Hi, just wanted to check whether is it normal for the Bluetooth to appear connecting to Pebble on notification bar even when your Pebble is not turned on or not with you?

Weird, but happened to me the last days...
I got a response from Pebble that we need to force close it.. Although it solved it, I felt that the app should be intelligent enough to close itself if no Pebble is connected after a predetermined time, say after 30 seconds.
The fastest way to do a force close is using the Notification bar, press and hold on the Pebble app, click on App info, click on Force close. Now you're done.

When using the phone with 'Stamina Mode' switched on I got the message that the phone was kept awake because of 'Devices'. I went into my Pwer Management > Battery Usage, and to my surprise Devices is at the top of the list, it has used 19% of my battery. It has a red icon (round circle) with a 'Movies' pictogram in it. The information about Devices is the following:
Code:
CPU Total: 12m 58s
CPU Foreground: 0s
Keep awake: 2h 33m 48s
Data sent: 2.98MB
Data received: 9.30MB
When I open Settings > Apps > Running and look for 'Devices' I find three services: DlnaDmsService, PushDerviceImpl and UpnpServiceCp. I also find the com.sonyericsson.dlna service. Does anyone know why dlna is running on my phone, even when I'm not connected to WiFi? What could be causing the wake? I do not have dlna enabled, and I think 'Devices' is a strange name for an Android process, especially with the Movies icon.
TL;DR:
What is Devices, why iis it running when I'm not on WiFi, and Can I disable it permanently?
Did you use throw or media share?

I have used throw once on a Bravia TV, but I have turned media sharing off after that. This was about a week ago, and I have rebooted the phone at least two times since. My bluetooth headset has been connected for about an hour, and when it connects it is in the 'Throw' list. But is this a reason for the phone to use CPU wake time when WiFi AND Bluetooth aren't even connected?
Noticed mine was doing the same since yesterday over 45% battery useage for Devices.
I did work out how to use Throw yesterday, cant seem to get it to stop now
Just done a power volume+ reset and see if it clears up
If you refresh batter stats - the "Devices" changes to com.sonyericsson.dlna for a fraction of a second
Yup this is what kills Stamina Mode if you use throw you're phone will be like this for a while. Even when you turn all the auto stuff off it will happen again when you next throw. Hopefully it will be fixed, if not then it settles down again after a day or two.

But does using a Bluetooth Stereo Headset qualify as 'using Throw'? Because it shouldn't have anything to do with dlna, right?
It has happened to me once when I've used Walkman but I haven't managed to replicate it, but Throw it has done it to me repeatedly.

Hmm... interesting. Thanks for sharing your insights! Tomorrow I'll disable the 'Devices' application and see what it means in terms of battery usage and loss of functionality. I'll report back at the end of the day.
Today I disabled Devices. Bluetooth worked as it should, and my battery is at about 56%. I guess it's okay if you don't use DLNA. Of course this is all subjective, but I do think that my battery is lasting a little bit longer. If you're not using throw I recommend disabling Devices. You can disable it in Settings > Apps > All > Devices > Disable.
Stop Throw
So, anyone knows how to totally stop Throw???
No matter what I try, I keep getting the Throw symbol in my status bar.
No and I would like to know this. Seems like when you load it once, you're stuck with it (unless you disable).

Nexus 5 and V700XXUBNA6 does not receive notifications even with 1.2.3 or with Samsung's notifications turned on. Why?
Thanks
You know the watch only receives notifications when phone screen is off?!

Yes I am aware of that. I can hear my phone get the notifications see thenotification light go off and nothing in the watch.
I got it kind of working on the phone but I see the notification on the gear but when I click view it just opens it on my phone.
Tried using any of the other atn versions?
Do you have notification access turned on in device settings?
I just got my phone today and I'm not sure if it's supposed to be like this or not but every time the phone boots up I get the notification pop-up reminder to keep all ports closed. Is this normal? For some reason I thought it was only showing if something was opened. I searched for "waterproof notification" but found nothing relevant.
Just click on the do not show this again button

Another idea: Uninstall smart connect.
How does that help?
Hi
I've been getting random vibrations from G watch R when it's sitting charging on the crade. Has anyone else come across this or know how to stop it.

