Nice! Love this feature. Always envious of lg for that. How much does it effect battery life
noticed the nexus 9 has it too on a video i saw.
Maybe that's a typo or he got confused with the 9? Strange that nobody else mentioned what would be a pretty big feature...
I hopefully does it, because after getting use to it on my g3, i catch me some times trying to wake my other devices with double tap
I loved that feature on my G2, M8, and now G3...but with my G3 always turning on in my pocket I was ready to be over that feature.

"In his hands on, Honan specifically calls out the feature, although some were still left wondering if it could have been a misprint (the Nexus 9 also has tap-to-wake). We reached out to the author where he was able to confirm that yes, this is, in fact, a feature found in the Nexus 6 and was most certainly not posted in error. Boom" -Phandroid
Glad google included this feature. I guess other people just didnt try to tap it?
This is great news!

As you can see it is not a mistake to have given the news in preview
Also double-tap to sleep (turn-off)?
Here is the article from Wired. The confirmation is in the comment section.

It's a 5.0 feature from what I saw.

Yes! That's even better. I won't even miss my g2 then with the heads up notifications and the double tap to sleep and wake it'll be the features. that I used most. Only thing I'll miss are the nice camera features like burst shot and some of the other effects. And the floating apps and dual app use but I didn't use those as much

I'm not a fan of bringing back dead posts but double tap to wake does not work on the nexus 6, or at least not on mine.
I'm still hoping they included it, just not yet enabled. Or maybe a dev can activate it, especially since it is on the Nexus 9. Key will be if the digitizer and screen are on different power planes so as not to drain battery.

It's been confirmed a while ago that it doesn't have it. There's a commit that removes it specifically.

I hope a Dev can enable it with a new kernel I miss that from my G3
Its only worth enabling if it doesn't completely drain the battery IMO ... and that depends on hardware .. thats the reason why Nexus 5 couldnt really use it ( even after activated by the devs ) because the hardware wasn't right :
It had to keep power to the entire screen rather than just the digitiser, thats why the G3 etc don't drain the battery .. lets hope the Nexus 6 screen is built to supply different power to the digitiser and actual screen
Hey, everyone!
I, for one, am sitting on the fence with the decision on whether or not to buy the G4. Since there are so many threads talking about the various issues with the G4, I thought that I would ask those of you who don't have any issues. Let's balance the arguments so that more of us can decide on whether we want to buy the phone or not.
So... Who is perfectly happy with their phone and would you recommend it?
Yes i am pretty happy with this phone.. No touch issues for me 10 fingers are registering nicely.but sometimes 2 or 3 times out of 100 knockcodes says wrong but taps are registering i think its my fault that i enter knockcode incorretly.
Right now i m using lg keyboard and no lag at all..
Battery is seems ok to me i m using games skype fb viber intertnet browsing all day and i got 4 hours of screenon time with brightness level 75%.

By far the best phone I've ever purchased. Very happy with all aspects of the phone. I do no notice any missed touches or incorrect knock codes as long as I'm going at a reasonable speed. Everything works wonderfully. The camera is amazing and I am incredibly impressed with the OS. 100% satisfied here!
Me too. Best phone ever. Camera is amazing too

No issues for me even snapiest than S6 imo. Perfect phone
Battery routinely gives me 4+ hrs sot. Great camera. Great colorful screen, probably my favorite feature.

