Does anyone know of a way to get the screen to shut off after the battery recharges? A popup box tells me to unplug the cable and the screen stays on until I hit ok. This irritates me to no end as I always charge my phone at night, so the screen stays on for hours. Any way to disabled the popup box our force the screen to time out?

I was just thinking about this, and I think I will use Tasker to turn off the screen when that happens.

I would also like to know the answer to this. That pop up is irritating in general.
Your screen doesn't turn off after? Mine always has shut off after about 2 seconds.

Same here, mine always turns off after that pop up.
Mine doesnt turn off either its annoying as hell and lights up my entire room. How can you manage this with tasker?

For other reasons, I prefer the option to leave the screen on while it's plugged in. So it doesn't shut back off once the popup happens.
Mine always shuts off after a period too. Do you have the setting on to stay awake when plugged in? Simple solution is to put your phone upside down when going to bed. I have to block LEDs on my computer, and its charger to sleep. My bigger annoyance was the sound it makes. I finally figured out that the System Sound controls that volume.

There is no solution to this. From what I read, Samsung changed it in Froyo build and put this notification on notification bar instead.
If you don't like it lights up in the middle of night, why you keep the phone wake while plugged in?

This is what I've resorted to as well, it's not perfect, but like you say, its really annoying to have it light up the entire bedroom at night. Fingers crossed its fixed in 2.2 like someone said.
In Settings >> Applications >> Development there's a setting named "Stay awake while charging" or something like that.
Does anyone with this problem, by any chance, have that checked?

Mine doesnt do that. The message pops up that the battery is charged and to disconnect the cable, but my screen doesnt stay on. Every morning when I get up my screen is off. As soon as I hit the power button the screen wakes up and I see the fully charged message is still there so I then hit ok, but my screen is never "On" when I first wake up each morning.

It turned out to be a problem with the AT&T JH7 update for me, actually. The screen would stay on regardless of whether that was checked or not (it actually re-checked itself as soon as I left the menu in JH7). Flashed back to JF6 and all is right with the world again. Thanks for reminding me about that option though, I was beginning to think it was some touchjizz quirk.

No such problem here with JH7.
Strange, I wonder why some people's stay on while some do not. If it were a "Stay awake while charging" option issue, then the phone wouldn't have shut off the screen in the first place when you first insert the cable.
What version of firmware are you guys having this issue using?
I'm on stock. Sometimes I actually miss when it's fully charged for an hour or two because it shuts off the screen after a few seconds.
Why not charge it with it off?

There are various reasons you may not want the screen to automatically turn off while it's charging. I would rather just manually click the power button if it's plugged in. I never rely on it auto sleeping the screen anyway. I just leave it charging overnight while I sleep so it turns on the screen when it's full and doesn't shut off.

Mine was one of the updates that "failed", but said it was running JH7 after reboot anyway. It actually worked well with noticeable improvements in GPS performance; apparently that screen problem was some side effect though. Who knows :\
No LED and nothing on screen?
crap, i knew i'd be missing notification lighting but i forgot this applies to charging as well... d'oh...
still excited for mine to be delivered tomorrow... the wait is killing me ... sorry for not having an answer
shortly pressing the power button will bring up a screen animation showing how much of the battery is charged, found out by accident actually!
Actually if you want to see the charging process indicator, press one of the volume buttons to temporarily turn on the screen - this is much better than the power button method as we all know if you hold the power button down too long, the phone boots - undesirable when you are calibrating.
I get very inconsistent results with either button. How do I know when it is done charging based on that green battery indicator?
I just noticed this as well, while the phone is powered on there is NO way to tell that it is charging, or how far it is? all previous phones had at least a small LED that went from red, or orange, to green. This has nothing.
So only if powered off, you can check. lame!
It's a game, you guess how much it's charged and then you turn the screen on to check if you were over or under.
I'm not being smart or anything but why would you turn you phone off to charge it? The only reason I can think if is not wanting to be reached while sleeping or something but at that point you can just silence your ringer.

I bought mine and it's turned off, so there's your answer. I have no way of knowing if it's even charging or anything.
What does it take, .0003 seconds to hit the volume button? My HD2 has all types of notification lights. I never go by them. If I'm looking for notification of something then I usually have my phone is my hand. Very simple to turn it on.

The phone isn't able to be turned on. I just bought it an hour ago and since it's completely dead, I can't turn it on to check anything, nor is there an indicator of if it's even getting a charge. Or I have a bad phone. Either way, it's not exactly a great design.
*It just turned on finally. Guess it was beyond dead when I got it.
Boo hoo. Who cares? You soul knew this before you bought it, our should have

Your soul knew it before you bought it? Wow! My soul hasn't mentioned this to me yet.
I've had two occasions today where the phone doesn't want to wake, and holding the power button down for any length of time does nothing.
Probably something related to GPS, as I think I left Earth running the last time.
I do wish there was an LED, or a capacitive button left on, or SOMETHING.

What are you talking about, if the phone is on just press the power button once and it says "Charging (XX%)"
I know because i'm charging mine as i type this, currently at 88% charged...
^what he said
Here's my tip for this:
Clock.
Yep, Clock. Tap it, then hit the button in the top right if you want to dim the screen.

