Request - Double Tap to wake up on AOSP - Sony Xperia XZ Questions & Answers

Hello guys.
With the new wave of Android Oreo AOSP roms unfortunately we loose some cool sony stuffes. Currently i missing alot the native double tap to wake up. I need to press the pwer button to wake up the device.
Searching in the web I found some apps that make this effect, but seeing in the scream in a dark place i have noticed that the backlight is always on. This don't occurs at sony stock firmware.
Someone knows an app to bring back this feature like stock does?
Kind Regards,
Bruno Horvat

It's impossible hence it breaks lots of service rn, so when stock Oreo will be out, all of that will be fixed

you mean official aosp stock rom or official sony stock rom? The currently Oreo roms seams to use the beta code. I think that official Oreo version bring the cracker instead the octopus in easter egg. I don't wanna use the Sony rom. One day sony will stop support the XZ and the only alternative is use the custom roms. Thx for answer me.

[Q] What ROMS (other than Droidkang) have the ability to disable "Smart Cover Wake?"

[Q] What ROMS (other than Droidkang) have the ability to disable "Smart Cover Wake?"
I am currently running DK19 and one feature I love is that I can disable "Smart Cover Wake," it's in the display submenu. I have a flip cover and when that is enabled, when you close the flip cover the phone sleeps, and wakes up when you open it. I like to disable it at times, especially if I want to listen to something from youtube, but not watch it.
With DK not being updated often, I'd like to move to another ROM. Today I tried 3 other roms: Sensonic HD, Mahdirom, and AICP. None have this feature to be able to disable "Smart Cover Wake." I asked the dev behind cRoid about it, and he said he'd look into it, but he just released a new build so it could be a while,
Just wondering if someone knows of other current roms right now that have this feaure that allows you to disable smart cover wake. I'd love to jump on a current rom that has this feature.
Thanks!!
I think I saw an xposed module that has an option to disable smart cover wake. Don't remember what its called but have a look around in their repository.

Thanks. I did look through the xposed list several times, couldn't find it. Anyone know of any roms other than DK that have it?
Thanks!!
I would also gladly settle for a current custom rom that does not have smart cover at all, i.e. a rom that if you use a flip cover, opening and closing the cover does not wake/sleep the phone.
Thanks!
I might be wrong but I think CM does not have this feature. Or at least did not back in December !

CM does not have it, I have tried CM and other CM based ROMS. Like I said, I have it on DroidKang (which is CM based), but I'd like to find it on other ROMS since DroidKang is not active. Surely there is another Nexus 5 ROM out there that has ability to disable smart cover wake. I don't think the dev behind DroidKang (who is now missing) developed this.

Knock code issues after ota marshmallow update D850

So I was on fulmics 5.0 until yesterday when I went back to stock to try the AT&T official marshmallow update. Very happy with the Rom so far. Fast and smooth.
One weird thing is that I have to double tap the screen before to wake it up before entering my knock code. All other stock based roms I have tried allow you to just tap the pattern on the screen when it is off. Could not find any settings for this, but I may just be looking in the wrong place. Anyone have any idea what this could be?
Also worth noting that it does not flash the red light at me like I put the wrong knock code in. Just acts like I did nothing. Have to double tap to turn screen on for it to allow me to enter the code. Was not an issue with stock LP or Fulmics MM.
Not a huge deal here, just a bit irritating that I have to take an extra step to unlock the phone.

Finger Print MOD

Hi Members and Devs
I've just bought Xperia Z5.
I was wondering if there's any MOD that automatically unlock the screen without having to use the power button.!
Any help would be appreciated.!
there's always double tap to wake in the options menu but you wouldn't want anything that unlocks it too easily

Sorry If i wasn't clear.!
Wanted a MOD That could unlock when there's a recognized Finger placed.
This function is already available in Huawei and HTC phones
it's a android N feature.
beta roms for android N already are working that way
just wait for android N
Enable Ambient Display Xposed, you can use it to wake up screen with proximity sensor.

No it's not, it's also there on MM as it works well on my Nexus 5x running MM. It's been disabled on Xperia Stock based Roms. However, on AOSP or CM you can easily wake and unlock the device without having to press the power button.

I also want that,
I also want to be able to register more fingerprint samples. As more fingerprint samples to choose from means less chance of error. it will make the fingerprint sensor more reliable.
Any kind of MOD (Xposed or system) would be greatly appreciated.
Just register in more samples in Settings>Security, I think multiple fingerprints are a standard feature on devices running Android 6.0
This Xposed Module is also quite useful, it disables the need to enter the pin after a reboot, which means you can unlock your device via fingerprint.
Good luck

Android Oreo Developer Preview Image Released!

