I'm looking for an app that allows me to schedule a restart for my fone... anyone know of one?
That's a good idea. I was thinking just yesterday that my wife would benefit from this. I checked her Hero the other day, and it was on 620 hours of up-time.
holy crap, the last phone I had that would stay on for that long and be stable was my Excalibur
my blackberry was never powered off or restarted unless i flashed an update.
Actually, I left my last phone (ZN5) on for weeks (maybe months) without restarting. Never needed to.

CT Scheduler.
It's in the Android Market. Some are reporting that the reboot and shutdown functions do not work. I think their reports were premature. I got it to work, but you have to let it fail a couple of times until it asks for Superuser Permissions (therefore, root is required for this function). Once you select 'Allow', it works fine. Strange, but it works. It's a well designed scheduler. Very straight-forward and easy to use.
Edit: You will also need to have the Superuser Permissions app installed as well in order for the restart and shutdown functions to work.
I don't know if anyone else has come across this, but it seems that I can't get Tasker to actually stay running in the background - it loads up and allows me to create profiles etc, and after clicking the green tick to apply, the Tasker notification appears (to allow it to stay running), but after a few seconds it disappears. I've tried this both with profiles in the app, and after a clean reinstall of the app with nothing setup, and have the same experience.
I'm going to email a bug report to the developer, but just wanted to see if anyone else had also had this issue, to try and figure out what the cause is.

Could you tell me - are you both running stock ICS, or a custom ROM?
Stock Galaxy Nexus CDMA
There's a number of threads on the Google support group for Tasker re ICS issues, including notification icon disappearing. Pent's waiting on ICS for his Nexus S to look into it further.
I'm due to receive my GN tomorrow and am a *very* heavy Tasker user so will be interested to see whether I hit any issues..
Either way I have faith that Pent will sort it; he's never let us down before
the icon disappears sometimes for me but when a profile kicks in the icon comes back, so I think it does actually run. For me anyway.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
Running fine for me, stock ICS, light usage (very new)
As for alsex87 I only have an icon when a profile is doing something.
Tasker work perfect in my phone.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using XDA App
Works fine on my GN too. Agree with other comments that it comes back when profiles change. So I'm pretty sure it's still running.
Well it's looking good so far for my setup; had to tweak tasks setting volume levels as I moved from an Atrix but everything else seems intact (including deactivating the lock screen when in 'sleep' mode). Will know for sure by the weekend.
Re: the notification icon, I have run in foreground unchecked and no icon showing. Doesn't seem to have had a negative effect so far..
It doesn't work for me. Same thing. Allows me to create a profile, but then keeps crashing.
Won't run at all for me, I was assuming it was an ICS compatibility issue. I kept waiting for an update but when I never got one, I figured I would google it. Well, I found here that it's working for most people, so I don't know what it is that's wrong.
I am a heavy Tasker user too. Just got my profiles installed. The "home" profile (wifi near) activates, then both the Tasker icon and my "home" icon disappear.
As a side question is there an easy way to copy the backup files from an old phones sd card to the Nexus? The SD card folder doesnt show up when I plug into my computer.

I've seen some people leaving it in MTP mode, but I have the best luck transferring files in PTP mode. When you plug it in to a computer, select the various modes by clicking on the USB symbol in the notification tray. Just don't switch it up while moving data.
This isn't immediately pertinent, but Locale (which I'd consider the predecessor to Tasker) seems to work fine. The only problem I have is that I can't split notification volume from ring volume (I silence emails at night but leave ringer on), but that's not Locale's fault as ICS itself doesn't seem to offer the option.

Pent now has ICS - expect reported / found issues to be resolved with the upcoming v1.2 release of Tasker per http://groups.google.com/group/tasker/browse_thread/thread/e3a1ec4dd8e30a0a
Tasker crashes for me when I try to launch it. Running a Sensation with Android 4.0.3.
Was just wondering if anyone with the T807 10.5 tablet might want to share any news as to gaining root for our devices. I've begun feeling like the bastard child over here. This is my first tablet and I love how well it's performing. I just really hope that the processor in this model is not worth anyones effort to try to work on.
At any rate, should anyone want to share any news or any other info on the T807 model matbe this can be the place to start ! I surly can't be alone .. can I ?? Maybe we can get some sharp developers attention.

