Hey everyone.
I'm experiencing a weird issue after updating my S6 to MM OTA. My phone has never been rooted. It's the european unlocked model.
Sometimes, when I try to wake the screen (with power button or home button) the screen takes a full second or two to turn on, and it does slowly, very slowly, like with lag. Then, after a while, it goes away, and the screen turns on automatically, very fast and fluid, like it has always done.
Maybe it's doze? It happened this morning when I went to check the time with my phone. Maybe the phone was sleep during a lot of time and it lags the first couple of times I turn the screen on. I've also read it could be from the themes, but never experienced this with Lollipop.
Anyone else having this issue? Solutions? I have the same apps as before, so I doubt it's an app.
Thanks!!
Do you notice slowness after you're passed the lockscreen? My first thought is an app or system component using too much cpu, perhaps an app that needs permissions and isn't marshmallow compatible to ask for them. Download Gsam battery monitor, it will show you cpu usage time by app. It won't show more specific system processes but it could help eliminate whether it's an app or not.

There's no lag after I pass the lockscreen. Will check if it's an app.
No one else has seen this?

what i found is that, when you try to wake up the phone in a dark room/place it turns the screen on slowly, in daytime it's at normal speed, but yes, there is sometimes a bit of lag between pressing the home/power button and the phone responsing....lollipop was faster and better in this aspect...i hope they fix it in a future update

I think you're right!! Right now, at 4AM here, I've seen the issue again, when turning the screen on in my dark bedroom with the lights off.
The screen turns on very slowly. Tried changing the theme and rebooting and didn't fix the issue.
Then I read your comment and turned on some lights in the room and the issue disappeared!! Seems like it only happens when phone is in a dark environment.
Very weird!!

yes, i think it's more of a feature, in dark rooms it can hurt your eyes, that's why it turns the screen on slowly....at least i hope....because if not then it's a bug hehe

Yes, i believe that's a feature. I tried turning the screen on in the dark, it turns on slowly. Then i tried in the light, and it was faster. So yeah, it's a feature.:good:
Any chance you have the MM feature enabled to stop accidental screen switch on in pockets/bags?

If it's that bad you could always try resetting the device to see if that eradicates it.

It happens with me when i take the phone out of my pocket. Is it doing that because it is coming out of my pocket which of course is dark? Very strange. And annoying. Wish there was a way to disable that.
You can disable the accidental screen unlock in a pocket...

I just tested it out.
It takes about 1.8 seconds in a dark environment and 0.9 seconds in a bright environment. I've never noticed before, until now. Interesting feature.

It has nothing to do with the light quantity from the environment or maybe it is that too but this is not the main cause. The main cause is the fact that the cpu is sleeping(it's in deep sleep mode) when you press the home/power button to wake the screen. Once the cpu woken up then it will respond nearly instantaneously. Then, if you live your phone for 1 minute let's say, the issue comes back. The bad thing is the cpu is returning to the deep sleep state after only 30 seconds or less so definitely there is a huge bug!! The only solution is to change the kernel but my advice is to stay stock especially when it comes to kernels thing. Good luck! Btw, my phone is Note 4 N910F and te behaviour I've described concerns this phone, not S6

I don't really have a problem with this. It's just not noticeable in everyday usage. Samsung has pushed several updates ever since I made that comment. It seems to have been fixed for me. Even if it's not, I don't really care as I don't see any other secondary issues like delayed messages from messaging apps or something.

NightLamp turns your phone into an intelligent night light and clock, allowing you to sleep with ease.
If you need a little bit of light before going to bed, this app is perfect for you! It will automatically fade to black after at a preset time. Woke up during the night? Simply tap the screen or activate one of the sensors to turn the light back on again.
If you need a brighter light to move around the house, just flip the phone over and the flashlight will turn on! Woohoo!
You can control the light using various sensors on the phone:
-Flip the phone over to activate the camera flashlight
-Shake the phone to toggle the screen
-The phone responds to the ambient light, turning on and off as needed
-Voice recognition to turn the light on/off using hotwords
Note: Voice recognition is very beta right now.

***Alpha software, may blow up.***
The Android API that involves camera and sensors is a pain to support on all devices, because there is no unified way to do something like turning on the flashlight. So it would have to be supported for each phone model, which takes some time, so be patient as I work the kinks out.
Please do not give negative reviews due to crashes, because this app still needs testing to support a lot of devices...
If you do use the app, please do shoot me an email about your experience with it if possible
Tested to work on Galaxy Nexus so far.

