No standby when charging not working on wireless charger? - Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge Questions and Answers

I have activated the switch "No standby when charging" in developer settings to keep the screen on during charging. The phone keeps screen-on when connected to USB-Cable no matter whether connected to charger or to PC. So far, so good.
But the screen switches off after the time set in settings when on wireless charger, which IMHO should not happen, as the phone is charging.
Could somebody confirm that this happens not only on my phone? It's a bug in my eyes, but I'd like to know wheter it's standard.
Thanks in advance

My Sprint version calls the option "Stay awake," but it works the same way yours does. When charging wirelessly the screen does time out.

I translated my german captions, so my european version might call it the same in english. Thank you for confirming that this behaviour is stock.

[Q] Wireless Charging on/off pulsing at night

Hello again friends!
On my phone, see sig for details, I have noticed whenever I place the phone on my QI Pad, while it does charge, The 'power source' is reported as AC, instead of Wireless. I believe this to be the cause of my problem of at night, when full charge is reached it chimes to confirm full, then drops 1%, so chimes to start again, and repeats.
I tried holding my QI Receiver (After market) to the terminals on my friends S3 I9300 and it showed up as charging Wirelessly, Can anybody tell me what in my phone tells the ROM what the power source is ?
And If they know a fix for what im experiencing. for example, if this is kernel related, any recommended kernels that support 4.3 ? c:
Thanks heaps in advance

I'm using the stock Samsung charger with a third party QI receiver module in my S4. It's correctly identified as a wireless charger when connected, but the problem with intermittent charging at night that you describe still appear. I believe this problem is inherent to the technology. However, I "solved" it by deleting the charger connection sound as well as using Tasker to completely dim the screen at night. This way I'm no longer bothered.

I can turn off the vibrate and sound nd screen on in settings, But I wanted it to identify correctly so I can use Tasker, and Daydream, only when on wireless.. :c
Im thinking it may be Rom specific.. in which case Ill ask my good old friend i've never really had direct contact with Vertigo

Won't charge with external battery pack with screen off.

Hey guys,
Been a long time xda member, been busy lately with working in phones for work so haven't had time for here much, but needed to make time for this. I have had an issue with 2 different battery packs to charge my Galaxy note 3 while the screen is off. I have already contacted both companies and neither have heard if this issue b4.
Both will charge the phone up to 1mAh. I have charged my phone in a .7 mAh charger just fine. I am currently using freeza's knox removed rom 2.25b with stock kernel from the rom.
Is fast charge the culprit? Not a huge issue for me at the moment as I use daydream with ultra low setting so it charges fine that way but as soon as I turn the screen off it stops charging.
Anyone have any ideas or run in to this issue themselves?
Donyou happen to have lockscreen security enabled? Password, pattern, etc?
If yes, try setting the lockscreen security to swipe and see if it works.
The reason I'm mentioning this is because the USB connection is turned off when the lockscreen security is enabled and the screen is off.
It doesn't affect a 2.1a charger as that's recognised as a charger, but anything below 2.0 ampere is seen as a USB connection, and not a charging connection. Hence, it doesn't work.

Actually, I already had it on swipe as I like to change the dpi and the screen looks funny at 380 with it always maximizing widgets.
I did try and turn it completely off to test that and same result, with screen off and with the batty packs it won't accept the charge and they turn off, screen on they work fine. Also works fine with a .7 mAh wall charger screen on and off.
I have same problem. I got 2 ports 1amp and 1.5amps but note 3 stops charging after 25 seconds .battery works with other devices. I am sure there is a process that stops it but how do we find it.
got another charger low amps that works, laptop gives 0.5 car usb 0.5 all work except the external battery.

Display on with wireless charging.

Greetings. I'm new to these forums though I have visited numerous times to find fixes to various issues. I have rooted my Note 3 with towel root and now have Lollipop 5.0 rooted installed. I was hoping to install the Xposed framework in order to finally be able to kill the screen turning on with wireless charging problem. I wake up at night to my phone screen turning on and off as it cycles through charging and charge full notifications. I have installed "Headsoff" app which has killed the issue with wired charging and does prevent the sound notification with wireless charging but the screen still turns on. I also installed "App Ops," went into System UI and turned off Post notification per someone elses recommendation. Again, this seems to only apply to the wired screen on with charge function. When I tried to install Xposed framework, I learned it won't install on Android 5 without writing new code in the OS? This seems highly technical and risky to me as I am not that savvy with writing code. I have searched the forums and find many postings complaining about this problem and the best fix seems to install Xposed which seems hard to do with Android 5. I would greatly appreciate any input about how to solve this. Perhaps going with a custom ROM? Any recommendations? Thanks.
Developer options ON?

Settings -> Developer options -> Stay Awake?

Thanks for the response. Unfortunately, I've already tried that and have confirmed the "stay awake" fnt in developer options is turned off. Also, this is only happening with wireless charging. I have a wireless charge base next to my bed and also have one in my car. If I bypass wireless and directly hook up the cable, I have no problems. Very frustrating.
I am still hoping for help with this problem. I have searched and just don't find an obvious fix. I keep waking up to my display lighting up briefly. Once it starts, it cycles every few minutes; on/off. I don't know for sure but think it is the charge full/wireless charging cycle. It doesn't buzz or make noise as I have killed the sound notification. However; I can find no way to prevent the display from turning on. I found an app called "Screen Stay Off" which is supposed to prevent this. Unfortunately, it doesn't work. It causes the screen to flicker on/off rapidly, then the screen turns on and stays on. Frustrating. I am open to using a different ROM if no other solution. Thanks.

