Is there a way to disable sleep or standby mode on the sw2? I like how android wear is always on and I want that. I realize battery life will suffer but I just want to look at my watch to see it without having to turn it on.
Thanks

You can... What do you mean?

I would also be interested in this. Standby is too dim for my liking.
SW2 is alway ON with transflective mode (monochome) . Standby only when no movement so never when you wear it.
It have a mode with light ON and display color when press power or tap the case.

Yeah I'd like something similar where the watch was lit all the time without press, but I guess it's not possible.
It is always like picture 2.
It light up like picture 1 when press power or tap the watch. It is not possible to stay in mode light without drain the batterie in a few hours, maybe 8 hours.
But some app/watchface (the old and those for SW1) can stay in mode light.

Then difference of my battery saver with others is that users can custom their own way to save power to extend battery life.

Custom settings have nothing new except what can be done otherwise also. I mean:
Close WiFi
Close Bluetooth
Close Data Sync
Brightness
Screen timeout
all these settings are there already
Thanks anyways for taking your time out to build this app

Thank you for your advice. I will improve it.
Hi, I'm having a serious issue here. I unplugged my Transformer from my charger about about 11am today. I have used it, according to the screen on time in the settings, for 34 minutes. (it's now about twelve hours later.) However, the battery life is at 64%. I just don't understand this. My wi-fi is set to disconnect when screen turns off, and brightness is at about 55-60%. But look at this.

Does anybody have a clue what could be going on? If you need more information about what state it is in, I'll be glad to provide more details. It seems like this started after I updated to 3.2, but that could be unrelated.
After updating did you set up the wifi power saving again? There is a bug in android where this setting gets reset when the device is rebooted

Yeah, I double checked when I posted this and it was still on "when screen turns off".
Try using juice defender. And check your running services/applications/auto sync cuz i see there alot of wifi actifity and your device is awaken even though the screen is off.
You could try using an app called Sysem Panel by NextApp.
You will need the paid version so that you can turn on the Monitoring option in the settings - this allows you to monitor the CPU usage over 2h/8h/1d/3d.
You can also monitor Top App usage of CPU which is fantastic for identifying the culprit.
Should I worry about it?
Is there any "safe length of time" of keeping the screen on before you can get a burn in?
Rumor says someone kept his Tab 7.7 switched on overnight (probably charging) and he got his screen burnt-in
Now im trying to limit each usage to 15mins, then ill try to "refresh" my screen by tilting it or enter sleep mode
Thanks
Try keeping the screen on lowest brightness and hiding the status bar because it's static, you can do this with stupidIdea's Gmd hidebar application. Beside's that you should be fine and i dont see why you would have to use it for short period's.

I have this experience due to incorrect third-party screenlock app setting, but I didn't get any permanent burn-in on the screen.
Burn-in is usually a result of setting the screen to max brightness after prolonged period of time. Therefore it is a good practice to set the screen timeout for less than 5 minutes, and turn on adaptive brightness control (never push the screen to maximum brightness and forget about it like I usually do after watching movie and falling asleep).
I would worry about burn-in only if u forgot to use sunscreen

last night i slept for around 8 hours, before i slept, i had battery power at 65% left, i wake up in the morning to find 27% left! now i think that verrryy much for idle state as my wifi, edge, games, calling/texting and screen were completely turned off for many hours. i look up the battery stats and found that Android OS had consumed 51%. below is the screenshot.

somebody please tell me why is that? and how do i get more life out of my battery?
Maybe your phone only goes up to 9 hours...
Maybe it's kernel related.. Are you on custom rom already?
My Droid on a JB ROM has the Android OS consume about 90% of the battery and it dies after 8 hours of screen off time, airplane mode. *shrugs* if anyone has a solution id like to know.

This has probably to do with something that is running in the background.
your phone apparently doesnt go into "deep sleep mode" Only in this mode you lose just few % per night.
I recommand to shut off your phone, take out the battery for a few seconds, put it back in, charge it in one go, then turn it on again. See what happens.
You can, of course, sleep with the charger in.
Welcome to Android, for the most part, our battery life sort of sucks :/
Hi guys again
and this is my second and last apk, hope you enjoy it too

Simple and powerfull apk to TURN ON the screen in AUTO MODE:
Examples:
when you open the cover of your device,it should always TURN ON the screen, right?
when you take it out from your pocket/bag, the same, why do you have to push a button to TURN ON the screen?
simply bypassing your hand above it when the SCREEN is OFF
.... your imagination usage it is the limit(fliping it to turn ON,...)
It is based on PROXIMITY SENSOR mainly, and with an special algorithm to avoid FALSE PROXIMITY SENSOR changes, specially when inside pockets or bags(That is why it has a 1 second delay ;])
But if your device has also a LIGHT SENSOR you can also use it to improve acurracy to almost 99% when your device is inside your pockect or bag, avoiding falses PROXIMITY SENSOR changes an so saving your precious battery!!!
AUTO ON only works when you SCREEN is OFF!!so also save some precious battery!!! and do not intercept with Calls!!!
Due to so many diferents SENSOR TYPES on devices, the SENSOR RESPONSE maybe to slow, so a VIBRATE OPTION is include on the settings and it is very useful to "feel"the first times how your SENSOR works.
As with aZephyr, there is aINFINITE version(This Demo version is limited to 100 uses), so if you like it, and your SENSOR works as expected you can pay me a beer for my job ;]
Happy New Year
