It's been happening to me occasionally also. If I go into settings and turn it off and back on it starts working again. But then I have to do it all over again within an hour.

Yep, that's similar to what I'm experiencing. Are you using the setting in gestures, or the setting in display > ambient display?

Yes. The "pick up your phone to show" setting doesn't work either.

I'm on the TMobile 7 Pro, have an update to 9.5.5.

Neither Double Tap to Wake... Nor Single Tap to Show in Ambient Display.. Not any other Quick Gestures like Draw O for Camera and all.. Nothing is Working... Is there a fault with the device or Software Update??

Simple answer for now, try factory reset, no ideal but then we can try something else

Hope not having any issues with on screen /off screen gesture as I'm using quite offen every day and really one of my favorite feature.
On Vivo smartphone I'm having one year now it's working brilliantly so far, hope OP the same excellent results as Vivo.
It would be totally frustrating if had any kind issues with 7 Pro gestures.

That's not good for a brand new phone out of box...

I'm having the same problem. Clearing the cache in recovery does nothing. I think it may be related to ambient light. Screen off gestures seem to work much better in well lit areas.

I've not had any issues at all since Tuesday when I got the device. Try booting into the recovery and wiping the cache. Could save you some trouble?

A factory reset resolved it for me.

i am facing same problems as you have been nothing works double tap to wake and single tap to show as well as draw patterns for apps nothing works. i have tried wiping cache and factory reseted it too once. i think its a software issue i hope they fix it soon

People apparently can not read. The OP just said factory reset worked just fine and people still keep saying the same things. SMMFH So unless you tried factory reset... no point in continuing to frakin post

So I have had OP7P Since Wednesday and I started to notice these problems about 6 hours in. Problems occurred prior to accepting the Out of Box update, after the update, after a factory reset. Restarting/Shut Down does not resolve the problem.
Lose of functionality are;
Double Tap to Wake
Ambient Display/Single Tap to Wake/New Notification
Gestures
Coming from the OP6T the solution previously that worked was to;
Settings->Apps->See All Apps->Menu (Shows System Apps)->Ambient Display->Storage->Clear Cache->Restart Phone
This solved the problem for about several hours. Going back into display setting and toggling Double Tap to Wake a couple of times sometimes restored functionality.
I have noticed that if my phone is in my pocket for some time and when I pull it out it won't respond. It feels like it has to think about whether it is still in my pocket or not. The times that it stopped working I've had to set my phone on a table or flat surface for about a minute or 2 and then pick it up. Thats when things will function as intended.
I have so far factory reset twice already and while it does solve it then and there the issue will arise again.

As for me it was working without any problem since the day I bought the phone but 9.5.9 broke it. Now I cannot make it work. I've tried xXX rom as well as Smurf Kernel and both didn't help.
Reverting back to 9.5.8 solved the problem... waiting for 9.5.9 FIX.

Tap to wake stopped working after the last update....

My vibration doesn't work in Cm!

Well I have been using oneplus one for a few days and realized it is not vibrating at all. I thought it was defected but it vibrates on startup and when using TWRP recovery. Really don't want to factory reset. You think this is problem with cyanogen mod? If I install another rom will it fix it? Really like cyanogen though... If I don't wipe data when flashing new rom will I still have all my apps and data or will I still need to use titanium backup?
Any help in fixing this without new rom or reset? I fixed permissions already. Is there a file you can edit to adjust vibration settings? I am rooted, bootloader unlocked, and have TWRP installed.

First thing, always wipe data when switching ROMs, always. Not wiping data is opening the door to a world of problems. Now, when you say it isn't vibrating do you mean for phone calls, notifications, what exactly?
Transmitted via Bacon
It is not vibrating at all in cyanogen mod. At all! For phone, notifications, touch, everything! It only vibrates when you turn it on or within twrp
Sent from my One using XDA Free mobile app
Ok, I have to ask a stupid question, but you do have vibration enabled right? If so, then I'd suggest you perform a factory reset.
Transmitted via Bacon
Yes I do, under settings it is, on quick settings it is, under SwiftKey it is.

I'd try a factory reset. You're not running a custom kernel are you?

