I'm using ComRom 1.2 - every time you adjust the volume it turns the screen on. It's kinda annoying if you're just listening to music. Any way to fix it?
Looks like both Community Rom and Evil Fascination suffer from this due to something in ED01. Hoping for a fix myself as I find my battery life is suffering as a result of the screen waking up on and off while its in my pocket.
lol, suffer? It was edited as a feature to the comm rom and since nitro kangs the comm rom as a base for his rom that's why both roms "suffer" from that feature.
good day.
They should set it as a option in tsm parts

I realize it is a feature and most people would like it. I was trying to find a way to disable it since I accidentally turn it on more now than before (in my pocket, etc). I noticed thatdudebutch had a disable fix on the Thunderbolt.http://www.multiupload.com/TC787BVBR5
I wonder if it might work or if it might be changed to work on evil or community rom?
I don't understand what the benefits of this feature are other than wasting battery life (not a benefit)
I love that they added this... i stopped using widget locker and i had really missed this feature.

Why on earth is this considered a good feature? How many buttons do you need to wake this thing up when in your pocket?
I have been looking for over an hour some way to disable the volume wake. Its pointless, and I certainly do not need my phone waking up in my pocket.
I find pressing the power button pretty easy. Dont need it on the volume key as well........ Really hard on the battery
This is something you should go out of your way to enable, not disable
I saw a review of the lovely Nokia N9, and I noticed that whenever it is put in sleep mode, it does not shut off the screen entirely - instead, it shows a clock that moves around the screen to prevent burn-in. I rather like this idea, and it apparently draws very little juice from the AMOLED screen (which is what my Captivate has).
I spent some time looking for an Android app that accomplishes something like this, but I didn't find anything like it. If there is such an app, could someone point me towards it? If not, is this even possible?
Alright, since this thread doesn't seem to be generating much interest, allow me to bump it with some ideas that might help spark your imagination.
- Replaces sleep mode completely, and might even replace lockscreens
- Displays notification alerts
- Can be toggled on/off by, say, holding down the volume rocker for a few seconds
- Uses the proximity sensor to disable itself when facing down or when placed in one's pocket
- Can be configured to only display under certain conditions (e.g. at night time when plugged in, so as to function as a bedside clock)
- Can cook bacon and eggs
Something like this probably doesn't exist, but would anyone else be interested in something like this if it doesn't use too much battery? If so, I might put up a bounty for whomever brings this to fruition. Would a developer be able to tell me if this is possible? I realize it would probably require root access, but that's fine with me.
I would like to wake from screen timeout without using any type of mechanical button (Power or Volume Buttons). I was ideally hoping the proximity sensor with the proper app would work but all the apps I have tried (MANY) have not worked properly on the Atrix 4G (cover proximity sensor screen OFF else ON, maybe with delay option before turning OFF) I would be happy If I could touch anywhere on the screen to wake the screen. My Atrix 4G is running factory 2.3.4 and is rooted and my wife's Atrix 4G phone is running 2.3.6 and has not yet been rooted. Seems like a rock solid working app to perform this functionality should be available for the Atrix 4G/MB860 smartphones?
Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated!!!!!
Don't want to wear out the fingerprint/power button!!!
Regards, Ron
PS-- I would gladly pay a nominal price for a working app (better than wearing out the mechnical switches)
that is not posible

It is possible, but it means it would have to keep the phone in a state of semi-awakedness at all times, never letting it go into deep sleep, thus draining the battery pretty quickly. Also monitoring the sensor constantly, thus draining even more battery. It also means the sensor would emit the faint red light all the time, which many find annoying.
Battery drain will be your best friend.

Pre-warning; I havent tried it. I just saw it a week ago so I'm sharing
Proximity Screen Off:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=876945
Thanks for the replies!!
I am aware the phone could NOT be in "deep sleep power save mode" and work without using either the power or possibly the volume button. A couple of Google Play "Pay Only" apps indicate they can be configured to wake the display using the side volume button (this would at least preclude the use of the power button to wake the display). I assume the volume button would still adjust the audio level? If anyone can comment on how well these apps work on the Atrix 4g, that would save me from purchasing an app that doesn't work as desired. From my understanding, the display uses the lions share of the battery bugdet. There are also apps that claim the display can be turned on by shaking/flipping or using the proximity/light sensors (anyone get any of these apps to work on the Atrix 4G?). The phones battery life should be extended by simply turning off the display. Waking the phone by something other that the power button would just be ONE of my usage models. If I want to get the maximum battery life, I would wake the phone using the power switch and not use any after market apps.
Thanks Again Very Much for your forum posts and any further help would be greatly appreciated.

widgetlocker lets you wake the phone by volume buttons, by disabling the stock lockscreen and replacing its own locker. it doesnt effect the sleep mode but disabling lockscreen may cause problems like unwanted call accepting. widgetlocker can put its locker over the callscreen but it still wont display the calling number. you may first try the app and then decide to buy it

Possibility to wakeup with a shake is solely depends on the kernel implementation.

