Hi,
I've bought an used LG Pad 8.3 which was resetted to default configuration.
For me it's behaviour is very strange. One has to tap long on a widget or button to select and to tap twice to choose it. And a voice tells me all the time what I'm doing...
Because of this behaviour I can't scroll through lists so I am not able to reach any option below "Security" in the settings. I even cannot see the firmware version which is installed.
What do I have to do to get the standard behaviour?
Thx a lot
Asellus
Solved: TalkBack
I have found a way to scroll down and found TalkBack. After switching it off the pad works as expected.

I recently updated to 2.3.6 and everything is great except Voice Talk. I know many of you know what I'm talking about. Double tapping home to bring up Voice Talk no longer works. Also, "Auto-start listening" does not work no matter if it is checked or unchecked in settings. There is not an option in the settings to toggle double tap on/off, I know the long press on search works but I use that feature for Sound Hound. Any suggestions?
If you found a double tap home on/off toggle in settings somewhere and you have 2.3.6 installed, please reply with a screen shot and tell me where you found it because I have looked everywhere and I don't see it.
Long hold the search capacitive button
Hello everyone,
While I was testing my phone and pressing everywhere, I might found a feature I didn't read anywhere.
I know there is the ZenMotion, and it works great. By writing a "C" on the screen, you launch the camera app. But I don't talk of that (and I disabled this shortcut)
After locking the screen, press the volume button twice (down-down, up-up or even up-down and down-up). It launches also the camera app.
This isn't a ZenMotion feature (I disabled everything and the shortcut still works).
Is someone having this shortcut too? Did someone know how to disable the shorctcut?

The setting for the double click volume key to launch camera from sleep is in Settings -> Lock Screen
At least on the US version running the WW firmware. See attached image.
Ohhh. Got it. The setting is here.
Thanks!
Hi,
Im using an Australian HTC One M8.
Android 5.0.1
Sense 6.0
Software 4.19.841.5
and am looking for the Auto Redial function that i found on the Verizon M8 version
http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/knowledge-base-95975/
Auto Retry
From a Home screen, tap Apps Apps icon (located at the bottom).
Tap Settings.
Note If unavailable, tap the dropdown menu Apps dropdown menu icon (located in the upper left) then tap Alphabetical. If still unavailable, refer to Manage App Icons.
From the DEVICE section, tap Call.
From the OTHER CALL SETTINGS section, tap Auto retry to enable/disable.
Note Enabled when a check mark is present.
I'd prefer to use the function embedded in the firmware, rather than an app.
Any thoughts or suggestions?
Thanks

Did you disabled volume function keys in settings to check this? Never had screen wake in my pocket.

For marshmallow
It was not difficult to find.
Type in call dialer
*#546368#*855#
if you have diffrent model than D855 type yours instead 855
Go to TOUCH then go to KNOCK ON/OFF option and choose what you want

Thank you ! I thought it was still 3845#*855# for Marshmallow, I typed several times this code but it did not work. thanks again
It was changed with MM. No problem, it was quick and easy.
This did not work for me. I cannot get double tap to work. I just bought (yesterday) this phone because I liked it on my G2. Today it updated to Android 6.0 and double tap is gone.
I can not understand how the LG can make such a bull**** of not putting an option in the menu. My device turns on the screen and activates the camera in my pocket when I wear wide shorts. It's really annoying. LG G3 D855p - 30a.
Secret Settings?

So, for a Verizon VS985, would I enter, in the dialer, *#546368#*985# ? I did that, but then what? If I hit the dial button, the phone actually tries to dial.

Did you tried this? I don't know is it works. Many google search results show sites with this code:
Verizon Wireless: ##228378 (+ send)

Yes. I tried what I posted. It did not work. I ended up going a different route and was able to access the full hidden menu.

Can you tell me what you did to access the hidden menu?
I am having the same issue - since the upgrade, I haven't been able to use the double tap to wake up my phone. I've also tried the dialing codes mentioned previously, and I get an automated message saying the number I called is no longer valid. I would really like to get my double tap to wake function restored!
Thanks.

I have found the solution! Anyone else having this problem, go to the Play Store, and get the free app called "Activity Launcher".
After you open it, select All Activities.
Scroll down to Settings, then KnockON.
There will be two. Open the first one.
This is your KnockOn setting. If the box is checked, it will work. If it is unchecked (as mine was), it will not!
A quick and easy fix. I am so happy to have my double tap function back!!!
Hello everybody,
Soon after getting the Pie update, after the first security small update, i noticed that on my wife's Galaxy S9 the setting "Single tap to swipe" option is gone. Anybody else having this problem ?
Thanks!
Same here. I have also preferred tap instead of swipe... Definitely i am going to change this Samsung brand...
Mee too! I'm very angry...
LOL, you guys break me up, so fickle that you'll change phones because of single tap to swipe feature missing. There is no way you could have even liked the phone if you'll drop it for this.
Same on S9+. It worked on One UI security patch January 1, but it is gone after February 1 update.
Lame, I thought my phone got stuck, took me few days until I tried to swipe, LOL...
I am used to end the call with Power key but never got the hang of using the Volume up key for answering calls, so I just used tap instead of swipe.
Now I guess I am doomed.
My workaround will be to try to get used to using Bixby key for answering calls since bxActions app has such an option.
Until they break that with some update also.
On Note 9 still working after the last update, hope they will not mess with it.
For some reason in latest update they moved it under: Interaction and dexterity -> assistant menu -> Single tap to swipe ....
but now i am stuck with useless menu on my screen (kept only one option in the menu) but when disabling the menu - single tap stops working
Thanks kabangena, with your help i found it. I have set the maximum transparency to the small assistant menu and i moved it in the upper right corner. I cannot see the icon anymore. It's a temporary fix, hope Samsung will do something about it.

same here , but it's still very annoying
Is anyone solved the issue, even with the third-party app? That's really annoying; why don't left that useful option "as is"?
You can hide the assistant menu by long press on it and a circle with "X Hide Here" appears in top center of the screen, drag it into the circle. This hides assistant menu in the notification panel. You have to see the notification every time you swipe down to open the panel, but it is completely hidden from the home screen.

Except, after the screen closes and I hit Home to open it again, this little piece of worthless junk is back.
I'd just leave it somewhere and ignore this POS, but it covers parts of apps that I regularly use.
Why do people think that deleting functionality is a good thing?
Finally I found the solution (not a permanent but still affordable).
- turn Settings->Accessibility->Interaction and dexterity->Assistant menu on and (inside "Assistant menu") set Single tap to swipe is on
- weird floating icon should appear but don't worry
- go to Settings->Apps, press "3 dots" in the top right corner and tap on Show system apps
- find an app called Accessibility, tap on, scroll all way down and remove Appear on top advanced permission (I've also disabled Change system setting)
- now scroll up, and tap on Force stop button
Weird button will disappear and re-appear after reboot only (you should repeat last step again after reboot but it's OK, I believe so)
Enjoy!
P.S. Thanks to user drmusou for his post.
[UPDATE] There is a permanent solution! Set Single tap to swipe option and disable package com.samsung.accessibility by Package Disabler Pro+ (Samsung).
Or just with ADB shell:
c:\adb>adb shell pm disable-user --user 0 com.samsung.accessibility
If you tap and hold the assistant menu you will have the option to hide it " it will re appear after reboot" but can do the same again ?
