Same here.

Use macrodroid app, not sure why it was removed in the first place.

Has anyone found out if this a new feature or a bug of the LG update to Oreo? What i found out on LG support site, shows how it used to work. I can't find a way to turn it on automatically.. :/
https://www.lg.com/us/mobile-phones/VS985/Userguide/026.html

Oreo doesn't have Auto Battery saver mode. This is not a bug.
When your phone reach 15% he auto enters in the Battery save mode, but cannot be configured manually like in old android versions...
Only way to "somehow" config this is using Tasker (for instance).

Update Weather via Wifi while asleep

Hi,
I have a small question / issue regarding my Elf...
I use SPB phone profiles to set a time based profile at night (3am to 4 am) with Wifi enabled during that timespan. I also checked the wifi while asleep option in advanced configuration tool. I was hoping for a automatic update of the weather etc... during the night in order to have it updated when i wake up. The problem is that the phone does not wake up at that time and thus never updates... It only begins the update when i wake it up manually at 6 am.
Is there a way to force the phone to wake up during a specific timespan ?
Thanx
yeah I'd like to know this too, any updates?

Note 4 Power Saving automatically turns off

Hi guys,
Having an issue with my Note 4 (SM-N910F) international version since the MM 6.0.1 update. I received a further update after the MM 6.0.1 recently and thought the issue would've been fixed but alas, no!
Current version of Software: N910FXXS1DPE7.
Issue is, I have power saving mode turned on and set to: Start power saving "Immediately". However it keeps getting turned off and the screen becomes bright and I could not recognise a pattern how this occurs.
Things tried so far:
-Unticked automatic brightness and dragged all the way to low.
-Smart stay was/is never ticked.
-Auto adjust screen tone is ticked, but unticking that and also leaving automatic brightness turned off still causing power saving to automatically turn off.
-I have tried to check for this issue in Safe mode and it still happens.
Any ideas of what could be causing this? I do not want to do a factor reset for this issue and if it can be avoided after all. Safe mode is somewhat similar isn't it?
I have noticed the issue occur when I start using Gmail app (not the Inbox one), but that is just one scenario.
It seems like the light sensor gets triggered when it faces bright light and turns off power saving mode and screen becomes bright, but just could be a red herring.
Thanks a million!

I have just one problem like yours. When i receive Marshmallow i just update. But Power Saving turns off every reboot. Just back to factory settings and make your wipes. I solve this with wipes and factory.

Thanks. Yeah I am trying to avoid factory reset because can't go thorugh the process of installing apps, setting up all the various accounts etc especially since there is no built in fully restorable backup feature. Family man with kids and have enough IT stuff to do at work.
I'm on stock/non-rooted device also. And this will be my last Samung device, if not the last Android!
I understand you very well. You can use HELIUM apk to make your nandroid backups without root and make easier this tedious work. I don't have rooted my phone but helium makes all faster that, and i use also wondershare mobile go for android and PC.
I hope this helps you and you can resolve your problem. Good luck and regards from Switzerland - (Mexico)

Thanks Tavok. I did download Helium and wanted to test it out, however my phone is now staying in Power Saving mode since a few days! I have done nothing new, didn't uninstall any app or change any settings as such for it to work. This is bugging me because I want to know what fixed it so that I can re-apply the fix again if need be.
I've also read that some people are complaining about Note 4 getting stuck in Power Saving mode and I hope this is not the case with mine, now that it seems to work as expected.
I will update this thread once I check it out further.
I found out how this power saving mode gets turned off. It is the Location settings. If location is off, the power saving mode stays on (this is what it was set to hence I didn't see the issue happening). But when I changed it back to High accuracy, I started to notice the power saving getting turned off from time to time when using certain applications that require Location accuracy.
This is a bug since the MM update!!
Any ideas how to use Location accuracy and still retain Power saving mode?
I did a factory reset and the issue persisted! I tried various location settings(of the 3 choices) asks none of them helped. When set to any one of them power saving automatically turns off after a while I.e. when location needs to be detected. The only workaround us to turnoff location altogether but that messes with the auto sync of accounts! Grrrrrrrr
I verified with Samsung Tech Support that Location and Power Saving are incompatible on the Galaxy Note 4, even with the latest Android version available for the device (6.0.1) . In other words, Turning on Location while Power Saving is active will disable Power Saving after a short period. Fortunately, the problem is fixed on later devices.

