Background activity is off, but the app still somehow does something in the background.
Is there an explanation?
Anyway.. what's the best way to save battery? Turn off background network and background activity?
Are there any other ways to stop apps from using battery?

What apps did you disable background activity to break your missed calls notification?

No apps, just Android systems in battery chart.

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?

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.

Is there anyway to disable/bypass this message as it's annoying I have to tick ok each time I want to turn on mobile data.
Thanks in advance,
PS running stock rom
I noticed that problem too and would be interested in a solution for that. But i don't know how to solve that...:/
Get a widget that turns data on. I'm using Power Toggles and I don't get the question, only if I enabled from the top status bar icon.

Thanks - good to know, but I'd rather just stick with using the top status bar.
I wonder if Elixir2 can block it, much like it blocks the 'data off' notification as per http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=39570962&postcount=13
Wouldn't know what setting to look for in Elixir2 though.
Cheers
I also like to use original Sony widget..any possibility to disable? Also disabled the notification when you turn it off with elixier..but dont Know which File to disable..

This is bugging me as well. I think this can fixed with root. I have no experience in development so I can't tell you for sure, but if one can change the size of navbars, then skipping this message should be accomplished by changing a 1 into a 0 somwhere in the code.
Have looked through the other services in Elixir2 and nothing obvious stands out to turn off this Cancel/OK dialog on activation of data. It's incredibly annoying!
(have successfully disabled the notification after turning it off)
Would love to know which flag it is I need to disable...
I have this persistent notification which won't go away even after I unchecked the show notification check box. Any ideas how to get rid of the notification?

Don't know the app but it should be a setting within the app and not where you unchecked it in app info. 2 separate purposes...

Nope. No such options exsists in the app. I tried finding it but nope. It also started showing up in my notifications when I upgraded to 4.3, could it be the issue? Or could it be the app itself as it functions as a DSP manager?
Well I use juice and so long as the service is on you can't remove that notification banner so I can only offer that some apps keep it there until closed. I can completely kill the notification like you did and it will disappear but some apps have the options to only stop the notification in the pull down and not the bar. Whereas stopping it via app info kills both/all.

NotificationsOff is a great app for this. After 4.3 Google blocked a loophole apps were using to be persistant without user knowledge. The downside is upon reboot the icon comes back. This app will remove the icon but allow the app to run the in mode it was intended

Hi,
I've just released my new Notifications App for Pebble. It's new for pebble, but it's used for a lot of people in its SmartWatch 2 version.
It's basically the same App that Notifications for Smartwatch 2 but this is only for Android 4.3+ because it doesn't use Accessibility.
And now for limited time is only for 0.99$.
Try it, you will like it!
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pacosal.pebble
**************************
Now there's a new App for Android 4.1+ that reads notifications but using accessibility. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pacosal.pebble.accnew

Thanks,

Is there a way to turn off google now notifications? Or only leave google now reminders? I was using a different notification app and it would keep going off for temperature and traffic notifications which was annoying but didn't have an option to turn it off.
Great app, looks promising.
Is there a way to turn off group notifications for Whatsapp?

Hi,
when a new type of notifications arrives, the App will ask you if you want to read them. If all notifications comes from the same App there's no way to diff them.
Thanks

When you dismiss notifications in your app, will they dismiss on the phone? This is the only functionality I want a Pebble for and yet no apps seem to do this.

Any apps that use Android Notification access (eg this app in this thread, and notification center for pebble) should be able to dismiss notifications on the phone.
Im about to install this app, it looks ok. Ive used notification center and it definitely does dismiss.
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.

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...
