There is a pop-up that is displayed whenever the S4 is placed on a wireless charger. It is annoying and the phone is unusable during the few seconds it is displayed (I can't even take a screen shot). The notification reads:
You have placed the device within range. Now charging Wirelessly...

Confirmed it works! Just install the "Installer.apk" and then install NottachXposed.apk. Go to the Installer.apk app then under modules, check (don't leave it unchecked) the NottachXposed.apk. Then go to NottachXposed.apk and there should be a toggle for wireless charging notification.
It turned off the pop-up notification but the sound and screen still turns on. Not as bothersome if I silence the phone at night.

Thanks was about to do it and i saw it only disable the pop up- I am looking to disable the sound- nothing seems to disable the beep as the S4 stops charging at 98% and then trickles to 100%- lot's of disconnects and reconnects. System volume, silent mode etc have been tried. any suggestions would be highly appreciated

^THIS^
Anyone have a solution now?
The whole point of this system was to sit on my nightstand, so I don't have to fiddle with it in the dark. The beeps and screen constantly popping on and off all night is incredibly annoying. Putting the phone on silent or Air-Plane does not stop the phone from lighting up. It does appear that the phone is lighting up to indicate 100%, and then disconnecting and re-connecting around 98%. I understand why the phone does this, but have no idea why the alerts are needed every 2 minutes.
I guess not enough people are using Qi charging to complain yet.

Theres an option in wanam to disable the wireless charging dialog, I dont know if it takes care of the sound too tho.
Hit thanks if I helped you out. Doing a little bit of reading goes a long way. Sent via tapatalk.
As a new GS4 user, I'll have to say this is my one disappointment. I used inductive charging with my Palm Pre and it worked great. I was hoping that I'd have the same experience with the Qi charging system but now I get woken up between 2 and 3 am each night by the phone cycling the charge. I end up sliding it off the Qi pad so it stops the charging for the night. With the 4.3 update and blocking mode I should be able to turn off notifications but I'll have to test the exceptions so I can still get my emergency texts from our monitoring systems at work. No matter if the notification sound is turned off, the screen will still turn on and off. I'll agree, as the Qi chargers become more popular it may change the way the developers indicate charging but it would have been nice if they would have thought of it from the start.

May be bumping an ancient thread here, but if anyone else comes a-looking like I did, the Wanam Exposed has an option under the Lockscreen to disable the screen from turning on when AC/USB is unplugged that solves this annoyance. If you want to go a step further and make it completely stealthy, rename the charger_connection.ogg in Android/system/media/UI so you don't hear the beeping every 15-20 seconds either.

Wow, thanks for this post! My wireless charging is almost now 100% flawless.
The mod linked at the beginning of this thread, Nottach Xposed, also has the mod to disable the screen from constantly turning on and off, under Framework, uncheck "turn on screen when unplugging from AC/usb". Works sweet.
I usually always have my phone on vibrate, and even with the mods in the OP, AC/USB unplug notification off and renamed my Android/system/media/AUDIO/UI/charger_connection.ogg to charger_connection.ogg.bad my phone still constantly vibrates throughout the night
Any solution to disable the vibrate notification of charging/unplugged??? If I can do this my wireless charging will be 100% flawless for me!
EDIT: http://repo.xposed.info/module/com.eldarerathis.xposedmodule.wirelesschargingxposed works to disable the vibrate notification. Nevermind, when I drop it on the charger it doesn't initially vibrate, but once it reaches 100% then constantly cycles on and off it vibrates throughout the entire night

Hey guy i found out the reason why the notification keeps popping up,
You must see the output amperage. Wireless chargers should be atleast
1.5 output. If lower the notification keeps popping up. Lock screen
On your s4 then put it on the charging pad. Do not use .5 or 1amp.
It will just get hot. I fixed my sister's phone issue just by changing the
Wall charger. Did not need to install or root anything. Hope this helps.
Most chargers say need higher than 1amp for wireless charging.
Thanks guys.

