Clicking sound on Screen off #19

Open Bingblop opened 1 year ago

Bingblop commented 1 year ago

For some reason, when GW4 Remap is enabled, the watch makes a clicking sound on screen off. Turning media volume all the way mute is one way to ignore it. Is this caused by GW4remap or the Galaxy Watch hardware when accessibility apps are enabled?

This is actually common among everybody using GW4remap

No way this is caused by GW4 remap? Honestly I thought I was going mad for a bit. It all started after the last "big" OS update from Samsung a couple of months ago. I found the same with the media volume fix.

I can confirm removing GW4 Remap fixes the issue, it must be a new bug "feature" that Samsung introduced as usual.

If you turn the media volume to about half, you won't hear it.

Been more than half a year so I guess we won't get a fix

Pretty sure this app has been abandoned lol.

I don't really think there necessarily is a fix to be had. My understanding is that Wear OS plays this sound when locking when there is an accessibility service activate. I don't know why, but it's not up to the app developer.

I'll never get arguments like these.

This is an app/mod whose entire purpose is changing the way the stock OS runs.

So it makes sense that it would modify whatever is making the sound.

@devanteweary No offence, but that's simply because you don't know how this app works.

Could you do it with function hooking using something like Xposed etc.? Sure. Is that even close to how this app works? No.

If you manage to do it using the Accessibility API, it would be really hacky.
