When I picked up my P6P the screen turns on which I don't want. I've changed these and it still comes on when I pick it up. What I would like is tap to check and the old standby press the power.
This doesn't seem possible right now? Or it's either so obvious or hidden that I can't see how to achieve this.
I have Lift to check phone turned off.
Tap to check phone turned off.
Don't turn screen on for new notifications
Don't show notifications on lockscreen.
Now Playing turned off.
All face tracking to keep screen on turned off.
But pick the phone up and the screen turns on with the time, battery percentage and the fingerprint symbol even with all the above turned off.

It's related to having fingerprint unlock set up. 2 ways around it that I know of:
1. Delete fingerprints and use another unlock method, or
2. Connect your phone to your computer and in adb shell run this command:
shell settings put secure doze_quick_pickup_gesture 0

Thank you for the ADB command - that is absolutely driving me nuts that it just randomly wants to turn the screen on if I bump it or move it.

20 kinds of thanks @Lughnasadh Not to get ranty, because it's funny as of now but this thing seriously wakes up and pops the display on if I even think about touching it. Because I have smart unlock on with my watch I invariably end up opening up some random menu or hitting manual lock and then have to pin it open.

hi, I am curious where to go to set the tilt 2 to automatically lock to the winmo 6.5's screen after like a few minitues of not use. I konw that if I press the end call button for a few sec, it locks it but is there a way to do it automatically after a few minutes?
thansk.
Try This
I can give you a suggestion, but I have the Verizon version, so it may be a little different. I also may depend on your ROM...
Goto Settings > System > Smart Lock. Checkmark Dim Lock box.
Goto Settings > System > Power. Select Backlight, set backlight dim time, and then your device will auto lock when your backlight dims.
I also use Gyrator to auto lock my phone when I turn it upside down. (I always insert in my pocket upside down (Reverse portrait), but I never use it upside down, and this prevents unwanted button/screen presses while in my pocket.)
thnak you so much for the reply. It appears to me that the ATT version has slightly different setting for it. I do see the lock option but that would require a password, anyway to still let it enabled without any password? anyone with ATT can shine some lights.

I believe the Lock Setting Devoncoon is referring to is fixed with SmartLock (app here on XDA). That might help to download that app, if you have not done so. Once you install it, set it up as Devoncoon instructed you, and you will not require a password lock.
Hi guys, I've been lurking for a while until I got my GN with tmo plan. So far it's been a great phone coming from an iphone 4, definitely a step up and a different experience.
Anyway, wondering if anyone know how to set up the security settings. I set the auto lock to 30mins with pattern pass, and but as soon as I hit the power button and turn it back on, it ask for my pass. I thought it supposed to unlock immediately? unless I left it "off" for more than 30mins. Is this normal on android or am I missing something?

I think if you lock manually, it locks. You can let screen time out by itself and it will just unlock. I use 1 minute screen timeout and just let it time out by itself if I'm going back to device soon. Screen time out adjustable in addition to security lock.

I don't use the pattern unlock so have never run into this, but I think it might be a logical issue. The pattern lock and various other options are under "Screen Security" and so are basically just screen unlocks. The additional option for the auto lock seems superfluous and illogical, but maybe someone else can shed light on that. I am not sure why the auto lock after screen sleep would be needed if the pattern is already needed to reactivate the screen/disable the screen lock...
I'm curious if anyone else has had this issue. I have to enable a PIN or pattern lock to allow a corporate secure wifi network setting to be saved and for something else (I think for my bank app). From the G4 settings it seems like you can set it to NOT lock when turning off with power button (last option), and a 30 minute timeout before it auto-locks. Yet despite that, mine still seems to lock requiring a pattern input and not just a swipe if I leave it on the table for just a minute. What am I missing?
Thanks all!

