I got a G6 on sale from Verizon. I've had it for about a week, and am pretty happy with it.
I have configured "always on" with the default (pretty small) font, my name, etc. Works fine.
I just bought an aftermarket case with a magnetic latch and a window for the always-on data to display through.
The good news: When I open and close the case, the phone automatically wakes and sleeps.
The bad news: When I close the case, the display through the window is completely different than the other "always on" (big super-bright time and date), and after about 5 seconds, it fades to black. Now I am carrying a phone with a window with nothing in it! Tapping, etc, does not wake the display.
So, where is this alternate "always on" screen coming from? Can I configure it, or get rid of it in favor of the always-on that I can control? And what is the point of a display through a window that only stays on for 5 seconds?
I know -- modern problems.