Since it puts the screen at full brightness for a while, I highly recommend hooking the phone to a power source. If you have an AMOLED screen, the power drain from the app while the screen is dim would be small, but it would still drain the battery faster than if the phone is sleeping.
as I tap on Start, it shows a grey clock on white background but I hear a continuous BEEP once every second almost. Galaxy S4 GT-I9505 latest stock firmware ITV
that's the sound the voice recognition beeps to tell you it's listening.
disabling the voice recognition, the sound goes away as well.
You should also enable the android power saving so to reduce cpu and network usage like it almost does in standby.
Nice little app.

Google borked the speech recognizer code in recent versions (since Android 4.1) with a forced beep sound, I tried to mute it but it doesn't seem to work uniformly across devices, so I will have to change the speech recognition engine in the future.
I will look into power saving, thanks for letting me know!
You're welcome!
very nice UI =)

Added a new version where you can swipe the screen to adjust brightness of the front light. Additionally, speech recognition is no longer enabled by default due to bugs.
Cool app. I ended up using it for reading so I don't have to turn a light on but if I fall asleep then it'll fade down and all is well.
Works well on an Asus TF101 running 4.2.2 (katkiss v224 based on eos4). I can confirm the continuous beep bug too with the volume to silent fix.
One thing that would be awesome down the road would be to have a continuous fade of the display brightness over the course of the time you set. For example say you set the fade for 10 minutes, three minutes in it'll have reduced to 70%. Don't know if it's doable but it's just an idea.

Sounds like a nice improvement, I'll look into it.
WakeUp
With this App you can activate the screen without using the Power Button.
Review on XDA portal
1.2 Review on XDA portal
The screen turns off and the monitoring is activated when you use the Widget to lock the screen or put the device on a horizontal surface, such as the office desk; the screen turns on automatically when you lift and tilt the device towards you.
There is also an option to lock the screen when you put your phone in your pocket; in this case the screen turns on automatically when you tilt the device forward.
It's also possible to automatically activate the monitoring when the screen turns off after the time set in system options or when you turn off the screen with the Power Button.

The application uses a little battery while monitoring because it prevents the device from going to sleep; you can then set how long it will be monitoring the movement of the device: the convenience comes at a cost!
To uninstall the app you need to disable the Device Administrator.

Nica app works good on Sony Xperia E!
work nicely on Xperia S, NXA v3.2 rom
wtf! I installed it and it blocked my phone. When i pick up the phone it keeps vibrating and the screen turns on and off like crazy. I can't do anything with my phone because when i unlock it, the screen immediately turns off.
I put the phone for 10 minutes unattended and it calmed down, so i had time to stop and remove this.
HTC One X, newest stock OTA.
Nice is there a pro version ?
Love it! If I still think it's this good in a couple of days, I'll definitely be buying the PRO version. (As a longtime Nexus One owner who had two power buttons go south, I still cringe whenever I have to hit the power button on any phone.)
Tested & worked on Moto Atrix 2, its almost same as pocket mode feature on some ROM's
I'm currently using an app called Gravity Screen which seems to function much the same.
So far so good tested and working correctly on my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 N7105 (LTE). At first i was worry the screen might turn on when i put it in my pocket while walking.Well, it does not work that way. It will only turn on the screen while the phone on my hand and approach my face. Good... i like it.
i hope the next version can have screen turn off automatically while the phone put on table without motion / while in the pocket.
It works pretty good on my Sony Xperia SP Nice work...
Apart of working as it should, does anyone test the power consumption of this app?. I love the idea but afraid of my battery drain.

From the OP, I thought it was intended to function this way. It seems not, in my testing. I second the request.
I really like the idea of this app, testing it ATM (curious about battery drain).
An idea I had was the option to have an option to keep the sensors active while charging (I don't care too much about battery drain while charging and often pickup my phone during the charging).

In 8 hours of use with Automatically Monitoring Enabled, I had a consumption of about 10% more (Samsung Galaxy Note 3); I think it is acceptable to have this comfort.

So I had great battery life not too long ago but now I can barely make it a whole day. My awake times are very high and I can't pinpoint the cause. I attached some wakelock detector info. Right now I have about an hour and a half of screen on and 16% battery left.

I am having same issue with phone getting really warm. No new app installs other than things like wakelock detector. I can't figure out what is causing it and better battery stats isn't showing me anything.
Add me to the list. Never needed my third battery until yesterday. No out of the ordinary modifications.

