Screen Wake When Plugged In - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

My phone screen turns on when I plug in the charge cable or put it on the wireless charger. Is there a way to disable this?

Per chance do you have stay awake enabled in developer options?

There is no native way to avoid this behaviour, but you can somewhat manage it via an app called Snoozy charger in playstore

I'm just curious... Why are you bothered by the 5 seconds of screen on when you plug in the charger ? It just gives you an indication that charging has started, 5 seconds, and then it turns off.

Nook stops charging with lockscreen

Hey, have a quick question. With my nook, if I plug it into the wall it starts charging and even promps me that it is doind so. However, when I lock the screen then unlock it with my password the icon that says it is charging is regular. When I unplug it and plug it back it it charges. Is this just a glitch or is it really still charging?

screen stays one while charging

anyone else having this issue and/or know of a fix?
I know that's a setting.. at least in the cm10 roms
Look in settings then developer settings and have a look if you turned it on by accident

its not the "keep screen on while charging" option you guys are thinking of. for some reason the screen just stays on while charging. the asus charger it came with does not cause the problem though.
when i first plugged mine in to a charger that wasnt the one shipped with it, it'd keep thinking i was plugging/unplugging it and so the screen would always be on.
Does it alternate between Charging and battery level on the lock screen?
Screen is on when charging, but once it's plugged in and charging, can you turn the screen off by pressing power button while it's charging?
That's how my NC works.

Touchpad turns itself on when charging?

When I charge my HP Touchpad via either the USB cable or the touchstone dock it will turn itself on after a few minutes displaying the low battery symbol and robot into the default OS. Once in either Android or WebOS it will then open the clock app. Is this normal behaviour? If not then has anyone found a solution?
Thanks
Yeah, its supposed to do that...

Ah okay, just thought I'd ask in case it was ruining my battery or something.

When I have mine on the Touchstone and power it off it stays off , but if connecting to a charge source while turned off yes it does turn on . Try turning it of while it is still on the touchstone or connected to a power source. I checked mine with a touchstone.

It's normal, but once on you can power off and it should stay off while charging.
On earlier versions of the nightly, it used to reboot until powered off, but that problem seems to have been fixed with the recent updates.
Noticed one thing on my CM9 TP... just flashed to CM9 for a day or so... never had problem with the power button menu (Power off, Reboot, Screenshot.. etc) until I plugged it to the charging cable (via A/C -> USB adapter) charging it. Power menu doesn't get call out by holding the power button... anyone?
Mine doesn't turn on while charging if it is charging when I turn it off. If I plug it in, it can randomly restart
I have the same problem...what I did is to connect the charging cable first. then power off the tocuhpad. It stays off and won't reboot during the charging period.

[Q] charging over usb

Is there any indicator of charging? When I plug in charging there are no indicator of charging once screen is off. Couple of times, while charging over USB, my phone didn't charge at all, and I didn't know because screen was off and there's no indicator of charging exceps icon on screen.
Anyone had problems with charging over USB?
Your usb ports may not provide enough power for charging. Often the case with laptops, sometimes only specific usb ports provide power.
My USB charger works fine but there is NOT an external indicator because there is NO LEDs
battery icon changes when charging

You do not want to keep the screen on while you are sleeping, for example!!!
Try this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.led.notify&hl=en
Makes use of the LED backlit screen, VERY useful.
Not enough power over USB is not likely, because sometime it does charge, sometime it doesn't. On same USB, I charge HTC Desire without any problem.
And I also think that not having indicator of powering is wrong, because keeping screen on is bad solution. There should be a led light indicator or some other way without keeping screen on.
Sounds like a bad cable but if you can charge your desire then i'll guesss it's not.
Stupid question, but have you tried different cables? Different usb-sockets?
Only problem left I can think of is if your connector on the phone is bad.
Mine charges just fine through USB.
Tried different cables, different USB. But sometimes works, wometimes not, so it bugs me. I would hate if it's bad connection on the phone, but just can't find what it is, since sometimes it works, sometimes not.
It would have been nice, afaik the S III has one. But then that's a design decision by Samsung. If you decide you need that LED, you should have chosen another phone.
For me, it's not that that big an issue...

Using NoLED now and powering over charger, no problems so far

Wireless charging won't work unless screen is locked

What's the trick to allow the Note 9 apps to function while it's wirelessly charging? Currently, the phone won't even charge when wirelessly docked unless I lock the screen or enable Daydream.
Is there a hack that can fix this arbitrary limitation?
There's no hack. The Note 9 functions just fine while wirelessly charging. You have a bug.
Thanks for the quick reply. So, you can have an app like YouTube running on the foreground full screen while your phone is fast wireless charging?
Mine DOES show that it's charging in the notification bar, but the red led on the phone doesn't turn on unless the phone screen is locked. So, it looks like it's charging, but it doesn't actually charge the battery. When doing searches on this issue, I just see others asking the same question without a solution.. even for other Android phones.

Mine charges just fine while using it. I often put it on the wireless charger and watch Netflix. Of course using it will slow the charge rate, but it should at least keep up with the use.
Does your red led for charging stay on for wireless charging while watching Netflix, etc? Mine turns off unless the screen is off.

No that light only stays on while the screen is off.
Your get the same thing when using wall charger, indicator only turns on when screen is off since it's a notification LED. It isn't meant for it to stay on while screen is on since you can see battery icon showing its charging.
From what I've experienced, the phone will charge wirelessly, with screen on (about 800mAh) and wirelessly fast charge (I cannot get a mAh measurement, because the screen has to be off to get the "fast charging" toast message seen on the lock screen) with the screen off.
This seems like an odd limitation to purposely install, but there it is.
