Google Maps dimming - Xperia Z5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Got a problem when using Google maps for navigation with the screen dimming and then after about a minute the screen switches off completely, am I missing a setting somewhere to stop this happening? Thanks

Are you rooted?

No man totally stock, can you sort it if your rooted? Ta

No, i just wondered if you'd disabled some of its permissions using root. It's supposed to dim to save battery if you're just on a long straight road etc. Then when it comes to saying directions again and junctions it should light back up to normal

Ah ok thanks it dims fine but then the screen goes off...

Have you tried simply clearing the apps data and cache, force stopping it and then rebooting the phone before opening again?
Edit-
I'm just about to set off for work and gonna use maps actually so I'll see what mine does as I'm unsure I've actually used it on my z5 yet

Mine works as normal, tried and tested

Thanks mate I'll remove / re install and give it a try this morning

Getting somewhere still not as it should be though..
Got a stereo in my car that supposed to support android mirrorlink (it doesn't work) but what it does do is charge just like a mains charger, anyway what i've found when the stereo is in mirrorlink mode it switches the phone screen off, when i take the stereo out of mirrorlink mode the phone screen stays on, it is however really really dim just about visible i tried without the cable charging at all and still the same...
Thanks for the suggestions though if i can figure out how to have it not go so dim it'll be fine... (i would say it goes down to maybe 10% screen brightness maybe even less)

So as soon as you use maps to navigate whether it's on charge or not the screen just goes stupidly dim?
What about ticking the stay awake box and have it charging?

Yeah after about 10sec the screen goes really dim and stays like that...
Tried your above suggestion yesterday (thought it might work too) doesn't make any difference, i have ambient setting enabled in the phone settings i'll try disabling that on the way home see if that makes a difference and do some googling later on, cheers though...

Crazy thought, your case or car holder isn't simply just covering up the light sensor is it?

Well I'm confused but the issue is sorted turned adaptive brightness setting off screen was perfect, so 5min later turned adaptive brightness back on expecting screen to dim it didn't so no idea but seems sorted #bangheadonwall

Turn off Fully Charged notification

I hate that notification because I use my phone for my alarm and it lights up in the middle of the night. Has anybody figured out a way to turn that notification off? I have looked and not found anything on the phone or in the forums.
If you can't find a way to suppress the notification, do what I do...turn the phone over. If you don't have the Body Glove case that lifts the screen off the furniture and are concerned about scratches, put it on a paper towel or similar item to protect it. I use a wash cloth.
would also like to know how to turn that stupid notification off - software based and not using a towel though
I don't know much yet but I was digging around in root explorer and if you go to /system/media there are a bunch of .qmg files for battery related stuff, and two of them are named chargingwarning.qmg and Disconnected.qmg. Could one of these be the file for the fully charged notification?

Probably not because the notifications are all text, and QMGs are the 3d files used at boot-up. Most likely those animations are used in the battery meter that is displayed when the phone is off (turn your phone off and plug it in).
This won't help with the light, but the sound can be fixed.

It is confirmed fix in the 2.2 release - at least the JI6 build we are all playing with. They moved it to the notification bar.
Bumpage!
Been a lurker but just recently got my Captivate. Great forum here! Looking forward to contribute as well.
Well my issue with the "Fully Charged" battery notification is the display will stay on for the entire night. When I wake up in the morning, I see the phone's display on with the notification. Is this normal? I think this was happening just recently but I can't remember. Shouldn't the display turn off after the set amount time of inactivity? Thanks.
Nevermind, I figured it out. Within the development settings, the option to never allow the phone to sleep while plugged into the usb was checked. I wonder why that was checked.

Ok, I THOUGH disabling that option would put the display to sleep when the notification comes on but it doesn't. =(
Is this normal behavior? The screen stays lit after the notification is on? The only reason why i'm concern is if I'm plugging it in night after night and it's on that particular screen for hours at a time, there might be some burn in issues.

Not likely. It's not a rear projection tv or a CRT monitor. Burn-in problems died with those.

Guess you haven't seen some of the demo Captivate at your local AT&T stores. Seeing the burned in images on those beautiful SAMOLED screen just kills a little bit of me.
In any case, so it's normal for the screen to take on after the message notification comes on?

