How It Went

A complete ADB optimization session — connected, audited, and tuned step by step.

14:52 — STEP 1
Connected via Wireless ADB
Device ZY32LSZZWV confirmed connected. Switched to TCP/IP mode for wireless ADB — cable-free for the rest of the session.
adb tcpip 5555 && adb connect 192.168.68.50:5555 → ✓ connected
14:53 — STEP 2
Full Device Audit
Full device profile: Android 15, 3.7GB RAM, only ~1GB free. Animations at 1.0x. Gmail (283MB), Digital Wellbeing (274MB), WhatsApp (253MB) as top RAM hogs.
adb shell ps -A --sort -RSS | head -20
14:55 — STEP 3
Animations Halved
Reduced window, transition, and animator scales from 1.0x to 0.5x. Immediate noticeable snappiness — biggest single UX win in the session.
settings put global window_animation_scale 0.5
14:56 — STEP 4
First Debloat Wave
Disabled Digital Wellbeing, Motorola Weather Widget, com.dti.motorola, Google TTS, and Google Quick Search Box. ~900MB freed.
pm disable-user --user 0 com.google.android.apps.wellbeing (×5 packages)
14:57 — STEP 5
Deep Bloatware Scan
Found Facebook silently running in background (3 services). Samsung apps on a Motorola device. Pixel-specific Google apps with no reason to exist.
pm list packages -s | grep -E "facebook|samsung|motorola"
14:59 — STEP 6
Second Debloat Wave
Disabled 15 more packages. Uninstalled Play Games and Gemini/Bard. Applied GPU OpenGL rendering and background process limit of 4.
pm disable-user --user 0 (×15 packages) + system tweaks
15:07 — STEP 7
Reboot Complete — RAM +750MB
RAM available jumped from 1.0GB to 1.75GB. Reconnected via wireless ADB. Spotted Taboola (adware, 124MB) and Android System Intelligence (134MB).
MemAvailable: 1752756 kB (was 1036236 kB)
15:08 — STEP 8
Taboola & Android.AS Killed
Uninstalled Taboola (pre-installed Motorola adware) and Android System Intelligence. Also discovered Fitbit was running 3m42s of Bluetooth scan in just 7 minutes uptime.
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.taboola.ody && com.google.android.as
15:12 — STEP 9
Battery Deep Dive
Applied aggressive Doze mode, Wi-Fi sleep, 1-min screen timeout, background restrictions for LinkedIn/Amazon/AliExpress/Duolingo/Spotify/Photos. Hotword detection disabled.
settings put global device_idle_constants inactive_to=30000,...
15:13 — STEP 10
Fitbit Eliminated
Fitbit was the #1 battery killer — constant Bluetooth scanning. Uninstalled completely along with 12 more system services (TalkBack, Android Auto, PrintService, etc.).
pm uninstall -k --user 0 com.fitbit.FitbitMobile → Success
15:18 — FINAL
Final Reboot — Clean Boot
Second reboot to lock in all battery settings. This time booted cleanly and fast. Session complete.
adb shell reboot → ✓ clean boot

// system tuning

9 System Tweaks Applied

Deep system settings that Android doesn't expose in the UI — accessible only via ADB.

⚡
Animation Speed 0.5×
Window, transition, and animator scales halved. The single biggest perceived speed improvement.
1.0× → 0.5×
🔄
Background Process Limit
Android will now aggressively kill background apps beyond 4. Prevents RAM thrashing.
Unlimited → Max 4
🎮
GPU OpenGL Rendering
Forced hardware GPU rendering via debug.hwui.renderer for smoother UI compositing.
Default → OpenGL
💤
Aggressive Doze Mode
Reduced idle timeout to 30s, disabled sensing/locating delays. Deep sleep kicks in much faster.
inactive_to 30000ms
📡
Wi-Fi Sleep on Screen Off
Wi-Fi radio sleeps when the screen turns off. Push notifications wake it as needed.
wifi_sleep_policy → 0
🌑
Screen Timeout 1 Min
Reduced from 2 minutes to 1 minute. Screen-on is the biggest battery drain on any phone.
120s → 60s
🚫
Background Restrictions
RUN_ANY_IN_BACKGROUND denied for LinkedIn, Amazon, AliExpress, Booking, Duolingo, Spotify, Photos.
7 heavy apps restricted
🎤
Hotword Detection Off
Always-on microphone listening for "Hey Google" disabled. Saves CPU and battery continuously.
hotword_detection → 0
📍
Location Throttle
Background location update minimum interval increased to 2 seconds to reduce GPS/network wakeups.
throttle → 2000ms
