It's screen time out if you set it for 1 minute the screen will go of in a minute
I know what screen time out is I'm asking about the auto sleep setting within it. It's the first phone I've seen with auto sleep. Not counting touchwiz smartstay. I'm wondering how it takes effect.

I'm curious to know this too!

I saw someone ask this before, and someone answered it works off the G-sensor, based on their testing. So keep the phone moving, or not on a flat surface, and it stays on longer. If you keep moving the phone, it shouldn't shut off. Place it on a flat horizontal surface, and notice the light dim almost instantly.

I asked the same question a while ago and the answer I ended up with was that
"It uses the gyroscopes to determine if the phone is being held vertical, or laying down horizontal. If it's laying down, the time out should be 15 seconds. If in a vertical position, it should be a minute."
Thanks for the response guys.

Hey, I recently bought my note and I was playing around with the photo editor and noticed that when I use the s pen, I can tell that where the pen is touching and where dot is showing up is not at all accurate. It ends up being approx 2mm right of where the pen touches.
Is there a way to calibrate the pen? Is anyone noticing this on their note?
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA App
Yes, this question has already been asked a thousand times and no, there is no way of calibrating so far, sorry.

I guess we have to wait for the pen sdk then? Thanks for the reply btw. An admin can delete this thread if anything.

I dont have a note but if you turn off and on rotation and turn the phone a few times or something like that it should fix it.

I got my Nexus 7 three days ago. It seems like sometimes when it's charging and I pick it up, the screen turns itself on. But I can't seem to purposely reproduce this behavior and I'm wondering if maybe I'm just hitting the power button without realizing it. Likewise, once or twice it seems to have put itself into sleep when I set it down. Can anybody confirm this behavior?
Mine has done this with me as well. There was one guy who posted that it had happened to him, but it was to do with a magnetic case. I've not got round to getting a case for mine yet, and there have been times where I've picked it up, 100% sure i haven't hit the power button, and the screen has come on....
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD
This has happened with me too, turns out it was coming on when I left it charging on top of a speaker... Sometimes the screen wasn't coming on at all even if I pressed the power button numerous times.

Funny...come to think of it, the auto-off happened when I set it on my iPad, which is in a magnetic case.
P.S. - Am I allowed to say "iPad" in this forum?

Well when my n7 was switching itself on, it was sitting on a pillow on my bed, nowhere near any magnets. And when it happened I manually switched the screen off, put it back down again, and was able to repeat it again and again. So unless my pillows are magnetic...

That's actually a very good idea, something along those lines, I'd need to bore her with a subject that won't immediately let her know that I'm taking the p155, but having just got my n7, I could maybe just start talking to her all the time about it and nothing else lol
Who would have thought you'd even get relationship (avoidance) advice here on XDA

My be your bed company is "magnetic"? kidding!
I got twice this effect when at bed. And I found it perfect to wake the device in the dark because the start button is not so easy to get and very often is opposite to your available finger!
I had that before, but not since I upgraded to 4.2 I think.
It's a really cool feature, I hope Google add it.
I had this happen a few times as well. Try putting your device to sleep and wiggling the USB cable where it plugs into the N7. If you plug the charger in while the screen is off, the screen will turn on. I know mine doesn't have a real solid connection and if I pick it up while it's charging, it will sometimes cause the cable to lose its connection for a second or so and then move back into position, causing the N7 to essentially think you're plugging the charger in. You might see if that's what's happening with yours as well. I figured I was the only one and it wasn't a big deal so I've just been careful about picking it up while charging or transferring data.

When it happened to me there was no cable plugged in, and I was able to switch the screen back off, put it down again, and pick it up and make the screen come on again. Definitely never pressed any buttons or had it near any magnets.
I think it was before I had upgraded though. Some people say this would actually be a nice feature, and until you remember that everywhere you take your n7 away from home its gonna be switching on and of all the time in your pocket/car etc it would be....

I fully agree, but this feature will and must only be for in "home" use. So not active when lock screen is enabled.
When I'm at home is the main time that I do need the screen lock lol, if I'm out it's usually in my pocket.. The auto screen on would be a good feature at home though, I'm just not sure how it could be implemented.
Oh, wait, I just thought of something It's entirely possible right now. I could use my nice new app called Tasker, and set it up to tell the screen to come on when it feels movement. What's more, if I want it to only happen at home, I can tell it to only work when GPS says I'm home, or simpler, tell it to only do it when I'm connected to my home WiFi network. Tasker is a cool app.

Picked up my One on launch day and noticed the power button was not level (as if half of it had been mashed in and didn't sit right). Granted, not a huge deal, the button just has to be pressed harder, however I could see it becoming a problem over the next year or so. Gonna try to get a replacement tomorrow. Just wondering if anyone else had a similar issue?

Mine is the same, and I was in 3 today and their display model was the same so it's not an issue for me, the button still feels very useable
I went and got a replacement today, and the replacement heats up to about 115 degrees within 5-10 minutes of use. Every setting and app the same as on the first. I called the guy at Sprint and he said he'd take a look. I just can't seem to win.

This maybe a silly question.
But my lights for back and home only come on certain tines. Are they not meant to be on all the time?
I can't even replicate what I did to make them turn on.

I have noticed the Note 7 always on is WAYYY brighter than the S7 Edge always on.
Anyway to change that?
What about screen burn in, do we think there will be a problem?
I had the same question. I don't want to turn it off but it's really bright.
Sent from my SM-N930T using Tapatalk
Same here way too bright. I turned it off until there is a fix. Wish we could adjust it to personal preferences.
there's a 70mb international patch that samsung has released with a few bug fixes and improvements. the screen brightness might be part of the improvements. wont know til tmobile decides to push the patch to us. but as far as burn in goes i wouldnt worry about that. if you notice the always on screen moves position up and down your screen. this prevents burn in.

Unless you're using a S View cover, mine doesn't move (not that I've noticed anyway) ... Was a little concerned myself. I have an LG OLED display, the 65" EF9500, I know it's not as prone to burn in as compared to plasma, but the TV will run a screen clean cycle when powered down after every 10 hours of use, or there about... Not sure if the Note does anything behind the scenes to prevent or deal with possible IR ..
Sent from my SM-N930T using Tapatalk
Mine DOES NOT move either.
Also there was an update today in the Galaxy Apps for the always on display. From what I can tell not much of a change
I believe the movement is 1 pixel every 10 minutes, random jump every 60 minutes. Is that not the case anymore?

it does move. and you're probably right about the time of the movement. the ppl that dont see it move are probably expecting it to move within 30s of them looking at it. it takes some time for it to move. over the past 2 hours mine was at the bottom of my screen it is now in the middle of my screen.
