I'm not sure that makes by the same way. MultiROM themes doesn't work normally on the JFLTEXX (I9505), it seems to me.

---------- Post added at 12:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:41 AM ----------

. [MENTION=2719389]z31s1g[/MENTION]

I tried your MultiROM theme, it seems that it works ... to check a little more!

Menu and submenus are identical, so I think that's good. I'll still look and say you.
[Android Themes] z31s1g:
I compared the multirom.xml and the portrait.xml from the S4 recovery you linked with the stock multirom ones: they are identical.

So the S4 multirom recovery is the same as multirom for nexus devices (in terms of the ui), thus the theme will work. Now you just need to "blackify" it...;)

EDIT

[MENTION=2875350]franzroy[/MENTION]

There has been one recent change to the multirom ui - a radio button to duplicate a secondary rom. That change isn't reflected in the theme yet.

Another one was the "run restorecon" button for a secondary rom, which is not included in the 286X_v1 multirom theme. However, it is in the 286X_v2 theme I never released officially:

https://basketbuild.com/devs/z31s1g/Testing

You can either try to run the 1440 theme or you can replace the "multirom.xml" from the 1080 theme with the one from the 1440 theme (also copy the button image "btn_raised_mr_restorecon" after scaling it down).
[Android Themes] Captain_Throwback:
Thanks for the updated MultiROM theme. I've been stuck without your theme for a while since it wasn't updated with the latest changes. Now that it has been, I can once again be happy with my MultiROM TWRP :).

Just one thing . . . not sure if this is scaling related, but I'm using the 1440 MultiROM theme on my 1080 device, and I'm seeing your favorite bug again :eek:.
[Android Themes] z31s1g:
Ah, yes. Easy fix: rename the partitions... [emoji6]

Hi,

I am looking to buy a galaxy S5 via Ebay. I am concerned by some reports of buyer saying the phone stopped working after the paypal buyer protection coverage (ESN turned bad). I don't see my self paying 400+$ for an expensive music player.

I live in Canada, my carrier is Rogers (GSM - requires a sim card). My options are to buy a T mobile or AT&T S5.

Even if the phone is blacklisted, could I still be able to use it with rogers?

Cheers,

JAN

[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dosada:
I have just fully restored my S4 over Odin with a stock image. Unfortunately my phone now makes every few seconds some funny noise. No idea what it is.

My S3 used to do some similar noise and show a read error message.

I know that is not a lot of information but has anyone got an idea what this could be and how to solve it?

TIA
[Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DeepankarS:
Funny noise?

Like?

Erm today My phone made one while i was fixing my phone with Cyanogen mod camera fix. :P it was just a tweet kinda thing.

What is the noise?
[Moto 360] mikie3ars:
So after messing around with a few suggestions of people who did this accidentally. I have been able to repeat it every night.

1. Put the phone on the charger with ambient mode on or off doesn't matter.

2. Go into android wear app on your phone.

3. When the watch face has dimmed on the charger switch ambient mode on,(using the phone) the screen with go bright again then it will dim. Once it has dimmed wait 5 seconds and turn ambient mode to off. The screen should now turn off on the watch.

4. If you put it on the charger with ambient mode enabled wait for it to dim, wait 5 seconds then switch ambient mode off. If the face doesn't turn off you are now able to start at step 3 so that's why it didn't matter how you started.

This is the first time I've had something to contribute, so let me know how it works for you. I'll post a video when I get home, unless someone beats me to it. My build is KGW42R if that makes a difference.
[Moto 360] Andromjb:
This was posted before, but thanks for the contribution. :)

I'm hoping they eventually put an option in the settings to auto disable display while charging.
[Moto 360] mikie3ars:
Ah, my bad. Last I had seen it was a few pages into a thread. Well nobody should have to ask the question on how to I suppose. You have two sources lol
[Moto 360] fylim:
Anyone know how to automate this using tasker? Or some shell script?
[Moto 360] bustanut666:
for me, after i do this, screen turns off... but eventually in the night, the watch turns back on, i think when my phone does some kinda of check or gets a notification, the watch turns back on... so for me its useless..
[Moto 360] MrGuarnere:
Even if the screen is off all night is it safe to leave it on charge all night, especially as it is fully charged after 2 hrs? I've only had my watch since Monday so still figuring out the best practice but I've been charging it for a bit in the evening before heading off to sleep, completely turning it off and then in the morning while getting ready just putting it on the charger to a) turn on and b) charge fully.

