Screen stays on after notification recieved.....

What am I doin wrong ? Time out is set at 15 sec.
EDIT: Solved by using different SMS app. Email app works fine

nope.....email works, sms works, not missed call keeps phone awake all the time....
am i the only one ?

I had this problem... Had to reboot the phone.

I have noticed times when my screen was on. When I tried to determine why it seemed that I had received a mms over two minutes prior. My screen timeout is thirty seconds. I have since rebooted and will see if it makes a difference.

I've rebooted numerous times since I've gotten the phone. I prefer the stock messaging app and don't want to *have to* use something else to make it work right.
Any other ideas?

Looks like this is one of the bugs on the phone.....
Thank god all bugs are software related so far. With nexus it wad mostly hardware/software things

I think I figured it out (at least for me)...
I disabled the "puzzle lock" thinking it would be a pain in the neck when trying to unlock the screen. Come to find out, disabling it is what is leaving the display on when receiving a text. Enabled the puzzle lock, and the display comes on for a sec or two and then shuts off when I get a message.
I prefer very few steps to get where I wanna go. I don't like passwords or codes when unlocking my screen so I disabled it. Either way, though, I have swype the screen to unlock it so it's not a big deal to have the puzzle lock on...

Disable the fully charged message

Does anyone know how to disable the fully charged message, it always wakes me up in the middle of the night.
I read somthing about a hidden menu accessed through the dialer, but i cannot get that to work.

Sorry, but what is the «fully charged message» ?

When the battery is full the device tells you so, it wakes up and turns light on. Annoying when the phone lights up the bedroom. I found that there are service codes that can turn this off in other android phones. But i found no code for this on the SGT, i also did not find this setting in the service menu you can bring up through the dialer.
I found out how to turn of the "allways on when connected to power" setting, that helps ofcource. I would still like to turn off the message when battery is fully charged tho. I hoped that someone in this exellent forum found the code to do this.

Put a pillow on top of it

Funny...

Put it up side down?

I use Bedside. It turns off all notificarions except phone calls from people in my contacts. SMS can either be enabled or disabled as well.
It aslo works as a clock (can disable sleep if on charger), but allos your alarm clock to still work.

Man, you should hear the one of the damn vibrant. That one *is* loud. Forced me to turn off all sound every night. Haven't heard of a solution.

2 beeps is that annoying to you? Least thats what mine does

I turn my audio off at night, it just makes 2 haptic "beeps" which wouldn't wake anyone.

one pillow and blanket on top of that or charge it in other room but i know you loved it so much you want to keep it beside you.

I've got a Tasker script running that shuts off all audio and data from 1am until 6am which stops it bugging me and saves power.

Jupp i love my GT too much, i keep it close by allways and i do not have the heart to deprive it of the net when i sleep :-D, its really the light that bothered me, it was worce before i found out how to let the GT go back to sleep when on external power tho, and now it seems ive got used to it so i dont wake up. So i guess this is not an issue any more. Thank you all for trying to help me.

Something wrong with HDH!!!!

It keeps vibrating for no reason. Every morning it vibrates and I check it, no notification, no call, nothing and still I cant figure out why it vibrates on it's own.
Does anyone else has a similar problem???

What ROM and kernel are you using?

Sorry forgot to include.
Stock rom 2.2
Kernel 2.6.32.21

Well, I don't know if it's kernel or ROM actually, but I do experience it myself every now and then, on LeeDrOiD (current v2.2.2 with 2.2.4 kernel). No pattern at all, just happens once in a while, I don't take much note of it.

Have you set an alarm of some kind?

Do you accidentally press the volume+ and the volume- at the same time?

Try the following:
* Turn the phone off
* Remove the battery
* Return the battery and make sure it's secured
* Turn the phone back on
Observe if you still have the random vibrations.

THe same problem happens to my phone also. It keeps on vibrating. I think it happens when the phone Is low on memory

if I remember correctly, it's the kernel creating debug logs.

