hey! I'm looking for some function that does:
If AC-Power is connected AND there is a new message/email/call then turn on display and leave it on till AC is disconnected.
That would be great!! Any ideas?

Hi All,
can anyone make a software to toggle usb charging? half the time my phone is connected to the usb for syncing but i dont want it to stuff up the battery since it charges it to full in about 3 hrs and i stay in office longer than that. would be good for the battery to be able to switch it off once in a while.
thank you
I know there's a reg key that can do what you said, depending on your device. I guess an app would be as simple as toggling that reg key. You can do it in mortscript or skschema.
But if you got a phone like Trinity that I own, then you are out of luck
When I updated my 8525 to WM6, I haven't been able to connect to active sync...
I plug the USB cable into the phone, and with active sync open, and all that happens is the light glows orange for about 2 seconds then shuts off. The charging icon disappears also. When I leave it plugged in, when the screen blanks out the orange light comes back on, but it never connects to active sync. When I turn it back on, the light goes out and I'm back to square one.
I plugged it into the charger, and it charges fine, so I know it's not the port on the phone. I've tried this with multiple cables and different chargers and nothing... Don't know what to do.
I have it sync with Exchange for my corporate emails. Could that have something to do with it?

Hi guys,
I've got my Nexus One since early 2010, which was working like a charm until last weekend.
I was sleeping in a tent at a festival, and the phone slept in like 2 drops of water for the whole night. During the night I felt it vibrated, I think it was the "I'm dead" vibration, although it was at 47% when I got to sleep.
In the morning, I saw like 3 drops of water behind the screen glass. The ball was glowing green, although I don't remember setting any notification to this color.
I tried to put the screen on with ball click, power button click, power button long click, power button long click + volume up or down or ball... nothing.
So I thought it was dead. I went to charge it, the charing LED was RED instead of the usual orange. But it charged, and now it's working fine.
Problem is, when I plug it to the wall charger or USB or car dock, the LED is always RED and never orange nor green.
When I plug USB, windows is saying (translated from french) "USB Device not recognized. One of the USB devices connected to this computer did not work well, and Windows does not recognize it. Click this message to show help."
If I slighly move the cable, without unplugging, the message keeps popping like once every 2-3 seconds.
I don't know what to do. I can use wireless ADB, which is good if my laptop is using internet over wifi, but it's not working if the laptop gets internet from an ethernet socket. Indeed, windows does not know which interface to use to reach the phone, and it tries over ethernet...
Any idea? Would it be worth it to open it and try to remove rust?
Thanks
Regards
Edit: would it be possible to move this to Q&A? I guess I posted in the wrong section. My apologies about that.

Hi,
Some custom roms like AOKP allows to enable / disable the "Wake up on charger". If it's unticked the screen don't turn on if you plug / unplug your phone from USB or wall charger.
EDIT: sorry misreading, it's for wireless charging...
I have accomplished this with some Tasker (app) profiles i found on the forum. I have attached them. The profile turns off the screen after 3 seconds of starting charging then prevents it from coming on again. Perfect for inductive chargers that lose charge for a microsecond every little bit. It also keeps the screen off after removing from the charger, you have to manually press the lock button.

Works for me. Screen never comes on after the first three second, which I lowered to one second. have you locked the phone first before you put it on the charger?

I use the orb to charge my N4 at work. This works great until it reaches a full charge. At this point the screen turns on as wireless charging shuts off. Then a minute or so later when it drains to 99%, the screen turn on as wireless charging starts back up. Then when it reaches full charge a minute or so later.... yada yada yada. This is beyond annoying watching my phone flash continuously. My only "solution" at this point is to slide the phone up so that the wireless charging doesn't work and leave it that way until it drains further. Is there any way to tell the screen to NOT come on when charging starts or stops?

How familiar are you with messing with Android?
In system\framework\framework-res.apk\res\values\bools.xml there is this option: <bool name="config_unplugTurnsOnScreen">false</bool>
It is set to true by default but if changed to false, as far as I can tell, the screen won't turn on when you start/stop charging the phone.

I'm assuming you have to be rooted to be able to do this, right?

Yes - best case scenario for editing that value is that you're rooted and deodexed. That way framework-res.apk will be more easily editable.
Hello! I am running cyanogenmod and Timur Rom on 2012 N7. I have tasker to detect power on and power off but here's my trouble..
The N7 will only detect power when the display is on!?!?!?!
If the display is turned off or times out or is locked and I give it power, the display doesnt turn back on automatically. I turn it on manually with the lock button on the side and the battery shows no charge coming through.
With the display still on, i unplug and plug the power back in and it works fine!
I tested it on the PC. PC detects the N7 fine and sees the HDD. Even with the display off, the PC will detect the N7 and I can explore folders but the N7 still receives no power until I manually turn the screen on and unplug and plug the charger back in!
This is preventing me from doing the car dash install because I cannot depend on the N7 to turn on display automatically because it does not detect power with screen off. Only with screen on!
I have went through all settings a million times, tried every 101 troubleshooting step, and I cannot figure it out.
Please, please, please help me figure this out. It's driving me crazy! :cyclops:
