Help How do you stop alert that rings when battery is full?

Switch to AT&T. When my phone is fully charged I get no sound indication only a message on the screen.

Same. I have AT&T too, so the sound must be a Verizon thing. It does light up the screen for like 5 seconds when it is fully charged though. I only noticed it when I was charging during the day and I saw the screen lit up.
 
I am on T-Mobile and receive no such notification when my phone gets to fully charged. And I usually charge my phone to 100% at night. Never really have time to do it during the day.

Looks like it's just dependent on the carrier for something like this.
 
I leave my phone in the other room when I sleep. It can make all the noises it wants and it don't bother me a bit.
 
My battery life is good enough that I only charge when needed and I try not to charge over night.

To the op, I guess I've never seen this on Sprint but then again I am rooted and maybe that charging notification was taken out by developers because it annoyed the heck out of them as well. The red/green charging light is sufficient, imo, not sure why Samsung needed to put in a notification for charging:banghead:
 
I don't have the battery full notification going off when it is fully charged. Not sure if the screen lights up though as I have it face down on my bed right beside my head when I sleep. Yeah, I know, not a healthy thing to do. I have it on for alarms and beside me as to not to bother my other sibling when it does go off. Enough to wake me, but not my sibling.

In Canada though.

The only comparable problem I have is the phone lighting up in the middle of the night when it is fully charged. I am on on AT&T.

I'm on ATT, no sound out of mine, but the screen does light up once fully charged. My solution = flip it over, problem solved.
 
OK I will merge these 2 threads together as they are pretty much related, to clean this up on aisle 6, you seem to have many options to solve your issue, cheers
 
Ok, so here is my solution. I tried the applicatioins suggested... SHUSH, Light Flow etc. Shush didn't do everything I wanted, and Light Flow KILLED my battery WAY too fast - in my case the battery drain was significant.

First, let me give you a quick summary of my specific issue and what I know to be true concerning the notification.

I need my phone to be on at night, because I need to be able to recieve text messages and phone calls. My wife and I no longer have a house phone and the Cell is our own means of tele-communication. I do not need emails (emails blasts that come at all hours). I also use my phone as an alarm clock so I couldn't (I found a solution) MUTE my phone. Yes, the Battery Charge Completion notification is carrier specific. I'm told by Samsung the the programmng came in all versions/carrier phones. Verizon chose to leave the audible notification in... Or, rather decided not to take it out.

After an exhaustive trial and error period this is my fix for my specific needs.

1. I turn the phone down to Vibrate, which is one click up from Silent on the volume rocker switch. This position doesn't even let the phone give an audible when you put it on the charger.
2. I have my phone set to ring and vibrate during a call. This enables me to be notified through vibration if I'm getting a call from a family member or friend in the middle of the night.
3. I'm now using Alarm Extreme instead of my stock alarm clock. This lets the alarm sound work even though the phone is on silent. This also gives me a great SNOOZE option. The stock alarm does not snooze. The stock alarm clock will go off while on vibrate, but the Alarm Extreme app give me a WAY better "Off/Dismiss" button and has many more tweeks. I REALLY like the application.
4. I still set my phone to DATA OFF and WiFi off. I recieve email if DATA is off but Wifi is on. I'm sure that there is an app to silence email during certain times, but this was a simple pix.

Hope this helps.
 
For those stating that they are on Verizon and have no charging finished notification, do you have system volume turned way down?

I have a rooted phone and just renamed the 2 files

system/media/audio/ui/charger_connection.ogg.bak
system/media/audio/ui/TW_Battery_caution.ogg.bak

while there I also renamed these

system/media/audio/ui/Power0ff.ogg.bak
system/media/audio/ui/Power0n.ogg.bak

There isn't an issue with rooting as long as you don't unlock the bootloader, that's what can cause problems with OTAs. I rooted my phone directly after activating it mostly so I could restore all apps and settings using Titanium Backup which requires a rooted device.

NOTE: You should never delete the original files if you haven't backed them up. I always rename them and leave them in place noting their location so I can restore them if needed. Many times an OTA will fail if it can't find original files which are being updated. I found this out the hard way.
 
You can try automated apps or schedulers like Tasker, llama, etc. Try setting rules/events to disable sound when battery levels hit 99-100% and then re-enable after the full charge. Not sure if it'll work though as I don't have this full charge (everything goes off) notification.
 
No
It aint yours till the warrenty is void.
If your worried about breaking your phone. I am posting this now from my note ii running custume recovery, rom, and kernel with root.
If you can read and have a brain you can root.
Head over to xda and read some of the posts.
 
I'm a Verizon customer with a Note 2 that I purchased early March. I have a Samsung Multimedia Dock that allows me to charge my phone. I leave my phone on it every night to charge. When the battery is fully charged, the led changes to green, phone screen comes on, then goes off after screen time-out. (A minute in my case). There is no sound. All my sounds are set at full volume. Maybe the dock makes a difference? It is plugged into the wall with the original cord that came with the phone.
 
I've been tinkering and think I might have a work around. Again, I'm a Verizon customer with a Note 2. Model is SCH-I605. Android version is 4.1.1

I found that the notification sound for texts can be set separately from the general notification sounds.

First, I went to Settings/Sound/Volume and set my sounds volumes as follows: Music, etc. full volume, Ringtone full volume, Notifications close to the bottom, at about 1/8, System at the same level, about 1/8.

Next, in Sounds/Ringtone and notifications/Default notifications I chose a very low volume tone called Opener which was native on my phone.

Then, I exited Settings and went to my text messaging app which is native on my phone. At the menu for the app, I went to Settings. I scrolled down to Notification Settings which is toward the bottom. On Select Ringtone, I selected a ringtone that I downloaded called Galaxy Note Samsung.mp3. I downloaded that one because I was looking for a free ringtone that was louder than the ones offered native on the phone. Boy, is it loud! Even at 1/8 volume, it's still pretty loud and it plays for a few seconds, not just one quick sound, so it catches my attention.

I have been able to test the text notifications, and they act just like I want - loud and assertive even in a background noise environment. I haven't been able to test the system notification, because I don't get a lot of those notifications and can't figure out how to trigger one. However, hopefully, the battery notification is a system notification and will be lots softer and maybe not wake people up.

I hope this helps.

I'm not sure (and I'm not on VZ) but what about the notification when you plug in the charger, that might be one.
 
I used to get a beep tone when my Samsung Galaxy Ace 2 smartphone battery reached 100%, but since I upgraded from Gingerbread 2.3.6 to JellyBean 4.1.2 the only beep I hear now is when the battery needs charging rather than when it's reached it's full charge.

I actually preferred to have the tone when it reached 100% and wondered if the change was down to the upgrading of the phones rom?

Btw, I have the system notification set to it's highest.

BTW, leaving the phone on the charger after it's full has zero effect on the battery. It has circuitry that stops charging after it hits 100%.

I think that's charger specific. Presumably you're talking about the OEM charger. Of course it's *possible* that the actual charger is built into the phone & the 'charger' you plug into the wall is simply a converter, changing 110 AC into 5 DC (USB power). In that case this would work for any 'charger'.

Personally I like the suggestion of having 2 batteries & an external charger. IMO it's worthwhile just to have a spare charged battery on hand.
