Does anyone know if there's a way to disable the screen turning on when receiving an SMS? I would really like to disable this if at all possible.
not sure if it's what you're looking for but if you install sms popup (which is a fantastically simple app) it's one of the many options that you can configure ...
hope this helps ...
This didn't prevent the screen from turning on. The basic SMS app seems to still turn it on.

the way this normally works, is you install handcent which does have this option. then you go in and disable to stock messaging app completely, so that only handcent or your replacement choice controls text behavior.

What you'll notice is that even if you disable the notifications on a the standard messaging app, the app still runs in the background as it's also handling all the incoming DB writes from what I can tell. Samsung re-wrote the messaging app which always runs (and can't be removed) and in this app is the control to turn the screen on. That's why I can't figure out how to disable it without breaking SMS functionality altogether.

Or you could just go tweak the code to stop it waking it up?

Well that's the next step I'm seeing if there's a way to get around that.

Or I could give you an apk to try?
No idea if it will work. Delete the odex and apk for mms.apk, after backing up, and try this one

BACK UP MMS.APK and MMS.ODEX before you do anything =D I can't test due to O2 uk being idiots

Thank you sir, I'll give this a go as soon as I get back to my main computer (adb/drivers/etc).
Might be a late reply, but did it work ? Trying to get an Mms.apk for Galaxy S1, that doesn't turn the screen on.
Hi, i was using the official Ginger 2.3.4 from Motorola with motoblur and one of the things i liked about it is that the screen never rotate on desktop or the app drawer but the apps and games do.
So i was wondering if anyone knows a way to do this with any of the custom roms out there? currently im using Aura 1.2.2.2 with faux133 kernel and baseband .36, right now all i can do is use a rotation app that would disable the rotation with a click but thats not what i want, i want only the apps and games be able to rotate by them-self but the app drawer and the desktop not.
Also I'd like to know if there is a fix available out there for the rain drop or something what is called the bug, that if u keep your screen pressed for more than 10 -15 secs it will disable the touch until u release ur finger and press it again. I know i read somewhere something about it but now i cant find any info on how to fix this cause i like to play emulators a lot and its a pain for them as u can imagine.
You can use tasker for auto rotation on several apps

I already tried but no it doesn't do what i want it to do, use the auto rotation for everything but the desktop
No one?
Hello all,
Yes i did search for this problem and no i am not allowed to post in that section yet (enter flaming here) Lol
Ok so i put ShoStock3 on last night and all works great. Just today i noticed that i do not have auto rotate on home screens only. It rotates in menus and apps but not on the home screen like it does in the video. Did i break my flash? lol Any ideas? I have not seen anything in the forums about this. Not even rotate being disabled in rom for now till the other issues are resolved.
Thanks
JP
Check your launcher settings; sometimes they have rotation toggles as well.

You are missing a notification LED on LG G6?
You don't use the AlwaysOnDisplay (AOD)?
You are using Tasker?
I have a solution for you.
The AOD screens goes on if you have a new message and goes off after reading that massage.
Beside the newest version of Tasker you need additional the app Tasker Settings
I have attached two files "AOD_ON.tsk.xml" and "AOD_OFF.tsk.xml"
These are the Tasker task which turns the AlwaysOnDisplay on and off.
How to import these XML as Tasker task: read this XDA thread
Now you have to add 2 new profiles in Tasker
Profile 1 - Notification
Go to the Profile tab in Tasker, and press the "Plus" (+) button
Choose: EVENT - UI - NOTIFICATION ... you can choose now an app (owner application) let's say WhatsApp (you can choose more than one app)
Related task : AOD_ON
Important : leave all the fields TITEL, TEXT, SUBTEXT etc empty.
Profile 2 - Notification removed
Go to the Profile tab in Tasker, and press the "Plus" (+) button
Choose: EVENT- UI - NOTIFICATION REMOVED ... you can choose now an app (owner application) let's say WhatsApp (you can choose more than one app)
Related task : AOD_OFF
If you don't want to be notified in the middle of the night by AOD, you may have that Profile only active during daytime. Short tap the Prolie name, long tap the profile description. A new window pops up, choose ADD. A new window pops up, choose TIME. You can now define in which period of the day the profile is active.
LG G6 settings: Notifications/ LOCK Screen / do NOT choose Hide all notifications !
It works for me on LG G6 (H870)
Have fun
EDIT: for SMS & MMS add Contacts, Phone App and (if possible) SMS App to owner application in Tasker Profile
For missed calls you need to add 'Calling Accounts' apart from Phone app.
Here are the steps how to add this: (thanks to user Vitoski, who found out)
1. Click on the 'Owner Application'
2. click 'ALL' button at the right bottom corner
3. Select 'Calling Accounts'.
4. click back twice and tick to save changes.
EDIT : If you like to have a brighter AOD , please read this useful post added by user vitoski
Many thanks for that!
Thanks a lot to users Dracushor87 and Vitoski for testing and giving hints and ideas!
Edit : new versions of AOD_ON and AOD_OFF tasks
martmarq great post - thanks a lot!
I've been using AOD with Tasker since two days now and in most cases it works fine. It kicks in when the notification shows up and turns off when I remove the notification.
However sometimes the AOD turns on itself, even if there was no notification registered in the system. These are the two situations in which I have spotted this:
# when you go to Display Settings and click on three dots next to AOD - you don't need to change anything in there, just go there and back to homescreen.
# when you connect phone to the charger. Even when you disconnect it, the AOD stays on.
# under some other circumstances which I was not able to pinpoint right now
So, have you observed the same?

