I'm running the stock ROM from Docomo, and since my phone is acting and working fine as-is, I really don't want to flash it if it's not necessary. Just igured I'd get that out of the way first.
My goal is to stop the notification that appears when "The battery is fully charged". I don't really care about the notification itself, but when it appears, unlike other notes, it turns the screen on.
That wouldn't even be much of a problem, except that I set my screen to -not- time out while it's charging, so I can use it at my desk without having it constantly time out on me.
So basically, every night while I'm asleep, my phone gets to 100%, the screen stays on, and just sits there on all night until I wake up and turn it off.
Is there any way to get rid of -just- that notification? I've tried various 'tweak' apps, but haven't found anything for it. Even battery mods just change the appearance and doesn't stop the notifications.
I really like my phone, I'm just worried about its life-span if the screen is on so much.
did you find a solution for that?
im having the same trouble!
but for some reason mine has a very loud and anoying alarm.
it's an actual alarm. not just a notficiation,
and everytime i sleep that anyoing sound wakes me up.
please anyone help iof you have an idea!
thanx!
Go to this folder system/media/audio/notifications and delete cloud.ogg or sherbet.ogg
One of those would be your battery full notification. Its cloud.ogg on mine.
No more sound!
That's not a good way to do it, as it sounds (I'm not 100% sure, but, let's say, 99%) like it's the sound for the "Cloud" ringtone (used for the default new SMS notification for example).
One way to do it safely would be to remove all the notifications sounds in the interface, via Settings > Sound > Notification ringtone (or something like that, translating from french ^^) and set it to a silent ringtone (in french it's "Discret", don't know how it is named in english).
Then you won't have any sound for your notifications globally. You can set them back independantly using some 3rd party apps, like, for example, ChompSMS for the SMS notifications (don't know if the basic SMS app can do it too, never used it).
But your screen will continue to stay on :/
Yea, the screen is the main problem, since my notify volume is always set low anyway and it doesn't wake me.
I have deleted cloud.ogg in mine and it does it for me. I have backed up the following folder /system/media.
So, in case things go wrong, u can download that folder and get those files again.
btw, u can put notifications to silent like Khoral said.
I don't really care about the sound or the vibrate, I just don't want it to turn my screen on and stay on all night.
All deleting cloud.ogg does is make it silent, the screen still comes on and stays on.
try deleting chargingwarning.qmg in the /system/media folder.
I could be wrong, but surely it seems like there's a better way to do this than deleting media files...?

Just upgraded to 6.1. I would like to keep the phone asleep when an alarm goes off, I only want a sound or vibrate notification. I'm pretty sure I had it set-up that way before the upgrade.
The problem is that the phone wakes up for a reminder and it will end up dialing a phone number or some other random thing before it goes back to sleep. This happens because I don't hear the alarm, it is still in the holster and movement pushes on the screen. This has happened several times.
Maybe I was using an app before that I need to put back on, I don't remember. This is very annoying and potentialy embarrasing.
Come to think of it, I want the phone to stay asleep no matter what, until I wake it up. I may have had a phone call that I missed and the movement caused the phone to redial. How can I keep the screen disabled until I push the wake-up button?
Thanks-
Diff
Edit:
This is the Tilt w/ ROM from HTC site
Lock your handset
I think locking the handset will solve your problem. I just tried it, I was able to dismiss the calendar reminder but other functions needed me to follow the unlock route. I assume this will work if you also get called.
Install S2U2.
Set it to lock on wakeup.
Thanks Proto, I'll try S2U2. It looks like it may work, and it is pretty cool too.
Although I would rather use a method with a smaller footprint. There has to be a registry hack that would simply keep the screen disabled until I activate it.
Anyone?
no wakeup on reminder without s2u2
I don't like s2u2 so that doesn't do it for me. I've searched a lot on the internet but I can't find a solution that prevents reminders waking up my phone (and after that being awake in my pocket )
Somewhere in the phone there must be a list of events that can wake up the phone? Somebody knows?
Is there any solution to this problem? Last time my phone woke because of a reminder and then it sent an new appointment to a collegue while moving around in my backpack. There has to be a RegKey or smth on this
So this app seems amazing! But I cant seem to get it to work right. I am assuming it will work like SPB phone suite where it can silence my phone and turn off all my data during certain hours and then turn everything back on after that time slot is over. It turns on properly and I love that part but it doesnt seem to turn off. Even after the time slot has ended I have to turn my ringer back up and turn on my BT and GPS. Is it supposed to turn those back on for me or am I missing something?

