Evening,
Every time I open the cover on my Note 10.1 2014 I am confronted with the following pointless note taker/ calender screen. Before I can access the unlock pattern screen I have to click close. There doesn't appear to be an option in settings to disable it.
Please can anyone advise me how to disable this as its pretty annoying... It's not apparent what app or widget it actually is!
Thanks
Settings, General, Accessory, un-check Book Cover DayNote box.
I myself like it, it's useful for me to see next calendar event and sometimes to take quick notes.

Massive thanks for that ddavtian. I've extensively modified the pad, but couldn't think where the option to stop this was... These is another option for a different note taker on the lock screen which I must have tried about 10 times lol!
Same thing happened to me with the Poetic cover. It was driving me nuts trying to find the setting!
Hi guys, does anyone know how to turn off knock on on the G3? Tried looking for it in gestures settings like in the G2 but can't seem to find it. The g3 keeps waking while in my pocket making it feels constantly warm. Anyone else experiencing this? I don't mind just using the button at the back to wake it. The placement for the button is quite comfortable actually.
I'm sorry to hear this is a problem on the g3, I have this problem on the double tap to wake code on my Nexus 5 and so I just turned it off. I know for the galaxy 2, sorry g2, voice dictation, they released firmware fix for this I think

Can you tell me how you did the wake code on the nexus 5?
And to the op, isn't there a setting in the screen gestures section of the phone to turn it off?
You can turn it off in the hidden system settings menu
Dial 3845#*855# to access it.

It is the very last setting in the list, just scroll all the way down to the bottom.
If you have the Korean model replace the 855 with 400
I turned this feature off as it will save battery life too as it needs to keep the screen driver awake happy using the back button.

855 opens my hidden menu. But I still can figure out which option to choose after scrolling down to the bottom. The screen shot shows my menu. Could u let me know which option should I be disabling?

we don't have that functionality by default, it's patched into custom kernels and eats 2-3% battery per hour (another reason I turn it off)
Just so you know, I had issues with Knock On unlocking my phone in my pocket so I turned it upside down and the issue is 100% gone !
I think it's due to the light sensor not being 100% in the dark then the taps on the lap unlocked the phone. When it's upside down the light sensor is kept in the dark
I just can't find that setting... Ive looked everywhere. My phone is rooted with towelroot. Is that the problem?

Is it really the light sensor? I think the proximity sensor would make more sense in this case! Otherwise you wouldn't be able to use the knock on feature in the darkness...
Screen wakes in my pocket whichever way up I put it in and I don't want to have the screen face outwards. This is very annoying and didn't happen on my G2 - The screen is clearly very sensitive. I don't want to turn off knock on and I don't really like knock code.

Same here. Upside up or Upside down makes no difference for me. Display from body away seems to be the only real solution...
Looks like a few of u are experiencing the same problem. I have been facing the screen away from me as a solution but it feels so awkward when I m so used to have the screen face in. And I can't find the hidden settings to turn knock on off. They really hid very well I guess.
Hello,
is there a way i can disable the screen to turn on with the wrist move ?
This auto screen power on , on wrist move is killing my battery, especially when i'm driving.
I want to switch on the screen only on tapping the screen.
Thanks a lot
I'm pretty sure there's not... yet. The O/S is pretty immature though. I'll bet that before long there will be apps or mods that will allow such basic O/S customization.

I suppose there is not a way to disable the heart meter , pedometer or see what app run on the background and disable it ?
I found the way to disable these. Look in the 360 development forum.
If you find the package that listens for wrist motion, I can take a look at disabling the component that turns it on.
I got a little more info about this last night when I did a logcat on the watch. I'm going to speak with someone more knowledgeable to see what we can do with that info.
You should watch the mods post in the 360 development forum for more info.
A easy solution is the Theater mode.
You can access this setting by swiping down, and once to the left. Now you have to press the button to wake your smartwatch.
The only disadvantage is that your watch is not vibrating anymore when getting new messages.
I hope this will help you.
Isn't this controlled by "Tilt to wake screen". You have to access through the phone.

