Hi..
I´m looking for any simple utility to suspend or turn off screen and hear a sound when i put my HD face down. Also, it must exist an exception when phone is active (incoming call) to avoid turn off device and close phone in case my device was facedown in these moment. I´ve installed ChangeScreen but don´t work fine at all (it´s in testing process). Is there any idea for this??
Thanks
Frank
try gyrator.. I've tried it as i wanted the incoming call ring to silent wen i turn the device face down. it is easy with gyrator. also, playing a sound when device is placed face down is also possible. I am not sure about if screen can be turned off or suspended using gyrator..
will try and tell u.

I use it exectly to suspend on face down and reverse portrait. Can't live without it, plus i use the feature to make a sound when the stylus is out because i loose it sometimes.
Now i was testing Mobile Magic but don´t work fine at all in my rom (problem with exceptions and gsensor). Suspend and sounds works ok but...
I´ll try Gyrator. Thanks !

When i'm in the car i want to get my spvM650 automaticly on speaker when i answer calls... is that possible?
...sort of...
I have a prog installed called Teksoft Speakerphone. This allows a button to be allocated to turn the speaker on.
You can even activate it without a call in progress so that it will answer on speaker. I use it all the time in the car.
It also comes with a today screen button type plugin - but as far as I can tell its completely and utterley useless....but the prog itself rules!!!
I have attached the cab - let me know how you get on....I know it works on my Orbit....

thats the only flaw I can find......it turns itself off once you have ended your phone call.
During a call you have to turn it off using the button in call status.
Its good for turning the speaker on - just not for turning it off again....you soon get used to it!!
Any way to stop this.. I used the registry to stop it from waking up due to my magnetic case.. i have the notifications to make a noise and flash the led... i dont want it to come out of standby to tell me about an upcoming appt (the dismiss/snooze notice) cause i keep pocket running apps or pocket dialing my sense 2.5 front shortcuts!
ANY HELP would be greatly appreciated!

Try this: Start > Settings > Sounds & Notifications > Notifications > Event: Reminders > uncheck "Display message on screen."
I hope that solves the problem!
thanks! i will try that and get back to you
UPDATE: damn... this doesnt work... for "reminders" in settings/notifications i only have flash light, play sound, and vibrate selected and the screen/phone wakes up/resumes and if it had been in my pocket or whatever i'd be calling people.. any other ideas?

Sorry about that. I just noticed myself right now that my phone woke up for a reminder.
Hmm... I don't know, but I think you should get a working screenlocker. I use TouchLockPro (now you can use your zoombar as an unlock bar). I set it up so that when the screen wakes, the phone instantly locks.
If you decide to use TouchLockPro, the settings are a little hard to understand (I followed the Settings instructions in the developer's website). If you need help with the settings, or if you want an example of my settings, feel free to PM me.
try this ..
warlock...thanks for that cab.. but it didnt work...at least not for calendar reminders.. i will test it on txt msgs as that would help as well
sumflipnol: thanks.. i guess i will have to look into screen locks.. its just annoying cause im fine with the "screen lock except for power button" behavior of winmo.. but if it could just stay asleep for the reminders (other than the sound/led/vibrate options) it'd be perfect
ill let you know if that locking program works out for me
hold down the end button

I believe you're referring to the default Windows Mobile SmartLock (auto-lock). I have that on my phone, and it's not very reliable. My phone sometimes wakes up on my desk, and I notice that Sense2.5 is active (SmartLock obviously failed to auto-launch the WM screenlock). From my week-long experience with TouchLockPro, the screen locks immediately without that small lag, and it's very consistent.
There must be a way!
I'd like to ressurrect this thread to see if anyone has any further ideas.
I also prefer to just use the power-button method of putting my phone into standby rather than mess around with screen locks or anything.
I've disabled wake-up-on-SMS. But it still wakes up whenever there's a reminder for an appointment.
Surely there's a way to stop this behaviour!....
It's an open question, so far...
As many of you, I would like to disable the device wake up for reminders. Same as you, I just want the sound and / or light notification for them.
I've been searching WEB, all XDA forum and my phone registry but I haven't found anything useful for reminders, just for SMS.
The same issue has been posted in other places (for example, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=615633) but there's no final answer yet.
Definitely, lock screen is not enough, because if the device wakes up and the screen turns on, it can keep on for a long time (caused by the screen being pressed because the phone movement inside the pocket) and battery drains very fast.
Face down silent feature - need to disable it
I've searched the web, asked HTC customer support but i did not find a solution.
The problem is that because of this feature I've been missing some calls because I usually keep my phone in the pocket of my pants.
Anyone else annoyed by this ?
my phone rings face down or face up, maybe im missing the point
see if this helps, try settings - sound & display - Quiet ring on pickup - untick
I believe if you disable the "Quiet phone on pickup" feature the flip to silent feature is also disabled.
Well, I tried calling my number keeping Desire face up and down and it's funny, because facing down my number was unavailable. After turning it up, it was available. Then after reboot it stopped acting weird.
I need to explain better.
Quiet on pick up does not disable this feature.
If my phone is face down on the desk, it rings. [this is ok and expected]
If my phone is face up on the desk, if someone calls i can turn it on it's face it mutes. [this is what i am trying to disable].
Cant see that on my desire .. I'm with Orange UK .. my phone just says , if I move it the volume gets less loud etc nothing about flipping it .
that's something different, but the face down flip is enabled by default and cannot be changed, unfortunately.

Why don't you just.. not flip it? Or do you make it a habit to lay flat on your back and constantly flip on your belly?
Forgive me, but I don't understand how that feature activates while it's in your pocket.
The problem is not laying it face down to begin with. If it's in this position it will ring.
The problem is when it's in my pants pocket and i move or i walk up some stairs.
Hej devs!
you know that are device get silenced during the incoming call, if you turn it face down.
Is there any ways to prevent it?
Im asking cause usually i keep my phone in jeans pocket, and sometimes i miss a calls due to this feature...
thx!

