Hi all
I have a Note 10+ (from launch, in the UK) and if I'm on a call and take the phone away from my ear to end the call or press a number the screen doesn't wake up at all, I have to press the power button to wake the screen.
Is there anything I can do to fix this as it's incredibly annoying
Thanks!
Easy, calibrate your sensor, check this:

Is it possible to disable the "hold" feature on the call status screen? I'm left handed and every time I pick up a call my face touches the screen and puts the call on hold.
Or can i change the HOLD button's position on the keypad?
Call Status Features (When i make a call):
Speaker On Mute Hold
Note Contatcs End
Thanks!
Haha, funny, but I want to find the answer to this too. I sometimes End the call or press Speaker On when it touches my face.
try to find caller from forum Development and Hacking with somethig like a slide locking features off caller... i think it's from opal but i dont relly sure
Easiest, since it's a built-in feature, is to press the power button before raising the phone to (and touching) your face. This will turn off the screen, making it impossible to touch any of the on-screen buttons AND will NOT disconnect your phone call. Using the red end-call button to hang up will cause the screen to automatically come back on so you can continue using your device. If you need to use something on the device (contacts, calendar, etc) while still on the call, press the power button again and the screen will light back up - all without messing up your call.

The dude has the answer. Nice!
Hi guys, I have searched for awhile but with no luck. I am looking for an app that will turn my home or search button into an unlock key.
When the phone is locked I just long press the home or search key and my phone unlocks. I don't really like pressing the power button.
Thanks!
those buttons are non functional until you press the power button. they're not physical buttons so they can't be used for what you want
Tap tap app works with the proximity sensor to wake up and turn off the screen of the phone ( kinda like using the force ). When you wake the screen just unlock using the normal screen ring to middle swipe.

Fix broken power button app?

Currently testing out this app....

Just played around with it and this app actually UNLOCKS the phone. No more swiping needed to unlock the ring, even though the lockscreen is cool an all. This can be disabled if you do enjoy the lockscreen app .
This app does skip that but right now unsure on how it affects battery.
Hey, quick question in regards to the Tap Tap app. I've been using it and so far fine, but wondering if this wears out the proximity sensor in any way? Red light kind of always on? Or am I being a bit paranoid?
hi
i had a question re locking and unlocking the screen. At the moment i press power button to lock the screen. then to unlock i press power button to wake up the screen and then move the onscreen ring to unlock the phone.
My previous phone was xperia arc s and had three hard buttons on the bottom which i would press to wake up the screen. I quite miss that, especially for unlocking the phone.
any alternatives other than to always keep the screen awake!
ta
"Screen off and lock" for turning it off. Works very good.
For turning it on I've seen a few apps that use the proximity sensor (i.e. put the phone with the screen against the table and it switches off, pick it up and it switches on). Not a great battery drain, but I don't know if leaving the proximity sensor always on could damage it...
Some ROMs have a setting for waking the screen with the volume rocker, and there are also a couple of kernels that have "sweep to wake". Thats where you sweep your finger across the soft keys at the bottom of the phone, from one side to the other. Other than those two thing thats about it for alternative ways to wake the screen.
Hello,
my X5 II needs 2 -3 seconds after pressing the power button to activate the screen. This does not happen every time, sometimes it reacts extremely fast (like you would expect). Double tap to wake doesn´t work either when there is this delay.
Restart of the device does not fix the issue. Fingerprint reader is disabled.
Does anyone have a clue how to fix that?
Do you use any launcher?
Hello.
After using the phone for some hours, the "tap to wake" cover screen doesn't wake the screen.
Neither do the double press on the side button for taking a picture..
Notifications and calls show up like normal.
Is this just me or?
Did you remap tye side key? Are you using Bixby? Is aod enabled? Did you try a restart?
Did not remap key, double press is photo, hold down is turn off. Bixby sucks, so no. Aod is enabled but not on the front screen. Restart solves the problem, but it has happened 2 days in a row now.
