Stop wake on plug/unplug (not rooted)? - Sprint Samsung Galaxy Note5

Is there any way to stop the Note 5 from waking up when you plug or unplug the charger? I had a similar issue on my old S4 that I was able to eliminate, but that phone was rooted. I have not rooted the Note to keep Samsung Pay. Any suggestions?

I've done some search on this a couple times and haven't found anything. I'm curious on this even if there is a rooted solution (I am systemless rooted so I can use Android Pay).

Isn't this phone waking up, when you plug or unplug charger a natural thing ?
Just the way devs planned the device to function or is it really an issue.

For me, the wake up is a hassle. For example, every time I set my phone on my wireless charger, the phone wakes up and I have to turn the screen back off so it will charge faster. Also, when my alarm goes off in the morning and I disconnect the phone from the charger, the screen comes on and lights up the room until I can turn the phone off again. I would like to avoid both of these scenarios.

Same for me. I have a wireless charger by my bedside and I hate that it comes on when I put it on and take it off. Especially since I get up way before my wife and just want to grab my phone and not turn it on until I'm out of the bedroom. I can't believe they don't make that an option in settings someplace.
edit: The no wake on charge option in this xposed tweaks app works. http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.smartmadsoft.xposed.aio Though have to be rooted (no Samsung Pay and running Xposed)

Thanks, worked for me!

Sorry to raise this from the dead but is anyone aware of a non root way of achieving this?

[Q] Point of irritation, any way to time the screen out after the battery charges?

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?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
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 :\

Trying to charge phone while it's off automatically turns it on

I noticed today while I was trying to get maximum charge in minimum time that after I turned my phone off and charged it, it automatically turned on. After I noticed this while it was still plugged in I shut it off again and much to my dismay it turned on again!
I'm on the HTC 7 pro, anyone else confirm this issue?

Phone will not turn off if USB charging/syncing; must use AC charger. Another alternative is to buy a second battery & wall charger specific to that battery; I have this setup for my Samsung Focus, but use it infrequently.
Would you mind testing something?
Turn off your phone, plug in the AC charger and see if the phone automatically turns on automatically?
Then if it does turn on again shut it down again while it's still plugged in to see if it turns on automatically again.
Thanks, I'm trying to see if this issue is unique to my device so I can report it as a bug.
Windows Phone 7 works this way. I was a bit surprised too, but the explanation from MS was that the charging circuit in the phone is software-controlled, and in order for that software to run, the phone must be on.
Yes, I know anybody with a modicum of software design experience knows how lame that sounds, but that's the "official" explanation. You *cannot* turn off the phone while it's connected to external power.
The good news is that while charging, the WiFi is left turned on, so if you have a WiFi connection, you're not using 3G data in this scenario. That was my primary initial concern (but not the only one).
Brad.
So since it's software controlled it must be possible to disable it through some option.
if you disable it, you will lose an option to charge the battery...simple as that
I guess this is yet another feature I enjoyed with WM that I can't (hopefully yet) enjoy on WP7.
I don't understand why you would make a purely hardware thing like charging into software...
Well, I don´t really undestand why is it such a problem, you can still turn the airplane mode on, this way there will by no cellular transfer, and put phone into sleepmode, if you do this, what do you think, by how much slower you would have your phone charged compared to turning it off? 5 minutes? Well that´s an achievement...
I wish I had two identical devices and I could run an actual test on this but I can only use my old TP2. I've always been under the impression that if your device is charging while it's off that it charges much faster than if it is on (consuming power) and trying to charge at the same time. It's always made intuitive sense to me that that's the case.

unless there is some sort of software based charging optimization involved.

Stay Awake

Alright, so I used to have a T-Mobile Samsung Vibrant (3G). The "Stay Awake" (while charging) setting would keep resetting itself to not stay awake while charging. I figured it was a ROM bug or an SD card bug or whatever...
So I just got a new Samsung Galaxy S 4G, I'm using the Audiophile ROM (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161553), and the "Stay Awake" option still won't stay on. Every single time I restart the option resets itself to not stay awake. Anyone have an idea what's going on or how to fix it?
The display setting in settings go to something that has tk do with backlight timing and just put never

I'm just curious, why would you want to do that? I'm not a battery expert, but your battery should theoretically charge slower while your screen is on. Aside from probably prolonging charging time, keeping your screen on while your charge might even heat up your phone too.

Unfortunately that would leave the screen on all the time, not just when plugged in.

Mostly for in my car, I have a dock, car charger and audio over radio device. Having to do a passworded unlock to change songs is fairly dangerous while driving.

In the Market, get Caffeine. Works great. No problems.
why is this in the themes/apps section?
I can't speak for radio, but maybe Car Home might work for music.

[Q] How to prevent shutoff upon battery removal

So, I've just gotten my G3 and ordered a spare battery as well. I went to swap batteries while plugged in, but as soon as I pulled it out the phone shut off. Is there a way to work around this? I'd love to be able to live-swap batteries (while the phone is plugged in, of course), and I know I'd probably need root access. Any recommendations as to turning off the shutdown procedure, as well as general advice about rooting, would be more than welcome. Thanks!

It's not really possible. I haven't seen a phone able to work while plugged in with no battery since before Android was popular. And that wasn't even a smartphone.

keep it plugged in. somtimes it works sometimes it doesnt. mine did the last time i tried it but i try not to do it. will probly work better if its plugged into a computer as phones like to boot by themselves when plugged into one.

Keep Screen off when plugging in charger

Is there a way without ROOT to Keep Screen off when plugging in charger? My wifes s7edge turns on when its plugged in or put on the wireless charger and then the screen goes off and only lights up once when its done charging... On my Note 8 I noticed at night that my screen keeps lighting up every 3-5 minutes or so telling me the battery is at 100% So annoying!!! Why do they not have an option without root to keep the screen off so its not flashing on and off every night?!?! Anybody know a trick or a setting I'm missing? Is it the fast charging option? Haven't tried turning that off yet... Small but annoying problem...

Seems like when I turn off wired and wireless FAST charging it eliminates this problem!!! YAY, who needs fast charging going all night right?! So just enable and disable as needed in device management, battery, menu advanced settings and toggle as needed if this is an annoyance to you!:good:
