My OG Doid used to play a nice loud notification sound when it turned off due to the battery dying. I can't remember if I set this up somewhere or if it just did this by default, but I really liked it. That way I knew I needed to swap out the battery. My GNex just dies a silent death and I have no idea that I'm missing calls. Does anyone know if there's a way to get the GNex to play a notification sound when it dies? Thanks.
I use the app Light Flow which lets me manage the LED light as well as notifications with sounds, including Low Battery.

It will beep and give you a huge pop up when you are down to 14% and then again at 4 or 5%. I don't know if the LED changes color or flashes, but I'm sure it does.
This is all automatic. No need to set it up.

Thanks for the suggestion. The funny thing is, I already use Light Flow to manage the LED notifications. I just never thought to use it for this. It's not quite the same as having the notification right as the phone is dying, but being able to set it to notify me when the battery is at 1% is close enough.

Thanks. I am all too aware of these earlier notifications, (in fact, if you know a way to turn them off or change the % at which they activate, I would love to do so). I really just need to know when the phone is dying.
Notification on vibrate mode fail to work after leaving phone unused for a specified period of time. It seems the phone pretty much goes into a half dead sleep mode even though I have disabled as much visible stuff on the power management options. Any way to resolve this issue.
Also this thing takes 3 hrs to recharge fully plugged in straight to a wall outlet.

Don't know about the first part but 3 hours to charge is normal.

What I mean is that if you set the phone to vibrate notifications will vibrate also, like calendar events. But when you leave this phone down for over 20m or so it goes into a deep sleep mode where it practically becomes useless and no notifications come through , the wifi shuts down, pretty much the thing is half dead. Massive power management. And I went through the settings where I changed wifi to always on and high performance, the screen to never sleep unless I hit the lock button. I have a motorola atrix 4g that is rock solid, but this dam thing is barbaric in its power management and also in it's multitasking. It kills everything on the background if it is left there for more than a minute. I might swap it for the Galaxy S3 when it comes out here .
notifications always work for me..?
I have problems with notifications too but not only on vibrate mode.
I always get them when I turn the screen on but if not an SMS notificiation can come as late as 10 minutes after it was recieved. So I guess it wakes up from the coma sometimes to do a check.
I've searched and learned that Samsung phones have a "feature" that when the battery is fully charged, the phone will vibrate and the LED will blink or stay on. IDK cuz I sleep through this but my wife has been awoken by it 2 of the 3 nights at 3am since I got this awesome phone and she tells me this.
I see that there's an app for the GS2's to eliminate these notifications (although some claim the phone still vibrates) but I have not found anything really helpful about this in the Nexus forums on multiple sites. Besides the obvious solution of not charging the phone through the night, is there anything else I can try? I keep my phone on silent and I have sleep mode activated for Light Flow fwiw.
Uhh. The Galaxy Nexus doesn't vibrate and blink its LED at full charge, this is not a feature this phone has. You must have an app doing it.
hmm, I guess it was Light Flow... but I know for sure I disabled the battery charged notification completely before last night and when I did have it on, I never had vibrate enabled just the LED. I guess I'll have to experiment. Thanks for quick reply.

Surely was Light Flow (or another notification app). Easy to test.
every few seconds when the phone is in sleep mode? In the purpose to know that the phone is on?

