Power Saving

How to Change the Sleep-Mode Interval
Sleep mode conserves power by turning off the display after a period of inactivity. Sleep mode also activates the screen
lock security, if any. For more information, see
1. Go to Settings > Device > Display.
2. Tap Sleep. The Sleep control panel opens.
3. Tap the interval of time that you want the display to remain on when there is no
activity. At the end of this interval, your device automatically enters sleep mode.
How to Manage Processor Performance
1. Go to Settings > SHIELD Power Control.
2. Tap Processor. The Processor status screen opens. This screen shows the selected
power saving mode, the cores allowed by the mode, and whether a frequency
limit is enabled.
3. In the System section, tap Processor Mode. The Processor Mode control panel
opens.
4. Tap a processor mode.
 Max Performance. This mode provides maximum processor
performance. This option drains the battery faster than the other
options.
 Optimized. This mode provides a balance between performance
and saving power.
 Battery Saving. This mode conserves power by limiting the
number of processor cores and setting a frequency limit.
 My Power Mode. This mode provides the option to create your
own power mode. Select the number of cores, core frequency,
and frame-rate limit.
How to Reduce Background App Power Usage
Some apps use power even when your device is not in use. For example, a weather app might download information
every 30 minutes even when the app is closed. You can conserve battery power by reducing app activity for apps you do
not use often.
1. Go to Settings > SHIELD Power Control.
2. Tap the Apps tab.
3. In the list of apps, tap Change to enable or disable the parameters that affect
performance and power consumption.