Absolutely zero issues. Perfect screen, touch is responsive, no heating up, no lag, camera takes gorgeous pictures.
I get occasional lag, but for all I know is it's an app (I'm a techie so I'd like to think all of my apps are legitimate but who knows).
No hardware issues, etc.
I voted "Yes" because I have some issues but those are so minor that I don't really care about them too much... It's a really great phone and I highly recommend it...
Great phone
My first post but I wanted to chime in on this thread. I have read this forum a lot since I am interested in root access. I feel like there is a vocal minority that hates the phone, primarily because of lack of root, and wanted to offer perspective from someone who's mostly a regular user.
I mostly love the phone. I previously had a Galaxy S4, and have had this for 3 weeks. There are many little things that make it overall a great piece of hardware.
- No buttons on the side. I can't tell you how much of a design improvement this. Never accidentally press anything, hold it how you want, put it in any clip-type mount, no issues. It takes about a day to get used to using the back controls and then it's joy.
- Phone feels great in your hand. It's the perfect size, shape and weight, and you can switch the on-screen navigation buttons so "back" is where I was used to it on the S4 (the right side). I never really felt comfortable holding the S4. Would often flip it out of my hand while trying to one-handed operate it.
- Beautiful big screen. The slight curve feels perfect in your pocket.
- The default launcher is actually very nice. Some nice little things like you can shove 7 across on the task bar and it will shrink the icons to fit them; good folders implementation; apps/widgets tabs. It's unintrusive and gets most stuff right.
- The IR blaster actually works.
- Mine is Verizon and annoyingly they disabled some features, but the only thing I really cared about I got back with a shortcuts (native phone number blacklist). And access Lock, vital.
- Shortcut to camera with volume-down button, nice. (And of course the camera is stunning)
- Battery life has been fantastic for me. I've gone two days on a single charge with moderate use. I don't keep the screen incredibly bright, though, this is definitely the biggest power sucker.
- No overheating issues. This was infuriating on the S4, I couldn't run Waze on a summer day without it literally shutting itself down half the time.
- And of course the whole reason I got this instead of an S6 in the first place... removable battery and my 128 gig of storage
I haven't had any touchscreen issues. I did install the OTA update which was pushed to my phone the same day I got it. (I hope I don't come to regret this w.r.t. root...)
So while I wish I could root it, the lack of root access isn't actually making my life miserable in any way. The only reason I rooted the S4 it was because of the lack of SD card write access under Kit Kat, and because Verizon pushed an update that actually broke the S4 causing random reboots which was fixable by removing Knox.
The SD card is not an issue with Lollipop. That said, once I had root access on the S4, of course I installed the Xposed Framework and played with stuff, like adding flashlight to my reboot menu (hey, this is already on the pulldown menu built into my G4!). But there is really nothing I couldn't live without.
So I'd love to be able to root this thing, but here's exactly what I am missing without root compared to the S4:
1. Full ad blocking (I can block over wifi with a proxy, so it's just an issue for cellular data)
2. Greenify that has native access to stop apps.
I have since just started using Greenify as my screen-off button and this is satisfactory (though I still see some apps like Skype that like to just resurrect themselves randomly, not much I can do here). The ad thing is not really that big a deal for me. I don't spend a ton of time reading ad-heavy web sites over cellular data, while I've certainly noticed ads a little more than I used to, it's not making me crazy. There's no dealbreaking functional issue such as I had with the S4 that makes me feel like I will cry if I never get root.
So there you have it, very happy LG G4 user.
I remember reading here on XDA a way to have adblock on cellular. I think you need to create a new APN and add a proxy to that APN I tried this on my s6 and it worked.

I did find a description of a method to do this while researching the issue, but I don't think it's possible on this phone. The methods described involved options that were not available. (No proxy config, can't create new cell data profile). I looked for shortcuts that might expose hidden options but couldn't find anything relevant.
Anyone elses g4 mistake a swipe up gesture for a tap when scrolling? Ill be scrolling xda or any other app and i swipe to go farther down and the phone will mistake it for a tap and click on reply or photo or something, pretty annoying but just wondering if anyone elses g4 does this

I have the H815 verison and besides double tap to wake sometimes needing 3-4 taps to wake up, the phone is flawless (as it should be for what I paid for it lol).
I voted no problem, but I have a small issue with double tap to wake.
It seems that occasionally the phone is locked and at the knock screen even when several Smart Unlock conditions are met (location, connected to bluetooth, etc.). If I double tap, it doesn't wake because it's still locked and expecting a knock code. This double tap wakes the phone, but doesn't always turn on the screen. The second double tap usually unlocks the phone, but occasionally it only wakes to the knock code screen. If I pause for a moment, it'll usually Smart Unlock and all is well.
I seem to have less of a problem with this if High Accuracy Location Mode is on. In GPS only mode this was happening all the time. Hopefully there will be an update to prioritize Bluetooth for Smart Unlock.

