Hey, guys. I'm a huge fan of this phone.. I can't get over what a good value it is for the money. I have almost zero issues with it. The one issue I do have is the inconsistency with tap to wake. It seems like after it has been in my pocket for a while, it just fails to work. This happens periodically throughout the day, to the point where I just can't rely on it. It drives me mad because that's kind of a must have feature for me. To be fair, the only device I have never had tap to wake issues with is LG phones. They just seem to work all the time.
I did raise the sensitivity following the guide found on these forums. It's something else, like the pocket protection is stuck on or something. Anyone else experience something similar? I don't want to use the fingerprint reader. Is there something I don't know? Some setting I'm not seeing? Or is this just how it is?
Still a great phone otherwise. I wish I could fix this one little thing.
Is your screen clean or dirty? Have you tried wiping it down with 70% isopropyl alcohol and seeing if that improves the responsiveness. Is the phone hot when it's not responding? Are your fingers dirty?
It's not very sensitive, you definitely need to give it a couple of thumps unlike the taps on an LG phone.
There's a learning curve with this phone. I nearly dislocated my shoulder trying to shake the flashlight awake before I realized you had to wake the screen first

I mean, this only happens when I take it out of my pocket. Tap to wake works fine the rest of the time and my screen is definitely clean.

I'm coming from an lg phone as well, I have found the taps must be slower. The pause between taps needs to be just a little longer and it works for me almost every time.
Double tap to wake doesn't work when the phone has gone into doze mode. ZTE knows about this issue and is working on a fix.

That actually explains a lot. Thanks!
Doze seems to break a lot, including notifications on other phones.

The doze should not kick in if the phone is moving. One of the conditions is that phone should be static for a while. More likely it's something based on proximity sensor to prevent accidental turn ons. I found that i would have to tap several times to wake it up most time i have to do it twice. The force touch is buggy

Well, I haven't had any issues since I disabled doze and I doubt that's a coincidence.
I agree that doze shouldn't kick on in your pocket, which is why I originally suspected the proximity sensor, but it could be a bug in ZTE's ROM.
My Mate 8 had a malfunctioning doze mode that would cause all notifications to stop as soon as the screen went off, even if the phone was moving. I fixed that by disabling doze also.

The same issue I'm having on both colors I'm having .
Most of the time when picking the device from my jeans pocket refuses to open with double tap even after several attempts.
I have to unlock by pressing with power button and then when holding my phone it stating to work fine.
It's really annoying and frustrating.
Only double tap to sleep with nova prime or 3D next launcher working 100% perfect in all situations from home screen.
Also I'm using glimpse notification and enable the option to double tap to sleep from lock screen and works perfect all time.
Another feature having is it wakes up the screen automatically every time having notification alert and after screen being off continuous the led to be on as a reminder.

So, I was wrong. Disabling doze didn't fix it. I went back to my OnePlus 3 for a day to get perspective. That phone pretty much never misses a tap-to-wake. It just works. Conversely, the Axon regularly "goes to sleep" when it's in my pocket and I can tap on the screen as many times as I want and it will never come on until I hit the power button. It's definitely not working like it should, at least not for me.
I'm not sure how anyone can say that it's working fine. I like everything else about the phone. This is just annoying because I can't rely on using tap-to-wake. I spend more time tapping on the screen when it's not working than I would if it just didn't have the feature and I had to use other methods. If ZTE could fix this to work as reliably as an LG or the OnePlus 3, I'd be in heaven.

Hi guys just wondering if you noticed this strange behaviour.
I noticed a quite frustrating delay after a call when i take the phone away from my ear, it takes 2-3 sec for the screen to turn back on.
Has anybody experienced the same?
Do you know if there is a solution for this?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
yes, think its normal. looks like the same delay when pushing power button for screen on.

Thank you.
That seems strange as it is something really basic that you expect to work in a phone of this price range. Moreover it's something you come across quite often.
Do you know if the latest firmware improves this?

You can just turn off the sensor in the call app, if you want your screen to be available just after a call.. I don't see the problem.. but my delay is also just around a second or so.

But if I do that i will drain battery unnecessarily. I don't know you guys but I find it really annoying having to wait 2sec after a call for the screen to wake up. I want to be able to hang up immediately i think I'm not asking something ridiculous.

you can also set the power button to terminate the call and you will not have to wait for the screen to turn on...
Reading the data from an analogue sensor (such as the proximity one) is always tricky... You need time to level out the values coming back from it, then determine that, over a period of time, the distance is suitable to enable the screen.
Only then can it be turned on etc

sgs 1 managed it fine though?....or am i missing something
Yeh my i8000 had no delay with the proximity censor.
But the screen delay seems to be everywhere. Turning on from sleep, time to adjust to ambient light and obviously the proximity sensor after pulling it away from your face.
Its not a major drama for me but I agree that it would be good to not have the delay.
I just noticed that when I use Skype the sensor works really well, meaning there is almost no lag.
I'm confused..

