[Q] Disable Touch To Wake - Wear OS Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there a way to disable touch to wake on my LG G Watch R?
I like to cross my arms and when wearing a t-shirt it constantly wakes the screen.
I want to avoid Theatre Mode as I want to be able to glance at the screen and see the time.
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

I am also searching for this:good:

I've been looking everywhere for a solution to this. I hasn't even considered it as an issue, but just a couple of days is enough to make me realise this is a requirement. I can't believe it didn't come up in development! Aside from your own accidental touches, there's also the issue of inquisitive fingers from children touching that nice shiny screen... Tapping the side button to wake the screen would be perfect (whilst retaining the monochrome screen and notifications).

Cinema mode is really dumb. Just very poorly thought out. There has got to be a way to disable touch to wake. Or even enable vibrating notifications in cinema mode.

Yes there is a way
First you have to install twrp on your watch. Because you need the acces to some files. When you have installed, start in recovery mode, and go to mount and press system. Connect your watch to your computer and open adb,
adb root
adb push /system/usr/idc/sec_touchscreen.idc <choose where you want to have the file in your pc>
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Make a copy of the file, and open it with notepad++ or other file editor. YOU will se a think like this

So remove the part of ( touch.wake = 1 ) and save (make first a copy of the file), Go to adb
adb pull <where you have the file> /system/usr/idc/
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Restat the watch and you will se that the screen is not goin to turn off, pressing the button of your watch. Restart other time the watch and go to recovery.
With the copy of the file, mount other time system on twrp and go to adb
adb pull <where you have the copy> /system/usr/idc/

Restart the watch other time. This work for my, but i am using an alpha for gear 2 neo with android, so probably this might be a bug.

Yep you can use it to wake up the device. But as I say, make a backup because this happen with my alpha of the gear 2 neo, so probably this is not going to work with other devices. Just in case xD

Works for me on LG G Watch R
The file name is different "synaptics_rmi4_i2c.idc"
Same edit, copied to sdcard and moved in recovery to /system/usr/idc/ as mentioned above.
I have swipe menu still available and I can swipe down for the quick toggles.
Button is used to wake (and I use screen always on)
Going to be interesting how this performs in the shower and in general. Thanks to the suggestion posted.

Any update on this after using it for a while? Looking to apply this to my LG G watch R running the Urbane port.

Ok well i tried it any ways and i still have the problem when my arms are crossed my arm starts doing things on my watch...

Starting from version 1.6 this app supports wake on touch changing - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.sssemil.advancedsettings (here is apk - View attachment AdvancedSettings-v1.6-11.apk)

I downloaded the advanced settings app tried the disable touch wake... it doesn't wake but you can still scroll notifications and long press to change the face.
Any chance of completely turning off the touch screen while in sleep...

I tried the Advanced Settings app on my LG Watch Urbane 2nd Edition with Android 6.0.1, which is not rooted. It has an option for "Touch to wake screen" that I tried to set to "off"; however, when I go back to look at it, it is always set to "on". Do I need to root to have this stay, or is the app just not compatible with 6.0.1?
Update... just answered my own question. It appears you need to be rooted to do this.

Yep, it works on Marshmallow 6.0.1 when Rooted. Just tested it on my Huawei Watch.

..

I installed "Showear". You can set a simple touch pattern to unlock the watch. Crossing your arms will no longer trigger any action on your watch (except making the screen on).

..

Hi m8. I've done this on my LG urbane and works just fine ty a lot... but i modified a little your steps...
1) My lg urbane is rooted
2) I went to the ADB folder in my PC (using windows explorer) then using shift+right click i select "open command window here"
3) in this command window i did:
adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery (starts twrp)
in the TWRP:
Go to "Mount"
tick the "system" box
In the command window :
adb pull /system/usr/idc/synaptics_rmi4_i2c.idc (Dont need to select the folder, will appear in the ADB folder used to open the command window)***
*** When i tried to write the destination folder have not worked so i strongly advise not to fill this part, the command in the beginning is PULL not PUSH to take from the device and the file to be taken from the device had a different name as someone have stated before ***
4) In the notepad i did
I opened the file with the notepad and edit "touch.wake = 1" to "touch.wake = 0" (I did not delete this part just change the value)
5) in the command window:
adb pull <where you have the file> /system/usr/idc/
6) Reset my phone and works great!

