Hi,i have a lumia 930,but when start calling,screen will autumatically turn off without any touch or get near to face and won't turn on after 10 seconds after endind call.i want to know what the problem is.if the other side dont end call,my screen wont turn on.tnx
My phone's screen died. The backlight to be precise. The touch works fine, and even the screen in fact if I look at it under bright light, shows information. I want to replace it. I went and bought a replacement. Opened up the unibody, unplugged the batter flex and the one below it.
My question is:
Can I just unplug my current screen's flex (display flex, top left corner) and plug in the replacement's flex, and check? Because when I do it, nothing happens. The screen doesn't come on, neither do the capacitive keys (they light up on the current display if connected). The touch works fine though and so do the keys (I can invoke Cortana etc using the search key for example)
I am wondering if the only thing that connects the display unit (touch plus LCD) to the main board is that single flex, or are there other contacts that are used when the phone is completely put together. Because the screens I've tested (several) didn't light up at all, just the touch worked.
This would really help because I could then buy a screen and finally get down to the complete required disassembly (which isn't that simple or easy) and rest assured before doing so that my replacement screen works.
A possible reason that the vendors I went to buy the LCD's from gave me was that this might be a version conflict. Though I feel the hardware for these phones is the same. And the only version conflict I have come across would result in the touch refusing to function. The screen would always work (eg Lumia 620 after Lumia Black update) My phone was bought from Saudi Arabia (EMEA) and I am currently and indefinitely in India where I'm trying to get a replacement LCD that works. This shouldn't be a factor though because my Lumia is the RM-937 (international variant) which is the same one you get here.
Any expert help on this would be really really helpful.
PS: I know I could post this in the Lumia 1520 forum, but I'm posting it here in hopes of getting a quick reply as I am sadly pressed for time with my only phone I use for everything including work, not having a working screen. Cortana is really my assistant as she is the only way I use my phone at the moment.
Since I had a replacement for my bootlooped LG G4 H811. After recieving my refurb device I had this problem with double Tap to Wake and the view Glance feature. What really frustrate me is now it will or will not wake with double taping many times, view glance wont work but what is worst. Since probably the sensor is broken it will wake up randomly just laying on the table and any random touch or swipe on the screen would wake it. So battery usually drain while it will just turn on in my pocket.
I'm soooo sad and gave up after testing I can only just confirm it is a faulty Hardware.
My warranty is out. I really don't want to go through it again.( I might get a more faulty device ).
What i really need help with now is : How to disable all features that has any connection to waking the device or any other action that interacts with the screen while off?
I already have turned off the double tap feature using the quickshortcutmaker but still glance view feature is still on which is probably the reason for it to still wake up on the same conditions mentioned up.
I had tried CM ROMs while it only support double tap to wake disabling it from settings will save it from waking up.
But what I need is to fix the problem while on the stock software. For many reasons like having the LG stock Camera App. and a stable OS.
I have limited knowledge, but ithink i need to change settings in the firmware or maybe the kernel . Maybe using Xposed. but I really have no idea how to use any.
Please someone help me. I will really appreciate it.
Is tap to wake screen missing on Oreo? I don't see it in the normal place in the Display settings.
I think it is just missing from the phone and/or in a different spot.
A review notes that Oreo can come with double tap to wake:
http://www.gsmarena.com/android_80_oreo-review-1653p2.php (scroll to last paragraph)
Sony decided to not implement double tap to wake and sleep since XZs and XZ Premium, and recently released XZ1/XZ1 Compact phones follows that trend.
No idea why, it's such a useful feature.
People who don't like/use it can just not enable it, no need to remove the feature that's been a part of their phones since Z2 or Z3 I believe.
This is one of the best features, coupled with double tap to sleep. Useful when you sit your phone on a desk and you don't want to press the power button.
Shame they don't have it anymore.
I guess it's related to the finger print sensor, but agreed, should let people decide. I turned mine off on my Z3C as it kept going off in my pocket.
Damn, that's garbage. I love tap to wake.
Well whatever isn't on stock, a rom will eventually solve, right? That's why we're here.