None of the models I saw had burn-in at all. I got my phone on August 30th of this year. The phone had been on the shelves since July. But I would imagine it's normal for the screen to come on.
I got my phone only three weeks ago, so the phone sitting on display has probably been there a long time. And yeah, samoled screen can get burned in. well guess I'll have to charge it during the day time for now until I can figure out a way to disable the pop up.
Oh my worry is that the screen might be in the on state with the same image for hours while I sleep. That's something I can't leave to chance.

As long as you're not using a Samsung Dock or have the Stay Awake option checked off in settings, it won't stay on. I watch my phone every night. It usually finishes charging long before I ever go to sleep (case in point, it's 3:11am, and the phone was done around 1am) and the screen always times out and turns itself off. It doesn't come back on either.

Ok, yeah that's what I figured. Thanks for confirming it for me. I do have that option "not checked". Something might be preventing it to fall back asleep.
Is there any log within the file system which might keep track of system events? I might have to do a little digging around.
Thanks for your input.

I don't believe there's any logs, but you might have some luck installing logcat from the market and checking that after one night

Charged notification PROBLEM SOLVED !
PROBLEM SOLVED ! NO COST !
I saw this suggestion in another forum and it WORKS, so I'm passing it on !
Set the global notifications to SILENT.
Set the notification on Gmail to any ringtone, NOT DEFAULT.
Set the notification on messaging to any ringtone, NOT DEFAULT.
You'll still have a tone when you 1st plug the phone in to the charger, but NO tone when it's fully charged.
Where are these settings? I can't find them any where.

Update or bad screen?

Hey people
Got my smart watch about 4 days ago and it was all good until tonight and now for some reason i can't see the clock anymore unless i press the power button :S i could have sworn it had a low light mode and the clock was visable ok but since tonight i can't see the time unless there's a light pointing straight at the watch. I hooked it upto the service centre thing and updated it through that but hasn't helped.
am I going mad here and just seeing things? :S
EDIT: i also noticed when i turn it off i get some weird colours appearing in the clockface some pinks/purples. i don't understand it was ok a couple of hours ago and it's been on my wrist the whole time :S
Did you try to reset the watch? Also our you have any custom clocks installed, remove them. As after reset, Sony smartwatch app will reinstall them on the watch, once the watch and the phone are connected.
On your watch, go to settings and tap reset watch.

Just to make it clear, you are not talking about the low power mode right? No backlight, but can be still seen by people in ambient light??? Maybe you should take a picture of the watch so we can clearly see what is going on.
At night my sw2 turns of the screen completely. But when I MOVE the watch it turns on the clock on the display. I think it has an accelerometer that turns off the screen when no movement is detected.

The same for me. I think that isn't a bug, but accelerometer
Inviato dal mio LG-D802 utilizzando Tapatalk
It is normal.
It is a feature to save battery when it isn't worn.
I am more curious as to the "watch (display) turns on from moving it". Does the SW2 have an accelerometer? My watch display doesn't kick on when I move it. Or was this a feature of the earlier SmartWatches?

I believe SW2 does have an accelerometer. Put your watch on a table, leave it untouched for while, screen completely turns off. Not even the low power watch mode is displayed. But once you move it, low power watch comes back on (without the backlight). I observed it many times when it was charging and when left at the bed side table.
But it is not utilized for backlight function. That is a missing feature people are asking for. But I don't really need it. Just like a regular watch, I press a button to turn the light on when I can't see it in the dark.

Wow... I didn't even notice the screen going completely black after sitting for a while. I am still on watch honeymoon, and either the watch is on my wrist or turned off and on the dresser. But sure enough, it does go into a deeper "sleep" mode and wakes up when I pick it up. Nice!
I do see that having it wake to the backlit mode would be nice but it would seem to kill the battery since when worn it would be in more constant movement. Unless they tuned the accelerometer to only wake when a more significant motion happens.

Yeah the previous iteration of smartwatch from Sony did not have always on watchface and it was a necessity. And to see the time you had to turn on the display. One way was to double tap on the watch screen to wake it up. Another way was to light up the screen by lifting your arm and turning the watch towards you. But the second way never really worked reliably.
But I don't think SW2 needs that. As we already have always on watch with great readability even in places where there little light.

