[Q] How do I disable LED in dock, or at night? - Xperia Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I use the dock at night, so they mean the same to me. The point is I have the phone on my nightstand, and I don't want it to shine into my eyes.

I would advise you not to charge the battery over night. 2/3hours of charging is enough charging it longer is only bad for your battery.

Right, but I can't really set the alarm for three in the morning just to take it out of the charger.

Don't worry about charging it overnight, it won't cause any harm, and if it does, it's their fault, and hey should fix it.

When the battery reach 100% the charging process will stop to protect the battery,and when the level go down to 90% it will start to charge again.

I would like to know also but without the smart*** replies

Enable stamina mode and don't whitelist anything? Only notification then would be missed calls and SMS.

That doesn't work as stamina mode gets switched off whilst charging

If you don't mind flashing CM ROM there's an option to turn it off, change the color at certain level of charge, etc.

Maybe you can disable the LED while charging with LightFlow?

I wonder if there is an option in the build prop?
So far I have managed to get the NFC icon working by editing the build prop...

Phone won't turn on!

So my phone was working normally as It should when all of a sudden it turned off.
There's this icon in the status bar next to the time that shows a percentage of how much life my phone has left I think.
But then it started flashing red with an x inside at 2% I got so scared! Then it happened, my phone turned off. What do I do now?):

Are you serious with this question?
From what you say here I can understand that your battery went empty and your phone turned itself off. Which is perfectly normal..
Off course it won't turn on again if the battery is empty.
Maybe try to charge the phone?
Edit:
If that doesn't work, remove the battery for a while (1 minute) or try to turn on the phone while in the charger but without battery.

Your phone have the devil inside.

[Q] hot phone, not charging

Hey guys need some advice here. My one just recently hit 120F the other day and now that's a norm when charging. (screen off charging) Also, it will not charge even overnight, after about 6 hours the battery went from ~14% to 64% and the led was blinking red, battery indicator did not show that it was charging.
What can I do on my end? I know I'll probably have to get it replaced but I just wanted to know if there's anything else that will fix it.
Thank you

Try charging with the phone powered off. I know this might help cuz you need your phone on but it's the only option. After that send it back.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
Blinking red while charging means the phone is too hot to charge. Wait until it cools down and try again.
You can also try a "battery pull" by holding down the power button while the phone is on until the capacitive button lights start blinking and keep holding it until it turns off. Temp sensor might be stuck.
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Yeah ill try doing it powered off. It's weird cuz that's how I always charge it, but hey its hitting 100F ambient temp here so maybe that's it. My phone also gets super hot when watching a video and can drain a full battery in about 1:30 hours
Sent from my ViperOne
Might try a battery stats app and see if something is running away on you. I occasionally use opera browser and found it would kill my battery really fast with the screen off if I didn't actually exit out of it - can't ever leave it in the background. Maybe you have something similar...

AT&T HTC One lost 40% battery when it was OFF.

Had around 67% when I went to sleep. Forgot my charger at home as I was at my girlfriends, so I turned off the phone. I woke up this morning to see my battery at 23%! And while writing this post, I accidently turned it off again and now my battery is at 8%
Whats going on!?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Umh, you have the fastboot active?
And, the phone was hot?
Possibly android was reporting the wrong battery status when you turned it off. Charge your device to 100 percent then turn it off and on again without the charger plugged in. If it reads below 100 charge it again until it's full.

Thanks for the help guys. I guess it was fast boot... I tried it the other night and only lost 3%. At least it wasn't my battery

Because the fastboot is like the "sospension" of windows.
The OS is running in background with all the app open and all the service...

Just curious, were you not at home? If you were home, why would you not just put it on the charger? I've always thought this was odd, especially when people complain about a phone not lasting 3 days. They have access to a charger, but they don't use it. I put my phone on the charger every night when i go to bed so it's always fully charged in the morning.
Again, just curious as it's your phone so i really don't care what you do. lol

Less charge cycles on the battery? Data disables? Maybe he was charging his phone and/or he just leaves the option on unless he needs the other features of a smartphone.

I noticed this the other day. Just to be safe I added the Clock app to the list of allowed apps, and it still didn't buzz.
Many years ago when I bought my first "smart" phone, I turned my old Sony Erickson phone off and put it on the shelf. The next morning it turned itself back on to ring the alarm, so I wouldn't miss my appointment. That sweet thing was way ahead of its time , and it wasn't even supposed to be "smart."
I can confirm the alarm does go off and sounds off while your phone is in UPSM. every night I go to sleep wether it's charging or not I turn on UPSM and every day my alarm wakes me up, and when I wake up before it it'll still go off. So may e it's the way u set up ur alarm that caused the problem. Hell, I can even use the facebook app while in UPSM. Good luck man.

If you want to know why, it's not good practice to leave your phone in the charger for many reasons. Some maybe superstitious to others and not to many.
I just wanted to put it in the mode to try it overnight since it only drains a single percent like in 8 hours.
Lastly, I'm not the type of person that complains about battery anyways.

This 2% per 5 mins is when the phone is in standby mode ?
then there is some crap that is eating all your battery.
have a look at the battery usage and see what is using the battery most, in my case it's exchange service -- i cant do anything there because i use email app to get my office emails.
please reply with the app that is using most battery.

Looks like your battery is dead. This phone is the most power-effective phone I owned since Motorola Defy+, it can hold any abuse and still has juice at the end of the day.

And then you've either installed some app that keeps your phone constantly awake, or killed the battery immediately by discharging it to 0. That's the only 2 explanations.
Right now I'm 17h on battery at 50% remaining, and screen as the top discharge reason with 32%. My father, who doesn't use the same phone extensively, routinely charges it once in 2 days. You should have screwed up something really bad to cause this phone not to hold charge.

Could be killed battery. This app won't do anything bad, I believe.
Might also be something reception-related, but I'm not sure if the reception is good/bad or if your carrier does/doesn't support fast dormancy and to what degree does it affect the phone.
