Hi,
our redmis has hall sensor, so it should be possible to use smart covers like samsung s-view or lg quick circle.
Does anyone know any good flip cover with this function?
The only one I've found is from this shop:

Thanks
On the Mi 5 there's an option where you enable the smart cover in MIUI to have a "transparent cover" for incoming calls and such.
It's in Settings > Lock screen and passwords, under "Smartcover mode".
Not sure about the Redmi Note 3 (I use CM so can't check) but I believe if we have the sensor we should have the option as well.
There is "smartcover mode" option. I'm just looking for a better quality cover than the upper one

I have the Verizon version of the Edge with the flip cover and when I receive a text message (for example) the notification doesn't show up with the flip cover closed. Is it supposed to show the notification?

I'll let you know. I just got my flip cover but haven't put it on yet. I'll be back in about 30 min to let you know
Cool - to be more specific, text message notifications don't seem to show up. Meeting reminders, phone calls do show up. I've verified in the Text message settings that "Edge Screen" is checked in the notification options but when that flip cover is covering the display it doesn't seem to work.
Will be curious about your findings.

Text messages showed up for me. I texted myself and hurry up and closed the cover and the entire message scrolled downward on the edge panel
Did you disable Flipboard in settings? Had the same problem till I enabled it.

If you mean having flipboard being the page before the home page then yes I have it enabled. One thing I don't like about this wallet cover is that the cover won't actually sit flat on the face of the phone.

I had same problem. Just take the cover off, and then crimp the fold with your fingers in a pinch 3-4 times. That solved the problem. Now have flip for 3 weeks and it stays flat.

Interestingly I figured out what the problem was. I also have a Moto 360 and when the Android Wear is installed and set to receive notification (which don't work either -- posting another thread) the phone will not show text message notifications on the edge screen with the flip cover shut.
Really kind of dumb. I've proven this out numerous times by uninstalling Android wear, then notifications start working on the edge screen with the cover shut. Install Android Wear, enable it to see notifications -- then the edge screen stops working.
Oh well.
I use the orginal samsung flip wallet to protect my galaxy note edge, since I updated to lollipop the screen lock (swipe) does not fuction. If I replace the flip wallet with the original back cover the screen lock it works fine again. So I supose there is an incompatibility between the wallet and lollipop. what can I do Iwill appreciate your help
Thanks

Works for me. Do you mean the lock screen does not appear at all?
If so, did you check that Settings > Accessories > Flip Wallet > Automatic Unlock is unchecked.
If yes, try checking and unchecking it. Or give the lockscreeen a pin and then move back to swipe.
Is there a way to make active/ambient display on S6 just like in the Moto X series which display a single clock and notifications every time a notification comes or you wave your hands close to it or take it out of the pocket?
As S6 habe that screen from the Clear View case, probably it should be easy to show the same screen in the active/ambient display ocasions.
The S6 has the option of waving your hands when it is laying flat to view your notifications.

AcDisplay is an app that mimics ambient display. Try that out.
Yeah, I know that the S6 has the option to wave your hands to show the screen, but it shows the full screen colored and everything, which would be bad battery-wise. Probably would be nice to just light up some pixels like the ambient display on Moto X as the S6 also have an AMOLED display.
I also know about AC Display, but it seems that adding it just adds another lockscreen in front of the default one and if you use it as your default lockscreen, it can't work with the fingerprint reader to unlock, is that correct?
It just doesn't seem too difficult to pop the same screen as the Clear View Case on waving the hands in front of the phone or when getting notifications. If it isn't possible to do it with the built-in software, they are missing a great opportunity here.
i just recently got this phone and and i love the flip case but i would love to know how to change the wallpaper that appears with the flip case.
Flipcase wallpaper
With the flipcase closed, press on the screen twice to change pic. Unfortunately there are only the 5 pics that came with the phone to choose from.
Is there any way to add new pictures?

According to the sticker on the flip case, you either swipe up or down in the window to change the background image. For me, oddly enough, it only works if I swipe down. Swiping up does nothing.
Double tapping doesn't work if you enabled the double-tap to sleep functionality.

I've looked into it and found out a way to add new pictures. I've made a guide here that you can follow.
Hello.
I have a simple question, is there any way to control Spotify with the flip cover closed. I mean, to get access to the controls (next, previous song, start/stop) from the flip cover window.
If this is possible, maybe there's a eway to change the flip cover background by syncing with the album art.
Thank you.
where can I get a replacement flip cover for my Blu Pure XL that turns the phone on and off? Mine is starting to crack and BLU is no help at all
I've just got the official P9 flip case and I was wondering whether there would be some way of keeping the smart view window on. Particularly when charging. The notification LED is okay, but because it's behind the earpiece grill, it's a little dim..
You can set it in stentings> Developer Options to not turn off display when phone is charging.
Sorry for my English
