When I pick the phone or move it the screen turns on. It is annoying. Is there a way to only turn on screen by pressing power button? Please help.
Go to settings->smart convenience->gesture & motion and turn off Raise to Turn On Screen
I have already done that. But the screen still wakes up without any notification or pressing power button.

Mine too
Disabling Auto Screen-On
Go to Fingerprint Settings under "Fingerprint, Face & Passwords" Section and Turn Off " Display the Fingerprint Icon when Screen is Off" option.
Faced the same issue, switching that off in Settings doesn't help!

Hi
My phone does not turn off the screen while charging. If I turn it off by pressing the power button, it turns back on after a while. I can't find the option of stay awake in the development setting. Screen timer is also set.Wi-Fi sleep is never, but have tried the others as well.
Any idea?
Factory reset.

Hello
This is my second day using the Gear S I set the screen to be Always On, as it is more comfortable, but I noticed that every accidental touch on the screen will wake the watch up :cyclops:
is there any way that I activate the screen using the power button only?
thank you all

You can't have both. If you want to do what you're describing go into style and shut off clock always on. Then go into motion and uncheck wake up gesture.
Your watch will now only turn on the screen if you touch the power button.

isn't this something we can come around by rooting?
I mean aren't there any workarounds?:crying:
still searching and reading
I am looking for the same solution - I want the screen to always show a high battery efficient clock and only show the main watch face when I press the home button or activate the screen by doing the wake up gesture(as Sony's SW2 does...)
I came to Samsung from HTC and one of the inconveniences I am having with the s9+ is turning the screen off. Of course I can turn screen off with the power button, but I prefer to turn off by a double press or a long press. Since I could not find a way of doing those I tried to use an app to turn screen off. The app works well in turning off screen, but the problem is after turning screen off, I cannot unlock the phone with the fingerprint scanner or any of the other unlocking sensors. I can only unlock with PIN if I turn off screen with the app. This is the app that I have been using. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.katecca.screenofflock&hl=en
Appreciate if anyone can help me find a way around for this problem of fingerprint and other sensors not working after screen off with an app.
It's a security measure.. I suggest using this:

There's a lock button that won't disable the finger print and stuff. Hope this helps
I use an app named screen off. It puts a button on your home screen to shut it off. Then just double tap the home button to turn it back on.

Thanks. I tried that and it works without disabling the fingerprint and other sensors. Only thing is it takes two touches to turn off the screen.
Take a look at Lock Screen Pro, it has an option in its settings that will allow fingerprint and iris scanner to work after locking with an app symbol you added to your homescreen. If you use bxActions you can also lock your device with the bixby button!
Use Nova Launcher, better than Touchwiz and has a setting built in for double tap screen off, no problems here with finger print sensor. No need for secondary app.
Long-press on home button
Try a long-press on the home button. A long-press turns on and off the Samsung S9+.
I knew of its function to light the screen, but was unaware that it would close the display.
Greenify is installed on my phone, and a message appears, stating that Greenify is still working, and that I can press the power button, if I want to stop it, then the screen is off.
can you guys help me out... please try to replroduce the following....... put your screen off... cov3r the notch or topside of the screen and turn on the screen by power button...... and whatch the notification that comes...... wtf? is that a failsafe for when the phone is in your pocket and buttons are pressed
its in the settings, you can keep it on or off. it stops the touch screen for being activated in your pocket etc especially with the pick to wake up feature. Setting>smart assistance> mistouch prevention
Hi,
Hoping someone can help.
I've got a Samsung Galaxy Note 10+.
Since yesterday I've noticed that the screen will randomly turn itself on if I turn it off at the lock screen manually.
For example, the phone is at the home screen - I press the on/off button - the screen stays off.
I press the on/off button (to check the time for example) and I'm presented with the lockscreen (no security) - I then press the on/off button again to turn it off - 1 second later the screen turns on, shows me my home page wallpaper then flicks to my locks reen then turns off.
And it will continue to do this unless I go to my home screen and turn it off from there.
Not sure HOW or WHY its doing this.
Haven't installed anything recently...
One thing I have noticed is that this will only happen if the lockscreen is set to SWIPE (No security) - It doesn't do this if I set a PIN for example.
And suggestions would be appreciated
Cheers people.
