Hi, got my galaxy S II a couple of days ago, very satisfied so far!
But I have one question I would like to ask..
when I enable the power savings mode, it says it is active even though the battery percentage is over the threshold I have set..
but I see the settings I have set doesn't get activated until the percentage drops under the threshold..
Is this the same with your handsets?

I think it's only showing notification, but it activates at the threshold you set up.
Still, I would like to have option to turn the notification off.
I noticed my wifi dies out when locked and getting bad battery life. I took a three hour nap and if went down 15-20%. I noticed my bfs galaxy notes wifi is constant(using the same wifi) even when his screen is off and he's at 14 hours at 40%.
So i guess my question is what is the norm as far as wifi connectivity goes and why does mine disconnect and his stay on? Defective device?

U can change the settings under wifi settings, press menu and then advanced settings.

Holy crap thank you. I had no idea there was an extra advanced menu. =]

Not really sure why this is kept under advanced settings menu..how i'd do it..
Wifi toggled off, hide wifi sleep policy.
Toggle wifi on, wifi sleep policy shows up underneath. Press on this, notification bubble(similiar to how you pick your ringtones/fonts) pops up with the two or three options..
I never understood the need to hide things in "Advanced Menus", just only show what's pertinent to what the user has enabled.
My battery was draining really quickly before I did this. Now everything is much more as expected.
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.
Hey download.snoozy charger from play store

Option 2 worked for me on current up to date Samsung Note 9. Thank you so much. Tasker is great, I can't wait to see how many other issues I can use to resolve.

LOL This settings doesnt exist in the app
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.
See photo:
The scanning icon comes up every 5 seconds. Just wondering is this normal or what? Never showed up on my S2.
Also I keep getting a "connected to wifi network" notification at the bottom of my screen every few mins. Can't find anything to disable this.
Anyone in same boat?
It looks like its having problems keeping connected to your network, but its strange as you got full bar connection does it drop to nothing or is go very low when it reconnects?
This can be controlled with Rom Toolbox if you are rooted. I do it with my Note.

It sometimes goes off(wifi) when I turn off the screen.

if the wifi switches off on screen of thats wifi sleep policy, I don't know if thats under battery saver feature so if you have that on that could be why ill take a look.
*edit*
So I had a look if you go to Wi-Fi and click on it and navigate to advance you can change the "keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" to always. It should stay on all the time now which hopefully should fix your problem

Tried that but still the problem is there. If I turn screen off for a min or 2 and turn it back on then there's no wifi icon for a few seconds. I thought having it on always means it stays consistently connected to wifi? This doesn't seem to be the case as the "connected to wifi network " message appears at bottom of screen again.

I toggled off the AOD display in setting a few days ago and I keep finding it's turning itself back on. I put the phone in my car dock this morning, AOD display is on. I check the settings and it's toggled to off. I had to toggle it on and off again to kill it. Anyone know of anything hidden in the settings that could be doing it? I don't believe it's the schedule because I have the main toggle turned off for it.
I did use the MID power savings mode last week while on vacation and toggled it off a few days ago. It turns off AOD when you enable it, I'm wondering if that's doing something funky.
Do you have an app such as "AOD on Charge" or are you using the Routines app as part of Good Lock?

I do, I figured it out last night. I had the main toggle on routines off but it was still firing it..
Thanks for responding.
Are you able to link the setup you have that is able to change the AOD in the background? I have tried following the XDA post about S7/8 AOD while charging but that comes up with an error now in S9/S9+.
