Every time I plug my phone in via USB or place on an inductive charger, the screen turns on. I never want this to happen. Is there any setting or hack to disable? I blame OCD for not wanting to wait for the screen timeout. I tried using Tasker to set the display timeout to the minimum value of 7s only when on any power source, but it still timed out at the system setting. I have a rooted Droid 4 with the stock ROM, but this applies to any Android phone.
This doesn't seem unreasonable. If you set your phone down to charge, doesn't that mean you're done using it for now? This is difficult to search for, because the same search terms lead me to the "stay awake while charging" threads.

I'd like to know if there's a solution to this too. I find now that the only time I ever end up pocket dialing is when I take my phone off my charger, THINK i've pressed the power button to go back to sleep but didn't and thus pocket hilarity ensues
I know what u mean but there is defnetly a function where it may be disabled
ive seen it i may guarantee this
the bad thing is i forgot where...
i searched through my stock rom and found nothing so i guess ive seen this in a cyanogenmod rom :/
have a try
Its funny, because I'm trying to do the opposite. I installed my android tablet [novo 7 elf] into my car, and I used to be on a ROM whereby whenever I turn the engine on it would charge the tablet and therefore the screen would turn on. However now I've got a jellybean port this functionality does not work because of the sleep timer which has a max of 30 mins.
Any ideas on how to disable this functionality?

If you're screen always stays on while charging, then try this:
- goto SETTINGS- Developer options - uncheck "stay awake while charging"

That's not what he's looking for.
The problem is when the screen turns on when you plug it in.

Indeed.
Am looking for the same thing. really hate the fact that when it goes in the charger I continuously have to turn off the device.... not cool.
Hopefully someone comes with a solution.
only thing for now is use Locale and a plugin screen off (.99 cents) which will probably turn off the screen if you plug it in. haven't tried it though.
Maybe the "charging now" notification is what wakes the phone up when it begins charging, and maybe that notification can be removed somehow, but I know nothing of how those are set up in the background.

FYI, I tried this again since upgrading to ICS on my Droid 4, and it totally works. I just set up a Tasker profile: When Power=AC or USB, Display Timeout = 7s. It shuts off in 7s when on my inductive charging pad, and the system setting of 1 minute when off the pad.

Sadly, it's two dollars, but this seems to be what you're looking for.
Option 1:
Install Xposed or other, I don't remember clearly...
Option 2:
With Tasker
-Power: Any AC
-System Lock
why it isn't possible to disable it without xposed?
know this is an old thread but just curious if there is a way to not have the display turn on when it reaches 100% while charging?

Old thread again but in Nougat, it's Settings/Display/Wake on plug, Disable.
Well now this thread is even older :*)
There is a app named "All My..." it contains no wake on charge. It should be a former xposed app that work on most phones so feel free to try.

2021! Still looking for this.
2022 and it's ongoing. Who would want the screen to turn on when plugged in. On an LG phone you even get an annoying buzz which cannot be disabled even if in silent mode.

I know there's supposed to be an option under applications -> development for this but the menu option isn't there.
So how do I make the screen stay on during charge on the I9100?
i do it with an application called 'Extended control' others application of the same type have also the setting.

i'm wondering the same thing as my SGS2 seems to be missing the following option :

is the application that you are referring to "Extended Controls" and it's a paid app ?
thanks !
Just so you know, I the screen on the galaxy S ii we get burnt pixel marks fairly easily with the super amoled + display, and so leaving the screen on displaying the same image might not be a good idea. A live wallpaper might help.
Umm well mine stays on when I plug it into the mains or the USB with no extra apps?? Might be one of the apps I have installed I suppose but I haven't downloaded anything specific. I have rooted and upgraded my firmware to KE7 though.

