[Q] Detach S-Pen DOES NOT wake phone, Help !! - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, guys
recently I notice that if I detach the S-Pen while Note3 is sleep, it doesn't wake the phone until I pressed the 'power button'. I've try de-frosting all apps (but still using greenify). Did I miss any apps that governs the S-pen wake up functionality?
To use the spen I need to pull out and press 'power button'. It's 2-step for me

Go to Settings --> Running services and check to see if the SPenKeeper service is running?

I go to Settings > Application Manager > Running apps
I found SPenKeeper running since boot (been running for 8 hours); I did not greenify this app, it show running in the greenify select menu.
still it doesn't wake the phone. It does vibrate though, I also notice that until I 'power on' the device, then only the 'pop' sound of Action Menu runs.

Could you check with my app Phone INFO ★Samsung★ --> 'Refurbishment Check' menu to make sure it is not a clone one?

Sorry, I have not found the service that wake up by detaching the spen.
The last thing you can try is factory reset the device. You may need to make a full backup.

Sorry not used to xda apps and quoting posts. But thanks.

Thanks. Maybe I'll do that when I'm free. It's easier with titanium backup

[Solved]
I disable the SpenKeeper services using "Disable Service" apps. Somehow the taking out Spen wakes the phone from sleep as usual. Perhaps something went wrong for the SpenKeeper service.

THAT IS !!!
That is becouse you did not use SPen very usual it happemmed to me also , solve with this NOT RESTARTING APP , from time to time us a system restart from the Power button and don't panic )))))

Lock Screen Text

I found this app:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

Unfortunately it doesn't work on Sense UI:
Even if you ignore the warning and put your text in, nothing will ever show up on the lock screen.
Is there another app that does something similar and works with Sense UI?
I have Antivirus (free) installed from the Market. The programme includes a lock-screen text.

Just installed it.
I see a "Lost Message" but nowhere to put custom text on the DESIRE lock screen.
Just to clarify, do you have additional text on your DESIRE lock screen? (i.e. the leftmost picture in my signature)
First, I have to admit that I have enabled an unlock pattern (p. 195 English user manual). In Antivirus, push menu > settings > > Remote > FindeR and Remote > Lost Message: You can insert the text you wish (like your Arthur Dent details). The info is then visible on the unlock pattern screen, right between your leftmost screen and the home screen.
I too would like something like this, would be even better if could also show calendar events/appointments for the coming week

Ahhh, no wonder!
I don't use the unlock pattern so I never saw it.
I'm looking for a way to put text (my name etc) on the initial screen, when you turn on the phone (like the Contact Owner app shows).
Does anyone know of a way?

Ipad-like mutlitask gestures on lg optimus one

Today I stumbled upon a cool app called GMD Gesture Control, it basically allows you to define global gestures that can be used anywhere and that can do any kind of action, kinda like the "pinch" gesture found in the ipad that closes the current app. The gestures can be defined with custom directions, actions or number of fingers. So you can for example swipe with two fingers down from the top edge of the screen for the device to go to sleep if you have an unreliable sleep button.
Here's the steps needed to be taken to use this app on lg optimus one:
1- Get the app, you can use the lite version for now which disables itself when the mobile is locked and needs to be re enabled, but it gives you a good idea of how the app works:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/...dvb2Rtb29kZHJvaWQuZ2VzdHVyZWNvbnRyb2xkZW1vIl0.
2- Launch the app for the first time, it will show an error that the device is not recognized, here you have to override the default settings to support our mobile, you can do this by tapping the "advanced" tab at the far right, then you will find 2 options at the end of the list, enable both by tapping the "on" button. Then from the "Override multitouch device detection" list choose "touch_mcs6000", then choose from the "override touch events parser detection" list the option "HC_DEFAULT".
3- Restart the service from the main "General" tab, please note that I couldn't get our mobile to support more than 2 fingers gestures, keep that in mind when defining custom gestures or choose "single touch gestures" option in the default gestures tab.
Hope that you all find this useful, this app is extremely fun to use to switch between apps quickly, I use a swipe from the left-right bottom corner to switch between previous/next app. You can really create any kind of creative gesture as you like.
This app is incompatible with your MobiFone LGE LG-P500.
it needs version 3.1 and up
upgrade to ics and install

