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 did. Even toggled it on and off. I did however find a setting in Textra that turns the screen on when I get a text. I turned that off andso far so good with text. But problem is still there with every other notification

I had this problem. Turn down the sensitivity of the hard press home button. It kept activating in my pocket as a result of the sensitivity being to high from factory.

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
Sent from my SM-G955U using Tapatalk
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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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...

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.
The ambient display feature does not appear to be working for me, or it at least not very well. I have it turned on in settings under Display, and whenever I get a notification the screen will turn on for like two seconds, and then it turns back off. When I pick up the phone, tap the screen, shake it etc, it does absolutely nothing, the screen remains off. There is no way for me to know I have a notification other than the really faint LED light at the top that blinks occasionally. Is there something I'm missing?
same with me
Not working for me either. They're sending me a new one.

+1 @Kodiak1013 for me. AD isn't working as intended. The only time it's worked properly for me is in the Google support chat session.

In the settings menu it says ambient display comes on when you receive a notification, in the Pixel help docs it says it comes on when you get a notification or pick up the phone. I wonder which is correct.
I don't believe it works this way anymore. Why the Pixel is missing the feature is beyond me.
My 5x on 7.1.1 Dev preview has lift to "check"(wake) notifications now under the Moves settings. With that disabled and ambient display enabled it works the same as the Pixel currently does. 7.0 and below we just enabled ambient display setting and it worked as we all are familiar with.
Huge step backwards!
Let´s hope they bring it back with an update soon. (before a custom rom will)
Wake on proximity sensor really rocks.
I just got done chatting with Google's tech support people, and they told me that my ambient sensor is broken and are offering me a replacement Pixel. I'm not sure if this is accurate though, because that would mean that everyone's ambient sensor is broken.
From what I understand this is working as intended however they will be adding double tap to wake in a future update so that'll make ambient display much more usable.

Can confirm I haven't seen a Pixel that has an ambient on screen, nor is there a setting for it anywhere.
I've made my new pixel bearable again by using gravity screen on/off in the play store. Still goes back to"normal" after 15 minutes of idle....but for the most part it's similar to any phone I've used in the past three years now.

So i'm not touching the phone and it is doing nothing. then a notification is received, next my screen wakes up and shows me the notification and falls a sleep again.
I do not want this to happen , when im at work people see my notifications when my phone is on my desk.
How do i turn this off ? Help is appreciated
many thanks

i have done what you suggested and this all works as it should but still my screen wakes up everytime i get a notification.
Indeed when i do what you suggested it shows icons only but still i see the lock screen with the full or short notification and then the screen falls a sleep.
Until i receive a notification agian the screen wakes up shows what i have put in the setup and falls a sleep again.
one example is when im in my car listening to Spotify, everytime i skip to the next song (with the button on my steering weel) the screen wakes to show me the next song.
On my edge 7 it wuld only show the next song on the always on display screen.
I find this very strange and i would like to know if this is happening with all S8+ phones.
Thanks for your reply.

How that happens... I think that there is no Samsung Galaxy phone that do that thing.... I have s8+ (exynos) and I'm using glimpse notification to make this work... Because that is what I want... Everytime I recieve a notification I want my phone screen to light up and see what the notification is about and where it comes from!
That's why I don't need AOD because it doesn't show notifications details...
And my phone without "glimpse notification" app never wakes up the screen when I recieve notifications...
How does that working for you?
Indeed my phone's does exactly what you describe but without glimpse. How is this possible?

Wake up screen home button
What i would like to see is an app that wakes up/ unlocks my Note 5 screen when is turned off. And that doesn't effect the battery that much, like 5-6 percent all day usage. Thnx
Thats not possible anymore unfortunately.
Works great but itd be nice to have a quick toggle to turn this function on or off easily without having to open the app as it interferes with fingerprint verification. I see the blacklist option but I haven't been able to get that option to work, and I tried multiple apps that required verification.
Thanks for pointing that out. Found the bug. will be fixed in next release. Uploading soon.
No blacklist needed for that
I'll definitely keep an eye for the update, I went ahead and got pro cause I really like this app VS other similar ones as there are more options.. And I think having blacklist is better than having to need to toggle on and off
How different is it from the app finger touch
It is way way slower than fingertouch service app.

I like this a lot more than the other one, no burst of vibration on even half a second touch.
One down side is vibration is not consistant, sometimes I get a single vibration and other times dont get vibration at all, which I much prefer.
Nice work nevertheless.
This works great thanks, can i ask you what icon pack you are using in the above picture, your setup looks great, many thanks

Depends, if you use long press actions it surely waits shortly. But if you activate speed mode its instantly.

You dont even need to blacklist in new version. You can authenticate in browser or similar and after this easyHome will kick in again automatically.

You can disable vibration in the easyHome. I dont get any on my S7 here then.

easyHome was created over 1,5 jears ago. It has gained lots of features and functionality over this time and works pretty flawless currently.
You can use long press actions, haptic feedback, blacklist apps and authenticate in browser or similar without problems.
So far the new update seems to be alot better, I haven't been able to go through all of the verification needed apps to make sure but my most important ones are working.
I personally like this app over fingertouch because of the hold to launch an action, and also having the feedback option to be able to discern when a proper action was attempted or not, is a big plus for me. Maybe not haptic feedback but having sound feedback is nice for doing the long command.
Fingertouch works great too. Having a nougat quick tile is nice for when things aren't working properly. But although any tap on the sensor will go to home, since it uses your setup fingerprint signature for a reference in some way, if the finger your using isn't one setup in your system it will vibrate like a failed fingerprint attempt. I only have (1) thumbprint setup for verification in my phone but I don't always use that setup thumb to tap to go home. So I was constantly getting an error vibration and it threw me off. Also with fingertouch, you have to toggle on and off when needing to use fingerprint verification since it doesn't have a feature that will allow you to do both actions at the same time.
Yes, but i have to buy it... Other app is free and does the same.

Basic funtions are also free here plus you get a blacklist option.
And 1,49€ for the full version is really not too much i hope.
Fingetouch is a great app too. You luckily have the choice on android
Yes, they are. It is a good app. I don't know why, but today it restarted my s7 edge for 2 times. Never had a restart in a year by phone itself. I uninstalled it and it is ok. :/

Using easyHome since i created it and never had a reboot so far...
Yeah, dont know what happened. Maybe some conflict in processes. Your app is great. Cheers.

I've been using this app very heavily the last two days as I'm off of work for a short period. Once I installed the update in the OP , I noticed that the only real issue I've had at all, is sometimes if I enter into either the Google app or Chrome but on e I enter those programs easyhome no longer works, it shows it running in the notifications but untill I turn my screen off and right back on, the easy home function doesn't work.. I don't have that problem at all if I try to enter in samsung Internet beta.. Only really an issue when using GA, otherwise I use samsung net.
I had another little hiccup trying to verify a purchase on Google play but I'd imagine that the nature of the beast when turning the senor into a capacitive button. I went to purchase an app and it immediately prompted me to use my worded password cause fingerprint wasn't available at that time. I closed easyhome and then I was able to use my print.
I recently started using easyhome and a double tap to wake app to save my ADD button presses and i really like both
When I open folder from home screen, start an app within folder, and touch home button, this takes the screen back to the folder, not back to the home screen.
UPDATE
Samething when I repeat the above procedure, from app drawer folder instead.
Just wondering, is this intended?
