I had asked a similar question and found out that no matter what the screen is going to come on when you get a text message. Now it definitely isn't supposed to stay on. That's not normal. I'm sure you have restarted you phone already as it may just be a bug that needs a restart. Another option for you would be to download a third party text program such as handcent.

You didn't happen to go into developers settings and accidentally check the keep screen on while plugged in box did ya? Or try Display settings n see what screen off is set at. I know these are probably obvious things but ya never know, we're only humans and we do miss things sometimes. Hope it helps ya?

Yea thats what i thought screen usually goes off base on the screen time that i set 15 seconds. But the phone screen stays on after 15 seconds of receiving the text i have to press the power button in order to shut the screen which its ok when im around the phone not charge but when i leave in my desk for a while i dont get the chance to turn off the screen so the screen stays on n kills the battery its weird. I even disable the pop out in lockscreen on message settings and still the same. Set the display to turn off at 15 seconds n doesnt help :-/ sucks

Boy, I'd like to turn this off. I charge my phone overnight on my nightstand. Sometime in the middle of the night it will turn the screen on, and stay on, with a message indicating that it is fully charge and that requires dismissal. Maybe someone can come up with a hack.
I think it's quite annoying as well, but the screen shouldn't be staying on from an alert. Are you running "No Lock" or something equivalent?
I also find the pop up annoying, but my phone turns off the display after a while... Leaving the screen on just sounds stupid...
On a Vibrant, using this app-thingy
I too would like to turn it off as it vibrates loud as heck when the alert pops up, and I am a light sleeper!
Subscribe! This notification interferes with my Night Clock and I REALLY want to know how to turn it off!
I have the "stay awake while charging" checked in Settings>Applications>Development
So, once it pops up then the screen stays on.
Yes, this annoys me to no end. I hope they create a setting with future updates. Otherwise, I wonder if the clock / desk dock allows you to turn off the screen without these notifications?
Also, has anyone even downloaded the desk dock app? I'm actually kind of disappointed that the screen won't dim any further. Even on 'night mode' it's extremely bright.
+1 for "I hate it". It's pretty stupid. Samsung needs to make this toggle-able in an OTA update.

curious where you saw a desk dock app?
Go to Android Market. Search for 'Samsung'.
There are two apps that - for whatever stupid reason - weren't included: 'Desk Home' and 'Car Home'.
They look kind of tacky, compared to Google's stock apps. I'd much prefer those, to be honest. But hey, they work. You can voice dial very easily, using the Car Home app. Pretty handy.
Try this: go to Tmobile my account app, select the alerts tab and turn off battery warning.

You are joking, right?....
Its fine to charge the phone while its on just not good to use it while charging. As for the pop up that's to make the phone more "green". Trickle charging can waste a lot of electricity so phone manufacturers put that in there, my Cliq did it too.

i personally dont mind the notification, but i keep my vibrant in the G1 sleeve case that came with it because it fits perfectly in there. my screen shuts off after 30 seconds of the notification. i'm sure in a future update samsung may address this, but until then, its really not that big of a deal, just my opinion
This damn notification is driving me nutz! It is interfering with my Bedside app and freezes my alarm so it doesn't go off in the morning. At least that's all I could link it to.
The battery charge is self managing. So I am not sure why Samsung thought that this popup was even necessary. It is not like leaving the charger connected is going cause any harm.

Yeah, it IS that big a deal. Maybe not to you, but to the rest of us. I use the Digital Clock app and keep the phone awake at night (you can set the screen really dim on that clock) for my alarm clock. Well, while the battery notice doesn't interfere with the alarm it is very bright and just the light wakes me up.
And I like my phone fully charged when I wake up, not down 10% because of whatever sleep processes ate electrons in the middle of the night. Especially since Samsung tried to make an iPhone wanna-be (physically) and made it so slim instead of putting a decent battery in it.
I've noticed many android builds gives u the option of the longest 30 minutes before your phone screen turns off itself. Is there a way you can leave your phone screen on until battery dies? Thanks.

