Hi,
recently I bought the original cover SCSF10 for my XZ.
It's nice. but the weird thing, whenever I hangup a call the phone gives me an automatic message that a flip cover is detected.
is there away to stop this message?
Thanks,

try to remove it and then reinsert it again.
go to Settings, Display, Cover selection and select " Flip cover"
i have a OEM Sony cover but it's the Style Cover Touch (SCTF10) so i select the first one...
hopefully this will solve your problem!
Good luck
I found some remedy. I go to settings>display>cover selection. and I choose others and press ok. then I enter it again and choose flip cover aqnd press ok.
It works fine after that till the next restart. the thing is that with every restart I need to do the same procedure...
This mobile is weeeeird

Hi,
I've got a problem with my Trinity, where if it rings and I pull it out of my pocket, sometimes one of the buttons gets pushed as it rubs past the material, so either the call can be hung up on or it gets answered before I can see who's calling.
I also get a similar problem if a calendar alarm goes off, or if there is a text message. Sometimes these can be dismissed before I get a chance to see what is causing the notification.
I guess this is a problem on many PPC phones which dont have a cover. Does anyone else experience this?
Does anyone know of any way to solve this? Perhaps having a secondary lock button which needs to be pressed before the hard buttons become active or something like that...?
I guess it would need some software installed, as I havent found any way to do this through the normal settings.
Thanks for any suggestions!
Cheers,
Ben
My Jasjam comes with a screen lock. Once this is activated you first need to press the unlock button which gets assigned to the left soft key followed by another button on the screen. Quite effective I would say.

Hi,
Is this the same as the "Device Lock"?
My phone has this too, but it doesn't work for when there is an incoming call...ie you dont have to unlock the phone first to press the green "handset" button.

Hi Ben,
I have been having the same issue as you with my Jasjam. I tried using a hard case which was just too bulky and annoying, so I've since used something like those iPod socks and just keep it in my pocket. I just take extra care when pulling it out so it doesn't knock the green answer key. I think this is just something we're just going to have to get used to unfortunately.
Hello,
I was using the Photon Q, closed the slider, wanted to reopen it - but the screen did not turn on anymore. It didn't fall down, no water accidently came into contact with the phone but the screen was off. However, the phone was still working (I was able to call it) and when guessing where the unlock button on the screen is, I got the vibrating feedback. So obviously, there's something wrong with the screen.
However, it's not the cable connecting the screen with the device (which would have been the worst case scenarion according to CornholioGSM).
Any other suggestions or would you just try to replace the screen?
Thanks!
Ah: It's not a backlight problem, this has been tested, too.
Cheers!

...when you slide out keyboard and then press any button screen wakes up?
If yes then test magnetic sensor - it is under space bar

Well... If I slide out the keyboard, the screen is instantly awake. I can feel it, as I can guess where the unlock button is and unlock the screen. Do you want me now to wait in order to let the screen go off again and then wake it up with a hardware button from the keyboard? And after that: how do you want me to test the magnetic sensor?
Thanks!

Put a magnet near the sensor.
Hi. Just opened my Christmas present - new S6. However, when i turned it on the phone boots to the opening screen where you select the country but the touch screen doesn't work. The back button, recent app button and home button all work.
I've tried rebooting but same problem.
I've searched the net for a solution but nothing. Anyone have a suggestion or do i have to take the phone to Samsung.?
Thanks
Alan
Yeah I think you got a defective device. Send it back to samsung. Bad luck
Cheers. What a pain in the arse...
I have this problem that, whenever I press the power button to turn on the screen, I have to swipe twice in order to unlock the phone. I turned on "Show Touches" in the dev menu and it shows that my XA thinks that there is a touch already on the lockscreen so I have to touch it once to get it to realize that it isn't bring touched so I can then unlock the screen with a second touch.
I've also encountered an issue when swiping down from the top to get the notification menu to pull down but it freaks out and jumps around until the third swipe to get it to come down.
Anybody else have this problem or even just a workaround?
I'm on 33.2.A.3.81. and I'm unable to update.
Battery is also crap without Stamina Mode on too.

Do you use glass protector?
You can you test the touchscreen w/o the glass protector.
settings > about phone > diagnostics > test > test the touch screen
With the battery Unfortunately it is true that the battery is not a super long lasting device, but with moderate use of the device(not stressing it) the battery last me through out the day.

I don't use any protectors at all.
And, for some reason, there isn't a "diagnostics" under "about phone" in the settings.
The battery drain is weird because it can drain really quickly (with verrrrrry little use, literally just turning it on every hour to check the time).
If you want to test your touchscreen, you can open diagnostics by press *#*#7378423#*#* in phone app.
Hope this help! but I never faced this problem before, better check with Sony service.

For some reason, it checks out fine. It just acts weird like in the op only at the lock screen.

Does root still work with the latest update?
And trying to update via Flashtool doesn't work, don't know why.

You can use Flashtool to update your device after root and use the included Xperifirm to download the firmware.

No solution just yet for me even updated to Nougat 7.0 update through flashtool. I think I'll just break down and send it in to Sony soon but I'm exploring other options before I do that.

This is called Ghost Touch. I read you don't use any kind of protectors so it is a hardware problem and you can't fix it with software repair. If you have warranty use it, if not you will need to open it and remove connectors and put them back. Most of time that will solve problem, but my advice is to send it to service (there is electricity problems from you and all other things that you can screw up if you are not careful). You can try to google for more informations, but mostly you will end up with what I wrote you.
Edit: Because you have that problem, phone thinks you are using your screen whole time and it never goes to sleep could be a problem for a battery drain.
I'm noticing my phone is vibrating once when I lock the phone - any idea what's causing this? The Smart Alert feature is turned off.
Solved Vibrate with smart case
Go to accessories
Then LCD view cover, tick the first option on! Automatic lock. When it's off it vibrates. It was annoying me as well

I don't have a Smart Cover - that option isn't there for me.