i'm not sure how you manage to keep your screen on - mine switches off after the usual delay even when docked on my desk ...
My screen also switches off while plugged in by usb. Worse still, i found that while using Kies Air, once the screen goes off Kies no longer can communicate with the phone!
Solution was to install JuiceDefender. A great little app, you can tell it to keep connecting for certain Apps even when the screen is off. So all you need to do is add Kies Air. Now it works!
thanks for the update. inspired by your post i had another search and found a similar app called Screen On which has the same functionality including the ability to keep the screen on when the phone is being charged ...
thanks !
I noticed that when the Photon is docked in the HD station, if the screen should come on for any reason whether it be a message or anything else, it seems to stay on forever despite the fact that I have the screen set to shut off after 2 minutes in settings/display. Is there any way to change this behavior? Because I like using the dock as my charger but don't think I will if this behavior can't be changed.

Closest option to what you said is stay awake. Just checked and it is unchecked.
Can anyone figure this out?
It's actually enabled in the framework, if you want to disble that, you will have to modify the framework-res.apk
lol "Where is Cleveland?" "Oh, actually, that's in the milkey way." Can you narrow that down a little please?
how do I keep the TP from turning on while on the touchstone? I don't want a clock or pictures, I just want it dark in my room at night. I can turn off the power when I first set it on the dock but when its fully charged on pops the screen again. How can I disable this?
Thanks
install preware if you dont have it already, go to patches and look for charge only option. there's several to choose from. pick one you like and use.
I'm pretty sure if you hit the power button after exhibition mode starts it will turn the screen off for good. But what I did was install the minimum brightness patch so now when its in exhibition mode it is much darker and much less bothersome when trying to sleep. To install the patch you'll need preware installed.

Do you happen to know the name? I found one called Quick System Tasks and it locked up my tab. I looked through all the prepare apps and only found that one.

Are you using the Preware app on your Touchpad?
Preware -> Available Packages -> Patch -> Search -> Enter "Charge"
The search is started by tapping the magnifying glass in the top button, which brings up the keyboard. Type in "charge" (without the quotes).

Or when it receives any notifications for that matter. I've resorted to just keeping the cover on the HP case closed so it covers the screen when I leave it on the touchstone overnight.

If you're talking about the temp of the device, I'm not really sure. I installed the minimum brightness patch the second day I got it because it was way too bright to have as a bedside clock. I also have a case on it, but it doesn't feel warm when I take it off the stone. Also, the lowest brightness with the patch can only be set in the screen and lock app. You cannot set it from the drop down on the home screen.

uhhh im sure he is asleep by the time it fully charges.
i have a solution
1) put the charger and the touchpad into a box
2) tape the box up
3) put my address on the box
4) take it to the post office and send it to me
that should fix your problem

Could anybody advise me if the following is possible?
I use my S3 in my car, plugged into a powered Brodit cradle.
From here, I play music (and sometimes use Co-Pilot).
The issue I have is that the screen keeps switching off (when SatNav isn't on), after a set period.
I want the screen to be permanently on, when I'm driving, so if I glance at the handset, I can see what's playing/coming next etc.
The maximum timeout I can see in the settings is 30 mins, which isn't even remotely long enough for me.
The developer option of keeping the screen awake doesn't seem to be available on the S3.
I've tried Tasker, and setting up a profile to keep the screen awake when plugged in, but it doesn't seem to work. (also the screen still dims, even before switching off).
I've also tried Widgetsoid and having a switcher set up to keep screen permanently on, but that still dims too.
Is there an app available, that would do what I'm looking for maybe?
Many thanks.
I had wondered about this too.

I hope you realize you will most likely damage you display with burn-in , one of the few example i have heard of burn-in happening is with car-navigation.
You can keep your brightness low as possible, also using a product like "display tester" run the burn-in recovery regulary.
Though it would be recommended you buy a dedicated gps-sat nav.
John.
If that's what you want, install extended controls from market and add "screen always on"] toggle to your desktop
《tapatalked from galaxy s3》
Hmm, thanks for the advice on buying SatNav. That won't help much with the music player, which is my main issue. (The handset stays on when using SatNav, which is obviously required when using it).
I've used all my previous phones (iPhones, HTC's etc in this way, and not suffered any burn-in. I'd be suprised if I get burn in after an hour's drive home, but I'll take the risk.).
You may tap the screen every 29 minutes actually lol.