Check your "defaults". The need to be explicitly set otherwise it will not make changes when it doesn’t have an applicable situation.
Hahahaha, much better! Thank you!
locale
does anyone know how to disable a notification about profile change in Locale?
I want to turn the sound on at 6.30 in the morning but don't want to be waken up by the "ding" it makes when default profile is applied.
Remove Notifications from the list of settings for the situation
Got that already! I have to praise the locale support! sent them an email with this question and got the response back. There is also help section when you click menu within locale so i guess i should have read this first!
I misunderstood the notification feature - I thought it was refering to system global notifications like disabling globally vibration if new sms arrives etc.
So thumbs up to locale support! if only other companies were so helpful!
locale not working in background mode
I used power manager, but because i can't buy apps on the market (NL) so i want to try locale, everything is set, but i have to start the program and then it switches to battery / connected status... So if i plug in my phone i want locale will react immediately instead i have to start it (again and again) and when it's open in my foreground it works perfect. But when it's on background it doesn't work... Can't find settings for this... Any suggestions?
It wakes up everytime I get a text message and sometimes seems to wake up for no reason. This didn't always happen but I can't find and option to disable this.
Anyone know what I can do about it?
i dont think so it might be better to leave it alone.

On my phone, every time I receive a text message, the buttons light up for about half a second then starts to vibrate and play the ringtone. It's been doing that since the whole CnD thing and I've just ignored it since it didn't seem to be causing any issues.
You could go into the SMS app and shut off notifications from there. Might make a nice, powersaving script.
I don't know why the phone powers up without a notification. I have found I can't turn on my Wifi when I turn on Background data and it's been off for quite a while (still have autosync off). My data connection is showing heavy useage. The big G is watching us all. It makes me wonder if something is coming in to your phone from somewhere to wake it.
If it's killing you, you could try living without apps for a day you suspect might be doing it, or just schedule a kill at intervals if you can't uninstall it.
You could go into settings and change the screen timeout to 15 Sec so if it does come on, it wont stay on long..
I am not sure what is going on, but for whatever reason, certain features of the stock alarm app simply don't work. e.g the option for setting side keys to snooze does absolutely nothing! This is probably my biggest issue as the other could be written off as me doing crazy things in my tired waking up state. It has simply never functioned as it should for me. From the out of the box telco rom, to unbranded stock rom and now KA04.
The UI of the app is quite nice when setting alarms, but just terrible for actual alarms. I seem to dismiss them easily as-well :|. Somehow my partner is getting to the home-screen and opening other apps when trying to snooze (no idea how she is pulling that off though). Sonic Jump's title screen at max volume at 3 am is quite horrendous to the ears
I've set every possible setting to avoid the alarm just dismissing itself yet it's still a pretty frequent occurance.
So either, does anyone know a fix and/or are you experiencing this? OR can you recommend a really solid 3rd party replacement? I've had good experience with AlarmDroid in the past but recently on my GS2 it was having some compatibility issues. With an alarm you don't really wanna risk that it might not go off though lol.
I tried the timer once to boil eggs, it shut down as soon as I locked the screen for some reason. As soon as I unlocked the screen the timer resumed from where I'd locked the screen.
Downloaded Timer instead, it's always served me well.
Gentle Alarm is my alarm clock. Been using it for 2+ years now. love it. Love to be woken slowly by nature sounds.

I think the alarm app is buggy, agree the side button does nothing (code probably ported from another Experia and not checked) pretty poor
and when the alarm actually activates and I miss the screen slider to turn it off - when I activate the home screen and pull down the notification bar to turn off the alarm - it's not always there, the only way I can turn off the alarm is to turn off the phone

Lol well at least I'm not crazy then. You can never be sure who's fault it is that early in the morning .
no problems with alarm here except the early morning syndrome hitting the slider
I have a problem with the alarm. Say I've set up an alarm that is supposed to repeat every day of the week.
But every time I dismiss it when it goes off, it disables itself, so I have to enable it again manually in order to be woken up the next day.
does it work the same way for everybody?

