s-view not sensitive after standby - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
I bought the 'created N7',
a 7 inch phablet that is like the ulefone u7/tronsmart ps7/luftco a onex/orientphone mega pro 7 etc..., and is sold by the factory with 4.4.2 installed
I found a bug in this product
The bug is about the bad working of the s-view window.
I link here a video where is possible to see how it should work:
http://youtu.be/lk1P9jziw64
The problem is that with the created N7 it is not possible to answer
to the calls without opening the flip cover:
when the N7 receive a call, the s-view window is not sensitive, so it
is not possible to answer
The sview with cover closed is sensitive only for a few seconds after the cover has ben closed, specifically only before the sview goes in standby (black screen)...after the standby, wakening the phone by a call or simply pressing the power button (without opening the cover) the sview seems not sensitive
These are two videos that shows the problem:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EG6D...e_gdata_player
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-By6...e_gdata_player
This should be fixed, because is an important feature that is missing:
the phones like N7 of other brands (like ulefone u7/u69, luftco a-one
x, tronsmart ps7, orientphone mega pro 7) instead have a fully
functional s-view window
I already informed some created online sellers (kent wang, peter
yang... ) about this bug,
they told me that they will contact the engineer... but i have
not answer yet...i think they are not able to solve this problemi...
A seller told me that they send the leather case for free,
Its a gift , so i cannot ask them to fix this problem ��
Can someone help me to fix this problem?
I tried installing firmware of other device (luftco a onex 4.4.2)
But nothing has changed ...(and by the way i found that the luftco firmware
does not fit with my n7...the camera does not work with it)
Any hint?
Any suggestion?
I did some tests i found that actually the sview is sensitive also after the standby, but not enought to feel the touches through the screen...
in the settings there is an option 'increase touch sensitivity to allow the control through sview screen',
seems that this high sensitivity status is not reactivated if the cover is not opened after the phone goes to standby...
How can i fix this problem? perhaps some fix on touch drivers is needed?
Please help me!
Thank you!

TyTN bundle case...

Hi all and sorry if this argument eventually has been already discuss!
I have already tried some cases for my TyTN, but the bundle case is perfect for my needs! But on many forums I readed many opinions... some users regret that It is the really problem for the screen alignment issue...
I dont know what to do... can I use it without worry... or it's better that I dont use it???
is there anyone that use it with satisfaction?
Thanks!
Stefano
I have had occasion to have the magnet in the case rotate my screen, but that did not misalign the screen in any way. If you are buying a new case don't let this be your only reason. As far as I can tell this does no harm to the phone or screen.
Thank you very much for your reply! I've heard about occasionally screen rotation, but this fact isnt a problem for me.
Until now, I never had the screen alignment issue (and I hope neither in the next future!!!)... On many forums I have readed a lot of theory on this problem, and I would like to be safe that the bundle case doesnt create further issue.
Thank you for your experience!
Stefano
Hi, I only used the bundle case for about 10 minutes total, and have had no alignment issues with my serial 630 unit, been using it tons for about a month now.
I really didn't like how strong those magnets were and it constantly bothered me, not tryin to say that the magnets are bad, or tell you to get a different case...but if it can effect rotation, and I haven't had an alignment issue.....it kinda makes me wonder if it is causing some problems for people, I really can't say for sure, just thought I would share my info.
Thank you for your reply.
I understand your point of view!
The magnets are surely many strenght... indeed the screen rotation of TyTN is commanded from a magnet... so the magnets of the bundle case are so strength to create a false output...
However I have heard from HTC throughts email... and they are told me that the problem is hardware... so I think that the problem has been the magnet case... they have already advise us... (I dont think that they really wont to change or repair a lot of device if it is possible to have a simply solution: dont using the case!).
What do you think about this? Is there other experience with the boundle case? Any idea?
I'm also sorry to cant use a good case that I have already pay eheheheh
Thanks!
Stefano
I have screen alignemnt issue, and I have NEVER used the magnet case, so I can say the issue is not related to the case.
The hardware they referred to is internal TyTN hardware and not case related would be my guess. Those persons with the screen alignment problem that are outside of the return period are getting the devices fixed without having the case replaced.
Cool...I was hoping some people would say they had alignnent issues and hadn't used the case, I really couldn't say for sure.
I did end up having to cut the top bar out of my aluminum case, cause it caused the screen to flicker at times, and that combined with the screen rotating just made me wonder what all issues could happen with certain cases.
Its a good thing that the case can be ruled out of the cause for alignment issues.
Thank you pof and thanks to all... It's a good thing to know that the issue was occurring also without utilization the bundle case (sorry pof, I wouldnt like to say that I'm glad for your SA problem, conversely I'm sorry for your issue and I hope that you can solve... so like all people have this device with the SA!).
Also, if HTC dont replace the bundle case when a device presents the SA problem is another information that could rule out doubts related the case...
What do you think?

