to have frequent access (gmail & groupme). I know I had a more complicated setup before when 4g got disabled but I don't recall the settings. This setup seems to be working fine so far.

Btw, green power didn't turn off my data at all best I could tell. Every time I turned on the screen data was already on. Location based wifi worked tho.

With the free version it seemed like turning data on and off was sketchy. I didn't like it. But when I bought Ultimate it was boss. Turning the data off when your screen is off is what really saves the most battery. If you start downloading something it will wait until it's done to cut connectivity off.

I just wander if it has something to do with the wifi settings that's messing up your 4G. I don't use wifi hardly so I turn off all the settings.
 
I personally didn't like juice defender. it wasn't a difference in my battery life but the best one so far that I like is power max app my lasted all day for 16 hrs with me being on the intetnet
