Hi, when i had Nokia 5 with filip cover, opening or closing lid woke/suspended device, i bough such cover with magnet for Nokia 7.2 but closing lid does nothing.
Android 10, havent tried with 9.
Is it working for anyone?
As far as I am aware there is no hall sensor on this 7.2

After I updated my Nokia Lumia 920. the screen turns off when im dialing someone, and the only way to get it back is to restart it or if the person on the other end hangs up.
Could it be the light sensor? or is it just the phone update that messed it up?
http://discussions.nokia.com/t5/Nok...n-t-switch-off-Lumia-920/td-p/1606440/page/10
Thanks!
I will return it tomorrow, since im not ready to open it after 20 days of use
now its REALLY FIXED but need to open the phone (only two screws )
Symptoms:
Experience screen and touch sensor switch off during a call, Notifications (the screen stays off, like if it was in a pocket) which doesn't turn on as usual.
Try:
If during a call you press and hold the upper left corner of the glass -just between the speaker and the upper left corner- you will notice that the sensor works as expected.
I think :
Because of the layered nature of the phone internals design and the heavy use of ribbon connectors it had to be tight to connect the board with the sensor.
My Solution:
I just added a peace of sponge (W:4mm/H:5mm/L:15mm) (all weather door and window sealant) -that comes self adheasive from one side- and sticked a small peace on the board on the opposite side of the phonejack/secondary mic connectors (Pictures attached) this will add pressure on the board to be more tight tried it and working as normal.

Mine is suffering the same issue. In the Nokia forums one user recommended to "blow air" across the top of the phone where the display meets the case right above the Nokia logo. I did this and now my proximity sensor is working. It's got to be dust getting on the sensor. I'm going to take mine apart and see if I can come up with a seal for the FFC and proximity sensor.
hey, I'm on Lineage 14.1.. I own the official xiaomi smart cover for Redmi Note 4 and it seems that it is unsupported on Lineage... (UPDATE - unsupported on all custom ROMs)
third party apps on play store use proximity sensor to enable support for the covers which is really bad.. the only app that uses the hall sensor (Hall Monitor on F-Droid) doesn't work on this ROM... i have lineage rooted..
can anyone suggest me a ROM where Hall Monitor works? or some other app or something (except MIUI) that supports magnet based smart covers..
__________________________________________________
Update: finally I have found the issue.. all apps that are claiming to use magnetic smart cover are using the magnetometer sensor that's attached on the motherboard on the top portion of the phone.. The smart cover has the magnet at bottom-middle... so the apps aren't working..
The hall sensor (BU52061NVX ROHM_HALL_EFFECT) lies in the bottom middle below the home button which was used to implement the smart cover in MIUI...
I have asked the dev to add built in support for lock/unlock feature in the appropriate thread..
__________________________________________________
IF ANYONE WANTS TO IMPLEMENT IT
Update 2 - I thought the hall sensor would be like the geomagnetic sensor but it is not. It is a switch with two states.
The default behaviour when smart cover option is checked in settings is -
1) Magnet closed - Lock the screen
2) Magnet removed - Wake the screen up
PS - i will be more than happy if someone can implement the lock/unlock.. the window for accepting/rejecting calls isn't really important for me..
I buy also a smart cover for note4 Sd but i doenst work on stock (7.2.16 - 7.3.16). Did it work by you with stock miui?

If you are talking about this one - http://m(dot)buy(dot)mi(dot)com/in/item/3164700002
yes it works on stock MIUI... go to settings > lock screen > smart cover > windowed smart cover (NOT lattice smart cover).. and it will work
Thanx, my settings are ok but it dont work, i have THIS one. I can see the magnet in the case (its in high of the home button).

Using the app Sensoroid, I can see that it is the LTR579 ALSPS sensor. It appears 2 times in the app, but it works with both.
Now one would have to listen to that sensor to lock the device on close of the cover. For open, it would be less important, because you can wake the device with the fingerprint sensor.
I also tried the app "Automaton", but it cannot use that sensor. However, even if it could, it locks the device with Administrator rights. That means, that unlocking with fingerprint does not work.
So, that is 2 challenges here.
smart cover lock not working in redmi 5a can anyone help
Hi I have a same problem at Xiaomi MI5s and case is NILKIN.
However, I have just identified the cause of the problem.
It was due to the dropout of the magnet chip inside the flap of NILKIN.
To identify the problem, please use other flap case.
Chao.
I've got the same problem.
It seems like the developpers don't like smart cases for this phone. THey like to use it without it, other wise I don't understand why nobody is building an option for smart case.
I think nobody should like smart covers with a magnet as they seize from function magnetic field sensor which is much more important.
A hall sensor is a nice mechanical switch which needs no supply but unfortunately it needs magnetic field to operate.
Proximity sensor should do the job fine, the drawback is it will drain some current and it should be a second one placed in other place
In my opinion a nice smart cover should somehow generate an instant magnetic field at open/close - N. Tesla should help here - [dynam cover]
If we could concentrate the field to the hall sw it will be the best.