I was late for work the other day because I snoozed the alarm and it didn't come back, at all!... Not Sony's fault, I had set max. number of background processes to 1, and when the lockscreen process starts, that means the launcher becomes the 1 background activity, and the clock gets bumped from memory.
Oops.

Any thoughts on how to keep the screen on forever like the LG V20 allowed me to? I realized that I never put my phone down, in my pocket, connected to a cradle, without turning the screen off first, so why should I use some low screen timeout number when I hate having it turn off on me when I don't need it to? Furthermore, I couldn't find a way to have my car dock setup keep the screen on without the use of an app on the LG, and I hate having a stupid notification on the bar to tell me "hey, we're doing something for you all the time, thanks for using this app!" if I don't have to. I'm trying to sell you on the idea, not sure why, but those are my reasons in case someone asks why I prefer it this way....
ANYWAYS, the maximum timeout is 10 mins on the Note8, and I couldn't find anything other than the setting in developer's options to keep screen on while charging (which, I'll have you know for those trying to suggest that one, dims the screen after a period of time - I don't know what that is, I just know I saw it do it once and turned that setting off because that's not what I need while using Google Maps and driving). Any thoughts on this, natively, within the phone's own settings somehow???

Just FYI, you can get rid of those "always running" notifications indefinitely by swiping the notification to the right and tapping "block notifications". It simply removes the card, and has no affect on the apps functionality.
Use Caffeine.
- Open it, give it the proper permissions (it will ask)
- Enable it
- Enable " Start at boot" and "Auto enable at boot"
- Close the app, open the notification panel, swipe right on the caffeine card and tap "block all notifications".
- As long as you don't go and change the display timeout settings in the actual settings app, your phone will never auto turn off, and can only be turned on/off manually just like normal.
And if app drawer clutter is something you want to get rid of, just hide the app icon.

I'm familiar with this method, even familiar with Caffeine, which I like more than any of the other junk ones in the Play Store, but I was hoping for something built-in that wouldn't require another running app to do something simple - Samsung / Android should have all the simple stuff figured out by now.... this was DEFINITIVELY the only thing the V20 had over the Note7 and now the Note8, I hated almost everything else about the phone but wasn't going backwards to the S7 when I had to turn the the Note7.
Thanks for your help, will use this solution until / unless someone has another (native, preferable) solution
Found the issue with using Caffeine as opposed to something native. Caffeine does a great job of keeping the screen in no matter what, any time it comes on. This also includes if the power state is changed, a missed call comes through, etc. It will turn on the screen, show you the lock screen, and just sit there.
The LG was capable of shutting the screen off after a short timeout when only on the lock screen, which would allow a notification or change in power from keeping the screen on indefinitely because it wasn't forcing ANY screen on input from doing it, only when unlocked, when it was appropriate to do so.
Any thoughts on how to fix this?
Be very careful. Unlike your LG v20 this phone has a AMOLED display. If you leave it on the same screen for a long time it will cause burn in on the display.
What ever happened to Screebl? I was going to recommend it to a friend, and couldn't find it any more... I guess it has just survived the port from phone to phone.

See signature - not my first AMOLED display phone.... When the screen is on for a long time, it's because I'm driving and using Maps and switching to Play Music, etc. I'm trying to avoid having the screen on all night long with it coming on when A) the phone gets fully charged, and B) when a notification or something wakes it because Caffeine is almost "too good" at what it does!
Hate that I had to use an app to do this, but I am really liking Screen Timeout that disables the timeout options Samsung gave us all together. Would love to know how to get this done, without the need for root, where I don't have to disable notifications for an app that constantly runs, though....
What it does, if anyone cares, is make none of the selections selected so the screen stays on ONLY when unlocked, exactly what I figured out I was looking for. I hope this helps someone else looking for a solution like this!
