As the title says. I tried AoD (“Alsays show time and info”) on/off, changing refresh rate, touch sensitivity. Nothing seems to solve this issue. I used this feature a lot on my old phone, so it’s very annoying that it’s not working reliably on the FP6. It’s probably the worst issue with FP6 I faced so far. I’d be ok with using unlock button instead. But it’s hard to press as it’s flat with the case and touching it tends to unlock the phone instead of waking it. If you know what could help please share. If you know some comfortable alternative please share as well. How do you wake up your phone?
For now I think I’ll have to use Pick up to wake, but it’s less comfortable.
I’m on FP5 and it never worked reliably too (for me).
A workaround would be to stop thinking in terms of “double tap” and start thinking in terms of “multiple tap”.
I mean that if I double tap my FP5 wakes up 50% of times but if I start with a TAPTAPTAPTAPTAP sequence after 5-6 taps it wakes up around 90% of times.
I tested it now for a day and its not perfect however compared to the FP5 very good. Sometimes it works with 1st double tap often with the 2nd double tap.
I also feel like it got better since I tested it on day 1 of owning FP6. Perhaps software update improved it. But it still sometimes ignores double tap.
For me it works relatively well without AOD, but with AOD it’s very unreliable
Also increasing touch sensitivity helped as I am using display protection
Where do you find this feature at all? I cant find any of these functions (aod). I’m on FP6 with e/os I’m expecting this to be somewhere in the settings but it’s nowhere to be found. I can download this pick up to wake but it’s a separate app… sorry if I’m obvlivious but I’m just switching from iPhone and a lot of stuff is just non-intuitive to me.
Hi all, today I put my FP6 in the bike holder and I realized that the double-tap doesnt work… so, how do you activate the screen in a rain case without access to the buttons? Is it possible that the company has overlooked this activation option?
Hi sorry for crashing the topic on FP6, but I do sometimes use the Wave up app on my FP5 for similar cases (when it is in the box). Trying to use the power button when in a waterproof bag drives me a bit crazy. I also use face unlock cause drawing a pattern in a rain is a challenge and toggled the screen attention option on.
I tried a bit around with the newest update today (Software Update: FP6.QREL.15.151.0 📲)
Without always on, it still seems to work reliably.
With always on, it seems only not to work if I try to wake it up directly after turning off the screen.
If I turn the screen off and wait for a few seconds, it seems to always work.
There is always the moment when the AOD switches from very dark to a bit brighter after a few seconds. If I try it before, the double tap does nothing, but after it works.
Can anyone confirm this?
Hi @Kalibri , feedback from the relevant team: This is indeed expected behavior. With AoD (Always on Display) turned On, the double tap to wake only works after the system fully enters AoD mode, which is after a few seconds (roughly 5 sec). So double tap to wake will not work right after locking the phone if AoD is ON.
FP6 La fonction « Tap to wake » n’est pas fiable