Anyone else having any problems with the touchscreen? I noticed the phone was very very accurate when texting among other things (coming from the EVO 4G) and I thought something was up the past few days because my autocorrect was stepping in a lot more than usual even thought I thought I was hitting the right keys.
Now, when I'm at the pattern lock screen, I can draw my pattern as many times as I want and it never draws the pattern I draw. I will drag an entire line and it will either show I'm touching the first or the last dot. And on the home screen, I'll swipe and it won't move (kinda rebounds back to the page I was on) or it thinks I'm pinching the screen.
Just wondering if anyone else had this problem and had to return it yet?
I'm having problems where I can't use my screen from time to time. It seems to stick. The only way to get back to my screen working is by turning my phone screen off. This is starting to become an issue. Especially when I am in the middle of a message or email.
Sent from my great Evo3D.
Is it certain keys don't work? Actually noticed that in landscape mode, my palm was touching the corner of the screen rendering some key strokes unrecognizable. Seems to have a more sensitive screen.

The phone thinks It's being touched around the Y and G keys. I went to enter my gmail account info since I got locked out and it kept pressing those keys. Really annoying.
I'm having same problem and its annoying me allot .. I'm not sure if its the screen or a bug .. but there is times my screen is not responsive.. I've thought of bringing it in.

I'm having this problem right now. My phone seems to be hitting keys by itself(like continuously going back to the previous screen) and my lockscreen pattern only registers one hit even though i'm moving to more than one dot at a time. I just rebooted and it's still doing this. It's randomly doing this over the past 2 days though.
There is times that ill do the pattern 3 or 4 times and it will reset itself.. or ill have to wait 30 seconds after i have repeatedly done the pattern.. It has been doing it since I had the phone.. its irritating as hell.. not sure if its a phone issue or screen issue ... But I'm sure Sprint will make something up and just so a reset..

Bone stock here. The problem comes and goes randomly. Had the problem half hour ago, just left it alone for awhile, and now it seems to be normal again.
I've never thought I had very good luck, but when I come to these forums and read the problems so many of you guys have with your phones, I think I do. I've never had an issue with any of my Android phones. I wonder if its because I hardly download any apps. I mainly use it for browsing the net, text and phone calls. Just weird.
Any of you guys with this problem notice that it happens more when attached to USB? I just realized that the past 2 or 3 times I have the touchscreen issue that I also had the 3D charging on via USB on my computer.

Yeah, seems like most phones act weird when plugged in. Still having lockscreen issues, really REALLY annoying!
Mine has been having a ton of issues starting this last weekend. Sometimes it seems to have a mind of it's own and keys just start getting pressed. Other times it won't process touches. Most of the time the App drawer and personalization launchers at the bottom of the sense skin won't work. Thought I had it fixed last night by clearing a bunch of program data, but came back today. Seems to be a hardware issue. Probably take it back in. Really upset as this is my third one so far. Have done multiple hard resets to try to clear it.
I was able to catch this happening in the "MultiTouch Visualizer" app, and took some screenshots of it. These screenshots show what appears to be 2 separate issues, but they seem to be closely related.
In this one, I'm actually touching in the center of the two touch points (i.e., where the blue circle appears), but there it seems to have some kind of "gap" in the sensor, where it thinks that my one touch is actually two. It always occurs at that horizontal location -- basically along the blue horizontal line.

If I move my finger up, it goes back to one pointer:
and likewise if I drag down, below that problem region:
But when crossing that region of the touchscreen, it gets interrupted and thinks there are 2 touch events. That's what makes it difficult or impossible to unlock when the problem is occurring.
The 2nd issue is that after a while of testing, it actually ended up "sticking" where it was registering two touch events at the bottom center, even though I am not touching the screen:
and this is what happened when I did touch the screen (pointer "1" is where I was actually touching, but pointers 2 and 3 were still registering, so it thought I was touching the screen in 3 places):
The problems seem to come up about 2 or 3 times a day. Usually at the worst possible moment -- there was one time I was trying to snooze the alarm, and somehow it ended up tapping that center location on its own several times... First tap opened the Phone app (the center button on the Sense home screen) to the call log. Second tap registered on the green "Call" button, so it ended up redialing the last number I called. I panicked and tried to end the call by tapping several times on the End Call button, but it wouldn't register at all... I tried home, back, opening the notification bar, etc, and nothing was responding. Eventually the call ended after going to their voicemail, but then it tapped the green "Call" button again, and called them again!
I'm probably going to have the same issue trying to replace it, because it doesn't happen all the time.

