Hey a quick question- I have an AT&T note 3 and the spigen slim armor view case. Whenever i wake the phone with the cover on, it shows the normal lock screen, not the s view. This happens only after the screen has been off for a minute or two. Any help? Running a Note 4 4.4.4 port btw if that helps any. Could it be rom related?

This happened to me too with my Note 3 N9005. The problem is that new firmwares for Samsung devices don't allow cases that aren't original for that phones. You will have to change of case or buy one original if you want that your S-VIEW works again.

Hello all
Today I started experiencing a problem with my SAMSUNG GALAXY S4 GT-I9505.
I must say first that I did not do anything to him today or any other day in the whole month I he is at my reach.
Today when I took the phone from my pocket to see something I saw there's a black screen with time and date and the signs of battery and reception with no availability to do anything with him.
I took off the battery and it came back to normal but then again turned to that screen. I made a factory reset through the settings and it seemed to help for a few hours but then it came back. Now I'm with that black screen and can't do anything.
I must say that sometimes the black screen goes off and my original screen comes back but it comes back.
I disabled all the sensors and the option in Settings which refers to S View Cover (I understood from googling it that this screen shows up when I have S View Cover - which I don't have! )
What should I do? This phone is a new phone - I had it only for a month (and a bit more)!!!
PLEASE HELP ME
I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING TO HIM
Edit: Here's a photo of the screen

Nothing magnetic. It happened when I took it from my pocket and in that pocket I had only my wallet made of leather closed (no coins or credit cards popping out).
Please help!

Stock rom 4.4.2
Hey guys, I've been trying for a while now, and have only found dead ends.
I purchased a Spigen Slim Armor View for my new S5, not realizing that their functionality had been changed since the S4.
Having easily realized that all the 3rd party apps I can find for "fake" S-views are god-awful. I started looking for a solution to bypass the check for an S-view chip, and force S-view mode on bootup. My phone is rooted, and I do have xposed frameworks, but every mod I try just doesn't work. Does anyone have any solutions? I'd rather not have to settle for the awful apps, or have to buy an authentic case/chip to physically mod my case.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated guys!
Tried a couple more scripts and kernels last night... Still no luck.
I'm hoping someone here has a solution!
Sort of in the same situation
I just bought the IC chip from aliexpress, 5$ for 2 and got a screen protector
After installing and inserting a small magnet from the headphones on the lower left of the spigen s-view case, the phone now recognizes this and forces the phone to show the s-view display
the only issue i have now is that the view in the spigen is smaller than the offical samsung s-view case, hence the camera and answering a call is cut off
is there anyway to mod the s-view window on the phone to make it smaller?
more and more often my wife's S4 will turn into a black screen with the time at the top of screen...this will happen at random times she says, checking texts or looking at gallery pic's.
she has a generic phone case with a magnet to close the full cover (not a windowed cover.) BUT, like me, she leaves this full cover open (bent backwards and the magnet holds it that way) ALL of the time. i'm thinking the phone decides to go into Sview mode or something?? is there a way i can turn this feature off, or fix this problem another way??
BTW, she is running Android 4.4.4
thanks for any insight! --- art
bump?
Seems like you should be able to turn it off somehow. However, it might be a software issue in the case a data factory reset should fix it. If it's a hardware issue then I would take it to my provider or Best Buy to look at it.
i removed the case yesterday and it hasn't happened ... yet! hopefully that fixed it. thanks for the reply Stoney!
7 days ago I have purchased this new note 3 N900 , the screen today is acting in a weird manner.
Here is what happened, I switched on the phone and then there was only the wallpaper and a dark triangle on the right side of the screen, I rotated screens but the thing remained the same, that is only the background with a dark triangle on the right side of the screen with a little flicker so I had to restart the phone.
Now it's working fine, please suggest should I get this phone replaced, is this some kind of hardware issue.
Also I had purchased a cover for the phone which was actually very hard to remove and I applied a lot of strength on the right side of the screen to get the cover removed, can that have caused the problem.
Also is there any app which I can use to check is there is a problem with the screen or not.
Thank you for your time, please give your valuable suggestion.
I'm running stock android 5.0 the same software that came out of the box.
The screen roughly looked like the image attached below -
Forgot to mention above that earlier I also had this issue where the all apps button on main screen turned to blue while everything was working fine and won't change to normal so I had to restart the phone again in that situation which did fixed that problem.
Would it be possible for someone to clarify that is this some kind of problem cause due to applying excess pressure as the Urban Armor Case I have purchases was really really hard to remove so I had to apply a lot of strength on the right side of the screen, it was so hard to remove that even the official back cover came off with it, can that have caused the issue or is it just a software problem.
