Waking up screen call waiting - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I searched and can't find an answer....when I am on the phone using my Bluetooth and call or text comes in my screen doesn't wake to show who it is.
I have looked through all of the phone settings and can't find a solution. I just got my S4 and I know my S3 screen came on so I could see who is calling or the text message body.

Standby for Screen on M600

Is there a way of making the screen not touch sensitive when receiving a text or call. On numerous occasions I have received a text message when the phone has been in my pocket and Ive not heard it. When the text is received the phone takes itself from the standby position and activates the touch screen, which, when in my pocket moving, around triggers off all sorts of applications and usually locks up. One day I will manage to delete something important, Im sure of it.

Screen enables when receiving call or sms

First of all I love how you can enable the screenlock with the (hardware)key on top of the Xperia.
But when my screen is locked, for example when I have it in my pocket, and somebody calls of text message me the screenlock disables. Because of it being a touchscreen I've been calling people and such while I didn't even notice.
Is there anyway to let the screen light up when you receive a call or text message without it directly enabling the screen (touch sensitivity?). I mean with installing all kind of programs.
XperiaTweak?
Damn.. I even had that one installed. Just adjusted two settingoptions. Hopefully it will work.
Thanks.

Annoying Auto LCD Turn Off While Making Call

Hi all, I absolutely love the HD2. However, I find one really annoying problem about the "auto LCD shut off between dialing and after a call is connected, and this has been really driving me crazy! I'm not sure why no one has mentioned about this, is it because it is my problem of mis-using it or no one has bothered to voice it up?? I apologized if this has been posted but I couldn't find one solution so far.
It is about the auto LCD shut off sensor feature while making a call. My English is not that good, my mother tongue is Chinese, I will try my best to describe the problem written in English. I've tried so many cooked roms, all have the same old frustrating issue. After when I've dialed a number, as most ppl do, I will put the phone near my ear while waiting for the call to get connected. However, in the process while making the call while the phone is near my ear, the LCD will shut off by itself, and when a call is connected, the annoying issue will occur! When a call is connected, the LCD will turn back on by itself even though the phone is still in tack with the ear, as a result, part of our face will make contact on the screen and very often pressing one of the on-screen buttons! Also, it is not only this problem will happen after a call is connected, during a process of calling or during a conversation, if there is a notification prompted out, for example, a sms have been received, or a email has been received or low battery notification, the LCD will always turn back on and make the face accidentally press on one of the on-screen button, this is really annoying, is there a solution to let the sensor shut off the LCD for good until the phone has really get away from the ear and the face???
It's not a problem
It's an advantage
HTC did that to prevent you from touching anything with your ear and you cheek and maybe without this you could end the call accidentally or lunching apps so and so .....
Some people have found that this happens when their screen protector is too close or covering the sensor. Cutting away a small ammount of the screen protector to make sure it doesn't interfere with the sensor seems to be the answer.
Not sure you have read his question correctly - it turns off when he puts it to his head, which he wants, but then it turns back on again when the call connects.
I have the same problem, (incidentally had the same problem with a Diamond and Omnia II with Tachi phone canvas). Only solution was to breifly move it away from your head and back again, which I just got used to.
No idea how to solve it though. Sorry.

Anyone else seeing touch panel lock message?

I've been using the Sharp Aquos Crystal for a few days now and loving it mostly, however occasionally when I have a particular grip on the phone the touch screen stops working and I get a popup that says something like "The touch panel has been locked due to a lack of response .... Move your hand or thing away from ..." The popup disappears very quickly so I haven't been able to get the full text written down or a picture snapped, but I was wondering if anyone else had noticed this and had figured out what it meant.
when u turn on the brightkeep function,the message will pop up while u try to opreating your phone when it on a flat surface. either turn the function off or hold your phone by your hand when opreating will fix it. I am new here. and i got a softbank 305sh. hope this will be helpful.
I think it is caused by the tiny censor at the right bottom side .
Maybe you turn on "Sweep ON" function? if you turn it off, it won't show up but since this device got a power button on some place, hard to push, so I can't turn it off..
the best way, operate your phone with the left hand
When this happens to me, I point the little sensor up or at a light source for a second and that seems to work every time.
The message:" Touch Panel is locked due to the response of sensor on lower right of screen. Move your hand or thing away". This happens a lot and no matter what I turn on or off doesn't stop it. I send an email to Sharp and their response was that my phone needs to be serviced. I called Boost Mobile and the guy was giving me a hard time so I can either ship it away and hope they don't damage my phone too much or live with it but it happens more times than not and usually when I'm sending a text or email.
Happens a lot on mine as well especially if I wear long sleeve or using it on a blanket.that message just show up whenever the lower right of the phone touch the cloth. hand is not at much as a problem.

Note 4 display turning on during calls

Hi.
I have an SM-910F, android version 5.0.1 with a bugging problem. During calls when i get a second call or some other notification the screen turns on and i end up pressing different buttons and commands with my cheek. proximity sensor functions ok as it turns on and off correctly when i dont have call waiting or when no other notifications get in the way. i believe the problem comes from the stock phone app which cant be replaced. i tried in call settings to disable "Notify during calls" and/or the "Call-related pop-ups", all in vain. It is very annoying as i ended some calls and noticed i opened almost 10 new windows (bluetooth, mobile data aso screens).
is anyone else having this issue? is there a solution to this?
my only hope is that this will be fixed with the new android update (5.1.1) which seems to be taking forever.
Anyone?

I face the same issue too especially when I'm getting a pop up call notification. I just put the phone back and forth on my ear an it works sometimes. Guess it's a Samsung bug.
and still no word on the android update. i need a fix for this issue. its annoying
well, the update arrived but with no damn fix
