Smart lock and double tap to lock

Hi all, I've found a thing that annoys me so much.
Situation: you have smart lock enabled(pattern) with face recognition and you have nova launcher with a double tap gesture which points at an app like this: https://www.google.com/url?q=https:...sQFjAA&usg=AFQjCNH2WrgNyGB4zzQoGw-JCywm67EFcw (there are many apps similar, I tried with others too)
If you lock the screen double tapping, during the next unlock smart lock will be disabled. I don't know why because locking the device with the power button, the next unlock is working with face recognition.
It seems that the app which lock the device enables this feature: http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/1...-unlock-to-require-a-manual-unlock-next-time/ but why?
Can someone find a workaround for this?

There's a bug in Lollipop which affects the lock/unlock pin. Could it be that this is affecting you?

Redmi note 3 (SD) Smart Wifi Unlock & Colver lock and swipe to wake

Hi all,
Wanted to share 2 programs that are a great adittion to our Redmi.
Double tap to sleep works with the xposed module but i wanted a double tap to wake. So after trying some apps i found:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.danielkao.autoscreenonoff&hl=nl
This works great with our Redmi you can wake bij opening the cover or swiping over proximity senor.
Also MIUI is missing wifi smart unlock. This app will add this feature. Be sure to add permissons not to close the app by cleaner and in battery mannager in MIUI.

You can unlock your ph, but there is no option of locking it via fp without any third-party app

It's available in Nougat

available in nougat.. if u can't wait use fingerprint quick a action in XDA

Gravitybox
You can use gravitybox to lock your phone using fingerprint. It is available in Nougat, but if you're on MM, and can't wait, install xposed framework, install gravitybox module, and under fingerprint settings, you can set an action for each finger you've configured. One of them can be set to lock the screen.

On 7.1 im using the fp sensor as home button and set up double tap to turn off screen. Maybe it's available on some cm13 builds too?

Provided you're on the stock Nougat ROM, and you've got your fingerprints set up, head to Settings>Security. Under 'Device Security', tap the gear icon next to Screen Lock. There on the Screen Lock Settings, you'll have an option to long press the fingerprint sensor to lock your screen.
(This is present on Nougat v7.0 NPJS25.93-14.4, I think it's present on earlier Nougat builds).
Custom ROMs likely have their own method of locking with the fingerprint sensor or with the soft home button.

This will help

Lock screen app

I really like the fingerprint sensor on the back of the phone. I have tried several of the lock screen apps. When I wake the phone up again, I have to enter the password. The fingerprint sensor doesn't work. Does anyone know an app that is compatible with the fingerprint sensor?

This one works and it's light.

Soft way to lock and unlock by fingerprint only in mi a1
There is a software also. its called fingerprint scanner tools it's available in Google Play Store installed it and try it can solve your problem and it makes the MI A1 lock and unlock through the fingerprint sensor only

Help
Dear mates I'm new on Xiaomi Mi A1 device and I have been using screen off app on Android 6 (HTC) to lock the screen to avoid using power button. But I've installed several apps on Mi A1 and no help so please anyone can help me with it would be a great pleasure. Thanks

any screen lock app will work fine on mia1 as i have used many. You need to grant device admin privel. and use screen off feature instead of lock immediately. If you use lock immediately setting it will ask for PIN for security reasons.

Activate double tap on status bar to lock

Try another rom, InvictaOS https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-g4-plus/development/xt16xx-cyanogenmod-14-1-alpha-t3492274 have a double touch in fingerprint to lock screen

Been using fingerprint quick action app. Have to use the root method to get exact stock behavior of tap > instant sleep.
Would prefer non-root method but it works. Only issue is that I suspect it causing minor stability issue. Every 2-3 days need to restart my phone or I'll get 'could not get root access' errors when doing the fingerprint lock, but all good after reboot.

can Invicta (or any other rom) do single touch fingerprint gestures out of the box??

Use RR ROM official. It has single touch FP lock.
