Hello!
I'm using the Xiaomi Mi 11 Lite 5G on Taiwanese ROM V12.5.1.0.RKITWXM. I'm looking for Pocket mode, but I cannot find this option in the Settings menu. My problem is that I set screen unlock by trusted bluetooth device and when I put the phone in my pocket, after a while it automatically unlocks the screen and starts pressing things like triggering the assistant, opening apps etc. Back on my previous phone (Poco X3 NFC on Android 10, MIUI 12.0) I had an option to turn on Pocket mode to prevent accidental unlocks. Where is this option on the Mi 11 Lite 5G on MIUI 12.5?! Is it removed?
Me too.My Mi 11lite always lights up in my pocket when I run in no underwear every night.My pants light up too, I am naked.so embarrassed.

Turning off the screen double-tap feature, turning off the screen shape feature when there is a notification, and turning off the pick-up to wake-up feature will improve the problem of the phone opening itself in the pocket.

It seems, that the Always on Display isn't always on, when using the Smart View Flip Case.
When I close the Flipcover, then the displayed time, etc. go off after few seconds.
NFC is on and the smart case option with window is enabled.
Without the case, the always on display is off only, when something hiding the light sensor.
With the smart cover, when the flpcover hides it, the display is off.
Is there any option, that enables the AOD with the flipcase?

I tried
Same for me with the same case
Wow....too bad I didn't see this before ordering my case. Just received it today, and experiencing the same issue. AlwaysOnDisplay is clearly marked as enabled, but the smart cover only displays info for a few seconds and then goes off. Is there not a switch somewhere to make this cover stay on? I don't really care how often I need to recharge the device, so saving battery is not an issue for me. I want to be able to simply glance at the phone's smart cover and quickly see what I need to know without touching the phone. Oddly enough, without the smart cover, the AOD works just fine. Guess the "smart cover" is not too smart after all.
Flip case
I have the same problem. I contacted Huawei who said that their sample didn't have the same issue and the display is always on in the case window. I haven't been able to find a retailer with a Mate 10 Pro to test whether this is a problem with the case or with the phone.
Same issue on the P20 Pro / Smart Cover, have tweeted them but expect little response.
Same Problem with the mate 10 pro
Guys, there is a setting for it disabling screen if put in your pocket. the phone thinks the case is in your pocket. Try turninf off the Touch Disable mode switch located under smart Assistance. that or try the smart cover settings.
It's my friend's mate 10 but I have the mate 9. I think my phone used to do the same thing before I put a different ROM. With the screen locked when you handle the phone the clock appears. He doesn't like that so is there is setting to shut it off.
It's under the motion control, flip setting
I have a Mi A3 and think it's great, but there is one issue I'm facing.. the fingerprint sensor is always active and when the phone is in my pocket and touches my leg, it wakes the screen after X failed attempts.
Multiple times I've pulled out my phone to find my leg has been typing numbers into the emergency dialler..
Is there any way (prefer no root - but so be it if needed..) to use the proximity sensor to kill the FP sensor? That way when it's covered in my pocket the FP sensor would be disabled and stop waking the phone all the time.
And before anyone says just put in your pocket with the screen out.. well that's just asking to get it smashed ?
Try disabling "show fingeprint icon when screen is off" feature.
Tried that one already. Unfortunately the sensor is still alive so if something touches it the phone attempts to unlock.
After a couple of attempts it seems to turn on and show buttons for emergency dialler / pin unlock.
Not sure if this would be usable on A3, but you could try this approach:
https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/153948/completely-disable-the-fingerprint-sensor
Edit: just tried it on my A1. I can disable the FP sensor with:
Code:
echo soc:fpc1020 > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/fpc1020/unbind
BUT, can't get it back yet (only with reboot): this should be the correct command, but it doesn't do anything
Code:
echo soc:fpc1020 > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/fpc1020/bind
Custom ROMs have something like pocket mode that detects and prevents it don't they? I wish something like that would be available for stock as well. Wouldn't mind root.
I have the same problems with scanner acting in a pocket. Looks like I have to disable scanner for now. This can be done by removing recorded fingerprints from settings.
As a workaround for emergency dialing, you can use WaveUp app and set it to lock with proximity sensor. It probably won't prevent fingerprint readings, but at least the display will turn off in your pocket. Works best with root, I'm using it on Mi A1. "Turn display on when removing from pocket" feature is highly addictive. I use HW power button mainly for taking screenshots now..
Edit: Tasker with states "proximity sensor and orientation - phone upside down" and task "display - turn off" can do the same if you want to keep it simple.
Edit 2: Nicer Tasker profile, turns screen off only when the screen is locked (prevents accidental locks while using the phone):
Profile 1 - state "proximity sensor" + state variable value "%SCREEN_LOCKED ~ true", task "display - turn off"
Profile 2 - event "display unlocked", task "variable set, %SCREEN_LOCKED to false"
Profile 3 - event "display off", task "variable set, %SCREEN_LOCKED to true"
Turn display on&off with power button and you are good to go.
Thanks will give the commands a go when I get chance and see if it works on the A3.
put you phone opposite side .... screen upwards in pocket.
hi this feature works on my device when i turn off the proximity sensor the fingerprint icon does not show up on the screen
I have this problem too with Android 11.
I wanted to try the method with fpc1020 driver. The driver is here, but what is weird, that in /sys/bus/platform/devices is not such device attached :/
The easily way to do this is root the phone. After this you can disable all useless features