I'm not 100% sure, since I've had my 360 for less than a week... But seeing the date of this question about tilt to wake was from the end of last year.. It could ha e been implemented since then. You can disable it in the settings from the Android Wear app on you're Android phone.
Go to settings there is an option to turn it off......
Like the Title says, can someone please add a Touch-To-Wake option.
We already have the Ambient Screen and Tilt To Wake Screen options that were introduced in the Android Wear 5.0 update, but for the life of me, I cannot understand why a Touch To Wake option was never included.
Having read through countless posts and threads on the net, it seems to not only be mine but everybody else's bane of their Android Wear experience. It would have to be THE most requested option in the history of Android Wear.
I realize there is Theater Mode, but this just isn't good enough.
We want to be able to have notifications pushed to the watch, we want to have the Vibrate when a notification comes through, we want to be able to tilt/flick the wrist to have the watch turn on........what we don't want is the watch turning on every time it touches a part of your body. It is especially annoying if you are sitting on a table with your arms crossed, or even sitting in a car with your arm crossed over and the screen touches your leg.
Please Please Please add this option in the official Moto360 ROM and release it yesterday.

1) It's already there. Everything you mentioned is already in the stock ROM.
2) Wrong section
3) Release it.... Yesterday?
4) Don't beg people to do things then tell them when you need it done by - it's not your work, it's none of your business when it gets completed.
5) I have yet to see any other threads requesting tap to wake. (Perhaps because it's already there?)

Oh. Ignoring the first and last things I mentioned, all of the others still apply, though.
Putting it in theater mode is that bad? Only pressing the button turns it on I use it when I know I am not gonna be able to look at it or I need to take it off so it just stays "asleep"just have your phone vibrate and then you can wake your watch as you please

Yes it is.
Theatre mode doesn't wake the screen up when you rotate the watch.
It doesn't vibrate when a notification comes through.
I would like to have all the features available when the watch is in its normal mode......but without the touch-to-wake option turned on.

Its called theater mode....
You could always just compile your own kernel and remove the function. It honestly wouldn't be that hard. It would just take some research. If you want me to point you in the right direction, I can, but forewarned, it will require some possibly heavy learning depending on your current level.

Yeah, hence why I put this post into the Original Android Development thread. An option like this should be made a standard on all Android Wear devices, especially the Moto360.
I wouldn't have the faintest idea about compiling a kernal and to be honest, have no intention of rooting/modifying my Moto360 (even though I do it for all my phones).
All I wanted was to request that this option be made available, hopefully for the next Android Update because there are a great number of people who are having the same issues I am. Honestly, it is the only option I wished I had since the first time I turned the watch on.

I understand that sometimes there are things we may not like BUT this seems like it should be such an easy damn fix.
I know when I'm sleeping this screen goes on and off all night. My arm hits my other arm or whatever... I toss and turn a lot.
I totally agree. I must have this option. No more tap to wake. I like tilt to wake but tap to wake activates on accident all the time. Can't find a solution.
How on earth does touch to wake constantly happen accidently but tilt to wake does not?

The tilt to wake works by the gyro sensor. It just means you might need to give your wrist a bit of a flick to turn the screen on.
What i don't understand is the touch to wake would have to be the most annoying thing for all wearable, and yet the developers refuse to put in the option to turn it off.
even in the upcoming update, there is no mention of including that option.

You mis understood my statement. I was asking how one could find the touch to wake annoying but NOT the tilt to wake. As it is.. I am actually using it just as you describe. I have tilt to wake off and then I can just touch the screen to turn it on. I don't like the tilt to wake on the moto 360, I much prefered pebbles wrist flick to wake up. As for touch to wake, I am not sure why this would be a problem, what is touching your watch that keeps turning it on?
Tilt to wake isn't that much of an issue for me. I actually like it the way it is.
As for the touch to wake; you name it, it's annoying.
- Crossing your arms while sitting at a table
- sitting in the car with your hand on your leg (or between your knees)
- walking past someone and having their hand brush across yours (and accidentally touching the watch)
- crossing your arms
It's not enough that it just turns on but what add to the frustration is that if you aren't cautious, the Google Speak function kicks in and starts doing all sorts of crazy stuff on your phone
Hey guys,
New S9 user here and having an issue with it. Clearly I'm not using the correct keywords, otherwise I'm sure it would have been an easy Google, but I can't, for the life of me, word it in any way properly. Been living with this issue since I got it and I hate it!
When I have my finger on the bottom part of the screen while it's in my pocket, when I take it out of my pocket, it'll do this short vibrate and then the screen comes on at the lock screen.
I've disabled screen always on.
I've disabled Samsung Pay while screen off and even at lock screen.
I'm not really sure what else to try.
Thanks!

It was doing it to me too, take my phone out of my pocket and the screen was already on... Then after I noticed it happening regularly I did some investigating too and discovered that setting, was never something I would use anyway so off it went
The above only partially fixed my issue. I was getting weird, random vibrate when I picked up my phone.
It's the most annoying feature ever! It is called SMART ALERT.
Search it. Disabled it. Profit.