I think this is bug from profiles or quiet hours. The link to cyanogen mod bug-
https://jira.cyanogenmod.org/browse/BACON-467
I have owned OPO for few days and probably on 2nd day I lost the vibration. This was driving me crazy for last few days, :silly: I even raised a ticket with OPO hardware thinking the motor is shot but then I can see that the phone vibrates on bootup. I recently came across someone saying that the file sys/devices/virtual/timed_output/vibrator/enable value staying as 0 is causing the motor to not work. Come to think of it, I started using profiles and quiet hours from next day.
I don't know if there's a workaround editing the enable file value to 1? I think my notification LED light is also not working cause of the issues with quiet hours.

I ended up switching to Pacman rom and it worked, then I switched back to cm 11s and it still works. The vibrator is not that intense, especially compared to my HTC one m8

I believe the factory reset works but I have just moved all of my apps (200+) and data to my new OPO. I am not very enthusiastic about re-doing the whole setup. Fingers crossed and hopefully Cyanogen team will fix it very soon. If you like it fixed too, please register with jira.cyanogen and vote for this issue. It might get more attention. :fingers-crossed:

I had the same issue. It was just the quiet hours misbehaving. It was showing me enabled in my quick tiles and disabled in the settings and the tile wasn't responding to the clicks.
Here is how I solved it:
1) Reset the tiles and readded quiet hours thinking that it would respond but it didn't (so not a necessary step but no harm in trying).
2) Went in the quiet hours settings and clicked on enforce quiet hours.
3) Now tried clicking on the notification toggle and it responded and turned off but the "enforce quiet hours" in settings hadn't.
4) Unticked it in settings too and my vibration is back.
Loving this so much. For people who got same issue even after factory reset, you may be doing the same mistake again.
Hope this helps.

If the phone vibrates on reboot, changing this setting will bring back the vibration.
Good luck!

Had enabled quiet hours from notification panel by mistake and then no more vibration. After a half a day of research and deciding whether to reflash 33R found this thread on OPO forums. Followed all your steps and it worked like a charm.
You are a life saver. Thank you so much!!!!

Issues with oneplus one after resetting it

Hi. So recently with my oneplus one I have been having issues (location services not working, text messages not sending/relieving, and mobile data acting up a bit). I decided to perform a factory reset because I figured this would probably be the best way to just start over fresh and possibly resolve some of the issues. Most of the issues were fixed, however I was incredibly disappointed when I went into my settings. Half of the options that I could once modify before I reset the device were now gone! To name a few: the notification bar brightness slider, the vibrator intensity setting, the hardware button brightness, the customized screen colors, and the customized lock screen shortcuts..and that's just to name a few of the important ones. I'm wondering what's going on! Is there any way to get these settings back on my oneplus one? Has anyone else had this issue? Is it because of the cyanogen fallout? It's really frustrating. I didn't realize how much I took those amazing settings for granted. I would have just dealt with the issues if I'd known this would happen. Let me know if anyone has any idea..i would be so so appreciative.
Don't know if its the same thing but there is an advance mode in about phone in settings that allows more modifications to be made.

Are you sure that you signed in with the same email as before? Mine were all saved under the email that I used. Otherwise I'm not sure. Sorry! In the future I'd always recommend downloading Dropbox and turning on the automatic camera upload synching so if anything ever happens you'll still have them forever.
flash via ADB?

Always on display not working!

I've waisted too much time trying to figure out why the [email protected]*k my AOD display stopped working. It was working fine for a week but all the sudden it stopped. I've tried everything I can think of and now I'm hoping someone here knows a fix or has suggestions? I don't have any screen control apps installed, no Bixby remap, AOD is set to on etc. Ideas?

Start fresh is always the best option for things like that. AOD isn't hardware related it's software. Something broke somewhere or somehow

I am in the same boat..!
AOD just stop working. (Stock Rom, no root etc)
I basically tried everything.
Clearing AOD, data, cache.
No luck.
I even resetted device settings.
No luck.
I suspect something/app "broke" AOD.
I can set AOD etc, but it just
not working.!
I also notice that device /display /screen saver
is not working.( if you set /enable it)
Factory reset is my very last option.
If i cannot pinpoint culprit app or maybe an update
that "broke" AOD,
i guess I'll be wasting my
time to Factory reset.. just for AOD to "break " again?
once i re install my +- 200 apps. etc.
Any suggestions?
See if the proximity sensor is incorrectly detecting something.
AOD will not turn on if the proximity sensor is engaged, and even if it turns on it will turn itself off if the proximity sensor is triggered for a few seconds.
Use any app on the Playstore.

