Tap to wake is awesome, but all of the little "side to unlock" gestures are killing me. Any way to just enable double tap to wake?

This probably requires a kernel modification.

My problem is that the phone wakes up in the pocket by itself and does random things

Yep. You can double tap the status bar to turn your device off.

It's an exposed framework module. "DoubleTaptoSleep"
Took me awhile to find this setting, for some reason I thought I disabled it in another menu! Glad I found this!
Hey guys, first of all thank u for the great work, i was wondering if u could implement the feature for the device to go to sleep when i double tap the lock screen. it does wake up when i tap the the screen while its off but it doesnt go to sleep when i double tap the lock screen. thank u..
You can enable double tab on home button and select action "Go to sleep". Not the same, but close.

Hey guys,
I'm really needs to know if there is an option within the phone for "double tap" the screen to "unlock it"?
How to get this function working smoothly without any additional functions?
Thanks for reading.
Unfortunately not an option. Otherwise u can use ur finger print to unlock the phone
Isn't there at least an app functioning the same thing? If so which is the best one
No recommendations since your battery will drain .
You can at least add double tap to sleep on the Status bar functionality through the double tap to sleep xposed module. For me i use the fingerprint scanner to wake up the device and double tap the status bar to make the phone sleep as i don't like pressing the power button too much.
Basically one thing that I despised about the Pixel 3 XL when I had it was that you can't use the double tap to wake without using the Ambient display, and it appears from what I hear is that it's the same way on the OP7P. You actually have to do a Quad tap on the Pixel 3. Double tapping twice. What idiot at Google thought that was a good idea.
On my currently S10+, I have AOD and Ambient display turned off, and if I double tap the screen it takes me right to the lock screen so I can easily see what my notifications are. That's the way I prefer it. I know you can hit the power button, but I prefer to use the double tap method.
So, that one thing pretty much killed my desire to buy this phone. There is no way to turn off the Ambient display on the pixel 3 and still use double tap to wake, and it seems this stock feature carried over to the OP7P. Samsung at least gives people a choice.
So before I give up totally on buying this phone, does anyone know a setting or a hack to get it to work like the S10+ does?
You can double tap to show your lock screen on the 7 Pro. You can also double tap on a blank area of your home screen to lock the screen.
Yep 2 taps while screen is off will turn phone on at lock screen.....not ambient display or like a aod type screen.... and i like that because next move is just unlocking device
Nova launcher has a gestures input section and you can choose to "screen lock" with double tap, see attached. Hmm read your title which is misleading, makes it seem like you wanted to lock the phone with dbl tap.
It's in the kernel settings, it seems. Maybe somewhere else. I don't think I'm going to do DT2W because of the fingerprint sensor
Thanks for all the replies.
One thing that I noticed in all the review videos I watched on Youtube, is that when they double tap the screen, it shows the black ambient screen with the little icons for notification, not the actual lock screen. Then they use their finger to unlock.
So what you guys are saying is that it can be set up to when you double tap it takes you right to the lock screen wallpaper which shows the actual notifications and their text and not the black screen with just the time and little notification icons?
I like to actually see the notifications and what they say when I double tap like when the phone is sitting on my desk. I always hated that on the Pixel I had to double tap, and then double tap again.

Ya the title was the best I could come up with at that moment.
In settings/display/ambient display turn off tap to display. That is how mine is set up and when I double tap the lock screen comes up. I have it set to pick up phone to show which will show the ambient display.

Because you need to enable another setting for double tap to wake.
Settings> button & Gestures> quick Gestures> Double tap to wake.
Under buttons & gestures\quick gestures turn on double tap to wake.

I wish I had seen your post before I looked up the same thing and posted it.
Hi there, I'm interested in getting this phone, but wondering if it can wake by double tapping the screen?
thanks!
The closest thing I have gotten working is double tap to sleep (via Nova Launcher settings). But I don't think there's any way to enable double tap to wake on this phone.
You can double tap the finger print sensor to wake the phone...... But not the screen.
