The Lolipop upgrade has removed the auto wake feature
I have a cover with magnet and it woke the screen whenever flipped open or even worked taking out my pocket.
WHERE'S IT GONE?

Hi guys,
Just got my case cover for the Nexus 6 from google play.
Nice cover overall, but just discover that when i open the cover the screen turn on, if i put the cover back, screen turn off.
Not so bad, but i really like the save battery of ambiant display, i would have prefer to have ambiant display when i open the cover.
Anyone know if i can force the use of ambiant display or disable the screen on when the cover is open ?
Thank you in advance for your help.

This is normal behaviour when you have a cover with a magnet in it. I'm not aware of any way to circumvent it.
Yep i know. But it will be so much better if it can turn on the ambient display and not the full screen
Damit, just discover that magnetic cover dont work well with the nexus 6.
It seems it's not only the one sell by google play (case mate stand folio) but other case too.
The screen turn off the the cover is flip on the screen, but soon after the screen turn on again, with result of a very fast battery use, 50% in 4 hours.
Guess i'll ask a refound ASAP.
Anyway this thread doesn't have any meaning now, it can be close.
Hi everyone, tonight i left my n6 unplugged, this morning i've checked the battery status and i noticed that my screen on graph tells me that screen keeps turn on and off, but it seems to behave this way only when the flipcover is closed and the screen doesnt actually turn on...can someone tell me why?

Most probably it's the fault of the flip cover which is allowing the proximity sensor to be turned on sometimes. Just check if there is any major gap between the screen and flip give while it's closed
does your flip cover have auto-on? I.e., does it use a magnet to automatically turn on the screen when you open it? that causes my display to periodically turn on and off while the cover is closed. I ended up getting a flip case without auto-on.
Hi guys,
I've noticed that Tap2Wake function is just too sensitive. It doesn't use proximity sensor so my phone can be woken up even in my pocket. When this happen, it does some stupid things like launching walkman etc.
The only way I see to prevent this happening is to set different lock screen type (PIN, password or pattern).
Does anyone have any other ideas or solutions to fix that?
Yeah I just got this phone and was excited to use this feature but also found that it was turning on and activating random applications while in my pocket. I don't like enabling the lock screen so I'll need to come up with another solution. I turned the feature off for now. I'm going to play around with Tasker to see if it can control turning the tap to wake function on and off. If so, I'll have it turn the feature off whenever the phone is turned upside down (which it always is while in my pocket) if that's even possible.
I bought a folio case with magnet. However, when I fold it around the back (flush) the magnet triggers the Memopad's sensor and shuts it off.
I unchecked Settings -> ASUS customize settings -> Enable ASUS cover. The folio no longer triggers standby when closing from the front.
Something strange happens when the cover is wrapped around the back. The act of wrapping around the back does not trigger sleep (on or off). However, when the case is wrapped around the back:
- If the tablet is off, swiping at the lock screen unlocks the tablet, but it immediately turns it off.
- If the tablet is on, doing any action on the touchscreen turns the tablet off, except for . . .
- . . . pressing the home or return icons freezes the tablet until I move the cover.
The 'ASUS cover' toggle appears to be working correctly. The Memopad seems to wig out when a magnet is placed behind it.
Can anyone else reproduce this?
I use a Samsung Galaxy S5 with Android Auto on a Mylnk system, and it works fine, except for this small quirk.
If the phone flip cover is open, everything works fine, and after a while the phone screen turns off, while the car Android Auto screen continues to work.
But if I close the flip cover, then the car Android Auto screen turns black.
Given Android Auto is smart enough not to turn off the car screen when the phone screen goes to sleep, I am suspecting a bug in the interaction between the Android Auto App and the Samsung Flip cover.
Anyone else witness this issue with other flip covers?
Any workaround aside from disabling the flip cover feature (which I Like outside of Android Auto)?
Thanks