[Q] Accidentally bought a demo unit, any way to fix it?

I bought the NST online from a forum and the punk sent me a demo unit. It just scrolls through the various promotional screens. I've tried doing the software update and factory reset but neither of them work. Is there any way I can "unlock" everything?

Try this:
1. turn it off completely
2. press at the same time the power button (back side) and the two lower side buttons (bottom left and bottom right page)
3. it should start the recovery and restore your device to stock
Link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137967
Let us know if it works.
hi,
now i don't have the Nook available (i'm at office), but yesterday i was playing with ADB and having a look at nook system folders; i remember seeing a property file in which there is a property like demoMode=enable/disable or something like that (i'm not sure, but if i remember well this file should be in the same folder where also other device specific properties like serial number, mac address, etc.. are stored).
Until reading your message i didn't even know such a mode existed. But now i think that maybe it could be possible to edit that file and enable the "regular" mode on your Nook.
Of course, even if that is possible, you would need to get root and ADB access to to that, and there is the risk of bricking the unit (even though if you can create a backup image to be on the safe side).
When i'll be back home, i will try to find further info about the above mentioned file.
Regards
hi,
i don't know if you already solved, in any case i had a better look at the system folders of Nook, and it seems to me that the Demo Mode is managed by a dedicated application (/system/app/DemoMode.apk). Baksmaling the source code of this app, it seems that it is activated on any Nook unit after boot, but in case the value of setting "demo_mode" is not set to "on", it just exits without doing anything; on contrary, the demo mode is activated (i.e. the continuous loop through a set of images).
So, to get rid of demo mode is activated, you could launch a script to change the relevant value of the setting "demo_mode", to set it to "off"; and then reboot the Nook:
Code:
echo *************************
echo * Setting Demo-Mode off *
echo *************************
adb shell mount -o rw,remount -t ext2 /dev/block/mmcblk0p5 /system
adb pull /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db settings.db
sqlite3 settings.db "update secure set value='off' where name='demo_mode';"
adb push settings.db /data/data/com.android.providers.settings/databases/settings.db
del settings.db
Of course, to be able to launch it, you need to have your Nook already rooted, so that ADB is enabled.
The script is inspired from similar scripts present in the batch file "xe-autoroot.bat" from user xboxexpert of this forum. Therefore, in case you still don't have rooted your Nook, i suggest you to use its script to get it (link to the thread). In this case, you can easily launch the script to disable demo mode from the same folder where you have xe-autoroot.bat, since yu already have all the needed software (sqlite3).
Another possible solution could be just to remove DemoMode.apk from /system/app folder (but i'm not 100% sure this would have side effect).
In any case, not having a demo mode Nook unit, i cannot be sure these methods would work.
Hope this help
That doesn't work
When I have tried to root it I can't because I can not get to the menu to setup the wifi it won't let me get away from the screen saver my mom ordered one of these off ebay for like $40
Figured it out
If it is on an older version you can just drop the official firmware on your nook let it update and it worked like a charm

Is it possible to deinstall the Lockscreen on HD 10?

So the Lockscreen on my new HD 10 is pretty garbage, so far I've managed to get rid of the ads, but I can't change the Lockscreen wallpaper and I don't get any preview of a notification (e.g. the mail subject etc.)
Is there a workaround for those problems? Because simply isntalling a new lockscreen app, just makes me unlock my tablet twice, which isn't ideal.
Did you manually disable com.amazon.kindle.kso (special offers/lockscreen ads) over ADB in fire os 5.4.0.0 or lower using the method DragonFire1024 posted? If so, then yes, I found a fix that allows you to see notifications on the lockscreen without swiping down, more like the stock Android 5.x lockscreen.

I thought Amazon broke the ability to disable apps over ADB with the release of 5.4.0.1. Did that not affect the new 2017 HD 10?