I know in the manual it says that it has smart technology to protect it against overcharging but does it not stay hot all night on the cradle?
[Moto 360] pakure:
I would not recommend putting it on charge overnight with the back getting hot and the plastic back being crack prone
[Moto 360] Zhou86:
Thank you for this. Will come in handy when my Moto 360 arrives sometime next week.
[Moto 360] akellar:
Non-issue. The back barely gets hot and even if it does just don't pull on the strap to the point that it causes pressure. Or simply take it off the charger for a minute before putting it on. It's not like its getting hot enough to melt the plastic. You can most definitely charge it overnight without a problem.
[Moto 360] nick.XIII:
I've been doing this since I got the watch but last night after I installed the update the trick won't work. I go through the entire process and all goes like normal, but about 10 seconds after the screen shuts off, the backlight turns on. Anyone else having this issue?
[Moto 360] akellar:
I've noticed the backlight is on but it's still black. I guess at least it reduces the chance of the graphics getting stuck.
[Moto 360] kostin_d:
New update installed and the trick still works. No backlight just screen off.

I noticed that i dont have to be accurate and time 5-10 seconds after screen fades. It works anytime after the screen faded.

Anyway, thanks for the great tip!! :good:
[Moto 360] AuralPsynapse06:
I actually am having this issue. I usually turn off bluetooth on my phone right away, but the watch seems to continue to turn back on with the black screen only, which happened to drain my battery and make the watch really hot. Kinda strange.
[Moto 360] kevinlevrone:
This works for me without any issue, even after the last update from yesterday.

I just put the watch on the charger, then from the phone I set the Ambient Mode to ON, then to OFF and the screen turns off.

But here is the trick that I have noticed: you MUST have no light in the room, or cover the watch screen while doing the procedure. If there is light in the room, it won't work ! I accidentally discovered this.
[Moto 360] abuttino:
There is also a build.prop edit in the development forum that allows you to change a line and when the watch is put on the charger, it does it automatically.

If you don't want to root your watch and you have a rooted phone, I made an app that does the button pressing for you
[Moto 360] gatebil:
So the option to turn off the Display on Charger (Developer Menu) is not fixed?
[Moto 360] abuttino:
Not to my knowledge.
[Moto 360] fylim:
Hi can you share the app pls thank you?

---------- Post added at 02:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:41 PM ----------

I noticed the trick using the ambient setting works does turn off the display immediately but after a while ( not sure how long) the back light comes back. You see a faint back light with screen not nothing showing anything. Can only see this in pitch black at night all lights off

Anyone see the same behaviour?
[Moto 360] abuttino:
https://plus.google.com/109468208780802399420/posts/fZ2YkEkH7aT

[Moto 360] volcalstone:
With the latest update, this method doesn't work anymore. The screen will always turn on with a black screen after a couple of seconds. I don't think I will be charging it overnight anymore and just wait to charge it in the morning while getting ready.

Wish moto would give us an option to use nightstand mode or not. Even when dimmed it's still bright while sleeping.
[Moto 360] Oskar-2:
Everybody could turn it around and have a nice undisturbed sleep or charge it at another place. So why don't you do that?
[Moto 360] danaff37:
It's not the sleeping part that bugs me. It's image persistence, screen life, and backlight life.
[Moto 360] pakure:
I charge it in the morning while getting ready for work. ..no issues with screen on only for 90 mins for little to full charge
[Moto 360] Metah4 Genome:
I have had mine for 8 days, so far so good....my phone gets hotter charging than this does lol

:D
[Moto 360] abuttino:
I was doing a logcat for someone earlier today, apparently the watch is rebooting when placed on the charge!