This preview of the Oreo build is updated with the March 2018 security patches. It is Android Oreo, version 8.1. If you want to use this, keep in mind that this is a development preview! It is not the final release. There are also a few things to note about using it.
It requires you to be bootloader unlocked (unlocking wipes your phone)
This update will wipe your phone even if you're already unlocked
You will not get any OTAs while on this build
VoLTE and WiFi Calling might not work
No CTS, so Android Pay/Pokemon Go may not work
May be some undocumented bugs
If you're fine with all of that, then the download link can be found on Razer's developer page about the update.
If you want to go back to the stock Nougat images, just follow the instructions here.
If anyone does this can they show us some videos

Look up a video of Oreo on a Pixel. It looks exactly the same.
No default white theme like normal Oreo same default theme as nougat.
Screen now has a colour option which can be set to show more vibrant colours.
Double tap to sleep (only on lockscreen)
Speakers seem louder than before.
And all the normal Oreo stuff
Also Pokémon go does work.

Color options and more power for the speakers are both great news. Much excited.
I'm tinkering with GSIs and I've realised you can go into Download Mode by tapping the Power button several times as soon as the Razer logo pops up (before the orange 'tampered' message appears).
In case that helps someone ^

I wonder if there's a way of doing that with maybe the volume buttons to go directly into recovery as well ?

It did the same thing to me when I flashed stock nougat to fix boot loop. Remove and reinstall the Sim card. That worked for me.
Anyone having Bluetooth mic issues on this preview?
Just got a new BT headset with a built in mic and it ain't working. Just thought I'd check in here before returning it.
I went back to Nougat but did anyone else notice the screen colours go between vibrant and normal all the time? noticed it on the lockscreen, Keyboard and quick toggles but it only seemed to happen with colourful stuff. Default Razer wallpaper, Coloured keyboard and theme applied etc
Yes @Roxas598 I did notice the colors change from vibrant to normal a lot. And I've been watching Netflix on it lately as well and have been watching the second season of a series of unfortunate events and the whole show has been looking darker than it should, making it hard to watch even with brightness all the way up.

I already reported the issue but wanted to make sure it wasn't just me. Thanks!
My Fitbit is not being recognised at all, and my bluetooth mic on my new headphones doesn't work. So it looks like there are some issues with Bluetooth which I'll revert to stock to resolve. Not bad so far, but obviously being close to stock means it doesn't feel much different to 7.1, certainly not enough that you get that excited buzz we once got back when Android revisions were massively different.

How did you do this? I'd like to know since I'd like to use Netflix and Google Pay.

A message to all ROM developers out there...

First off, I thank every individual out there making the F1 a much much better phone. No doubt it needs much recognition like you guys do.. but I want to make an announcement on behalf of all the custom ROM lovers out there.
We all know how fricked up miui is... But the only thing which makes miui a much preferred is a very minor thing which may not be a very major thing...
1. Raise to wake.
2. Double tap to sleep or wake all over the ROM(currently it's only on the lock screen and we need it on the home screen too and make us not depend on third party launchers like Nova.
3. Faster IR sensor reaction times. Like in miui the IR Sensor wakes faster than the miui lockscreen itself thereby allowing us to bypass the lockscreen entirely. Please please we need although it looks like a gimmick but these are some user experience thingies and I and all of us would love for you to add these too... And I appreciate everyone's hardwork at making this phone one of the best phones to ever release till date. Thank you

Not sure about 1 and 3 but 2 works fine on crdroid 6.11 . (it's default launcher controlled).
To add to that i've never used the IR camera wakeup thing, since it requires a fair amount of precision and it may wake up accidentally on occasions .
Raise to wake may be set by a set value on how hard you have to shake/lift the phone to wake it up. Basically it's fine tuning which is usually done when testing a rom / needs a person that's wiling to test just that.
Again, personally i find using 2 fingerprints being the fastest way to unlock a phone, since you can place your finger in the pocket and fully unlock it. Come to think of it i can think of a few cases where it can be useful, but still, those people usually buy iPhones, because they want to feel special.

Lmao iPhone noobs be wrecked by Poco F1. For me the only thing that made me stay on the miui albeit the bugs is its pretty accurate raise to wake and the synchronisation between sensor and raise to wake. If I get it I'll be jumping on the roms the next day but then it's still not made yet

Regarding #2. : in LineageOS (and probably other custom ROMs), there is a new option that might get your interest. You can find it in Settings > System > Buttons > Edge long swipe action. I set it to Turn screen off.
This is what I used to "replace" double tap to sleep on Home screen to quickly put the phone to sleep.
