[Q] GT-i9500 Air View & Smart Stay not working

Hi, I just bought my Galaxy S4 (i9500) yesterday, June 28th.
Since the moment i bought it, I am facing the following issues.
AIR VIEW:
Air View is working while I am watching videos and i want to forward them. But it doesnt work with stock email app, messaging, webpages etc. I tried disabling and re-enabling the air-view and air-gestures, but the problem isnt solved.
Smart Stay/Scroll:
Also, smart stay doesnt work, the video isnt paused when i look away from the screen. Neither does the smart scroll work with webpages.
Please help me with these issues. How can i solve them ? Do i need to change some settings ?
Thanks.

try that
menu-systen setting-my device-accessibility- and put magnification gesture to off
should help for air view
Hit thanks if that help
Thank you. The air view and air gestures are working fine. But the SMART PAUSE feature is still not working. I have enabled it in settings, but cant use it while watching videos.
PLEASE HELP..
I have the same problem. Tried several roms and kernels but no luck. If the smart stay uses the front cam to function which then cam is fully functional, I suspect is software related
Edit: latest Samsung firmware (MGG) fixed all my problems

Maybe you are blocking the front cam with your finger? Or its dirty, or you wear glasses?

[Q] Air view for folders in GS4 I9505

I'm on stock 4.4 touchwiz rom and today air view suddenly worked for the folders on my homescreen, but just for once!:crying: Is it possible to explain this? Is it possible to make it work permanently?
I built an app that allows AirView on every app, including launcher https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.frapeti.fingerhovering

Yeah, same here; it works on and off randomly on Touchwiz folders, Google Newsstand widget and another (Dutch) news-app widget, see attached screenshots. Can't figure out what triggers it. If anyone knows how to switch it on permantly, much appreciated!

Sorry to bump such an old thread but I wanted to say that I have exactly the same issue! One day, I noticed I could preview folders with Air view and thought it was a new feature since I updated the software the day before. However it didn't work the next time I tried it. Since then, the feature is very random; sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't.
Really don't know what the exact trigger is...

AirView with fingers?

How to activate AirView to work with fingers like on Note 3?
I also miss that feature especially with speed dial. I couldn't find the option anywhere. It seems to be no longer available
It only works with s pen
Sent from my SM-N910C using XDA Free mobile app
Yes ok, work only with pen but... It's an hardware limitation or just only software?
Seems like hardware to me. When you 'hack' into the hidden settings and enable air view it still doesn't work.

hi ,
there is a thread here " somewhere " ? (Note 4 forum, sorry can't find link at moment )
Best to find it hidden deep in settings is to use a launcher eg. Nova launcher
i tried to activate it ..Nova launcher /long press home screen /select shortcut /activities ..settings select airview (finger)
etc .
i could only get air browse to work 100%( waving above pictures in stock pictures app etc) and accept air call (by waving hand over stock call screen ( ,see screenshot for info)
but still struglling to sort out air finger to work .!
good luck
If you enable ALL the airview tags. Even the one that lists nothing, but still has a toggle switch. Then it does work with your finger, like in the email and message app. However, this stops working as soon as you switch off the screen!? One of the airview tabs causes the settings to crash. I'm sure it's not a hardware issue. Someone will incorporate it all in a sweet rom soon enough. Hopefully indie over at omega rom!

No Self-Capacitive sensor
Hello.
I am sorry to say this, but Samsung removed the self-capacitive touch screen layer from the Galaxy Note 4, because it was used very rarely.
They did not think, that there must be users, that still use this.
Well, power users are only a minority, so they must satisfy minimalists.
developer[dot]sonymobile[dot]com/knowledge-base/technologies/floating-touch/
As a Junior Member, I am unable to parse links. Please forgive me for this inconvinence
The Note 3 was the only one to have three touch screen layers:
Wacom Digitizer (S-Pen)
Normal (Mutual/Multi)-Capacitance
Self-Capacitance (AirTouch)
I hope this helped (Probably not)

In settings there is a point called "Neigung und Steigung kalibrieren (the second point)".
Then put the phone on a flat surface and click "Kalibrieren" (in german
After that, it should be ok...
In this app, you can also calibrate your compass.
Mmmh there are many gps status apps i think i downloaded wrong one... Could you link the right app? Sorry ...

Hi, i had have the same problem and found the solution via google in a chinese forum.
Type *#*#1111#*#* then go to Manual Test - G Sensor Calibration, put your phone on a plane surface (plane to all directions!) and press the the only existing button with chinese signs after calibration press pass and go back to leave Engineer Mode.
Great!

Same problem here. Gyroscope/acelerometer gone crazy.
Any idea to enter "manual testing" on CyanogenMod?
GPS status and other app calibration doesnt work.
Hotfix incoming
It seems like the Problem is known and been worked on
my phone is the same, constantly registering a gforce on the phone. done all the recommended calibrations, but i still get alot of drift in cardboard apps
Any help?
I have installed CM13 NIGHTLY of 13 June and the problem persists: after wipe the /data partition gyroscope settings have been lost and the dialer don't activate Engineer Mode by typing *#*#1111#*#*. So, in my case, it is no more possible to make panoramic photos using Google Camera.

GPS doesn't work when i'm in call

Hi at all,
i want to know if there is someone else that have the same bug in title. Since the .057 update (now i have the .058) the gps completely stops to work when i receive or do a call, with the navigator indication that stops and with gray arrow. It returns to work just after closing the call.
I don't know if is related (i think no), but i noticed this problem in car using a bluetooth headphone. I haven't tried without using, but i suppose that the problem is not related to the use of the bluetooth device. I can reproduce the bug with or without the use of bluetooth headphone.
I tried mobile data reset, clear cache and two different gps apps (google maps and waze) but the problem still persists. I've done a factory reset recently, just after the upgrade to Pie.
I'm the only who have this bug? I opened a thread on zentalk (https://www.asus.com/zentalk/thread-284031-1-1.html), but nobody has replied to me.
I made two videos of the bug.

With waze:
