If you leave it face down believe it repeats... It does come and go quick with screen on though.I think it works but I didn't realize the edge screen lighting only lasts for a couple seconds. I don't stare at my phone so I'm not seeing the edge screen when it happens.

I know this is probably too late to have any value but I have had luck in some of those instances by putting the drive in a plastic bag and then the freezer for a couple hours. Add it to your computer and if it spins up copy as much as you can before it get warm and stops working again. Repeat until you get as much as possible before this fails.
Never considered turning the notification off. I may need to do that cuz it's driving me crazy. But what's ridiculous is that the notification seems absurd/inaccurate given that it's reporting an excess yet when going into the optimization settings it reports that it's 99% optimized. How & why is operating at 99% optimization soliciting an error popup?
Thanks, I have heard of that, but have not tried it. I just may though.
Well, this has reached a new level of annoying. I turned off notification under the advanced settings for battery but I'm still getting the same alert. I may need to do another fdr.
One of the reasons for the plastic bag. I have an external method of attaching drives so the only damage might be to the drive that is already not working. I repair computers and have used this method numerous times - Zero negative effects, close to 100% ability to spin up the drive. If the original damage happened to be in catalog sectors other software might be required but that is rare. Usually I am able to image the drive before it again stops working and then get back almost everything. Only real issue I've had was with mac drives (my cloning is done on windows machine) where I get everything but their (in my view) silly iPhoto software does not store photos normally but in a database I can recover but not open.
Long press on the notification in the drop down when it comes up and turn off notifications there.
Update: after doing everything to turn these notifications off with no relief, I decided to try a different approach. Looked for seldom used apps that seemed to use resources. One app seemed to be the culprit (VeryFit Pro). I uninstalled the app and reinstalled it. I have not gotten the notification since even though sometimes optimization is only 90%.My battery has been fine so far. The thing that is driving me crazy a persistent Device Maintenance pop-up (see screenshot). Tried troubleshooting it a million ways sideways of Sunday with no success so finally did an FDR. That solved the problem for about a week and it has now decided to show its ugly face again.
The error makes no sense. It's not an app. It's the system server. Selecting to close app only restarts the phone and soon after, the pop-up error reappears. When pop-up is present and I go into the Device Maintenance settings, it shows me at 99% "optimized"???