So there is nothing on the screen not even the low power mode on the watch. I don't know what to tell you boss as you have already done a reset. Maybe one thing to check is to use SUS to reflash the firmware using your pc, if you haven't done it already.

[Q] Ok Google only triggering after moving phone off of charging

Running kitkat stock, with nova launcher, I've noticed that if I try trigger Ok Google voice search while my phone is charging, it will only actually trigger and launch the search after I unplug the phone from charging.
Has anyone heard or read of this behavior before? It's very strange and I can't pinpoint when it started happening.
Thank you
Bump! Still looking for some help.
To summarize, Ok Google is not working while charging. Works fine when not charging. Use stock Kitkat 4.4.4 with Nova Launcher.
maybe its a nova launcher issue
I've noticed when charging, the phone will wake/activate Ok Google about 1/10 times. When not charging, it's pretty consistent.
At this point in testing, it's random for charging vs non-charging.
Is anyone here using Nova Launcher that can chime in?
I don't think it has anything to do with charging. I will say "Ok Google" and nothing will happen, then I turn on the screen and it pops up. I think it has to do with the screen being off and the device being in deep sleep or something. After I wake it up and turn it back off though, it will wake up the screen with the hotword.
EDIT: After re-reading, I'm now thinking you mean it wont work at all even with the screen on?
Just tested, and off the charger/on the charger doesn't matter, it's for sure a screen on/off issue.
This is odd, as it used to work on my charger at night, screen off, responding to "Ok Google", now it will only work with the screen on. Just confirmed this with 10 tests w/ screen on vs screen off.

Randomly yesterday while screen off and charging. OK Google woke up my phone. I am very confused at what could be getting into the way at this point.
I have disabled Xposed Framework, which includes GravityBox, and will continue testing.
The issue boils down to this, on or off the charger, it is delayed response to OK Google. Any ideas?

Phone face down, rings, screen black...

If I have my phone face down on a counter when it rings, when I pick it up the screen is black. Not off, as I see some light, but basically dark.
I cannot see who is calling...can't get it to display.
This actually happens a lot other times. Just now, for example, I just picked it up, and turned it on with finger print. I placed it face down, and picked back up immediately...screen black.
If I happen to have it on and brush the screen across my side, it will go black.
The ringing is the realy annoying one.
Any suggestions? I'm thinking it has to do with something about the proximity sensor sensing the screen against something...but it should let it come on when it's not against something.
Is noone else having this problem? Every time my phone rings, it turns on but stays black. I never know who's calling unless I answer.
I don't know what to do with it. Very annoying.
Hoping someone has a suggestion.
You could disable auto dimming on your phone. Use Lux from Play store instead.

Do you mean Auto Brightness? If so, that is not the problem. I have it disabled and am using an app for brightness control...not automatic.
I cannot find anything in settings about 'auto dimming'.
Thanks for the suggestion though...
You're right. I mean Auto Brightness, it does Auto Dimming too . B.t.w. I don't have this issue.

I'm beginning to think I am the only one.
Another symptom which I am thinking is related. Sometimes when I touch my finger to the fingerprint button to wake the phone, it comes on with that dark screen for just a moment. It feels like the phone is busy, overloaded, or just slow. It will then come fully on. Also seems like maybe it is just in deep sleep and slow to wake up. If I turn it off and back on, it is instant.
I check memory and it always has just under 1.5 GB free.
I don't know what to think, but it is very annoying. I thought about chalking Huawei support, but I'm sureo they'd just say to hard reset.
I do have a lot of apps on the phone, but with that much free memory I wouldn't think that should be a problem.
Another interesting thing related to screen dark: I can have the setting for display to not turn off if no actdivity to 10 minutes, and it still goes off after less than a minute. (Going off is different from the topic of this thread where it is near black/dark, but not off).
I discovered this while trying to use Huawei backup. Thinking of doing a Factory Reset. Instructions say to not lock the screen, so I'm trying to keep screen on w/o my having to hold the phone the entire backup.
This overall topic is making me pretty unhappy with the phone, which I had thought was perfection when I started with it.
sigh...
I finally called Huwaei technical support this morning. They apparently know about this problem, and want me to send the phone back for repair. They expect me to be without a phone for two weeks while this is going on.
It speaks to the reason to not buy phones away from carriers, as anytime I had a problem with my Samsung, they would send out a replacement and then I would send back my old one and I would not have to be without a phone.
Pretty poor .
AN update In case anyone is following this for some reason...
Getting ready to send the phone in, I did another factory reset. I had got to wondering if maybe Gravity Box had been part of my problem. May be the case...not sure. But for now i'm not having the problem. I changed some of the settings on it when I reinstalled. I cancelled the return.
I've had the odd time when the screen is on, but not properly backlit. You can just about make out the screen, but then the backlight seems to rectify itself. It isn't just the Mate 9, but the P10 and probably other phones. Doubtful a hardware issue I'd have thought - rather a software glitch.
The P10 just got an update earlier this week (yet still with April security patches) but my Mate 9 hasn't had an update in months.