Yes! Very annoying.
Yep! I was commenting on this the other day. To be honest, I make and receive very few calls from my phone but when i do, I feel the rage rising inside me everytime because of the sensor delay.
It's the small things that annoy you the most.
As mentioned, you can opt to have the power button hang up the phone. It also does not turn the screen off, so you can continue working on the phone.
This is actually under accessibility settings, not call settings.
Menu -> Settings -> Accessibility -> Cancel the prompt -> Tick 'The power key ends calls'.
I also find the lag on waking up very annoying. Even once the screen has woken up, it takes a second for the touch input to be recognised so the pattern unlock only registers my last two or three inputs depending on how quickly I start swiping. I have to enter the pattern again. Very annoying.

I also have this problem, although I'd estimate it only takes about 1-1.5 seconds for the screen to come on.
I do however not think that this is a sensor problem, but rather a software problem.
Type *#0*# in the dialer, and press Sensor.
The phone will now vibrate once you trigger the proximity sensor. And it seems to be very fast and responsive here.
i have the problem using Skype...when i start a call it turns automatically the screen off ! i need then to push on home button to get out of skype...very ennoying...
last time i made an order online, my bank sent me a code by phone and following the instruction, the voice asked me to push the number i hear...i simply could not !! the screen was completely off ! and i could not succefully purchase online, my order was cancelled !.....due to this problem of screen..i think it is seriously ennoying and must be fixed in an update firm or something .
Agreed, this is a very annoying and unnecessary delay. Especially coming from an iPhone, where the screen turns on instantaneously when removed from the ear.
Hoping for a fix.
im ready to pay to get this fixed
I know many people are having issues regarding the cases that wake your device. A supposed fix is to turn on wifi or bluetooth. I just noticed today that if you're using a custom kernel with doubletap2wake or sweep2sleep/sweep2wake, that enabling either the doubletap2wake or sweep2wake fixes the issue as well. The screen auto wakes using my Slimline if that option is enabled. I feel like this is a step towards narrowing down what the issue is.
Actually, I flashed a kernel with those features because of my wake issue and it didn't fix anything at all for me. It was exactly the same, which I expected. It was annoying, though, so now I just leave Bluetooth on and call it a day. I'd rather leave Bluetooth on all the time than have to double tap every other time I open my cover.

I've had doubletap2wake on all day. Airplane mode on. Works every time. The moment I turn off doubletap2wake--the issue pops back up. Maybe I'm just lucky/unlucky?
I always read around the forums that everyone has problems with the magnetic wake lock, but my supcase works perfectly fine each time I open it. I'm even running CM10.2 Kang FLO version. Could it just be the cases people are using?
Highly doubtful. If it was something where the case would intermittently work all the time or it was something that only happened if the case was folded back, then maybe it is the case.
In this case, the case works all the time until there is some wifi event or the unit goes into deep sleep under certain situations.
The case is a simple magnet. It just needs to be strong enough to be recognized consistent. It has no idea about those states.
FWIW Google/Paul mentioned they were able to duplicate the problem and are looking into it.

Rather than using airplane mode, have you tried leaving bluetooth off and WiFi on but setting WiFi to sleep when the screen is off? That's how I can reproduce it consistently.

Dammit. That did it. Oh well, I was wrong.
How i solved the wake lock/ lock screen hang issue
Guys I solved the issue you will not believe how simple this is lol.
The issue isn't hardware or software for that matter, YES NOTHING IS WRONG WITH YOUR DEVICE, but rather the cases themselves. My issue was that the device would lock whenever i had the case folded back in either Landscape or Portrait mode. Whether watching a movie or reading my books/ comics
I tried toggling Bluetooth and Wi-Fi no success. :crying:
However, I realized that using the Tablet in the case while it was in "standing mode". The screen would never turn off. So I tried something and took a leap of faith.
Instead of having the power button inline with the magnetic strip on your case, i just turned it upside down i.e. swivel the tablet so that the power button was no longer inline with the magnetic strip. I held the edges near the power button as hard as i could and it never once turned off lol. :good:
Yet as soon as i turned it back to be inline with the strip it turned off instantly with every try. After several exhausted tries I am certain that this works and solves the issue. as a matter a fact once you remove the magnetic strip side away from the power button it doesn't hang up, the effect is instantaneous.

I think the biggest issue is knock speed.... mine works damn near 100% when I slowed down some, and knock slower like it showes at the end of the G2 commercials....
I think it's partially related to the proximity sensor. There are times when I can't get the knock on to work at all and when I hit the power button the screen shuts right back off.
Usually a few swipes over the sensor makes it work again. Sometimes I'll go in and turn the Knock On gesture off and back on and then it seems to work great for a while too.

