Turn off the "Full charge" notification?

**hellosailor** · 09-25-2010, 11:45 AM

I plug my Captivate in to charge when I go to sleep. And then a couple of hours later, it powers up the screen and goes bing-bing to tell me that it is fully charged please unplug the charger.

Surely, I'm not the only phone user who plugs it in to recharge overnight--and doesn't want my phone to wake me up to discuss that!

Is there a way to disable the charge notification?

I am having the same issue. Until I find the setting I have created a Tasker task to disable that notification when it hits full charge. Hopefully someone will post here were to find the setting to disable this.

Go to the dialer pad, and enter the following: *#197328640# to enter service mode. Somewhere in there should be a setting to disable this pop up. If you find it, please post.

Looked,, I don't see it...

Is there any reason you would actually want to unplug it as soon as it's charged? Is that bad for the battery or something?

Would you mind posting your Tasker profile settings. I've tried to create something in Tasker to disable the notification, but I'm not well versed enough with the program.

I'd love to see that too! The damn notice actually wakes me up because the screen is suddenly so much brighter. I use Tasker to dim the phone and place it in silent mode but then the notification undoes the brightness setting.

And I thought I was just "hearing things"... ha..ha...

I'm also very eager to find out how to kill this...

Has anyone tried the steps in the above link on the cappy?

yes, but after i enter the first code, press home, clear code, then enter the 2nd code, i don't get a box asking for the SPC code - nothing happens.
i'm wondering that since the JH7 update killed LBStestmode from the dialer, this may not work either from the dialer.

Go into the Dialer and enter *#83786633 then press the Home key
Go back into the phone dialer (clear first code) and enter *#22745927
Now a box will come up asking for the SPC code. Enter 000000
Press the Hiddenmenu Enable radio button.

Verizon uses SPC codes and MSL codes. Apparently Sprint does not use SPC (read further along in that thread) and I am assuming ATT doesn't either. To get into the hiddenmenu I bet you have to request the codes from ATT.

To solve this problem I always put mine on the charger as soon as I get home from work and it's fully charged by the time I go to bed. Even with moderate to heavy use throughout the next day I don't have to recharge it again until I get home that evening. Works everytime!

**Jonneh** · 10-11-2010, 08:37 PM

..So still no working solution for this problem?

**derande** · 10-11-2010, 11:04 PM

why did androidcentral put this thread on their front page when there is still not a valid solution?

**wAnted** · 10-12-2010, 01:59 AM

Cognition 2.2 froyo beta 5.5 cooked room. It removes the battery full and battery low sounds. It also removes the start up and power down att and galaxy s sounds. Made my migraine go away.

**IvanWatkins** · 10-12-2010, 10:19 AM

The stupid thing about this is that they want us to unplug the phone to conserve energy yet at the same time they give us smart phones with stupid batteries that require frequent re-charging.

Go figure...

I just go to the notifications pull down and activate "silent" so that only alarms and media are heard.. then undo in morning. Simple.

**TheBronze** · 10-12-2010, 11:05 AM

I use RingLeader to manage my sound profiles. I have a silent one set up for night time that I enable. As for the annoying screen lighting up, just put the phone face down when you go to sleep...

**myalover** · 10-12-2010, 11:16 AM

My girlfriend mentioned this about her Captivate as well. However, to further the problem, she is having troubles with the phone if she does leave it plugged in the entire night.

The sound didn't bother her so much. But now if she leaves it plugged in over night, her Captivate will turn itself off multiple times the next day. VERY annoying. Any ideas?

I have been using a similar solution. I use a program called "Profile" and have one profile set for "night." It turns my wifi off, turns all notifications to vibrate only, and turns my screen brightness to very dim automatically. This does two things. One, if my phone is on the charger I'm not bothered by the "full charge" alert. Two, if my phone isn't on the charger, turning off all that stuff leaves me with a decent charge in the morning.

Yes. Take it back and get a new one. This is not normal behavior, no matter what phone...