Try freezing maps and other not needed Gapps, it solved my long wake times. I also use Tasker to hibernate all my apps then put the phone in airplane mode when the screen turns off then waken them up and turn wifi back on when the screen comes on, battery life through the roof

So what's a normal awake time?
I've had battery problems in the past with other phones but usually wake lock detector can find the offending app. Nothing is jumping out at me this time. Google seems to be using a lot but I would like to keep using those apps unaffected.

Same here I took my phone off the charger at 10pm by 1am I was down to 37% with 17 min of sot, something isn't right, I'll try to grab ss tonight. And yes the phone gets really hot
I just had my G3 replaced after my new one suddenly died on me.
I notice a couple of subtle software changes by AT&T.
Yesterday my battery was on 60%. Before I left the office.
When I got home (45 minutes) I took the phone out of the pouch and it was really hot and the battery wad won to 19%.
First time this has happened to me. Will have to monitor.
I got fed up with it all. I did a factory reset. I'm going slowly re add apps back. I certainly noticed a performance bump after the factory reset. Night and day. I didn't even realize how much it slowed until i reset it.

wake lock detector isn't really a good app for telling you exactly what the issue is. betterbatterystats is your best bet to find out exactly what the issue is - it will tell you precisely what the issue is holding your phone awake.
Sometimes, shutting down and pulling the battery out for a second is all it takes to fix the problem. rebooting doesn't always solve whatever it is...
My phone "freezes" now and again, it always has something to do with me texting, but screen off and on will fix it..and it does get warm when frozen per say...but it will normally fix itself with me interacting with it. But if your guys are not holding it when it happens I can see it draining out your battery stuck at higher clock for no reason...now wonder if I should pull logs....
When I say interact I mean I have to push the power button. Knock on won't work. Similar to the dreaded sleep of death but seems to pull out of it.

Like another user mentioned pulling battery or at least resetting the phone periodically helps with battery and helps keep things running smooth. Using Better Battery Stats and looking at Alarms and Partial Wakelocks is a good way to determine if there is a rogue app killing your battery. A couple good Xposed Modules, if you're not using them or aware of them, are Greenify to help hibernate apps that like to constantly wake the phone and NLB Unbounce module is a good one for if you want to keep your location on and keep Google Now functionality. You can set how often you want the wakelocks and alarms to trigger and with the donate you can do the same with any wakelock/alarm. Just be cautious if using the pro version as some alarms or wakelocks if disabled or tinkered with incorrectly could make the phone unstable. Just a few tips/ideas. I have the VS985 and have had pretty good battery life since getting everything set up and debloated. Usually about 17-18 hours on battery (I don't sleep much) and 4-5 hours screen on time. I like the screen on the brighter side as well, which usually I adjust with the status bar so I don't have an exact percentage for the brightness. For some other tips and apps or even maybe something you haven't thought about check out this thread: G3 Battery Tweaks :good:
Factory reset.

I noticed my phone was getting warm in the pocket too, with bad battery life. I finally figured out the phone was waking as if it thought it was getting the 'double tap' to wake. I believe you can disable the double tap in the secret menu (3845#*850#)

KeepItOn (KIO) is an application designed to end the scourge of the screen turns off while we are reading or watching something. So annoying, at least for me…
How it works
KIO detect any small movements and prolongs the time to turn off the screen, like if you have touched the screen. Even if the screen turns off, you can always shake to wake you up during a time set by you, default is 5 seconds, and by shake I mean move slightly.
Please test it, rate it and give your feedback.
I will try to attend possible requests as soon as I can.

very useful, thank you. keep your work!
How is the battery consumption?
This goes on back process yes?
how this will affect on battery?
Thank you Sir :good: .. Works good on Lenovo A3000 with andrid 4.2.2
Will motion keep it awake if it's in your pocket and you're walking, or does it use the proximity sensor to prevent that? Will the motion of a moving car keep the screen from turning off?

Yes, this is a background process that reads the accelerometer. However when screen is off the service is running but it is doing nothing.
I am using for two weeks and have not noticed any significant change with the battery consumption.