Well, I don't know if this will work with your exact tablet, but try this:
1. If you haven't already, get the Google Play store/services on your tablet
2. Download this app without the quotes: "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=by4a.setedit22&hl=en"
3. Follow on-screen instructions to grant tablet permission to edit secure settings (worked on 2 devices on 5.6)
BE CAREFUL WHAT YOU EDIT. If you change the wrong settings, your tablet can and probably bootloop or get bricked.
4. Go to the "secure" tab, scroll down to "limit_ad_tracking" and change value to 1
5. Go to "global" tab, scroll down to "LOCKSCREEN_AD_ENABLED" and change value to 0. Immediately reboot your device.
This was tested and worked on two HD 8 tablets on 5.6, with special offers manually disabled on 5.4. Since Amazon still thinks you are subscribed to special offers (ads), the notifications are hidden. This workaround actually makes the ads gone (hopefully), so the notifications will appear as soon as you turn on the screen, without a swipe down gesture.
Open up command prompt. Type in "adb shell", Then type in "su"
Then copy this into command prompt.
sqlite3 /data/system/locksettings.db "UPDATE locksettings SET value = '1' WHERE name = 'lockscreen.disabled'"
You will not get a confirmation, now type "exit", then type "reboot".
Let the device reboot and enjoy! Now install a new lockscreen.
Want it back?
sqlite3 /data/system/locksettings.db "UPDATE locksettings SET value = '0' WHERE name = 'lockscreen.disabled'"

Personally, I'd suggest just rooting it and disabling it. I did it a few months ago on my Dad's HD10 by following one of the guides here- I just can't remember which one, but it was simple. I also installed Gravity Screen Pro since I have his set up more like a laptop. The screen turns on/off when opened/ closed without ever having to see a lock screen. I might stop by my parents today (depending on the weather) and if i do, I'll try to trace my steps and link the guide I followed

I love all your posts- it's your guide I followed to disable the lockscreen. Unfortunately, Xposed is a bit much for a "noob" like me. I attempted to install it and got caught in a bootloop and had to do a factory reset. Considering what my dad uses it for, the negatives far outway the positives for me to bother with Xposed ever again

Android 11- OneUI 3.0 (Beta 1,2 & 3) - Manual Update/SideLoad (N986U & N986U1) - [Guide]

