Anyway to add power alarm to note 2 - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note II

https://drive.google.com/folderview?id=0B5rBeZTwlB9SUURlR0hBS29NUGM
I pulled this from my Nuu mobile 1x and was curious to see if it would work on the note 2 with the right modifications. It turns your phone off and on at a time you pre selected and if you have your alarm clock on your phone will automatically turn on by itself and alarm will go off. Just trying to see if it would work or would the app have to be remade and settings be modified to make it work.

If it would work its got a few benifets your saving money on electric. You could charge the phone up until you go to bed then in the morning it would turn on. You wouldn't have to have phone on all night on the charger I'm not sure the actual cost in electric each month it would cost it keep a phone on the charger at night time turned on but you wouldn't have to worry about that anymore if your someone who uses your phone as a alarm clock.

Alarms with the phone turned off

I know Android has never had this function on a phone, but is there a way to make an alarm sound when the phone is off? Something like an action programmed to turn the Gnex on and make the alarm sound... If my old phones could do it, why can't this one?

Immediately thought of this, but it's not compatible with the GN: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=eu.chainfire.nomoarpowah&hl=en
I've had brick phones that have that functionality.
If I under stand you...phone screen off, try tasker
Not just the screen... I mean the whole system off.

All the blackberry did when it turned the phone off is turn off all the radios and turn off the screen. and kill all apps except certain system apps. It really did not power off the phone, as if you left the blackberry in this state indefinitely it will eventually kill the battery. Its like a sleep mode. It really did not turn the system off.
For your phone you could use tasker that to create a task that turns off the screen, puts the phone in Airplane mode and kills all running apps to get the similar effect

I don't know about that. All nokia phones had the alarm go off with the phone completely off. You could even pull the battery out, put back in but not boot, and alarm went off properly.

It powered it off enough that I had a phone at 4% for an entire long weekend (ie killed it to the point it wouldn't power on to use anymore, and had forgot charger at work on the Friday) and it still got me up on Tuesday (and Monday :/). I didn't even actually realize the GN didn't do that as I normally plug mine in over night and leave it on.

You said you put the battery in and the Alarm goes off. Just because you did not push the power button does not mean the phones internal clock is still on pulling a small charge to keep the time, and produce a alarm event at a certain time.
Think of a desktop PC. Newer motherboards can actually turn on/off desktops at certain times even with it being completely off. Why? Because it has a small battery running the internal BIOS that can produce power events from an off state
Blackberry/Nokia probably implement this in different ways, but the fact remains their is something that stays on even when the phone is "off"
That's why as soon as you put the battery in for a blackberry the phone boots and takes forever to boot at that. But when you just turn it off with the power button and then turn it on, its back up running in seconds. The device is designed to always be on...even when it seems to be off.

[Q] Alarm going off in background (after removal from the desk stand)

I have an I9300 with 4.1.2, but this issue started after the 4.1 upgrade...
My phone sits in a Samsung desk stand all night, which really turns it in to a great nightstand clock. When the phone is placed in the desk stand it automatically switches in to the Desk Clock mode, and when I remove it from the stand it automatically closes the Desk Clock view. Now, the problem I have been seeing is that if the phone is still in the stand when the alarm goes off, I can easily swipe to snooze or turn off the alarm. Some mornings, when the alarm goes off I pick my phone up out of the stand before I swipe to make a choice. When I do this, the swipe options vanish and the alarm continues going off for about 15 minutes. At this point, my options are restart the device, pull the battery, or shove it under my pillow before it wakes up the whole neighborhood.
It seems like the Desk Clock app takes over display of alarms, but it seems to have been broken in 4.1+ to not remain open if an alarm is actively going off.
Any ideas or suggestions on how to fix this?

I don't use it myself so these are shots in the dark:
Do you get a notification when your alarm goes off? Could maybe use the pulldown menu to turn it off.
Does it get back to Desk Clock mode when you set it back down? That would allow you to snooze/turn off the alarm.
Put the phone on silence.

Turn off notification for battery fully charged

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

Alarm Clock Control

So I've had a difficult time snoozing my alarm from my phone since getting the 360. Of course this is at 6am and I'm just fumbling with buttons until the alarm quiets. Problem is I seem to be completely turning the alarm off, which has resulted in me waking up an hour late the last 2 days.
The only conclusion I can reach us the fact that my watch is connected. Is there anyway to ensure I'm snoozing/turning off my alarm from my phone? Am I right in thinking the watch is causing this issue?

The watch and phone have completely separate alarm apps. They don't interact with each other in any way. Has nothing to do with the watch.

It's just strange that all the sudden my volume keys don't "snooze", and nothing is actually showing up on my phone giving me an option to swipe for "snooze" or "turn off".
Seems like the only way to get it to stop is to hit the power button and all that does is turn the alarm off. Have never had this happen until the watch was connected. And at the time it happens my watch is docked and doesn't show anything other than the time and change (normal screen when watch is on the charger. Standard charger that came with the 360 mind you).
Guess it's time to do some experiments and see what's going on.
This might be one of threads that could benefit from knowing which phone and ROM you are using.
On a stock Nexus 5, the Alarm clock works the same since I've purchased the watch. On screen I have the option to Snooze or Turn off the alarm with a swipe.

Note 3 running the same alliance rom v1 and stock clock app that I've been running for the past several months. The alarmed worked literally the day I bought the Moto 360. It stopped working literally the next morning after connecting the watch for the 1st time the day before.
The only thing that changed was using the 360. Guess im.the only one having the issue. Once I get home I'll be able to test it out while on the charger.
Perhaps you can disconnect the 360 tonight and see if you face the same issue tomorrow morning.

[Q] Q: Is anyone using the Smartwatch 3 to wake them?

I had a Fitbit Flex as my silent alarm which worked really well until the strap broke and I got fed up being unable to changed alarms when the Fitbit server went down! So I got my new Smartwatch 3 yesterday and found out the out of the box alarm doesn't work in theatre/cinema mode. Bit of an oversight there Google!
So is anyone using this watch to get them up in the mornings?
I tried AlarmClock Extended which seemed to work last night when I tested it after setting up the watch, but the vibrating alarm didn't go off this morning until I turned on the watch with the button (turning off theatre mode).
I'd set my phone to silent which also seems to se the watch to silent! The alarm still vibrated when I turned the watch back on with this though.
Should the phone be in Priority mode perhaps? Or shall I just not bother with theatre mode and turn down the brightness so when I knock the screen during the night it doesn't wake us with the light!?
I have also tried to use Sleep As Android but it is so impossible to configure I gave up.
I use Sleep as Android (SAA) - it's been easier to configure as the dev has updated it, but still takes some time to learn. You can also use the alarm on the watch which usually worked for me, I use SAA because I can configure the alarm on my phone instead of the watch.
Also, I have tilt to wake off so the only time it turns on at night is if I touch the screen--seems to work for me.
Thanks,
I've just taken another look as Sleep as Android and realised the vibrating alarm on the watch doesn't just do it once, it's actually every few seconds increasing in the amount of vibrations. Doh! Thought it didn't work properly! I'm going to give it a proper go again tonight.
Cheers,
Z.

huh! I didnt know that. might have to give that a go myself...
Well, I tried out Sleep as Android properly last night/this morning and the thing woke me up no problem. Bit of a pain to turn off the alarm on the watch but that is probably for the best!
Goodbye Fitbit Charge
Hi!
I am also searching for a good alarm app. The problem I have is that the vibration is too noisy so I wake up my partner. I have tried SAA and it does a nice gentle few vibrations first, but it is so difficult to stop that I always end up in noisy buzzing...
Any other apps you have tried?
Thanks!
