Some device on your network is waking the Note through the wifi. Try sniffing the traffic to find out which and why.

Thank you.
What app do you advise me for the sniffing thing?

go to settings settings>privacy and see if both boxes are unchecked. it does backup of stuff into google server. we don't need that really.

I understand it wastes battery, but my problem isn't related to that because it's ON since day one and i only experienced this drain 2 days ago..
Just reseted the phone and installed apps again it fixes the problem!

Your top three wakelocks are all WiFi related - svnet, wlan_rx_wake and wlan_wake.
Your fourth is sec-battery-monitor - some kind of battery monitor/saver app?
There were lots of cases of people reporting battery app savers/monitors/whatever actually causing notable battery drains, particularly if users don't set their sync policy right.
Let me give you an example: let's say you use some battery saver, and set it to disconnect WiFi when screen locks. Let's also say that you have some app configured to sync at all times. The app tries to connect, but can't, because the battery saver won't allow WiFi connection to be established, so the app tries to sync again and again and again....
And your phone can't get to deep sleep, hence the high battery drain.
Hope this helps.

Dial *#9900# then disable "fast dormancy" and press close.
Monitor your drain over a day and see if its better...

anjath, do you have Scott Adams' permission to reproduce that comic strip of his? I would not post it in your sig if you do not. It would be a breach of copyright, as well as being quite rude.

Notifiction LED

I have read up alot of people is having the LED issue. I am also having that so my question is does anyone know of a good notification app or widget that they are using?

What issue do you have?
Did it suddenly stop working? I had an the issue when I first got the XZ because I had the "Automatic Resotre" enabled.

It never worked I did the whole reset without automatic update and still no luck. Hopefully Sony will have a fix for it.
In the mean time I am looking for a alternative notification led app.

The notification LED of my device only works with charging and when the battery is low.

Not talking about automatic update. I'm talking about automatic restore. Mine works after unticking automatic restore.

I also did your steps right now and still no luck.

It works :laugh: but had to turn stamina mode off. Unless it's charging then you can have stamina mode on.

Led Notifications not working

As the title says my Note does not turn the Led on for notifications, I already check the setting is turned on, I tested it with *#0*# it works there, but not for any notification, any ideas?

I would toggle the switch and reset, otherwise no clue, it works fine on mine. Is it working for charging, fully charged? Wasn't there another setting for colors? I'm confused myself, so many settings.

I tried all that, even did a factory reset but is not working for me. :crying:

The only other thing I can think of is power savings... hopefully. Does it turn on when you charge the phone?

Yes it does turn on when charging the phone, I checked power saving settings but they were turned off.

Check this in settings -> display?

I would try a 3rd party app that lets you customize the led lights see if that works. And if it doesn't work I'd get a new one. That's no fun. I'm sorry.

Thanks for all your suggestions what finally worked for me in addition to having the led notification on I had to turn Notification reminder on as well otherwise it just doesn't work, not sure if that's the case for you guys but well at least I have it working now.

I was just going to suggest double checking notification reminder, I think its set per application, besides global, but I'm surprised factory reset didn't work, unless you switch it off manually in both cases.

No visual notifications on lock screen.

I have a strange problem. I don't have visual notification on my Note 9 when screen is off...I got only sound notification... Anyone have idea? I would appreciate any help....
Ps. "always on display " is Off.

If you go to settings and then applications, and then check notification settings in each app you want to get notifications from on lock screen and make sure you have selected the "show content"option in notification settings of each app.

Then check settings, lock screen, notifications, show or hide content.

it's on. I got sms notification on locked screen when screen is off. It appears that Viber, WhatsApp and Gmail application, are having problem to show me a notification when the screen is off and locked... done some searching in applications settings everything seems to be in order... I give up... maybe I should update, because I'm on stock ROM.. I usually don't do updates because I'm afraid of battery leaking and other problems that Samsung is providing us in the last couple of years...

I think I've read that some apps don't support screen edge.
