So I'm having an issue with my G3 and I'm not sure if it can be disabled or if there is a setting making this happen. When I'm charging my phone the screen turns on frequently and gives a charging notification sound. It is very annoying. I'm noticing it usually happens once my phone reaches approximately 75% charge and higher. It doesn't do this when the battery is low. I just tried topping off the battery while a tried taking a nap but it kept lighting up and giving me a notification sound. Is there a setting I don't know about?

My phone has never done that. Do you have it set for the screen to turn on while charging?
 
I had a bad charging cable that would periodically lose and remake connections. The screen would turn on every time it did this.
 
I can't find that setting and I looked everywhere. Where could I find it?

I believe that setting - "Stay Awake (screen will never timeout while charging)" is only available in the the Developer Options.

I have that box unchecked already by default. I think checking it would do the opposite from what I'm looking for. Unless I'm wrong.

This is probably the issue.

Happens to me when I use a charger with a loose connection.
 
Loose cable connection, or using a charger not supported by the phone. I use the charger that comes with the phone. If I use one of my older chargers, I will get either slow charge or the device tells me to switch cables.

I am using the charger that came with the phone and I've tried different cables. Same thing happens. Its not the charger or cable. I've also tried different chargers. The phone is not losing connection with the charger but the phone gives frequent annoying notification and turns the screen on while charging. Again it usually happens when the phone has over approx 75% charge.

What notifications are you getting? Maybe you have a third party app that's causing it?
 
Sorry I missed that part. I'm guessing it could be the electrical current fluctuating. Try plugging it on a different power source or use a surge protector. Maybe that would help.
