Is there an API which can disable events from magnet sensor ? If there no way to disable magnet sensor events then is there a plan to provide such an API in the future ?
Reason is I have Samsung Tab S2(sm-t810) which when placed near speaker with powerful magnet, as soon as the tablet is close to these speakers tabley automatically turns off the screen. I colud find any option in settings to disable this. Through adb logcat command I found the sensor events are generated by Android in sm-t810 tablet whenever it kept near the speaker and when it move away from speaker Tablet automatically turns ON the screen ( through a coverManager service). This seems to magnet sensor to detect closure of tablet cover/case. Unfortunately there is no way to disable the events from magnet sensor or ignore the events. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