********** ANNOUNCEMENT - Beta Enrollment without Banner (OPEN NOW - Nov 16,17) - Read More Here​
INTRODUCTION - Hello all. Now Samsung wants us to go to Members app and keep looking for banner to sign up for Android 11, One UI 3 Beta . It went live October 27th, 10:20 PM EST, As fate would have it, i went to sleep early, i missed it and the banner refused to show up for me in the morning. Download was only showing up for people with unlocked variants on ATID firmware.
DISCLAIMER / NOTICE - Flashing is always risky. I am not responsible for anything that may happen to your device including but not limited to it turning against you, making you its slave and sucking you into the Matrix.
This post is a collection of wisdom, research and hard work of many people over many years across many forums and not just XDA. I will try to credit and link to their original posts.
TIP -Keep in Notice -This SHALL NOT Factory Reset Your Device or Format Data, it is still a good idea to Take Back Up - Just a Suggestion - Always have a latest Back Up
******** UPDATE - It seems ATT devices are getting wiped now if its CSC or the Sim remains to be tested.
i don't have ATT hence cant verify but in case you have an Unlocked device (N986U1) with ATT sim, then, removing sim and Changing the CSC to XAA/XAA/XAA before sideloading Beta is advisable.​
PROBLEM STATEMENT - Missed the One UI 3.0, Android 11, Beta Sign up Banner in Members app or got the banner but didn't get the download and I really want it NOW.
Not sure if you want it now? - Find the BETA CHANGELOG HERE
GRAB YOURSELF A COFFEE / DRINK, because depending on where you at and how fast you/your internet speeds/your Machine is this may take anywhere between 7 to 45 Mins​SOLUTION -
1. Pre-Requisites - Make sure Following Conditions are met before you start
You need a PC/Laptop along with your phone and USB Cable.
You need ADB installed, you can use ADB on Linux too - NOTE If your ADB Tools are not working, download my ADB Folder called platform-tools. Then extract it somewhere easy to remember/ find, like desktop
Remember the Location of the folder where you have ADB installed / Location of platform-tools- This is the location containing adb.exe file.
You may or may not need ADB/USB Drivers if any errors in ADB please Download Drivers from here and Install on your PC.
This following one step is relevant Only for flashing Beta 1
Use Odin to Flash Unlocked (SM-N986U1) ATID Firmware if you are not on that. Refer this thread to get your Firmware.
For changing Firmware from N986U to N986U1 and / or GUIDE TO FLASHING USING ODIN Refer This thread
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
2. Now Download the relevant Beta File that you intend to flash - note that to Sideload Beta 2 you need to be on Beta 1 first. Mandotory Sequence = Beta 1>>Beta 2>>Beta 3 There is no skipping versions possible here.
BETA 1 (ZTGJ) Get the Beta1.zip file from here Thanks to @thatotherguy.. for the original zip.
BETA 2 (ZTK1) Get the Beta2.zip file from here
BETA 3 (ZTK9) Get the Beta3.zip file from here
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
*************** Apply Update from SD card failed for me (Feel free to try that ) but here we will be using ADB Sideload Feature in Stock Recovery*************​
HOW TO - Using ADB Sideload - Windows -The Process is Similar for Linux too
1. Copy the downloaded zip file to the ADB Folder (From Pre-Requisite step). ADB Folder is the folder containing ADB.exe it might be named differently for you (The one i have posted is called platform-tools)
2. Open Command Prompt Window as Admin.
3. Type in
Code:
cd Copy-paste the location of your ADB folder here
4. Connect the phone to the PC using USB Cable and Unlock it. Go to Developer Options and Switch on USB Debugging.
To turn on developer options go to Settings>>About Phone>>Software Information>> Then tap the build number 7 times - Developer options will appear at the bottom of Settings Menu
5. On your PC Type in Command Prompt
Code:
adb devices
6. Give Permission that appears on your phone and PC - I check the box Always Allow, you should do the same.
7. Now type the following and the phone will reboot to recovery.
Code:
adb reboot recovery
8. Once you see recovery on your phone Use Volume Keys to scroll down to Apply Update from ADB and press Power Button.
9. Now on your PC, Type the following in Command Prompt; this is just to be sure, it should show the device name with Sideload next to it.
Code:
adb devices
10. Type
Code:
adb sideload Beta1.zip
For Beta 2 use adb sideload beta2.zip Similarly For Beta 3 use adb sideload beta3.zip. Use whatever you have named the zip file. Most people use update.zip. The commands here are for the attached files in this post and their naming convention.
11. Wait for it to finish and Done

I flashed on an Unlocked one so there is no way for me to tell if this can be flashed on N986U since so many people have flashed Unlocked firmware on the U devices using Odin (One confirmed guy flashed unlocked firmware on Verizon locked device and got the Beta banner) hence i think this will work for all Snapdragon devices. Give it a try and see. Just that before you try this make sure you are on ATID firmware.

Too early in the morning to go out and test that. This is Beta and i have already encountered some bugs. So you have to be up for that.
Good Lock wont work, gesture navigation is buggy, you can not even apply wallpapers from the Galaxy Themes app.
Wallpaper Service on the other hand is greatly improved. Fingerprint sensor is much faster.

My friend there are so many reasons why that error can happen. Sometimes you might have to change the ADB version. I am attaching the platform-tools i used. Extract this zip inside folder on desktop and try. If that doesnt work you might need to update ADb/Samsung drivers. Let us know if this works.

Yes it did, running 3.0 beta now!
warriorvibhu said:
I flashed on an Unlocked one so there is no way for me to tell if this can be flashed on N986U since so many people have flashed Unlocked firmware on the U devices using Odin (One confirmed guy flashed unlocked firmware on Verizon locked device and got the Beta banner) hence i think this will work for all Snapdragon devices. Give it a try and see. Just that before you try this make sure you are on ATID firmware.

