Disable Magnet Screen Off - Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Does anyone know how to disable to magnet screen off/on?
When the cover case is flipped open or close, the screen turns on off automatically.
I would like to disable that.
I have a third party case.
I tried un checking the option in Device ---> Accessories without any success.
Any app or xposed mod?

Haven't found one.
Wanam's Xposed module has the option too but it is ineffective on the Note Pro.

Or get another type of cover like the Logitech case. That does not shut off the screen when closed.

Anyone got Power Switch working?

I've tried a bunch of different "smart cover" type apps out, and I can't get anything to work. I saw in the Best/Worst apps list that Power Switch is good for the Infinity. I was unable to get it working, anybody else have success with it?

Don't know that app but I use Screen off and Lock...works great to switch off screen.
You don't have a keyboard dock, do you? I just close my docked tablet to put it to sleep and open it again to wake it.
My cover is still in the mail, but when I tried SmartCover and used my finger to cover the light sensor, it worked like it was supposed to. The only thing i didn't have the patience to deal with (yet) was getting the settings right for low light situations; and yes I did check the box to make it know that after a certain time, it would be darker and thus not be as sensitive. When my cover arrives, I'll try again and let ya know :laugh:
I have tried every smart cover-esque app I can, and none seem to work on the Infinity.
I use Proximity Screen Off Pro on my TF700 (needs rooted)
after install, you have to choose "ambient light sensor" (not proximity sensor), hit start service (in app) and reboot.
works great in TF700

Works great for turning it off. How do you get it to turn the screen back on?
I use Awesome On Off Ultimate. I tried other similar programs, but this is the best one so far.

[Q] How to add the flip cover functionality (screen on) on CM12???

Hello there, I just got myself a flip cover, and I would love to have the functionality that turns the screen on and off when you open or close the cover like on CM11S but on CM12.
Does anyone know if there's an xposed module or something like that???
Thanks in advance!!!

Phone wakes when moved or shook.

As the topic says, my phone wakes from sleep, and the display turns on, when the phone is laying flat, and I move it slightly with my finger or shake it (by sitting down close to it on a soft surface for example). Any of you guys had a similar problem och would know how I would go about troubleshooting this?
Note that i can't wake the phone by waving my hand over the light sensor.

Try to start it up in safe mode and see if it still persists. If it doesnt, then it means a app is causing it to wake.

Thank you
It would seem that Peel Smart Remote is the culprit. The phone only wakes if I leave Peel running in the background.

Do you use the app? Peel indeed wakes the phone when you leave it open. you can try to use an alternative remote controller app and disable the peel app (or delete if you have root)

(dont have the peel app myself)
EDIT: oh and i see there is a option in peel that says "auto display remote control on lock screen"
try disabling that first.

I think I'm one of the few people who likes Peel ?
But it's good that I found the problem so I can stop the app when not using it.

S view cover display on third party cover

Hi all,
I have a third party flip cover on my s7. It looks exactly the same as the official. The settings, I believe under accessories, for s view is automatically hidden, because the official flip cover has a chip in the cover which activates the setting.
My question: Is there any bypass so S View works on third party flipcovers? The setting is there, it only needs to be activated.

I had an issue with an official not working and found out when I debloated my phone, the NFC stuff got wiped. If your NFC doesn't work then the s-window wouldn't either

Well, what I am looking for is more the setting for S View. So I can manually activate it. I have seen it under Marshmallow and under Nougat it's hidden. It's too bad I can't post an image, because I am new.
I tried to activate NFC, it works but nothing S View related.

Question Any way to fix accidental touches when phone is in pocket?

Hi guys!
So, I've been using this phone for a while on stock ROM and I noticed that the screen automatically turns on and there are random touches when my phone is in the pocket. Today, it got so bad that my phone went to the camera app and took some photos, switched to video and recorded some videos while in the pocket.
I have already enabled accidental touch protection in settings but that doesn't seem to work. So, basically, I was wondering if someone managed to fix that, perhaps with a third-party application.
I also have root so if there is an xposed module or magisk module to fix this, do let me know.
Thanks in advance!
Use a case with raised display guard (as you should anyway).
Turn display away from your skin.

already use one and I don't like keeping the display away from skin because then I have to turn the phone around after taking it out from pocket.
I disabled double tap to wake for now because of this. I really hope they fix this bug on One UI 5 but I doubt it.

Disable the tap to wake and lock feature, if you use Always on display select its tap to show function. these should solve your problem.
