[Q] How to change my phone charging options. - Epic 4G General

I've got a few problems I was hoping someone might be able to help me change on my Epic.
1. When I plug the phone in to charge it automatically stays on. Is there a way to have it time out?
2. When the phone is finished charging the phone vibrates and displays a message stating the phone is fully charged and then the screen stays on. Can I make it not vibrate and have the screen turn off?
Thanks for the help. Otherwise I love the phone.

#1 go into your settings, under Applications, development, and uncheck "Stay awake". Then go back to where you purchased the phone and yell at the salesman for not unchecking it after they transferred your contacts from your old phone.
#2, root your device and implement a custom kernel.

Screen timeout when plugge in

Is there an option that can set a different screen timeout parameter when the phone is plugged in vs when it is on battery? I'm coming from a windows mobile phone and loved to be able to have my phone screen on at night while plugged in so i could find it easier

Not sure, but if you decide to pickup a desk/hdmi dock the screen will not timeout on it. You have to shut it off. And there is a night mode which is extremely dim, almost like a night light, and the screen can be read if your face is right on front of it.
Hey I got some help from people on HowardForums (Humpa) but anyways the setting is under settings>applications>development...kind of a weird place to hide something like this. Hope this helps others.

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

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.

Need Help, Rooted NS4G...

oh man, where do i begin? i decided to root my phone by watching one of the videos on youtube and everything went well, got the congrats, phone is rooted prompt. turned my phone off and let it charge overnight, when i turned on my phone,it operated as normal but then when the screen went off and i hit the power button to get the screen back on, the phone would not respond. i had to pull the battery and power it back on. this happens repeatedly.
and now i discover that i can't get on the market as it says there's no connection either on 3g or wifi.
does anyone have any idea of what i've done? is there a solution to this ?
Need detailed information of everything you did and used for the root process.

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

Audiomix" partial wakelock that is turning phone on when charging.

Hi guys, what a nightmare this is! im on CarHD V2.1/Android 4.4.2 & when ever i plug my charger in on a night the bloody phone switches back on, now ive looked into this and there is two apps you can DL to see what is causing the issue they are "wakelock detector & betterbatterystats" they have now shown me that its an app or some software in my phone called "Audiomix" thats causing this does anyone know what it is and how to disable it or a go around please?
cheers..
What do you mean it turns on? The screen turns on or the phone turns on ?
If it's your phone that turns on then it's not an app. It's the kernel.

Hi Lenny yes the phone turns on fully and its really annoying cause ive got mates all over the world who are FB messaging me or sending me text at all hours so i need the phone to be off when i turn it off, many thanks
It is your current kernel that does not support offline charging. Change kernel.
