[Q] Screen on while charging

I have done some searching around here. Either I'm a total no0b (there is a chance for that) or it isn't posted here.
I just flashed to Serendipity 5.0 and some other roms before that. None of the roms I've flashed had this option. It was only in the stock rom.
Is there a way to keep the screen on while charging?
Thank you.

I believe that was only a 2.1 eclair option.
I've never seen it in any of the 2.2, 2.2.1 ROMs that everything is based on right now
Captisent via XDA App

Kind of what I thought.
I was wondering if there was an app or something that I didn't know about that would be able to do that. Kind of like what was done to keep the lights on for the menu keys.

I haven't seen that option in any of the 2.2 or 2.2.1 based ROMs that I have tried, but the program (and associated widget) that I used with stock for this function still works and keeps the screen on - not just while charging, but at least you can trigger it on and off easily.

What app are you using for this? I use the "Screen On" app, but I'm not quite a fan...

I use the app "Screen ON Widget" as it's called in the market. I don't actually use the widget, I just keep the program shortcut handy and it toggles on/off with a notification bar icon... no reason to be notified by a widget too.

Gingerbread notification widget?

Does anyone know of a gingerbread notification widget exists? You know...the one where it lets you turn off bt and wifi and stuff...if so please attach...

IIRC, they're already built in. When you choose add to home screen, choose widget > settings > pick what you want added.

Is IIRC a rom?

IIRC = If I Recall Correctly
theres one called Widgetsoid its on the market. its a PITA to setup. so also download status bar settings to help you set it up.

Stuck notifications.

Phone tried to download facebook but network was off. Notification still shows downloading. Notification wont go away.
I tried rebooting...uninstalling and reinstalling app. Still wont go away.
What can i do?

It still shows it as an active download right? Tried clearing notifications with the X (rather than swiping away)? What happens if you tap on it?
Sent from my GT-P1000 using xda premium

There is no x on it. Clicking on it closes the notification window. It doesn't do anything like bring me into the market.
Do i need to clear an app's data or cache?
Does it make a difference that im on tweaked 3.0?
Sent from my SCH-I510 using xda app-developers app

My wife's phone has the same issue. Tweaked 3.0. I don't use Facebook, so no issues with mine.
I suspect it's a Facebook app. problem, but I haven't had time to dig into it.

Any ideas? what have you tried on your wife's phone? Maybe together we can figure it out.

I got it. This should work for you:
Go in to Settings
Select Applications
Select Manage Applications
Select “All Apps”
Select the ‘Facebook’ app
Under ‘cache’ – click [Clear cache]
Clear Data – click [Clear data]
Go back to list of Manage Applications
Select the Download Manager
Under ‘cache’ – click [Clear cache]
Clear Data – click [Clear data]
Reboot if you feel the need.
Good luck!

Rememo, you da man. Clearing the data in download manager got everything back to normal. Thanks much

Notification toggles?

Is the any build.prop edits we can do to add some more notification toggles? I know on my note 3 there are a few that could be added.

You could always use the app called power toggles to add some more. It's a great app I used to use on my moto x that had no toggles at all

I like the toggles samsung use. Just wondering if I could add any. I remember on the note 3 that they didn't have the WiFi toggle but we were able to add it in by editing build.prop along with a few others.

This app is really for sprint users but it will enable all available toggles except for flashlight.
You will lose the flashlight toggle. You can delete the app after enabling the toggles if you wish.

Thanks but u think I use the flash light toggle the most. I guess I could install it then add flash light back in build prop

You could try this. I enabled all the toggles with the app. Edited the provider settings database in system/data/data and got the flashlight back. Here is mine if you want to copy it into yours. Just take the folder out of the zip and copy it over.
Oh, I also changed the scroll limit from 10 to 31 for all toggles

Awesome thanks

If mine doesn't work for you, use the app to enable all, then use a SQL editor and open the system/data/data/ com.android providers settings folder, databases, settings.db ,then system folder, and go all the way to the bottom. Add TorchLight; to the end of all the others. No need to do anything else. I copied my folder to the internal SD card, edited it, then copied and replaced the one on the root drive and rebooted.

It worked perfectly. Torchlight toggle was there. It played with some of my sound settings so I had to change it back in settings. Guess I'll have to go through my settings and make sure things are how I like it but that's no biggie. Thanks again!
Edit: I first copied the hole com.android.providers settings in cause I don't know how to follow directions lol. Once I copy just the database and rebooted I was good to go.

[Q] Choosing toolbox crashes settings

As title, I'm running 5.02 (Netherlands) on a P900. Everything is pretty good and I can switch on toolbox but if I actually select toolbox then settings crashes. Any ideas?
EDIT: Did a data wipe and that fixed it. Wiping the cache did not sadly.

Same thing happened to me, after going to the notification panel and switching it on from there, it stopped freezing and is working like normal

Same problem with my US version and 5.02. I did a Wipe Cache and that didn't solve it. Also, I don't have the tool from the notification panel, just in the Settings. I am not ready to factory reset.

Try just turning it on, then let it force close, hold the toolbox, then go up to edit, then it should work from there

1. Turn it ON
2. Press and HOLD and drag it UP to edit
3. You will find a list of apps. Choose 5 favorites
4. Click DONE.
5. Go back to the settings, and you will see it active

Thank you. I can confirm that it works now.
I think it's the initial set up that's causing it to crash. Once you have one app on the toolbox, setting no longer crashes when pressing toolbox.

Well, I did figure it out in the original post
Looks like we have a way that doesn't involve a data wipe now though, so that's better

Thanks, this worked.

Wish I would have read this before I did a hard reset

Oh, that's what those 3 dots are!
Thanks, Yoshi! I've been trying to figure out what those 3 Dots were once my Note Pro "downgraded" to 5.02.
I'm having crashes with Toolbox as well. Once I followed your instructions, the 3-dot icon had the apps I picked. Then I realized this was "Toolbox". Of course, a little documentation about what was being changed by version 5.02 would have been a great help. But it seems like it costs too much nowadays to create documents along with hardware/software.
But why would I need Toolbox when I've been using Slider Launcher app for a few months to do the same thing? And Slider doesn't have the 5 app restriction of Toolbox as well.
Now if I can only get my Logitech Pro keyboard and the Samsung keyboard to work like they did under 4.4, and the S-Note widget to show all my notes ... well, here's hoping 5.03 will be soon coming and enhance my tablet instead of degrade it.