Battery is not an issue. I've only had mine two weeks. I watch a lot of videos on CNN and YouTube. When I first got the tablet my battery did seem a little sluggish. most likely the result of all the crap that was being downloaded automatically the first day or two. I noticed now that after a few cycles of charging things have settled down and I'm getting adequate battery life. to be honest this tablet is a beast and I love it. I've watched close to an hours worth of videos this morning only down 7 percent. maybe you have some rogue application running in the background ?

I got mine right when it was available from sprint and at first there was one other person on here looking but the number of people are climbing everyday. Hopefully the firmware is released soon and we will have root shortly after.

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF U DAMAGE YOUR DEVICE OR DELETE DATA....PLEASE ATTEMPT THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK!
first i suggest reading through the thread linked below so u will know what i do...long story short though there is a user here by the name of @BDA_Rival who basically did the worse thing possible by trying to root his SNAPDRAGON 807 with an EXYNOS 805 cf auto root and as u may have guess ended up soft bricking it (its hard to actually permanently break it...although the fact that the odin firmware is unavailable at the moment is a bit of an issue). The ONLY reason i'm even suggesting this is because there is a known working way of getting the tab back booting & worse case u can return it & say it messed up during an over the air update or something. Ok...so what ended up saving the other guy was twrp for the NOTE PRO 12.2 905 LTE which is not only snapdragon but apparently uses the same partition structure (just to be clear...twrp only caused the device to become bootable again but does NOT actually function properly most likely due to different display drivers). So....with all of that said it is QUITE possible that the cfauto root file for the P905 could be used to root the sprint/verizon (full disclosure...the other users tab was a sprint variant) version of the tab s! Did i mention that there was a catch...well even if this does work due to the nature of how @Chainfire root method works u will be left with a copy of the stock note pro recovery instead of the origial 807 version which most likely will NOT work combined with the fact that there is a no cwm or twrp for your device yet (should be an easy fix if we could get the devs attention) and u will be left with a device that boots possibly with root as well but WITHOUT recovery.

^807 root brick thread (advise reading before trying...its only 2 pages long)
just wanted to add...the user tried the suggested autoroot in post #6 but that didnt work & the one mentioned here is linked in post #14
Id love to root, but I am perfectly fine holding off until we have our versions firmware available. Root is another thing (as I've noticed lately with phones) that I have seen, where users can obtain root with other similar models. Having TWRP from the Note Pro work is going in the right direction for us.
I'll definitely be watching the thread you linked. Thanks for your post.

I usually get 4.5 days per charge with 7 plus hours of screen time. Lots of Web surfing on network and youtube. There is a trick to condition your battery when you first use a new device it solve your issue currently.
I always setup then use my new device until the battery dies. Then recharge fully before the next use.
My setup includes tuning the sound, I disable all click tones and vibrations including touch vibration
WIFI
WiFi alway on, ALL Wifi >Advanced options disabled
SCREEN
The display I set to 25% then set to auto
Screen timeout set to 30 seconds
Smart screen disable reading disabled
Reading mode Disney
SYNC ACCOUNT
Gmail sync all disabled (when I read my Gmail I manually sync)
I have two email accounts I sync automatically for my business
GPS
GPS disbled unless in use
Disable locations and notification for all apps expect Google maps
MESSAGING
Messaging notification on but sound disabled
WIDGETS
Weather widget set to refresh hourly (this is the only widget I used which syncs)
No Facebook Twitter or other accounts , If I had them I would sync them manually
I also have a cover with magnets which disables screen when I close the cover
The procedure has become second nature for all my new devices
SG Note OG , note 2 and 3. On these phone I get 7 plus hours of talk time per day mostly on bluetooth with 2 - 3 hours of screen time over 18 hours mostly on the network, and moderate music streaming
I hope this helps

What i do is I turn wifi scanning off when connected to a network. I also set my brightness to 25 percent and keep auto brightness off which works better for me. Smart stay on, adapt display off and set to cimema mode, smart pause off, and debloated some things such as knox,flipboard,buiness+,sidesync since im rooted. Hope this helps for anyone else too!
We need to be careful about these threads-- evidently ALL US LTE versions have the SM-T**7 naming convention, including the exynos AT&T version. As far as I know, the Verizon and Sprint versions are T807.
I have the t807 for tmobile ( non snapdragon )
used the 805 auto root.
worked just fine.
I am not trying anything else, such as twrp and roms

I just bought the 807T from T-Mobile too. When you restart your Tablet holding the home, volume control and power button bring you to a download screen? I don't get that option. Instead I get a image of the android laying down with a exclamation mark coming out of his stomach and the options:
reboot system now
apply update from ADB
apply update from external storage
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition
apply update from cache
Am I doing something wrong?

