[Q] Double tap for "screen on" (SOLVED)

Hi Guys,
Till a recent reboot I had the possibility to double tap on the screen to "turn on" the screen.
All gestures work on the screen at the moment (V - circle - two fingers - next / previous song) except for screen on.
Is there a setting that I accidentally used?
Any thoughts?
Tnx
Check: settings > display &led scroll down to advanced option "double tap to..."
Should manage that problem
Geri.st
Settings -> Display -> Gestures -> Double tap.
If you use a kernel other than stock, ensure that the option is enabled as well (they're enabled by default on kernels)

So many customizations that you get lost ... its great having options to customize your phone the way you want it to be though.
Enjoy.

How to access phone settings ?

The notification bar only shows notifications and no settings that I can see. Am I missing something or the only way to do it is to create widget or shortcut ?
Pull up slowly from the bottom of the screen. This is called "control center" it's super annoying to me honestly.

Yup that's it, I completely missed "more" on the bottom of the screen. Thank you. Other than few UI quirks I am liking the phone far.
Also the touch sensor works for me even with screen on, so they must have fixed that bug.

[SOLVED] WiFi doesn't turn OFF

Hi guys!
I have an XT1540, 2gb/16gb version (Retail US) on Marshmallow.
This is the situation: I'm not always at my house. So, I turn off WiFi when I don't use it. But, even though I turn off WiFi, it remains ON. This does not affect the battery duration. I also notice this when I toggle WiFi on using the tile under quick settings, it seems WiFi was always on because it shows available networks immediately.
Yes, I have turned off "Wi-Fi scanning" under Settings > Location > three dots > Scanning, so there is no reason why WiFi is always ON!
Does any of you have the same issue? I attached some screenies. :good:
Want to hear from you guys...
EDIT: I found the solution. Even though I disabled Always scanning on Settings > Location, Wi-Fi always was ON!
I used to go to *#*#4636#*#* > Wi-Fi information > Wi-Fi status and Supplicant state always said SCANNING.
Went to Developer options and scrolled down to Networking and turned ON "Always allow Wi-Fi Roam Scans". When you turn this on, it disallows the always scanning supplicant state. Now Wi-Fi totally turns off when I select the tile in quick settings!
See attachments!
I think it's common marshmallow bug, not only in Moto devices but even Nexus devices facing this issue.
After some reboots it goes back to normal.

Well, after rebooting my device this "issue" is still present... Anyway thanks for the feedback!
Then maybe resetting network settings and wiping cache in recovery will be the solution, because it has solved my Wi-Fi drains.

It may sound too noobish but just check these-
Are you using the quick setting tile's down arrow to expand the WiFi list? I can't remember the behavior on stock but in cm 13 both clicking of quick setting tile icon and down arrow *enables* and expands the tile. In other roms, clicking wifi icon toggles it and arrow expands it.
Try this. Open settings>wifi and make sure it's off from there. Now pull down notification panel, and again pull down to open quick settings (qs) panel. Check wifi has a slant line going over it. That indicates its off. Now click on wifi icon (not the 'Wi-Fi' text with the arrow). Does the tile expand and shown as turned on? If yes then its normal behavior. It turns on wifi and expands the view to show wifi networks. In other roms, it just turns on wifi and clicking bottom text expands it.
And if you can bother , try this-
Make sure that settings>wifi shows its turned off.
if your rooted then install catlog app from playstore and run it. If you are not rooted then you can connect your phone to PC with usb debugging on and use the following command-
Code:
adb logcat
If wifi is still on in background and sanning then you can see lots of line referring to wpa_supplicant coming in continuously. This is the best way to tell.
The reason I am tellling you to confirm it is because it's rare. Custom roms are reporting wifi was on in battery page even when it was off (logcat method confirms this).

Go to your location settings, hit the 3 dot menu button and select scanning. See if Wi-Fi scanning is selected. If so, this will allow the system to use Wi-Fi scanning to help fix your location and will keep Wi-Fi turned on.

Hide Wi-Fi connected notification?

Anyone know how to hide the persistent notification that Wi-Fi is connected?
Go to connections --> Wifi --> Advanced --> Turn off notification
I don't have this option on my S8+
settings->wifi->advanced(top right corner)->turn off notifications

Only way to stop it is to turn off adaptive wifi

That doesn't work on Note 9, either. Quite annoying.
These look like the best option to get rid of the persistent wifi notifications, but I cannot select OFF.

It's possible you might need to disable Magazine screen lock, different settings seem to disappear depending on having others enabled or disabled

On the p30 pro, there are in the menu That you say. On the p30, no
May be custom theme (lock screen style).
Custom lock screen style causes this
Thank you I confirm that was the magazine lock screen and the lock screen personalization.
Solved!
Wish there was an option to only wake up screen for only certain type of notifications.
I could achieve this if I disable notifications completely for those that I don't want screen to wake up for but then I'd lose notifications for those that didn't wake up screen. If you catch my drift.