:laugh: Not ideal, but i'm already doing that when I remember.
I think I may have found a solution.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gr.androiddev.ScreenOn&hl=en
Seems to allow me to select an app which, when active, will keep the screen alive, but when not active, will shut off like normal.
If this works, it's great.
Thanks again guys.
Try Keepscreen from the play store. I use navigation approximately 6 hours weekly previously on my S2 and now my S3, no need for a dedicated GPS.
For anyone else who stumbles across this page, and wants to keep their screen on playing music in the car, I solved my issue in the end by using Power Amp, which has a built in option to keep the screen alive.
I use PowerAMP too, so have that option already also.
However, I do still want the basic option which was present on my previous Android phone to make the screen stay alive whenever the device is operating on external power (it was in the Developer section before, but seems to have disappeared).
I don't mind if the screen dims a little, but I don't want it to turn itself off while the power cable is attached (although I could always do it myself, using the power button, if I want).
Otherwise, when running on batteries, I DO want it to timeout and turn off as usual after 30 seconds. Including when I'm playing music in PowerAMP on battery power.
Is this an ICS issue, or a Samsung vs. HTC one?
Andre
"Keepscreen" and "screen on" does the same,keeps the screen on .
It's just what u prefer
I've installed Screen On which seems to do the trick, just wondering where the Android system option went to?

Stay Awake
1. Open the settings
2. Click on 'About device'
3. Click on 'Build number' 7 times
4. Go back to settings screen and you will see 'Developer options'. From here you can access the 'Stay Awake' function again.

Really? The Developer Options menu is already there on mine, but there is no "stay awake while on power" option. Which version of Android are you running to see the Stay Awake feature on a Galaxy S3?

I just wanted to say that worked wonders for me, while the previously mentioned program did not. (most likely because they probably haven't been updated for my device yet.)

I'm close to having the phone perfect but these two still persist. There is a myriad of old options for Xposed and I was wondering if anyone has had success with any of them? I use the phone for a GPS unit on a cycle with a dynamo hub, so the waking up is annoying.
I've sorted the sound already, so there are two wake up conditions:-
1. power is enabled
2. battery reaches 100%.
Cheers, Andrew

Hi Andrew,
I can't help with Xposed, but I have a suggestion and a side question.
My suggestion : try IpBike (with IpBikeKey to unlock it).
The author of IpBike reads and answers e-mails. He is opened to new features if the idea is good.
If IpBike can't force the screen off (I never tested, as I don't charge my device as I cycle !), he may add the feature.
My question : is the PVG100 ANT+ capable ?
I use a Sony-Ericsson Xperia Active as a cycle computer (powered by IpBike), with ANT+ Speed, Cadence and Heart-rate sensors.
I would like to replace it with a PVG100E/EU, but the ANT directory does not list any Palm device.
Have a nice day !
Cobus.
Probably not, ANT is an extra cost for a manufacturer.
I found an open-source app which works. It's a bit old but still it does the job.
Basically it registers itself as an admin app so it can control the screen, then when a wakeup comes in it turns the screen back off. It's quick enough that the screen doesn't get a chance to come on. No root required.

Have you tried enabling "zen mode?" Zen mode keeps everything on the phone from waking I believe. I have tried it, but got annoyed when the wifi would cut out once I turned my screen off, because it would stop what I was listening to. Not sure exactly what you're looking for, but zen mode might be something to play around with.
To activate zen mode, the easiest way is probably through the app "setedit." Under "system" options, scroll to the bottom and change zen mode from 0 to 1.
