Is there a mod that will turn off my screen when I close my flip-cover?

I have the Samsung Flip Cover on my GN2. I would like to have the screen turn off whenever I close the cover. Is there a setting or app that does this?
Thanks.

Ah just found this. Will see if it works

** Of the Market Apps available, Screen Standby seems to work the best for me.

I've been using Intellicover for this very purpose and it works great. Once you have it set up. The whole idea is annoying for when you accidentally slide over the proximity sensor and your screen goes dark.
But on the plus side, I can now "magically" turn my phone on by waving my hand over it!

Yeah it can be a pain in the butt, especially when writing notes and you keep turning the screen off. I eventually decided to just push the power button before I close the front cover.

I found "case sensor for tablets" in play when I had my tab. It should work. It might also be paid? Cool thing about it was you can set a timer so it turns off say 3 seconds after closed vs if you accidentally cover it.

I use "proximity screen off" it works great and has lots of options, Like delay so you won't accidently turn off. And an excluded apps list so you can turn it off in certain apps only.there is a Free version too. I donated its a great app.

Voice Search when the phone is sleeping

Hello folks,
There's a way to bring up voice search when the screen is off. Anyone know what is it?
I've done it a few times accidentally. If the screen is off but unlocked, it brings up the homescreen too.
Drawing a circle in the middle of the screen with your finger?

Make the screen turn off when charging AUTOMATICALLY?

I don't like how the screen stays on while charging, I know theater mode can turn it off but I have to get into theater mode every night and I know there is a trick with ambient display from the app but this also takes time. Is there a way to just have the watch turn off the screen ALWAYS when charging without my asking it to?

Get an app called slumber. It does what you're looking for.

Actually slumber didn't work very well for me buy I ended up finding a thing online saying to go into developer options and change the setting, THAT worked wonders

I confirm that setting it "backwards" from what you expect does what you want. Someone's boolean logic was off when they programmed that setting.

This worked for me too. Setting is reversed.
Once on charge, I get the charging screen for about 15 seconds then it turns off and stays off! Perfect!

i can confirm that the setting is reversed
however, this feature isn't all that reliable (the screen doesn't always turn off)

You gotta dock with the screen on. 90% off the time it works every time

Phone does not respond

So, I was using my phone at night time when I discovered something really weird. If you hold the top and bottom of the phone (I'm doing this with one hand), double tap to wake does not work. Also, if you use the power button, it turns the screen on and quickly off.
Can anyone else replicate this? Try to hold the phone with one hand. Your fingers should by at the top and bottom of the phone.

It's cause your proximity sensor is covered I believe. So it thinks its in your pocket or something

Ah, yes. So it's a feature and not a flaw. Cool.

+1. But it did catch me by surprise recently, because I was holding the phone funny, and had my hand in front of the proximity sensor.

The screen uses the proximity sensor determine if its in your pocket and prevents accidental double taps. It makes the phone wonky in a dark environment but you can get it to come on still.

Stop auto screen wake?

Can't seem to figure it out. Sometimes when I pick up the phone the screen automatically turns on to a black screen with htc lock screen widget (not the one wen you manually wake the phone) and it bothers me. Where can I go to to disable this?
Thanks

what ROM, sounds like you need to disable "Ambient Display" MOD.

It was ambient display. Thanks
