[Q] Pocked mode - screen turns on while removing phone from pocket ONLY if notificati - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys,
In desperately looking for an app or mod that does what's in the subject.
I'd like to have my s3 screen on when i remove it from my pocket but ONLY if notifications are present.
This is a feature that some custom ROMs have (e.g. C-rom) but i wonder if i can get the same behaviour on my stock rooted s3.
I know that apps like "gravity screen" do something similar but in don't think they can turn on only inc ase of pending notifications.
Thank you for any advice.

Android userscreen in fullscreen ??

Hi all,
I've expierenced something new, after using my phone for quite alot of hours i realised few minutes ago that my information bar is missing. This information (above) is only visible on the lock screen but not on the UI.
I like this very much and i love the ability to work in fullscreen mode.
Perhaps i activated this by accidentily pressing some buttons.
I've made this topic so that the experts on here can inform me what i exactly did and how i can do it again (turn on this feature) in the future.
Its pleasent to work in fullscreen mode.

I only ever came close to a similar situation when I was trying to change some image files in framework-res.apk. Have you tried to apply a theme/mod recently?

[Q] Disable backlit keys on CM7

I moved from Stock 2.3.4 samsung rom to Cyanogenmod 7 (stable).
I have one problem though, I cant seem to disable the keylights of the two buttons, one on either side of the home button. It is annoying as hell when I use my phone in a dark room.
Can anyone help me?
No one knows?
PS.
I think I am gonna move to MIUI ROM, this still has many bugs ... Get a lot of FC on random apps.
Is there not an option in CM7? On stock its in Settings>Display>Touch key light duration.

Nope, I looked for it 1st. Could not find it.

there is an app called "Screen filter" it's ad free and free - it is exactly what you are looking for, and it operates via a widget... you can put a dark filter on your screen to make the screen very dark, and you have the option to disable the button back lights too... you can create several widgets with whatever level of darkness you desire... I couldn't use my phone at night without it!!
You glorious bastard! I've been searching all over for a solution to this problem!
Accept my deepest thanks.

[Q] (Q) How to keep the screen on while charging?

Hi everybody. I am using the S3 in the car, and I want the screen always on. On my S2 there was an option even in stock roms, to keep awake while charging in the developer options, but not in S3.
Is there anyway to do this? I am rooted. A 3d party application maybe?
Thanks in advance.

Try the Screen Timeout Toggle widget from the Google store.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S3 - Jelly Bean Update - Vibrate on Screen Tap

Hey guys,
First up apologies if I'm breaking any rules but I'm new to this. Anyway, I have an international unlocked version of the S3 and I just got my Jelly Bean update today. While everything seems to be working fine, I've encountered two problems. Firstly, whenever I visit the stock e-mail app the screen seems to go dim very drastically (im on auto-brightness) and I don't remember it being like this during ICS.
Secondly, I've seem to lost my "Vibrate on Screen Tap" option. Which means while I still have my ripple effect available for my lockscreen, I no longer have the vibration to go with it which is something I grew quite fond of. So I was wondering if these are problems specific to my mobile or everybody as well?
I wondered about the exact same thing until I decided to go through all the menu options and discovered that the phone had put itself in power saving mode. Disabled that and screen vibrate is back again

Yea I faced the issues as well. Dsicovered that once you disabled powersaving mode, when you access the email app, it won't dim anymore. Hope Samsung will fix this issue in the next update.

[Q] UltimaRom 4.0 - Display being toggle'd on when turning it off

Hi all,
I've recently flashed my GS3 to UltimaRom 4.0. (Very nice Rom btw)
I have no complaints, other than this one small thingy. (don't know if it's a known issue or not but a search didn't reveal anything)
When I press the 'power' button to turn off the display and to put away my phone, it sometimes keeps turning the display on.
Pressing the power button turns it off and immediately turns it back on.
I have to unlock the phone first before I can lock it again and the display stays disabled.
It's not a big deal but annoying if you just want to check something fast and the screen keeps popping up.
Is there any known fix for this? Or am I just forgetting something configuration wise?
Thx for any advise.
No issue here. Maybe one of your apps is causing this.

Same here
I've got the same problem, I've not managed to nail it down to a single rogue app yet that may or may not be causing the issue. I'm running Omega v28 Jelly Bean, so I presume this isn't something wrong in either ROM, just an app like Arsaw says.
It could be:
The CRT bug (fixed in 5.1)
or
Something waking your screen a rogue app, or perhaps something asking for permissions and waking to do that (I had that once).
I'll place money on it being the CRT bug, though
Update to 4.1. There's lots of new features
So it was a bug, I had that too at 4.0 but I didn't pay much attention to it.
Quite late reply, but only had yesterday the chance to flash v4.1 i havent had the issue yet.
So it was probably indeed the problem mentioned above.
Thanks for you help!