Is there something like this for Xposed?
"Pocket mode" added.
Due to all the requests that I have had, I decide to add a feature that check the proximity sensor in order to detect if phone is in the pocket, prevent that way that phone stay alive forever in the pocket, draining all the battery.
Please test it and help me make KeepItOn better.
Happy new year everyone!
I've previously turned on the app, set it to "auto start", rebooted & now I've noticed that it was turned off. Maybe this was only to me. By the way, great app.
sir you deserved lots of thanks from me it's great app
I can see advantages to this app and I can see disadvantages too...
Is there any way to make this "app dependant", so like it will only keep the screen on when compared to a whitelist of apps, otherwise it will leave the screen off as normal? For example, it would be very useful to have the screen stay on for reading from a browser, but not when my phone is just displaying the launcher homescreen? I know it is probably asking the earth or close to the impossible but I thought i would ask anyway
New update available.
- Notification Icon
- Minor bug fixes
This update is a big update for android 4.4.2 users since there is a bug on that android version, for that users "Notification Icon" must be always on. More info here.

The first objective of the app is the simplicity, but I will though about that feature and see if it's worth.
I've got notification icon enabled in settings but I don't see the icon in the status bar. Running 4.4.4 on a Sprint Moto X.
Ok this is starting to piss me off and no matter what I try nothing works. I keep pocket texting people when it's in my pocket because the screen comes on when I get a text. This just started a few days ago and I'm reaching the point where I think my sensor is bad. Basically when it's in my pocket and I get a text that damn pop-up comes up and turns my screen on and then "bdbsuchdvfufhdvshdhfhdhfh"
Yeah if anyone can help that'd be great. I've turned everything off and don't use aod
Edit. I found out how to get the pop-up to turn off. But the screen still comes on

I'll try that out. It seems to only come on when I get a notification though. It's definitely not my sensor though I fig that much out

Ok I got it. It was a mix between greenify and my lock widget. I took the lock wigget off and set up greenify deferent and it's all good now.
And as far as the home button the only Sensitivity I found was the haptic feedback. Don't know if that's what you were talking about

i am having the same problem. Phone is unlocking in my pocket all the time for all sorts of reasons - not just notifications. I have the don't turn on if in a dark place like pockets setting to on, have tried locking the screen whenever i push power button, and several other things, but i am butt dialing, texting, deleting and everything else. Very frustrating. Serious problem.
Plus, when i have the phone in my pocket and then call someone from bluetooth headset, it turns on in my pocket, hangs up on them, or turns off bluetooth, or mutes them, etc. Again, wow, very serious, bad problem. How can i get this to stop?
I don't have greenify, and would prefer to not install it.
Is this happening to anybody else? Or has anybody found a solution? I've enabled / disabled any setting that has anything to do with turning on in pocket, proximity, gestures, smart lock etc and the phone is constantly turning on in my pocket and doing crazy things. Today, for example, the phone dialed my wife, paused / played music four times, changed play lists, tried to send a text to a relative, tried to make an emergency call, and changed some settings. This is making me absolutely nuts. It seems as though when a notification turns the screen on, the phone rubs in my pocket and creates "touches" that open apps and trigger events. This NEVER happens when the phone is sitting beside me, only when it is in my pocket. Something is really weird with the proximity sensor in this phone. BTW, I'm using the S8+.
^ Exact same problem with mine in the pocket. I wish functions like the bixby button would disable itself automatically in this situation.
Imagine you being seated in a library and your phone from nowhere start playing a loud music...
That's need to be fixed.
Same here. I've sent various text and calls. Even accepted calls and other stuff while in my pocket. Wonder if it's a bug in a recent update

Have any of you tried this setting in accessibility? Easy screen on was my issue.
Happens to me all the time as well. I have the "keep screen turned off" slider on and the "easy screen turn on" slider off. This is a bad situation. Annoying and, at times, embarrassing. Needs to be fixed!!!
I've been having a similar issue with an S8 to a degree. A text notification would turn display on and worst for me was the phone would ring but answer itself in the pocket or as I moved it pulling it out of pocket. I don't know why but seemed to be worse with certain themes off the theme store. I've noticed that the issue went away when using the default Samsung theme or the 'high_contrast_theme' by Samsung of the few I've tried.
Same here. I had an S7 today did it too. Gotta be a bad sensor or something.
If anyone here uses Textra this setting could help. It was another that was causing my issue. It's been awhile since it has turned on in my pocket but it still happens sometimes. Mostly it brings up my camera.

This happens on my S8+ frequently it's new with only factory apps and limited changes to default settings. I just called 911 while in my pocket and had to explain my self to am angry dispatcher. Never had this problem with any other galaxy phone.
Thx