my screen turns "on" itself to standby mode

Hello, when it happens something that I do not understand with my N4.
Whenever I lock my N4 pressing the button the screen turns off after a few seconds but then (this is random) it turns back on itself, arises on the lockscreen (my home is a diagram) and shuts itself anew after 2 minutes (because it's my time to sleep after non-use).
It breaks my head.
Have you any idea?.
Any special app ?
I do not know, this is not for a particular app.
When I use my phone normally and I put it to sleep, it locks, but the screen turns off after a few seconds the screen turns on for no reason.
And this happens several times per hour alone.
Sorry for my bad english, i am french.
I have the exact same thing! It's annoying! I presume it's a program I installed, but I don't know which. And I'm too lazy to uninstall them one by one... Any program I can use to see what's waking the screen? I'm not rooted btw...
Yes I think that is the cause of a program but I do not know which.
Is there an application to list the process?
Have you installed 'flipturn' or whatever it's called app ?
I don't have an app called flipturn. I don't have any app that starts with the word flip...
Me too i dont have an app called flipturn..
If you don't have any "special" app, I would do a factory reset
It's not bothering me so much that I want to lose all my save data by doing a factory reset....
I had this issue and figured out how to fix it. Problem is, I don't remember how I fixed it. I think it was due to an app waking my phone. Check your apps to see if any of them have the permission to wake your device.

So I made ​​the restoration, i havent had the problem for more than 24 hours (I know because I watched all the time to see if it was ok or not after each lock, I watched as the one for minute)
But since today is the problem recurred.
So what I'll do, I'll redo a restore with the factory image but not new to reinstall my applications because it has to be somewhat of a blind application of the play.
Because I do not think the problem is hardware or it will be declared soon after the restoration, or it is returned after a ten hour (just after installing all my applications because I do not make on).
Its an apk, I had that problem with this apk..

Note 2 Hidden Settings lets you access secret options on rooted Galaxy S4 and Note 2

There’s a lot of settings in an OS that require editing of system files to be changed and are therefore usually off-limits to most users, but if you’re using a rooted Galaxy S4 or Note 2, then a new app called Note 2 Hidden Settings will let you access many secret system settings and toggle them by hitting a button.
The app works on both devices, and will let you do things like adding an exit button to the browser or adding an option to select user agent (desktop, mobile, etc), enabling the enter key on the keyboard into creating a new line, enable infinite scrolling in the launcher and app drawer, toggle a shutter sound menu in the camera, remove that ‘Software Update’ menu in settings, and more.

Looks like it's an app which modifies the csc features. On some roms you have to write the csc codes to /system/csc/feature.xml while others require it to be written to /system/csc/others.xml. Whichever file the app writes to is probably not the correct one for your firmware.

[Q] Press home button shows choose default screen touch wiz

Surprisingly enough I could not find this issue when using the search function. (maybe it is my search capabilities )
Just started using my S5 last week. Now when I touch the home button I get the message to use touchwiz-start.
When I press always (picture says "altijd") it looks like it does not safe this default.

}
It works for an hour or so, and then it is reset so I get this message again when I press the home button.
Searching for this it looks like a lot of people have this issue, but I do not see a working resolution.

Give this a try
Settings > Applications > Application Manager scroll across the screen to All, then scroll down to Touchwiz, you will see Touchwiz Home Easy and Touchwiz Home, check in both apps and if the options are not grayed out tap clear Cache and Clear Defaults, don’t clear Data as that will wipe home screen shortcuts and set up.
Press the back button to get to your Settings > Application screen and tap Default Applications then tap Home and Select Touchwiz Home, once selected press the back button twice to get to the Settings > Application screen then press and hold the Power button and select Restart.
If its cleared all the default data and reset it then your phone should boot into the default Touchwiz home screen, this should work, if it doesn’t then you have an app or something that is causing it so look at what you have updated or installed recently.

Well actually this triggered me to analyse some recent updates I did, and then I saw one app where somebody reported that it was trying to install itself as a touchwizz app. I deinstalled it et voila, problem solved.
I notified the creator of the app that the recent update he delivered is causing this problem.
So thanks for your input, it triggered me to look a bit deeper into the installed apps and solve this problem.