I have rooted phone but you probably doesn't understand the problem.
I don't want to completely disable fingerprint, I just want the FP to be disabled by proximity sensor, because it's bul*** to have enabled FP in pocket...

There"s a quick setting to add by developer settings that disable all sensors. Have you tryed? Maybe it work
Hi Guys,
I have the Ticwatch Pro 3 and it's great.
But I have a little problem. I love Always on Display (AOD) and in some situations I also like to set the display not to go into dimming mode via StayLit Wear with the "indefinitely" mode. This also worked great with my Huawei Watch 2, even when I put my arm down on the home screen, even if you can see the time normally. If I set the "indefinitely" mode with the StayLit Wear app on the Ticwatch Pro 3, it works that the Ticwatch Pro 3 always remains active, but only if, for example, I have the settings open or I am in the app selection and if an app is open even if I put my arm down. It also works on the home screen when I have my arm up all the time and look at the clock. But as soon as I'm on the homescreen and I turn my arm away or take it down, the watch always goes into dimming mode, despite the "indefinitely" mode of StayLit Wear.
That could actually only be due to the fact that Mobvoi has specified this in some system file for Wear OS, right?
Can I possibly edit the specific system file, or do something via ADB Shell so that I can set it so that the Ticwatch Pro 3 does not go into dimming mode as soon as I turn the arm away or take it down so that it is only time-controlled again is when the display goes into dimming mode and is not forced to dim when I turn my arm away or take it down?
Possibly for better understanding:
So it works with my Huawei Watch 2.
However, with the Huawei it is also the case that the change to the dimming mode does not happen automatically when I turn my arm away or take it down, but it is purely based on the set time of seconds until the display in the AOD is dimmed.
With the Ticwatch, however, this is set somewhere in such a way that the display not only goes into dimming mode based on the set seconds, but also presumably controlled by a sensor, from a certain angle regardless of the set seconds, immediately goes into dimming mode.
And I want to get rid of the sensor, that the dimming mode is forced and my question is whether someone knows where I can do that.
Thank you in advance for your feedback.

I know this is an old thread but did anyone find a solution for this ? I'm left handed so am using Lefty to flip the screen so I can wear it on my right wrist but if hold it too high and vertical it goes to sleep. I have to keep my arm somewhat flat and look over it I can't bring it to my face
Disable gestures?
...
I don't know anything about how under-screen fp readers work, but... Is there no way to use it when the screen is off?
On previous phones I always used the fingerprint sensor to turn on and unlock with one touch, but this N20 5G seems to only fp-unlock when A) The screen is on, and B) The "fingerprint goes here" icon is visible.
The screen will usually turn on when I pick up the phone ("Somatic Gesture"); the fingerprint icon then appears for a few seconds, then goes away. That seems to be the only window for unlocking without clicking the power button.
Am I missing a trick?
I use double tap to wake and it works great. The sensor stays lit up for about 7 full seconds before going black. YMMV
Good point, double-tap to wake was disabled by default!
Still two more taps than I'd prefer to get to the fingerprint unlock, but I guess that's more a reflection of how incredibly lazy I've become than a problem with the phone.
