Can't put phone to standby in Froyo

Hi all, I recently installed the SetCpu app and placed the recommended settings and now my phone won't go into standby mode in Froyo. When I press the red button, the only option I see is shutdown. I also tried installing spare parts as recommended in the nexus one thread but it wouldn't install for some reason. Any suggestions?

there is no standby function...
just push the End button once and the screen will go to sleep, thats it.

Try posting in the relevant thread. Absolutely no point in starting a new thread

I think what I meant was before I installed the SetCpu app, I would press the red button and it will bring you screen where you gotta swipe to unlock the phone. Now I don't have that function anymore?

SetCPU should not have disabled that function. Make sure you didn't change any other settings somewhere else.

Safe mode

I had never heard of this prior to talking with tech support.
Function: disables all third party apps for checking network running issues with said apps.
How: with phone turned on, hold power button until the menu for shut down appears. Then press and hold "Power down" until it boots into the safe mode.
Reboot to leave safe mode.
Not sure if this is new or not as the few years I have been using Android I'd never heard about it.

Thanks man. Pretty useful at times I'm sure.

You said it wrong. You press and hold "power off" until the safe mode prompt appears.

i learned something else - which might be obvious to others, but coming from gnex that was rooted/rommed from day 1 i didn't realize:
hold the power button and the phone will reboot.
even though there's no option in the power menu for reboot, only power off and airplane mode
also, here's the official step by step instruction for safemode:

Slow Wifi ? There is a Solution to make it faster

How to Disable WiFi Power Save Mode
The WiFi Power Save Mode configuration of the Galaxy Note 2 is a hidden feature. This can only be accessed and turned off by performing the following steps:
1. Tap the Phone app.
2. Key in *#0011# in the dialler.
3. Hit the Menu button below the screen of the Galaxy Note 3
4. Select WiFi.
5. Tap the “WiFi Power Save Mode” button to Off.
Reminder
Turning off the WiFi Power Save Mode can help optimize the connectivity and performance of your device but it has the tendency to drain your battery faster. So, consider this tradeoff first before disabling it.

I think it will not be faster, but more stable?

Than hou have to change the Title of the thread, is a little bit misleading.........

Maybe I should warn everybody, this will kill your battery within 24-36 hrs, even if you don't use your phone at all. I did try this setting, didn't do anything to my WiFi connection, but my battery had hard time to last me whole day with moderate use. It's a good thing I finally remember I changed that setting, because my battery life was beyond terrible. I can go 4-5 days without charging with light use, but this setting made it hard to last 1 day.YDMV

Unless I'm missing something, I don't get a wifi option. I guess that this isn't anything to do with which ROM?

Hi. You can switch off this option from Setting > Accessibility. Untick the option "Power key end call".

Hey,I am habitual of using this function "power button ends call", and it is working properly in my phone,
on stock 4.4.2 (d802)

Well, not with mine...

So let me give my rundown with the power button end call issue. So I downloaded kitkat via the cable method a couple of days before the ota arrived from verizon. I noticed immediately whether checked or not the power button would end my call. I did a factory reset and still the same issue. Going above and beyond I used the LG flash tool and the 11a tot file to go back to Jellybean. I took the 12b ota and then the 4.4.2 ota. After doing all this my power button still ends every call. I am at the end of my rope. My son has the same phone and no issue. I believe it may have to be hardware related at this point. I put in a trouble ticket with LG customer support due to Verizon not having a clue on May 6, still have not heard from LG.

On the Verizon variant mine is in the call settings and accessibility, both are unchecked and it still ends a call. Very frustrating when you are on speaker phone and want to turn off the display and you hang up on someone.

Seriously???
you think there is a different between" call settings " and" "Accessibility"?!
Any way I tried both and there is no change.

It's not hardware related. It worked as intended on jellybean. I can't remember if the bug started on 80220b or 80220d. I'm on a 80220d based custom rom now where the problem persists. The issue is definitely a screw up by lg. I'm quite positive that an aosp rom wouldn't have the issue but I'm not bothered enough to flash an aosp rom.

Marshmallow "Hibernate" Mode

Is there any possibility of having a "Hibernate" mode in Android Marshmallow, or is this already implemented in any roms? Like, it saves the current state to memory before it powers down so that when you turn it back on again, it just resumes that state in a few seconds instead of taking a few minutes to boot up from scratch?

No. Sorry This doesn't exist and nothing like it
That's what doze is trying to do, it essentially hibernates your phone while on.
But to completely power off the device then power back up quicker than normal like your TV, does not exist at all anywhere

I know at least HTC phones used a hibernation mode, they called it quick boot or fast boot though. Not sure if they still have it on current gen devices.

Yeah, I honestly hated this feature.
When holding the power button, you only have a "power off" button if you didn't have APM installed. If you were trying to fix an issue via rebooting, you had to do a hard shutdown/restart.

I always turned it off because it meant you couldn't use fastboot.
