Anyone have Gravity Screen - On/Off working on the G4?

[Almighty1]

I have the Verizon LG G4 vs986 running 5.1 (10b) but I've been unable to get Gravity Screen - On/Off 2.3.1 to work as it's not turning the screen off. Does anyone have this working on the G4 and can you share your settings? Thanks!

Been using it since the beginning (and G3 as well). After removing Power Nap Alpha 0.7 working flawless. Have you enabled Administrative Permissions?

 

[Almighty1]

Yes, enabled that. Can you let me know how you have the settings for the program setup? I was able to get the screen to go off once when I first installed it but never could get the screen to turn on and I have the PIN enabled lock screen.

On
Any Direction = Check
Lying Face up= Check
Turn off by proximity = Check
Turn on by proximity = Check
Keep screen on by Motion = Check (sensitivity 70)
Booster = Check
Running During Call = Check
Notification = Check
Low Priority = Check
Start at boot = Check

I have the unlocked version so I also have some apps whitlisted

Device Administrator = Check (for both delayed lock and regular screen off permission, 2 separate)

All the rest I have UNCHECKED

Thanks! Think you covered everything except what do you have for the following settings:

Pocket Sensor Angle
Landscape mode

Table Sensor Angle
Turn Screen ON by Motion-Timeout
Turn Screen ON by Motion-Sensitivity
False Turn-On Protection in Pocket

It seems my screen is turning off because of the 15 second display timeout in the phone settings and not because of Gravity, what do you have for the phone's display timeout settings? I changed it to always keep display on and the screen does go off, but doesn't turn on until I tap the screen.

Is the screen supposed to turn on by itself or does one have to tap the screen?

Pocket sensor = 60 (default I think, it becomes inactive with Any direction checked)
Landscape mode = Unchecked
Table sensor angle = 2
Turn on by motion = Unchecked
Keep On by motion sensitivity = 70

I don't have a false turn on protection in pocket option

Screen timeout = 15 seconds

On my device T Mo G4 H811 no tapping of screen required, all screen on and off functions are performed by Gravity (every now and then it doesn't read the proximity sensor, but 99% of the time it functions as it should).

The default setting should have gotten you working, all these setting are more of a fine tuning to your liking rather than actual functionality of the app itself. Have you tried uninstalling, reboot and reinstalling? Proximity sensor working? Not sure what else you can do other than contact the developer. I had and issue a couple versions ago and it was addressed fairly quickly with an update (I'm sure I wasn't the only one in that case).
Hope this helps you out.

I think once you select Any Direction (Flip Cover), the angles for both Pocket Sensor and Table Sensor becomes inactive, Turn Screen OFF by Proximity becomes inactive as well. I actually figured out the problem as it was the app that was turning the screen off but I am running Power Nap as well which puts the phone in deep sleep mode so I had to add GS to the exclude list in Power Nap before GS worked correctly and turned the screen back on. I already tried uninstalling from the app, rebooting and installing earlier but the problem was Power Nap. I have the unlocked version and it does have the false turn on protection option which is the last option under the Turn Screen ON by Motion section.

Yeah... Power Nap. Loved it on the G3 but on this phone it still has some issues. I stopped using it because even though I whitelisted certain apps some of those whitelisted apps actually weren't being allowed to remain active. Gravity wasn't one of them but Root call blocker was and boy was that a treat at times.
Glad you got it worked out.

Interesting, how do you check if the app is active or not since the screen is off?

Trial and error... Root Call Blocker worked fine (whitelisted) when the screen was on but failed to work when screen off. What turns off my apps when screen off? Power Nap. Disable Power Nap and Root Call Blocker worked fine (screen on and off). So my conclusion was Power Nap even though whitelisted Root Call Blocker was failing to leave that app active.

Interesting, in my case, Powernap didn't put any app to sleep as before yesterday, my battery would last 2-2.5 hours with the screen off then I started greenifying everything except those I know that needs to run in the background and now the battery lasts 9 hours with Gravity Screen. I left White Pages ID without greenifying it.