O fi asa cum spui tu, insa cei de la MIUI te contrazic. Ei au o optiune in rom-ul lor pentru tipul acesta de smartcase si functioneaza perfect, doar ca mie nu-mi place MIUI.

Maybe we only need the proximity sensor, but someone should make an option for this phone to display the caller ID without the need to open the smartcase. With my smartcase I can answer the call without open it.
This is my smartcase: https://ru.aliexpress.com/item/-/32837488639.html?spm=a2g0v.search0104.3.1.2910be9cQRM7iA&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0%2Csearchweb201602_5_10152_10151_10065_10344_10068_10342_10325_10343_10546_10340_10548_10341_10696_10084_5722520_10083_5711520_10618_10304_10307_10820_10059_5722620_5722920_5722720_5722820_100031_5711420_10103_10624_10623_10622_10621_10620_10125%2Csearchweb201603_25%2CppcSwitch_7&algo_expid=2249fdd6-697e-4136-be56-ad6aeb775681-0&algo_pvid=2249fdd6-697e-4136-be56-ad6aeb775681&transAbTest=ae803_1&priceBeautifyAB=0
It's nice your case i knew it, bottom window open. I've come to the conclusion that i need one free of magnets, if needed stick the magnet exactly the place i need, alongside magnetron or hall sw depending the app i use.
I think this i like - https://www.honorbuy.com/948-redmi-...-note-4-global-version-flip-leather-case.html
PS am obs ca au optiunea aia, inca nu am smartu' dar comanda e facuta, cred ca mai greu e sa'i gasesc o husa. La cea anterioara am croit la ea pana i'am scos magnetii dar intre timp m'am lasat de croitorie.
I have installed yet the App Easy Smart Cover....it works. But i would really really love it to havew it in the Rom and not use an app with advertisings and so on ... I hope so it is possible and that it comes in near future
Hello everyone !
I have a bug that i can't for the love of god find out by myself so i'm making this thread hopping someone can help me,

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.
I am coming this phone from Huawei P9 that has got Hall Sensor so i am looking for my habits....
I used active flip cover case and my calling screen was different when my phones cover opened and closed on Huawei P9 and i can lock my phone with open and close covers front part.
But i learned that, Redmi Note 8 hasnt got hall sensor and i am having some difficulties...
There is some cover accessories on some shopping websites that look like doing hall sensors job (i think they uses proxymity sensor instead of hall sensor) with an app...
Can they work with those programs with using proxymity sensor with covers instead of hall sensor? (i know they are different but may be act like each other)
Sorry for my bad English but i hope i can describe what i mean...
If I read the spec on different websites, there is written that the Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 plus (5G Version) should include a proximity sensor.
Now I owned a Flip cover and I would expect, that the screen goes on/off if I open /close the cover. Nothing at all.
After check the proximity sensor via app, it looks not as a valid or defect sensor .My device is not rooted till moment.
Does I've a problem or is there really no proximity sensor anymore included?
I own a tab s7. And it certainly has a proximity sensor. It wakes or sleep with my official keyboard case. Just verify if your flip case supports it or is magnetic.
S7 and S7 plus (5G) contains different Hardware.... starting with the Display, Fingerprint sensor ....
The plus non 5g uses magnetic sleep wake not a proxy sensor. That is how mine works.

Does you use the original Samsung book cover or one from the OEM market?
I've a cover, which should have a magnetic strike inside, but the Tablet goes not into the sleeping mode if I close the cover....only after time
I have both a dux Ducis Case and the keyboard cover both work for sleep wake

I have no problem in screen waking on open/close of the cover (official cover). AFAIK, this feature doesn't work based on the proximity sensor. It uses the magnetic field.
Now we have 2 answer
NFC and Magnetic.
NFC I can believe, magnetic with the T976 (7plus 5 G) looks like, that it doesn't work
