Hello,
my GF's phone keeps switching to airplane mode when she answers calls. She can talk for 5-25 second and then the phone switches to airplane mode. I allready checked if the sensor that turns the screen of isnt working, but that is not the problem. If i hide the sensor with my finger the screen turns off.
And she cant listen to voice messages through the speaker, in the moment she takes the phone to her ear, the messages stop.
Looks for me like an error with the sensor but as i said, when i hide it with my finger the screen turns off.
Its on Android 4.2.2 and not rooted or has any custom rom.
Maybee anybody had the same issue or an idea what could be the reason.
I thought about installing Viper one but i am not sure if this could fix a sensor error or if it would be the best solution to send it to htc.
I have a GS6 edge, and it has an annoying "feature" - the screen turn on every time I get an SMS, there is a reminder about an event from my calendar.. and every other notification, basically.
I could find a setting "do not display content" under "notifications" in the settings, but now the screen just light up - with no notification on the lock screen.
Does anyone have any idea how to make the screen stay off (and just make the sound \ light up the notification LED)? :crying:
It may be your "Ambient Display" setting. I installed CM13 on my M8 the other day and noticed that every time I would receive a notification my screen would wake up... I searched everywhere on my phone and even set my email app to "no peeking," whatever that is? Anyways, after Googling the mess out of this I found that the issue was the Ambient Display setting which is under Display settings. Simply turn this off and Boom goes the dynamite. My issue has been solved... Maybe you have already figured this out by now as you posted your question months ago but maybe someone else will stumble across this with the same issue and be like.... yassssss
Hi guys, any advice will be helpful.
Last day i was at office and was charging my Huawei watch, later i saw a yellow blink on the screen and when i tried to turn on the screen by taping on the screen or using wrist gesture the screen wont display.
Observations
1. Watch completely works perfect only the display is not showing up when you wake the or want to use the screen.
2. The touch is working. (can select even the screen is fully black and navigate)
3. On the "always on" mode the notifications and the always on display is showing. only the bright display is not working.

I had a similar thing happen when I had a brightness app installed, I think it was Wear Brightness Control: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.edgecontrols.android&hl=en
It took me forever to figure that out and get the app uninstalled, but my watch has been fine ever since. You might check to see if you have the same or a similar app installed on yours.
My LG G5 recently stopped automatically turning the screen off despite the time settings. I first noticed the phone would warm up in my pocket, so I investigated further. Even though I attempted to work-around the issue by disabling lockscreen notifications, the screen will turn itself on whenever I get a notification then never turns off (doesn't even dim itself). First of all, I do not want my screen turning on for notifications, but additionally, I want the screen to timeout on its own. Any suggestions?
Hey everyone!
As the title say i'm facing a issue with my always on display.
I'll try to make it as simple as possible:
When I set the always on display to be always active it works flawlessly.
When I set the always on display to activate on tap (and last for 10 seconds according to the settings) it appears for roughly 3 seconds and then disappears for 3-4 and reappears flickering for 2-3 times sometimes showing the desktop wallpaper between each flicker.
Did anyone experience the same issue?
What I did to try and fix it was:
- tested both on battery and while charging
- factory reseted and then restored backup (which was stupid, that lead me to the second point)
- start in safe mode (to check whether it was an app causing troubles) but no such luck, problem still occurs.
- uninstalled "nice lock" apps
- changed some settings under the always on display tab
- cleared cache of the always on app
What you should know:
- I'm running android 9, not rooted and have nova launcher as default home
- After I factory reseted the phone I wanted to stop always on display from updating to test whether it was a new version issue but I forgot and didn't make it in time so I'm currently running the latest version
Does anyone have any idea as of why it's behaving like this?
edit: just wanna be a little more clear, flickering is not meant like a lightbulb it's more something like it turns off and back on after a delay (I'm sorry english is not my native language I can't really explain it any better)

i also experience the same.
this phone has many strange bugs.
when i restart my A70, tap to show always on display works for me for 2-3 times.
after 2-3 times working correctly, the bug starts.
after i tap the screen, it shows AOD for 2 seconds. then turns the screen off and then at the end of the 10th second, screen just flashes itself for the last time and turns off completely.
i think it is related to the fingerprint scanner.
because after i registered my fingerprints and turned on unlocking the screen by the FP reader, this bug ends.
after i tap the screen it shows both the clock and fingerprint icon at the bottom of the screen.
after 2 seconds fingerprint icon disappears. and the clock is continued to be shown until the end of 10th second.
but there is a minor issue, when the fingerprint icon disappears, the AOD screen brightness changes. dims or brighter slightly.
can you please try tap to show AOD, by enabling the fingerprint unlocking?
samsung ?

Hey! Thanks for the answer, I can confirm we have the exact same issue. I also have the same brightness issue you described
Anyway, I have always used fingerprint unlock though so I don't know what to answer you.. I only recently noticed the weird behavior. I did a couple things to test and I found out that enabling the "fingerprint" icon showing in the always on display seems to "fix" the issue of the flicker but not the one of the brightness change (after enabling it i've yet to see the problem occur), you should try it and let me know if you see any improvement. It's probably on samsung's end though and hopefully we get it fixed with android 10 or earlier
I'll take this chance to ask you another question; two weeks ago I received a software update and ever since that day I noticed my battery to be lasting waaaay less than it used to, did you update your phone as well? Did you notice a battery drain?
I have the issue both of you talking about.
hello, I had this same issue and what I did was turn the phone off, and booting it up while pressing "Volume Up", after entering a black screen with many options, I selected wipe cache. It has worked without a flaw since then. There's lots of bugs with this phone. I recently had a problem where the USB port will detect a device and "plugged and unplugged" it, making my phone unable to dim. Thankfully I was helpful.