I'm on n9860 which is a snapdragon. I'm not sure if it's the same. Anyone want to try?

On my phone, it shows "Verifying updte package..."
On the adb, it shows serving update.zip 16%.
It has been there for at least 20 minutes... Do I need to cancel and restart?
I used the uploaded adb and the first link for update.zip.

Your ADB is fine dont change that. For firmware you can try using the second link from google drive. do you meet the criteria Unlocked and on ATID ?

[GUIDE] HavocOS 4.1 With GApps and Root (magisk)

I got bored so I made a HavocOS guide. Enjoy!
I am not responsible for any bad things happening to your device/angry parents because YOU messed your phone up. If it somehow broke after you did this, it's not my problem.
oh yea also I didnt make the OS. this is just a guide.
Downloads in video description.
I wanted to make this quick and simple so here's a video:
----------------------------------------------------------
Written guide:
-
Pt. 0: quick prerequisites that i forgor to write before
-
consider reading through the guide before you do it
make sure oem unlocking is enabled on your phone. if you dont know how to do that uhh here's how:
1. go to settings
2. scroll down to about
3. tap the build number until it asks for your screen lock
4. go to system
5. go to developer options
6. enable oem unlocking.
7. if its grayed out its because your phone is cringe, sorry.
-
Pt. 1: Downloads
-
Download all of these files
Google USB driver Extract with 7z or WinRar.
Platform Tools Click "Download for Windows" and extract with 7z or WinRar.
Stock Firmware Extract with 7z or WinRar.
TWRP/Kernel Don't extract this.
HavocOS Don't extract this.
-
Pt. 2: Drivers
-
How to install Android drivers:
1. Put your phone in fastboot mode (turn off your phone and turn it back on with power button and vol down.)
2. Open Device Manager on your PC.
3. Click on the dropdown for "Other Devices"
4. Find "Android"
5. Double click on "Android"
6. Click on "Update Driver"
7. Click on "Browse my computer for drivers"
8. Click on "Let me pick from a list of available drivers on my computer"
9. Double click on "Show all devices"
10. Click on "Have Disk"
11. Click on "Browse"
12. Find the usb_driver folder that you extracted earlier and in that folder, select android_winusb.inf and hit "Open"
13. Select "Android Bootloader Interface" and it "Next"
14. If there are any warnings, just press "Yes"
Drivers have been installed.
-
Pt. 3: Installing command line tools
-
How to install platform-tools systemwide.
1. Find your platform-tools folder and move it to somewhere where it can stay there forever, E.g. the root folder in your C drive (C:\). I don't recommend putting it on your desktop because that will add useless clutter.
2. Go to your start menu and look up "Environment Variables"
3. Click on "Environment Variables"
4. Scroll down on the bottom; "System Variables" section, find "Path", and double click on it
5. Click on "New"
6. Click on "Browse"
7. Navigate to your "platform-tools" folder
8. Click on platform-tools
9. Click "Ok."
10. Click "Ok."
11. Click "Ok."
12. Click "Ok."
(lol)
oh also i forgot to mention, unlock your bootloader now
steps to do that here:
1. open cmd
2. enter fastboot flashing unlock
3. hit yes on the prompt that appears on your phone
4. you might need to enter fastboot flashing unlock_critical (if cmd gives you an error saying it doesn't exist or something just kinda ignore it, i'm only putting it here just in case)
5. you should be good to continue
-
Pt. 4: The Installation.
-
Installing HavocOS
1. MAKE SURE THAT YOUR PHONE IS IN FASTBOOT MODE.
2. Open aura-p-release-3201
3. Run flash_all.bat (double click on it)
4. Wait until it finishes running.
5. As soon as it closes and your phone screen turns black, immediately hold the power and volume down buttons and enter fastboot mode.
6. Open Command Prompt (CMD)
7. Flash the Kernel by typing fastboot flash boot <boot.img> and replace <boot.img> with the file path to your boot.img file. (Tip: you can drag the file into CMD to put in the file path.)
8. Flash HavocOS by typing fastboot flash system <HavocOS PHH.img> and replace <HavocOS PHH.img> with the file path to the HavocOS PHH.img file. Ignore the errors.
9. Wait until everything finishes and unplug your phone (if you want to)
10. Use volume buttons to go down to "Recovery Mode"
11. Select "Recovery Mode" with your power button. (Tip: double tap the power button to get past the bootloader unlocked warning screen)
12. Swipe to allow modifications
13. Tap on wipe > format data > type "yes" > press "OK"
14. Press back until you get to the TWRP home screen
15. Tap "Reboot" > tap "Recovery" > then tap "Do not install"
16. Wait until it reboots back into recovery.
17. Follow steps 12-14, then hit "Reboot" > then hit "System"
If it doesn't boot into the setup screen, open fastboot mode and format the data once more, then reboot into system.
----------------------------------------------------------
and here are the easiest and also some of the dumbest GSI root instructions ever:
Download Magisk-v21.4.zip
1. Open TWRP and mount everything. (except for USB storage. micro sd card is optional.)
2. Put Magisk-v21.4.zip on your phone (in file explorer)
3. Open the TWRP file manager (advanced > file manager)
4. Navigate to /system/system/bin
5. Find resetprop and tap on it
6. Rename resetprop to phh-resetprop
7. tap on install
8. install Magisk-v21.4.zip
9. Boot up your phone, open magisk, and update everything.
10. Turn on MagiskHide in the settings of magisk manager.
11. Profit$ (lol)
SafetyNet should pass if you did it properly (I would find it kinda funny if you managed to mess up those easy instructions)
Alright guys, have a nice day!
p.s: I might begin work on a user-friendly auto-installer soon.
Thank you OP, finally got Android 11 fully working including SafetyNet, camera/flashlight, Bluetooth and SD card. The only tricky part was the Bluetooth - got help from this comment - needed to delete both APKs before first boot.