Is it normal for my alarm to NOT go off when the phone is turned off but rings as normal when it's on?
I ask this because I sleep at night with my phone turned off. The alarm is set for 6:35 as normal for the morning.
For the past 2 days it failed to go off. The phone was however switched off, I take it the alarm does not ring unless the phone is on?
Should this be true it is strange as the older phones, the ancient Nokia's and Ericsson's used to ring while the phone was off.
My previous HTC Desire HD had the same issue, the alarm would ONLY ring when the phone was on.
Should it be turned off it would not go off.
Why is this? Any way to fix it?
Anyone?
Simple enough,just put your phone to flight mode and turn off the screen,dont power it off and dont mute it.
cuz automatically waking up is not supported by wm/android device.

Excellent idea, flight mode! This way will get undisturbed plus no more than 1 or 2% loss of battery in standby mode...
Also no one can call & disturb me. I though auto wake up wasn't supported, just wansn't 100% sure.
Cheers valest.
Valest, this morning at 6:35 my alarm rang for the FIRST time!!!
You are right about not turning the phone off...
I forgot to put in on airplane mode but thank god it didn't go off and I hardly lost any power...
Over a 7-8 hour period battery dropped from 100% to 98%
What excellent battery the Streak has... Screen brightness is ALWAYS set to 80% too.
I'm half way through the day and battery is still 94%
Lol your battery must be special or you really don't use your phone much. The battery is certainly better than most but not that great.

PS welcome to the streak. Even though its a year old its pretty good

becuz he was sleeping and the phone isn't really in use*^o^*
cpu and screen backlight are battery draining,so turn off your screen and let cpu go idle(set itself to 245mhz) helps a lot.
still,it could be crazier,my streak survived a 3 hours trip with less than 10% battery: turn down brightness,go to flight mode,shutdown unnecessary background app,set cpu to 245mhz.I was reading an e-book back then.

Yeah that's one thing I miss about Symbian. I could set the alarm on my Nokia then shut it off.
I currently use Tasker with a "night saver" profile I created. From 10pm to 6am:
Shuts down cellular data
Shuts down wifi
Shuts down bluetooth
Shuts down GPS
Turns off auto-sync
Drops the volume to "1"
As an alternative: you could buy a dock (i use the slacker dock) and plug it in on your nightstand.
It charges so you dont have to turn anything off and it's upright so it even looks like a clock

Haha, clever idea! But after testing it & only loosing 2% battery it doesn't bother me keeping it on.
I thought it would have taken more power as my old HTC Desire HD had a crappy battery and needed to be charged almost every day with LITTLE use...
Standby overnight would take around 8-10% This is based on a 6-7 hour period, which I think is bad as it's doing nothing...
i noticed my screen ontime stats don't work anymore? not sure what happend, gsam displays it 0:00:00 also when i i goto settings ,battery, i dont' get the screen on stats
not sure what caused this

Happens to me too, after a reboot or powerup. It shows up after 5min or so of screen usage.
The screen on / awake little bars are also bugged? Sometimes the awake bar doesn't show as it was awake even when the screen was on usage.
So I've rebooted and still no screen time now I have this black bar on the screen now

Ok after few reboots. I got my screen timeon stats again. But now I keep seeing media process . What is that?

Theres a lot, I mean a lot of threads about media service, use the search, we don't want a new thread about it!
Anyone else noticing their tab screen randomly staying on?
It's always the same, screen randomly turns on and stays at the locked screen. It does this until I interact with it, or until it runs the battery dry.
It's sporadic, sometimes when charging or not even touched.
I haven't been able to isolate what triggers the screen to turn on.
One night it was charging face up and it just turned on and stayed on.
The other day, I left it in a drawer fully charged and came back to it completely drained.
Most other times it just happens when it's laying around.
Sometimes it stays on with notifications, sometimes no notifications.
But during the nights, I have it on blocking mode, so notifications wouldn't trigger the screen.
I also made sure daydream mode and stay awake are both off.
At a total loss here.
Anyone else have this issue?

I was having this issue when I had the brightness turned all the way up. The phone would randomly wake itself up. Try switching your time off to five minutes and turn off the smart stay. Worked for me and fixed my battery issue

My brightness is never all the way off, most of the time it's actually all the way down.
Time off has been switched between all the times, and smart stay has never been on.
Can't seem to figure it out.