Negative.........
When the battery is fully charged a small screen pops up telling you your battery is at 100% and to unplug the charger.
There are some apps n the market that will put a small light on your screen for charging, email, text, ect.
I seem to have run into a problem with the battery in my phone lately. Every time I charge the phone, and sometimes when it's not charging it will turn off. Just randomly no real cause. I don't get a text, or anything. I just pick it up try to unlock it and am greeted with the white HTC screen. This would lead me to believe that I have some kind of short near my battery causing it to not transfer charge across the contacts when its in a certain position or something along those lines. I've also turned it on while it's plugged in and the red LED that says it's charging is on, and the phone said that it had 0 battery left and shut down. I then plugged it back in and turned it on again and it did the same thing, but this time it charged for about 30 seconds, and then the battery was at 100% again. Leaving me going WTF is wrong with my phone.
I'm using a CM7 kernel with Gingerbeast if that helps.
Basically I want to know if anyone else has had this problem, and if so what can I do about it? Also if I did anything wrong or could do something that would help like flashing a better kernel or something advice on that would be much appreciated.

I.read a post once that quoted an HTC Rep. Went something like this...
"Unplug phone and Reboot. Plug in charger and charge until LED shows green or full charge. Unplug. Power off phone. Plug in charger until LED shows green or fully charged. Unplug phone. Reboot. Use phone. Power off. Plug in. Charge until LED shows green or fully charged. Reboot. Your device should be fully charged and battery reset(?).
Ok first off, halfway through when you robot and use phone. You probably won't get a chance to use as the phone may/ should shut itself down and show no battery. The HTC rep did not clearly state that or.it was lost in translation.
Secondly, after it shuts.itself down, let it charge fully. It should not take too long as your battery is already charged. Then reboot and let it run its course. Then fully charge again.
Alternatively - you can download current widget to monitor your battery and also see how much current it is drawing and know when it is fully charged. Even tho your LED is green and battery shows full, it will.still.draw current gradually for up to an hour or so. Very nifty .... Hope it helps!
And a search for these topics will.probably yield much more in depth info....

Did this problem exist on stock ROM?
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA Premium App
I seem to have reset my battery on my own as far as I can tell. I basically did the process you described just without knowing.
This problem did also occur on stock rom. It hasn't happened in the past week, so I think it's fine. I may reflash my rom and kernel soon for good measure.
Also sorry for not replying I've been away from civilization for almost a week.

uh oh this is how my problem started.
I hope my problem doesn't turn into that. It seems fine now it hasn't done it in a while
Since performing the ICS ota, I have been getting random alert where a large (2" x 1") battery icon displays in the middle of my screen for about two seconds. It emits a tone, then disappears.
Has anyone seen this?
Does anyone know how to disable this?
I've been getting the charging battery pop up when docking and plugging in the charger, but so far thats the only thing to cause it, its just a charging notification I think
I do not have a dock. This is driving me crazy. There doesn't seem to be any logic to it happening.
Its probably just a battery reminder, like when it gets to a certain level it reminds you so you can plan ahead if your away from a charger. I don't know this for sure but that would make sense! I don't see any option to turn it off, maybe in a future update or custom rom!

Picture of alert
Here is the alert that I get. Completely random. Doesn't matter what app, battery level, etc.
Has anyone else seen this? HELP!
That icon appears when you plug the tablet in to the charger, it lets you know the battery level and it plays a chime. If it's not a software fault, might be something with the charging port. Maybe it's defective and it's detecting a charger plug that's not actually there?
Thanks. I think it has to be software related. It happens without anything plugged in. Frustrating! It also never happened on honeycomb.
battery icon screen
I see the same thing when I plug in to charge.I have it plugged into the wall first then plug into transformer.I think it is just letting you know it is charging because I don't have it powered down.

The problem is that I do not have the charger plugged in when it happens.
charger icon
do you see it when plugging it in to docking station? my does for a sec when i link the keyboard to the tablet but go away ..because the docking station starts charging the tablet.
I can confirm I also get this. It really is annoying and random. I'm yet to find a pattern to it.
The tablet is not on charge. It is not docked. Just the tablet.
Current battery level is 73% and the battery icon has flashed twice whilst writing this. There are different icons signifying different battery levels. Full, mostly full, nearly empty and running low... I've seen them all.
Does anyone know of a setting that would stop these alerts?

Hello all,
My wife's Sensation has a problem.
The phone is rooted, and sports the Revelation 1.0.3 Sense ROM.
My wife probably left the battery drain too much, and now the phone don't work anymore.
What happen is, she plugs the USB charger into the phone, and the notification led starts to blink orange and green, alternatively.
The worst thing is that the battery is not charged.
I tried to reboot the phone, remove the battery and reinsert it, without success.
I have no notification or message incoming, so no, that is not the problem.
Anyone here can help me?
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Giovanni

Hello, and thank you for the answer.
But, how can I charge it if the battery is disconnected?
And what is the reason to "charge" the phone without battery?
I'm not arguing, I'm trying to understand.
Probably I missed something.
