My Z2 isn't going into deep sleep while connected with the SmartBand. Greenify says that Smart Connect and org.codeaurora.bluetooth is running in the background, and i've confirmed with Wakelock Detector and BBS that it's not going into deep sleep with the SmartBand connected.
I tried uninstalling Smart connect and Smartband apps, as well as lifelog, and then sleeping the phone worked and I had no problems. I don't really want to give up the SmartBand, so is there anything I can do? I don't want to greenify the apps because I want the notifications..
You can always go into the smartband settings: I think it is edit settings and disable the motion setting and leave the notification setting checked. I hope this helps m8:good:

Hello,
I am running a gTab with TNT Lite 4.4 and Launcher Pro. I like the setup very much (thanks to all the help found here), but am having problems trying to find an alarm clock app I can set up the way I like.
Ideally, I want an alarm that will open Pandora at a specified time. Barring that, I'd be happy with an app that started the alarm from sleep mode. I don't like leaving the display on all night, even if it's in the "dim" or "night mode". However, it seems that the minute I put the gTab to sleep, the clock stops ticking and the alarm doesn't go off until you wake up the device (the wake updates the clock to the actual time).
Am I nuts, or is there some kind of bug? Are there alarms that will wake up the tablet from sleep? So far I've tried "Alarm Clock Plus" and "AppAlarm Pro" without success.

This is a bug without doubt - what is the point of an alarm that
you have to turn on
YOu might try some of those keepalive programs in the market, but
my experience is that, like most android apps (and android itself
for that matter), they don't really work perfectly.
Here's what I've come up with so far. It seems to be working, although with some caveats.
I installed "Load Monitor" and enabled what they call "Wake Lock" which, according to the FAQ, prevents the tablet from going into a deep sleep. It seems to allow the clock to keep accurate time while screen is off. It also might help people's WiFi issues. I don't know the effect on battery life, but plugging it in while it's on the nightstand isn't a problem.
I've found that Pandora needs to be closed, not paused. Sometimes it'll work when paused, but not always.
I would be happy to hear anyone else suggestions as I'm certainly disappointed in how this is working.
EDIT: Also, you need to have the volume turned up loud enough manually. If you let the app set the volume, it's never loud enough.
App alarm pro is what I use on my phone. It can restart the app if you were using the night before. I use it to wake to Howard on the Sirius XM app and the developer is friendly and responsive. I haven't tried it on the gtab yet as my night stand isn't that big!
hi!
I have a sony xperia tablet s and yesterday i got the upgrade to JB
I would like to keep the wireless connection on while my screen tablet is off. I tried the wireless option and i checked "keep the wireless on always" but it doesn't work.
Is there a way to do that?
thanks
Try some of these apps https://play.google.com/store/search?q=wifi+lock&c=apps
Haven't tried them though
Advanced Wifi Lock is the best one out there. Has different settings aswell.

yes! it works even the free version.
Like this i can download file all night long!
advanced wifi lock disables sleep.
sleep policy is disable wifi when sleep is triggered.
sleep is triggered when hitting power button regardless if synching or uploading is going on ignoring sleep prevention mechanic thats build in many apps.
most android devices are build to only put screen off when hit power button leaving sleep on untill not used anymore.
advanced wifi lock is btw huge batery drain you won't notice extended batery life improvements from 4.1.1 if you gonna use advanced wifi lock.

Not true. If you enable the option "disable wifi after period of time" (it isnt named exactly like that), wifi is automatically switched off after 20 mins of afk and the tablet goes in to sleep mode.

wifi won't turn back on then not sync for hours unless turn tablet on and turn on wifi.
and will interfear more with syncing stuff that way then not having advanced wifi lock installed.
no idea whats causing it but i don't have advanced wifi lock turning of screen does't put tablet in sleep anymore.
have no apps running and custom homescreen apex launcher.
wifi has been on for 2 hours non stop

If sleep is being prevented should wake lock detector not show this ?
apearntly google+ was uploading file in background which has ability to prevent sleep, and if sleep is not triggered wifi stay's on.
so guess wifi working fine now as long apps that upload files or sync have ability to prevent sleep.
Hi everyone,
I opened a discussion to understand how Sony Smartband works inside the core.
I don't know if anyone knows exactly, but one functionality that makes me think is the Sleep tracking with Smartband/Lifelog.
I realized that the smartband is capable of capture when we sleep and measure the deep sleep time daily, but anyone know how can it capture this information?
1- I see that the smartband only sees after midnight and so on, some times I sleep at 10pm, but it always marks as 00:00am, is there any way to monitor it more accurate?
2- Another curious feature is, how Smartband knows that I am not in a deep sleep and wake me up during the period I set to wake me up?
Anyone tried to create an app to access these functionalities outside the Lifelog? I would really appreciate that my smartband vibrates in my wrist every time I receive SMS, Whatsapp message and others... and will be best if we can change the vibration for every notification like:
Whatsapp = 1 short vibration
SMS = 1 long vibration
Incoming call = Constant vibrations until I accept or reject the call
Thank you!

