I have power save mode powered on at 20%. It works, but now i recharged my phone back too 100% and is seems that the power save mode is still on.
All the things that will stop working (ringer, brightness) are still deactivated at 100%. Even with power save mode OFF it wont go back.
Is this a issue or am i doing something wrong?

I've noticed that every time the phone enters power safe mode, there is a problem after that.
Next morning after the phone is charged, ALL settings regarding power safe mode are still in effect (wireless is disabled, brightness is at the lowest, etc)
In my opinion, once the phone is fully charged , those power safe settings should be reverted to their original state, BEFORE they were activated.
Because they do NOT revert, and you have to manually put them back the way you want (and how they were before power safe is activated) is a poor design.
Is there a solution to this problem, so they automatically revert once power safe is deactivated?
Has anyone else notice that their M8 is noticeably less responsive when the battery gets low (usually under 15%)? I am aware that the Verizon model does not have the extreme power saving mode feature; however, I noticed something funny. When the battery is low and I go into developer options to turn on high performance mode, it lets me know that I cannot due to power saver being on (see screenshot). When the phone's battery is not low, I do not see this message and I can enable high performance mode. My guess is that the phone is entering some sort of power saving mode automatically when the battery gets low because I notice that it lasts quite long on low battery and is less snappy.
Fast start to finish here. But I'm running custom so.

Can anyone else on stock replicate this issue or did I just get a defective M8? Thanks!

It honestly sounds like power saving mode is kicking in. Which does at 15% on stock if power saving mode is enabled ( not extreme power saving mode just the standard one)
If something weird is going on and it is not providing you with a notification that it is what's happening, next time it happens look at /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/scaling_max_freq if it's at 2265600 then it's not in power saving mode, however if it's at 1190400 then power saver is on. Other signs of power saving mode would "normally" be
Display brightness reduced
Cpu reduced speeds
Vibration feedback turned off
*data connection put to sleep when screen off
Edit:
Turned my power saving mode on and I also can not turn on high performance mode. So I bet that is EXACTLY what's going on.
last edit,
if you have root you can launch the power saving settings ( even tho the option is not there under the power sub menu vzw left all the code in)
to do this from terminal emulator at # am start -a android.intent.action.MAIN -n com.htc.htcpowermanager/com.htc.htcpowermanager.powersaver.PowerSaverActivity
this will launch the settings for power saving mode, and from here you can see if it is set to on, if so just turn it back off.

Thanks for the reply, I agree with you on that one, I'm pretty sure power saving mode is being turned on somehow. I'm not rooted and on stock, so I don't have a toggle for power saver mode. Any idea how it could have turned itself on? Aside from rooting, is there anything short of a factory reset that I can do to get rid of it?

Well I would first ask if any of the things I said happen when you phone goes below 15% such as
Display brightness reduced
Cpu reduced speeds
Vibration feedback turned off
*data connection put to sleep when screen off
Some of these you can check without root. Like the screen gets dim or the vibration turns off. If so then let me know.
Theoretically a factory reset would clear it. However you could try to clear data from the settings app.

+1 on Power Save coming on.....I am on Viper so I see it is turned on at 15% with the quick settings, so I tap it to turn it off (which I know there isn't a stock equivalent)....but when it is on...the phone slows like a turd.
So, I am on the Stock U11 ROM unrooted and on Android 7.1.1.
The phone was charging by my side, on my desk.
It reached 100%, but I did not unplug it.
I had the keep screen on while charging setting, turned on.
After about 30 minutes it turned off. I noticed the green notification light (fully charged indication) had turned off.
And when I checked, the phone had turned off. By itself.
Now I am trying to turn it on, nothing happens.
I try to hold the power button (for ~30 seconds) to force a reboot, nothing happens.
Can anyone help me. It is under warranty though. So, I will contact HTC about this. But I wanted to check if there are others that faced this same problem.
Thanks
Try power button and volume down

I tried that, no good.
I tried Vol Up + Vol Down + Power too. No good.
I'm using my tablet as a car navigation device. I may leave my car parked for up to a week sometimes.
Ideally, I'd like to turn the device off when I stop my car (cable unplugged or screen off) and then turn the device on when I start my car (cable plug in, screen on). Since it takes a while to boot up (and I don't know how to autoboot when the cable is plugged in on a LG g pad 8.0), I don't want to actually turn off the tablet.
Therefore, I have installed "Automate" to enable airplane mode when screen is off and turn off airplane mode when screen is on. I also have Greenify and enabled Aggressive Doze. However, even doing this, I notice that while the screen is off, the phone will still come out of doze periodically. Also eventhough airplane mode is on, Gsam Battery stats show the phone radio is on the entire time (but not data).
Is there a way to force it to doze and not wake up until I tell it to?
Also, for some reason, as it keeps going into airplane mode and back out, I will get a message saying the sim card has been removed and it will force me to reboot. If I don't go into airplane mode at all, I dont get the message. It's only from switching it on and off.

The battery was dying quickly, when charging it overheated the phone. She always used the phone until the battery hits 0% and it turned off. This time when she put it to charge the phone heated and it didn’t appear to be charging and the phone didn’t turned on.
She went to a phone repair center they changed the battery but the phone didn't turn on.
When I got the phone force reboot, combination didn't work until I pressed Vol Down + Home + Power for 10 seconds (I think I entered download mode) the phone led turned solid white with black screen but the phone didn't do anything I did number combinations for forced reboot and didn't work until the battery runes out and it turned off. Try to turn on the phone and it doesn’t.
Any ideas what is happening?
