[Q] Galaxy S4 Sleep and Wake function

Hi I am very confused.
I bought 2 different cases for my girls friends Galaxy S4. One is working but does not have the S-window. The other has S-window but does not have sleep and wake function.
My questions is: How does the sleep and wake function been activated on the phone? Is it similar to an iPad where there must be a little magnet on the case to activate the function or is it purely activated by sensors on the Galaxy S4? Or other ways? I noticed the S4 has plenty of new features that uses its internal sensor so I am thinking maybe the sleep and wake function was implemented automatically as long as you get a flip cover case.
Anyone know?

Yes sview is activated by magnet. The sensor is close to the volume down button but more at the back of phone than the side.
You need a reasonably strong magnet, I found that a fridge magnet wasn't strong enough. Need stronger one.
P.s. The title of thread isn't quite right should be more like "how is S-view activated"

[SM-P205] Smart sleep flip cover?

Hey guys,
I recently bought a 2019 galaxy tab A 8.0" with S-Pen.
It's working amazing, especially with the S-Pen.
But I have a little question, does the tablet have a magnetic sleep sensor to use smart flip cover to put the device in sleep mode?
I bought a cover that was supposed to have it. The cover itself is nice, but it doesn't trigger it the screen on/off at all.
So I'm wondering if the device even has the sensor, since I can't find any option anywhere either.
After some info I just found, this function should work with proximity sensor?
I checked, the tab does have a proximity sensor in the top, but I can't find the option anywhere.
And putting my finger on the proximity sensor doesn't seem to do anything.
Edit: seems like the tablet doesn't have proximity sensor, but only light sensor...
So impossible to get a sleep/wake up cover.
That's lame.
