## Overview

Frosty optimizes battery life by selectively freezing Google Mobile Services (GMS) components and applying system-wide doze enhancements. Configure everything through the WebUI after installation.

## ✨ Features

- **GMS Freezing**: Disable GMS services across 8 categories with granular control

- **GMS Doze**: Remove GMS from power-save whitelists so Android can optimize it

- **Deep Doze**: Aggressive background restrictions for all apps (Moderate/Maximum)

- **Kernel Tweaks**: Scheduler, VM, network, and debug optimizations

- **RAM Optimizer**: Tunes process limits and sysfs memory settings

- **Log Killing**: Stop battery-draining log/debug processes

- **System Props**: Disable debug properties to save RAM and battery

- **Battery Saver Tuner**: Customize what Android's battery saver mode does, control backup deferral, sensor disabling, GPS behavior, data saver, and more. They only have visible effect when Android battery saver is ON

- **Live Configuration**: Full control via WebUI with real-time toggles

## 📦 Installation

**Requirements:** Android 9+, Magisk 20.4+ / KernelSU / APatch, Google Play Services

1. Download from [Releases](https://github.com/Drsexo/Frosty/releases)

2. Install via your root manager

3. Reboot

4. Open WebUI to enable features — everything starts **OFF** by default

> [!NOTE]

> Magisk users can use [WebUI-X](https://github.com/MMRLApp/WebUI-X-Portable/releases) to access the WebUI.

## 📖 Usage

Open the WebUI from your root manager. You'll find:

- **System Tweaks** — toggle kernel tweaks, system props, blur disable, log killing

- **GMS Doze / Deep Doze** — configure doze aggressiveness

- **GMS Categories** — freeze individual GMS service groups

- **Whitelist Editor** — protect apps from Deep Doze

- **Import / Export** — back up and restore your configuration

## 🧊 GMS Categories

#### Safe to Disable

| Category | Impact |

|----------|--------|

| 📊 **Telemetry** | None. Stops ads, analytics, tracking. |

| 🔄 **Background** | Auto-updates may be delayed. |

#### May Break Features

| Category | What Breaks |

|----------|-------------|

| 📍 **Location** | Maps, navigation, Find My Device, location sharing |

| 📡 **Connectivity** | Chromecast, Quick Share, Fast Pair |

| ☁️ **Cloud** | Google Sign-in, Autofill, passwords, backup |

| 💳 **Payments** | Google Pay, NFC tap-to-pay |

| ⌚ **Wearables** | Wear OS, Google Fit, fitness tracking |

| 🎮 **Games** | Play Games achievements, leaderboards, cloud saves |

## 🔋 Deep Doze Levels

| Feature | Moderate | Maximum |

|---------|:--------:|:-------:|

| Aggressive Doze Constants | ✅ | ✅ |

| App Standby Buckets | ✅ | ✅ |

| Screen-off Deep Idle | ✅ | ✅ |

| Deny WAKE_LOCK | ❌ | ✅ |

| Wakelock Killer | ❌ | ✅ |

## 🚀 RAM Optimizer

Tunes Android's process manager and memory subsystem based on your device's total RAM.  

Also enables the USAP pool for faster cold app launches and applies sysfs tweaks (`swappiness`, `page-cluster`). All values are backed up and fully restored on disable.

## ⚙️ Battery Saver Tuner

Configures what Android's built-in battery saver mode does when active. 

| Option | Description |

|--------|-------------|

| **Data Saver** | Restrict background data for most apps |

| **Sound Trigger** | Disable hotword detection (e.g. "Hey Google") |

| **Full Backup** | Defer full device backups |

| **Key/Value Backup** | Defer key-value backups |

| **Force Standby** | Put all background apps in standby immediately |

| **Background Check** | Enforce stricter background process checks |

| **Sensors** | Disable optional sensors in background |

| **GPS Mode** | Control location access when battery saver is active |

## ❓ FAQ

**Q: Why are my notifications delayed?**  

A: GMS Doze and Deep Doze restrict background activity. Add your messaging apps to the whitelist.

**Q: Does this work without Google Play Services?**  

A: Kernel Tweaks, System Props, Blur Disable, Log Killing, and Deep Doze will work. GMS features require GMS.

## 📝 Doze Whitelist

Edit via WebUI or directly at `/data/adb/modules/Frosty/config/doze_whitelist.txt`.  

Add messaging, banking, and alarm apps to prevent missed notifications.
