wake up screen on notifications - Nokia 8 Questions & Answers

My Nokia 8 doesn't have the wake up on notifications, maybe I have to enable something that I miss?

No, it's normal.
You can download some apps in the playstore that will solve the problem, however I never find one that doesn't drain the battery.
I use whatsapp + textra SMS , and both apps allow the screen to wake up when notifs comes in. And the battery doesn't suffer.

Textra sms is an app?
But which app do you use for the wake up?

Textra is an SMS app. And you have the option to ask the screen to wake up each time you receive a notification.

I just use Glimpse Notifications. It works perfectly and I've never noticed any significant battery drain.

Nexus One never sleeping

I have tried searching the forums but have found nothing yet, so I was hoping someone could help me. I am currently using Enomther's rom, but this has happened on every rom I've tried (Desire, Cyan, etc.). My problem is the Nexus One is running 100% of the time. In comparison, the screen was on for 5.2% of the time. And I have definitely noticed the battery. Even if in standby, it loses 10-20% battery an hour. By the time I make it home from school, I have about 20% battery left, with almost no usage whatsoever. I've checked to see if it's any apps that won't close, but my highest used app was only a few minutes according to spare parts. Cpu usuage is barely visible as well in spare parts.

Looks like an application is holding the wake lock. Instant Messengers are good candidates for draining the battery. In my experience, Meebo loses connection frequently, and eBuddy has a mode to keep the connection, but it drains the battery very fast (AFAIR it has a mode that's easier on the battery by checking for messages every 15 minutes, but that's not all that instant anymore).
Good job you have AnyCut installed.
Use it to place a shortcut to the 'Testing' app (or dial *#*#4636#*#*), and use that to look at your battery history.
This will be able to confirim if your N1 is indeed staying awake, and if you use the 'partial wake usage' drop down box, it will tell you what's keeping it that way.
For partial wake usage, the only thing that pops out Android System which has a full bar. Nothing else is above a sliver.
Since you have titanium backup, why not make a backup, completely wipe your phone, and see if the problem persists? Then, add components at a time and see when the problem reappears. ie ROM -> a few apps -> a few apps -> etc. This will narrow down your search and hopefully pinpoint the problem.
You also might wanna look at logcat (e.g. via aLogCat), sometimes there are a lot of messages of runaway applications.
Here's my logcat

No spare parts?
Downlaod it and try setting the end button behavious to go to sleep.
Seems like an obvious thing, but its worth a shot if you haven't already tried it.

Yep, of course I have spare parts. I set that, but what exactly is the end button?
Edit* I've uninstalled every app on my phone, and yet the problem still persists. Running 100% of the time. What the heck is wrong with my phone?

I think your best bet us to just wipe everything, and reinstall the rom. That should get things going smoothly.
do you have trackball succession mod? that may be the reason.

No, but I did have trackball wake enabled. Would that matter? Also, I've installed Cyan and the problem seems to be gone, although battery still isn't great :/
I would figure that trackball wake will keep waking your phone when you accidentally hit the trackball when the phone is in your pocket or bags?

One thing to check that I've run in to twice (unfortunately) is constant "syncing" of email. I only noticed it because the email app constantly showed the syncing circle (not in the notification bar, in the app). Clearning the storage/settings for email cleared it up, but it took a few days to find out what was causing it to never sleep.

Yes but my phones running 100% of the time and my screens running 1/20 of that time. Surely my screen on time would increase as well? As well I'm sitting in class half the day and know for sure that I'm not hitting the trackball.

Thanks, I'm going to look into this. Would this correspond to UID 10014 or Media having extremely high network usage as well? I just noticed these two things constantly have full network usage bars but don't know exactly what either are. How would I clear the settings/storage? I'm using a Desire Rom now if it matters.

[APP] LG O2X Touch LED Notifications

I've been using Martin Börjesson's LED Notifications app for a while and you can now find it on the market!
"LG O2X Touch LED Notifications"
By Martin Börjesson
I found it's light on battery. And you can simply disable the notification part if you just want to recall the setting of touch LED brightness after reboot. It's free

hmm..I can.
do i need to set any monitor app if i want it notice the miss call? if so, which?
Can't make it work with DocSlim
I tested all settings, i changed parameters in Accessibility, nothing happens...
Have you tried a reboot (though mine worked fine without on cm. Weird..)
Very nice, works on the G2x as well, with cm7
it works on su660 (korean version of o2X) too. thanks for good information.
Yep !
I've been using it since version 0.2 and it works really good. I just installed last version from market.
To emprize : no you don't need any app monitor for missed call. It's one of the 3 basics (Gmail, SMS/MMS, Missed call). Look into "notification" if "Missed call" is checked (should be by default).

