Any tips on wearing s3 while sleeping?
First night I wore it, no problems. Second night and the battery completely drained. I had just finished charging it so it started at 100%. S health shows data for four hours.
Thoughts on what could drain it so fast?
Non-LTE model, AOD on, brightness at 7.
You need to change your settings before you go to bed!
Turn off wrist gesture.
Turn off AOD
Set brightness to 1/2
I also set do not disturb between 11pm to 6am
It would be nice if there could be an app where you could schedule all these settings would save you having to do them before and after sleep??
Thanks, don't forget to shut off sensitivity setting. I forgot that I was playing with it yesterday and left it enabled.
You would think if they can detect when you are asleep it could automatically turn on dnd and set the screen to off (only turn on when a button is pushed). No need to schedule anything
Personally I'm not sexually attracted to my watch so I would never think of doing such a thing.

Is there a way to Schedule Always on Display OFF at Night?
It would be great if you could do this or find an app??
I massively extend my watch battery life, by doing the following:-
During the day Always on mode set to +7 brightness. Wrist gesture feature enabled
At night I have setup Do Not Disturb between 10pm and 6am. Always on set to off. Wrist gesture feature disabled.Brightness set to +1. So at night to see time you have to press the top right button.
Trouble is I have to go through a ritual of selecting these settings before going to sleep and when I have woken up - it would be nice to have these settings scheduled????

You can optimise it a bit: with do no disturb mode on, the gesture is automatically off. And put the brigth to 1 is also unusefull, as you have to wake it up manually and very few times at nigth.
Anyway, I am with you. I have asked several times to Samsung to add a nigth auto mode based on schedule (I have S2) disabling AOD and enabling do not disturb, with no action by them.

Hi,
Are there any news?
Heard something about Tasker for the S3.

I am considering switch from Huawei to S3. Huawei automatically switches off the AOD if being laid for a while.
Does Samsung do this?
The S3 will turn off the screen and cancel notifications the moment you take it off your wrist.
I like to use the sleep tracker but like others when it comes on at 2 AM it's like a flashlight in the dark. It would be nice not having to turn the display down to 1 every night.

Hi,
since yesterday i have a HW2. Usaly im a wearable user like miband, garmin, Fitbit...and brand new in the android wear universe.
- there are no "nightmode" ?? Do not disturb and shut down your Display between 10pm and 6am setup?
- there a no sleep tracking per default? I try sleep as android. But that lights the display all the night with "Sleeptracking" - and in the morning there are not data
- no altimeter, no barometer per default? (see it on the S3 frontier per default)
A lot of questions and not enough answers

On the clock screen pull down a little shortcut menu that contains airplane mode, sound, theater mode (turns the display black until you press the power button), do not disturb, settings.
There are no sleep tracking. There is though a app called "sleep as android" you can download as you mentioned.
Barometer and altimeter can be showed in some watch faces
Thanks. Today was the second night that sleep as android crashes after 4 minutes on my OP3
Yesterday i had to charge the HW2 2 times - that a but to much. Have to optimize that thing.
Today i try it at my desk. Sleep as android crash after 3-6 minutes on my handy. Dont no why. This log-logger from the faq dosent make a file. Very anoining.
Heart Rate sensor while a bike round. Im not sporty. If my wrist is wet....i get ~70Bpm. If i try that it shows me like i feel. 140Bpm and more. Go ahead and my wrist is wet again....plays start from the begining.
The first 10 Minuites are NOTHING...till the time i dry my wrist.
Today after 11 hours I had only 15% left of the watch. But it was down to 40% before I did a 20 min run with endomondo on the watch and listening to music with bluetooth headphones while running. I also hade a sim card in the watch and the display set to always on. So it was heavy usage. But I did not run for long time..
Air pressure/Barometersensor look not calibratet or whatever. Here we are at 1022hpa, whatch show 1009. Yesterday 1020hps - watch show 1009hpa
Hi,
I received my Asus rog phone 5 just over a week ago, but I am having issues with DnD. I have 2 schedules. 1 is from 20.30 to 5.40 for work and another is 21.00 to 9.00 for the weekend. Both were originally transferred over from my Samsung note 9. The problem is that DnD will start at the chosen times, but for some reason that I can't work out, it will just turn off. When I go back into DnD settings the schedule are there but DnD will not turn on. DnD will sometimes put the sound mode back to normal and recently it is going into vibrate. There is no warning, the icon for DnD will just turn off and no other problem will jump up from the phone. It just turns off. I do run sleep cycle but having that on or off doesn't have any effect on what DnD does.
I thought there might be issues with the transfer from my Samsung so I deleted all schedules and set them up again. Same issue. There is no exact time that I can tell when DnD turns off, but my Fitbit normally warns me around 21.00 that it is time to wind down. But Fitbit isn't the problem as I have seen DnD off before 21.00. I'm normally in bed before 21.00 so it's very annoying to be woken up my notifications when I'm almost sleep.
I've even tried digital wellness sleep schedule and the same thing happens. It turns the whole bedtime mode to off.
Last night I setup DnD to turn off only when I select it and turned off all schedules, but this morning when I woke DnD was off.
My phone has all the latest updates.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Hi. I noticed that SmartGesture drains battery heavily here and there, even if I turned off all gestures like "raise wrist to wake up" and "accept/dismiss call" .
Usually I get 40hr of battery life on my 40mm non classic. Yesterday evening it had 58% and it seemed to hit the 48hr lifetime record. I switched on bed mode and energy saver. Then I set my alarm and start sleeping. No snore detection but blood oxygen measurement activated.
10 hrs later I woke up and my watch was drained completely empty. No alarm, I woke up very late by myself. What a mess!
I noticed when I turn off all gestures, I have a good battery life but after a while the app SmartGesture starts eating battery. Then it is first with up to 20% battery consumption in power management. When I reboot the watch, it's okay again for a while until it starts eating battery again.
When I activate all gestures, especially wrist to wake, it occurs not so often but it does.
I hate Smartgesture, Is a no-go to oversleep because of its battery drain.
Any ideas what I can do? I'd love to clear data and cache from smartgesture but that's not possible.
Every now and then, I will be fast asleep when all of a sudden, my watch starts vibrating. I wake up and check the notification, which effectively states, "Hey, man! Were you asleep?"
So I dismiss the notification and go back to sleep. Just as I am finally nodding off again, my watch starts vibrating again. This time it reads, "Tap here to find out why sleep is important."
At this point I'm thinking, "My watch can sleep in the microwave... Do this to me again and I'll turn it on!"
...My watch stays silent for the rest of the night.
Anyway, is there any way to disable the god awful sleep detection? It has never worked properly anyway. My watches life depends on a solution.
I have a different issue with sleep detection. When I fall asleep during travel, either in car or train, my Galaxy Watch 4 doesn’t recognise my sleep. Is it the same of all or should I adjust some setting?