Screen Rotation causes missed calls
I have been having an ongoing problem with answering incoming calls... It seems that whenever I remove the phone from the case, the screen is rotated. As the screen is rotating back, the TyTN seems to drop the call.. too much CPU in rotating the screen? Anyway, I never thought it was the magnet in the OEM case (which is a great case, otherwise). I will try another case to see if the call answering problem goes away. Thanks!
I dont know if your issue with the incoming call is related with the screen rotation, but I can tell that the screen rotation seems has been only when yhou put the TyTN power-on in the case... or if you touch the power button when you eztracting the device from the case. I dont think that the device stay with the screen rotate when the power i s off. But I cant really sure... only I suppose...
Ciao
Stefano
Is there anyone that he would like to tell us the own experience with TyTN, the bundle case and the possibile appears of SA issue... for understand the possibile correspondence with bundle case and the alignment problems?
Thanks
Stefano

One quick fix for this problem :-
Sharp blade on the four edges of the case removes four very powerfull magnets and two washers ?
Re glue corners with superglue and attach small piece of velcro to keep flap closed.
Worked for me and no screen rotating issues with this case
I bought an IDS case from Hong Kong ($ 25) and I am not impressed with the quality. Good ideas but badly executed. So now I am back to the HTC magnetic job. I don't have any SA problems but I do notice that the magnetic force causes screen rotation. I have also experienced call dropping on removing the TyTN from the OE case.
But I am sure HTC are aware of the magnetic influence and find it quite acceptable.

Mistakingly answering calls
Strangly, the strong magnet in the bundled case causes the phone to answer calls during sliding it out.
This is somehow a reason for why I am searching now for a Bluetooth headset that has a caller ID mini LCD.

[Q] Acer Liquid E3 Flip Case tweaking?

Hi all!
I've purchased an official Flip Case from Acer and it's pretty cool but it has some quirks:
The AcerRAPID button on the back has become immensely sensitive, which results in camera activation, which in turn heats up the device, which creates a dangerous situation in my pocket (close to vital parts). Is there a way to extend the amount of seconds the button has to be pressed before activating the camera?
When Flip Cover functionality is activated, the screen turns on in my pocket often, which drains battery faster. Is there a way to adjust the amount of time before waking up the screen?
I've looked inside the Xposed Framework but couldn't find any tweaks there. I didn't have the AcerRAPID problem without the case btw. I know I can just disable these features but that defeats the purpose (and awesomeness) of the case. If there is no solution to the above, is there a way to make the Flip Case functionality work for calling (pick up/end the call through the case's window) without the screen (de-)activation when flipping it?
Sorry for rambling on, I just want to be as complete as possible =) Thanks for your time!
Device: Acer Liquid E3 (E380)
Android: 4.2.2 (stock)
Kernel: 3.4.5
Root: Yes
Build: Acer_AV052_E380_1.005.00_EMEA_BGCs
I have the exact same problems as you
This thread seems dead, but have you found an solution?? Other xda members any ideas???
Sent from my E380 using XDA Free mobile app
Nope, no solution. I currently just enable "Flip wakeup" when I'm calling/receiving calls often (weekends) and turn it off when not calling as much (work weeks). I've been searching for values with SQLite Editor but can't determine where those parameters are, if any.
The thing about the calls is, I found, that the tiny hole in the ear area to match with the proximity sensor doesn't align very well. They should've designed this case with some more firm hinges instead of flimsy fabric.
I do appreciate the landscape functionality with the case, which allows me to comfortably watch movies during lunch break. That's about it ^_^

[Q] Back camera protection?

hello all note 3 user there.. we know its a awesome device with an awesome design and camera is brilliant! but one thing that is annoying is that the back camera sticks out and doenst allow the phone to sit/sleep straight without touching the camera area or part (without cases or very think casing). anyone has DIY idea or any idea where to get the protector? last year when i bought a secondhand note 3 it has a small metal 'O' ring attached around the flash there and its good cause it help to lift the camera part up and it doesnt touch the lens when i put it on the table but i cant find that small metal 'O' ring anywhere..
cheers!