50% more battery tip on Wear24 (and other LTE AW watches) -> ~3 Days /w Min Usage

so i have been seeing REALLY crappy battery usage on my wear24 on aw2.7 despite turning off alot of things and barely using any apps.
now i EVEN have always-on ambient , and my watch lasts almost 3 days. since its always on, i rarely need to use the watch (eg. wake). i use the Sleek face which shows my agenda , weather, date, various other info on my face all the time so i just look at it. and incoming messages are shown still. here is what i do:
-KEY THING: AIRPLANE MODE! eventho i turn off LTE in connecticvity, i dont know if its a bug, but it's super annoying it keeps coming back on. this is the #1 change that improved it IMMENSELY. i think this turns off alot of useless wake functions and sync'ing
-turn off wifi (auto still keeps searching)
-only use BT
-delete msg+ / my verizon
-turn off OK google / tilt to wake
- no gestures
- no location
-turn on always on
One more thing if anyone can figure out, the watch auto turns on battery saver when under 10%. i'm curious if we can force this mode when its at 100%.
How did you delete msg+ / my verizon? With "adb?
Thanks,
Rob
update to AW 2.7, u can disable via system apps
turning off every thing is not called smart, better buy a normal watch then
I'm not going to try all of these things, but I have noticed that it re-enables the cellular radio. I'm going to try putting it in airplane mode and just keeping the bluetooth connection on. My only issue is, is there any way to get rid of the airplane icon on the watchface?

I believe rebooting the watch is what turns on the cell signal. Mine stays off until I reboot. You don't need to turn on airplane mode to turn off the cell signal. I was going to write an app to do this automatically on boot, but can't unless someone finds a method to root it.
For the always on feature, the watch face actually changes to a different face from the one I set. It's like a screen saver version of the face which I am using. Is there any way to fix the face throughout?
And how do you guy update to 2.7? Mine updated to 2.0 and it says it's the latest version.
And where is the setting for the power saving mode? Mine enter power saving at 15%.

You can disable the charging display by going into app settings and disabling the charging app. I never found a way to keep the screen lit up while charging even with the always on enabled so I wrote an app to do it. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.turndapage.watchwake

You're taking about ambient display. The app that sets your watch face controls that. Some have settings for this either on watch or on phone, some don't and you can't change it if you're using that face. I use watchmaker, which lets me edit every image layer in my faces and select which parts stay on. Also can create layers only visible in ambient mode.

got adb over wifi going, got the apk from apk mirror (the watch specific wear apk), then did something like
adb connect 192.168.0.102 (or whichever ip your watch gets)
put the apk in the directory where my command window was
adb -s 192.168.0.102 install -r wearapp.apk
BUT, this is not necessary anymore. 2.8 just installs automatically now from play store on the watch.
You can just block message+ in the notifications screen, and install messages from play store

I just got mine for $43 on eBay and it went from 93% down to 2% on a single reboot. It then stayed on 2% from 6:30pm til 6:50am when it finally died. So I charged it from 0% to 59% then it jumped to 100%. Then it discharged to 77% and then dropped to 43%. sounds like a calibration issue.
On the plus side, unlike the moto 360 it appears the back is actually screwed on instead of glued on which is great news. I may unscrew it when I get home and see how easy the battery is to access.

My phone turns on wifi automatically. How to fix?

Recently, i bought a Korean V20 F800L and received Oreo update. But every night, at 23:00, it automatically turns on wifi and keep i will have new notifications when i wake up.
I go to bed at 22:00 and always turn off wifi, close all recent apps before that. I think it may be something relates to Sync, backup or update but i couldn't find it.
Is there any solution for this?
Check settings-> smart settings and the configuration you have there.

nothing turned on
I don't have oreo yet on my V20 but I don't think that settings have changed that much so try to check at
settings->apps->configure apps->special access->modify system settings
There you will see the apps that have the authority to change your settings. Check the configuration of these apps one by one to see if something is set for the hour that the wifi changes to on.

S10 shutting down

My s10 shuts down when I sleep mode my phone
Sleep mode? Like how do you put your whole phone in sleep mode. You can only place individual apps in sleep mode.
Sounds like the battery needs replacing. It is common for ones that are not actually holding a full charge to show as a higher percentage than they actually are.

You might want to try doing a factory reset and fresh set-up (not from any backup including Google Cloud). You could have accidentally enabled a setting that automatically shuts down your phone which can happen in Bixby Routines, the battery settings and probably other places in One UI given how many software features Samsung throws into their phones. If you don't know where to look the easiest thing to do is a factory reset--but if you don't choose the fresh start/new device option when setting up your phone you could end up restoring whatever is causing your problem.
I don’t think the S10 has been out long enough for your battery to be going bad unless it was defective.
@jhs39 has a point, one option is in general settings/ reset .. last option... auto restart.
