Auto sleep/wake cover - Xiaomi Mi A2 / 6X Accessories

When I ordered my Mi A2 I also ordered a Dux Ducis case. Although it's a nice case, I noticed my phone still received touches when the case was closed. I found out this was because the case isn't putting the phone in sleep mode, which I was used to on my OPO.
I tried getting this behaviour using an app (Tasker and different apps) that uses the proximity and/or light sensors to put the phone to sleep. Unfortunately, when I tried waking the phone afterwards, the fingerprint scanner was disabled and I had to use the unlock code.
So now I'm looking for a different case with auto sleep/wake functionality, but all cases I find all need an app for it. And I'm afraid using the app gets my fingersprint scanner disabled, like the other apps did.
Can anyone recommend a case for my Mi A2 that has auto sleep/wake out of the box?

Don't buy this one. This is designed to work with the smart cover functionality in MIUI. So it'll work witha MIUI ROM on your A2 but if you want it on Andro One you'll need some app

V Smart Armour Case for Desire HD

Just bought one of these for my Desire HD and it turned up this morning...
pretty impressed with it
Flip case with good padding on the edges which rap around the phone and gives a secure fit.
Edges are well padded as in the front screen section this has extra padding to help save the screen
Just over £20 with delivery from Mobile Fun...

A link to my google page rather than spamming here...

Thanks for posting the photos! I've been looking at this case. How has it held up so far? How securely does the Desire HD fit into the case - does it lock or snap in well?
i saw my friends using this case, seems preety awesome...maybe time to change case for my self
wow this looks really good and promising. But my concern is with the flipping part, like how's holding the phone in landscape? like are there any problems? does the flip get in the way or does it fold all the way to the back?
time to change my case?!
But i dont understand one thing, when you make a call, is the flip just hanging around, or how is it in use? Does it flip up or down?
Looks very backward on the pics from mobilefun.co.uk...

Embed an NFC tag in Android Wear

Google didn't support NFC in the first round of Android Wear devices? No problem!

lol nice work. So this adds nfc features to your phone??
Depending on the chip, you can simply stick it on back of the watch and it will work. I did that with my pebble. However, some don't work. I received some nfc stickers and they weren't strong enough.
I read on Google Plus post that someone was able to add NFC on Android Wear, the problem is that there are some interference...
Well, it makes it quick to unlock. (see https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zx5v63D-X80 for a video)
The way it is now, it's probably not that secure, other phone unlocking methods (e.g. pattern, pin) are worse when people around you can see what you're typing so easily. In any case I think this type of unlocking method can be made more secure if we really want to.
Ideally, future watches should support NFC communication so we can do a proper cryptographically secure handshake.

It's just a nfc tag he put inside the watch. Nothing else.

[Q] S-View Cover Support for Core 2

In the accessories under the settings in Samsung Galaxy Core 2 it say's :
S-View Cover ( Automatic unlock) : Flip the cover to unlock the screen when secure lock is disabled. (Check or Uncheck)
Does it mean that S - View is supported in this device even if it doesn't have a proximity sensor to get S-View (Google Play)
or it is just a mistake?Because I am planning to buy an s view this month (online).

I don't understand because i think Samsung would not just publish a noticeable mistake. Can someone verify this.

It's a mistake made by samsung but there is workaround to set front camera as motion detection sensor for off/ on screen.

Does the official Samsung flip cover (pictured above) have issues with NFC?
I've been trying to get my RBC Wallet app to work, but in retail terminals where I generally tap my credit card to pay, they don't seem to be picking up the NFC signal from my phone.
I noticed that compared to the stock battery cover, there are three extra nodes on the battery cover (attached photo). Would this make a difference? What are they used for?
Thanks.
Isn't the NFC stuck on the battery? I tried NFC-ing some file without a cover and it still works. CMIIW though.
I have the offical sview case. Nfc (tap to pay, pairing, etc) only works with the case open and screen on. I personally wish it would atleast work with the case closed and screen on, but for whatever security reason it doesn't.
any reason for not getting the S-View case? the NFC capability is built into the battery but depending on how think the case is your using it might not work.
personally I would take a wireless charging S-VIEW case that comes with NFC compatibility.

Xperia z transparent back

I saw user of note 5 / s7 can easily scrape off their color on the backglass , turning it into transparent and it look absolutely gorgeous(to me) . so i wantehd to recreate it with my Z . but unfortunately , couldnt get it to seperate as it is(maybe) fused to the glass. So i went cheap and use A tempered glass instead....

You could buy normal black back for XZ from aliexpress/e-bay because the glass is not coloured. It has colored sticker on it's back. Use razor blade to separate it. Wipe it off and you have genuine transparent back for Xperia Z just add new adhesive.
You gained questionable better design by expense of NFC :/
