[Q] When is the battery fully charged? - Xperia Play Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all.
Right now i look into phone status to see the battery-percent if its 100% or not. But most time i'm charging the phone when its turned off. and then you really cant exactly tell when its charged. yes, you can see the battery-icon when you press the home button. but is it really fully charged when the animation is full?
somewhere i read that its charged when the led turns green. but its already green when the battery-icon is only 3quarters full.
I miss some kind of notification that tells me when the battery is fully charged.

It's 'fully' charged when the status (Settings -> About Phone -> Status) says 100%, the status bar image shows a full battery for less then 100% (between 100 and 80? I think)
There's an article here on the subject: http://www.guardian.co.uk/technology/blog/2011/nov/16/android-battery-icon-information
You can install themes that will display the number in the battery image or you can get 1% incremental battery themes, which will be more accurate

ok but this is just for turned on.
but what about when its turned off? because as i said thats the way i mostly charge it.

Dont think you can do anything when the phone is off think your just gona have to charge it when its on... You can see a percentage on the lockscreen while charging the phone when is on

Tilt 2 LED - Just network signal?

Hello,
I just got a touch pro2 lastweek and I am beating my head trying to figure out what the deal is with the status notification LEDs
I see one to the LEFT of the earpiece/speaker that flashes green every few seconds and then just stops - all the flashing stops. I'm thinking the bliking stops when the phone goes to sleep. So i press the power to wake the phone - but the flashing doesn't come back. I was thinking this is the network/signal indicator but doesn't seem that way.
I see another that's to the RIGHT of the earpiece/speaker that doesn't go on at all.
So no way to tell if the phone is on wifi network or if bluetooth is on (without obviously waking the phone up and checking on screen). I'm looking for a way to see status without touching the phone - like my old HTC TyTn (rest in peace!)
It turns red when you charge you're phone.
It turns green when you are fully charged (with the charger still in)
It blinks green when you have a new message/e-mail/missed call.
It blinks red when you're batterie is almost empty.
That are the basics
thanks! that's about what i seemed to have gathered too... what about that fake light like thing to the right of speaker? never lights up?
and no bluetooth/wan notification ten, right?

thats the light sensor for the screen
adjusts brightness depending on how much light is hitting the phone
Below is a description of the LED lights straight from the manual that came with my Tilt2.
* The Notification LED shows a:
Flashing green light when there are new SMS, MMS or email messages, missed calls, or reminders.
Solid green light when the device is connected to the power adapter or a computer and the battery is fully charged.
Solid amber light when the battery is being charged.
Flashing amber light when the remaining battery level reaches below 10%.

That's pretty much exactly it. There is a program floating around that allows you to change the light and customize the reason it flashes, but I think it's just fine the way it is .
it also flashed green then the red light really quick when its overheating :O
thanks for the quick replies folks.
I saw that in the manual too - but i never go by the manuals! i can't count how many times my manuals have been wrong about a particular function.
it's a disappointment since the older Tytn was much more friendly about the notifications. but i'll deal with it.
as far as that being a light sensor - i think it makes sense. I'll try trick it to see what I notice. Then I'm guessing it's the proximity sensor that's around the HTC logo? I think I was in the sun when I saw it but there's some sort of sensor around there. I figured that's the light sensor. perhaps not.
Thanks again!

[Q] Turn off green light and/or notification of full charge to unplug?

When the phone reaches 100% it seems a bright green light is stuck illuminated and a notification to unplug that cannot be swiped away. Is there a way to remove either of these once fully charged?
Have you tried pulling down the notification bar and then pressing clear? If this does not help, unplug the charger then try the same.
If that doesn't help, remove and then replace battery and see if you have same issue on a subsequent charge. Failing that, perform a factory reset. If that doesnt work, there might be a fault, exchange phone...
I bet someone on xda has a less convoluted solution though

*deleted* sorry, got the question wrong...
display -> LED indicator under settings is where you can control which types of event can trigger the LED.
as for the notification itself, that would probably require a modification to the system UI application.
and there's always the option "do what the error says" which is to unplug the power cable.
I think I know what you mean, this happened to me:
-My N2 was charged 100%.
-I took the charger out of the wall.
-I took the cable out of the N2.
After that, the N2 always seems to think it's still charging. So, take the cable out of the device first! BTW this is also in the manual.

[Q] green LED when full charged

Hi, I'm just wondering why my note 2 does not turn on the green LED light when my battery is fully charged?
The red LED will stop lighting when the battery is fully charged
but I don't see any green LED after that
can someone help me?
It's possible that somewhere down the line, the display must have turned on without you noticing, and Android OS assumes you have already checked the phone's battery status; therefore, the green light disappeared. Try charging next time with phone set to Airplane Mode switched on; if the green light still doesn't appear after 100% charge, update us.

Even having the phone right next to me plugged in.... no green LED when fully charged. Stays on red.
Checked the LED with *#0*# and green is technically ok.

[Q] How to turn off the "Battery full, unplug charger to save energy" notification?

[Q] How to turn off the "Battery full, unplug charger to save energy" notification?
Like many people I leave my phone on the charger overnight. With my G3, once it charges to 100% I get a notification in the middle of the night (complete with noise and vibration to wake me up) telling me that the battery is full. I then get repeated notifications every few minutes as the phone partially discharges and recharges to 100%.
If I am actually actively using the phone while it is plugged in, it is even worse - every few seconds the notification comes.
Surely there must be an option to turn this off? Every "solution" I have searched for is not really a solution at all. People say to put the phone on silent or on quiet mode (I need to be able to receive calls and texts overnight). Other people say to switch notification sounds off (but that would turn off sounds for all notifications, not just the battery full ones). A few say we need to install Xposed and a special module (xposed killed the battery on my Z1 compact so I'd rather avoid installing it if possible).
Is there no simple way to turn off this notification?

LED notification

Is there any way to turn the LED off for low battery? It comes on at 15% there is still a lot of battery time left even at 15% for this phone so I want to turn the LED off.

Hey, you can do that via third-party app, like LIGHT FLOW.
