I saw some modifications of display drivers in internet. What are those drivers doing? I use phone as phone and photocamera. And it wiil be nice to have long live of battery; long time without recharging. For that purpose choose dark themes.
Which display driver can help me make display more darker or something else for long battery waiting time? |

Chosing dark themes has nothing to do with battery life. To save some battery you can:
- reduce the brightness of the display (in settings)
- turn of searching for 3g networks if 3g is not available...

I did it. Also choose simple theme without animation. Why you think that dark theme useless? My theme has most black colors so display spend less energy. |

Even if there is some difference in batery life when using dark themes, it would go unnoticed. I don't think that it can improve the batery stand by time dramatically.

You can test: set light theme and use phone until it shutdown. Then recharge phone and set dark theme. The difference will be 4-5 days. |
