anyway to stop wake on charge? - Samsung Galaxy S8+ Questions & Answers

everytime i attempt to charge the phone the screen wakes up, is there a option to turn this off at all?
gets annoying after a while.

In Developer Options turn this command off. Stay Awake.

I think he means that when he bugs the phone in or puts it on a wireless charger the lock screen lights up.
I'd be interested if there was an answer as well.

yeah when i plug the charger in the screen turns on and i have to press the side button to turn off the screen again, gets irritating after a while especially when you have a app open.
i'll try that dev option and see if that changes anything.

just enabled developer mode and the option is already turned off so the issue isn't related to this.

Can't it simply do what previous Samsung phones did before? You plug in the charger it makes a sound that it's charging and that's it? What purpose would benefit anyone by waking the screen when the phone has started charging anyway? All it does is irritate the user as they have to keep pressing the side button each time the phone is left to charge.
It seems the only way to disable this is yet again root and there doesn't seem to be any other way, not even a app at least..
???
Waking the screen while charging each time is dam meaningless.

The screen should time out and turn back off or am I missing something?

No, you are not missing anything. I agree, there is no reason for the screen to come on upon starting to charge as you have an led that tells you that. It is just ANNOYING!

Yes this is annoying and I am still looking for a way to disable it. Not only does the screen turn on when I place my S8 in the cradle, when the screen timeout kicks in, the screen wakes again when the wireless charging does its animation of how much percentage is left.

Try "All My..." it contains no wake on charge. If you use wireless charging then I would reconomend using a charger limiter like "Battery Charge Limit [ROOT]" to minimize heat.

Screen won't turn off when charging

I got a problem with my power settings. When I leave it on battery, my screen dims and shuts off as normal. But when I plug it in the wall charger or car charger, my phone only dims, but does not turn off the screen. I have all of my settings right in the settings menu. I also tried 1 min dim/off on power and it did not work.
Anyone know why?
Thanks in advance!
Settings>Power>Advanced>Backlight on power.

Yes I know that =P But like I said, I have ALL my settings correct in my Settings Power Menu. It is checked on 4 min dim -- 5 min off.
It still does not turn off.
Does anyone know if there is a registry where I can check? I knew it on the S710/S730 because I had to do it since there was a backlight bug.
Thanks!

Does Anything Run in the Background While Charging?

I'm new to the Infuse and the Android world, so this might be a silly question.
What goes on behind the scenes while the phone is charging? There has to be something running in the background that affects sleep mode because it's the only time when I can wake the phone using the volume buttons -- something I'd love to be able to do persistently (I find it a little cumbersome using the power button all the time).

In Android, charging always inhibits the deepest sleep states. (Charging is a permanent wakelock until the charger is removed.)

Droid Mini Screen won't timeout when charging

Is anyone else having this problem? When the phone is charging if you use it the screen won't time out you have to push the power button to shut off the screen. When unplugged works just fine. I did reboot into safe mode and still same problem so this isn't a 3rd party app issue. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Unless this is "working as intended" lol
Ok nevermind, it was as stupid as developer options --> Stay away while charging being a default option. Dumb.

[Q] Wireless Charging - How do I keep my screen turned off?

Stock S6 (T-Mobile, 64GB, White). I have two different QI chargers (one is the TYLT Vu Wireless Charger (Qi) and the other is a CHOE stadium). The phone charges fine with both chargers, but the screen keeps turning on while charging and I can't seem to find a setting to disable this.
As soon as I put it on the charger, the screen turns on, so I hit the power button. Usually it turns back on within 5 seconds, so I hit the power button again. It will then stay off for a while, but if I wake up in the middle of the night the screen is back on again. Any ideas what is causing this?
I have noticed that the screen tends to turn on when I get a notification or when the "searching for GPS" pops up on the lock screen, but in both cases the display will dim but it will not turn all the way off.
Edit - forgot to mention that I get the same results regardless of whether or not the phone is in a case.
I got the same thing with portable battery packs... very annoying.
Also mine keeps getting off and on all the time.
Strange - my screen turns off fine if it's plugged charging via USB. It's only wireless charging that has issues on mine.
The screen always wakes up when it starts or stops charging. Do you have the developer option turned on to leave the scree on when charging? If so, when it wakes up at the end of charging, it will never turn back off. If you don't have this option enabled, then I don't have a good reason.
Thank you thank you! I just enabled developer options (after accidentally finding Flappy Android) and the "keep screen on while charging" option was turned on by default. Doing a test charge now, but it appears as if the screen is staying off.
Awesome!

Any way to disable the "auto screen on" when plugging in USB?

Is there a mod for this somewhere? I'd love to stop the screen from coming on when plugging it in to my PC, my car for Android Auto, etc.
Even if you find a method, I'd recommend keeping it enabled, as it is currently the only way to know that power is flowing to the device. Without a charging LED or activation AOD, the phone gives you no indication of its status and could leave you frustrated the one time you plug it in and the other end of the cable isn't properly inserted.

I've had it on my phones in the past and LOVED it. I don't really need any visual indication of charging, I've never had any problems with plugging it in and it just charging.