I'm genuinely curious, why would the fingerprint sensor be related? Double tap to sleep/wake has always worked flawlessly on my Z5C, and so has the fingerprint sensor.
No idea - but I can't see why else they'd disable it apart from some sort of "user experience" rubbish.
Im probably going to return my XZ1 Compact because this tap to wake was used heavily for me whilst at work where i have gloves on. Being able to tap the screen on my Z5C to see my notifications without having to remove my gloves to use Fingerprint made things so much easier. I know they have glove mode, but i really dont like using it, especially when i have stuff on my gloves i dont want all over the screen.
Well done sony, even android Oreo is meant to include this feature, so not only do they remove a Sony festure its users love, they block it out of Android OS also.
Have you tried contacting Sony Support? There is a possibility that it was an oversight or a bug and they'll fix it.
Any updates on this? Any chance this feature could be re-enabled by the experts on here. This is honestly what's holding me up from buying this phone.
Have you already contacted Sony about this?

There's no way this was an oversight. It must've been a deliberate decision for some reason.

Yes and they say on their website it isn't supported on this phone, which is why I was hoping someone here could change that, just as they have re-enabled the fingerprint sensor in another thread.
So, I was playing with Nova Launcher to have at least the double tap to sleep. It works. But the problem is that when I wake up the xperia, I have to swipe the gesture password, touch id is not enough. Of course, no way I do that every time I unlock the screen! Has anybody found any other solution for that?

go to advanced ---- screen lock method ---- wait time
that solves the problem

OK thank God, that actually solved the problem. Well at least I have double tap to sleep. I only hope the lack of double tap to wake is just a software limit and the device is hardware capable of doing it and we will be able to enable it in the future, maybe with root...
How lucky it worked. if we hope that waking up with two tap is enabled soon, it is very necessary
For those that need a temporary alternative, look up Gravity Screen https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.plexnor.gravityscreenofffree&hl=en and turn off all the features (uncheck boxes or slider to 0) except for "Turn Screen ON by Proximity". This will wake up the phone to lockscreen every time the proximity sensor goes from something nearby to nothing. so you can tap the proximity sensor to wake the phone, or it will wake up by itself when you take out of pocket.
Hi there,
Tap to wake is a neat feature but I find myself waking up my phone too often by mistake, so I tried to figure out a way to get the old double tap to wake back, but couldn't find out how.
I guess it must be implemented into custom kernel ?
Any advice would be appreciated !
Same, I had to turn this off b/c my phone kept waking in my pocket and changing songs.
I noticed too sometimes my phone wakes up in y pocket, coming from OnePlus it surprised me cause I'm used to have pocket mode. Hope there will be a workaround later.
I replaced the Pixel Launcher with Nova Launcher. Light years better. While there is no double tap to wake, you can double tap to lock the screen then just use the fingerprint reader to unlock the screen. Since owning the OG Droid long ago it seems, I have yet to find a home launcher better than Nova. Worth every penny.
Double Tap - Apps on Google Play
Easy to turn on/off screen without power. Not affected to unlock by fingerprint
play.google.com
Works perfectly on Pie.
As for Q...? Give Google time and they will screw up anything and everything.
I use NovaLauncher too and all my devices for years now. I love it.
But that's not what me and OP are complaining about. We want to double-tap the screen while the phone is laying a table and have it wake up to lock screen. Picking it up and using the fingerprint sensor on back doesn't help.
Lift to Wake works, but you have too, duh, lift it to wake it. We want the double tap for our fingers, but not erroneous dbl tap detections when phone is moving around in pocket or in my hand.
I can't tell you how many times music player skipped forward or back b/c or incorrect dbl taps, waking, and then more taps from my pocket contents or whatever.
I'm using OnePlus launcher port as I'm used to it (and I love the gesture to access hidden apps from app drawer, asking for fingerprint).
And I'm happy with it, I use Gravity box so I can turn the screen with double tap on status bar.
For now I disabled tap to wake, and I use tasker to turn on always on when there's an incoming notification, so that I don't have to wake my screen just to check if there's something new.
I'm confident someone will give us a custom kernel allowing double tap to wake someday !
Seems like there's something wrong with proximity sensor, I noticed that after trying to play with proximity sensor in tasker, it always return 5cm.
Updating to February build did not solve the issue, that could be the reason why there's no pocket mode.
Anybody else with this problem ? (There are several apps that can read sensors and check for proximity one.)
Did anyone ever figure this out. I really like the double tap to wake so I just tap my phone while it sits on table to wake. I never had an issues w/tapping to wake before (LG v35, etc) and I now realize why it is a huge problem for myt 4A 5G -- stupid Google make it tap to wake, not double tap. For me, this cause constant waking and then irritating unwanted activity (music changing, podcasts stopping) while my phone is still in my pocket. Arrrrg.

If your phone wakes up in your pocket, you must have a problem with proximity sensor, i had to remove my screen protector because of that, and now, no more accidental wake up while in the pocket (but i still miss the double tap to wake).
