Hi,
I set Do not Disturb mode at night but it seems to desactivate itself around 7 in the morning. I switch it on and off myself, it's not programmed.
I searched around in settings but I don't know why it does that.
Second thing, GPS activates sometimes when I charge my phone or when I switch the wifi on.
Any ideas ?
Thx, have a great day !

Hi, my phones screen keeps turning on in the middles of the night and just stays on as it is in the charger.
I dont want to change the settings, but I want to know what is causing my screen to turn on.
Is there some sort of logger that I can look at later the next day and see what activated my phone out of sleep mode?
Thanks
my diamond comes on every night at midnight. Been wondering the same
my vogue and diamond do the same
Wasnt this a problem touchflo (tf3d) ? Try doing a search... someone else has this problem before, for sure.
i think its start>settings>today>items tab > uncheck today timeout
I use my GPS a lot and I want my GPS to be running in the background while it track logs. I am not the only person who needs the GPS to not go to sleep so there must be someone else who has found a good solution.
First I tried S2U with a option to not go into sleep mode selected. This work well but I have to have S2U launch of a hardware button and also had to slide after waking it up.
Then I started using AE button plus. Set on of my unused side buttons to turn off screen with single press. This was the best solution I found except it has made taking pictures very buggy.
So has anyone found a good solution to keep the GPS on while the screen is off keeping power consumption down ?

GPS on and Power down are contradictory... I measured that the GPS uses 120mA to run.
Anywho, PhoneAlarm will do it for me. I have a GPS Tracking profile (a day and a night one actually) and the phone never turns off when I have it set to those. Gotta be careful with it though, if you forget to disable it you'll find a hot phone with a low battery in your pocket later.
Have you tried to just set the settings to do it? It's not automated, but it's free. There was a thread on a program called BikeMobile which the author describes how to modify the registry to NOT allow the phone to go to sleep when a certain com port is active. I never quite grokked it, but perhaps you will. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=387262
Thats going to be a nice and toastie phone all day.
Thanks khaytsus. I will try out PhoneAlarm and see how I go. I found the phone to be drawing only about 45ma when my screen was off. Just trying to find a rom to suit my needs at the moment. When I find one I will start to try to find a solution.
There are many programs like "trackme" which can log GPS and switch off screen for you. There are some standalone programs like "BlackMe" which can switch off just the screen and lock phone for you.
Hello. Can someone helo me. Had my watch a week and i love it but yestersay it got uodated to 5.0.1 and ever since then when i dock the watch in the cradle the screen wont switch off.
I cant remember how long you have to wait normally on old software but i left it 10 mins and still say there in dim mode.
Any ine else had this problem? Had ro put it in cinema mode to get to sleep lol
Any help will be greatly appreciated

just leave it there. It will turn off automatically (except if you turned on the always-on feature under development options).
I don't care when it goes to sleep ...it just does. I'm finding the watch sleeping in the morning.

for me, its actually the other way: the display will immediately turn off when charging when I enable the screen always on setting in the developer options
Wow ... that's weird ... I must try that on 5.01 .
Hi
I made a project to turn my phone to airplane mode automatically at night.
That would be very simply if I'd go to sleep at the same time every day.
My project uses the motion sensor to detect whether I am still awake.
Tasker checks if the phone was moved within the last 10 min and turns the phone to airplane mode if not. If the phone is being moved again tasker turns off airplane mode again. (Sensor is only alive until it was moved. Any move should turn the sensor off until next 10min check. So it won't drain too much battery)
To narrow down the sensor time I defined time dependent night mode which is turned off by an alarm event or rather late in the morning (in case no alarm was set)
There is also a sleep now task which can be triggered (with a widget if setup) to put the phone in airplane mode until it is picked up again.
I had to play around with sensor sensibility, length and accelerometer (which is now set to "no")

(Could not upload it as xml ...)
2 tasks are not part of the project but used anyways: silent and loud: these are to make the phone silent and loud again in the morning. I am not using taskers reset settings here because I want the phone to become loud 5 min after the alarm goes off because otherwise I get a sound notification about anything that happened straight away after the alarm goes off which I don't really like ... (plus if I look at the phone in the middle of the night I get a loud notification as well - even the phone turns itsself silent after max 20min again ...)
For airplane mode I use secure settings. My phone allows airplane mode with either secure settings or tasker itsself. If you don't have secure settings try taskers internal airplane mode: Net - airplane mode
Please check it out and comment ...
Regards
Nice
Can't wait to try this. Thanks for sharing.
Still one of my favorite projects on Tasker and never stopped using it.
Thanks again, Daniu.
Hey guys. Loving my note 8. I do have an issue. When watching videos, I lose sound. I discovered that the do not disturb button is enabled. I disable it and hours later it activates itself, without any input. If anyone has had the same issue, let's talk.

You don't by chance have the Do not disturb option "Turn on as scheduled" activated in your settings do you?
This is happening to me as well, in the afternoons the 'DO NOT DISTURB' 'Enable now' setting is automatically turned on
My 'Enable as schedule' setting is turned off.
I have also noticed my DND randomly turns on, and then it takes me several times of attempting to turn it off before it will finally stay off. This sometimes happens several times a day. I do have a schedule in place, but my settings within that also fall out - such as allowing alarms or my favorites. The alarm option will stay stuck in the off position until I end up having to restart the phone. Once the phone restarts then I can make the changes I want, but not sure why I have to keep doing this. My fear is that this setting will switch while I'm sleeping causing an alarm to not go off or I'll miss an emergency call. I could just not use this feature, but I really like it and wish it would work correctly. I never had this issue on my S7
I am having the same problem after the most recent update. DND turns on all by itself every afternoon.
I tried using the schedule figuring it might force it to do what I WANT it to do, to no avail. It still automatically turns on every afternoon?
This issue even happens in Safe Mode
