Every time my Ring App notifies me, it turns on my screen, the problem is if i ignore it and it stays in my pocket, the screen will stay on while moving around in my pocket. Other notifications will sound and vibrate but not wake my screen.. i looked thru the Notification settings, but still cant figure it out.
any help is aprreciated, thanks
I have the Ring app, and never had that problem.

Interesting, so if you are looking a your phone with the screen off and trigger your Ring Doorbell.. your phone screen stays dark?
Maybe i need re-install the app.. hmmm
I've tried looking into my settings but I can't seem to find notification settings in the actual Ring app. I believe the usual behavior is the screen goes from AOD to with lock screen, if I interact with it it goes back to AOD. I don't know if the screen goes on when in my pocket, but it's never on when I take it out even after a motion detection

I have the same issue on Pixel 2/XL. It is very annoying. I have tried everything, but have not been able to disable the screen wake. I contacted Ring to request a feature to disable screen wake, but of course they did not respond.
This is still the most annoying thing. My phone is rooted and I have yet to find a solution that keeps the app from waking the screen. Of all the apps I have, Ring app is the only one that misbehaves this way.

I guess post title says it all..
Whenever I start a phone call, the screen goes off...it is very annoying.
Any way to stop that behavior ?
I have searched this forums with no luck.
I am running Modaco's 2.3 ROM on an unbranded hero.
I have tried using Powermanager tools to define a 2min timeout in the "screen off during call" feature but with no luck.
thanks for the help!
Cheers,

There is an app called shake awake which wakes up the screen during a call when you move it away from your face.

Thanks. i'll give a try but the bad reviews are scaring me.
Is there a setting anywhere for that screen turning off while on call ?
i didn't liked "shake awake" the calls got dropped when the phone "shaked" sometimes i had to call the same person 3 or 4 times because the call ended. first i thought it was my phone but the problems started after installing shake awake. after i removed it my phone worked again
Keepscreen does the trick. Works absolutly great. The full version is able to keep the screen on with every application. Very handy when reading mail, browsing etc. You must set youre screenout delay in settings from the phone to 30sec.

I'd like an app that actually does kill the screen as soon as the call button is pressed. Sometimes the Hero is too slow to turn off the screen and you hang up the call with your cheek.
Thats annoying.
Every time I turn the screen off, the phone vibrates 2 times with about 5 seconds delay. I have tracked this vibration down to fingerprint scanner. Its seems to be an indication of it going to sleep. When you turn the screen off, you can place your finger on the scanner and it will wake the screen up. This function is active for few seconds, and then the scanner goes to sleep (signalized by the vibration).
Anyone know how to turn this notification off? Or even better, how to disable this whole function entirely so the scanner sleeps immediately after screen goes off?
Additional information
the Vibration occurs even if you turn the screen on after turning it off but before the vibration (seems irregular though)
the time of the vibration changes with the lock time setting
turning off notification vibrations entirely helps, but I dont want to do that
not using the fingerprint unlock helps too, but I would prefer to keep using it

Hey. My g928c is runnin on custom rom/kernel. Not sure that could be the same or not but when I turn off the screen, it doesnt wake without pressing home or power button. Maybe you use easyHome app or kind of app which uses fingerprint sensor. My device doesnt wake up after turned the screen off and placing a finger on the scanner or etc. As I remember, easyHome app has got that wake up option but in one of older versions. I hope you solve it..
Oh, I was sure this behavior was caused by the sensor, but now that I actually switched back default locker, it doesnt do it. So the issue is entirely in the Hi Locker I am using. I should have checked that in the first place. So thank you. Now my question changes. Are there any more locker options that use fingerprint scanners other than the default and hi locker?

