Always on turning off - Samsung Gear S2

Anyone else have problems with the Always on Display turning off? Is there certain conditions that will turn it off?

It has a set time to be on then it turns off or you would have no battery life

It used to always stay on all the time for me.

Never has always stayed on for me, screen went black after about 20 minutes. I use an app called chime as a work around, got idea from another thread not sure it was on here or another forum.

Tapping toward top of phone turns on screen

I'm noticing that when the screen is off and I tap toward the top of the screen the phone screen turns on. I just noticed it today but it happens every time I tap the top of the screen. Also when the screen is on and I hover my finger toward the top part it selects buttons on the screen as if the sensitivity is high up there. Thinking of returning the phone for a new one but wanted to know if others had this problem.

It could be a problem with your sensors I'd call Samsung or take it back to sprint

I would boot in safe mode and confirm it's not a third party app before taking it back. Also poke through all the settings to be sure motion and accessibility features are off. Safe mode instructions for the s3 or s4 worked for me. I forget how to do it but Google is how I found it

Thanks for the help, I figured out it was an app causing it after all

what app was it?

How's my s6 battery look?

Does this look okay? Just got phone today and this is on my first charge. Been using it non stop. Disabled bloatedware, auto brightness, location services off.

I've since done a fix for cell standby draining my battery... Hopefully it works.

Obviously that would be fine and dandy, however it will keep the phone from sleeping if u just hide the notification...

Yes, I saw it yesterday afternoon. I have no idea what it is/was. The only reason I happened to see it was because I unlocked the phone to turn on WiFi. When I did that, the notification quickly went away. I just assumed that whatever it was trying to update did so with WiFi on. I'd like to know what it was though. I don't like the idea of the phone downloading things without approval.
Maybe an update for your keyboard dictionary? I use SwiftKey and get updates every once in a while. However, it states in the notification what it is so there isn't any doubt.

Welp, guess it doesn't matter anymore phone died, no life in it what so ever... Time to move on to something else now

Disable screen from coming on when I get a text?

Is there a way to dismiss the screen from coming on when I get a notification? I just want the led light to come on.

Use Textra. It's way better than the stock app.

It's not just the texting app though. Snapchat for example does it do. So does hangouts.

Yeah you disable all notification to offer under settings
There is no way to just get a led flash that I know of

All photos come out blurry!

Hi,
So I just hopped back over to team android with the GS7 from a 6s and boy the photos suck!! Almost every photos comes out blurry is there is any hint of motion. I've also tried pro mode and changing shutter settinga etc and still looks like crap.
What's going on?? Is this fixable? Anyone else having this issue?

No one? Should I get a new phone?

I was also going to suggest plastic cover over lens, I take plastic tape to pull off plastic on lens, keeps from a possible scratch on lens and it just works great.
Sent from my SM-G930T using Tapatalk
Thanks for the suggestions but I already have taken off the plastic. It's just weird that this is happening becuase I didn't get this when injad the GS6

Do you have HDR on or set to auto? I noticed that with mine. Turn HDR off and its been fine since.
