I am Deaf and have this weird issue. If I turn on Vibration for Notifications it works fine in my hand. But when i put it in the Holster and a notification comes in the screen lights up but doesnt Vibrate. I have looked evcerywhere in settings for an option to fix this but can't find it. Does anyone know how to make the phone vibrate when its in the Holster?

hi,
when i make or recive a call the screen locks and cant be torned on back.
the only way to turn the screen back on now is to pull the battery out and then back in.
i tried to do defulat reset for settings, but it didnt work.
can someone please tell me what can i do to solve this promlem?
Is the proximity sensor ok?

how can i check this?
Is it covered up at all? Some cases can cover it, so the screen is always off in a call.
It's the little dark, shiny, oval shape to the left of the earpiece.
is there anyway to lock this phone so when its in your pocket and you're jamming out to some tunes, the screen doesnt turn on or the volume doesnt change? I've had this phone unlock it self and its beyond annoying. Also the screen will be off, phone locked, and if i get an email or text or what ever, the screen comes on every time. It didnt bother me at first but its starting to get to me now.
Tell me about it. My Note 1 pocket dialed 911 recently; I noticed a stern voicemail an hour later telling me if it was a real emergency to dial back. For those who don't know, when you use a PIN lock, an "emergency dial" button shows up, and one swipe and a tap in the right place can dial 911 (the Note 2 / JellyBean helps by not having "911" as a single-tap choice).
Anyway, couple things you can try. The flip screen protector (from Samsung) will prevent inadvertent screen presses while in a pocket. It works very well, though I personally don't really like having to flip open a cover on top of a phone this size.
It might be possible to use another SMS app like Handcent that won't turn the screen on when you get a text, but I haven't verified that. I haven't figured out how to prevent the screen from lighting up when a text comes in using the stock app, but the flip cover would prevent any screen taps from happening when it does.
I tried a proximity lock (turns screen off when prox sensor is activated), which worked, but there is some odd behavior. When you get a text and the screen kicks on, the proximity sensor app doesn't know you want the phone to go back to sleep, so I think it prevents deep sleep after that (battery drain?). And it also interferes with the phone's ability to use the proximity sensor during phone calls, so after the first phone call and subsequent proximity lock, it no longer works at all during calls until the service is restarted. You might experiment with these though. There's one called "ProximityService 2.1" (Google it since it was released in a Droid forum IIRC) and others are available in the market.
No software tips on the volume buttons, but if you get a TPU style case the cutouts will make them less likely to get pressed. I wish they were recessed just a little more or harder to press. I don't like the TPU cases because they add bulk to the phone.
So on my G3, I use an Incipio Dual Pro Shine but when I take it off, the LED goes on. IDK if thats a defect or it does it for a reason, has anyone else seen this?
It does it because of the double tap to turn on screen feature. Notice everytime you double tap the screen to turn the screen on it lights up blue.
I can barely feel this thing vibrating. Even on my desk in front of me it is so soft. There is no notification LED so i'd like this to vibrate harder.
Any idea how i can get that done?

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Root and tweak kernel variables. That's the only way.
Hi
For help notifications, you could use the flash doing a very simple action with "Automate" or similar automation apps.
I really wanna buy this phone but I wanna be sure of 2 things before I do.
Does the AOD turn off with a flip / wallet cover in stock and/or custom ROM's and how bad is the proximity sensor issue during calls I keep reading about?
Prox.sensor lives his live during calls. Flip cover locking apps same. I got angry about it when bought poco f3
In India this device is sold as Mi 11x. I have been using this device for the last 2 months. AOD does not work during calls and does not switch off with flip covers. Proximity sensor is the real pain in the arse on this device. Flip cover provides a cosmetic solution only against accidental button press during calls. Most annoying situation is when u need to hang up the phone and the screen refuses to turn on so that u can press the hang up button.