However device proximity sensor is
working fine.!!
I have Gravity Screen app and stock Smart wake
working 100%... uses proximity sensor.
Also no apps of mine is disabled, so it couldn't be
a knock on effect. etc.
Luckily i use AOD occasionally, but since its not
working now, it's irritating me big time.!!

That is very odd.
I'll try to replicate and report back if anything comes up.
Mine has went out on me twice. I've had to do a hard reset twice. Really really irritating!
Has there been any luck with a solution? I'm also having same issue.
I went in my notification panels and Always on Display is somehow turned off. I re-enabled it and it was fine

I'm having the same issue on my S7 Edge. Tried pretty much everything, even installing several different firmwares (7.0 official non rooted) and no signal of AoD or Nightwatch. Altough, if I use a 3rd AoD app it works flawlessly.
All sensors are ok, phone is running smooth all the time....
I've spoke to Samsung technical support in Live Chat and they say that this is a software issue that is about to be solved by Samsung in the next SW update. But honestly, even trying different firmwares, factory resetting the phone, AoD working in 3rd party apps, and still no signal of default AoD makes me wonder if this might be an hardware issue... Just don't know what because as far as I know AoD is SW only (right?).
I have a couple of friends with updated S7 and S7 Edges and all of them have the AoD running smooth.
If anyone finds a solution for this please just share it
I have the solution
Download the app "NOUGAT QUICK SETTINGS " and grant the ADB permissions on usb debugg. Then you activate the ambient display tile and turn it on in the Quick settings bar. Do it and you aod will back.
Here is the solution
Easy and quick
1. Go to SETTING
2. And then go to "Lock Screen and Security"
3. Click "Always On Display"
4. Turn "Show always"
Done.
Same issue on mine since few days, it's note 8.
I even put the original Samsung theme back, still no luck

Essential phone random lockup fix

Just a sharing of personal experience. I got my essential white from amazon few days ago and was upset why the phone frequent lockup and touch issue. My phone installed November OTP but still suffering the issue. The hell gone after I done a simple trick by disabling fingerprint gesture. This is a vast difference and everything become perfect now.
Guess I'm not the only one then. Mine locks up about once a day. 3 times the first day. I read somewhere that turning off the fingerprint gesture helps. For me it was less frequent lockup. Hope they fix this soon. May try the oreo beta and see if that helps

In Oreo you can turn off swipe for notifications somewhere in the Notifications section of your settings. I can't recall exactly where but poke around and you'll find it, it's a few levels deep though.
I was having issues with the newest Nougat update. It seems after a couple of hours. The phone would slow down quite a bit. I don't know how aggressive the memory management is so I enabled this in development options.
It's so much better after this! I hope essential fixes memory management of the next update.

Fingerprint issue

Hey guys,
I never tried on Pie so I'm not sure if the problem happened there as well but after adding my fingerprints when I go to unlock, my fingerprints don't do anything. No errors or anything either.
The sensor detects them perfectly however when setting them up. I still have to use my pin. I'm on Android 10 international btw and T-mobile variant.
It started to work when I was outside so I'm guessing it's a brightness issue?
Anyone? It randomly works then doesn't. However it works perfectly everytime in apps. Just not to unlock my phone.
That is strange. Personally I would try to change my pin to a pattern to unlock and see if the fingerprints work for unlocking the phone. Try to delete and redo all the fingerprints. I know it is a pain because you will have to reset up all your apps that use fingerprints but I would try random various configurations until it works the way it should. Last resort is a factory reset. UGH.

Thanks I appreciate the reply! I'll give all of those a shot even if I have to factory reset which would suck.
*edit* tried all that besides factory reset and still not luck. Really weird. As this only happens in Ambient display and lock screen. Apps that use it work everytime.
If data reset does not cange anything, try unbrick tool. It seems like the problem with soft. Unbrick tool return your phone to factory state.
I got it working now after switching from Nova back to Oneplus launcher. I read a comment on a forum saying to disable double tap to lock screen in Nova or other things that mess with the lock screen. I need double tap so I just went back to Oneplus launcher. Working so far!

Ummmm, I may be mistaken but did you mention that you were using Nova? No wonder you were having such a strange issue! LOL

No problem glad to help for once and I would as well but so far I've haven't been able to find one. I never tried turning off double tap to lock screen in Nova maybe that would work? I needed that feature though.
I disabeled the sleep by double tap or home button in Nova, and I'm using Xposed Edge gesture to sleep. It seem to work fine now.
