I recently got the S21 Ultra, coming from a Huawei P20 Pro. On my previous phone I was able to setup a schedule for auto power on/off, but can't seem to find anything remotely like that on my new S21 Ultra. Only option I can see is auto restart.
Is there any way to schedule the phone to auto power on?
Nope

On my Galaxy S8+, I could double-press on the power button from anywhere (even whilst locked).
Is something similar possible on the P30 Pro?
Double press volume down can be set to take a photo or launch the camera app, but only when the screen is off, so its a little different, and you still need a real shortcut if you want to start if the display is on.
Hi.
I have the following problem when watching long videos such as films, sports etc. on my p30 pro.
Other phones have a feature where they can tell that you are looking at the screen and while you are looking the screen will remain on, however the p30 pro doesn't seem to have this as far as I can tell. At least I am unable to find it if it does.
The maximum setting for the screen timout is 10 minutes. So, if I am watching a long video I actually have to touch the screen every 10 minutes to stop it from turning off!
This is going to get pretty annoying if I can't find a fix.
Is there something I am missing here or does anyone have a workaround?
Thanks in advance.

Try removing the video player you're using from battery management so it doesn't get put to sleep, maybe that will prevent screen timeout
Does your battery saver settings are off?
Settings-Battery-saving mode off (all)
When they are activated there is a leaf in the battery icon.
When it is activated, my screen turns off also automatically while playing games or others and not touching the screen for a while
I got my S21 Ultra (AT&T variant) a few months ago and noticed a strange behavior. some of my apps will force my phone screen on for some reason and I don't know if there's a setting to prevent that from happening. The 2 main ones that I know for sure that does this is the Amcrest Smart Home app and the older Amcrest View Pro app (I have both apps because I have older cameras that doesn't seem to want to connect to the newer Smart Home app)
Is there anything I can do to stop these apps from waking up the screen whenever it sends a motion detection notification? It's caused me to accidentally press random parts of the screen w/ my leg a few times.
Thanks!
Hi all, my p30 pro, when the screen is woken up in the bright sun, it goes to max brightness. However after about 30 seconds the screen dials back the brightness to about 75%, and even if it manually move it back to 100%, the screen doesn't get any brighter. I have tried all the setting regarding the display, manual, auto, vivid etc. I have factory reset the phone as well. Any thoughts or ideas please?

Unfortunately no, I am still using it. But it is almost unusable under sunlight. Was hoping a software update fixed it, but no luck.
I forgot to ask what software version are you on and when the problems started.I have a mic problem too and I already changed the mic but although it's a bit better it's still not usable as before.
I am on emui 12. Can't remember when it started.
any solutions? on the newest version of the software my display doen not adjust automatically to the light outside. I do not even have this option. When I try to restore to the previous version by the hi suite I get a message that I have a problem with my Internet. I dont know if it worked on the previous one . I got it and installed the newest version. Any ideas?
My Huawei P40 turns on display if email/whatsapp/sms/telegram message comes in, so I can see content without touching phone while driving. Can s23 do that as well? My ex S22 Ultra couldn`t do that, so I sold it.
Nope, the S23 can't do that either. I didn't know that before, too, and its a bit disappointing.
Pathetic

What about using something like Aod notify, only stays on screen for 20 secs initially but you can tap to see if you miss the notification, and I'm sure you can keep the notification for a specified time.