Using it for a couple days now. Its a great phone. Am patiently waiting for Root then it'd be perfect
Wow. Thanks for the replies, people.
The poll results seem neck-and-neck right now but it's great to know that there are several people with no issues. Software issues can always be fixed so that's an upside.
Interesting how there are people that say they have no issues other than swipes not registering correctly or double tap doesn't work all the time or there is something often lagging....
Those are issues...

It feels like a small software issue.
If you check out the horror stories in this forum, you'll see how people are really giving this phone bad press. Compared to that, a couple of taps not registering for Knock On doesn't seem so bad.
I got the priv and it's my third day using it and man do I miss my s5, most importantly TOUCHWIZ. I had Samsung since 2010 so it's so weird to me. But my s5 was getting really laggy and slow. I'm kinda regretting the priv because I miss switching batterys, I hate being connected to an outlet and I miss having root. Would the priv be able to get root at least? I wanted something new but this is not my cup of tea. If there's no root then I'll just end getting the note 4 with removable battery and SD slot.

I am also hoping there is a non tethered root method discovered for the Priv. I think there might be but I know it will be difficult. Many well known devs have already commented even before the Priv that root access will become more difficult with MM.
Just curious but what exactly are you missing about touchwiz? I have a several Samsung devices & one of the first things I like to do is rip touchwiz out & either leave functions disabled or replace it with an alternative solution. I just never liked the cost of lag that running pure stock left you with.
If you let us know specifically what your missing we may be able to offer 3rd party solutions you might actually find superior to what you get with touchwiz.
I like the weather and clock all in one and how everything is more simple. This BlackBerry android is really complicated and boring. I never really liked stock Android, Nexus and so on.

The weather and clock combo is a simple fix. You can take your pick of hundreds of options in the PlayStore.
The simple maybe a bit harder. Samsung really did dumb things down on their devices. (apple of Android)

Not sure what you're trying to communicate here but I especially love the fact that BlackBerry is actively trying to bring the best they have in smartphone tech to the Android platform.
I don't find it complicated at all. In fact I find out exactly the opposite. The shortcuts they add to the launcher & keyboard alone have saved me tremendous amounts of time. I admit I send allot of emails & text messages but I actually like to work on my phone [emoji1]
I think you hit it in the spot when you pointed out that you never really liked stock Android which is not really a BlackBerry thing. Sure they could have done more to customize the interface like Samsung did with Touchwiz but until the Note 5 came out I really hated how slow & laggy Touchwiz made my past Samsung phones. It made my a Note 4 upgrade to lollipop so slow I had to wipe the phone & go back to kitkat.
I'd also recommend getting Chronos widgets from the Playstore. They have a great time, date, calendar combo widget.
Don't get me wrong because I think the Priv is far from perfect. I would have really preferred the following items
* removable battery
* fingerprint scanner
* DTek software that could actually block application permissions so that I have total control over my personal info
* more control over the launcher functions like the bottom screen gestures
* more control over the edge screen options & functionality
* more control over the productivity tools
* Developer Edition Priv hardware with unlocked bootloader & root access so XDA can help fix the things preventing the Priv from being the must-have smartphone device it can be!
* the rest of the missing BB7.1 & BB10 missing features & gestures [emoji1]

Nvm youre right, Im starting to get used to this phone but theres alot of stuff I have questions for. Do you know where the screen shots go because I can not find them on photos. I just really wish the phone had a removable battery and it wouldve been perfect but oh well I just ordered a Auckey portable charger and Auckey fast charger and Ima see how that goes. Also is there any way to leave the back, home and clear apps always up instead of it dissapearing?

You can view screenshots through Photos. Click on the three lines at the top left and then you can change the view to device files. You'll then see your screenshots.
I don't think you can set the home and back buttons to always on which is probably a good thing the next time you go watch a video or some other action that might have those in your view.

Ah, I wasn't directing my comment at you, it was for the original person you responded to. It's a native Android function since... I think kitkat to do the swipe in from the bottom edge of the screen to bring up the softkeys whenever you're in fullscreen modes.
Just Recieve the 5.1.1 Update,
LMY47X.N915TUVU2COK2
Update size was around 650mb
video calling now enabled
No Themes
samsung pay still doesn't work, because knox was previously tripped.
Android pay works fine (because back on stock rom)
There appear to be NEW edge panels, (been 3months since i checked for panels so my just be new to me)
Did a Speed Test result were very poor 6MB Down 20MB Up Brooklyn NYC.
Also it appears you might not be able to downgrade back to a older verison of android.
Phone feel slower.
I have just updated mine. My phone was lagging very much after update. So i did a reset in Android recovery mode. And now my phone flies!
So This is T Mobile's update? Did you being any chance reset the phone and check if battery life has improved?
Also is the camera button back on the Edge Panel and how is your battery life?

