Night Clock Problems - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

When night clock is active on my phone it turns on and off every couple minutes. Anyone having this issue?

Mine does the exact same thing. I have timed it, 3 minutes on, 2 minutes off. It started doing this after the last AOD update....I just switched it off...real bummer

No mine stays on, are you setting it correctly (time on/off), i actually prefer the AOD and use that timed as my night clock.

Standby

I have had two or three occasions in the past, where my Cingular 8125 suddenly turned off. When I turned it on again, it would tell me that battery was critical, and that after less than a day on standby. Other days it lasts for 3 or more days. This morning I noticed tha the battery was low, and that the screen had not turned off over night (no backlight, but screen was active). What would cause the device not to turn off the screen completely?
I locked it last night and put it away. I may not have turned it off completely, but normally the device does that by itself.
Did you have a text or notification arrive over night?
Check settings > Sound & Notifications > Notifications > Event ......
I think if the 'Display message on screen' is selected then the device will not turn back off.

Screen Stays Awake

Hi,
The screen on my Nexus 4 has started to stay awake. I've noticed my battery drain a lot quicker over the last couple of days and I also noticed that every time I pulled my phone out the screen was lit so I've taken it out and watched it. It just stays awake all the time. If I turn the screen off the minute a message or anything comes in the screen wakes and stays awake so near impossible to keep it off for any length of time.
I do have the developer screen enabled and had stay awake whilst charging option enabled. I disabled that to make sure that this wasn't causing the screen to stay awake thinking it was somehow on the charger when it wasn't however the problem persists even with that option unchecked.
I have the screen timeout in display set to 30 secs.
Anybody else experiencing this or no how to solve?
The phone is stock and unrooted though I plan on rooting later today.

Does it stay awake but go very dim? I have this issue too.
can it be caused by the screen protector blocking the light sensor somehow?
Can you install BBS (BetterBatteryStats) and see what's keeping your phone awake?
Sounds like a FULL_WAKE_LOCK is constantly being imposed on your phone.
Questions
Is it only when you put it for 30s?
What's around your pocket when you put your phone in it?
Do you have any attachments onto your phone? e.g. skin protectors, cases...etc
Does this occur on any screen or just your home screen and the developer options screen?
Though some questions may be obvious, the best method is to be thorough with the situation. Answering these questions will help us better help you.
My phone shut itself down about an hour ago (plenty of battery left as I had to charge it earlier and was at 50% when it did come back on). It took several minutes before it would respond to getting turned back on again. I've got 2 messages since and the screen is now tuning off as it should. I had turned the phone off a few times to see if it rectified yesterday however that didn't work.
The problems wasn't anything to do with me having it in my pocket as the problem still existed when I had it sitting on my desk. I have no screen protectors or case and I never put it in any pocket that has anything else in it as I don't want to ruin too quickly.
So not sure what's going. All seems very odd. Hopefully not a sign that the phone is on the way out but looks ok for now. Will have to watch and see what happens over the next few days.
Thanks to all who took the time to respond. Hopefully I won't need to bother you again on this issue but not convinced just yet

Screen stays on after battery gets fully charged

Got a weird problem with my AT&T stock non-rooted S4. About 4 or 5 times since I got it on release day when I charge my phone and I get the notification that it's fully charged the screen won't turn back off. I use a Belkin Conserve socket that is set to shut off after 3 hours and I've woken up after charging to find the phone dead. I've managed to catch this happen once and when the fully charged notification comes on the screen won't go to sleep, it just stays on and flickers a little bit. For all but one of these instances I had blocking mode on so I'm not disturbed by email or text notifications in the middle of the night. It did happen one time when I didn't have blocking mode on. I use a pin lock for my lockscreen and usually have BeyondPod playing overnight (only one hour long podcast while it's still charging) if that makes a difference. Is the function that enables the screen to stay on when you're looking at it malfunctioning? Any help? I've attached two screenshots of battery life when this happens.

So in settings under the Developer Options, there is a setting "Stay awake" if checked screen will never sleep while charging. Now I see that your Belkin shuts off the power but your phones still detects the usb plugged into a power source.
I think things happen in this order: you hookup your phone to charge and shut off your screen, phone charges to 100% and screen lights up saying fully charged, it stays on because of that setting, Belkin kills the power, it is still hooked up to USB so ... you get the rest.
I would find that setting and disable it.
if your next question is "I don't see developers option" it is hidden by default in android 4.2.2 so to make it available, go to Settings > About phone and tap tap tap Build number seven times. Return to the previous screen to find Developer options. Or Indiana Jones might pop up and give you the cup to get eternal life !!!
Thanks for the reply Commodore64 but I already checked that setting when it happened the first time and it's not checked.
No one else has had this problem?

I have this problem as well as my wife's S4. around 3am, I notice our room is bright with our two phones' screens on. It will stay on until the morning.
In the developer's section of the settings, the stay on when plugged in is NOT checked.
Also, on our phones, we notice the phones overheating because the screen is on for hours at a time at night.
I've just spent an hour looking through the internet, and while many report this, they are simply being dismissed by others as in having "checked" the setting in developer section.
Also, when the batttery does get fully charged, the "Battery if full, unplug the power" notification also rings the default notification ringtone. I've installed phoneweaver to set my phone to no sound overnight, but it only stops the sound, the screen still stays on and phone gets really hot.
This is turning out to be a huge problem for us.

Do you use a PIN (number) lock? I did but switched to the pattern unlock and it hasn't happened since. Also, I've been trying to charge only during the day or evening, not overnight. Maybe, since I charge during the day and I use it periodically while it charges it doesn't go into a "deep sleep" like it would if it charges while sleeping and the full charge notification would keep it awake. I don't know exactly why but it hasn't happened since. Hope this helps.

Nougat: Charge stopping randomly / alarm clock sometimes not working

So i am not sure if this is a nougat issue or something else but recently i have noticed that when i plug my phone in to charge for the night i wake up and see that sometime probably during the night the charing stopped because the phone is at like 60ish % or so and not charging. When i unplug and plug it back in then it charges again normally. This dosen't always happen but from time to time.
Another issue i have been experincing also lately from time to time that my weekday alarm suddenly dosen't sound in the morning. When i go into the clock (google btw) then the alarm is set to on but the little alarm icon is not showing in the statusbar. Turning it off and on again it goes back to normal. But this is highly annoying if my alarm suddenly decides not to go off in the morning despite in the app it showing to be set to on.
Not sure if these issue are related to the nougat update but i have been experiencing these issues only recently (last couple of weeks).
Anyone else have similar issues?

Try different charger and especially cable. For the 2nd question - google alarm clock? Most likely the OS put it to sleep. Go in apps/power management and put the google clock into the exceptions, i.e. never to be put to sleep.
I got today some sort of call stuck, so no notification sound no alarm. I was late to work... Rebooted and sound appeared again. Nougat BTU.
