Strange problem on my new moto x (Android 4.4.4. stock rooted w/ xposed, gravity box, xgels if that matters)...
Incoming calls -
if the phone is NOT in my pocket (or is face up) when the call is received, the screen wakes up and shows the person calling :good:
if the phone IS in my pocket, when the call is received, the phone will wake up once i take it out of my pocket, i can hear it ringing, but it stays on the active display lock screen. If i unlock the active display screen, i can then see the incoming caller ID / caller picture.
Is there any work around? I would expect the screen would always wake up on inbound calls and show me who is calling...
Thanks!
OK - figured it out. If you use gavity box, don't let it control your proximity sensor or at least tell it to ignore it on incoming calls Working properly now!

When I receive a phone call, SMS or MMS the screen switch itself on and that’s not good when the phone is in my pocket. (I'll answer my calls via bluetooth)
Would it be possible to disable screen at least when receiving SMS/MMS?
Thanks.
This would be a good fix.
This is indeed an excellent idea. If someone could somehow develop something that allows the screen to come on to show you what is happening, but the screen stays insensitive to touch, that would save me a lot of headaches.
The "lock screen" feature almost does this, but not quite.
I'd like to third/forth this idea. I often find myself hanging up a call as I pull the phone out of my pocket, or launching random apps when a message arrives. Very irritating!
I would certainly agree to that too. I am forever calling random people while driving because of my phone being on my belt and then recieving an SMS

AFAIK message on screen will only prevent the message itself to be displayed automatically when you receve a message. Your screen will still be switched on and a lot of funny things happen when it's in your pocket.
For those who are frustrated thatBLN don't work with missed call, because switching the screen cancels, with the application of LED Blinker, it works
Only when in driving and Home "talk to me" mode, here's the scenario:
Incoming call and the screen flashes blank to calling card then blank , back and forth while the phone is ringing. the moto voice says "incomin....incoming, call fr....incoming......incoming ca.." while flashing. I also see the mute microphone icon in the status bar flashing on and off at same time. I can touch the center and slide to answer.
This only happens in driving/home Talktome mode while receiving a incoming call.
what is it supposed to do while in driving mode when you get a call?

PROBLEM SOLVED. Seems I removed the app Shush and all is fine
I figured what would interfere with the mute on my phone since it was flashing that icon...removed shush and that was it

I'll be on a call and the other person will suddenly be unable to hear me. This happens with stock and Pure Nexus (running on both elemental and shamu). It doesn't happen regularly. It hasn't happened in weeks, but yesterday it happened twice on one phone call and once on another. I can fix it during the call if I mute and unmute the phone on the display. When the phone mutes itself, the display control doesn't show that mute is active, only I after I press it and "activate" it.
I used to think it might have been my face pressing against the screen, but that can't be it as the screen is off while I'm talking. In order to fix it during a call, I have to turn the screen on first. Has anyone else had this problem?
I had this problem and found call screen lock in the play store (which solved it). It turned out I was somehow tapping mute with my face while on the phone after not tripping the proximity sensor...
It only happened rarely, but you can tell if you might be doing this if your screen occasionally wakes up while on the call without being pulled away from your face (the proximity sensor thinks it is not close to you face intermittently).
I've had this happen with two SMS apps and I want to stop it from happening.
When do not disturb is on, incoming SMS makes my phone vibrate and continues to vibrate no matter what.
Is there a setting that I'm missing that controls this?
Thank you!

Was the screen on, when you got SMS or screen was off and it vibrated? Basically I remember my Pixel 2 some other phones too have/had a setting under do not disturb do this when screen is off and do that when screen is on...check it. Yesterday my DND was enabled and I did receive a call on Whatsapp which rang. Before the call, my screen was still on that is why, it rang.

This happens in the middle of the night when I know my screen should be off. I'm thoroughly perplexed.