How is your battery life and is the camera button back on the Edge screen?
Camera button is still on the main screen, just took my phone off the charger will update end of the day with battery usage.
I am not happy with the update. It seems to have disabled the ability to detect my wallet cover. Now when I open and close it the phone does nothing. Instead it just stays showing the screen and nothing on the edge. That is not going to help my battery life. Also, when my alarm went off this morning it didn't give me the option to dismiss the alarm through the edge panel. I had to open the cover, which it didn't recognize and dismiss it on the screen. If you really can't go back to an older version I am just going to trade the phone in and get a Note 5. I loved the Edge but if it is losing some of the best functionalities it has then it is not worth staying with it. If anyone is able to help make the adjustments, at least for the wallet cover that would be appreciated.

Christ, they really screwed this phone. The best phone ever and they just abandoned it. I suppose it will get worse with M. Why even bother to update this device if you are gonna just gonna give us Note 4. It would be a little less dismissive if they included the new Touchwiz and its features but its just an Android update. Thanks for the input. Looks like its 4.4.4 for life. The Wallet cover (Flip OEM Case) is the best case for this phone and if it doesn't work along with an increasing castration of Edge Screen features, I'm not installing it

Ok I would really like you to list the edge features that have been stripped because I have yet to see any. The camera button was moved off the edge because there was too many complaints of people accidentally taking photos. I think it was a good adjustment, other than that the edge has always been what the edge was supposed to be, an extra screen. I love my note edge and I think it is one of the best android phones out there. The edge screen enhances the way I use my phone because I never have to leave the screen i'm on to access something different and it also cuts down on the amount of mods I need to install because the edge does a good job compensating for pie launchers and other shortcuts. The edge screen has only gotten better in my opinion

I am not happy with the update. It seems to have disabled the ability to detect my wallet cover. Now when I open and close it the phone does nothing. Instead it just stays showing the screen and nothing on the edge. That is not going to help my battery life. Also, when my alarm went off this morning it didn't give me the option to dismiss the alarm through the edge panel. I had to open the cover, which it didn't recognize and dismiss it on the screen. If you really can't go back to an older version I am just going to trade the phone in and get a Note 5. I loved the Edge but if it is losing some of the best functionalities it has then it is not worth staying with it. If anyone is able to help make the adjustments, at least for the wallet cover that would be appreciated.

Bad idea (Note 5, S, whatever) No removable (i.e. replaceable) battery and no additional storage (sd card)
The only thing that I actually noticed was the Google messenger app I use stopped sending mms messages until I uninstalled it. I have had the update for two hours now but have not seen any battery improvements or any other changes. I don't know if there are any new apps and I did not know about the new vide feature. Speed and battery are my main worries with any new updates. I will give it 48 hours before I make a determination. If it sucks then back to kitkat it is.

Ok I would really like you to list the edge features that have been stripped because I have yet to see any. The camera button was moved off the edge because there was too many complaints of people accidentally taking photos.

Good Lord, how do you accidentally take a picture on the Edge Screen? Its literally out on the other screen. If anything , having a shutter button on the screen makes it super easy to take a picture. When I was on 5.0.1 some notifcations would pop on on screen and my poweramp lock screen would bug out. Also the android player on the edge screen would dissappear every now and then so I couldn't toggle my music on the edge screen
Hello, just a quick question, I'm pretty sure I already know the answer just need verification to help curb disappointment if it happens.
Custom ROMs support waving hand over proximity sensor on the 6P to wake up the display ala Moto X ActiveDisplay?
I think stock does not support it, but custom ROMs do I think/hope.
Thanks.
Nobody knows? really?
You could try the app Gravity Screen. I know it's not baked in to the system, but it works well and doesn't even need root. I know it must use some extra battery life, but I haven't noticed much of a hit.
