N8 - Activate power saving mode

Dear all,
Usually when I go to sleep I setup my N8 phone to power saving mode, however I have problem to desactivate it.
My phone have crashed for six hours until shutdown.
How can I turn off my phone under those conditions? No keys worked.
my regards,

If your phone freezes up completely to the extent that no keys work try this:
Hold the power button down for at least 8 seconds, when it vibrates release the button. The phone should now reboot and behave normally.
I do not know why it froze up in the first place, many things can cause a phone to freeze or crash. More details would be required from you to troubleshoot that problem.

Nokia N8: Possible Power Saving Mode Bug

Dear All,
For the past week, I've change the way I use my Nokia N8. I decided to set it up in power saving mode during the evening. There is no point for it to be on 3.5G if nobody is using it. Unfortunately, I seem to have hit a problem. At the moment, my N8 is using a pay as you go sim card from O2 and this card is in the phone 24/7.
When I activate power saving mode, the phone re-registers with the network and the maximum speed it will have will be EDGE. In the morning, when I take my phone I disable power saving mode and the phone re-registers again with the network.
Having said that, on multiple ocassions, my phone showed some worrying symptoms. For example, a few das ago, when I disabled power saving mode, the phone did not show the 3.5G icon and I could not make any phone calls. The coverage was up and down. You might say that, it did not show 3.5G because you had no 3.5G you idiot. That is not true, where I live, there is 3.5G everywhere.
I was shocked that I could not make any phone calls. After a few reboots and taking SIM card out, I managed to get the phone in working order.
Today, the same thing happened. I managed to fix it just a few moments ago. It seems that the power saving mode option has an implementation problem or O2 does not like the way the N8 registers to the network when you enable and disable the said feature. Has anyone encountered this???

@m80116, this may well be a solution, but could be problematic if in a weak reception area where only Edge is available ? You could lose data connection completely ! I tend to use Dual mode, and generally don't have an issue, but certainly for anyone living and working in a very strong 3 or 3.5G area it may work very well, wish I had the luxury of being able to use 3G Only

E72 "Activate power saving". Consequences????

I want to know DETAILS what happens when I push ON/OFF button and select "Activate power saving".
What are the negative effects of this?
Noise cancellation still works or NOT?
Does GPS work?
What else???
"The Nokia E72 features active noise cancellation and navigation as well as a digital compass."
The latest USER GUIDE says NOTHING ABOUT THIS! I used Ctrl-F to find "power saving". Basically nothing is said what happens in power saving mode!!!!
Languages: English, Finnish

it disables all UI effects (Theme transitions, etc.),
lowers display brightness to minimum. Brightness option in display settings is disabled.
switches the processor to a more power efficient mode (performance is noticeably lower)
instantly turns off connections when they aren't needed (e.g. WLAN connection gets disabled instantly after you open a web page, if you want to open another one then the device connects and then quickly disconnects again). As a result, push mail gets disabled. You will have to manually sync mails as long as power save mode is enabled.
Noise cancellation still works. GPS still works - in the same way as with the WLAN connection described above

N8 - Power Saving Mode

Hi,
I got a bit problem here. My N8 will automatically activate the POWER SAVING MODE once the phone battery goes low. I've set the power saver mode query to "ON" so that the phone will ask wether to activate the power saving mode or not. When I choose "NO" the phone will automatically turn the power saving mode in the background without displaying an icon (the battery icon will appears as a "moon"). The big clock screen saver is set to NONE, the theme effects switch to "OFF" and the light time out will change from 30 seconds (default) to only 5 seconds.
Any idea or help? ThanX!

Deactivate the Power Saver Mode via the power key is not working as well. The phone shows that the POWER SAVING MODE DEACTIVATED but the settings still don't change to normal. So far, this was the biggest problem with my N8. I really hope that the upcoming firmware of the N8 will address this issue.

Using both power saving mode and offline mode caus...

