I could have sworn I saw a setting that'll let you keep the phone from locking automatically when charging/USB?
Settings -> Applications -> Development -> Stay Awake ?
Ha, I knew I saw it when I did my "check every menu" rounds.
Thanks, I'm a doofus.

Just got a HTC TyTn and am working my way through it . Previous Treo 650 owner.
First question: How do I turn off what I define as the "mouse click" sound?
Secondly, where can I edit what gets displayed on my Today screen?
Thanks!

for first Q: start > settings > personal > sounds & notifications > remove the tick mark on screen taps
for second Q: start > settings > personal > today > items > remove tick marks on items you do not want to be displayed
hope this helps.

Regarding screen taps - it's already unticked! Still getting clicks when I click on the start menu (etc).
Re: the Today screen, thank you.
For that:
start > settings > personal > sounds & notifications > remove the tick mark on Events.
You might lose other sounds with this also but not things like reminders etc...

I just found out about this last night. I received a called around 12am. The S4's torch flash start flashing in interval when i got the call. Pretty weird but cool at the same time. I tested it out in the next morning and it still does that.
Does anyone know that its a Samsung's feature or something else that I installed? I wanna turn it off to save battery.
Thanks.
Mine doesnt do that...

Check your accessibility settings to turn this on and off... Its a feature commonly used for people who are hard of hearing so they can see the phone flash when it rings.

There is nothing in the Accessibility option that flash the torch when I get a phone call.. This is weird.. I dont know any app that does that by default.. Does anyone else have any ideas at all?

Menu -> Settings -> My Device Tab -> Accessibility -> Under hearing at the bottom there is a flash notifications check box.

That option is NOT checked at all and the torch is still flashes when i get phone calls. But not for text/email, etc..
Try checking it and unchecking it. If that doesn't work, it's an app.
Hello guys, I want to try to help everyone who has problems with battery life and performance.
First of all, I want to say that you shouldnt have any problems if you use your device in a normal way(calling ,social networking apps, playing light games etc)
A SOT of around 6-7h on mobile network or a SOT of 7-8h on WiFi is really good and in my opinion normal and you shouldnt need to worry about. Over night while you are sleeping (8h for example) your battery shouldnt drain more than 3-5%.
If you have much less SOT or much more battery drain over night, you should read the following steps and try them.
(I can tell you that my OP3/3t never drains more than 3-4% over night and I have no problem getting 6h SOT on mobile network or 6-7h or even more on WiFi use only. I have to say I dont use Facebook or twitter for example, but I have my Bluetooth always turned on because i use a mi band )
Please try the following steps and tell me if it did help you. (Please choose one option in the pool)
1. Activate doze mode and aggressive doze mode in developer options and change the animation scale
- Go into settings -> developer options -> Doze mode -> activate it
- Go into Settings ->Battery ->3 Dots Menu ->Agressive doze & app hibernation ->Tap the slider and activate for apps
- Go into settings -> developer Options -> Window Animation scale/Transitions Animation scale/Animator duration scale -> set them to .5x or even off
2. Install Greenify from Google Play Store and activate it
Activate it for every app you can, except for apps with a little blue cloud as they need to work in background to sync data. (WhatsApp for example)
3. Wipe cache after every update and from time to time (I recommend once a week)
Turn off your phone -> hold power button and volume down button -> release the power when your phone turns on -> select english by pressing the volume down button and then the power button -> go to wipe cache and data -> select cache (and nothing else!) and press the power button -> reboot now
4. Turn off potential power hogs you dont necessarily need
- For example turn off Bluetooth, GPS Location and Location history, Mobile Data if not in use, WiFi if not in use and NFC -> you can find them in settings under their name
- Also turn off things like gestures in settings: Go into settings -> Gestures -> turn them off
5. Use pocket mode
Settings -> Advanced -> Pocket Mode
6. Turn off Android Device Manager and Google Now Cards
- Settings -> Security & Fingerprint -> Device Administrators -> Android Device-Manager -> turn it off
- Open your Google App -> Settings -> Your Feed -> Turn off Feed
7. Configure your WiFi
- Settings -> Wifi -> tap the gear symbol -> turn off "Scanning always available"
- You can also turn off "Keep wifi on during sleep" but i dont recommend it as apps like WhatsApp will only receive messages when you turn your screen back on!
8. Use adaptive brightness
Use the little "A" in the dropdown settings menu next to your screen brigthness bar
9. Use a Browser that is developed for Snapdragon devices
I recommend using Gello Mod or TugaBrowser as they are developed especaily for using with a device with a snapdragon CPU to save battery -> just search for them in Google
10. Disable permissions of apps
Try disabling permissions of apps if possible. This should prevent apps from using your internet connection and staying in background keeping your CPU awake. Please be aware that some specific apps need some specific rights to work properly. Use the try and error method here.
11. If u have custom recovery installed you can use custom kernels such as ex kernel , blu spark etc for better battery and performance.

Im using it, obviously isn't optimized exactly for the 3T but they are quite similar devices and it's better than stock imo.

Then disable for apps you constantly use.
Hey there, is there any way how to stop that feature that will kill App in background (especially Pokemon GO), when im using Pokemon Go Plus, original App must be fully loaded in Background.But after few minutes phone will "kill" pokemon go and i have to reload game and pair it with Pokemon GO plus again.
Is there any way how to make App/Game priority so phone wont kill it when im not using it ?
Hope you understand

I have a few things for you to try
1.
Settings > Device Maintenance > Battery > Advanced(top right)
You can either just turn off App Power Monitor (if you do ignore number 2.)
or if you want to use it still you can click on it and then click "put unused apps to sleep" and change the sleep delay.
2.
Settings > Device Maintenance > Battery > Unmonitored Apps (scroll right down to the bottom to find it)
and add the apps you dont want it to monitor.
If none of this has worked for you its possible an option in devloper settings is enabled.
3.
Settings > About Phone > Software Information > Tap "build number" over and over untill Developer Mode is enabled
Then go to
Settings > Developer options (at the very bottom) > Make sure "Do not keep activities" is turned off and that "limit background processes" is set to standard.
Hope this helps :good:

I had the same problem
I'm not entirely sure that is all fixed but seems to be
Go to Settings -> Installed Apps -> Find Waze and Android Auto -> Enable Autostart -> Battery Saver -> Set to "No restrictions"