Might be a soft-reboot, but this is a huge bug.
[Moto 360] jco23:
I too experienced a reboot around 4am while charging.
[Moto 360] P8nt:

--Slumber for Android Wear

Sorry I cant post links (having made less than 10 posts ... :( )

Description

*You must open the app at least once on your watch after installing for it to work.*

Does your Android Wear device's always on feature make it difficult for you to sleep? This simple app shows a black screen while your watch is charging, which allows you to sleep undisturbed, without bright lights from your watch keeping you awake. Simply install the app and set your device in its charger, and the screen will remain dark until you pick the watch up again or tap the screen. Enjoy!

And from creator:

"Make sure the check mark shows. If it's the X, it won't work. Pretty simple."

It seems to work I just installed it yesterday!
[Moto 360] abuttino:
Slumber only turns the display off, not the backlight
[Moto 360] grafias3787:
Turned off while charging

I cannot find anywhere an answer if Moto 360 is charging or not while turned off completely. That woulde sove the above issues. I do not have my device yet to test it myself.

Thank you.
[Moto 360] chrisliphart:
So now the opposite is happening. The screen turns off at night, but if you look closely, the backlight is staying on, though at it's lowest level. I actually liked the nightstand feature, but I don't want the ambient screen on during the day, so I liked the original way it was. It appears that this behavior changed with the most recent update. Hopefully they'll put an option in for the nightstand function at some point.
[Moto 360] Chris_c81:
I too love the nightstand idea. However I don't want screen burn in :(
[Moto 360] thatguyzx:
It does charge while off, but if it has enough battery, mine just turns on once placed on the charger.
[Moto 360] Armazia:
Thisis what happens to me too. The backlight is off for about a minute, but then it turns on for some reason.
[Moto 360] gmlogan:
Look for slumber, shows you to Fischer screen on while charging. Since installing them turning it off, I can simply press button and screen goes if in charge, then touch screen for it to come on for a period
[Moto 360] cj2566:
Would it not be easier to enable Developer options and turn the screen off while charging?

[Moto 360] deprite:
I don't know if anyone can confirm this but my 360 Display turn off while charging when i switch it to silent mode directly before i place it on the charger. (to no vibration mode, sorry i don't know the correctly word as i'am not native English)

Only condition for it is that ambient mode is off.

Little technical background, i'am on newest Software, and use the mini Launcher..not sure if that has anything to do with it :D

After 5.0.1 update, put your 360 into theater mode. Then stick it on charger, screen will come on to signify charging then go out.

Theater mode press side button twice on and twice off.

if i want to turn off the screen (which i never do) i just press the button on the side..what? :confused:

[Moto 360] cj2566:

Since he neither inquired about a solution, nor stated a problem, perhaps HE meant something other than the thread topic.

[Moto 360] TanGU_:
So hey, the Theater mode is good, but is there a way to automate this using tasker or IFTTT maybe ? pretty useless to have the screen ON when charging and you don't want to, this should be an option in the setting for us to make. Motorola didn't think about that ?
[Moto 360] tboom8669:
Hello everyone. I tried to double check to see if this has been said already and it doesn't look like it.

I just got the moto360 and was searching for a way to turn it off while charging. Luck of the draw I put the watch in theater mode and later put it on the charger.

It came on for a few seconds and then turned completely off. Not a black image.

Hope this helps others.
[Moto 360] mirox3m:
^^ Thanks for the tip! It really works, but unfortunatelly after several minutes the baclight torns on without showing the time and battery. I guess it's a bug?!

[Moto 360] SeanBlader:
I can't believe that worked. I've been trying to keep the screen on while charging, and one of the builds made it stop so I enabled Dev mode so I could set that option to enabled and today it was back to off while charging despite the setting saying otherwise. Looks like the label is reversed from the actual setting. So now its staying on again which I seriously prefer.
[Moto 360] burdo:
This looks interesting if you like me would like to keep the screen on but you are unsure because of potential burn in

Use theater mode.

