Anyone notice when airplane mode in enabled the S-Pen bluetooth connectivity is turned off.
I was on a plane trip yesterday and trying to skip music tracks while in airplane mode and the s-pen detection was turned off when I enabled airplane mode. However my bluetooth headphones were working fine with airplane mode on.
Not that much of an inconvenience but nevertheless it would be nice to have it working.
Anyone know a workaround?

I'd like to know a workaround as well, been doing some hiking and found out I couldn't use the camera remote feature, of course I turned Bluetooth on even with airplane mode enabled. I wonder if this is a software defect or additional radios are required for the note 9 spen.
it sounds like it is as designed

Make sure Airplane mode or Maximum power saving mode is not enabled. These modes automatically disconnect the S Pen from the phone.

my screen seems to randomly turn itself on and off during calls and I sometimes press a few buttons and even close the call. and it's a bit embarrassing to admit that my phone has a problem. does anyone have a fix for it? I'm currently on jpk
end calls should not happen
the proximity sensor automatically turns off the screen to prevent accidental touch to the buttons
it takes about 1/2 second to react
if you talk normally it should never light up for you to accidentally touch the buttons
but if you keep checking why the screen is on/off on/off
that will drive the screen / sensor crazy
it was like that for me the first day
i was rather annoyed that the screen always turned off, i wanted to disable that feature, but now that i got used to it i find it rather useful to prevent accidental drop calls
personally i browse and write notes a lot during a phone call to look up info and take down customer orders
so having the screen on/off automatically was a pain in the royal highness, but i found a great solution
switch to BT headset whenever i need to check for info and browse on the phone, then it wont go on/off automtically as it's not near my face
thanks for the info!
This is a very common problem caused by positioning sensor overriding proximity sensor when the phone is placed horizontally or close to it. So if you tilt your head during a call the screen will turn on and you could disconnect/place on hold etc. I saw this feature/feature was fixed for other devices by adding an option to disable positioning sensor in calls (changing dialer.apk file), but could not find anything for i9000

Is it possible not to turn screen on when I rise my hand? When I ride bike the watch turns screen on rather frequently and it causes huge battery drain. Of course, I can enable theater mode but the watch stops notify of calls, messages, etc (vibration I mean). Is there any way to disable the gesture and have notifications at the same time (tasker, autowear, ...)?
The option to enable/disable 'Tilt to wake screen' is in the watch's settings in the Android Wear app on your phone.
Wow, I've never seen this option before Thanks!
Hiya!
I like to leave the stamina mode always on, but there's one thing that I miss a lot which is the vibration for notifications. Is there *any* way to enable it with stamina on?
I have a problem with static noise and suspect it is the LCD.
To test this theory, i need an app that will turn off the screen but not put the unit in standby.
Seems all the apps i tested so far, put the unit to sleep i.e. music stops playing in background when screen is off.
I need to switch screen off and not just blacken to test theory.
Any ideas for an app, or script that can do this please?
Hi,
I would like to have something like pocket mode on my phone. Right now when I have it in my pocket, sometimes it wakes and enters emergency mode and when I take my phone out of my pocket, there are random digits typed. Is it possible to have pocket mode from tasker, so when in my pocket, double tap to wake won't work, tap to show ambient display won't work and raise to wake won't work? It would be good if that didn't have any impact (or close to none) on battery and didn't affect usability of these functions after taking out of my pocket.