Why do u need that ?
Are you afraid that your phone suddenly dead or can't wake up ?
Don't worry, I very happy when my phone is in deep sleep. And never worry that it is suddenly OFF.
My understanding, the LED is functioned as a reminder when there's a msg coming (from any kind of apps), or low battery, or charging, or fully charged.
Light manager also I can't find any function that you need.
Sent from the corner of this rounded earth.
it can be nice to have the led when the phone is in sleep mode
I also wanted this function in the next update most of the phones u hav a led function have their led lights blinkin always
I noticed on my Verizon G3 the other night that after the battery reaches 100% that the phone then continues to notify you with a vibration and a tone about every 10 seconds.. very annoying. Clearing the notification does not make it go away.. the only thing you can do is unplug. This is very annoying especially if you're like me and leave your phone charging all night long. It also turns the screen on for a few seconds every time the notification goes off.
I checked my wife's Sprint model and noticed she doesn't have this problem. Anyone else notice this and what model do you have? ...and have you found a solution?
For now I've been keeping my phone in a drawer so it doesn't wake me but Im thinking about putting it on an outlet with a timer.. Im assuming because this is not an AMOLED screen that we do not have to worry about screen burn in? or do we?
I've submitted a request to @P_Toti to hopefully get a mod to disable this using the G3 TweaksBox app.
My T-Mobile D851 does the same crap. So annoying.
Weird. My T-Mobile version doesn't do that.
That is strange.
If it helps.. I'm completely stock except for root and Xposed used to change the battery icon, alarm icon removed and I'm using a custom nav bar theme (Android L softkeys)
I'm completely stock.
Does it still do,it if the phone is on silent?
You can download Light Manager and turn it off.
Does it quiet mode, yes.

Light Manager is for the notification light. Whats happening is the phone vibrates, makes a tone, and turns the screen on every 10 seconds or so.
I noticed last night that it does eventually stop notifying after a while.. I think. I plugged in around 11pm.. some time around 4am it woke me up, I continued to monitor the notification trigger every ~10 seconds for about an hour.. I finally put it in the drawer so I can get some sleep.. when I woke up around 9am I noticed it was no longer notifying me every ~10 seconds that the battery was charged. So I'm not sure what's going on. I have my Verizon model and my wife's Sprint model (which doesn't have this problem) both using the same type of usb cable, charger and wall outlet so I know its not a low power issue coming from the charger.

My guess for the multiple notifications - it charges to full, vibrates and beeps to let you know the battery is full, which lowers the battery just a tad...and it recharges 10 seconds later, once again vibrating and beeping, which again lowers the battery...lather, rinse, repeat.
My G3 does it as well - irritating as hell. Even in silent mode it briefly turns on the screen when it reaches fully charged. I woke up last night to find my G3 turning on and off in a 2-second loop. The screen was like a slow-motion strobe light.
I hope someone finds a way to turn off the stupid battery charged notifications...
Mine does this too. Woke me up last night. I'd like to know how to make it stop besides throwing it on silent and turning it upside down.
So I just noticed last night that putting the phone on quite mode or silent works.. not sure why I didnt try that before.. guess it was because someone mentioned earlier that it didnt work for them. So thats my solution for now.. still would like to see some kind of Xposed mod for this.
Putting on silent isn't a good solution. What if there is a family emergency, etc. Some people are on call and cant do this either. I really cant believe LG implemented this without the option to disable it.
Would be great to identify what service is controlling that and maybe removing or blocking it under root mode.

Not silent but quite mode..it allows you to toggle on/off for notifications, calls and notification light. You can also set a white list for allowed contacts in case of emergency.
I rooted and found [ /system/media/audio/FullBattery.ogg ] and renamed this audio file. It'll still vibrate, but no sound now. When you long press the notification, it says its part of "System UI" so it looks like its not easily removable.
Well, that didn't work either.
This appears to be the only solution:
* root
* side load Xposed -- http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/xposed-installer-versions-changelog-t2714053
* grab "G3 TweakBox" Xposed module from Play Store and check "Hide Battery Full Notification"

Already have this installed and selected when it started doing it... did a reboot and it seems to have resolved it for now, but I am wondering what caused it to start doing that...

This partially works. I don't get the notification or the sound, but it still vibrates. I'm going to play around more with this later this week when I have time.
Same issue
Same issue occurs for me, so I just wake up and unplug the phone when I get that message. Very annoying though, to not wake up with a full battery.
This is so annoying, can't believe LG didn't include an option to turn this off. So many of us leave our phones on the charger overnight - so we end up with frequent beeps and vibrations as it charges to 100%, then partially discharges and charges again a few minutes later
Silent mode or quiet mode isn't an option as I need to be able to receive calls for work - I can't whitelist every number that might call me
