LED view - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Can i activate led view in Standby whithout samsung Case ?
Mod or tool

To what end? I mean, the led case shows info, on the case itself! No case, no info, so, what is exactly your idea?

Ohhh I thought it is displayed on the screen and you see it through the cover. did not know that the led is in the cover.
I have a cover with a window.
is it possible to activate the sview view as before?

Case with magnet cover

Hey guys
Does anybody know if there is a cover out there which has a magnet inside?
So the screen turns off when you close it, and it turns back on when you open the cover?
I just found the official g2 cover, but i dont like the QuickWindow
I also used the app Gravity Screen, but it happens way to often that i turn the screen on by accident :/

Official S-View case with Always-On Display - any issues ?

Hello,
I would like to try an official S-View case (the one with a small window up top, NOT the clear-view case), but I don't understand how it works with the Always-On Display. The Always-On display moves up and down the screen to prevent burn-in, but sometimes it seems to be displayed lower than the S-View window, which would defeat the purpose if the S-View case does not modify its behavior.
Does anyone have this case and used it with the Always-On Display ? Are there any moments when the display text is displayed outside of the S-View window and thus not visible ?
Thanks !
Not using one but plan to get it. I'd imagine always on display will be unavailable with the s-view cover or the clear view cover for that matter.
Always On Display is not available when you use Clear View Cover.
I have the S-View Cover and the Always On Display function does not work with it. I'm thinking about getting the LED flip cover.
Thanks everyone. It seems that many people on other forums are also upset that the always-on display does not work with the case, and not even with the Clear View case ! Another proof (combined with the quite high battery drain and lack of full notification display) that the Always-On Display was an afterthought from Samsung, they didn't plan it from the beginning. Hopefully a software update addresses these issues, until then I can't see the reason to get one of these cases.
I love this case..the led view is hard plastic and this one, all though fake, feels like leather.
No always on, but I don't care. The ability to take pics cover open, closed or folded over is fantastic. Also see all the notifications without opening. Had one on my note 4 and I'll get one on note6 or s8.

[LED view cover] - Does anyone noticed Note 7's cover smarter then the S7's?

I've got the S7 edge and I bought a led view cover. There are a few choices of caller animations/pictures.
But then the Note 7 came out and so the LED cover for it. I saw a test video about it and there is more settings option (what I think a lot of user missed before): you can create a caller picture.
What's more: not just a caller picture, but you got a surface with the dots and you can light them up and after you can use it for any application as an indicator.
So I'm asking wether someone noticed it too because that's a really great feature and because the phone's LED blinker is fully covered we are really need this feature and I think it's just a question of software.

please help!!! My smart cover screen is showing without having the case on.

My smart cover screen is showing without having the case on, which means i cant get into my phone. I open my phone from the power button and shows a black screen with a rectangle shape showing the time and date. In a nutshell its reading that the case is on but it isnt, any suggestions would be very helpful.
Thank You

Strange but nevertheless, you can permanently switch off Smart Cover:
Settings / Smart Assistance / Smart Cover / Off (see attachement)
Btw, one of many small but unnecessary battery eaters (for those, most of us, who don't have Cover case).

Maybe you can trick the phone: make a call to the phone and if it allows you to unlock the screen, open Settings (by putting in-call screen to the background) and permanently disable Smart Cover

Same problem here, did you fix it?
Hello ! Did you fix this issue ? I have exactly the same problem even if I don't have a "smart cover", my phone is in this mode and so the screen is blocked. And as I am on "plane mode", I can't call it and remove or change something. Thanks for your answer !

Flip case that turns the screen on/off?

Has anyone got a flip cover for this phone that turns the screen off when you close it? Various reviews mention this phone has a hall sensor (Eg. nokiamob.net review). I installed a multi-sensor test app and can see a magnetic sensor there that shows changing readings when I waive a magnet over it, but opening or closing the case does not affect the screen. This work for anyone ?

I've been looking into the cases of this phone since i got it on the first day of launch. Sadly to date there is none. Maybe Nokia will release a case that does so and enable thay feature in a future update.
