Does someone know how one can get this screen (attachment). I don't like it, but it is often their when I take my phone out of my pocket. I then have first to press the back-button before I can unlock the phone. I seem not to be able to reproduce what is happening in my pocket.
Btw, I use Always on display, to show always.

Double tap on lockscreen clock. ?
P.S = I assume that 'double tap to wake display' option is enabled on your phone, this explain because the situation that you has described was occurred.

Ah, yes, thanks, now I can reproduce it! A single tap does it already. Any trick to turn this of?

Hi! I know there's a trick that holding the Power button when the keyboard pops up and quickly pressing Back does it sometimes, but I often get stuck on Landscape and it won't go back to Portrait. Is there a way to assign a button to rotate the screen, or an app/widget to mess w. the internal coding to do the same function? I know Windows Mobile allows for hardware buttons to switch screen... Thanks!

top power: short press = turn on power, wake screen, menu. 1-second long press = toggle keyboard. 2-second long press = toggle portrait/landscape orientation

is there any chance to have the feature that new LG devices have (double tap on off screen to wake) on this device?
or it needs some hardware?

screen on is working but not usable. with this app running a black (blank) activity opens on turning the screen on in my phone.
maybe they fix in later releases. its beta version.

That is because there is no support in kernel to tap while screen is off.

knockr has no problem turning on the screen. it turns off screen by making every pixel black (On AMOLED) so it can respond to double tap.
but when i double tap the screen turns on for a moment and then a blank(black) activity comes up so i have to press home button to close it.
i think that's a bug because knockr is a new beta app.
but yes i think full support like LG's need kernel support. maybe maclaw can make us a compatible kernel
Hi,
My P7 does not have lock screen, instead of this, loads an annoying app called P7 (which comes with stock ROM).
Any of you have an idea to enable lock screen? In settings->security->lock screen, option appears in grey and it is unselectable
I have updated to B126 to check if there was an issue with my stock rom, but it is the same.
Thank you

I'll take a guess here that you have the default magazine slideshow lock.
Go into the theme app and click customize them you can change the lockscreen style to one that allows widgets etc.
It took me a little to figure it out also when I got my phone.

No, i dont have any lock screen. When i press power off button to go to lockscreen, by default, the P7 app appears with a lot of spam about huawei. If i disable this app by settings->applications->p7->disable, when i press power button, screen goes black and when i press again, instead of see the typical lock screen, i see the desktop directly

Please take a screenshot of what you mean.
This was already discussed before, use the search button next time.
Your phone is in demo mode, used for demostration in shops.
Try method post #20 first, if it doesn't work do the steps in post #18.

Double tap to wake screen? Think LG were first to introduce this.i rembere there were some apps on play store just to do that. Some gesture apps might have that feature.
But Note 8 has alternatives. You can wake up with on screen vibrating button and you can change sensitivity. Also using AOD it has sift button to double tap.

I hard press the home button and boom it gets me direct to the home screen.

Yes
Hard press home is a much better alternative, at least in my opinion to double tap anyway.
Just press where the home button should be (even if you can't see it) as if it was a physical button, the phone will vibrate as if you have pressed a proper button and it will turn on, or go home.

out of curiosity, why would a hard press be better than double tap?

I also use long press home on s8+
The big advantage is the prevention of accidental taps since the area to tap is much smaller than the whole or half the screen area

I miss it too.... And ambient display.... It saves more juice for the battery
https://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s8+/themes/mods-small-collection-tweaks-t3657119
These are from the S8+ forum. Haven't tried the double tap. Remove battery icon, carrier hider, and remove unlock text works.
Ok, so I guess they work except for the nav bar stuff. And reboot after installation of mod
The only thing with double tap to wake or hard press the home button is you still have your security feature after that. I find it easier just to hit my fingerprint. But I use Nova for double tap to sleep.

Hmm. Yes. Sometimes just to see the notifications I do not want to hit the power button.
You can double tap the Active Display home button. It will take a HARD press or a double tap. It doesn't use the whole screen, but I like the double tap better.
Anyone know how to combine the "lockscreen" with the "pattern"... basically have the pattern always display (and hidden)? It seemed to be an option on previous devices.
I just want to turn on my screen and swipe in my pattern. Right now, the minimalist lockscreen (while pretty), requires an EXTRA unneeded swipe before pulling up the pattern view.
There are too many taps/swipes going on just to get to the desktop. May seem trivial but I'm on my phone a lot for work so I am trying to save as much time as possible.

I use the "press screen" option with the Iris recognition and works flawless. Is fast and secure. Should give a try
Yea I've experimented with that. The picture it took of my eyes was blurry af, so I don't even know how it would work. It is pretty fast though, but the point is I don't want to really pick up my phone every second. Again, I work from home and in remote Support. I typically am remoted into a couple sites and use my phone for my dedicated email screen. So every few seconds I have to unlock.
I just feel like the Active Display is a good lockscreen already. Maybe I'll just remove the "lockscreen" altogether since it just adds a bunch of extra unneeded steps. What I want is just an Active Display > Hard Press or Double Tap > Pin or Pattern. The extra lockscreen is useless.

What is active display? You mean the always on display (aod)?
Anyways I think the phone does what you are asking.. with my phone on the desk I push down on the home button and it goes from the aod to the pattern in one press of the virtual home button. Then I swipe in my pattern.
You can also lower the pressure needed for the home button

In Display > Navigation bar options, there is an option for Hard press bypass the lockscreen. It was turned off in my phone. Someone in another thread clued me in.
That works as requested. It was just in a weird place. That option should be in lockscreen, since it directly references actions with the lockscreen.

I mean it affects every aspect of the UI, so I could also see the location of it argued the other way. Guess that's why we have a search bar in settings.
Hey ppl
Anyone noticed this ugly button?
I press it several times by accident. The only way to deal with is to enable the navigation bar (the button will then be displayed inside of it).
Is there a wax to remove it completely?
Thanks

I personally love that button I believe this is a Pie feature, it lets you rotate your phone on command instead of it automatically rotating. To turn that off simply make sure Auto Rotate is turned on in the Quick Settings toggles.
yeah but i dont want autorotate at all. i hate it even^^
I don't have this button and I'm actually interested
What do you set on to have it?

Turn off auto rotate, and Pie will show it whenever it detects your phone has rotated.

That tiny little unobtrusive button only appears when you have auto rotate turned off AND you rotate your phone. It should not appear during normal use. And it goes away after a few seconds if you don't press it.

I understand what you're asking. But it's not possible. And again the button goes away after a few seconds.
Root and install something other than One UI. Although saying that, I don't remember seeing this rotate button while running several of the different custom One UI roms, can double check if you want.

Maybe you've figured this out already but from the notification panel of you click on the word "Portrait" under the auto-rotate icon it'll bring to additional settings an be you can turn it off from there