Hello, im a proud owner of a tmob009 unlocked htc m8 mobile device and after updating to 4.4.4 yesterday night i noticed that the extreme power saving mode was missing in the battery settingss.. Is that normal? Does someone else experience this issue or its an isolated case..?
Below i have some screens...also excuse me for the greek language
Thanks in advance
I think you're alone in this...
Sent from my HTC One_M8 using XDA Free mobile app
I'm afraid I would have to agree with rramey23, extreme power saving mode is present on mine and I'm running 4.4.4. I'd try a full factory reset to see if you get the functionality back.
Also here extreme saving power just disappeared after the installation. I have already done a full factory reset but nothing. What should I do ?
Yeah same here.. factory reset didnt work, but odly enough i found out that the option for extreme power saving is at the tabs.. You can see the icon at the bottom of the screenshot
Also another problem that i encountered after the 4.4.4 update is that my front camera doesnt work at all with videocalls on skype.. it makes the app freeze and crash
Tapping that tab or the three points doesn't work, the phone just remains the same I have tried two factory resets but nothing

Okay this is getting funny..! i had the tab but i never pressed it until now. indeed it does nothing!! What's going on! I hope it's a faulty OTA... I'll be waiting for a hotfix or something,,
Hi,
I have the same problem. I found a german Telekom forum where other users are asking the same question. One Telekom administrator answered this (translated with Google translator):
Hi there. It looks like this. The error could be quickly traced. Meanwhile, HTC has already been informed to provide a new update available. This is done with a high priority. It is, again: Wait in patience and practice. Troubleshooting we can currently say nothing. We have sent to HTC the requirements, there is a new update package put together, then it must be tested again and then carried the new rollout. In other words, an appointment we can not name. But we are aware of the urgency.

These are the instructions for the Note 3 but they work:
With the device powered off, press and hold the Power button until the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 logo appears then release.
With the logo on the screen, press and hold the Volume down button until Safe mode appears in the lower left of the screen then release.
Note This may take up to 45 seconds.

That kept happening to me and I finally figured out a solution! I kept having my apps reinstalled from Google and, whenever an app that I had previously used that required root access was installed, Settings would crash whenever I tried to open Security. So, it was a long process but I reinstalled only those apps that didn't need root access. Afterwards, I kept testing to make sure I could still access Security without the crash and, when something was installed that caused the crash again, I knew which app it was, uninstalled it, and all was fine again. I had to reset the phone 6 times to figure this out but all's good now!

Glad you got it working. Would you be able to tell me what app it was? I have the same problem.
I had so many apps that needed root that it just made sense to not have Google install my apps after resetting. I really can't recall specifically which one it was. What I do suggest, which will take a while but is so worth the time, is to make a list of what's on there now and only reinstall like 3 at a time and then check to make sure that everything's ok. If it is, install a couple more, etc. That way, if one screws it up, you'll know which one to uninstall rather than having to reset it all over again. At least if you do install one that needs root and, therefore, screws it up for you, you can just uninstall that one program. Good luck! Let me know how it goes. ☺
Was finally able to figure this out (for me anyway). Its my S View cover. With the cover off I have no problem getting into security put it back on and it forcecloses. I went to Best Buy and tried 2 others and they both caused the security to forceclose as well.
Was chatting with a Samsung Rep where they remotely control your phone and she came up with the conclusion that it is a bad app and wants me to do a factory reset and add the apps back 1 at a time. I will wait till I flash a ROM and do it then. I am leaning towards that it is a app. If every Note 4 with a S View cover had this issue then it would be more widely known.
I had the S cover and that wasn't the problem. Like I said, it was cos I was having Google automatically install my old apps, some of which were apps that needed root like Titanium Backup, Rom Toolbox, etc.. I was able to put Apex as my home, just not apps that needed root. Titanium is the reason I want root so much. Being able to clean up or delete apps I don't use.
Yes, i had the same problem with my s view cover. Once i took it off, i was able to go back into the security settings.

I figured out the app that was causing the issue for me. I use Nova and also TelsaUnread. I uninstalled Telsa and no more problem even with the S View cover.
