[Q] Hourly Chime? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

This just started this morning, every hour my phone will chime a tune regardless of where the volume is set. I didn't know this was a feature and didn't activate it myself, so I have no idea where to turn it off. I've searched the clock app to no avail.
Any e else have any ideas?

Confused here... Your title says your phone won't sleep.. But your post says your screen times out (shuts off?)??
Little more please....

Try to delete some recent apps you installed.
I never got to the bottom of this. My screen will turn on after I get a txt or the alarm clock rings.

Those are proscribed behaviors... The phone is supposed to do that unless you dl a mod. I think freeza did a mod for the messaging notifications....

Hope I'm not thread jacking. But they turn on and never turn back off. So if I don't put my phone on the charger at night and then I get a txt, the screen stays on and drains. Or if I snooze in the morning and pass back out, the screen stays on.

Wake locks! Use better battery stats to tell you what the offending app is.

I'm actually having this issue. Phone will stay on and won't go into sleep. Touch key light duration is set to 1.5 seconds but this stays on as well. And I'm having to reset the phone every time this happens. Could anyone direct me to resolving this issue?
Use better batteey atats to find the app keeping it awake, and uninstall.

Is that a app?

any way to lower the brightness of the led notification?

I love the led notification, nothing like waking up in the middle of the night and looking over and knowing you don't have any notifications because the light isn't going off... but when I don't need a flashlight BECAUSE it's going off it gets annoying... I wanna be able to go to sleep if I'm ignoring it; yet have it there to know I have things to look at.
(first world problem I know)

Just turn it off???
Sure its nice to know if you have a message from afar but really? One of the first things I did when I got my GS3 and Note 2 was go into settings/display/LED Indicator/and unselect all boxes.
i don't think you can lower the intensity, but you can turn off the notifications and us an app called NoLED. it puts a notification on your screen instead. since OLED only lights up the active pixels the drain should be any more than the notification light. i use it with my sammy droid charge that has no notification lights.
Why not just go into settings and turn on Blocking Mode?
You can set the time frame it's active. It can keep led off, notifications, phone calls etc. You can change the settings for it.

I tried it the other night and it worked. I set the time and features I wanted blocked. Worked out fine from my little test.

Yep it worked. is there anyway to get rid of the blocking notification?
From what I know, it remains in the notification panel, as long as Blocking is turned on.

There's a mod for it. Its in the development forum. Im not near a computer or I would find it for you.

AudioOut_2 wakelock

I'm getting this wakelock. I dont know too much about these things, so all help is appreciated. Thanks
Sent from my galaxy note 2 using xda app-developers app
I think that it might be directly related to the actual audio output. As in, I listened to music for 2 hours, I get a 2 hour wakelock. I noticed that I didn't have anywhere near 2 hours of screen-off wakelocks. I did however watch Netflix for around 2 hours.

There is another thread on this issue. Maybe you can search for it. Basically this wake lock comes about if you set volume to 0 or silent mode.

So only solution is to never put the phone on silent?

Screen stays on ALL NIGHT

I dont know if anyone is facing the same problem I have now, my n2 screen wont turn off by itself. I have set the timer on 15secs, smart stay disable. It juz wont turn off when idle. And if its fully charged, it will stay up all night as well.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Does it relate to my Omega rom or Redpill kernel?
Thanks
Do you have motion on?
Reboot?

Check developer options, stay awake. Make sure its unchecked.

experienced this after upgrading to 4.1.2 weeks ago. backed up everything, complete-wipe then reflashed my rom(always on stock). no more issues. must have been a hiccup.

I had this even when I was on 4.1.1. Thought the upgrade would solve it for me but it didn't. Tough luck. Still searching for 3rd party apps that could give me a permanent solution.

i noticed this problem sometimes with 4.1.1 but not with 4.1.2
I dun have a fix to this problem but I have a tasker profile that turns the screen off when battery is fully charged. You might want to try that as an interim.
What is your screen time out once mine was changed automatically check that
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda premium
There's a button on the side for that
Just kidding, that's very strange. I noticed if you reboot the phone and don't touch it, when it comes on the screen never turns off either. Doesn't matter if it's plugged in or not.

I had that problem when using smart stay and smart rotation settings turned on in display settings. After I turned them off the screen shut off after 30 seconds as it should every time.
Sent from my GT-N7100 using xda app-developers app
Yes I noticed when 'smart stay' is turned on it causes the screen to stay on all the time. It's not a perfect feature. So I've turned it off
Sent from my SGH-I317M using xda app-developers app
do you have the power option to stay on whilst charging?
It's not smart stay, not the screen rotate with your head thingy nor the developer option that keeps the screen on while the device is being charged. I turned all that off. This is clearly a big that I've had from 4.1.1. Can't get rid of it. Annoyance at its peak.

Are you saying that the screen just won't turn off, or that it turns itself on and then won't turn off?
If it's the first, my guess is an app which prevents the screen from turning off, didn't release its lock after being shut down. This can happen with some games, I've seen it with angry birds and jetpack joyride, titanium backup has done it too. Try to empty ram and kill processes, and/or reboot, though I would guess you might have tried that already.

If doesn't turn on on its own. When the bug kicks in, the screen doesn't go off if it's manually turned on or If a missed call or message is left unattended. Hope you got that. But yes, I can turn off the screen manually but doing that every time is ridiculously annoying. The bad thing is I cannot know if the bug is active or not without actually watching my screen till the timeout. Annoying bug! I've tried various things and I do not know what's causing this. I'm on stock rom, never rooted.

Stock alarm?....No snooze?

So I noticed on both MA7 & MC2 after a week or so my snooze function has stopped working on the stock alarm clock..I'm I alone or had anyone else experienced this?..Thanks in advance guys for any and all feedback :thumbup:
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda premium
I've had issues as well. Heres what I found out.
Even though snooze is turned on you have to go back in and click the snooze options and save again then save one more time.
When its set to 3 times or more at 5 mins you have to set the alarm to say 7:20 or 8:20 etc... at 7:25 it will trigger the alarm then shut the snooze off for some odd reason.
Yea, after a few days of over sleeping and messing around it seems like with the above will work fine.

Lol yeah I was lucky and woke up ten min's after I hit snooze.. thanks I'll give it a shot!