This is my exact problem. The phone just decides it doesn't want to wake up with knock-on...but after I press the power button, it only turns on for half a second and it's out again. I never tried swiping over the sensor, but hopefully it works because it's mighty annoying when it does it during a call!
I wonder if there's a fix for this?

waiting on the g2 to arrive, but on my review unit, knock knock wouldn't respond correctly if i left the phone on the table, but if i picked it up, it would work nothing scientific here just an experience of one person and one prototype
I had the same issue... What fixed it is: 1. I found that the screen protector was hindering it somewhat. 2. Go to settings->display->screen-off effect-> and change it to simple. This REALLY seemed to help. Let us know!

I did notice it does seem to behave better when set to simple for the screen off animation.
My screen protector does have a cutout around the sensors. Keeping the sensor area clean enough to qualify as having OCD does seem to make it work properly the first time, every time. Maybe it's overly sensitive?
Edit: Scratch that. 30 seconds later it's behaving erratically again. Maybe it's not the fact that it's clean, but the swiping over the sensor that temporarily resolves it.
it also seems to work much better when knocking at the top of the screen where the statusbar would be.
So I ended up swapping the phone out over the weekend for a new one and now everything seems to work just fine. Seems to indicate that it's not a software problem, but rather a hardware issue with the proximity sensor.
Guys if your covering the sensors when turing the device screen on it will turn right back of on you. It's a feature LG implemented so the device wouldnt wake up in your pockets. Don't cover the sensors.
Need a little example? Grab your phone and cover the sensors and knock knock knock.You can knock till the cows come home but it will not turn on. Same thing goes for the power button but its a little delayed and will turn the screen on for half a sec and turn right back off. Practice not to do this because your phone isn't broken. There is actually a thread on this deep in the forums somewhere but its been forgotten now.

This is true however there are indications of problems with the proximity sensor as well. Some of the devices are behaving as if tree sensor is covered even when it's not.

Thanks for this.. Very insightful.. I tried it immediately LOL
I had the same issue. I have no case or screen protector on, and was not covering the sensor when trying to wake the phone. For some reason though, knocking wouldn't wake the phone, and pressing the power button would only turn the screen on for a few seconds. I want even given enough time to get past the unlock screen. I went into the store and they are sending me a replacement that should come in later this week. It doesn't happen all the time. It is much more noticeable after receiving a call though.

Definitely is dependent on the proximity sensor. If i just have my thumb on the edge of the phone by the sensor it will display this problem. Even with my finger a half to one inch above it will do this. I will be paying close attention to the proximity sensor from now on when it doesn't work. Still have a few days to return and thought i had an issue but maybe not.

As long as you tap twice the same place it's working fine. If distance between first and second tap is greater than 1 - 1.5 cm it won't work.
Got the same problem on my d802...when i left the phone on my table for 2-3min it wont wake up on first knock knock even power key wake it up for 1sec after auto turn off again....even with no screen protector....i noticed that sometimes there is a delay about 5-10sec after knock knock and screen turns on....other thing i noticed when i knock on immediently after turning off it works 100%....BUT i also noticed when i knock on after a while it turns on and i can unlock got vibration and sound of the unlock but i cant see anything. Screen looks like its off but when i look closely i can hardly see widgets and when i set effect to tv out i can see the effect by pressing the power button...when i press the power button again screen turns on like normal...i noticed sometimes on a rerboot the lg bootlogo disapears the led is working an showing all colors but the boot animation is gone like the screen is off at the bootup...dont know why after the bootup the pin lock screen is showing up normal....sorry for my english^^
Wondering if theirs a baked kernel that has a raise to wake feature. Installing a 3rd party app might cost wake time. And I love the feature on my iOS10. Doubletap to wake is nice but raise to wake it a bit more convenient during a hang over.

Hey Guys. No problem strongst. Not everyone uses an idevice. yea its a upward motion sensor that lights up the screen. Exactly what Vikas mention on his 3rd line post. But I dont think its a proximity sensor or has anything to do with ambient.
Ive tried a few 3rd party apps and they didn't work very well. Also you have to pick it up in a angle, and what's annoying is when the screen is off you carry it and tilt it in an angle the screen lights up. 3rd party apps also have to be always whitelisted in my batt saving settings because it needs to be always active to work. I am getting 3 days on battery and would like to keep it that way

Thanks for letting me know about Gravity Screen On. It works perfectly on my PH1, that is until the lock timer kicks in and then back to same situation. Takes forever to wake it. Sometimes I even wind up having to do a reboot to get it back on.