I've had this issue I can recreate it, I returned my first 3d and noticed the second one did the same thing. I think its a kernel issue because the cooked kernels don't have this problem. And this seems to happen after rooting the phone using the temp root method.
It has something to do with the multi touch.
Ill take the draw app, draw a line and at the same time touch a different part of the screen, the line im drawing will now look like this __ __ __ __ all broken like that. This has happened on two 3d's now. So when your keyboard is suddenly becomes non responsive, this is probably what's going on. The problem will fix itself in about five seconds or so and operate normally again. I thought about making a video of it.
I made a cool YouTube video of the problem:

I had this exact thing happen to me yesterday. It called someone I really didn't want to talk to, and I kept trying to hang the freakin phone up. It went to their voice mail and I am yelling at the phone to shut off at this point, and I finally just ripped the battery out... Probably was a funny voicemail for the person.. ugh..
I get touchscreen issues but it only seems to be when I just washed my hands and they are still ever so slightly wet. Thats when the screen gets super stuck and I have all sorts of issues. And I would never use my phone with "wet" hands, this is like after I used a paper towel and I didn't even think they were wet, wet lol..
It happens often enough to be annoying, but not so often that each time it does it I am still confused as to wtf is going on.
Mine has had random times where most of the touch screen wont work since day one, happens every couple of days, usually have to reboot for it to work again
About 2-3 times a hour, the screen will turn itself on and display the lockscreen, then go back to sleep if i don't touch it.. I always think i'm receiving a text message or something and it's getting annoying.
I'm on VR 2.3, but I also had this problem on Lite'ning, so i don't think it's rom dependent. Could any of these apps be the issue? I've frozen a bunch of them tho and it didn't help.

You must have something running on the background, could be GMaps/Latitude, Push/Pull exchange etc etc..to know what it is, download and install Better Battery Stats and look under the 'Wakelocks' option. You will see what is causing the Awakes and take further steps.
And ATK is not advised for Android. (I was against it but now I too agree it )

edit* never mind, found it on xda.

then it got reset randomly with no reason. i didn't notice.
then it didn't recognized by computer and randomly didn't get charged.
today when it goes to standby mode it light up after few seconds and if i try to put it back in sleep mode by pushing power bottom it gets freeze and hang up.
Even when I turn the phone off sometimes it turns on by itself and after booting goes to car mode

The only culprit I cant really think off is your Advanced task killer, its doing more harm than good. Uninstall it and observe.
There a read up about task killers and what they actually do

I see, I have uninstalled it and monitored my wakelocks with better battery stats.
Can't really find anything. Facebook, Spotify, Dialer, Tapatalk, Widgetlocker etc. Tried freezing them all except dialer problem still occurs (but not so often?)
I received the phone yesterday night and have been using it heavily since then. My intention is not to be a hater, but rather to see if anyone is having these issues. I'm coming from a Sprint GS2 and have not had any of the issues below...dare I say it was smoother in everyday operation?
1. When on lockscreen and accessing settings - lag/slow/studder
2. After initial phone unlock, scroll left/right and lag/studder
3. After initial phone unlock, opening app drawer takes about .5-1 sec to open. After that, it is instant.
4. After killing all apps and going back to the homescreen, scrolling produces an initial studder.
5. When scrolling through homescreens, the screen recognizes a 'long-press' and highlights whatever widget/app was selected and either moves it, or highlights it to resize. This only happens when scrolling through all screens quickly and constantly. I do this to see how quick I can scroll.
I think these are all because of Sense. I remember it being heavy when I had my Inspire, but don't recall having issues like these.
Mine is running pretty smooth.
Might be an app that's not playing nice.
Some folks are having some issues with WIFI. TRy shutting WIFI off and see if it goes away.
I also tend to minimize apps using my location. They might all do a "Where am I" everytime you wake it.

I had this last night. A little airplane mode action brought back my connectivity, and I haven't had it drop 3G today. Hoping it was a fluke.
I have had 1 random reboot since yesterday, but otherwise it has really been running quick and nice. I am truly impressed with this device. Remind me of when I got my OG Evo and how impressed with it I was at the time.
Thanks for the legit replies guys. I usually end up making the threads that idiots reply to, but so far this crowd isn't half bad!
I'm going to keep working with it and hopefully the phone will lose the quirks (idk how but a man can hope).