So I am having a very strange problem. I have been using the Situations App (formerly Nokia Situations) to automatically put my phone into offline mode, and power saving mode over night. 9pm to 6:30am.
Recently the phone as started refusing to leave the offline mode in the morning. Even if I try to change the profile manually it says "Unable to change profile". The only way I can get out of offline mode is to reboot.
I uninstalled Situations, and manually put the phone into offline mode and power saving mode. By the morning I had the same issue, stuck in offline mode until reboot. So it's not the App causing the problem. I've tried a soft reset, same problem still.
I also noticed that over-night (from fully charged before 9pm) to 6:30am I used about 70% of my charge. (A combination of power saving mode and offline mode is killing my battery!)
I would have to go to work and immediately put my phone on charge! I.e.. 12 hours of offline + power save has drained my battery almost completely.
Last night I decided to use the Situations App to put the phone into offline mode, BUT NOT activate power save mode.
This morning the phone had virtually full charge and it had no problem returning to online mode. So it's ONLY if I use BOTH power-save and offline. (Tonight I will try using power-saving mode and NOT offline mode to see if it's only the power-saving mode causing the issue!)
If I manually enter offline+power-save mode, and then try to return to on-line/non-power-save mode, relatively quickly, i.e.. Not over-night, everything is fine. It's only over night the problems start!
Any help?
Rob
PS. I also have the problem where using HSPA+ causes my phone to drop from the network and stop being able to receive/make phone calls. But disabling HSPA+ works around this for now, I think this problem is unrelated however.

I have a similar problem. My 808 PureView loses 70% of its charge overnight if I leave it in normal profile without power-saving. To deal with this issue, I started using the situations app to put the phone in power saving mode overnight. That solved the problem (although I never put my phone to offline mode). This is a weird problem because throughout the day my phone doesn't use 70% of charge, but it does overnight while doing nothing!
I have also experienced the second problem, losing cellular and internet connection, on my 808. I have started a thread to deal with this issue.

I believe it is a firmware bug that causes this problem.

Mirroring LG Monitor stuck in Analog Power Saving Mode

I have a macbook from 2006, and just attained an LG L1900J LCD monitor. When I connect the monitor to my macbook using a DVI to VGA Cable attached to a Mac mini DVI to VGA adapter I get no picture on the monitor and the message "Analog Power Saving Mode" appears before the monitor goes black and then switches into sleep mode.
I have used the Switch application to try and fix the issue, and I have also adjusted the resolution many times as it appears my Macbook recognizes the monitor but an image just won't appear on its screen. I just ordered a Male to Male DVI cable and mini DVI to DVI adapter to see if a digital connection would work. Does anyone know if this will work or of another solution to my problem? Thanks.

So I ordered a Mini DVI-DVI Dynex adapter and Male to Male DVI Cable off ebay for very cheap, and to my surprise, this set-up seemed to shake the monitor out of "Analog Power Saving Mode" into "Digital" since its a digital set-up and now I have a fully functioning, mirroring monitor. So I would suggest switching to DVI to correct your issue.

LG Monitor stuck in Power Saving Mode

I just purchased an LG W2252TQ LCD monitor and I am using a mini-dvi to dvi adapter and a DVI cable to connect to the monitor. My macbook detects the monitor, but when I connect it, the monitor enters "Digital Power Saving Mode" and is asleep. No picture whatsoever. - I saw another post who was having similar trouble and he solved it by using a mini-dvi to vga adapter, but I'd prefer to use a digital connection. Any help?

kiamatthews: I bought the same LG monitor for my daughter's MacBook and I couldn't get it to work. Then I read your post and resigned myself to buying the mini-dvi to VGA adapter. Luckily, I stubbornly tried one more time and after a bit of fiddling I finally succeeded in getting it to work. (My daughter has the same setup as you i.e. LG W2252TQ LCD monitor connnected to a MacBook using the mini-dvi to dvi adapter and a dvi cable connected to the monitor.) I'm a relative newbie to Macs, so I'm not sure I've remembered all the steps, but here goes.
When I first connected them, the LG showed the background from the MacBook, but nothing else (no icons, no windows, etc). Eventually I brought up system preferences - displays, and some sort of monitor resolution window appeared on the LG, but it was different than what was on the MacBook. The "displays" window on the MacBook did indicate both the MacBook monitor and the LG, which it showed as 2252TQ or something like that. Anyway, I checked a box labelled "Show displays in menu bar", which then put a monitor icon on the menu bar. When I clicked on that, there was a line allowing me to select "mirror" which I did. Immediately, what was on the MacBook display appeared on the LG. After I picked myself up off the floor, I was able to change the resolution for the LG to its maximum setting and after about 2 seconds of blank screens, it reappeared with everything working as it should.
I hope that the above description is sufficient to get yours to work as well.

Monitor Goes into 'Power Saving Mode' HDMI

I have an LG monitor (IPS237-BN) which always goes into 'Power Saving Mode' when I connect my MacBook Air to it via a Thunderbolt-HDMI connection.
Sometimes it actually connects and I can mirror my displays (or count it as another), most of the time it doesn't. I have used different cables etc. I cannot install the driver because I do not have a CD drive.
Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hi,
Update the the video driver from the NVIDIA web site.
Your PC bios should be 5.29 or higher so that is something to check.

Power saving mode / and broadband disconnecting pe...