Response

I use theater mode. I have it on most of the time anyway because otherwise my watch is coming on repeatedly throughout the day when I don't want it to. But theater mode keeps the screen from coming on during the night when you're charging it. When you put the watching the charger it will come on briefly and then it will face and go to black. That's the theater mode overriding the night light default setting. I always have embient off so that may also help to ensure that the phone turns itself off. But theater mode is what make sure that my screen stays off while charging.
[Moto 360] JeffMD:
My watch charges in about 30 minutes. I just turn it off at that point. Can't believe with all the improvements, the charge mode is still this screwed up. The backlight does have a life span, and it also creates heat.
[Moto 360] :
Exactly. For me theater mode is the ONLY option and it works
[Moto 360] JeffMD:
You aren't looking hard enough. The screen is black, but the backlight is still on.
[Moto 360] :
You may very well be correct, I was noticing that last night. Nevertheless, it was barely noticeable compared to using slumber. It certainly is a poor design though, if it is still slightly on.
[Moto 360] :
So every day you are just turning the thing off at night?
[Moto 360] JeffMD:
I usually turn it off before then. When I am around home I don't need it so I charge it up and power it off for the next day. No sense in un-needed battery usage.
[Moto 360] chaco81:
i just cant understand why this device is unable to charge when OFF...

placing it on charger when OFF, turns it ON...

SMH
[Moto 360] JeffMD:
chaco, there is probably a technical reason for it. Maybe the lithium battery safe guards are baked into the firmware? Phones are technically "on" when being charged too, they don't boot into the OS but the firmware is up and running. The watch probably has a lot of its bios level operations in the OS software so the memory modual for the firmware can be as small as possible. My pebble also boots up fully when charging.
[Moto 360] Console~:
I don't understand why we need apps and workarounds that don't work properly or actually turn the backlight off.

How hard is it for Motorola to give us an option to DISABLE THE BACKLIGHT WHILE CHARGING?

Actually, since the option already exists in the developer menu, they don't even need to modify the interface, they just need to check the value of the setting and put in a line of code to actually turn the screen off.

Gosh, can't force the screen on (without apps) during the day (when we want it) and can't force the screen off at night (when many of us don't want it).

*sigh*

[Moto 360] :
Your response and video aren't helping me figure out how to resolve my issue.

The spirit of XDA is assisting... You must have missed that part.

Matter of fact, I'm inclined to think your screen also doesn't entirely turn off, and you don't realize the backlight is still on dimly lit.
[Moto 360] negriton:
Wait for 5 or 10 min and see again...
[Moto 360] marctronixx:
Gentleman,

The watch is dark. Completely.

I have a spare charger I keep with me and the watch sits on the charger a few hours a day at the job and of course all night when I'm home.

There is no backlight turning on. The watch has been on charge now about 2 ish hours and no backlight.

I know what the backlight looks like when it's on, and it's not. Good grief :crying: trust me. :fingers-crossed:

For record, im using a nexus 6 stock, never rooted. Launch day goog purchased. Both have 5.1.1. I have ambient on, gestures on, wifi on, everything on, even stay awake when charging is on.

Seriously the watch is completely dark in the cradle. I'm not going to record an hour video to prove this.. The backlight does not come on in 15 seconds or at all.

Not sure how else I can prove this... :good:
[Moto 360] ShadowVlican:
mine goes completely dark as well... i've even counted 15 seconds to see if it lights up again, but it doesn't

theater mode works great
[Moto 360] :
You miss the point. I could care less about you proving anything. I simply asked for you to explain How you are getting it to go dark. In theater mode, docked, after a few seconds I get a barely lit backlight still. Mine will not completely turn off.

Once again, the entire point was to find out what to do to get it to go dark, not have a competition or Have you prove anything.
[Moto 360] marctronixx:
man calm down. see all those emoticons I posted? I am happy as hell and you should be too. relax its the internet.

[Moto 360] dbeedle:
I find that the watch must be dim in order to turn off the screen when placed on the charger. Place it on the charger, it comes on in dim mode showing the charging screen, then goes dark. If it is bright enough in the room it will come on in the bright mode and will only go to dim.
[Moto 360] cheetah2k:
Place the Moto360 on the charger, switch to theatre mode. done.
