[Q] Stay Awake function faded? - Galaxy Note 8.0 (Tablet) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooti

The "Stay Awake" function is faded under Development section. I am unable to check it. I have the tablet plugged in charging.
What do I need to do to enable it? Thanks

Stupid question, did you turn on developer options? Top right of that menu is a little switch.

Unchecking the stay awake while charging setting will not survive a reboot

As the title says, my choice to let the phone sleep while charging won't stick. Has anyone else ran into this issue?
My phone is stock rooted and I can't seem to find an app that is causing the setting to change.

I figured it out. It was the recent update to extended controls.

This has been bugging me for weeks.
With your info, I made a toggle for the "Stay Awake" option. Now it seems to stay off through a reboot.
Thanks!

What is Driving mode for?

On the stock rom there is a driving mode option on the quick toggle settings. Does anyone know what it does or what it is for?

It will read notifications to you, like who the call is from, or who the text is from. I find it irritating.
Please don't turn it on.
It is very, very annoying.
I like it. Except it shut off after plugging/unplugging the phone.

[Q] Keeping Note 2 awake whilst charging

Hello all,
i have doen a quick search and was unable to find anything pertaining to my problem - apologies if this is incorrect
I am posting on this forum after a long time because I have recently bought a Note 2 (N 7100) and wondered if there is a solution to a minor irritant.
I having been using HTC phones for quite some time and in those you have the option of forcing the phone to stay awake whilst charging - helpful if playing music or using maps while driving. That option doesn't seem to be available on the Note. Thus it looks like this feature is part of HTC Sense.
Does anyone know of a way of making the phone do what I am looking for or is there someone out there who might be able to write a program?
Kind regards and thanks for your help.

One touch gps?

Hello there. I'm one of those users Wii turns all GPS/location services off when I'm not using it, but when I want to use gps, I have to long press the gps toggle, click the 2 boxes, then go to Google settings, click location services, turn Wi-Fi on, all that good stuff. Is there any widget or app I could use to turn all this on and off at once? Thank you in advance for your answers friends.

Why shut it off if not using it? It's not doing anything or activating anyhow so just keep it on. That toggle doesn't do anything but tell apps whether or not GPS is available. So if you aren't seeing the icon in the status bar, no GPS is being used. So just leave it on. Mines on all the time.

But that won't cause wake locks and drain the battery? As sparsely as it's used, doesn't seem worth the drain possibility, but when I need it, it's needed immediately, and briefly. That's why I'm asking if what I'm requesting is even possible.

It will not drain your battery unless it's being used by some app or something. Other than that, it's not being used unless you see the icon in the status bar.

you could use llama or tasker to create an action so when you open maps or any other program, turn on gps...and when you exit that program it will automatically turn off gps

Yes, you have to get an app called Secure Settings. I use it for my maps. The only thing is, you have to agree with the location service when it pops up. I don't mind, it only takes an extra second. I also created a widget that toggles location services on and off for the times I need to quickly access it. I love Tasker, it's awesome! I find automated tasks for it to do all the time.

I went ahead and bought tasker, and it's overwhelming and very very complex, but I got what I was looking for! Anything else cool tasker can do?

Ok, after messing with it a few days, I can turn on and GPS when opening an app, but I cannot figure out how to toggle the location services in Google settings. Any suggestions?
