I installed a couple of apps for this, like Smart cover https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=smart.cover, and Proximity Smart Cover https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.danielling.proximitysmartcover . Basically I want when the proximity is covered (case closed), the screen goes off, and then goes on when it's uncovered. These 2 apps can do the 'wake' part alright (wake screen when the proximity is no longer covered) but they can't seem to turn off the screen when it's covered. I granted both admin permission. Here are some clues:
_ My proximity sensor is working alright (checked through hidden menu, and it does turn off the screen when proximity covered in-call)
_ Tap tap app can work (touch/wave 2x to lock, same to wake)
So any idea why those 2 app can't work? Thanks in advance.
I use Smart Screen on my Note II with the following settings:
Basic - everything blank (no ticks in the boxes}
Prox - Blank
Sensor - Blank
Start/Stop - Disable in landscape
This works for me and I have not noticed any battery drainage problems.
Please note: I have stock 4.1.2 and no lock screen enabled (my phone never leaves my sider.
This is not my ideal setup as the screen will immediately sleep if i hapren to accidently go to close. I need to pull down the notification menu at the far left or right of the screen. I have tried to play with the delayed reaction settingsand have had contact with the developer about the situation.
I am however happiest that as soon as i open my wallet case the phone is ready for use.
Quick and easy with one hand

Tried calibrating both in hidden menu and in app, but still there. But using another app, Smart screen off pro, fixed it. Guess it has to be with a different mechanism.
not proximity sensor
I have had the same problem on my 4X but the problem isn't the proximity sensor. I have tried various other apps including orientation and brightness locks. These haven't worked either, I have tried to change lock screen settings and screen time out but these haven't worked. Does anyone have any other suggestions or solutions to this problem?
I use "smart screen off pro" with no problems, all is working as expected....

what lock screen, brightness and permissions settings do you have on your phone other than what is changed within the app?

OK, I dont use a lock screen, never tested if its working...
My settings (checked):
Basic:
- Start on Boot
- Hide notification messages
Start/Stop
- Disable when in Landscape
- Enable only when in Launcher (not necessary, if u want it allways to turn screen off leave unchecked, I want Screen on in Apps, so I checked it)
Vibration:
- Vibrate when screen turned off
Thats all...
Hey, anybody here use Naptime and possibly want to share your experiences with it? Also which settings you've used? Thanks!
I still can't figure it out that after my screen locked for awhile, then my fingerprint sensor not working only until I press the power button.
Is there some way to disable the brightness change when unlocking? I read the faq in the App and it says it does it to fix auto brightness but since I dont use auto brightness at all I wish I could disable this effect

Don't disable motion detection and your fingerprint sensor will work fine.

I mean for light doze, deep doze ......

Thanks
Hello everyone,
I made a profile which enables AOD for about 10 seconds by waving/hovering over the display. AOD mode gets enabled and automatically disabled but the actual AOD doesn't show on the display.
I attached the profile in my post. Can anybody help?
That's because for the change to take effect the screen must be turned on and then off again. I'm facing the same issue and am honestly sad that nothing i do works... will let you know if i somehow fix it.
It's really weird that the function of NFC in my Xiaomi9 with a little problem. I did a screen recording and made a record show how NFC works in my Xiaomi9.

See that it keeps on-off after I turned it on. I can turn it off then the action of on-off stop.
Due to this reason, I give up flash PE even beastROM because it cannnot be turned on after I turned it off.
I have tried to flash different firmware+vendor file but it just doesn't work. None of them ...
Only MIUI10 can make me turn NFC off even it keeps on-off after turn it on...
Have you guys with similar problem as mine ?
I used this to make a tasker profile and works fine to turn off Nfc with screen off then back on with unlock screen: https://www.reddit.com/r/tasker/comments/bmigrs/turn_off_nfc_when_display_goes_off_and_only_turn/
Thanks !
Yes, I can do it by automate as well.
My key point is : Is it ROM's bug or my mi9's problem for NFC keeps showing ON and OFF(Or said " keep changing its state between enable and disable ")...
