Every little bump in the road makes it turn on the Active Display (or whatever it's called now).
Any ideas? I like it the rest of the time.
It's called Moto Display now, you can turn it off by going to the Moto app and hitting Display.

I noticed that too. Goes nuts on my passenger seat. I thinks its completely on or off. Those are your choices that I've found.

Has anyone else noticed how sensitive the screen is? I constantly find my phone has woke up because of a notification. Then my pocket does all kinds of random things. pockt dialing, pocket facebooking, pocket gaming and last but not least pocket txting lol.

Yeah its meant to be. If you go to settings>control>auto-adjust screen sensitivity and uncheck the box it should help.

Oh I know about that. Thats for when you have gloves on. Its not checked. The screen is just sensitive. Its not bad just alot more sensitive than any of my other galaxy series of phones.

Same issue and my friend has the same problem. If they'd get rid of the stupid screen on for notifications it would help but it's also not good that when squatting down its easy to press the home button in your pocket since it's not fully flush with the body. Thus allowing you to still accidentally unlock it the same way

I do enjoy the sensitivity for normal use. It's the abnormal things that get you lol.

Wait... your phone wakes up when you get a notification? Like the screen turns on when you receive an email or text? My phone stays locked and just flashes the LED light.

If you're rooted, you can make the home button not wake up the device with Wanam. I found that this caused a more problems than the brief wake on receiving text messages.
Not sure how to make it not wake the screen when you get a text message.
I've never seen it wake the screen for anything other than text and calls, though.

Something... Looks like "phone" in your screen shot, is keeping your phone awake for a crazy amount of time. Solve that and you're good again. Google it.

it's the NSA!!!!!!!!!
I'm not sure the cause or a permanent solution. But if you see the battery dropping fast... Whether it's from "phone" or anything else.... A reboot should clear it up and you won't lose so much battery life.
That is, if you notice it dropping too fast. Sometimes you might not catch it till it's too late and you're running for a charger. Lol

It's pretty obvious some app is keeping your phone awake once you have solid mobile network signal. Time for you to find out what it is.
I have Gravity box installed. That's it. last night I charged it all the way up before I went to bed. I woke up with a 50℅ loss! This time it was the media server. Whatever that is......if I look on the wakelock detector there are 1000 little things but nothing stands out. Tonight I'll do the same thing but do a reboot before I lay it to rest.
What's weird is I only get this problem when the phone is not being used. If its of any relevance I leave the WiFi on all night. And have it set to turn off when the phone sleeps.

you should know the drill. start getting rid of apps to see if it improves. or, go reverse and start over, installing one app at a time. other posters above are right. you've got something else polling, that's causing the wake lock.

Seems like you could also just have some faulty hardware? e.g. a bad battery or charge sensor?

Last night I left the WiFi on. Cleared all tabs in the recent and I lost only 28% .
Making progress. It was some app left running that kept it awake. Not sure what though.

One thing I'm missing on the X is some type of notification of my battery charge. Is there any way to get say a charge level on the active notification screen, so when I touch/pick it up it'll say the battery level along with the time.
I think there's something like that in gravity box... Tho that may have been lock screen... Can't remember. Lol

the active notification screen will tell you when your battery is super-low, but nothign that indicates you're charging.

Well my assumption was anyone asking for nonstandard features would be rooted. I guess that may be a bad assumption with the release of 4.4.2, but typically anyone on XDA would at least have root.

I have the Verizon Dev edition Moto X but when I go to charge the phone I have to press the power button to turn off the screen. It doesn't just dim then turn off after a while. I have active display on and daydream off but I'm not sure if that has something to do with it.
I should also mention that I'm not rooted or unlocked and running 4.4. Not the biggest problem in the world. In fact as I type this all I can see in my mind is the first world problems meme. Just wanted to know if there was a fix our if anyone else even had this problem.

Ok Here is the deal, I heve my phone in my pocket with my bluetooth headset connected and I get a call. The screen turns on and is fully active in my pocket. This has disconnected my blue tooth, hung up on people and just made my life suck when calling on this phone. I have tested it by calling it with the sensors covered and it lights right up, then I uncover the sensor and nothing happens. So then I disconect the bluetooth and cover the sensor and the screen go out, uncover it and the screen turns back on. I have spent alot of time looking for a setting and have called Samsung but no one knows how to fix this problem. I have had every att varient since the captivate and have never had this problem. So is anyone else haveing this problem???? Thanks for the replies!!!

Wow dude I've been having the same problem! So annoying to be going up a flight of stairs and hear it making the drip sound on the unlock screen. I thought maybe it was because some notification is turning the screen in (while others don't) . Or maybe my thigh was pressing the physical button (I hate the physical button because it can be triggered by anything). Not sure about the bluetooth issue.

Same here. I have a Best Buy rubbery minimal case on mine, and I get screenshots and start S voice in my pocket. I have found a small workaround. I my instance, I always put my phone in my right pocket with Samsung logo down. This will always wake my phone when I squat down. But if I put it in my pocket Samsung logo up, it nearly never happens. Not the most ingenious of solutions, but works for me.
I ended up turning off air wake up in accessibility settings. It seemed to be turning on my phone every time I placed the phone face down on the desk or in my pocket. Had nearly 5 hours of screen on time without knowing it the other day.

That setting is off already. I have checked everything twice!
I hate this problem! I finally bought an S-View knockoff case from China for about $20. I don't do anything worth the S-View app but the cover keeps the phone from turning on and doing accidental presses. Plus, I like the extra protection on the screen.

Ya I went to att to figure out this problem and they told me to get a S view case to stop the problem. I didn't like the idea of spending $50 on a case that I don't like but this phone is hanging up on my customers, so I got one. The good thing was they gave me 50% off and I used the isis money to pay for it. I hope they get that this is a problem and fix it soon, I need to use a different case.

So does this case keep it from turning on or just from detecting touches (capacitive objects). Because seems to me like it addresses the symptom and not the issue.

My defender case will be here Wednesday so I will test it and see if the screen comes on in the holster. With the S case it know that the screen is closed and doesn't turn on because it is connected to the back of the phone.

This is the problem though, I don't think the screen should come on in your pocket. The proximity sensor should not let the screen comes on till the phone is taken out of your pocket to keep things like what I described from happening.

Same here - really annoying. I have been forced to use the default lock screen (with pattern) due to the screen coming on when i receive a text. If I use slide unlock only, I inadvertently launch apps, change settings, etc. I interact with my phone way too much to be using a pattern every time I pull my phone out of pocket. Extremely annoying, Samsung!
