[HELP]Disable S View Cover Screen - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi
I have the GT-I9500 and a phone mount (http://www.theairdock.com/) with magnets because its a universal mount. Now because of the magnets the hall sensor gets triggered every time I stick my phone to it. Then the stupid S View Cover Screen (black screen with time/date and status bar) comes on and the phone is unusable. Is there any way to turn to off completly that Screen ?
I am running Stock Android Samsung Rom 4.4.2 with Root and xposed no other system mods.

}
What I have done/tried so far without any success:
- force stop com.sec.android.sviewcover app and disabled the app with SystemCleanup that makes only a black screen with statusbar comes on (without time and date as before)
- used xposed with MagnetOff but didn't work, I think its outdated
- used xposed with DisableSView.apk but didn't work either, I think its outdated too but no real chance for update -> https://twitter.com/MohammadAG/status/500027358389489665
- found an other post about hall sensor
1. you can turn off S-VIEW in settings - done !
2. replace your magnetic sensor - no sovle for me at the moment !
3. root the device and write-protect the file hall_data in system folder with value "CLOSED" - how ?
Found in sys/devices/virtual/sec/sec_key the file hall_detect it has only two values "OPEN" or "CLOSE" depend on S View Cover Screen off or on. Tried perimissions change to 0000 but didn't help and after a reboot the perimissions are reseted to default.
4. root the device and try to disable S-VIEW - how ?
5. try other non-samsung rom - no sovle for me at the moment !
So could some update or build a new Xposed Module for that ? Is there any other solution like kernel patch or something like that ? Does someone know how to done Step 3 or 4 (from that other post) ? Any Idea?
I am really desperate about that fact that I can't use my phone when I use that holding.
I'm appreciative any help from you guys.

*bump*

Is there any Developer who could update the "Magnet off" or the "DisableSView.apk" ? I'm still stuck on that stupid S View Screen with my Phone Holder and the CM11 Fork for the GT-I9500 added the same function as well.

Anyone?
Sent from my GT-I9500 using XDA Free mobile app

Do you get any sucess with an other idea ?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2767844
*now i updated cyanogen for a newer version and this feature is gone and the s view is back again.

is it so hard to disable the MAGNET SENSOR ?

Flash any AOSP rom. CM rims have Sview too
If you want to remain stock and avoid the magnet, there is no way as of now
"If someone helps, never forget to hit thanks ? "

Any progress anyone ?
Maybe someone has an idea how to do that.

-RESERVED! -
Here will be released the upcoming "Serenity-ROM", the counterpart to the "firefly"-ROM by me...
Currently the planning period for this ROM is in progress...
I think, it will become a "Low-Ressource" firmware, that will be quie fast...
But you can post any suggestions for this firmware here...
Can you Try following things in your new rom(for 8530) :
1. Please try to make rom fast so that we can play heavy games without lag and unlocking of phone without lag .
2. If possible,try to fix or remove memory leakage issue:silly:
3. if possible,add some kind of sound effect like vodoo or extreme grove in ROM
4. Make hidden bada storage visible via USB.
5. If possible,make GPS fix fast.:silly:
few more things still to come...
Thanks...
Regards,
WaveGuru
1. If it is possible to reduce the lag ... for example when I play Asphalt 6 all widgets are closed.
2. If it is possible to add a Facebook app that lets you know in real time when you receive a message, a LIKE or someone has written on the wall ... etc ... just like on Android.
3. If it is possible to add a GPS application that works and that you know when to turn right or left and when to go ahead ... I hope I did understand, because the already preinstalled, Samsung LBS, must be activated, to look your way from one point to another and to guide you on that road.
Waiting for your rom :good:
1. I think, nearly all widgets will be removed...
2. I'll only work with Java version of FB...
3. It is not planned to include navigation in this rom...
You have it in the "firefly" ROM with Route66... But, you need a license...
First impressions...
Welll....
Work is going on...
THX in advance to hero355, who gave me permission to use his Turko-CFW V8 as donor-FW...
But, this ROM will NOT become a copy of this one...
It'll only include some features, that you can also find in hero355's CFW ...
Stay curious...!
Taxidriver05...do you have a ETA for this ROM? I'm waiting for it like a baby waits for his chocolate
Currently NOT...
Need a little bit time for creating the ROM...
Currently less time for doing some firmware projects...

Annoying app offering

Hi 2 everyone,
I have Xiaomi MI2S with MoKee ROM and found out that after every install (does NOT matter if its app, game etc.) this weird app-offer comes out at the bottom of the screen:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
...anyone has the idea whats that and how to get rid of it? Any ideas strongly appreciated!
Sincerely, JayM
Mabye is some launcher or some kind of built-in app store you have.
Yep, already tried to change the launcher (GO Launcher) and also tried to freeze some suspicious apps but still NO luck...
Well it's strange, because I had for a long time Mokee Kit Kat (that seems you have) and I never experienced this sort of problem.
Did you remove useless system apps? Mabye you can post your app list to see if could help.
EDIT: from a quick research those pop-ups are releated to some GO app (GO SMS probably), you need to uninstall it and try something else.

Here it is: https://www.google.it/webhp?sourcei...TF-8#q=these apps may suit your taste&es_th=1
Best advise would be to get rid off all go products a d then go through and remove the left over files. They have long been known for things like this and huge security issues
THX 2 both of U guys - will try it for sure - GREAT HELP!

Thank you. Works on my SM-N910G Snapdragon with stock BOF1 deodexed.
Is there any chance to modify this Navigation Bar? Changing or adding buttons perhaps?
Sent from my SM-N910G
Does this also disable the hardware keys? Specially the back and recent keys are annoying for example when you want something in landscape I almost always touch them accidentally.

[Help] A dev who can fix bluetooth on "Umidigi Plus E" ?

Hi to all dev's,
We are a lot who have bought a "Umidigi Plus E". It's a correct phone, but we are facing to a bluetooth issue (unstable). We told the problem a lot of time to Umidigi, but we don't have any update which fix the bluetooth since his release ! Just minor updates. They really don't care about us :-/
There is a dev wo can help us ?
Here's the problem/symptoms :
In a car (for example), we can pair our phone easely. But one or two days later, the phone can't pair again to the bluetooth headset OR the voice don't come from the bluetooth system.
When "connected", we cannot tick "Phone audio" :
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
But there is a temporarly fix. Here's (works only during 2-3 days ...) :
1) Parameter
2) Application
3) Tap on the three dots (right and top the screen)
4) "Show system process" (thing like this)
5) Tap on "Bluetooth share" or "Bluetooth Shared"
6) Tap on "storage"
7) Delete data & clear cache
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
We don't know how to stabilize the bluetooth. We don't have any dev
Someone can help us ?
Here is a link to get the rom of our phone : http://community.umidigi.com/forum-128-1.html
Here is a link to our phone specs : http://www.umidigi.com/page-umi_pluse_specification.html
... and seriously ... don't buy Umidigi. They don't care about us !
Thanks in advance to the guy/girl/team who will help us
I'm having the same problem with the F1
Don't suppose you've managed to find a fix, without having a modified ROM?
Same problem
I too am having this problem on the F1. I've tried everything I can think of, but no luck. I may have to just return the phone. It sounds like a problem on all Umidigi phones.
