Sometimes my knock on doesn't work. I end up tapping the screen 5-10 times to get it to come on. Anyone else having this issue?

I usually have to tap like the exact same spot
And make sure you don't cover the proximity sensor

Strangely enough, I found how hard I knock matters to whether it works our not. I had the same issue with knocking 5 - 6 times until I lightened my touch.
YMMV

On your second tap, hold it on the screen for a millisecond longer.
I just hold my screen and shake my phone and it turns on

What are you using for that?
I too have noticed hard taps ate a bit more unresponsive. Mines perfect with quick ready doubletap.

This actually helped. For months the Knock On feature worked smoothly, as did the Off feature. Suddenly it stopped working so well. I had to tap very precisely and slowly, even then it was hit or miss. Better now. Off isn't an issue because I use Nova launcher gesture with Screen Off. Is there any way to adjust the sensitivity of the proximity sensor?

Yes, it does sometimes, but not so often. Turning on the screen with power button also suffers from same delay. Fortunately not all the time though.
Same here. It do not occur normally, but at least a couple of times in a day use.

We are using first stock software and i hope in new software update or custom roms this problem will be solved. For me its irritating for such high end phone. I used s2 s3 s4 but never see sometime screen blinking like this.

I have the 9005 model, and it always turns off immediately (1/10th second?) with the power button. What sort of delay are you getting?

i have the 9005v model and i have no problem turning the screen off but it hesitates sometimes turning it on. i figured it was just my phone.
I notice that there is about a split second delay between pressing the power button and the screen turning on. Personally it doesn't really bother me that much but I can see how it would be an annoyance for others. I didn't actually notice this at all prior to reading this thread.
Damn my loss of innocence!
I got this too, somehow people say that it is related to how much the phone is using and whatever is in the RAM.
A software fix for this is plausible.

Nope, still none. Occasionally it has a slight delay when turning on, but never when turning off.
I'd suspect an app.

mine too black SM-9005
Yep, sometimes happens for me too. Probably some app doing something at the same time. Now with the S-View Cover, I haven't noticed any delays, when closing the flip.
I read the OP post several times before I realised you meant DELAY not Dealy!!
But I confirm mine does not have this problem (9005 version)

Mine takes like 5 seconds to turn on sometimes. By the time it turns on, it turns right back off cause it took so long.
Same here. I made even a thread about it also I have 9005 model and this delay annoys me very much. Was same problem om MJ1 and MJ3.
The issue is due to user applications running in the background. I have not noticed an issue myself but it's not classified as a glitch. Think of it like this:
Assume you are running a Windows based OS on your computer and you have a bunch of applications open. All of a sudden, you're in a mad rush to leave the office and you just click on Start | Shut Down. Your system engages the shut down procedure but then realizes you have open applications. You get the warning and you click "End Task". Windows will quickly terminate all open programs and shut down your system. In the interim, your system is in a delayed state before shutting down.
This makes logical sense and since you are powering off your device, the device is intuitive enough to understand you're powering off so it terminates all open apps running in the background but the question is... Why does this happen for some and not others. The only answer provided is it depends how many background applications are running and what resources are being utilized.
Hope this helps!
Happens sometimes when I've been busy. N9005, black
It's just an app that's a bit slow at shutting itself down.
I was wondering if there was a way to make my phone wake up faster because there is a significant lag when turning screen on. Minor, but would be nice. Thanks!

Significant lag? How important are you that you need back that extra 2 second it took to wake up?
Sent from my LG-D801 using xda app-developers app
Why?
I mean... sometimes it response on two knocks and sometimes i need four or more....
Have you seen the same ?
Yep, it's pretty normal.
I assume with it being a new feature it's not properly optimized properly if thats right word for it.
If LG get their ass into gear we may see a fix for it. And I mean IF.
No, but i have noticed a trick with it. If you put your hand over the top area of the screen, and then try to knock on. It will not work no matter what until you move your hand. I believe it is a sensor.

Try slow double tap or fast triple tap, it goes better for me
Try it at center of your screen
Sent from my LG-D802 using xda app-developers app
I feel if you "face" the device and tap it works all the time.
I have noticed the same thing across the top bar. I thought it was the camera controlling it, but it is just that my finger was barely on the screen itself. So far a great feature!!

Yes the feature is one of the reasons I bought the G2. I'm always thinking I'm going to wear out the power button. LoL

tapping at the top of the screen where the status/notification bar would be works 100% of the time. at least for me.
I knock 3x. Works all the time
Thanks for the double at the top of the screen hint - works great now
What's worse is accidentally switching on the screen by simply handling the phone and it recognizing your "handling" as knock ons.
Yes, the proximity sensor will keep it from working. Since i have been more aware of this it works much better. Even if i have the phone in landscape and have my thumb on the slightest edge of the screen it will not work. U dont have to be over it. Just close will keep it from working.

Does anyone else have the problem that sometimes your phone requires some real *****-slapping to wake up via knock on? Sometimes it wakes right up but most if the time I have to knock five or six times.
I've tried knocking at different locations and at different intervals but I can't figure out the trick.

I don't have problems with knock on at all. In my case I've found that taping really quickly actualy reduces the sucess rate. Try moderae taps at stedy paste. Also if you cover proximity sensor it won't work. My guess is that it's a "pocket safety" feature to prevent self wake up.
A little bit of practise and you'll get there
No problem at all here, just like double-clicking a mouse:highfive:
but from my experiment, the center area is more responsive than the side, try it with light tap
Hi guys noob question here: I don't have any problems with knock knock but I thought there is supposed to be a knock sound when taping on phone? I can't figure out how to enable the knock sound..can someone help? Thanks

I was using my phone like any other day, and then I locked my phone and later on went to wake the screen and it wouldn't wake up. I did a "battery pull" (power+volume down) and it rebooted fine. When it came back on, I tried to press the button to lock the screen but to no avail. I went on and got smart screen on and it works okay but I'd like to know if any of you know what's wrong with it. It feels fine, clicks like normal. I haven't dropped it recently or anything. But sometimes, when I barely touch the power button, the power menu opens. I don't really understand that but if any of you have any help for me, that would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Kinda sounds like a hardware issue maybe some pocket lint or something wiggled it's way in there... Take it apart and have a look..you would be surprised as to what can work it's way in there

Just suddenly began working the next day. I don't exactly know why... Maybe an app or something had it confused. I really don't know.
