Under the power options, I have the 'turn off device if not used for' options selected for both 'on battery power' and 'on external power'. I also have the backlight options to turn off the backlight if not used.
My question is: when connected via Activesync, should the device turn off (as per the settings above). It seems to activate the backlight feature, but not turn off (as per the setting).
Am I understanding this functionality wrongly? thanks.
Hi
My understanding is that when you connect to activesync then that is the same as external power. So, the external power settings apply to activesync (via USB).

Thanks Dave - in that case my power settings do not seem to be working correctly - ie: it does not turn off after 1 minute when connected via USB, however does operate correctly when not connected.
any ideas? thanks.

Hi Guys!
When my Diamond is connected to PC it is always ON. Only backlight is off after a while.
But I need the phone to go to sleep (not just backlight off) even if it's connected to PC and activesync.
In other words, I need the same phone behavior as such when it is charged from adapter and go to sleep after a period which is defined in power setings.
Can you help me what and where I need to setup?
Im running Froyo, rooted Amon-RA 1.7. I use the Power Manager app set with profiles. USB and AC adapters brightness is set high when plugged in and battery is set low for obvious reasons. Now when I plug in the brightness goes up and it displays i.e. AC adapter profile or whatever... when I unplug, it displays "battery profile set" but the brightness is all the way up still. I have to manually press the power strip brightness button until it is off, then open power manager app and select battery mode and then it works fine. From my knowledge the app has not been updated but it is working in every other department.
This is the only bug I have noticed for me. Just wondering if anyone has experienced this.
As the title says. Sometimes when fully charged it seems like my device is locked to the state 'Power AC' and doesn't detect that it actually isn't connected at all. Any other way to go about this than using the Power AC state? Thought about the ACTION_POWER_DISCONNECTED received intent, but that doesn't seem to be working at all.
Edit: I should probably add that I believe this to be an issue only if AC is unplugged while screen is off.
Assuming the screen is the problem, what would then be the best alternative? To turn and keep the screen on at 100% battery level or change some setting in Tasker? As for the screen on option I know of Secure Setting's "wake device" and I suppose the shell command "input keyevent 26" followed by Tasker's display timeout action would also work, but are there other ways?
Apparently it wasn't the screen.
Coming to think of it, is it possible that adb shell dumpsys commands may put the USB detection out of play? That would explain everything.
I use the Huawei power saving mode on my phone all the time, but I have to remember to disable it every now and again to allow account sync or remember to manually sync my accounts as power saver doesn't turn off when a charger is plugged in.
Is there any way to automate it so that when unplugged power saver is active but when charging it is disabled?
I'm thinking Tasker or something similar. Does anyone have any ideas on how to set this up?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Anyone?
I've managed to set up Tasker so it will enable/disable the native Android Oreo power saver mode on plug/unplug but this doesn't change the Huawei power saver that runs via phone manager (I think)
Also, enabling the native Android power saver turns the statusbar that ugly orange colour, so that was turned off immediately haha
Hi, I just bought the Mediacom SmartPad M-SP7HXAH Tablet with the programmable power on / off function.
I'd like to use this tablet in my car and
control the power on and off based on power connection (AC or usb).
Can Tasker interact with the On / Off timer function in the settings menu?
(Example:
if power AC connect - "timer on" = now!!!
If power Ac disconnect - "timer off"= now + 30 seconds).
thank you for your availability