My G Watch R didn't behave like this. Sure it vibrates when receiving notifications and when it is correctly connected to the crade.
Maybe your contacts are covered by something?
Found out from another source that LG Watch doesn't like charging from a USB Hub when hub is being used by another device.
At the the moment I am using a charging dock with my Sony Z Ultra and using the USB pass thru on that to power the watch dock.
I will try pluging the watch charging dock directly into the mains charger tonight and report the results tomorrow.

good to know!
Tried plugging it directly into mains charger. Never heard any vibrations all night. Looks like using a USB hub is going to be a no no.

This is by design and indicates when the watch connects/disconnects to/from the phone. When it connects to the phone, it vibrates once; when it disconnects, it vibrates twice.
If you reboot your phone, the watch will vibrate twice when the phone's Bluetooth turns off and once when it turns back on. Or when you leave the watch on the cradle and walk away from it with your phone far enough to lose the Bluetooth connection, it will vibrate twice to let you know it disconnected from the phone. When you get back within range, it will vibrate once to let you know it reconnected to the phone.

You posted this reply on another subject. I am pointing out that apart from disconnecting, loosing signal etc ( these are not random but as you point out these are by design) that there is another reason for random vibrations. Doing as I stated above cured it for me and several others on another forum.

Just scratch the metal contacts on the back of the watch with a pencil and issue resolved. The graphite of the pencil will help a lot.

Greetings all,
I have a new Note5 and overall I like it.
As you might expect I have been working feverishly to find up to date app solutions for my usage model and that will work on an unrooted device. I despise all that conspire to force this upon us! Anyway I have been testing loads of apps and somewhere along the way something has been set to vibrate to indicate something. It is happening at fairly random intervals and nothing shows on screen or in the pull down that accounts for it.
I have looked for events that are pending, past due, etc. I don't get many texts. So, it isn't that. I have even turned on airplane mode which should prevent any kind of updaes or pushes that might trigger an notice.I have checked all of the apps I am using and none are set to vibrate only. From the initial turn on of this phone I have run package disabler pro for Samsung. Using a basic list from this xda thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/guide-bloating-touchwizzing-note-5-t3184563. I have restarted the phone several times as well
Can anyone suggest some kind of system monitor/logging app that I can load that will allow me to find out which application is triggering this? Is there some other way I can find out what is triggering this event? I expect that a logging app will eat battery more but on a temp basis that would be ok.
Thanks all and here's to someone finding a way for us to root our notes without messing up our warranty and secure payment...

If you are talking about how it vibrates when you first pick it up for seemingly no reason, then that's a feature. It's to let you know you have notifications. It's called smart alert, you can disable it in the gestures menu.
vibrate (and sound) for 'no reason'
Thanks _MetalHead_
But no. This happens when it is sitting undisturbed. I will check and turn off that feature if it isnt already so it isnt adding to the confusion.
If I didnt say, I find no idication of active alarms or notifications.

Do you have any Bluetooth devices connected? I had a smart watch with my S5. Every time it connected or disconnected, the phone would vibrate. This was especially annoying when I left the watch in the bedroom while sitting in the living room with my phone. Every few minutes it would connect/disconnect and the phone would vibrate.

Not clear if this is contributing. Will turn BT off to be certain.
Actually, I think I can say for certain no. This has happened in airplane mode.
That is why I am looking for a system logging application or some equivalent method.

Hi, Go to settings and go to S Pen Option, and turn off all S Pen alerts, including power saver one.

Yeah, I re-read your OP, and noticed you said it was happening in airplane mode.
The S-Pen suggestion above seems worth pursuing.
Good luck!
I have the same problem. It would just randomly vibrate. I think is something to do with Google notifications.
