Hello guys,
I have bought the new Galaxy Tab A 2019 (SM-T510) with a tablet protection including a magnetic cover. But it seems that this tablet has no sensor to manage the on/off screen when opening or closing the cover... I have tried some apps like Easy Smart Cover and Smart Screen On/Off but none of them works... do you have any solution ? maybe you know a solution ? maybe an app which uses the front camera as sensor ?
Any news here?

HI Guys,
just a short question, i have my S5 placed in a Case wich covers the display completly if closed.
As i know from my new galaxy tab pro and a note 2, normaly if you close the lid the phone locks and turns of the display.
Now this isnt working on my S5. I've checked light and proximity sensor with the Service menu (*#0*#)
Seems to work.
Didn't find anything in the menu?
Am i blind ? or is this feature really missing? Or is something wrong with my phone?
regards
Steven
This requires a magnet.. Maybe the case does not have a magnet. Or is improperly placed for the s5..

Hi guys, I'm new here but i was looking for an answer to a question that i have.
I bought a third party S View cover which resembles the genuine S View cover case. But it lacks the IC chip that would activate the S View mode on my Note 4. I did find out that this fake cover does have the magnet that can work to trigger the auto wake/sleep feature on the phone.
My question is that if there is any way to bypass Samsung's authentication of S View IC chip with/without rooting? I tried using third party apps that uses proximity sensor but they all look ugly and doesnt work nicely. I did some research and found this IC chip that works with third party cover for galaxy S5.

Is there one like this thats compatible with Note 4? Or any way to hack it with/without rooting?
saw it. cheapest solution you can find but guy says not working on note 4. :/
Hi All!
I had recently bought my mother an S4 i9506, and recently she has switched to a flip cover (with a magnet - what I think to have caused the problem)
Now what happens is if anyone's finger or any object for that matter covers any one of the two sensors next to the earpiece (the 2 that are directly next to each other with the right one of bigger size) the screen turns black until the object is taken away.
[EDIT] its the proximity/gesture sensor
Now this is really annoying and internet searching has turned up nothing of use to me, So any help is welcome.
It just renders the phone useless practically as the sensor seems super sensitive and I have no Idea of how to at least switch it off.
Thanks in advance

Not Root
Thanks in advance
Anyone knows app working with custom MM (especially RR 5.7.4), which can be used with Flip Cover "designed by Motorola" and works?
Tried few apps from Play Store (Smart Cover, Smart Screen On/Off Auto, Smart Screen On Off (New)) and nothing works...
I would love feature like this. Any idea?
Sensor is OK in CPU-Z and when calling.
EDIT: IntelliCover vibrates when opening/closing cover so it's OK, but still screen doesn't turn on/off...

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Have you tried Gravity Screen?
No. Tried it now and it's not made for cover, but still it works exactly same as IntelliCover - vibrates when I close the cover when display is off (when on, vibrations are not triggered) and turns on the screen when I open the cover.
It turns off the disolay, but only when proximity is covered AND display is pointing down....
So it too doesn't turn off the display by itself ONLY when I close the cover...
It's better than nothing that it turn screen on, but would prefer something which works both ways.
Had to change working angle and it works
Thanks
The only problem is tat it's to sensitive...

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.
