Well, it works the same as lollipop, what are you expecting? Maybe tap to wake? That doesn't seem to be enabled, and there is no option. No big deal though, lift to wake works, just tap on the edge and it wakes up.

I was expecting unicorns and rainbows.
By 'enable' I mean working. It's not working for me at all. It doesn't even show in the settings. Hence the question.

Motorola cancelled the ambient display mode in 6.0. You can just use moto display in moto app. I have tried an ambient mode enabler in xposed but it doesnt work. I know the most guys like moto display more but for me ambient display is perfect.....

Thanks, I wasn't aware Motorola removed it. I'm in the same boat, I prefer AD over moto display.

So there's still no option to have it lift to wake to the standard Android lock screen - only lift to wake to the Moto Display lock screen?

Not that I can find no. I would prefer it go straight to my pin entry screen. The slider is a redundant extra step.

Seems to be unfortunately.

maybe you guys can give this a try: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.achep.acdisplay
Real bummer that motorola removed it... I do use the moto display but I like to have options =)

I used to use AcDisplay on KitKat. It's a great notification screen and I even think it's better than the stock Motorola. I like ambient display just because of how it smoothly fades to the lockscreen. Sad that Motorola removed it but I'm sure we'll see it in some CM builds in a little bit.

Its a mess it seems they really delete it not just deactivate. Otherwise the exposed mod should work

Shame. I'm not sure, but I think it taps into using a movement sensor in a really low-power mode, that other apps can't emulate

But it still lite up ambient display for a sec when whatsapp notification (if moto display is off)
Anybody help to make AD work for us?

Just rename MotoDisplay_3.0.apk in /system/priv-app, restart and you're good to go.
By the way, the AD settings just returned to the Settings>Display after this.

Rename to what? This has me intrigued!

Just put a .bak in front of the .apk, in case you want the original Motorola screen back.

[HOWTO] Disable double tap to wake/unlock LG G3

Hello folks! For those who want to disable the option "double tap to wake/unlock" on LG g3 for any reason, in my situation the phone ever got the screen on when I accidentally tap the screen, that was draining my battery, now I found an app that can disable this option. It's called "Any Cut" you can find it in play store for free, create a shortcut for the "Knock On" apk and there you can disable this option. (But it still working if you use knock code to unlock).
Why not use a knock code. 4 knocks to unlock, my phone never comes on by itself not once.

I love knock code but in my case is kind of annoying. Ever a accidentally touch the screen, it comes on. Also using knock code when I take it out of my pocket it's asking me for recovery password.This is for those who want to disable this. Like me.

for me this works only for double tap to sleep. the double tap to wake still remains on and it doesn't help me to much.
also i use a quick circle case and it constantly wakes in my pocket and i really want to deactivate this and i don't know how

normally i use knock code unlock but i tried also your method. the problem is when i use the quickcircle case. if the case is opened, the double tap feature is disabled for both turning on and turning off the phone. if the flip is closed, i can still turn on the phone with double tap.
i am desperate to solve this. my battery is killing me due to this

Well, I think the problem is with the quick circle case, it works with a magnetic point that auto-activate the double tap to unlock. It's the same case as if you use knock code, double tap activate itself and for now I haven't found a solution if you are using the circle case. But even you don't double tap the circle the screen turns on?

It depends in which LG g3 variant are you using. For example; I'm using LG g3 from sprint and my hidden menu isn't very helpful at all. Only show few options...

Try the app gravity screen. I used it on my s4 when I was having the same issue you are. It helped big-time.
you're an angel!!!
My bf was going nuts over this and I cant seem to find a solution until now. He's so annoyed that he was willing to downgrade to any phone the very next day after getting it. Lol. I've tried the hidden menu but only showed me 3 (Verizon). Thanks!!
I on the other hand will keep the knock on enabled on my M8. ??

Double tap to sleep?

It works fine when I use one of lg's launchers. Using nova launcher it does not work. I can force it to work, or I can use greenify to hibernate and lock screen but both methods require device admin privileges. No biggie, but then you're forced to use patter unlock, and I would venture whatever other method you use as back to the fingerprint scanner. I am using pattern. It requires I use it because I gave those two other methods to lock phone development admin privileges thus making fingerprint scanner a lot less useful. It wakes phone but I have to use pattern like I would if I rebooted. Anybody using nova having same problems or found a workaround? Bugging the hell out of me as I finally have a nice finger scanner, coming from the note4 and it was almost useless with a case on, and I love unlocking my phone as I take it out of my pocket. If others using nova are having same problem let's brainstorm and figure this out. It is nice double tapping to lock phone also.
Double tap the notification bar works anywhere.

I already covered this in another thread - it's a known issue since Android 6. In 6 there was a workaround but with 7, there has been changes and the workaround doesn't work.
I spoke with Nova and there is a root workaround for it but we don't have root yet.