When you connect the phone to the charger, there is a notification.... therefor AOD should go on.
You can manage that by choosing apps (owner application) in Tasker. That solved the problem for me.
That might also solve the other circumstances.
I don't have that problem with the display settings... I have just tested that.

Have you used specific apps which notifications you monitor within the profiles or left it blank (none of the apps is selected)? This is the way I made it and I suspect it may causes all of those issues I described. Definitely will test it, but thought I'm gonna check it with you

Yes, I have activated only the needed apps like WhatsApp, Email and so on.
I have edited the first post, because for SMS you need a new profile (see above)
for me, sms notifications work without creating a separate profile. i only added the Contacts app to the list ( with Phone app )

mmmhhh... yes, now it works. Seems I had not added one of those two....
For me the sms app worked fine too. Will check now with limiting the number of notifications to specific apps and let you guys know if I still experience the same problems as reported above.

Are you using any 3rd party Phone/Contacts app or sock one? For some reason it doesn't work for me with stock application.
I have selected both (Contacts and Phone) applications and it doesn't activate AOD when I have a missed call
i have stock apps. for missed calls, i did the 3rd profile with phone missed call event. last night i had a missed call , but with a whatsapp message, and i thought that the profile is good. but today i checked it, and it doesn't work without a separate profile.

OK I found the missing part... You need to also add 'Calling Accounts' apart from Phone app.

3. Select 'Calling Accounts'.

Now you can exit Tasker and check if AOD kicks in when you have a missed call. Would be good to hear from others if this works fine, but it works for me fine.
@martmarq can you please add it to OP once other confirm if this works for them?

It works, I will add that.
Hello, thanks for you post.
Just a question : It's juste for AOD without cover or witch official cover it's working too ?
It's too bad the screen power off with official cover ....
Dumb question here.... Do we need root for this to work ?

Not quite working for me (US997)... I have every thing all set up, but my Tasker notification says "No profiles activated". Any ideas?

A tasker profile is only activated when it is triggered.
If you produce a profile like "active between 8 o'clock and midnight" does that work for you?

Yes, it does. The AOD_off profile works, but I can not get AOD_on to trigger with an app notification, I have verified that I have the app selected for a trigger.
The phone is working perfectly fine. But one glitch is that when i try and enable ONE HANDED MODE it doesnt work, when i do the swipe for that i get the haptic feedback but the screen doesnt come down as it should be.
i did full hardware test all sensors are working fine...
I have developer mode on.
any other settings might be conflicting ?
Thank for your help.

When I swipe right to left and hold, it is working.
Hope you are doing the same.
Also deactivate gestures navigation and check if it works.

wierd update... it started working! i guess its a fluke... this is the choronology of actions i did unintentionally
1. i enabled the one handed mode.
2. i opened kaspersky antivirus app
3. i guess i swiped from bottom of the screen upwards(not intentionally) and voila it asked if i want to allow the app to go full screen on which i clicked ok. than bang! it started working...

it seems the problem is in the app fullscreen mode setting which might be conflicting with one handed mode setting, i think we should tweak it once or twice to resolve the conflict there.

Try to disable all apps using accessibility permission. I don't know which one so you try them all. This not only make one handed mode unusable, it also makes url bar on chrome stop auto hiding