I have recently started using the power saving mode and noticed that our BB speed has gone down to 2.4 from 2.9. While I know this is not a big reduction we had a lot of problems earlier in the year with V04 messages cos our speed dropped to around 2 and it took a lot of engineers visits to get it back up to 2.9. Also I noticed that our HH keeps disconnecting (at the moment it says it's been connected for 2 days) although this has been happening since we signed up to BT and not since using the power save mode..
Do you think it is the power saving mode or the fact that the HH keeps disconnecting periodically that is resulting in our speed reducing? I would really appreciate your help as I desperately want to avoid getting the dreaded V04 error messages!
Thanks
Debbie

Hi the variations in your speed are being caused by the restarts of your hub nothing toowith power saving mode you need to find the causes of thedisconections

Power Saving Mode In q10

is there a power saving mode in q10?

This is a Blackberry..... the Q10 is the most energy sipping model with the biggest battery.... you don't need a power savings mode.
If you are nomophobic about a dead battery, consider an MoMax battery pack.

Port flaps when PC is in Power saving mode

Hi Everyone
My Cisco LMS 2.6 installation reports a flapping port whenever a PC running Windows Vista Business is in power saving mode.
While this is not a major catastrophe, my syslog is filling up very quickly with more than 10,000 records within 24 hours.
Does anybody have any idea what to do? Is this problem solved with Windows 7?
Thanks.
- Andre

Whenever a PC/Laptop goes into the following states:
1. Sleep mode;
2. Log on/log off; and
3. Powers on
You'll see in the switch logs four error lines: 2 to report layer 1 going down and up and 2 to report layer 2 going down and up.
This is normal.

When will the Verizon HTC One (M8) finally get the Extreme Power Saving Mode software update?

Other carriers (AT&T, Sprint) already have it, but Verizon is taking forever apparently.
When will Verizon customers be able to download and use this new mode?
Thanks!

I recently bought an HTC One m8 from Verizon, and like many other customers the Extreme Power-saving Feature was one of my keys factors to deciding to buy. I was very disappointed to learn after the fact that Verizon had not included, and has no intention to include the feature in the future. (Mentioned in other threads in the forum). I've read the argument made that Verizon never advertised the feature and never said it would be included with their version of the phone, but they also never went out of the way to warn perspective buyers that the feature, which is part of the m8 phone on other carriers and marketed by HTC as a part of their phone wouldn't be included. When people are researching phones before they decide what to get they read what features the manufacturer(s) have designed and implemented in those phones, not search to find all the things the carrier may have stripped from the phone.
It's impractical and offensive to tell a customer that its his/her responsibility every time they buy a phone from them to dig deep into website forums and look for what they decided to remove from it that the manufacturer had built, and advertised to be in their phone. This is the type of thing that is bad PR for Verizon, and something that will make customers go to other carriers. I don't want to offend some of the nice Verizon employees who want to help their customers and simply don't have the power to correct the issue themselves, but its in Verizon's best interest to either fix their network to work with this feature, or find/hire someone else who will. Doing it soon before the issue escalates and news of Verizon's statement to do nothing to correct the issue for their HTC One m8 customers spreads like wildfire and burns them.
I hope someone at Verizon doesn't let the rest of the company go on ignoring the issue and steps up to find a way to enable Extreme Power Saving Mode on the Verizon Network. Right now the impression many people have is something along the lines of: now that you've bought a phone from us, and signed up for a contract with us we don't care what you want and think.
In the meantime it would be a good idea to enable the option in the phone with a popup message when enabled that reads something along the lines of: Verizon has concluded that in some cases Extreme Power Saving Mode can cause network issues. If you experience network issues please disable extreme power saving mode and return to one of the other power modes. Verizon will continue to research the issue, and will institute a fix if/when a solution is found.

Officejet pro 8500a power saving mode

My Officejet Pro 8500a goes into power saving mode too soon and too frequently. Is it possible to turn this feature, power saving mode, off?

Yes you can go into the setup menu, to preferences down to Energy save mode and turn it off.

Cant get N8 off of power saving mode,

Hey all I can't get my N9 off power saving mode? Also when i try to forward mail says check connection setting? Any help
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Reset is a last resort, removing access points and re-establishing them usually works, if not a reset is quicker than resorting to Nokia Care, but if you do it ONLY backup contacts, Calendar and Notes, you can also sync your messages with Ovi suite, but a full backup and restore will not only take forever, but if you do a full restore you can restore the thing that's causing the issue, so do everything manually apart from the basics. Dial *#7370# followed by 12345 and away you go, if you still have the issue you need the phone to be looked at under warranty
Good Luck
