I got the phone today, any information why double tap to wake is not possible. or activated ?
I have no idea, but I would also very much like to know. I miss my double tap...!
Same here, just received the phone: Quality seems quite good but I'm surprised this basic functionality (double tap to wake) is not available.
From what I read, if it's not implemented at kernel level then no apps can bring it to the phone ...
If anyone has more info, that would be great!
As an alternative this app can be tried. It wakes the device up by wave gesture.
It must be checked if Mi A2 Lite still goes to deep sleep mode and doesnt stay awake when app is active (hint by dev that some devices have problems)
Also it must be checked if Fingerprint is working without any issues like re-enter PIN after fingerprint unlock
Same problem, got the phone last saturday... it seems that the oreo version has it but our phone's didn't...
This ROM is extremely light so they removed most of the common features.
Let's just wait for a semi-official Lineage release for A2L.
Or you can wait until someone builds a kernel for this device. Many Kernels enable tap to wake functionally.

I thought the finger print sensor would make tap to wake useless lol.
I got the phone 3 days ago. Double-tap to wake works from day one.
I really wish I could turn it OFF.
Ambient Light is Off, TalkBalk is Off but phone still wakes up in my pocket all the time.
Anyone know how to turn this feature Off please?

As it turns out, this phone comes with two types of display CSOT & EBBG.On csot, the double tap works, but it can not be turned off, and on ebbg it does not work.

Strangely, on my A2 Lite, double tap only wakes up the screen. Double tapping when screen is awake does nothing at all.
I emailed Xiaomi Support about this, asking how I could disable the waking up. The reply came from Xiaomi Support Malaysia:
Go to the Settings - Select Accessibility - Select advanced settings - Turn on the pocket mode option​
I replied, "There is no Advanced Settings under Accessibility. There is also no setting available when I search for pocket or double or tap twice."
Their advice was to backup and perform a Factory Reset, which I think is nonsense.

*#*#6484#*#* line #1
so there are 2 version of A2 Lite which has and has no double tap to wake, we have to accept it as they are, but which is better or worse?
So on my s10 i can tap the screen to reveal the fingerprint icon so that i know where i need to place my finger but this setting is missing from the note 10?
This means i have to double tap to wake the screen and then use the fingerprint scanner! Its much quicker the other way and enables me to bypass the lock screen altogether!
Anyone else know what iam talking about and do you have the setting on your note 10 plus ?
I can single tap the screen to get the sensor location. AOD is set to "tap to show". Hope that helps

Oh interesting! Maybe AOD needs to be on so! AOD is off on my S10 but i can still tap to show the indicator. The settings on my S10 that give me that option are not available on my Note 10 +

I tried that and it works but then the clock is displayed too which i dont want! Basically i can unlock the phone from sleep using my fingerprint and bypass the lockscreen but have no idea where to place my thumb! On the S10 you could tap to see an indicator but you cant on the Note 10 for some reason! You have to guess or else your forced to use the always on display

If youre just unlocking it right after tapping it, why does it matter if the clock shows for a split second?
I turned off my AOD and tapping the screen brings up the place to touch without anything else...
Don't know why software experiences can be so different, I'm in Oz if that helps with a stock Exynos variant...
Quick question; I like to fiddle with the s pen button during meetings. Is there anyway to Disable the s pen button's function to play music when the screen is off?
I've already tried disabling media controls in the s pen settings, which disables controls when unlocked. However, the button will still play music from the lock screen or screen off.
Maybe buy a fidget spinner?
You see, it is a bad habit to just fiddle with things as you describe, you may wear down the button, or for that matter anything you fiddle with
Haha. Thanks for the laugh guys. I have other things I could fiddle with at work but that could lead to trouble.
In all seriousness, is there anyway to turn this function off? It didn't exist on older Notes (had a Note 2, 4, then a regular S9+, now back to a Note again).

Oddly enough, my note doesn't do that. Tapping the pen button merely opens/toggles the lockscreen note functionality on and off.

I thought the same at first, but after a few cycles it started working. It only happens if there is a media app running, so it didn't happen for me until I launched my podcast player. Even then I don't think it worked the first few times I tried.
That makes sense and I can't believe I didn't think of that. Workaround: kill the media player (until Samsung enables a way to turn it off completely).
Thanks for the help!
Can't you go to settings>S pen>air actions and turn off media?
Haven't tried but pretty sure it turns off the S Pen for all media... You can also turn off for camera too...

