Disable status screen

Hey guys,..
I dont know what its actually called so i dont know how to search for it on the forums.
But you know when your phone is disabled or in lock screen, it can show you this overview of the time and missed calls and messages and battery status for a second?
Is there a setting to disable it?
I think its kinda annoying and it sometimes comes up when i try to unlock the screen which is even more annoying.
Thanks.
You tried "Settings - Lock screen" ?
Yes,.. do you see any setting there that enables this?
Settings.... motion. .... quick glance. . Is that what you mean?
Sent from my Samsung Note II.
Yesss. That was the one. Thanks for that!

[Q] note 4 vibrate when ringing during vibrate mode

Hi guys,
Wondering if you can help. I have a Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and want to enable the "vibrate when ringing" feature when the phones "sound mode" is set to "vibrate" or "silent". But when I activate either of these modes the "vibrate when ringing" tick box is greyed out! It still shows the tick but when I get an incoming call it hums once and that's it! I want it to vibrate properly, like it does when the sound mode is on "Sound". Is there a setting that I am missing, or need to switch on? Surely there must be an option to do so. I mean, isn't that the whole point of setting the phone to vibrate?!?!
Any help would be much appreciated.

How do i make the screen appear on every notification?

Glimpse Notification from Store

Notification problem - no one speaks of it??

Hi guys!
In the past I had an Android watch, a Pebble, several Samsung watches... The best one so far was Android.
Samsung Galaxy watch would be almost perfect if it hadn't this stupid "feature"
In short, the notification dot on the watch is there to notify you when there are unread notifications on the watch, not on your mobile phone. One would say, so what, that's not a problem...
Figure this - if you have the " turn screen on" and "show notification details" options on, then everything you get on your watch gets dismissed immediately! How stupid is that??
Is there a workaround for this, am I the only one bothered by this?
I love how Android wear has this solved. Not only that you have a notification on your watch persistent until you dismissed it on your phone or your watch but also it shows details in a form of cards...
Same settings on my watch. Notifications don't get deleted
Mine do not get deleted too. However, if you clear the notification on your watch it does remove it from your phone too.

They don't get deleted, just the orange dot disappears, leaving me unaware of a new notification...

so easy just go to notification settings in the galaxy watch app and remove the toggle beside the turn on screen option. its useless anyways. if its on, the the orange dot wont appear because it auto dismisses it by design.

I know exactly what you mean. All notifications disappear way too easily! If you accidentally go to far, it's gone. Missed it! FTS! FFS!
I tried for long time to try to find a fix. Samsung has to fix this. NOTHING the user can do!

Yes, it's up to Samsung... but the problem is, nobody talks about it, I tried to Google the problem, haven't found anything...
It's like people don't see it or don't care about it...

But I want to see what's up in a glance when I feel the notification vibration on the watch. If I toggle it off, I will have to wake up the watch screen everytime to see what's going on...

I do like those two options, so I can immediately see the notification on my screen without touching it..... but the only interaction at that point is to scroll up or down to read the notification details or touch the three-dots on the right and select "Clear Notifications" If I clear notification, then that's what happens... notification gone (it would be nice if I could just swipe sideways to clear, because for some notifications I have to then scroll to the bottom of a list of options to select clear notifications). If I don't "Clear Notifications" and ignore it, then the notification disappears from the watch screen, The watch goes back to displaying the watch face, there will NOT be an orange dot on the watch face, but the notification will be in my watch's notifications queue for me to look at later, AND the notification will be on my phone.
Seems like that's about exactly how I want it.
I have "Mute connected phone" set in the Wearable app notifications settings, because if I am wearing my watch, I want the watch to be what notifies me; not my phone. Also, I have the new OneUI on the watch.
Same problem here. I'd like to have notifications to be persistent until I explicitly dismiss them. On my Galaxy watch a notification disappears after I saw it. Is there some setting? Thanks!
So I just got the galaxy watch 5 and had this problem. I found that some how my phone got put in do not disturb. Once I turned that off all my notifications came up.

Pocket Texting/Calls

My Note 10+ (Pie) insists on ignoring my double tap to turn the screen on but comes on all by itself while in my pocket and despite a PIN on the lockscreen it texts and makes calls all by itself.
Honestly, this is the best Samsung can do?
I am very over this phone and it will be my last Samsung I'm afraid.
Anyone have any ideas to stop it texting/calling all by itself?
Thanks in advance.

Hey there make sure your "touch settings" under Display settings are where you like them (or fiddle with them to see if anything changes) and your "lock screen" & "AOD" settings are correct.
My Note10+ (android 10) lives in my pockets and has no "false" calling or texts. I find it's usually "operator error" since Samsung has soooo many options and settings. Also you might like android 10 over 9.... peace and good luck!
Keep the display facing away from your body.
I use Double Tap with normally no issues.
