Have a check at your phone administrators see if one of your apps or something has control or permissions to do it..I don’t know if it’s this it’s just a thought.

Unlock Droid every morning?

Is there a way that my phone can automatically restart around say.... 6am and then require a password/pin/pattern to unlock it for the first time?
Thank you mucho. =)
Buuuuuuump.

If you set your phone into airplane mode there is a bug that will restart the phone about 8 hours later. then, you are forced to enter your pin again after turning airplane mode off.
I think you could use either tasker or settings profiles, both paid apps in market. Settings profiles has a free lite version to try as well.

Ah thank you very much. I might pick up tasker then. And what version of android has the airplane mode bug? I have ICS right now.

Let me know if you get tasker to work, you will also have to get locale and the locale execute plugin since tasker actually doesn't have a reboot option. I've got everything necessary but couldn't get it to work.

[Q] Does anyone have the screen tinting on and off every few seconds?

The screen changes - a cream tinit that goes on and off every few seconds. Most noticeable on white screens eg Google Reader. Does anyone else have this, and how do I fix it!!! It's so winding me up and lets down an otherwise amazing screen and device.
Try turning off automatic brightness (settings, screen) and test if issue is still there.

99% certain its the automatic brightness being set on...just untick the box in the display section of settings, that should also disable the tinting effect when your on Google and internet sites

Go to Settings>Display>and on the bottom you will see "Auto adjust screen power" turn that off and you wont get the cream tint
The power settings seem to be the culprit. So far, it seems much better. I'll report back if it reverts back to disco lights.
I'd recommend to update your phone if you havent done so yet. Check if same issues arise if they do, and you eally want the setting maybe send the unit back?

I'm using midnote 3.4, but it did the same on gingerbread too.

[Q] Text-to-speech Toggle?

Ok, somehow during setup I toggled on this annoying TTS feature where it reads each word I type while sending a text. However, in loads of googling and searching various boards, I cannot find any reference to changing this setting. I would like to turn it off. Thoughts?

I haven't tried this personally but the first thought I had was it sounds like you might have accidently turned on "voice readouts" under the accessibility settings.
I'll test it myself and get back to you.
Edit: I just tried turning it on, I got very similar behavior to what you're talking about.
That was my first thought but none of my accessibility features are turned on. I forgot to mention it only happens when typing on the virtual keyboard.

And for the time being it seems to have turned itself off... stupid smartphones are too smart sometimes

Which keyboard are you using?

My phone vibrates for no 'reason'

Greetings all,
I have a new Note5 and overall I like it.
As you might expect I have been working feverishly to find up to date app solutions for my usage model and that will work on an unrooted device. I despise all that conspire to force this upon us! Anyway I have been testing loads of apps and somewhere along the way something has been set to vibrate to indicate something. It is happening at fairly random intervals and nothing shows on screen or in the pull down that accounts for it.
I have looked for events that are pending, past due, etc. I don't get many texts. So, it isn't that. I have even turned on airplane mode which should prevent any kind of updaes or pushes that might trigger an notice.I have checked all of the apps I am using and none are set to vibrate only. From the initial turn on of this phone I have run package disabler pro for Samsung. Using a basic list from this xda thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/note5/general/guide-bloating-touchwizzing-note-5-t3184563. I have restarted the phone several times as well
Can anyone suggest some kind of system monitor/logging app that I can load that will allow me to find out which application is triggering this? Is there some other way I can find out what is triggering this event? I expect that a logging app will eat battery more but on a temp basis that would be ok.
Thanks all and here's to someone finding a way for us to root our notes without messing up our warranty and secure payment...

If you are talking about how it vibrates when you first pick it up for seemingly no reason, then that's a feature. It's to let you know you have notifications. It's called smart alert, you can disable it in the gestures menu.
vibrate (and sound) for 'no reason'
Thanks _MetalHead_
But no. This happens when it is sitting undisturbed. I will check and turn off that feature if it isnt already so it isnt adding to the confusion.
If I didnt say, I find no idication of active alarms or notifications.

Do you have any Bluetooth devices connected? I had a smart watch with my S5. Every time it connected or disconnected, the phone would vibrate. This was especially annoying when I left the watch in the bedroom while sitting in the living room with my phone. Every few minutes it would connect/disconnect and the phone would vibrate.

Not clear if this is contributing. Will turn BT off to be certain.
Actually, I think I can say for certain no. This has happened in airplane mode.
That is why I am looking for a system logging application or some equivalent method.

Hi, Go to settings and go to S Pen Option, and turn off all S Pen alerts, including power saver one.

Yeah, I re-read your OP, and noticed you said it was happening in airplane mode.
The S-Pen suggestion above seems worth pursuing.
Good luck!
I have the same problem. It would just randomly vibrate. I think is something to do with Google notifications.

2 questions.

Hey guys I do have two questions to ask. I would greatly appreciate some answers and feedback. First off is it possible to flash the AT&T LG v40 ROM to a T-Mobile LG v40? Second I'm having a problem with my sound in terms of the notifications and the ringer. It turns itself on at certain times yet I don't have context awareness enabled. Is there some thing I might have enabled that makes it turn on like that.

Sounds like a Do Not Disturb schedule is set and turned. You can find tge settings to turn it off in settings.

It happened to me too.
I spent about an hour going into the Notification Settings for every application and 'Resetting' them all to Default while making sure Do Not Disturb was turned off on all Apps.
Then went back and set the Do Not Disturb to the settings of my choice in each app and for phone-calls and it's never failed me yet. I'm sure there's an easier way to do it, but I only know this way.
