Before today's update, I was running Nova with double tap set to the app screen off and lock. This allowed me to double tap the home screen to shut the screen off and lock the phone (I prefer this to clicking the power button). After the update, I can still do this, but it will no longer work with fingerprint unlock. If I try unlocking the screen using fingerprint, it forces the pattern unlock. Does anyone know a way to fix this?
Thanks.

It's a Marshmellow thing and was like that before the update (at least there were many reports of it, I don't use that feature of Nova).

I'm not familiar with that, but it was definitely working for me before the update. It's not really a Nova feature; Nova just supplies the double tap gesture function which can be used for anything. I think it has something to do with lock screen security, but nothing I tried worked. Thanks anyways.

It's a Marshmellow thing, not a Nova thing. It doesn't work on 6p, or 5x, or any other variant of the s7. Or with any other apps that lock the screen. Seems like it may have been a fluke if it worked on yours. It has to do with the apis for smart lock and Google's fingerprint api.

Same thing with me. The update messed mine up as well. I use this app now with Nova double tap and its working good. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.iwashisoft.screenoff&hl=en
It doesn't lock the screen it just turns it off but it will lock when the setting you have it set for times out. I have mine at 30 seconds.

I use a different tap to lock screen and it now makes me use the pattern all the time. If I use the power switch and wait the 30 seconds the fingerprint works. Try that and see if it works not using Nova.
It is third party lock/screen off apps that cause the enter pattern always function.

Thanks for the reply, but it works now. You just have to use a different app that turns the screen off but does not lock it. With the new app, the phone will lock itself after a few seconds and then I can use fingerprint properly when I turn it back on.
Installed the update from last night, after the phone rebooted the recent and back capacitive buttons are not working. I just did the repair software tool with verizon and that didn't fix it. Crazy...
is there any way to have like in the iphone double light tap at the home button to have the screen go down ?? i know i can triple press home button to have that but i prefer to light tap and not fiscally press... is it possible???
Yes, it is called Fingerprint Quick Action, you may search around here.
I use an app called easyhome for Samsung works great and it customizable

Why double tap or any number of taps??
If you tap on your screens, you may have a chance of mistakenly opening an app!
This following solution is more practical:
"Swipe home button" in Play store. An easy and practical way to get to home screen, works well.

Yes there is an option, but only if the fingerprint sensor is deactivated.

How's battery usage? Is it significant?
Also, I'm using the version you posted but it's not working when the screen is off. I'm sure I deactivated all app-killing process. I don't think it's this.

Hello, are there any gestures for turning on screen in le pro 3. For example as lg smartphones when double tapping the screen turning on. I find in the setting when you press long to back button it goes to sleep but there is not same gesture for wake up. I am using stock rom.

Nope. I miss that from other phones too. There are 3rd party apps that technically do double tap to wake (dt2w) but they basically only by keeping the screen on non-stop and just turning the brightness all the way down. I wasn't a fan of the few I've tried. A custom kernel mod could allow it, in theory.

Try this to enable ambient display and wave to wake up feature.

Also try Fingerprint Quick Action for notification pull down

I tried it but it doesn't effective because it is working after fingerprint. I want to find something which can wake up phone without pressing power button or fingerprint sensor.

Well that's because you need to unlock it. Try disabling the option "Power button instantly lock" and it will go to home screen right away in one swipe.

This an old APP, used to like it 2 years ago...try ALWAYS ON DISPLAY-AMOLED...using it better than the ACTIVE DISPLAY, you don't need to used the pattern, you can use your fingerprint. Trust me, ACTIVE DISPLAY is an old app, works well when fingerprint is not present before.:highfive:

Interesting and thanks, I will give it a try but mind you, you cannot use fingerprint while the phone is on the table with screen facing up, can you? And using the fingerprint defeats the purpose of using this app and in fact you don't need this app or the ACDisplay if you can use your fingerprint.

Yep, I am trying it now and I think my first impression is it being more responsive than ACDisplay both in wave-to-wake-up and pick-up-to-wake-up features. Double-tap to wake up phone does not work at all but rather use to go to home screen once the phone woke up similar to swiping up or down. Notification glance could use some improvement, I like ACDisplay's tap to glance and swipe-down to get rid of the notification. I will check the battery consumption of this app over night.

Well I was wrong as it is not battery-friendly as ACDisplay. It keeps on popping out even without waving the hand or picking up the phone. I uninstalled it now and reverted to ACDisplay. =D

You need Magisk installed, then you can install the module.
After finger print unlocking my Mi9T I have to finger print unlock separately Messages and the dialer apps to use them.
Is this usual or have I done something I shouldn't have in the settings?
Thanks for any advice you guys can give.
