Hi
I've got 1 big question. Few days ago I bought Oneplus 3 and it's great phone I very liked it especially gesture on off screen, basically I even noticed that I'm using this feature so often that the function auto on screen began to irritate me.
So here comes my question is it possible to turn on screen ONLY with power button? I mean is it possible to disable turning on screen when I lift it or swiping finger down and up?
I apologize in advance for my English and also I thanks in advance for help

I am in love with the functionality of Slide2Unlock but it seems to eat memory like crazy and cause weird issues on every ROM I have used (WizardG3).
Does anyone have a locking application that requires pressing the power button to activate the screen and then hold the d-pad for a second to unlock?
I can't always be tapping the screen with my finger or taking the time to get the stylus out.
Hi Xoom, sorry I want to ask you a question instead answering your question.
You asked, "Does anyone have a locking application that requires pressing the power button to activate the screen and then hold the d-pad for a second to unlock?"
Does it mean using Slide2Unlock, I could wake the phone from standby only by tapping the screen, without pressing any button?
Thanks.
Hi
Which version of S2U you are referring to? Version 1 or 2? V.2 now only occupy 1MB of RAM.

Currently with slide2unlock (v2) Using the D-Pad you can unlock the phone or you can use the slider on the touch screen, both to bring the phone into an unlocked state (displaying the today screen)
I notice it runs with 1mb of memory. Maybe it's just a scapegoat along with Voicecommand running at 1mb but something is killing the performance on my phone and having it lock up all the time.
I think I just need a new/custom version of wm6.

But can it wake the phone from standby (screen completely off) only using the touchscreen?

No, Sorry for the confusion, I have to push the power button then use the d-pad or touch screen to unlock. If it were possible, I don't think I would like that solution, I figure the phone would be getting "touched" in my pocket all the time.

I was thinking maybe only parts of the screen that is "touchable", so it's not always getting "touched" and would save some batt. And even if it's being "touched", it's still locked and it won't do any unwanted action... at least.
I guess, I'm getting paranoid with the button. But someone's confirming it:
"Naturally I set it to the power button, but after a while, that button got worn down and stopped "working" so I naturally set it to recognize any other button.
This experience has taught me the hard way, that its a good choice to have (or maybe even a necessity in some cases) that other buttons to wake the unit up in case of situations like this."

I know we could remap the button, however, it is still pushing the button. Eventually, it could wear the button off.
Su2u has a sweet config app translated to most languages, and has a lots of config options, look into that..
Hi all,
Sorry for the cross-post, but I just realized that this is probably the best forum for my question..
I normally don't carry a watch, so I look at my TC to get the time. I would like this funtionality mapped to one of the hardware buttons:
Wakeup the display and show a big clock for a second or two, then turn off the display again. (Preferably, the device should still be locked throughout this.)
Is there any similar software?
Thank's in advance!

hi
i have an x7500 and i use the app called slide 2 unlock. that's the iphone program developed for ppcs. what happens is when i press the power button, the screen comes alive and the 2 most prominent features on the screen are the time (large display) and the slide to unlock the device. i then press the power button again or i leave it to power down on it's own. the same thing happens when a call comes through. i have a bt headset and the screen comes alive. but no app can be launched because the slide 2 unlock button will in fact lock the screen. the only way to unlock it is by unlocking it using the slider.
other's in the forum could have other apps as well. but so far that works for me.
just my 2 cents
Thank you very much, Robson!
Based on your description, I'll keep looking for something that will not interfere when a call comes. Thank's anyway, though!
Anyone else with any ideas?

You can disable the phone options in S2U2 if you want
Thank's, DocteurN! That's pretty close, except if set to 5secs it will turn off the phone after five all the time, not just when Ive pressed the power-button to get the time. Nearly there..
SPB Mobile Shell does this with its now screen. OR SPB Time can do it with its screensaver !
Both must haves anyway imho !
Dave
Thank you dmj1973! I'm trying with the SPB apps now.
The SPB apps are great but there is no keylock, as far as I can see..?
Basically, from sleep mode, I just want to push a button to see the today screen or at least the time for a second or two, without unlocking the device.
Which is exactly what I do with S2U2 - I press the power button, glance at the time, then hit it again... Perfect!
Is there any way to be able to use the functions of moving the phone. I don´t know if it´s clear the way I wrote it, I´ll try to explain.
For example, I saw in Moto X, with the screen turned off if you shake your mobile twice to your right, the camera app turns on.
I come from Samsung Galaxy Advance and I had some of these options also.
I´d like to be able to turn my screen on without pressing the button.
Thanks indeed
I really love the Nexus 5, But I have noticed that when trying to use the bottom row of buttons on the keyboard It aperantly detects one of the 3 on screen buttons and does what ever that button does! Which is a P.I.T.A. when your trying to type!
After the first few times of it doing it I thought something was wrong with my keyboard but after being a little more carefull and watching where I was touching the screen it definately has a invisible detection line for the buttons thats a tad too tall!? [I hope this is proper name for the description IDK the tech lingo for this]
Device info:
Stock Nexus 5
swype [paid] keyboard
portrait mode
Thanks in advance.
Questions belong in the Q&A forum. That's what it's there for.
Never heard of that happening.

Hey,
Could You please modify the upcoming egde kernel so that the screen won't turn on when the home Button is pressed inside our pockets. It would really improve our battery and omit unwanted pocket photos. LG already has it in all their G series, it's a simple proximity Sensor addon. I am asking cause I would like to enjoy edge Features and therefore planning to stay Stock.
Kind Regards,

While I agree with having a option to wake with the home button or not. Use a pattern or password lock screen. You can omit having a camera icon from any lock screen.
That way if your screen does turn on, the likely hood of taking pictures or pocket calls is very minimal.
I use gravity screen app. Keeps phone off in pocket and auto turns it on when pulling it out. Customisable. Great.
You can modify it to disable home button wake. @dwitherell

I'll Sure try it cause what happened to me today was really frustrating, I had my phone in my pockets and after sometime I felt my legs were burning hot so I quickly brought it out thinking the LiPo was about to explode or something but it turned out to be the phone activated the quick camera shortcut on the fingerprint lock screen and started capturing 4k video which for sure heated the processor up and other compnents as well. that was really annoying.
I tried this Gravity app but still I got unwanted phone wakes, I also looked into Rooting and disabling it, but still that's not what I want. I would like to use the home button normally but deactivate it only when in my pocket with the Proximity sensor.
