Ever since upgrading to Marshmallow, Gravity Screen is having some problem. On Lollipop, it worked perfectly, but now on MM, there is a slight delay on waking the screen (delay is disabled on settings), also sometimes it doesn't wake up. Is anyone having this problem? And is there a fix?

Hi All,
There is some hardware issue with my S4 that it will wake itself up randomly every few seconds. It has this issue with every touchwiz rom I put on, Kitkat or Lollipop (fresh install so that I know it's not caused by some apps installed later). I'm sure I have tried everything like disabling air gesture, every senor related function that I'm aware of.
I used wakelock trying to track which apps triggered the wake with no luck.
I also tried gravity screen, no luck.
The only fix so far is using a cm rom. I suppose it's because cm rom ignores some sensor info compared to touchwiz. I can stay with cm but I really like the stock camera.
Can anyone cast some light on how to fix this screen wake up issue on touchwiz?
Update: Finally got this fixed. The fix is very specific to this phone. As I mentioned this phone has some issue including home key not working and the random screen wake. After disable home key mapping in Generic.kl and gpio-keys.kl by adding # in front of key 172 Home, screen wont wake up by itself again.

Hi
I've been having the same problems with my phone, I think I've managed to fix the problem,
I went to settings, device, display, then at the bottom turn off 'ambient display'
Problem seems to be gone
My phone screen stopped rotating since yesterday. My firmware was updated to MDB08L and I think that's when I started facing this issue. My screen rotation is on. I checked sensors from multiple apps and seems like my "Y" and "z" axes are stuck at -78.478. I installed asphalt 8 and car keeps turning right. Any suggestions what the issue could be?
Anyone else experiencing issues with the "keep screen turned off" feature after upgrading to nougat? I noticed that after upgrading, this feature stopped working. It was working fine prior to updating to nougat. I'm on Rogers S7 edge.
I've tried factory resetting my phone but the feature is still not working. I've tested the sensor with the test menu and the sensor seems to be working, so it seems like it's a software issue? Any one else experiencing this or know how to fix it?
Thanks
Yes. I too am getting this issue with mine. Brand new... perhaps a couple of weeks old.

I have the same issue. It fixes itself after a restart but after a while the "keep screen turned off" fails again.

Yes, me too. Anyone found a solution to this?
Same problem here. Isn’t there an app or something that will fix this, even if it requires root?
Is this where while on a call, you press the power button and the screen turns back on? If so, I'm getting that too.
Same issue after Nougat on Galaxy S6 Edge. My better half's S7, too. Any news on this?
I also have that issue.
It's a big problem for me because I basically can't use my phone in my car any more.
On outgoing or incoming calls the damn screen turns on and keeps on
and after a short while I accidently press one of the on-screen buttons and my call is aborted or muted.
(I own a Samsung Galaxy S6)
I too have this issue. I am using the lockscreen until Samsung fixes this.
Hi ALL
I noticed that after OREO update when I want to hung up a call I see Notification Bar active (pulled down), so I need to pull it back up to press hung up button. This is really annoying because it happens during 70% of calls.
It looks like proximity sensor does not work correctly and I accidentally touch notification bar with my ear during a call.
I did a Factory Reset, it did not help. I did a downgrade to Android 7.0 and it helped and cured the issue!
Maybe this software glitch is related to GSMarena mentioned proximity sensor issue in their LG V30S review
Have anybody noticed that glitch with G6 and Oreo?
Thank you.

G6, H870, EU version.
I don't have this or any issues with my handheld.
After the update i noticed a problem with priority sensor too.
Sometime it keep turning off my screen when I working with my phone and it will fix when i restart the phone .... , Also I did a factory reset but problem didn't fixed
Same problem for past 2months.?
Infact i noticed sensor was On during the night also when AOD was off!
I have a weird bug the last 2 days, after unlocking the screen randomly the navigation bar controls are unresponsive for 2-3 seconds, I thought it was a bug of ASE6 but I updated to ASE7 yesterday night and it's still occuring.
Am I the only one?
Yeah I have that issue time to time too. I first thought it was because of the screen protector that I didn't peel off the first week I got my device, but apparently that's not the case, especially the bottom right corner of the screen where the default back button is feels unresponsive at times. Switching on and off the screen helps. I don't know if it is a general problem or some sort of a hardware problem.
Btw does ticking the option to increase touch input responsiveness increase battery usage, and should we try that on?
