Double tap app to unlock (No - root) - Xperia Z1 Themes and Apps

Hi guys, any app that you know which works on our z1 that allows you to unlock the screen by double tapping it? Right now I'm using tap tap app which unlocks your screen by "double tapping" on the proximity sensor instead.
This will be a lot of help for preserving the life span of our power buttons.
Oh by the way, my device is not rooted. I'm sure a lot of the guys out there will appreciate this.
Thanks in advance!

Try Gravity Screen in the market. It works great with some tweaking for sure. Battery gets hit some but not noticeable, like 3-7% extra drainage but it works amazingly. Let me know what you think? I will share my settings

I've been using gravity screen since I had my phone, but can't use it while driving, since I'm using a suction cup on my wind shield and it's better to just tap.

Gravity screen seems install itself as a system app = =""
knockr is not real lock screen
just jump from locked to a state that is in that app, the screen is not really off

Hmmmm that explains knockr's excessive battery drain, thanks mate

There is a setting "turn screen on by proximity" for ur situation. All you have to do is tap the proximity sensor to wake the screen. It works for me really well.

Keyboard LED

I think it might just be my phone but everytime i use the physical keyboard in light the led on the keyboard doesnt turn on but when i use it in the dark they turn on. Has anyone notice this?
ERrr I think the light sensor controls that. Especially if you have it to set auto.

Mine does that, think it is a power saving feature. Uses the sensor by the earpiece much the same way as the auto feature with screen brightness.

It is a feature of the phone. I work for the sprint store, and our rep tried to show us that like it was an actual selling point. If you put your thumb on the sensor between the speaker and the camera the light will come on.

Not to my knowledge, at least not on the stock rom. CM7 had settings you could adjust, I imagine when CM9 hits we will see the same.

In all seriousness, I'm not sure what time we're supposed to looking at to help. I see some wake locks happening for a few seconds.
I guess I didn't explain myself well... It's a picture of my phone off charging for a few hours.... But if you look at the line above it says statistics 0s (even though the statistics themselves have some seconds) and the detailed statistics are totally off - Google calendar had 24 wake locks for 2 sec while Tasker is over 1000 but under 1 second... All my setting are constantly skewed and totally off...
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Is it a one time event or did this ashtrays happen. I use betterbatterystats and I have seen something similar, but it's always a time event and goes away next time i boot or plug the charger in.
It's been like this for almost a week. I've rebooted multiple times and deleted cache.

Sorry about the spell correction, lol. Damn ashtrays. I guess the only thing I would suggest would be to uninstall and then reinstall the app. I would have suggested clearing the cache but you're already done that.
Here's a screenshot of betterbatterystats with a few minutes of usage... It's totally empty and it definitely shouldn't be...

Hmm, both are for 4.4 KitKat? 4.4 made it more difficult to get the statistics and bbs wasn't working for awhile. The new version does work. Maybe Rom related?
It's neither... I've had this ROM for 2 weeks now without any real changes and it just stopped randomly...
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
There must be something wrong with the phone or corrupt on the ROM... better battery stats is only showing one wake lock (nlpwakelock)... Grrr
Sent from my Nexus 5 using xda app-developers app
Thanks for all the help... In the end it's a ROM problem that a module in xposed can fix (except I'm on ART so I'm screwed).
Thanks for the help guys!

And why is it that i dont find anything slow like that, like never??
Is it that you have the habit of using HDR? that makes it lag a second or two!
Some tips to prevent Laggy picture Taking!
First of all do no use HDR or modes if you want to take a pic quick!
*Using a higher class SDCARD might help!
*Make sure minimum amount of background apps are running.
*Use AOSP camera its pretty fast.
Hope that helps
Or just save your pics to your internal memory, and it shows up real pretty fast for me, atleast thats what i have seen in my years with the xperia devices. and have used a varied set of xperia devices.
Thx guys