Yeah, it's the first thing I tried. It will Disable pen actions (for media) from the home screen, but for some dumb reason will still allow action from the lock screen (if a media player is open)

That makes sense. Disabling the button would be excessive... But I would imagine that some people may genuinely want to disable media control altogether (from the s pen).

The media controls are handled through Bluetooth.
Op needs to disable Bluetooth pen functions (air Actions). Not the button.

Hit the toggle to turn it off.
That's weird. I can't reproduce the problem you have after disabled air action on media.
Are you using Samsung Music for music?
Maybe disable music control on lockscreen might help
Hi there
I just switched from a Asus Zenfone 5z which has a dedicated fingerprint sensor. So one touch and you ard on home screen.
Now the fingerprint sensor on Note 10 + is slow, also the fact that one has to first click the side key and then put the finger on the screen and seemingly wait for 2 sec.
It is nowhere near as fast as the zenfone 5z.
Have you guys got any better solution or idea to unlock it fast.
Thank you for your time.

You don't exactly have to turn on phone to use fingerprint reader.
If you know the position of fingerprint reader then putting your finger there would turn on and unlock phone. But that would be if you can get it on right position. If not it would tell you and then you can readjust as it will then show you.
Other option would be to have always on display and would show position of fingerprint reader.
You can also double tap to wake up phone as well. Then go through same process.
Hope some others could add more but these has been what I've found out with my usage.

Enable the gesture "lift to wake"
Enable "always on display" so that you always see the finger print location.
What ever finger you use most for the finger print, scan it for 2 spots out of the 4 available. So I have my left thumb for 1, right pointer for 2, and right Thumb for 3 and 4. My right thumb is now always solidly fast.

1. Please clarify : Do you mean to register the same right thumb twice to increase accuracy of the right thumb, as that is what I mostly use.
2. Currently always on display is set as tap to show.
Does making it always show have any significant reduction in battery.
And that you for your time, you are very helpfull.

Didn't even know that I had to just press the locked screen.
Also thank you for recommending the lift to wake up gesture, has increased the speed a lot.
Still wondering if I can use NFC to keep it unlocked as it is always kept on a phone stand.
Many thanks for your time.

You can use Smart lock Trusted places under settings-lock screen to keep phone unlocked. You just have to turn on phone then just swipe to go into phone without password but it will lock after a certain timeframe if not used.

I do know about Smart Lock but prefer not to use it as keeping the GPS on does feed the location data to other apps as well, not something I prefer to give away.
Thank you for the recommendation though.
You can register your face as well. It works really fast with lift to wake up gesture.
Smart lock can be used without GPS on, it uses a trusted wifi network to keep the phone unlocked or, if you have one a bluetooth speaker...
Don't need GPS at all...
Another vote for smart lock but with a wearable like a wear os watch. I pretty much never have to unlock my phone.
In case helpful to someone else, I enabled the increase touch sensitivity setting under Display settings and the fingerprint seems to work much quicker as I don't have to press down harder.

#1 YES
#2 It's a 4300mah battery, the AOD doesn't even dent it.
Happy to help!
I have AOD set to always on, and it is super easy to unlock.
I pick up the phone, hold my thumb on the sensor and it is unlocked instantly. I don't see how it could get any better than that!

Hi, I did turn it on after reading your post, enabled my location with GPS off and wifi connected but it doesn't work.
Is there anything special I need to do in this regard.
Thanks

Yes I turned ut on as well as the phone comes with a factory applied screen protector and that is what that setting seems to be for. Should have been on by default.
My Note 10+ (Pie) insists on ignoring my double tap to turn the screen on but comes on all by itself while in my pocket and despite a PIN on the lockscreen it texts and makes calls all by itself.
Honestly, this is the best Samsung can do?
I am very over this phone and it will be my last Samsung I'm afraid.
Anyone have any ideas to stop it texting/calling all by itself?
Thanks in advance.

Hey there make sure your "touch settings" under Display settings are where you like them (or fiddle with them to see if anything changes) and your "lock screen" & "AOD" settings are correct.
My Note10+ (android 10) lives in my pockets and has no "false" calling or texts. I find it's usually "operator error" since Samsung has soooo many options and settings. Also you might like android 10 over 9.... peace and good luck!
Keep the display facing away from your body.
I use Double Tap with normally no issues.
