Hello,

I'm currently using LineageOS 17 on my device and I often have to wake up the device to use KDE-Connect on my computer (for example, for SMS or to send files). It's not always the case but I can't figure how to change the settings.

I don't have this problem on an older version of LineageOS (14)...The device is always visible on my computer.

Do you have a solution for this ? Thanks a lot !

I believe this is a limitation of Android 10 and higher , so I assume it will be the same in LOS 17 and up, unless there is some way to override this on the Android side.

You might try excluding the app from battery saving, this seems to work for me on my Android 11 phone.

Hi,

I selected "Not Optimized" in the battery section for KDE Connect, but it doesn't seem to change a lot. My phone stays unconnected most of the time. Thanks for the suggestion !
