You don't have Smart Stay turned on do you?

No, I turned it off.

I got it working with a factory reset. Now the phone is running hot during setup. Look like I will be hitting the Verizon store tomorrow.

Screen Recording used to show up when I swiped up from home. Why is it gone now?

I've flashed a couple modes, and maybe done something to turn that option off. Can anyone pinpoint what change would remove that? I remember not seeing it when I first got the phone and one day it wad there. Now it's gone again. Just curious what I might have changed. I have the at&t G2 by the way.

There was another shortcut there too but I can't quite remember what it was. There were 5 in total. Now there are only 3.

Please help me find why my phone is staying awake.

My phone seems to be staying awake a lot longer than the screen is on. I have tried wakelock detector and the apps that have kept the phone awake (Facebook being the main culprit) dont add up to anywhere near the extra wake time. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

For me a simple reboot did the trick. My phone was not switching off unless I pressed the power button, I started to get worried about a hardware issue, but now is ok.

No contact details for Incoming calls in Dock mode (landscape)?

Santa got me an ibolt dock for Christmas. When I get an incoming call it doesn't show the contacts picture or name?
I keep my phone horizontal (landscape) and the Samsung contact/phone app just shows a black space where the picture should be.
IncidendIy, I notice you can't open contacts, select dial and make it rotate to landscape when you turn the phone horizontal in normal (not docked mode)
Is there a setting somewhere I'm missing?

Sorry about the quality, couldn't get a screen grab to work.
One picture shows an incoming call, the other during.
The only way around this is to use hands free mode so it talks and says who's calling.
Has no one else come across this bug?

Same here, you should maybe ask the iBolt guys in their accessory-thread.
Didn't know there was a thread. Thanks, hope it's quicker than their customer services. Took me a month for a reply on a sales query. Not heard back yet about a cable issue I had over a week ago

Thing is it looks like a note 3 dock (Samsung) issue as the dialler is seperate from the ibolt app. Looks like stock dialler to me.

Ha just found this :
"Where is the caller ID?
There is currently a defect in Samsung software preventing the caller ID from showing up when the phone is docked in landscape mode. We have reached out to Samsung and are hoping to have a resolution soon."

Why does my proximity sensor stay on when the screen is off (not in a call)

So playing around with some night vision goggles I discovered the proximity sensor turns on when the screen turns off. I tried a phone call and discovered the flash pattern was the same. I played around with the settings but could find nothing that could explain this (on my s4 quick glance the culprit). Does anyone know why this is happening?

Possibly related to the feature where our will answer a call if you place the phone to your face

Wouldn't it start looking for your face only when a call is coming through?

The sensor stays on to prevent knock-on from working in your pocket. If it detects that the phone is in an enclosed space, it will not knock-on.

Quiet mode not working

I am on stock Rom not rooted. When I use quiet mode it does not turn on during the scheduled time. It only works if I manually turn it on. Does anyone know a fix for this.
Thanks.
