Hi !
As you can read in the title,I was looking for an app that turns ON and OFF the phone with a non-SAMSUNG flip cover.
I have some "BIG" questions :
- Is there a way to make s-view work with every flip cover (maybe using an app) ?
-Is there an app that turns ON and OFF the screen using some sensors (proxymity,light,etc.) so it can work with ANY flip cover ?
-Is there an app that copies/fakes s-view functions ?
Now,I have some partial answers for my questions : I found some apps on the play store that do what I asked before but I every app uses the proximity sensor so I think that the battery will drain faster.
Here are the links to the app I found :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobius.rainbow
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.zalio.android.cso
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gbolger.covercontrol
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobius.fliponlite
Since I don't have a flip cover with a window,I'm trying this app :
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=net.zalio.android.cso
I don't knowif it drains the battery too much or it doesn't so I'll edit the post and I'll keep you updated.
If you know something more or if you are using some kind of app/apps for s-view functions or for locking/unlocking the screen,please post a play store link to the app/apps.

Just got me Nexus one today, love it, however, has anyone else noticed a problem with the calibration of the G-sensor\accelerometer\tilt sensor?
I ran the Layar application and noticed the horizon was not straight. I then downloaded some bubble level apps and they have the same problem. You can calibrate the sensor in the bubble app and then it works fine, however this calibration is only for that specific app.
I tried the speedforce 3d game and the ship drives to the left when the phone is level.
this is very annoying!!
Does anyone know how to calibrate the sensor so it is calibrated for all apps? Like you can do on windows mobile phones. I cant find the setting anywhere? arrgh
I've the same problem too.
Same here !!
Anyone one looking into a fix?

Same with me.. the touch screen position will offset. I have to lock my phone bring it up again to correct the issue.
You can vote for this issue (G-sensor out of calibration and offers no calibration utility) over in the Android issues list here:

Just log in with your Google ID and click on the star to vote for it. With only 5 star votes currently it is near the bottom of the list of bugs to be addressed...
Just thought this might be a place for anyone to post any quick circle apps they know of.
The Play Store seems very sparse.
All I can see is two by Sternberg Labs.
Any more very gratefully received..

LG G3/ THL 5000 quick circle/square - files location.
Hello guys,
Excuse me if I may be posting this thread in the wrong section but I couldn't find out anything about this topic.
The deal is that my boss bought THL 5000 which per my view is a good device. That phone, much like the LG G3, has a special case, that has a square cut in the upper part ( the one on the G3 is circle shaped). There you can see the clock, answer calls etc.
The issue he is having is that when the case is closed and there is an incoming call, the wallpaper of the caller is so light that he can't see the name of the person that is calling. I promised to help him, assigned a picture to my contact in his phone, called him but on the quick square screen the default photo remains. If I open the phone I can then see the photo I want but not on the quick lockscreen
Thinking it is quite similar as the LG G3 quick circle, I tried to find some information on where these files could be found through root browser so that I can replace the picture with darker one but to no avail. The phone is rooted and I am desperately trying to find a way of changing this caller wallpaper on the quick lockscreen access ( as stated above - trying to change contact's photo didn't do the trick)
How to activate AirView to work with fingers like on Note 3?
I also miss that feature especially with speed dial. I couldn't find the option anywhere. It seems to be no longer available
It only works with s pen

Yes ok, work only with pen but... It's an hardware limitation or just only software?
Seems like hardware to me. When you 'hack' into the hidden settings and enable air view it still doesn't work.

hi ,
there is a thread here " somewhere " ? (Note 4 forum, sorry can't find link at moment )
Best to find it hidden deep in settings is to use a launcher eg. Nova launcher
i tried to activate it ..Nova launcher /long press home screen /select shortcut /activities ..settings select airview (finger)
etc .
i could only get air browse to work 100%( waving above pictures in stock pictures app etc) and accept air call (by waving hand over stock call screen ( ,see screenshot for info)
but still struglling to sort out air finger to work .!
good luck
If you enable ALL the airview tags. Even the one that lists nothing, but still has a toggle switch. Then it does work with your finger, like in the email and message app. However, this stops working as soon as you switch off the screen!? One of the airview tabs causes the settings to crash. I'm sure it's not a hardware issue. Someone will incorporate it all in a sweet rom soon enough. Hopefully indie over at omega rom!

No Self-Capacitive sensor
Hello.
I am sorry to say this, but Samsung removed the self-capacitive touch screen layer from the Galaxy Note 4, because it was used very rarely.
They did not think, that there must be users, that still use this.
Well, power users are only a minority, so they must satisfy minimalists.

As a Junior Member, I am unable to parse links. Please forgive me for this inconvinence
The Note 3 was the only one to have three touch screen layers:
Wacom Digitizer (S-Pen)
Normal (Mutual/Multi)-Capacitance
Self-Capacitance (AirTouch)
I hope this helped (Probably not)

No problem, bro
It's just a bit annoying…
[Q] As above peeps. Im currently running a Samsung based rom and the open close of the cover kills the screen....but not on the AOSP based roms....is there an app for this or is there some functionality in the aosp rom that I can use to switch this on - if I can then id rather go the aosp route.
Cheers to anyone that chips in.
I'm using cm11 snapshot m11, device turn on/off works fine with s-view cover. You can also install hal monitor if you want more features..

So, your saying from a stock install you can open and close the cover and it works....?
Yes..
OK - brilliant - ill try that rom.....I can only thing it was one of the ones I was using just happened not to have that functionality....cheers
is it possile to make a 3rd party s-view cover work with note 4? Like with the note 3 there was an xposed module for it.
I have it working on KitKat with Synapse and a kernel with the hack in place (I'm using Nadia). Works a treat.
Here's the link where I found out about it.
