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+.

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.
I am finding that the display timeout changes on it's own from 2 minutes to 15 seconds. What could be causing this?

widgetlocker?
I am using widget locker. I turned on RootHelper, maybe that will keep the lockscreen timeout seperate from the regular timeout.
Also power saver changes it too

I agree with James. I noticed the phone's per saver doing this. It annoyed me so I turned it off and noticed my battery lasted longer.

As I surprisingly found out with my old HTC EVO 3D, there are actually TWO different settings options on the Galaxy Note, which control how long the screen stays on. One setting can be set to 1 minute and the other can simultaneously be set to 30 seconds, without overriding your previous setting. The result is that the lowest setting will always be used. I have no idea why this redundant and counterintuitive feature has been built into Android phones. I am not in front of my phone right now to tell you where to get into your settings to make sure BOTH are set to the same time, but once you do it, your problem should be solved. This was happening to me, too, when I first got my Note. It's no longer happening.
One is (obviously) under Display > Screen time-out.
Found another under Power Saving > Custom power saving settings (after turning on Custom power saving). I could see if you had "Power saving on at" set to its highest setting (50%), then that would override the one under Display very often.
Finished looking around, that's all I see.
I am rooted.
Screen is not dimming, smart stay is off, and timeout has been changed between 15-30 seconds. Phone still does not autosleep. SmartStay is off, tried toggling it as well.
Any suggestions?
Reboot fixed it for me

Same here.
This happens every two days or so.
I'm just paranoid I will fall asleep without knowing about this and have a screen with burn in. Luckily, last night my battery was low and died so it shut off. Otherwise, i'd probably have a status bar burnt to the top of my screen.
I've found the smart stay feature to be flaky at best. I suggest people not use the feature and set a display timeout and adjust ones app settings. I know some ebook programs like to keep the screen on.

I had the same issue but since unlocking, wiping and moving to beans v2 it hasn't come back but we'll see if that lasts.

I'm assuming you are Korean based on your username... If you are playing any Kakaotalk games, including anipang, dragonflight.. so on.. kill that app after you are done playing. That will take care of it. I think that is the reason why reboot cures it.
Has anyone looked into a way to schedule the display on/off? Maybe with tasker?
For example: during the day I'd like to have display always-on with a brightness level 1 or 2...but at night, I'd like it to auto-off.

Funny that you brought this up. I would be nice if Android Wear could have option to disable the screen and bluetooth during night to minimize battery drain and maybe give the watch an extra day runtime!
I'm also wondering this. Both my phone and watch are rooted. Is there any way I can schedule Always-on Screen: On during the day and switch it to Off in the evening?
I think that lot of people would like to have this feature.
You can try to use a watch face displaying black screen, but this is not the perfect solution.
