Root Snapdragon BatteryGuru apk

[Andrew Fisher]

Here's the Snapdragon BatteryGuru apk if anyone wants it. I'm running it on cm12 and it seems to be working fine. It's not available in the Play store if you have a Lollipop ROM. That last sentence sounds so silly... Is Google just making fun of us at this point?
Anyway enjoy.

Update: here's a newer version, thanks to bg4m3r.

Another work around could be to install xposed framework and enable the playstore fix to allow all apps?

Had no idea that fix existed, thank you!

I've had trouble getting Xposed to play nicely with cm12 but then I've had trouble with cm12 on it's own so maybe I'm doing something wrong! If I ever get Xposed to work this module(?) will be super useful.

Yeah, there are so many modules, it seems like only 10 percent or so are applicable to our ROM when on Lollipop. I like using the Youtube ad blocker, the status bar icon changer (android theme engine) and I use it to stop my phone from turning on the screen when I plug in or unplug the power source. There might be settings for that somewhere in the ROM itself though, haven't dug too deep yet.

Just wanted to say thanks for posting this. Xposed isn't working on 5.1 yet and won't be for a while.

Thank you, but fyi as jothe 1 mentioned there is an alpha version of xposed for 5.1 here. Testing it now, I'm not sure if it works yet.

It is but I keep getting bootloop when I install the xposed installer apk.it let's me flash the zip but that's it so it probably not working yet.

*edit I installed the apk first then booted to recovery and flashed the zip no boot loop we'll see if it works

I had not seen that, good to know. I'm back on KitKat again though.

 

[bg4m3r]

This is odd... I had to reinstall zv5, which now installed a new batch of bloat apps and also BatteryGuru now says it's incompatible. Glad you posted this here!

Found an entry for this on apkmirror. There's a new version, if anyone is interested.

Thanks, I'll update the original post.

The nice thing is that if you use Pushbullet, you can get notifications when they post updates.

I've encountered an issue with the newer version. When managing Wi-Fi, it causes it to lockup completely, requiring a reboot to fix. As I recall, I had this issue with the old version too. I thought it was a conflict between it and the connection manager, but I don't have connection manager installed now. The real problem here, however, is it won't let me disable Wi-Fi management. I've reverted back to the older version because it didn't exhibit this issue. Maybe it will get fixed in an update.

What happened to the attachment?

Yeah, it wasn't downloading through the app for some reason