Galaxy S8 Auto Brightness problem [solved] and proximity sensor

Making this thread so that something pops up in google for other people searching for help with these issues.
Was unable to get auto brightness to work on my Galaxy S8 - it stayed dim outdoors and was impossible to see. The light sensor was working perfectly (showed change using the Sensor Box app), it just had no effect on the screen brightness.
In the course of things (including having my local Samsung repair centre replace the phone) I eventually worked out that it was my phone case. Specifically, the MAGNETS in it.
I can't post links yet, but the eBay item id of the case I bought is 162444029744 so you can see the sort of case I'm talking about.
When held up against the magnets, auto brightness doesn't work. As soon as you move the magnets away, the brightness instantly jumps to the right level. If I held the back of the phone up to the side of the case WITHOUT the magnets, auto brightness would work correctly.
The magnets in the case ALSO stop the proximity sensor from turning the screen off when held up to your face during calls. Just checked it then - put my hand in front of the sensor with no case, screen goes off. Put the phone against a magnet, screen stays on.
Same problem
I noticed the same with mine. I received a follow-up call from Samsung after having my phone for about 1 week. I informed them of the screen auto-brightness function not working. They told me it's normal. I had to convince them and their technician it's not.
I then backed up my phone and was about to take it in, in 2 hours time, until I saw your post. And yup, I have the magnetic case too. Same problem.
Didn't have that issue with my S6 though. Same magnetic case.
Thanks for the post.
S8 phone case magnet fix - Auto-brightness [SOLVED]
This has been bugging me for weeks ever since I got my case from Wish. Restart the phone and it all works for a moment, then the sensors fail again. Thanks to this post I took my case off and all is good.
I found my particular case has 6 small magnets in the back cover to hold it in my wallet. I removed the lower right magnet (as you look at the back) and both my phone and case are now working properly.
Hope this helps
Same issue, although mine comes from a magnetic car mount (diy).
I was just thinking of getting a magnetic wireless-charging car mount (with the metal ring that goes into the phone case)...
Apart from the auto-brightness issue, did you notice anything else behaving quirky? Was the phone getting hot, or the screen misbehaving, etc... Also, where were the mount's magnets in relation to the phone; I suppose vertically centered?
I'd call Samsung and ask, they should know best, but since it's not the engineers on the phone, but just tech support people, they'll probably just repeat the "only buy our stuff" nonsense instead of giving any useful reply

I ordered the same phone and case.. mine have not arrived yet though
I did see on my wifes P20 pro, there is a separate toggle for the smart view case that needs to be turned on. Is that option on?

Yeah i have it on !
What it does is when its on when you close the cover it turn off the screen and display the time and when you open the cover the screen turn on*
but if you turn it off nothing work when you close the cover so the option work as intended
i also tried disabling touch disable mode that prevent the phone to perform action when in pocket but no luck
same issue in this post with huawei mate 10 pro but no answer since may 2018 :/
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mate-10/help/mate-10-pro-display-smart-view-flip-case-t3719751
Just saw this video and it seems to happen to this dude i can't understand to what he say but i think its not a problem its designed to be that way....
Its so frustrating because i alway listen to music via my phone and when music is playing i have the cover on, the phone display the music control for 10sec and it dissapear so useless :'(
Same problem here!
It's not going to stay on, without the case closed and AOD on cover all the sensors on the notch with your hand and the AOD will turn off, there is no way to keep it on with the case shut. I found this out with my P20 Pro last year.
I got sick of this cover after 10 seconds due to the case covering the notification light, blurry front view window and AOD switching off after 10 seconds. At first I thought the ambient light sensor being blocked by the case was the problem (the sensor which is an inch to the right of the earphone speaker, which determines whether or not your phone is face down, or in your pocket/bag in order to switch the screen/AOD off to save battery) so I took a knife to the cover to see if that helped. It didn't. Even after cutting a section of the case out and exposing the ambient light sensor it still doesn't keep AOD on. I have attached a photo in the link below of my butchered cover for comedy purposes

It's by design, cause in the Smart View window the content does not move like full-screen AOD without the cover. So without moving the content it's going to burn-in, and therefor AOD is not implemented in Smart View.

LOL... now you have double window flip case
I have an issue where sometimes the smart cover doesn't activate when I have an incoming call and I would have to flip the cover open to answer call. How can I fix this problem
Just got my mate 20 pro and that cover. Sucks to have no clock. It works on the P20 Pro. So much for burn in...
Hi, same boat like you guys. Hope that 9.1 is magic but I don't think so

Lets hope so. I changed to a silicon case + screen protector for now. I really want that AOD.