I haven't noticed any as of yet but the way the program is set-up, it could be a battery guzzler. This app loops check for notifications as opposed to being built into the framework

If anyone of you notices a serious battery drain I'd appreciate a post
anybody know what's the accelerometer tolerance for? i don't quite get it.
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App
problems is that as soon as you have a notification, your phone will not go to sleep. And then will drain battery until you check your phone
Yea that's what I mean but you didn't notice a serious drain because of that?
Just to be sure, the screen remains off and the buttons glow it is simply that the phone doesn't go into "sleep" mode (what somehow makes sense)?!
Did some testing
And my sleeping phone (no notification) consume 2-3% an hour
With the notification glowing (meaning no sleep) for an hour, I loose 10%
The phone does sleep, the app has zero wakelock according to spare parts.
well, the leds are still blinking, from what I know (I still may be wrong there's no LG routine for the blinking. It does mean it's done by the "LG O2X Touch LED Notifications" so no sleep...
well this is what I'm guessing, since we do not have the source code
Just cos an app does something doesn't mean it has to keep the phone awake to do it

glaxy note notification light

anyone know if galaxy note has notfication light..i keep missing messages and missed calls
The Note doesn't have a notification light. For me it's the worst thing about the phone.
There is a mod (here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1389394&highlight=+mod+) that lights up the menu and back buttons when you have a notification. I've not tried it though...
Nope, there's none out of the box, which is a pity, you'll need something like

I got high battery drain with NoLED. And you should know that not only the shown pixels are on, the whole Display is. And with "black" the red and green AMOLED-Pixels are on as well. In summary an AMOLED-display itself supports a single lit pixel but the Android framework does'nt. So display notifications are useless in this form...
I m fully agree for battery n full screen notification. But here two more nice function help to reduce problem. Sleep time - i just do noled off for my sleep time, so no more notification reminder, as well disturbance
Another is audio reminder, if phone is in pocket even it remind you with audio. So chances to remain screen on/miss event is minimal.

Some custom kernels are compatible with BLN app (free in the market).
Search "BLN" with google, it's the best notification app (for me)

iam using v 5.1.2, do you mean Sleep time: is time settings--> time and sleep , where you adjust NoLed off at sleeping time?
Never tried the audio reminder, how it sound? would it be like someone keep telling you (you got a missed call)?
Ah yeah I forgot: The high battery drain is partially caused by the fact that the CPU cannot be in deep sleep while the display is on. Another "feature" of the Android framework...

Yes sleeping time means, noled remains disabled for given scheduled time.
For audio reminder you can set repeat time of it like how frequent it give reminder for missed event, n also selection of ring tone for audio reminder.

it looks nice indeed but sadly this causes the screen to be always on after recieving a message and with our phone having a screen on time of max 5.5 hours you dont really want this kind of behaviour.
say you get a message late at night before your going to bed and you just charged your phone your gonna wake up to a dead phone as overnight the battery will be drained empty.

The app have battery saving option. We can set the time for it to be off.
The worst is that I activate but, nothing happend... Once that I have a lot of
stuff frozen/uninstalled, I though the problem might be because of that.
That's why I ask if someone else can try it and report if it works, to see if
the issue is from the app or from my settings.

Open Knock²+ app, go to the tab "APPLICATIONS", you'll see several apps and in front of the app icon you need to activate.
If you don't have Facebook it won't appear there, only apps that you have installed, and messages you have
All of my app are activated. I tryed it out by sending an e-mail but it doesnt work..:banghead:
Edit:all of my apps where deactivated! I am an idiot!
It works great!
Is the battery drain significant?

I don't notice a big drain but, also didn't had a lot of "messages".
During the night (or other period) you select it to be OFF.
Explore the settings :good:
Yes i saw it has a lot of options. It can be off during the night,its off in your pocket and you can set the after what period it turns off!:good: Great app!
for me, the only problem is that the flash isn't used, even when i set it to double or single. it simply doesnt fire up ^^

Depends on the user, settings and of course if you receive 20 or 200 messages a day don't drain more than a normal app.

For me it use 15-20% overnight, when sleep mode is on. And from 37 to 15% in 6 hours is too much, turned off..

I just installed it yesterday, so far work OK. During the night I use "Sleep mode" and battery drain as usually, but I will check today how it's work during day time.
Really like the setup of the app and giving it also a try. Only thing that have noticed is tht phonecalls are shown only when another notification has come up. Will see if theres a way to controll it fro msettings.
Battery is still normal for me, lets see what longer usage period is showing.
the same for me ,it only start working when sms notification comes,after that calls notification works fine,led down t work ,and poked mode down t work ,it down t give a dam is the phone in your pocked or not ,im on stock JB ,rooted ,BL unlocked .

Battery Drain

I'm facing a problem with the messaging app. It keeps my phone always awake. This issue is detected by betterbatterystats and a wakelock detector. My phone gives me around 4 hours of screen time but I wonder if I can get more? Anybody facing similar problem?
I run ES Task Manager to automatically kill apps that aren't being used every few minutes and I get about an extra half hour out of it

1. turn off "Daydream" and "Glance" by setting--display
2. do not use "live wallpaper"
3. always use animations on "0.5" --settings--developer options
4. turn of "always awake" -- settings--developer options
5. set ur brightness low as possible
6. use apps kill app like "quickly recent app" and close all apps time to time.
7. turn off GPS and Data (when u dont need).
(For long life battery, use specific battery charger, lets the battery drained minimum of 4% then charge "if possible switch off the device and charge it".
Thank you all for your help. I had to freeze the stock messaging app using titanium backup to solve the battery drain issue. I'm currently using an alternative app.