Yep, I've turned off all of those (even the international roaming guards) and still get the audible notification. Even with the phone on vibrate or silent modes. Changing notification sound doesn't change the roaming notification either...

Try settings->wifi->advanced (click the menu button), and see how long the phone will keep wifi on if it goes to sleep. I'd just turn it to always stay on.
Initial issues? Oh you guys that already got the phone are already complaining? Geez LOL

No issues here with the proximity sensor. It turns on and off when it should. If anything, it turns off a bit sooner than the old evo did, but not an issue either way.
Yesterday (day 1), my speech to text was crap. I'd say a sentence, it would record one word or letter. I cleared the voice recognition cache to reset it to learn from new. Maybe that helped, maybe something on google needed a day to cycle.
One or two fc's for a sideloaded app. No reboots or other crashes.
I am rooted (less than 4 hours after bring it home).
Also, I'm using nova launcher. I like adw ex, but the 3 vertical dots at the bottom are annoying. If/when they update it for ICS I may switch back. Nova works quite well, with almost as many bells/whistles as adw. Also using latest widget locker for the lock screen. I hate sense, and more so the sense lock screen. Several choices are not enough. I have all my frequently used apps right there on the lock screen.
Also, both adw and nova lets you access some of the hidden settings/functions from the settings menu using the 'activities' shortcuts.
Sorry, ive searched about this issue and found nothing, its really very annoying, somewhat motorola's geniouses realized that setting a "full white color" startup animation would be cool, but as almost every phone turns automatically on when plugged, but my motorola is on the "Dead line" which drains all minimum voltage to start up by starting up and shots you back to "Off" into an eternal "on off" loop, this is wreck to me so I really need a quick very easy hint to disable my phone from automatically turning on (I remember that was possible before, my phone used to stay off while charging no matter if unplugged and re-plugged.
Please help im full desperate
please answer me ....
Hi everyone,
sorry if this has been answered, I tried to search. Since the last samsung update my phone is constantly turning on the torch or calling 911 when its in my pocket. I've tried everything and just cant seem to stop this stupidity!
Is there a way to fully disable touchscreen when the screen is off? When you press the powerbutton and screen wakes up the touch starts again? I dont care about waking the screen up with the fingerprint!
thanks
You should have these settings, they use to be there with Pie on Samsung's.

Turning the display away from your skin and using a case with slightly raised display guards helps a lot. Turning on Accidental touch protection stops it most times.

I have all those setup, I have double tap to wake all off also.
I just installed Touch Blocker but it doesnt behave as I would expect. The touch is still active when on lockscreen/off and then blocks once you unlock it. so there is still a chance could butt dial 911.. hmm

I use the Zizo Bolt case, it provides excellent protection, a two layer system with an outer polycarbonate shell. Never comes apart in a multi impact drop. It has slightly raises display guards that help reduce false touches when using and in pocket. I have 2 N10+'s and use One Handed Operation plus as well as Edge Panels, it doesn't interfere with their use very much.
I don't use lock screen, double tap on/off. If you face it away from your skin and then be careful not to touch the screen when placing it in your pocket it works well. BDU pant button (unbuttoned) cargo pockets are great for these phones. Most times Accidental Lock Protection stops it. The other thing you can do is set the display timeout to a lower value; less time to do damage. However mine are still set to 10 minutes. I habitually double tap it all the time.
Lol, a couple times I pulled it out and saw menus I never saw before. I explore settings etc a lot too. So many buried submenus
911? I'm more afraid of changing a vital setting.
Emergency call is package blocked on my devices as well.

Not exactly what you are asking BUT just got a S21 two weeks ago and pocket dialed police twice - they called first but still= bad.
Tried to get energency tab off lockscreen with Samsung Remote Tutor [ and Samsung tech ] - not possible .
NOW however I have fingerprint enabled .
When phone is in my pocket in 'standby black screen mode' 'screen off'
IF it is jostled around - it goes to the
FINGERPRINT SCREEN -
and can not call 911 .
And I get messages sometimes that screen was temporarily disabled due to random touches or something like that but it turns back on right away.
SO - the fingerprint reader screen acts as a buffer where the 'emergency call ' button is NOT exposed in my pocket .
Questions ? I was very annoyed with this the first day and second day I got the phone .