Yes, that's true. It vibrates when a debug log is created. Turning off usb debugging should fix this.
Had the same problem with 1.32 stock a week ago because i had to return to stock due to some reasons
Sent from my Desire HD using Tapatalk

Yeah debugging mode is on....gonna switch it off and see if it makes any difference.
Cheers guys

But don't forget: if you turn usb debugging off, it is possible that your cpu usage goes to 100% because of a bug in the init process. If you get lags or more battery drain turn usb debugging on again

Display Timeout

Hey folks, I just got my nexus and was unable to find another topic regarding the screen timeout feature (admittedly, searching the forums on a phone isn't easy).
My Nexus 4 will not go to sleep. I have the screen timeout set to 30 seconds, and have had the phone sitting on a counter for 20 minutes, screen still ablaze. Has anyone else experienced a similar issue?

Does the display dim?

Wonder, why that's happening. mine goes to sleep in 30 seconds. IDK if you did this already but a good reboot might work.

Is your phone currently charging?
Settings -> Developer Options -> Stay awake
I don't know how but I accidentally enabled this somehow. Whenever I charged my phone the screen would never turn off. Once got left on for 3+ hours

Timeout Eagles

I've never encountered that

Could be due to an app.
I had the same symptoms -- screen would not turn off by itself regardless of what I had the sleep setting set to. I could turn the screen off by hitting the side button, but it would not turn off by itself.
Then I remembered that there's some apps I installed that had permission to keep the screen on, presumably even if it is not the active app on screen.
I didn't have time to figure out which one was guilty, so I rebooted my phone to unload them and sure enough the phone does sleep automatically now (until I load up the errant app again, I suppose).
Good luck.

Thread moved. Questions belong in Q&A.
It definitely sounds like an app, e.g. I have dolphin browser set so it always keeps the screen on so I can watch stuff but if I don't close the app the screen will be left on obviously when I put it down and forget it.

Thank you for moving this the proper forum. I guess it was just hanging app. I guess I was just over anxious since the phone was brand new. Now it has been documented for future users. Thanks everybody.

Screen stays on after full charge..

I've googled and searched on xda but haven't been able to find much. So at night when I place my phone on the charger ask is good until it is completely charged.
The screen pops up telling me that I now have full charge and to disconnect charger. Bad thing is.....it doesn't go away..!!! Now I'm left with the screen lighting up the entire bedroom in the middle of the night.
Now this would bother me much but my girlfriend is now waking me err up in the middle of the night asking me to turn my screen off.
Please help!!!

Go into Settings>Developer Options (if you have it enabled) and look at the "Stay Awake" option. Make sure it is unchecked. If it is checked, the screen will stay on when it is plugged in unless you manually turn it off. I am guessing this is checked for you and is why the screen stays on.

This may sound dumb.. but I can't figures out where that setting is.. would you please guide to to the correct location

Well it looks like I may have found a solution to my problem. Found an app called Batter Charged Silencer. Not in the Google play store. Will try it tonight and see what happens.

Found a solution! PLEASE READ IN FULL
Hey man. I have a Note 3 and have the same problem. As you've probably discovered by now, the Battery Charged Silencer app does not work for our newer devices. In searching for alternatives, I found apps that provide an alarm for when the battery is fully charged. This was NOT what I had wanted, as I just wanted my light to go off when charged, but I figured this the best alternative (hear the alarm, unplug). HOWEVER, I discovered that one app in specific DOES NOT WORK AS IT IS SUPPOSED TO, and, because of this, my phone never lights up when fully charged!!! Go to the play store and get the free NEOADN FULL ALARM. I launched it once, disabled the notification bar selection because I didn't want that (so maybe do this just in case, and also leave the discharged amount option alone), picked a sound, and nothing mattered cause it never worked, never came on, and neither did my screen! One of the reviewers of this app said the app was crap cause it had to be launched each time to work. Maybe that's why it "works" for me, cause I activated it but then held my home button down and closed all apps (not thinking) and then realized it was a blessing! Just install, maybe configure how I said if needed, close your apps, and never worry about it again! (And don't ever update the app just in case they "fix" it). Hope this helps, let me know via email: [email protected]

Surprisingly the Batter Charged Silencer app did work for me. I've been good to go ever since. No more waking up to the girlfriend telling me to turn my phone off in the middle of the night