Glad to know you solved it. Im using default lockscreen and never wondered any others lol. Maybe you try{if didnt} Go launcher's go locker etc. Dont know anything more in this case sorry, good luck.
I tried few other alternatives and honestly they were way too cumbersome and bloated. For now I revoked Hi Locker's permission to make notifications, which got rid of the vibration. I hope nothing broke with this modification. Thanks for getting me on track.
Has anyone found a way to disable screen wake for notifications? Every time I receive a new email or hangout message(Those are the two I've noticed so far) my screen will turn on. Driving me crazy.

Just tested it, I don't have screen wake on notification, neither with power plugged in, nor on battery. Also tried with with always on display, it only adds notification icon, doesn't even change the brightness.
Go into "settings" and turn off all notifications
it's also annoying that the screen lights up when the battery reaches 100% while wirelessly charging,
it lights up the whole bedroom.
This was driving me crazy. Came across 'SMS Popup' app I used years ago and it works like a charm. No more screen lighting up when a message comes in. Disable notifications in stock messaging app and enable in SMS popup. Unselect 'screen on for popup'. I like the popup options better than default messaging app too, you can configure the buttons and even have one that reads the message out loud.
Edit: After further testing, results are very inconsistent. Works great sometimes and not at all others. I have uninstalled and it's back to square one.
Is anyone else having their phone do a random vibrate like a notification came in, but you don't see anything showing up as coming in to have it do that?
Advanced Features->Smart Alert is causing it. It will vibrate upon pickup detection if you have a missed call or unread message.
I've been experiencing the same problem on my S8+ and it's driving me crazy. Notification reminder, smart alert and all these other features are off. Really don't know what to do, I'm guess it's a hardware issue.

Do you have Bixby disabled? It was happening to me when I hit the Bixby button with Hello Bixby disabled.

Hmm, ok. I just turned it Off. It was happening while the phone was already in my hand and I'd be doing other stuff. No calls or msgs were coming in when it happened though. Will see if this stops it.
Settings -> Accessibility -> Notification Reminder -> Turn Off
Hope that works. If not I remember back in my S6 days there was a menu in accessibility also for one of the categories where it had heptic feedback for sounds and everytime there was movement or sound it would vibrate. I cant find it though

Same here, I doubt that it's related to notification reminder. I had it turned off since I bought the phone.
If there is nothing happening (messages coming etc.) I think the vibration might come from the false haptic feedback in home button. Mine does it quite regularly and it is starting to drive me crazy. I hope it is software issue as the DOA isn't available anymore and I don't want to give it for the repair just yet.
My Phone also vibrates when my finger is near the fingerprint sensor and cant read it

Is your bluetooth connected to anything? Once your phone's bluetooth disconnects from the other device, the phone vibrates
I have the same issue. It makes me crazy ! Samsung - any ideas?
Same here. I'm going nuts if nobody knows a solution.
That's since S4 days, people.
Mine does it too while I'm holding it. No notification on the status bar. It will just vibrate by itself.
My S4 never did that and that doesn't mean we should be fine with it.
It happens to me with the home button, the vibration isnt reliable and it sometimes vibrated 3 times.

So I uninstalled an app called Samsung Pay, then my phone just stopped getting the random vibrating.

It is the Edge Panel. I had to turn off the Edge Panel to stop the vibration. Or you can go to settings and turn off the vibration for activating the Edge Panel. What happens is when you hold your phone, your palms sometimes activate the edge panel.
Since we are at it , while am driving and having the phone between my legs it turns on by itself. no vibration or anything. Anyone with similar issues?
P.S No notifications whatsoever. System or Internet based.
I can't find anything on this issue, but a friend of mine with S7 edge also has this problem, so it doesn't seem like I'm the only one.
1. This is not notification waking up screen, though I'd like to turn that off too.
2. This is not popup showing and disappearing.
This affects the following:
1. If you get a notification popup that stays around, such as from LINE.
2. If you have an ongoing phone call or facebook call or any app overlay that stays when the screen is off.
The screen turns on by itself. Continuously. You can turn the screen off by pressing power. The screen will turn back on immediately. This kills the battery.
No one else has this?