I don't think a mod is required for this.
Doesn't Settings > Sound > Uncheck "Quiet ring on pickup" do this for you?
not exactly
this option gives you a posibility to quiet a ring when your phone make a move during a call(doesnt matter in which direction).
But even if you turn this option off,ring will end if you put your device on a screen
Untick the above option and it should ring with out quiten ring tone. Works with my Desire.
The OP is right: the phone still goes silent when turned face down even with that box unticked.

Hmmmm intresting....as mine doesn't just tested.
Strange....
so, any interesting ideas?
Since proximity sensor on F3 is fairly useless/non stable on calls I compiled the [A11/A12] AOSP dialer with proximity checkbox. Install via Magisk.
Set dialer as default phone app (reboot) and check proximity ON (so proximity doesn't work anymore...)
In call :
you can either use your powerbutton or double tap on statusbar to dim screen.
or you can use a small macro add-on I made - Call_AutoScreen_On-Off_(F3) - which auto dims screen when call is started and auto lights up the screen when call is ended. How to :
install MacroDroid
import the unzipped macro
give permissions where needed (reboot/don't forget to nuke proximity in dialer ofc).
thx @anuppoudel for testing as well
Added A12 AOSP Dialer
Thank you @raystef66 for providing such a useful solution, most needed
Since I got the F3, I've gotten used to just manually locking the screen before I put the phone to my ear. So, what advantage do I get from using your modified app?
Don't get me wrong, I appreciate your work! I'm just curious...

Ok, thanks...
1. The screen is locked with the app, but I have to manually dim the screen by pressing the power button? Hmm...
2. When the call starts I have to switch loudspeaker on and off again before I actually can hear the one who's calling (or the one I am calling resp.) over the earpiece (is there any solution for this bug out there? or has it even been solved and I'm still doing it out of habit? ).
Unfortunately, it seems that this mod would make the whole dumb workaround procedure even more frustrating (for me)

Point of this all is to nuke proximity sensor (more stability during calls) and let the macro do the job of auto dimming the screen when call gets active and waking it up when call's done. No more no less. So no more pressing the powerbutton or whatever.
Even with the macro running during call you can easily dt2w or press power button to wake screen. Dim it again by pressing the powerbutton again (or double tap statusbar). But how many times does that happen? Not much for me.
For you it does apparently because you have to press loudspeaker. Well you can as you did before on the other dialer you had. Only thing now is that proximity is disabled as well. So more stability.
In the past even with just pressing the power button I had wake-ups during calls. Proximity is unstable so therefore diabling it is the logic solution (for me).
As mentioned above, it's up to others to use it or not.
PS : in macro you can easily add some time to it before screen auto-dims so you have time enough to tap your loudspeaker. Or even add a speakerphone task. Up to you.

Unfortunately, the problem with the proximity sensor is extremely unsatisfactory - a feature that always worked reliably since my first smartphone was mightily screwed up by Xiaomi. I guess everyone who makes several calls per day is annoyed by the behavior and is looking for solutions. Therefore, it is of course highly gratifying if among the annoyed users there are also a few developers who can program solutions.
My frustration with the proximity sensor was not meant to blame the dev for not bringing a solution that works for me - the criticism is solely for Xiaomi. As I said, I appreciate the developer's work! Therefore, sorry if my post came across with a bad mood... I'm glad that the workaround app offered by the dev helps many users
@raystef66
Thank you for your answer! Earlier I was still unsure, now I know: the loudspeaker on/off "game" isn't over on my device - I just tested it. For an outgoing call, I have to deactivate the loudspeaker only after the ring tone, otherwise the earpiece remains silent. Unfortunately, this ring tone sometimes starts after 1 second, sometimes after 5 seconds - and sometimes without waiting time the call starts immediately. So, I don't think it's possible to create a universal solution with a macro.
The thing that works for me, on the other hand, is that the phone stays locked until I unlock it (lucky me! ). Initially, this accidently wake-up also happened to me, because I came to the fingerprint sensor with the index finger or thumb - but here I have now also re-educated myself
Anyway, thanks for not resigning yourself to the status quo and continuing to look for solutions!

On previous version call recording didn't work fully. Therefore made a second version which provides call recording as well
Alioth_AOSP_Dialer_Proximity_raystef66_v2
Apologies if this is off topic but this thread will likely attract the right eyes.. Dialing hasnt been my big problem yet..
How do you deal with pocket wake up ?? Face unlock (maybe tap to wake ??) the position of the fingerprint reader mean this thing is constantly awake and pin lock failing in my pockets.. Driving me crazy.
EDIT :::
Testing it (pixel experience plus) my phone never senses, in any orientation.. Others report some form of sensing.
Upright.. hand to phone.. hand over phone.. I am not getting anything.
It wakes on movement.. It wakes to attempt face unlock (I guess).. It wakes on screen touch,, it never overrides that despite there being an option to prevent accidental wake up (which has no noticeable effect). I dont see what combo of settings may be correct here.
Its currently flat out unusable.. Its a mobile phone which you cannot put in your pocket and which wakes as you carry it. People cant be just accepting this...

Can you please compile it for A12 too? Because most of the A12 roms doesn't have call recorder now. But your aosp app works good on A12 but has some minor theme problems.

I second this. I like having call recording when I call automated robot calls than I don't need to pay a attention and if I miss something I can relisten to it without a problem or with headphones if it was to quiet. It also works to set people up but in my state it's illegal to record someone who doesn't know their being recorder. So you would just be getting yourself in trouble to.