Don't you have Smart Connect app installed? You can have your Smartband vibrate for notifications with that app

Hi,
Yes, I have the app, but in my settings just show to vibrate when someone calls me...
Can you show me the path to vibrate when SMS or Whatsapp message arrives?
Thank you

It's the second highest option for me, it reads "notifications". Enable that
Edit: Could you please show a screenshot of your Smartband app?

Now I'm curious in how to improve the sleep measure.
Today I woke up at 06:20 but went to sleep again 5 minutes later, it won't mark the 1 more hour that I slept.
I'm not so happy with this measurement
Maybe you have auto night mode on so it switches to day mode and does not recognize sleep any more? Mine works even when I'm awake whole night in night mode it shows that I have been awake.

Hi,
My night mode is set to 11pm to 9am...
So it's strange that smartband captures just my sleep from midnight, and if I sleep until two hours or more after night mode (11am) it register ok.
The problems are :
I cannot wake up and sleep again
It don't mark my sleep before midnight
Example : if I fall asleep during the evening, it's supposed to capture this sleep time too?
Thank you
From my experience the smartband will only log your sleep time while on sleep mode, which you set to every night at the interval of your choosing. In your case from 11 pm to 9 am.
However you can always shift the smartband from day mode to night mode manually by long pressing the smartband button, it will vibrate and activate night mode at any moment during the day. After changing to night mode it will log your sleep cycle no matter the time of the day, as long as you keep it on night mode. And it's not magic either, I've stayed up late watching TV very still and the smart band thought I was "light sleeping" just because it activated night mode (due to time) and I was not moving much!
And for instance the time you woke up at 6, and the smart band switched to day mode you can just long press the button and it will shift the smart band to night mode again, and register the extra hours you sleep.
Hi Adolfo,
Thank you for your tips.
I was testing the sleep feature and I figured out the same of you.
Sometimes I went to bed and spend hours watching TV, and if I stop to turn over, it marks as light sleep.
Thank you again, from now on I can measure better my sleep and some other features.

Dear all,
Does anyone here know how to use Tasker app to auto enable and disable the always on display (AOD) setting in a specific time?
I noticed that enabling AOD consumes lot of battery, the battery drained 15-20% when my phone was idle overnight from 12am-7am. After I turn off the AOD, the battery drains only 5% overnight.
I'm thinking to use Tasker to disable the AOD when I'm sleeping to reserve the battery, and turn it back on after 8am. Unfortunately I couldn't find anything in the Tasker app that allows me to do so. But I'm able to do this to my previous Samsung Galaxy s7 edge. Maybe I missed out something when I tried to do that for my LG G5?
Is there anything in the Secure Settings app that might help with this? Worth investigating - haven't rooted yet (just whilst I'm getting used to phone and working out pros and cons) so can't check for you.
For what it's worth I just turn phone over which switches off AOD, easy to turn back to check time in dark...
Yeah I didn't notice that my AOD would turn off when I turned it over till later and thought that was a smart implementation for it. Seems very intuitive.
I'll revive this thread, as I'm looking for a tasker solution too. Is there any way I can disable the AOD via Tasker? I've a H850, stock nougat, rooted.
Try this method:
https://www.reddit.com/r/GalaxyS7/comments/4knout/always_on_screen_only_while_charging/
But replace "aod_mode" to "enable_ext_display_on_lcd_off"
I may be a bit late to the party, but you really don't need the paid version of secure settings app to toggle this setting on Samsung. Just run the following shell commands from tasker (make sure you check the "use root" box):
To enable:
Code:
settings put system aod_mode 1
To disable:
Code:
settings put system aod_mode 0
If I've understood correctly there's no need to hibernate anything in order to user aggressive doze. So I don't use hibernation at all, but instead would like to user aggressive doze.
I'm rooted and have checked the on-the-go mode. I have also enabled the notification.
But there's no doze notification after the screen has been off for few minutes. How do I know if it is dozing or not?
thanks

I use Automagic (same idea as Tasker, but I find it much easier to understand and use). It has a trigger for when the phone enters doze mode (and another for when it exits). I can use these triggers to perform conditional actions like enable/disable Bluetooth/WiFi etc., or, say, make a sound, send a message to my Pebble watch, etc. In my case (unrooted phone) I have it make sounds. Using Automagic to do this kind of stuff does not seem to mess up the phone going into/coming out of doze mode.
You can also enable a Greenify notification that shows when the phone goes in/out of aggressive doze...

Thanks. It seems that it works now. I just needed to wait for a longer time.
Just remember that doze is not a full replacement for hybernation. It may prevent wakelocks but bad apps can still run background processes loading CPU and consuming battery when phone periodically wakes up from doze as well as every time you are using your phone.