What benefits have you noticed from 9.5.7 OTA and what's still broken?

This is for a better understanding of where we are standing now. 9.5.7 was rather a significant hotfix, but did they deliver?
What benefits have you noticed from 9.5.7 OTA and what you think needs work still.
I already noticed pictures are more accurate on low light whlie also more popping and saturated in normal mode,
Also after receiving a phone call, the loudness and clarity could be told from 5 feet away without using loud speaker.
I wasn't really experiencing most of the other issues, so, what was fixed for you?
Ghost touches are fixed! As far as the camera goes... i haven't compared it yet, but people say its much much better. Ambient display was a bit buggy for me on 9.5.5. Sometimes it works, and other times it didn't, but after the update i am yet to see it not working. I really appreciate this update and hope for more improvements in the future.
Edit: Btw first time using a OnePlus device and im loving it so far. Only issue for me is lack of sd card slot when it has 2 sim slots.
Ambient display is fixed and camera has improved hugely, especially night mode... Huge improvement
Much better overall...
They claim to have improved touch response. Maybe better now with tempered glass protector.
Still difficult to pull down status bar while in a call.
Full screen games still got issues with getting statusbar visible.
A little more overnight drain... 5%... might take a few days to settle in again or something... don't know

Yeah I posted it on the OP forums the first week the phone started shipping out and I am using the RICE. Thankfully they offer a work around.
Ambient display still broken for Nova Launcher and I'm sure for others as well, when unlocking it goes to black screen and only nav bar. Which as been reported by others. When ambient display disabled everything works fine.
Takes about 5 seconds to take a nightscape picture, I canĀ“t hold my hands steady for that long, so using regular mode for night photos which actually works surprisingly well. Still would like to have the option though.
*808*# to calibrate promixity sensor doesn't work. Unable to open the sensor calibration. And the old pocket mode isn't in settings anymore.
Conclusion is that while being carried in my pocket screen goes on very often.
Anyone else?
Warp charged is borked for me since 9.5.7, it changes between warp, normal and no charging about every 5 seconds, my old 5 cable does the same but funnily enough warp charge pops up with it, and my 5 dash charger works fine. And once the phone is about 90% the issue goes away completely. Also a factory reset didn't fix it and I know for sure I didn't have it on 9.5.5 because my phone vibrates every time it switches back to warp charge (which happens a lot and repeatedly as well as the animation on the lock screen) and its never done that before. (here is my post on the OP forums for any that want more info: https://forums.oneplus.com/threads/op-7-pro-warp-charging-not-working-anymore.1051041/)
I didn't see the ghost touch issue on 9.5.5, but right after booting into 9.5.7 I saw ghost touches

Try charging while the phone is off, let the battery drain low, plug it for 1.5 hour. If it goes up to 100% in that time, then its not a hardware malfunction but an OS bug

did you debloat you OS? I did using tomato debloater, and with it some some of the calibration/ engineering mode went away as they where part of the apps to be removed. if reflashing your OS wont solve it for you, you might have a broken sensor

No, that's not what I wrote. Engineering mode app opens, but the calibration section doesn't work. It was working before. Someone else confirmed it to me in another thread.