These settings are under Lockscreen. Right at the end. It should work, unless you have another app controlling locking.
Exactly.. it "should work"... but it isn't. It insist on locking all the time.. Could the fact that I"m connected to said secure WIFI cause that?? (vs just having an entry for it)
You could try going under the setting for Security - Phone administrators. Look if there is something that is controlling phone lock.
I know for my example, I must enable PIN locking, but my phone administrator for that account enables up to 30 minutes before forcing lock. So as long as I uncheck the setting for "Lock phone immediately on power button," my phone will immediately be unlocked within a 30 minute window where I don't need to enter my PIN.

Right, that's what I'm going for / expecting. I have 3 in there, Android Device Manager, Support & Protection (Verizon thing it looks like) and AirDroid. Only Android Device Managers is checked ON. ADM can obviously affect the lock screen and can change the lock password, but I don't see anything else which would affect this timeout being ignored. hmmmm
(Thanks, BTW!)
I was looking at my Smart Lock section and read the blurb about On-body detection, which was the only Smart Lock I had enabled. It says "Just unlock once and your device stays unlocked as long as you keep holding your device or carry it on you." .... "Your device will lock when it detects that it's been set down"..!! So, I've now turned on-body detection OFF as, in this case, it's working against me. Seems it's not too well integrated with the other options (ignores the Security Lock Timer).
If I don't post back, it's probably working as hoped.
Disabling on-body detection has definitely solved my issue with the G4 locking shortly after setting it down on the desk.
SOLVED
So, while I have my phone on my desk the Always on Display will occasionally disappear leaving me with a blank screen. The only thing that gets the phone to wake is any type of alert/notification or physical push of the power button. I have Double Tap to check phone enabled, and when the AOD is active it will work, but when AOD does its little disappearing act, it wont.
Anyone else having this problem?
I know that the AOD is set to turn off when the phone is in my pocket and I determined that the sensor is in the top left part of the screen, but there is nothing blocking the sensor when AOS decides to turn off. I'm almost certain the issue is tied to that feature... unless I just have a defective phone.

Have you been messing with Immersive Mode where you hide the nav/status bars?
mine does this occasionally too. not sure why. i assumed it was an unfortunate side effect of setting my phone to immersive mode.
Did you install Greenify? I experienced a similar issue with Greenify installed.

You can fix the immersive mode causing hangups by running this command.
adb shell settings put global policy_control immersive.full=apps,-com.google.android.googlequicksearchbox
can use .full for full immersive, .navigation to hide nav bar, and .status to hide status bar
Thanks for the tips, all. I am not running any third party apps to alter anything stock on the phone. I'm not exactly sure what immersive mode is or how to activate it, but I haven't changed any settings in the phone other than your typical changes like font size, wallpapers and notification tones.
I do have an app called Calls Blacklist to block unknown and private calls, which Ive been getting a lot of lately. Perhaps that app's not playing nice with the AOD?

No should just be able to run the command I posted above
I narrowed it down to the Call Blocker app. Just applied the November security patch and now it happens everytime the app blocks an incoming call. I haven't uninstalled the app yet, but when I do I will update the thread to confirm my theory.
Thanks to everyone for their input.
Anyone notice it turns the screen off? I think the proximity sensor thinks your face is going against the screen and the display turns off but it's really annoying when your trying to access things from the notifications.
Hello my friend!
I have the same phone as you, and I'm sorry but I'm not having any problems the likes of which you describe.
May I suggest the following?
1. Restart phone in safe mode (now this will vary based on your Carrier: on my unlocked Google issued phone, I press Power and Vol UP at same time; Verizon is Power and Vol down, others may be different: Then on the menu that pops up, press and hold Reset and it'll ask you if you want to restart in safe mode, hit yes, then restart)(SafeMode will display on screen). Then call someone and try to recreate the "black screen, can't pull down notification window". If you can pull it down (as I suspect you will be able) then it's an app problem you've got (not a hardware or system issue)
2. Try going to Settings: Apps: Special App Access (way at the bottom of the screen) and then try finding either Display Over Apps applications or Picture-in-Picture apps or other groups that may interfere with your Phone app. I bet you'll find that there's an app or utility you've installed that is conflicting with your screen.
Let me/us know how it goes!

Yeah, every phone does this if you have your finger over the sensor. Find a better spot to drag down.
