Pop up menu when turning sync on/off - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

I often turn sync on/off several times a day and each there will be a huge pop-up message explaining what sync is. First I can understand this, but dont want to see this each and everytime. Any way to turn it off?

[Q]Screen waking by itself?

My screen periodically wakes by itself (to the lockscreen). It doesn't seem to be the trackpad because I can't purposely reproduce the wake by sliding my finger over it or lightly tapping it. It seems to be internal. There are no notifications present after the wake. The phone shouldn't wake due to background processes, sync, signal search, etc. I'm rooted and on stock recovery. I do run SetCPU but that shouldn't wake the phone. What's going on?
I did a factory reset but installed backed up apps using TB and the problem still exists. I may have to do a reset without installing backups if this keeps happening.
Does anyone have any real insight into what could be happening?
Could be an app downloading, or maybe somthing thats constantly updating. Try turn that "refresh" toggle off, its on the power control widget. Then turn screen off and see if the problem persists. Also make sure have your security setting set up right. Make sure the phone locks IMMEDIATELY after you turn the screen off.

All my installed apps are set NOT to auto-update through the market so nothing would be downloading. If by "refresh" you are referring to the sync toggle, that shouldn't wake the phone. Sync doesn't wake. If it did, our phones would all be popping on randomly all the time. Security set up right? I don't use any security. Just the standard lockscreen. The phone locks when I push the power button. It just comes on sometimes without any other input. It's not waking to the homescreen. The screen is just waking to the lockscreen and will time out and shut off again by itself.
I'm suspecting either Titanium or DoubleTwist are acting funky.

Hibernation

Well, I tried almost everything.
I'm using a rom which have Hibernation active by default, but there is no option to turn it off. I searched in a lot of forums, but I found nothing. And I didn't get the answer from the developer.
The problem is: when the screen turns off, my wi-fi gets disconnected: because of that i cannot leave instant messaging programs in the background, like Nimbuzz or Skype.
Is there a way to fix that?
Thanks.
I'm on cm7 If I go to menu-wireless & networks then press the menu softkey and select advanced there's a setting for wifi sleep policy to turn it off.

Have you tried taking the battery out and putting it back in? That would turn your phone off.

Disable screen wake on notification

Has anyone found a way to disable screen wake for notifications? Every time I receive a new email or hangout message(Those are the two I've noticed so far) my screen will turn on. Driving me crazy.

Just tested it, I don't have screen wake on notification, neither with power plugged in, nor on battery. Also tried with with always on display, it only adds notification icon, doesn't even change the brightness.
Go into "settings" and turn off all notifications
it's also annoying that the screen lights up when the battery reaches 100% while wirelessly charging,
it lights up the whole bedroom.
This was driving me crazy. Came across 'SMS Popup' app I used years ago and it works like a charm. No more screen lighting up when a message comes in. Disable notifications in stock messaging app and enable in SMS popup. Unselect 'screen on for popup'. I like the popup options better than default messaging app too, you can configure the buttons and even have one that reads the message out loud.
Edit: After further testing, results are very inconsistent. Works great sometimes and not at all others. I have uninstalled and it's back to square one.

Galaxy S8 DND Keeps Turning On

This is driving me nuts. I have manually turned off many times but it keeps auto turning on during the day. I am missing important notifications. Is there a way to completely disable or fix this?
Any idea here folks? I have a hard time believing I am the only one.
Maybe Samsung sync is syncing previous settings constantly. Disable sync and see how you go? I've always had DnD on
What is DND?

Do Not Disturb (DND) is a feature that prevents notifications, pop ups, sounds during certain times such as at night when you are sleeping or during meetings. In my case, I have explicitly turned it off, yet it keeps turning itself on. I have a Smart Home with dozens of sensors, lights etc that notify me things happen but I am missing a lot because my phone is in a coma.
No solution to your issue but maybe some suggestions :
- you could use a tool like Automagic to log the time when this happens. Could give you some hint.
- you could even program Automagic to switch DND back off instantly when it turns on (dirty work around)
- you could factory reset / reflash the device and start setup from scratch (progressively) to determine if a specific app is responsible.

I stopped using DND because the settings within it were changing on their own. For example it would change from custom to no exceptions. In your case maybe you could use the custom setting to allow everything as an exception. Crappy workaround. I am using an app to control the sounds/notifications. That won't help you at all if DND keeps turning on.
DND keeps turning on
DND keeps turning on without being commanded too. At least twice today, and previously.
I thought at 1st I must have been turning it on by accident. I don't think so anymore. Are there any apps that will turn this on? Maybe I installed something.