It's a PITA and will take some getting used to. I had the LG G3 and the OPPO Find 7 which both had dttw. But with nova you have to hit the tiny notification bar, which as someone said will take some practice. Just make sure you have it turned on in nova's settings.

Double tap for ambient display?

Is it possible to double tap the device's screen when it's off for the ambient display?
The pick up gesture doesn't always work, and I would rather have it be a action I can do to make it ALWAYS work.
Thanks in advance.
My understanding is that double tap to wake is a hardware requirement (that the 6p doesn't meet). But if you use your first to 'tap it' hard enough you should trigger the gyroscope to wake it

Nexus 6p has double tap to wake feature build in but you have to have root go activate it. I use it all the time and always works so I think it's not a hardware feature, someone just has to port it over or something

I'm using it too, but I did think it would be great if it worked like double-tap-to-ambient-display. That is, doesn't wake it fully just do the same like when lifting it. But didn't have the time to look through the kernel source yet.

You can get tap to wake with a custom kernel like the one I'm using on my stock rooted N6p. Try EX Kernel it's awesome!

But that wakes the phone fully, not in ambient mode.
I would like the ability to turn on screen saver on double tap or to have the ambient display on all the time. I like how my Wife's S7 shows the clock all the time.
Just slide it a little on the table it will turn on. Mine always does that... sometimes piss me off...lol

Android Nougat 7.1.1 - New Features

Hi guys,
the following new features are exciting:
- when you pick up the phone it shows time, timer, date and received messages without pushing the power button
- when you flip/twist the phone twice a bit in camera app, it switches between normal and selfie mode
you can enable these features in settings/moves, see attached screenshot.
what else new and handy features did you discover? please share
What even? All these features you mentioned already existed on 7.0 lol.

"lift to check" and ambient display are two different settings in different menu locations. also, ambient display has nothing to do with lifting the phone.

lift to check: when you pick up the phone display turns on for a short time to show time, timer, date, music player buttons if listening to music and received messages without pushing the power button
ambient display: display turns on for a short time automatically as soon as the phone receives a message.

Ambient display also turned on the screen when you picked up the phone. It also caused some battery drain on n5x.

Not any longer. With ambient display on and lift to check off, the phone will not turn on if you lift it. No discernible battery drain on ambient either.
Lol this is so confusing, if the display appears as black and white with lift to check, then I'm sure it's just Ambient Display.
On 7.0 "ambient display" did what now on 7.1.1 "ambient display" + "lift to check phone" do.
5x had "lift to check" since release day included with Ambient Display. With 7.1.1 the glance screen stays on for longer, seems to work more reliably and there's that extra setting to control its function.

The glance screen was always idiotic to me, whenever it glanced, i would go pick up the phone and when i had it in my hand it was already off so i found it completely useless lol. I used the LED instead for notifications. have not tried ambient display on 7.1.1 though, but if it stays on longer it will probably be useful now

After carefully examining both Ambient Display and Lift under controlled and exhaustive laboratory tests, I have concluded the following:
- Ambient Display, can easily be activated by any accidental shift in holding-angle and light differences
- Lift, can only be activated by flipping the phone from its face to its back.... (180 degrees) producing a black display just like Ambient Display but a bit longer.
- You can disable one and enjoy the other

Le pro 3 gestures

Hello, are there any gestures for turning on screen in le pro 3. For example as lg smartphones when double tapping the screen turning on. I find in the setting when you press long to back button it goes to sleep but there is not same gesture for wake up. I am using stock rom.

Nope. I miss that from other phones too. There are 3rd party apps that technically do double tap to wake (dt2w) but they basically only by keeping the screen on non-stop and just turning the brightness all the way down. I wasn't a fan of the few I've tried. A custom kernel mod could allow it, in theory.

Interesting and thanks, I will give it a try but mind you, you cannot use fingerprint while the phone is on the table with screen facing up, can you? And using the fingerprint defeats the purpose of using this app and in fact you don't need this app or the ACDisplay if you can use your fingerprint.

WAVE to wake or pick up to wake will do, its built in, just switch it

Yep, I am trying it now and I think my first impression is it being more responsive than ACDisplay both in wave-to-wake-up and pick-up-to-wake-up features. Double-tap to wake up phone does not work at all but rather use to go to home screen once the phone woke up similar to swiping up or down. Notification glance could use some improvement, I like ACDisplay's tap to glance and swipe-down to get rid of the notification. I will check the battery consumption of this app over night.

This an old APP, used to like it 2 years ago...try ALWAYS ON DISPLAY-AMOLED...using it better than the ACTIVE DISPLAY, you don't need to used the pattern, you can use your fingerprint. Trust me, ACTIVE DISPLAY is an old app, works well when fingerprint is not present before.:highfive:

I have tried it too. But it drains battery a lot

Well I was wrong as it is not battery-friendly as ACDisplay. It keeps on popping out even without waving the hand or picking up the phone. I uninstalled it now and reverted to ACDisplay. =D
