S-View cover randomly stops doing the auto wake on/off - Galaxy S 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the wireless S-View Cover and it randomly stops doing the auto wake on/off screen when opening and shutting the flip cover.
A quick reboot gets it working again though, so it's not the cover, but probably an OS issue or something
Anyone else have this problem?

So far, I am suspecting the first Gen samsung wireless charging pad, since it always seems to happen after placing it on the pad

Screen Wake Speed With Smart Cover - Increase Wake Speed??

Hi,
I have the MOKO slim case, just wondering if im able to increase the speed in which the screen wakes when I open the case?
Been looking and there are some mods to edit the proximity sensor but I believe its another sensor id need to modify.
Any ideas chaps?
I want to have less of a wait turning the screen on when I pull back the cover
Thanks

I don't know about you but my tab is awake the second I lift up the cover an inch away... By the time it is fully open it is well awake
mine kinda takes a little while too, but i dont really mind it. I have the moko too and by the time i get the flap behind the tablet its on
Sometimes it will lag if you closed it on a different orientation then your opening it. (Portrait/landscape)

5.1 Touchscreen unresponsive with flip cover

EDIT: ok, touchscreen unresponsiveness after long standby happens due to flip cover. so this could be a major bug in the 5.1 update that needs to be fixed. i hope we will get a few ota updates with fixes for our problems.
yeah, as the title said, i can't use my tablet after it was in deepsleep/standby for too long in android 5.1 lollipop.
Scenario: after long standby/deepsleep time i pressed the power button to turn the screen on. the lockscreen (swipe only gesture) appears. i want to unlock the device by swiping up but it doesn't work as if i didn't even touch the screen.
only workaround for me at this moment is to hold the power button for a few seconds so it shuts down (NOT Force reboot, it still says "shutting down" or something like that). after that i turn it back on, let it boot until it finishes. now the touchscreen works again.
short: long standby/deepsleep equals touchscreen completely unresponsive
rebooting equals a workaround solution that is really anoying for me everytime
did anyone experience this problem, too?
does someone know how to fix this?
EDIT: BTW everything works just fine and runs really smooth except for the unresponsive screen while too long in standby.
it could be that my flip cover causes this to happen.
I CANNOT confirm anything yet.
i will try it a few times more with flip cover on top of the display and without the flip cover on display. (could be bad calibrated magnetic sensor or just bad programming overall)
maybe i will know more after that. i will report back in this thread if anything happens.
seems to be solved due to clean restore of 5.1 (READ FIRST POST RED COLORED EDIT LINE)
back again, thought it went away. in the last hours the unresponsiveness bug happend again (2 times; probably due to flip cover)). my thought is that nvidia went on to the flip cover bug from kitkat, tried to fix it and made it worse instead of getting rid of it.
OMG, really? This bug not only still exists but has become even worse? Ridiculous... glad I don't even use my cover any more... I'm not even sure where I put it ^_^ It's stuff like this and the issues with the Shield Tab that kept me from buying the Shield TV, even though I really really want one.
not flip cover issue... its happening ever since i updated to lollipop. only stylus works and finger touch is unresponsive.. sometimes the stylus also doesnt works
Same problem here Blaze! Sometimes finger touch is unresponsive, only works with the stylus! This is terrible [emoji17]

Display On/Off using proximity sensor and cover?

Anyone knows app working with custom MM (especially RR 5.7.4), which can be used with Flip Cover "designed by Motorola" and works?
Tried few apps from Play Store (Smart Cover, Smart Screen On/Off Auto, Smart Screen On Off (New)) and nothing works...
I would love feature like this. Any idea?
Sensor is OK in CPU-Z and when calling.
EDIT: IntelliCover vibrates when opening/closing cover so it's OK, but still screen doesn't turn on/off...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Have you tried Gravity Screen?
No. Tried it now and it's not made for cover, but still it works exactly same as IntelliCover - vibrates when I close the cover when display is off (when on, vibrations are not triggered) and turns on the screen when I open the cover.
It turns off the disolay, but only when proximity is covered AND display is pointing down....
So it too doesn't turn off the display by itself ONLY when I close the cover...
It's better than nothing that it turn screen on, but would prefer something which works both ways.
Had to change working angle and it works
Thanks
The only problem is tat it's to sensitive...

Note 3 (9005) Flip Cover Triggering No Flip Cover

I have a problem with my Note 3 I wondered if anyone could help with I have been getting lag and all sorts of other issues and have narrowed it down to the phone constant Lu being polled that it has a flip cover installed open/closed constantly
I put Lineageos 14.1 on and found turning off flip screen completely atopa there being flickering and the small flip screen box being displayed but phone lags somewhat presumably due to the polling anyway.
I have cleaned contacts next to.battery and sometimes ohkme will boot with no issues with flip cover polling but lost often not
I can disable flip screen in 14.1 but it won't to.to sleep as it detects the flip screen polling as activity
Any ideas pleaee ?
Can I disable it completely at OS level ?
Or would shorting the connectors or something work ?
I'm not sure how the signal from the case to ohkme works ? Is it a simple high low bit or more complex ?
Many thanks for any help

Oneplus 6T screen keeps turning off/on

This didn't happen before, but once I bought a magnetic flip case. The screen keeps turning off/on. Because of this I returned the case as it made my 6T annoying to use and now it doesn't happen. Then I tested the screen with a magnet and the same problem happens. When a magnet is close to the alert slider on the screen, it turns off and on when the magnet is away from the screen. Is this normal or is it just me?
