Every now and then when I wake my phone I see a black lockscreen. The only thing on the screen is the clock. My wallpaper and notifications are not shown. Sometimes tapping the screen will fix it. Other times I have to press the power button to put the phone back to sleep then wake it again.
I can't track down exact steps to repro, it seems to be random.
Has anyone else seen this? Any idea what causes it?
S6 edge, stock, non-rooted
This is what I see

How do you turn it off?
What's the purpose of it?
Settings, motion gestures , smart alert
Its just a way to show you your missed alerts and conserve battery
Interesting. In the screen shot above I had alerts (notice the green edge notification). If I swiped it right the contact image appears but no message. I also had some unread emails.
Anyway, it's not something I would use so I'll turn it off. Thanks for your help!
thats not from smart alerts. i have mine off and it does the same thing
Lock screen always on and black fix
To fix this problem pull down your extended quick tab list and un check the display always on option. This should fix you right up.

Hi all. I'm looking and trying but I can't find the setting to make all the buttons hidden during a call and just show a tab to drag up to show the dialer. I've set it before but it gets reset everytime I update cm7. Thanks!

Ok, still no solution, so maybe this will help....
currently my in call screen looks like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",

"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",

It used to look like this:
Somewhere through updating the cyanogen 7 nightlies I lost the option for "Force Touch UI" so that option is of no help.
any help would be great as I keep hitting buttons with my face because the proximity sensor on the phone is crap

The heroc does not have a proximity sensor.
As to the other question, I have not been able to find the option to hide the buttons. The only thing I can think to do would be to set the screen to turn off sooner.
There was an app or mod a while back that used the light sensor to turn the screen off or make the buttons go away. I cant remember what it was called but should work.
The second screen shot looks like an alternative dialer app. Might be worth it to try a non-stock dialer app to see if it does what you want.
I was wondering how to set silent mode on my device.
Thanks

If you hold down the power button you should get

and just select Silent.

So from the lock screen? I have also tried holding it and it doesn't go to silent, it selects option but doesn't work.
I just hold the vol down button down for a second or two if the phone is not locked . If its locked, I use the slider on the lock screen (I use the AOSP lock screen).
Ummmm there is a button in the pulldown. Second one from the right.
hahaha
There is an free app in the market. Search curvefish and look for "silentmode on off". It adds a widget that toggles from vibrate to silent back to ring again. It's usually one of the first apps I reinstall.
I use CM7 and have 2 profiles, 1 is school and 1 is normal... School will mute EVERYTHING from alarms to any type of notification to media. Normal will make everything medium volume..
Its fairly simple to setup and its incredibly easy to switch.
Hi there,
Apologies if this is a noobie question, but is it possible to change the docking settings from the blue background, and time/weather display? Or is there an app that will do the job?
I wondered if there might be something that could do a slide show of my pictures, or a screensaver - just something a little more entertaining for when I'm bored at work!
I did have a search of the forums, but couldn't see an immediate answer.
Many thanks in advance
Just get a live wallpaper from the market. I use one and its alright. Look..http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_u8NhYBGRVY
Thanks for that - but a live wall paper is not the solution - I have a very nice Galaxy livepaper, but the moment I plug it into my dock/charger, I get this:

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Is there anyway to change the setting for this?
Cheers
[ah... can't post links because I'm a noobie.. oh well...]
You can press the menu button on the bottom left of your device. That will bring up a menu and you can go into the setting and change things about the background. Cheers
That's excellent - just what I was after - thank you so much!
Hmmm... it shows my nice galaxy live wall paper for a bit, and then for some reason reverts back to the blue screen again - is there another setting somewhere?
Many thanks

So I was just playing with my phone when the screen was off and I found this feature accidentally. Without pressing any buttons, when I swipe up from bottom middle of the screen, the phone wakes up and goes directly to the Samsung Pay app. I thought it might be reading my fingerprints from home button to wake the device up. So I carefully just touched the screen to swipe up and it still wakes up the phone!!
Does this mean that we have double-tap-to-wake-up the phone feature just like the Motorola phones? I could not find any settings for this but this always works. I am not sure if it has any impacts on battery but i do not have a choice to turn it on or off anyway. I can consistently get this to work. Is these anything that I am missing here?
Note that i have No Screen Lock setup and enabled Samsung Pay.
This is a feature of the Samsung pay app itself. It allows you to pay with your phone very quickly.

Ok, I get that part, but this means that the hardware needs to support it as well to wake the phone just by the swiping the screen. So if the hardware supports it, other apps can leverage this and build similar features too to wake up the phone just like motorol tap to wake. Right?
Hi, as above. After updating this really annoying eyedropper icon that if pressed, changes the colour of everything on screen. Mostly It's just in the bleeping way.
What is it and how do I get rid of it?
Thanks,

Go to settings then the accessibility section then the text and display section the colour correction shortcut is what you need to turn off
that's the first thing/place I looked but upon further review and getting used to the new interface, the radio button is on a drop-down menu under CC and it says " colour correction shortcut lol "
I guess I was in such a hurry I missed it.
Thank you,