I have an s4 with a wireless qi receiver attached to the battery terminals. It also cycles through charging/not charging and it doesn't seem to matter how full the battery is. Sometimes, it will charge for 10 minutes and then just stop charging. Removing it from the charging pad and putting it back on will not charge the phone even though the receiver is detected by the pad.
I have a qi receiver on order for my note n900w8 and hope to have better luck with that than my s4.

Thanks. I haven't noticed a problem with charging. Mine seems to get into this cycle only after it achieves full charge. Then the "full charge" notification comes. Phone stops charging and starts discharging. Then when it drops to ~ 98%, it starts charging again and I get the "wireless charging" notification. After root and going through various settings, I have killed the notifications that used to pop up; "Full charge, please disconnect the phone from the charger" and then "wireless charge detected" notifications. However, I can't prevent the display from lighting up. If changing out the wireless receiver fixes your problem, please let me know. I wasn't thinking the receiver might be the cause, but at this point, I'll give it a try. Last night I capitulated and plugged the phone in directly to the charge cable and bypassed the wireless charger. I have no issues that way. Why wireless charging functions differently is a mystery to me.
With my s4, i tried 3 different wireless pads and only two of the three would detect the receiver and charger sporadically. One of the wireless chargers was a google nexus wireless charger. Hopefully, I will have better luck with my note 3 when I get the receiver from eBay. I got two note 3 receivers with nfc from eBay but neither of those receivers would work with my sm-n900w8.
My nexus 4 and nexus 5 which have built-in wireless charging receivers, works perfectly with all three charging pads without issue. They charge fully and don't give me messages that the battery is full.

Display keeps turning on while charging

Hi does anyone else have an issue while charging the phone where the display keeps turning on every 10 seconds and then turns itself off?
Bill
No. It sounds like a third party app is causing that.
To check, boot into safe mode and try again.
That happens with one of my wireless chargers. I guess when hits 100% then drops and back to 100% Not sure if your using wireless or not.
I was not on a wireless charger, on the other hand I was on my old HTC changer that I have on another room. Was not doing it from what I noticed with the Samsung charger.
*** tried a different HTC charger and it seems to have stopped turning on, wonder if that HTC charger is throwing out different power

Or maybe it's got a short in it. My car charger was doing this on and off this morning. And I can tell the wires going into the base are going bad.

Yes I have this issue! I just bought this phone a week ago. I've been using the fast charger included with it. Every time I charge with the fast charger, no matter if the phone is on or off, the display will turn on and off every 10 seconds or so like it keeps getting disconnected/reconnected from charging. I tried charging my phone with a regular phone charger and the display no longer turns on and off. What's going on?

Yes, been having this issue as well (happened before I rooted). Only happens when I use my old HTC chargers, doesn't happen with the included Samsung fast charger, or a 3rd party wireless charger. Have tried turning off fast charging in Settings, disabling the Stay Awake when charging option, and charging in Safe Mode - makes no difference. Would be great to know what causes it!
Yes I'm having same issue! Only when I use my old HTC charger! Any other one it doesn't do this! Would love to know a resolution!
Its the older chargers, like the HTC, not having sufficient current for the S7s bigger battery.
Probable solution
I had the same issue with my S7. A week after buying it the display kept lighting up randomly during charging. I switched chargers to an older Huawei and the issue went away. Last week the issue came back. I tried blocking apps but it did not work. What worked for me was clearing the USB cache. Settings > Apps > Show system apps > Enabled > Search for USBsettings > Storage > Clear data and cache. PS - This also works if the phone wont charge due to moisture detection.
I had the same issue with my Samsung S7 Edge while charging using one of my dual monitor's USB Port. I just switched to another USB Port and it stopped doing it.
Weshp, thanks for your very specific answer. It seemed like it was working (my phone stayed off for a longer pause), but after about a minute, it started coming on and off again and when I check, there's data in the USBsettings again. If you have any other ideas, I'd love to know.
My Galaxy S7 has been doing this on and off for a long time. I suspect the cause is overheating because the battery is charging too fast. The lower power chargers won't charge as fast so they won't heat up the battery. If I'm wrong, I'd sure like to know how to fix it.
I can't find the path to clearing the cache so I haven't tried that.

S9+ Wireless charging problem, PLEASE HELP!

Hello,
My S9+ has a problem when using wireless charging, the phone will auto unlock.
Does anyone know the reason for this or it's just me having this issue?
:silly:
If you mean does the screen come on, then yes. However I still need to swipe to unlock.

What phone case do you use?
I not sure if your phone case has a magnet it may effect with wireless charger, because wireless charger use electromagnets power
Did you change the "Developer options" menu? There are "Stay awake" mode, and the screen will never sleep while charging.
Also, it can use "Face recognition" when you look at it
Any case that is not official and is more than like 5mm thick will affect the wireless charging abilities of the S9+.
Having root will stop the option to enable fast wireless charging appearing in the accessories section (In fact on g9650 Accessories no longer shows in settings after root is active - at least in my experience).
Paid 2500 Pesos Argentinos for my Samsung Wireless charging stand, didn't even come with a cable in the box and is Micro USB so my USB C won't run it. Very disappointed in this and the strength of the charging cable in general, but the cost and treatment of consumers in Argentina is not the greatest anyways.
Edit: I rescind my comment about the Accessories section not showing, this was my own stupidity. Also, changing the USB cable of the fast charger to a different one has solved the fast charging issue.
Still think for the amount of money that was paid for it a cable should have been included
