Hello all,
My screenshot gesture is not working. No matter how many times I knock against my phone screen, it doesn't take any screen shots.
I've tried disabling it and enable it again but it doesn't work. Restarted my phone also doesn't work.
Do anyone have any idea how to resolve issue?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Knock louder? Maybe they're out the back
Personally speaking, this knock things was some of the first I disabled in this phone... There is a pretty useful button in notifications shade, or you can use volume down and power.
if you have tempered glass installed, make sure it has no airlift inside, that will be the cause

I have the same issue. Not even one knuckle gesture is working. Does anyone have any solution to solve this?

Hi!
I have been trying a couple of locksreens, but somehow I realized, I don't need them at all, when I turn on my phone, I want full functionality, not just a lockscreen.
So I found "Nolock" on the market, which is almost perfect, only problem is that it unlocks with hardware buttons as well. Perfect solution would be to only unlock with a tap on the turned off screen, which cannot be delivered in any other way but your finger(e.g: in your pocket it shouldn't work, thanks to the capacitive touchscreen), and hardware buttons wouldn't react.
Is it possible somehow?
I can't belive nobody is interested!
Bump!
you will need a willing developer to use the source code from NoLock then add the features you want to it
i'm using NoLock as well, it works perfect the way it is
i want to be able to read my stuff as soon as i wake up the phone
Well, no lock developer tells it's not possible to disable volume buttons. I wonder if this problem could be solved at all.
Does it not pushed on in your pocket? This is my only fear about this app.
nope, not at all, never had it turn on, on its own

Thanks, so I give it a try!
I have 2 potentially related questions about launching the Moto Camera app. After the Lollipop update, I haven't been able to use the twist/shake motion to launch the camera unless the phone is unlocked, and the screen is on. So if my screen is dark, or sitting on the lock screen, twisting my phone does nothing, except make me look stupid. Is anyone else experiencing this? Is there any way to get this feature back?
Potentially related, the little camera icon in the bottom right of the lock screen has also disappeared. Other posts about other phones say this is related to the quick start settings in the camera app. In the Moto Camera app, the only option is the twist quick start on/off setting, nothing about the lock screen. Does anyone have any suggestions about this?
I'm having several other Lollipop related issues, so I may just reset my phone, and hope it fixes it... :fingers-crossed:
Replying to my own thread, in case anyone else has the problem. I wound up doing the reset, and it fixed both issues. Nothing else I tried worked.
Hi guys
Ambient display used to work for me and now seems to not ever show up.
I have a protector on the screen but it has a full cut away by the proximity sensor and so I dont think that is an issue. Also checked a sensor app and they are all working
I installed a notification app called edge colour notifications which I then removed. Issue seems to be timed with that but not sure.
Any ideas how to possibly get it working again?
Not rooted
Thanks

Since you're stock, you're kind of limited. Boot to recovery, select wipe cache, reboot.
Clearing cache didn't work but I think I figured it out.
I'm using a app called Automateit which runs phone actions off triggers. I turned it off within its settings and now ambient seems to work. Tested it twice now turning the app service on and off and seems to work. Hopefully that's sorted.
Have another strange issue as well where if I have screen lock enabled and reboot the phone, when it reaches the lock screen it goes into a weird loop on the lock screen and requires rebooting as you can't unlock. Have to reboot many times before it will let you in without this loop. Disabling the lock screen seems to stop this. Anyone else had this?
If my phone is sitting on the desk and I pick it up to unlock, the fingerprint sensor will only detect my finger on the second press. Once I've got it in my hand and lock it, it will unlock every time. But if I put it back down and pick it up, it will only work on the second press. It happens every time.
Anyone else found this?
I tested few times but I couldn't reproduce your finding.
Maybe you have activated some of the movement control settings, on my phone I don't have any.

I haven't enabled anything as far as I know. I turn most things off I don't need, especially gesture related as I never use any of it. Perhaps it's faulty somehow. I guess now's a good time to get it replaced due to the hulkified display.
Strange thing is happening recent to me...
Namely, while using headphones while talking on the phone, the unit gets unlocked while in pocket and problems arise with spontaneous keys getting activated.
If even cannot be explicitly locked by pressing the power button.
Have not found a solution to this problem, and it's strange why the proximity sensor does not work in pocket.
Cannot remember whether this was previously, or is it since last ROM upgrade.
Anyone having same problem?

Yep I have the same thing... Today my pocket took 9599295 pictures and movies.. also when I'm a bit sweat my pocket dial random numbers. I've noticed that when screen is touched and disnt recognize fingerprint then whole lockscreen shows up and its easy way to random open dial or camera... Its rly anoying, because I dont want to hide phone screen outside of the skin. (Its easier to break screen if I hit something with my leg.)
Dunno why it doesnt use proximity sensor to recognize that phone is in the pocket like every other brand... :/
Do you have the double tap to wake up activated?
I had this problem a while ago and it was the double tap that played all kinds of tricks calling emergency and taking pictures in my pocket! Disable double tap to wake up screen and the problem goes away.
Disable the fingerprint icon on when the screen if off.

Tried everything but the problem is eventually still there. Actually I've found a bug, namely the display will wake up once touched several times near the center of the fingerprint reader. Try it yourself.
Not nice - cannot avoid to happen it sometimes even if all options are disabled.

I didn't have this problem. If I try now and touch the part with the scanner, doesn’t have to be just the centre of the scanner, rapidly around ten times the lock screen will turn on, but nothing happens when I touch the shortcuts. Perhaps they are disabled, so the only thing that happens if the scanner is touched again is that the numpad to unlock with pin appears.
This is not good as it may severely affect battery life if it happens a lot. This clearly must be a bug!

Even worse, since it is happening all the time while on a call via BT and my phone is in the pocket. I am now thinking about to switch over to my old MI8...
Cannot understand why the keyboard is not disabled in the pocket. Seems so easy to do it but it's as it seems on.

My only solution was to buy a flip case. At first, I disabled the fingerprint reader by removing all fingerprints and setting up face recognition, but this didn’t fix the problem you are talking about. I don’t really like flip cases, but the Nillkin QIN Smartcase is rather good.
So now I ‘m eagerly awaiting a fix from Xiaomi so I can strip the Mi9 again!

Where can the fingerprint icon be disabled? Thank's.

Disabling the fingerprint icon has no effect on the problem we are talking about here. The only way to make the problem go away is to remove all the stored fingerprints thus disabling the use of fingerprints all together. This will shut off the fingerprint sensor doing away with this problem in a crude way.
If you really are looking for a setting, please use the search function at the top of the settings.
