Hi, since double tap to wake works like a charm but its frustrating me about turning screen off, we still need to use that power on button which has bad feeling in comparison of older xperia
Nova launcher has a double tap system for screen off
Anyone has an app/mod that allows a double tap/simple tap to put screen off?
Thanks

if you are not rooted and don't mind having an icon on the homescreen try this here on the play store JB Lock Now
if you are rooted you can try this xposed module http://forum.xda-developers.com/xposed/modules/mod-doubletaptosleep-v1-0-t2667177]
Thanks for these apps but i dont want physical icons, its annoying to put it on each menu
That one within navbar, great idea, i gonna try it :fingers-crossed:

You don't need icons for the 2 I mentioned. They work as shortcuts with Nova gestures, 1tap, 2tap or whatever you prefer. Just give them a try.
i use greenify in combination with nova gestures

I use screen off and assign it to double tap with Nova (need to have paid nova though)

i use greenify hibernation shortcut ..... which is swype upward from home button to see "whats new" and "google search" .... swype towards "google search" and select "hibernate + lock screen" (always).
this is best according to me .... cause u dnt need to be on home screen always .... it can be done from any screen !!
obviously u need greenify installed

Thanks, tested and i approve this method :good:
Xperia Xposed (KK) >> Xperia Home >> Desktop >> Double Tap Gesture >> Lock Screen
It does work with stock home launcher only!
Not too sure if it works on the Z3, but on my HTC i have installed a app called all in one gestures, which allows me to double tap the top notification bar, and the screen knocks itself off.
I am sure you can customize it the way you want it, hopefully it will work on the Z3, as i have just bought one myself.
Oh thanks great found, gonna try it :good:
Gravity Box has this option. I have it on long press of recent apps. Makes it available from everywhere. You could also use Greenify's screen off through Gravity Box and assign it to a long press or create an extra navigation item and have it there; tap, double tap, long press.
No root method
I am using a clear home screen widget from this app. Just add to homescreen and resize.
Works like a charm.
Ummm ok new user , so just search google play for DTSO.
I use Nova Launcher Prime and "Screen off and lock"
Use the app Soft Lockscreen from the play store. Just keep the app icon anywhere on the homescreen

is there anyway to make greenify shortcut to work on lockscreen of lollipop, either by replacing camera icon or phone icon, ?
just use gravity screen. it saves me the use of any buttons and no xposed is required.
Hi
P9 plus has Double tap to wake feature ?
no
no, there isn't double tap to wake the screen.
Disappointed !
huawei should pay attention to this feature.
I dont have to rise up the mobile each minute if its on table to use back fingerprint sensor access
u can just push powerbutton on the side.
Even in double tap to wake you have to go through the password/finger print.
You can install "Glance Plus" on playstore for always on feature.
this is why i think LG's knock code is genius -- it's an alternative to the traditional PIN lock or pattern lock, and it's great for when the phone is lying on a table (meaning fingerprint sensor is inaccessible). Tap code lets you unlock phone with a sequence of taps anywhere on the screen, and because you begin tapping with screen off, and you don't really have to look at the screen when you tap, etc, I find that tap code lets me unlock a full second or more than unlocking with PIN.
of course, for phones with fingerprint sensor on the front, this wouldn't be necessary, but i wish all phones with rear fingerprint sensor would steal this feature.
Probably copy right issues involved in getting lg style unclock.
I tried the "KnockOn" app on google play. Working fine so far, although ofcourse will have to still go through the password screen. Have to enable all permissions and also allow app from accessibility settings.
You can make the autolock for 5 or 10 min so you don't need to unlock it with password in this period of time just double tape .
Get the point !
Question: is it true that "knuckle gestures" work when the screen is off, too?
This feature could well overtake the double tap deal in my humble opinion.
I just want double tam my home scree to sleep my phone, without any apps (they are bull****, i have a rooted phone i can do it by my own, but I don't know how)
Any suggestions?
LineageOS 14.1-20180113
Android 7.1.2
up
You can use key control.. For example you must set double tap for home key to screen off

I can't do it in LineageOs 15.1
You can do it with Nova Launcher. Settings-Gesture-Double tap-Screen off
There are various launchers that let you do this.
Eg Nova Launcher Prime and ZenUI launcher
Launchers are just bull****
The stock ROM allows this feature ... and on custom rom So far only seen Nova with this feature
i can add double tap screen on in my honor play ?? i need it
Already a post about this.

Hello!
My cousin has bought a brand new Sony XZ3.
She was used to use a screen off app. Simply press and the screen go off.
Now is not possible to use, because when the screen goes off, at the next screen on the fingerprint doesn't work, is required to insert the pin code.
It is an Android 9 limitation or is there an app that can screen off and use fingerprint at next screen on?
Thank you
If you install nova launcher, you can configure it so that with a double touch on the screen, it turns off and then you can turn it on with the fingerprint.

You can use Fluid Navigation Gestures and map one of the gesture to a "turn off lock screen" action as Nova as mentioned above will only achieve that from the home screen as opposed from anywhere with FNG ?
