Changing User Detection Settings

You can specify how sensitive the camera should be at detecting motion. If the

camera detects motion (for example, if you’re near the phone), your phone will

not initiate power-saving mode, even if an idle timeout has been reached.
If the camera detects motion, power-saving mode will terminate and the idle

screen will display. If the camera sensitivity is high (five or higher), the phone

will display the idle screen when you’re near the phone. If the camera

sensitivity is low (between one and four), you will have to wave your hand at

the camera for the idle screen to display. By default, camera sensitivity is set

higher during office hours. If you want, you can disable the user detection

feature altogether.

To change user detection settings:

1

Tap

>

Settings > Basic > Power Saving > User Detection.

From the User Detection screen, do the following:
For the Office Hours Sensitivity field, enter how sensitive you want

the camera to be while you’re in your office.
You can enter a number between 0 (no sensitivity) and 10 (high

sensitivity). The default sensitivity is 7.
If you set a sensitivity between 1 and 4, you will have to wave your

hand at the camera to exit power-saving mode. As well,

power-saving mode may be initiated when you’re in your office, but

not close to your phone. (If you enter 0, the user detection feature is

disabled and you will have to press a key on your phone to exit

power-saving mode.)

Tap Off Hours Sensitivity, and then enter how sensitive you want the

camera to be while you’re not in the office.
You can enter a number between 0 (no sensitivity) and 10 (high

sensitivity). The default sensitivity is 2.
If you set a sensitivity between 1 and 4, you will have to wave your

hand at the camera to exit power-saving mode. As well,

power-saving mode may be initiated when you’re in your office, but

not close to your phone. (If you enter 0, the user detection feature is

disabled and you will have to press a key on your phone to exit

power-saving mode.)

Tap the Save soft key.

Note

The camera will detect any source of motion in front of it, not just a person or people
nearby. For example, the camera will detect flying objects or rapidly-changing light
conditions. Therefore, even if you’re away from the phone, your phone may detect
other sources of motion, and won’t initiate power-saving mode.

In addition, since your phone’s camera detects motion, if you close the camera
shutter, point the camera at the ceiling, or set the camera sensitivity to 0, the phone
will not detect your presence (even if you’re nearby).
