[App] ForceDoze - Force Doze mode after screen off, disable motion sensors, etc

Hi all,

ForceDoze allows you to forcefully enable Doze right after you turn off your screen, and on top of that, it also disables motion sensors so Doze stays active even if your device is not stationary while screen off. Doze will only deactivate periodically to execute maintenance jobs (like getting notifications, etc), otherwise it will remain fully active as long as your screen is off. This brings a lot more battery savings than standard Doze functionality, because even with screen off and Doze enabled, Doze is still periodically checking for movement, and disabling motion sensing improves battery life further.

Features:
  • Force enable Doze right after screen off
  • Disable motion sensors so Doze doesn't periodically poll the sensors to check if the device is stationary or not. This provides an additional boost to battery life
  • Whitelist apps so they don't get suspended or disabled when Doze mode is active
  • Whitelist an app from sensorservice: ForceDoze disables motion sensing, so when Doze mode is active, apps can't access motion sensors, but there is a possibility for one app to be whitelisted. The one app part is a sensorservice restriction, so nothing I can do about it. If you want to keep motion sensing on for all apps, turn on Enable Motion Sensing in app settings
  • Doze battery stats: Shows you all the times your device has entered/exited Doze mode, and how much battery was available during those times. It will only work when ForceDoze service is turned on.
  • Enable Doze mode on your device if your device OEM has disabled it (experimental)
  • No-root mode so you can use this app without root privileges (Requires you to execute an ADB command from your PC to grant it the android.permission.DUMP permission, instructions inside app and app description on Play Store)

Force Doze is a free & open-source app, so you can grab the app and the source code from:

Play Store: http://ift.tt/1TRIpWq
Github: http://ift.tt/1rWigwm
Latest APK: http://ift.tt/1UW2FbL

Please let me know if you spot any bugs or unwanted behavior, or would like me to add more features to the app!