yea i forgot to include that part. I thought you didn't need to do that before boot tho. I managed to get BT working by deleting BluetoothResCommon.apk and renaming RazerAuraBluetoothRes.apk to BluetoothResCommon.apk.

Quick question: is this version of Havoc have no issues with receiving SMS? Previous versions of it cause this annoying issue that after few minutes from restart SMS stop arriving to phone and the only fix at that time was just to restart it. Tried some patches from telegram but basically end up with no fix.

So do I have to reflash in order to fix Bluetooth?
Sadly my main reason for losing is that I'm running into a mako issue with HavocOS. systenUI keeps crashing whenever the on-screen keyboard is displayed. This happens with the default installed gBoard and SwiftKey beta. It also crashes when the screen goes to sleep. I followed all the steps from the video. Only thing I did besides that was restore a backup from Google Drive so I didn't have to manually install everything. I'm sadly out of ideas and might have to switch to normal GSI or back to LineageOS so the device is stable enough to use.

I have never had to fix BT before first boot.
And also, that's kinda weird. I've never had any systemUI crashes with the keyboard, although i have had a weird bug where the entire OS crashes and it reboots into a state where its impossible to use. however, to fix that, i just reflashed and i never encountered the bug again. your install might have been a lemon. maybe install again?

Trying out now. I'm at work so I don't have my laptop with me. Trying it work a live CD image lol
Update: It's been sitting on the "Powered by Android" screen for 20+ minutes. I already tried a data wipe from the bootloader. I can get into TWRP. I'm going to give it another 10 minutes then try flashing HavocOS again.
Update 2: I've made progress. Now it's stick on the HavocOS loading screen. It's been like that for 20+ minutes. Tried the bootloader data format.
Update 3: I was finally able to flash HavocOS at home without issue. I flashed Magisk before even booting into the OS and it seems to be working ok. After it rebooted to complete the setup/install, the issue came back. I'm just flashing HavocOS without Magisk for now.
Hello,
Thank you for the guide, i have installed the android 11 successfully, but i got a startup loup when i tried to restart the phone (in a normal way ), the havoc logo started up then the password, but it just louping between them..
