Hello there,
Today I went with a friend of mine and bought him a brand new LG G3, I played with the phone a bit, and I really liked the "double tap" feature where you can lock or wake the phone up without having to press the power button every time you wish to unlock the phone.
My question is, is it possible to implement this setting in the Note 4? (N910C)
and if it is developed or under development, can anyone suggest a kernel/mod/rom that has that feature...
Thanks guys.
it's just a simple question and I'm new here :/
can't anyone suggest something?
I would be appreciate it.
Nope and nope for both of your questions.

hi,
just a quick point. /and question ?
Why do i want to double tap to wake etc...? If i have some other good options?
i flip open my S view case, to wake my device (without touching my screen etc) To put my phone to sleep i can either also double tap screen (Screen off app on Play market) or slide my finger (along top right side)(GMD app.. need root) on screen.. same effect?
To me its just as cool !
(Just some other cool methods!)
Good luck

Well, yeah I know these options and about those apps, all of these apps have one thing, they can lock the screen and not wake it up.
Its not that I will need this feature in anyway.. was just asking if it's possible to implement it through the kernel or a rom, or if its a hardware sensor thing..
because I was wondering, how would a phone wake up from an "OFF" screen with tapping on it, if there wan't any sensor to detect it..
and I wanted to see how would that work on a phone that never had that feature before such as samsung.
Thanks for your answer.
PM: I don't have a samsung phone, my question was for educational purpose as I'm doing electrical engineering.
Yes, it's totally possible, and has been added to many custom ROMs for many different devices.
Actually, to be more accurate, it's added to the kernel. So basically just look at all the custom kernels that are available for you, and see if any have that feature. If not, you could always ask a kernel developer nicely, or offer to donate a little if they'd add it for you..
Hey guys,
Just wondering if Android Wear allows for apps to run in the background of the watch and be called upon double tap or the screen or perhaps double press of the crown.
Anyone know if this is possible?
Hello all.
I don't think anyone has asked this before, so here it is.
Is there a way to disable long-press to change watch face? When I happen to cross my arms, it tends to hit the watchface and registers a long press and goes to the face selection screen. It is pretty annoying as it vibrates and there is a tendency that my face will get changed.
I rather just have the ability to change watch faces via the settings, but would very much like the long-press disabled.
Thanks for reading.
Cheers!
I´ve the same issue, sometimes when covering the screen with the hand to turn it off it changes the watchface...
Wouldn't enabling theater mode prevent that? Two taps on the crown to enable or disable.
No. Theatre mode disables the display.
It should be possible to keep the display on but disable changing watch faces. At least this way.
Yes I found it very annoying too... Google should lock that function (or at least give the ability to do so)

You would need to root your watch, but this should do what you want: http://forum.xda-developers.com/and...ch-wake-to-save-battery-t3116936/post60952041

Thanks. That's pretty close. However, I would not like to lock the screen altogether. Normal tasks like viewing and swiping cards is fine. It's just the long tap on the face that I need to disable. I'm thinking the watch face itself needs to be amended. I'll probably ask around the WatchMaker G+ forums as I'm using it's face.

I'm not a developer, but it looks to me like that just disables touch to wake, which is what you asked for. It doesn't affect swiping at all.

I don't want to disable touch to wake. I want to disable long-press to change watchface. That's pretty specific to changing watchfaces.
any news?
Hello,
i've got an G Watch R (Rooted with an G Watch Urbane port running).
I used Advanced Settings for AndroidWear to disable WakeOnTouch, that works pretty well.
but sometimes it seems that i perfom a long-press on the watch and trigger the "change watchface screen".
Are there any News, how this feature could be deactivated? (to change watchfaces there is also an entry in the settings-menu).
LG Naith
Same problem here.
Was out shovelling snow today and I could feel my wrist vibrating to change the watch face every minute. Must have been wearing something conductive. Tried theatre mode in hopes to outwit it, it skipped passed the three taps almost immediately. As a result, the battery must have dipped 20 to 30% (or more) in that hour alone because nine hours from being on charge it's down to 50%.
I use an LG G Watch (original), so no crown to make the hack above worthwhile (unless I never want to interact with the watch again )
This happens when I bike ride as well. At any rate, any ideas (other than keeping the watch in my pocket) would be helpful (not too concerned about the battery drain effect, just the constant watch face change).
Thanks.
Anyone found a solution for this?
He is an asshole that develops such garbage function.
Hello,
We're trying to simulate touch input to our Android Wear, but without touching it. It's being a hackathon project. You can think of it like a mobile app that navigates the connected watch, such as it swipes between menus and apps.
Would you recommend some approaches for achieving this?
Kind regards,
Emrehan
Maybe this?

Hi everyone,
A bit more unusual question: I have a KW88, but am eager to remove the watch face alltogether.
What I want is that, as soon as button is pressed to show the screen, it will automatically unlock the phone and open an app which I preprogrammed to automatically open on android. It will directly show a big dial button on the screen. Funnily enough, sometimes my autoload app overrides the watch face, and sometimes it doesnt. I haven't been able yet to pinpoint why.
To avoid buggyness, I wish to remove the watch face alltogether and have it directly open to the normal app menu (then the app always opens).
Anyone have a good idea to do this?
Thanks!
Wattah
