Software update: FP4.SP21.B.048.20230215

Is there still anyone unfortunate with Android 11 on the phone? I’m talking to support about a behavior change, but I base it just on my gut feeling, so it would be nice to have some hard evidence :slight_smile:

What bothers me is that when the phone is in my pocket (i.e. proximity sensor says CLOSE and ambient light sensor says low values) and a notification is received, then the display shows the notification on black background (that’s the same), but on A12 it also activates the touchscreen. My gut feeling is that on A11, this black-background notification screen did not react to touches and I actually had to press the power button to interact with the phone (with the exception of incoming calls and alarm, of course). The easiest way to test this is lock the phone, send an SMS to the locked phone from another phone, and try to touch the screen. Now, take a piece of something non-conductive (e.g. cardboard) and lay it over the top 2cm of the phone so that the proximity and lighting sensors are covered. Repeat the thing with SMS and trying to touch-interact.

I’d be really glad if anyone still on A11 could help me with recording a video (or just telling me my gut feeling is wrong and the touchscreen activated also on A11).

The problem I have with this behavior is that once or twice a day I pull the phone from my pocket with lots of numbers typed to the emergency calling screen. I can’t find any other explanation than this unwanted activation of the touchscreen.

The support told me to disable waking the screen for notifications, which could help, but I want to retain this visual part. I just want to get rid of the interaction part of it.

Thanks!
