Hello I just got the Nexus 6 tonight, rooted and installed TWRP now. Gonna install my first ROM now, just a stock tweaked ROM to start off with Franco kernel. Couple questions please;
- How do I enable Double Tap 2 Wake on the phone with the new ROM and Kernel ? For Franco does he have an app I need to download from the Play Store to active the D2TW ?
- And how do I enable the Notification LED ?

Most roms have double tap to wake enabled by default. For Franco, if you buy the paid app then there's a option to disable or enable double tap.
The paid app is called Franco kernel updater. The free version is for updating only.

I honestly have no idea, but having double tap to wake enabled doesn't cause any significant battery drain or at all.
Seeing that Google had the code already in the device but was disabled, I would have to say that it does? But I can't confirm. It would only make sense that the phone has the low power digitizer if Google was deciding to add double tap to wake but decided to have it disabled.

The code may just be there though. The code for ambient display is on the nexus 5 (hidden) but its an LCD. I wonder if this code is on the N5 too as that definitely doesn't have a low power digitiser mode.
Hmmm...
Could i make double TAP and led notifications without apps? I prefer to modify settings/files manually if possible.
There is a double tap mod. Led notifications, maybe ROM or kernel
Hi there,
If you're looking for enable double tap to wake after reboot (event secure boot is enabled), you can try this APP.
PS. I'm using stock kernel and systemless root.
Feature:
Enable/Disable double tap to wake on your phone
Enable double tap to wake after reboot (even secure boot up is enabled)
Google Play:
play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.blakey22.doubletapwake

Isn't this no different then long pressing finger scanner to wake which does the same thing when its set up

If its an app enabling the feature, i would assume it also takes a hit on battery life....
how are u guys noticing drain?

I don't notice any significant drain on battery. You're right in that it is similar to tapping the fingerprint sensor, however if I have it laying flat on a table and just want to quickly check time or notifications, this is a convenient way to do it

Works good for me. Especially when in the car when its in a car mount

Thanks, works great for me as well in those custom ROMs that don't have it enabled.
The app does indeed wake the screen up on my Nexus 6P but it wouldn't let me log in without entering the device password. Wouldn't let me go in with the fingerprint.
I'm on 6P running N with systemless root. Installed, opened app, enabled, and it immediately worked without a reboot or anything. Great work.
@blakey22 Two questions...
1) How come the screen doesn't turn on when you double tap the bottom or top portion of the screen?
2) Is the screen actually on when this app is enabled?

ElementalX kernel has several options for waking and putting the phone to sleep without an app. I use double tap to wake and sweep to sleep.

Yes it is but only with root and nova Launcher as far as I know. That's what I'm using right now

Yes, rooted is ok.. But if I can use new nexus launcher and mod to enable double tap to sleep, it would be awesome with Nexus 6P

If you are using Xposed and Gravitybox, it has an option to double tap the Statusbar to sleep.
Double tap to wake after reboot is not working anymore on Oreo 8.0.0
Would be awesome if this could be fixed.

I have never gotten them to work after flashing ElementalX. Do you have to enable them or something?

Yes, you either set the "Gestures" up during the initial setup in the Aroma installer (first time), or you can use flar2's kernel manager which is great. If you just blew through the initial setup and left the kernel defaults, I'm sure you can delete the Aroma settings file and then re-flash the kernel to get the options again. Better yet, try out EXKM.
cant get it to work, anyone successful with double tap to wake re-activate after nougat update?

With an app called Kernel Adiutor. On my rooted Nexus 6,
It worked first (and every) time for me, no tweaking required. Presumably all your other root apps are working ok?
may I ask how you enable double tap to wake on Nexus 6 on Nougat? thanks
No special action apart from pressing the "activate" button... It just works, normally 95% of the time, since I occasionally have to double-tap a couple of times.
got my Nexus 6 double tap to wake working with Kernel Adiutor (ROOT), is it a heavy app just for the double tap to wake?
any recommended app just for double tap to wake? that and notification led which I use lightflow (any better app for the job?)
they are the main reason I root my Nexus 6,
If you're rooted you shouldn't need Kernel Adiutor for Double Tap - mine works fine and I have no such kernel control apps. As I said, it's not 100%, and I read a long time ago that this is the reason that Google put the ability in the ROM but didn't activate it - they didn't want to frustrate users with what looked like a buggy app. Still, Sean's app works well enough for me, and it means that I'm relieving stress on the power button - Double Tap to wake, and Nova's swipe gesture to sleep, so I rarely need to touch the power button at all. Given the number of people complaining that their power button has stopped working, I reckon the less I use it the longer my N6 will last (touch wood... )
I use elemental kernel and it has an option for double tap to wake on install.
thanks for all comments.
looks like kernel adiutor consume much battery too,
any recommend alternative app for the job? hope there is an app for both double tap to wake and notification led (is lightflow the only choice? looks heavy too on batt)
tia
btw I use chainfire way to root, and has no plan to install custom recovery and custom kernel, prefer all stock, thanks
I bought Light Flow a year or so ago and it seemed to be a battery hog, so I uninstalled it. But given that I'd paid for it, just out of curiosity I tried it again a few months ago and it consumes very little. I put it down to advances in the programming, and I'm still using it happily today. As far as I know Light Flow on a rooted device is the only way to get the LED to activate as a notification.

You can use pixel launcher mod from xda but you need to be rooted to double tap to sleep
If you have the Always On Screen option turned on, you can double tap the screen at any time to wake it up. No app needed.

exactly, no use of this post... You don't need an app, only takes up storage
there is a way to change from "tap to wake" to "double tap to wake"????

You can install ex kernel and download ex kernel manager app from playstore. Then you'll have some gestures options attached in the picture.
You can also use any other kernel that supports flar's wake gestures and enable them in your kernel manager app.

That's a Nova Launcher option you're talking about for double tap to sleep.
