Is it possible to turn on cinema mode and get notifications? (with vibration)
I can not find battery stats in Android wear app. Can you tell me where it is?
I am using a Sony Smartwatch 3
1- I have the same smartwatch and when I turn on the cinema mode I receive notification only with vibration and the screen don't turn on.
2- Open android wear and click on settings icon--->smartwatch 3 (connected) in device setting ---> watch battery

When my phone goes into sleep mode my stopwatch alarm doesn't go off, any solution to this?
Hmm i use GWatch (free) which performs well and stays active in standby... Can only recommend it. BTW: it would help if you could tell WHICH stopwatch u are using...
I have noticed in cm 10.2 and now in cm 11 that when in the car dock (with car mode on) the notification light blinks. I have confirmed that when you tap on the notification and turn car mode off, but keep the phone in the dock, that the light then turns off.
I have messed around in the notification light settings and can't find a solution. I have also hunted around to figure out how to disable car mode permanently since I don't use a car mode app or anything and can't find a solution for that either. Looked under All Apps to try to disable it there but it isn't listed.
Anyone know how to disable the car mode notification light or how to disable car mode.
Hi,
I regularly put my phone and Pebble Smartwatch into flightmode at work. This is always annoying, because I have to do both devices seperately, pull out the phone etc.
With Android Wear I'm hoping I can do it all from the watch.
This is the idea: a small app that I trigger on the Wear Smartwatch, it turns on Flight Mode on the Phone, leaving BT on and then puts the watch in Flight Mode. When I want to reacticate, I simply actuvate the app again, and it turns on BT on the watch, connects to phone and deactivates flight mode.
Are there apps out there that offer this?
Thanks.

Well, If flightmode is on, you can't leave BT on. And i'm not sure that any app can turn on/off the watch BT.
For the phone flightmode, you can use ifttt. Just setup an Android Wear button on "if" and a setting on "then". You should be able to turn WIfi & 3G network off with this app.
I've had my S7 Edge G935A since release date. I love this phone, never had a problem until yesterday.
So I left work placing my phone in my pocket checked the time after departing since the meeting ran late all looked good on my phone.
walked into my buddy's house wanted to show him a picture, and my entire screen was greyscale, I thought maybe extreme powersave got turned on in my pocket, so I swipe down to access quick settings, and they are all gone, the gear is there. I tap the gear, and settings comes up:
Wifi
Bluetooth
Mobile Networks
More Connection settings
Edge screen
Battery
Help
NO Other settings no way to swipe just access to those settings,
Click my list of apps and only the like the default gapps.
I have not rooted, or done any major things to the phone I did use adb to format the memory card as internal storage.
I searched google and only found options to turn on greyscale, but I had no access to accessibility in settings, no access to power saving mode.
If I restarted my phone it would come up in color then go greyscale.
I took it to AT&T they stared at it for 30 min before recommending a factory reset.
I didn;t want to but I didn't know what else to do.
Has anyone seen this, know what I did, or how to undo it?
It's fixed now I'm just wondering how it happened and how to undo it if I somehow do it again
Lol you just activated ultra power saving mode or emergency mode.

So how do you turn that off without factory wiping it, when it won't give you access settings or apps?
I thought Ultra savings mode too but couldn't turn it off because I didn't have access to settings

Emergency Mode Emergency
mode conserves your device’s remaining power when you are in an emergency situation. Emergency mode saves battery power by:
• Changing the color of the screen to grayscale.
• Restricting application usage to only essential applications and those you select.
• Turning off Mobile data when the screen is off.
• Turning off connectivity features such as Wi-Fi and Bluetooth ® .
Note: When Emergency mode is turned off, the Location settings may stay the same as they were in Emergency mode. Activate Emergency Mode To activate Emergency mode:
1. Press and hold the Power key to display the Device options window.
2. Tap Emergency mode > Turn on. • When accessing for the first time, read the Terms and conditions. If you accept them, tap the Checkbox, and then tap Agree. Confirm when prompted.
Turn Off Emergency Mode ?
From the Emergency mode Home screen, tap More > Turn off Emergency mode
This is what it was, but somehow I got the Google Now launcher while in emergency mode, so I didn't have the more option to turn it off.
Thanks I knew someone here would know

When you have either of the modes activated, there is a "more" button on the upper right of the screen (the actual screen area, not the notification). Press that and there should be a turn off option.
So I have been playing around a lot with bixby routines and thought of creating a thread to share our routines. Share yours. Thank You.
What are your routines, currently i am not using any. Let me know if anything is good.
TIA.
Here are some of my routines, so basically I just want to turn off mobile data, GPS, NFC, bluetooth when I am at the office and at home. Instead of triggering via GPS, I just use wifi connection to trigger this task.
Because of this covid-19 we have to use this govt app and keep it running on the background for contact tracing stuff, it requires bluetooth, data & gps to be turned on. So when I'm outside I need to keep these toggles on, to save some battery I want to turn it off when at the office & at home. For the NFC, I use Google Pay to ride the public bus & train, so I only need it turned on when I'm outside. For my jabra 75t bluetooth, I want its app to automatically open when connected, for the profiles & equalizer to work. During my sleep overnight, I don't want to drain battery, so I set it to medium power saving mode during that period.
I find this bixby routines very useful for me, so I don't need to toggle on/off every feature I need and don't need. My battery drains on standby mode much less especially during overnight because of the medium power saving mode.

Thanks for sharing. Even i am using similar ones. I haven't seen very complicated ones. I don't think they are possible yet.
Here are the ones I use.
Bixby has some great Routine options, but it could still use some improvement.
It would be nice if they add the options of Bluetooth is "not connected", or being able to run Routines in priority (set from 1 to 10).
Here's 2 examples using the options to achieve the same goal.
Example 1: DND (with Bluetooth not connected option)
"IF"
Time: 10pm to 7am
Power: Charging
Connection: Bluetooth not connected to "car"
"THEN"
Turn on DND
Example 2: DND (with priority option)
"IF"
Time: 10pm to 7am
Power: Charging
"THEN"
Turn on DND
"PRIORITY"
2
"IF"
Connection: Bluetooth connected to "car"
"THEN"
WiFI Off
DND Off
NFC Off
"PRIORITY"
1
I would prefer the first example as you would only need to create 1 Routine.
I use a Fold2 and run two routines - one to freeze the cover screen in portrait mode and the other to turn on secure wifi when I'm away from my home router.
What I'd really like is a routine that would change the 'Home App' depending on which screen I'm using - one for when the interior screen is open and another for when the cover screen is in use.
Have people found new good routines worth sharing?
I have a few. Using bixby routines+ extras from Good Lock, I have youtube music buttons to launch specific Playlist and automatically play them in shuffle using touch macros after a simple app launch. So, I just push one button and boom, shuffled chosen playlist playing.
Otherwise I just have a button to silence everything including media, and a button to set screen brightness lower and launch maps for GPS at night because the adaptive is still too bright and I drive a lot at night.