I am using d855 AOSP EXTENDED ROM. This is the common issue I have in every CM based and AOSP rom, but didnt happen in stock based or stock kdz.
I dont like using hardware buttons, so I always enable "double tap to wake device", when the phone is charging it is 100% can be waked by double taping anywhere, I mean when the phone is idle, sleep and locked. But when it is not charged, it takes at least 4 tapsto wake but mostly it need many taps or even not responsive so forces me to use power button to wake it.
I wonder which setting or tweaks that can make the waking become more responsive? I use Greenify to hibernate and doze mode also. I wonder if this is related.
__________
Another issue is that, the notification bar becomes harder to pull down in those roms, in full_screen games or apps, usually in stock based roms I can easily pull down the bar first, then the drawer by swiping down from above, but aosp roms ot takes me lot more trys, so I wonder if there are some settings in build.prop or o5er files of the sensitivity.
Thanks in advance.
try disabling greenify.
So here's a ROM that i would recommend even tho it's in beta Corvus OS it's android 12 and everything works even the Camera but sadly not the greatness of Sony's Camera app...i personally haven't tried it with the Custom Kernel Kirisakura just yet but i will and report back on here if they place nice together...Magisk also works great with this ROM you just have to be careful what you flash...
Hopefully our device will be fully supported soon.
Just putting down some thoughts here.
Double tap to wake is borked, the setting already hints that it is unlikely to work and I can confirm this.
Forcing native res works rather poorly. On reboot I need to reset the dpi to make the GUI play nice, but some things remain iffy. Such as:
Gesture navigation still thinks preview windows should be the lower res, not native (looks poor, see attached images)
Some random visual glitches that cause a silent crash + restore, it's not critical but you can see it happening
No built-in battery health (as in limiting it), have to use something external (AccA)
Camera quality is way worse compared to stock. I don't mind as much as I don't care a lot, but quality regression is very significant (if I have to quantify it, I would accept 20-30%, but this feels more like 60%)
The GCAM's I've found that don't immediately crash (not many) all have serious bugs
No camera app found that plays nice with front camera, hope you weren't planning on taking pictures with the front camera
Edit: For 6 you can actually use the native app. Performance is super bad though.
To not sound too much like a downer I'll also put in some "niceties" compared to stock.
Holding volume button to seek is now native
OTA work again
Good visual eyecandy for charging, locking and more
No bloatware galore
Much much finer control over lots of little things, especially status bar is very nice
Other things:
The default launcher is a bit lacking, so I installed Nova 7, but this still has some shenanigans with force reloading and short unresponsiveness with gesture navigation. Very annoying, but I'm quite sure this is not the fault of the ROM. Just hoped this was improved (suggestions welcome)
If someone found a good GCAM please share, the ones I've found are either broken or seriously lacking.
It seems that sometimes the phone does not respond to my finger until I press the button. This could be intentional to prevent accidental unlocks / phone being locked for X seconds because lots of "bad" fingerprints detected.

Yeah this is the only ROM that i found that legit decided to be custom and not just copy/pasta of Pixel Experience without the GCAM and a different name.....for what I use my phone for it's 100% functional...but it's far from being perfect for everyone rn...

Yeah, this is why I've been very hesitant to install to install GSI ROMs, all the issues I've mentioned are because the X1 III is not the same as most other devices.
Wake to tap? Device specific thing.
Native res issues? X1III specific.
No built in battery health? Not device specific, devs pls
Camera issues? Device specific.
I think I'll drop the higher res as that will remove the most jarring of issues. The camera is whatever as it will not improve by switching to PE and double tap to wake is meh. Annoying at worst.

Alright some more shenanigans and needing to do a clean install further I do know some more things now.
1. is still broken, I'll try flashing a different kernel perhaps.
2. It's actually not so bad. It will remember and auto apply on reboot after a couple seconds. Gesture and notification bar may be slightly borked, but that's fixed fast by reloading system UI and switching between gesture and button navigation. The thing about recents has been resolved by switching to a different launcher with it's own quickswitch (lawnchair).
3. Acca works fine.
4/5/6 Nothing.
Another update.
2 is fine. Just don't use the built in launcher while forcing 4k. Just use lawnchair or something (+ quickswitch).
On another note, automatic brightness does NOT appear to work. This is quite the massive issue. I'm honestly a bit baffled how I haven't noticed until today.
AOD is also quite broken, while the phone is on the wireless charging and being ratiod to 90% it will continously blink. That's super annoying as I normally use AOD to check if I got a message, if it blinks it takes my attention, effectively defeating the entire purpose of AOD. *Groan*
These issues are really starting to stack up by now, I'm seriously considering reverting to stock. I'm really worried something else won't be working once I need it in the future.

No autobrighness may be caused by not having an overlay. I've also been annoyed by that on Pixel Experience. Can you create a fresh overlay for this phone and do a pull request with phhuson's repo? (I assume that's what must done)

Issue is that the "official" info provided by Sony seems to explicitly disable double tap to wake.
This makes absolutely no sense as double tap to wake works fine in the vanilla ROM.
Maybe someone can confirm this? It's been some time.

It's available in stock but it has never worked correctly. The proximity sensor doesn't disable it! There's a "Prevent accidental operations with screen off" setting as the world's dumbest work-around. That puts a keyboard and alert on the screen while you're walking. It stops emergency butt-dialing but the battery still runs down.

A what now? I do recall the proximity sensor not working really well with dt2w but at least it worked and I didn't notice some significant battery drain.
I did see some things about dt2w being disabled because the touch interface is powered when the screen is powered and this can't be decoupled. I'm not sure if this applies to this phone though.
Regardless, it shouldn't really matter as the X1 III is an OLED screen anyways. So as long as it's full black it should be fine(?)
I'm not asking for the perfect solution and if battery drain slightly increases that's a worthwhile investment to me. At least provide the option. Don't decide what I want because it has potential side-effects (just warn or something lol).
Actually I'm going out on a limb and stating that dt2w should be enabled by default if the device's screen is an OLED screen. Overlay and device specific things be damned.
