I've checked all the double tap threads and no one seems to know why it's not working for some.
I tried both Elite ROM 7.3 and crDroid. They both have the option enabled by default (double checked all the settings), but my screen doesn't care about that.
Can my hardware be different than what others have? Any way to see if that's the problem? Maybe by comparing with others.

I'm really missing the tap-to-wake from some of my previous phones and I know it's possible on the stock firmware for the S7 Edge.
There are a lot of proximity-based tap-to-wake mods but these are not the same as tap-to-wake.
Now that the snapdragon version is able to be rooted, I'm wondering if any ROMs or Xposed tweaks exist to add this feature?
Potentially stupid question, but is there something wrong with just using the physical home key - that's on the front of the phone?
It's just a preference. The home button works just fine (and is required for finger-print unlock) but double-tap to wake is really convenient for me when using a trusted device, etc.
Nova Launcher has Tap to unlock/wake in it's "Gestures" settings
Did you mean tap to lock? I didn't think it could tap to wake.

There's only double tap to turn off screen AFAIK.

Doh!!! My bad. You are right it is tap to lock not unlock.
Apologies
I can't find the setting and mine most certainly does NOT double-tap to wake out of the box. There definitely wasn't any sort of "check here to enable" during the initial setup, either.
I assume I'm missing something obvious. Wouldn't be the first time
It's under "Gesture & motion" section

Edit: I waited to long to answer LoL
It never occurred to me to click on something that had a toggle (other than the toggle itself, I mean).
Most of the time I consider myself a smart guy. Today is not one of those days.
How's double tap working for you? It's finicky..about 60% nothing happens when I double tap. Then the other times it's laggy or delayed to wake compared to my OPO on sultan rom which wakes immediately.
Have you guys seen this?

I just saw this video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnU6xMP8wmg
in which it said that SONY XPERIA XZP don't have DT2W feature!
can anyone confirm that? may be he was using unfinished version of the xzp...
its usually under SETTINGS>> DISPLAY >> TAP TO WAKE
please confirm
dt2w will be deal breaker for me! i won't buy if this feature is missing!!
sorry but i can't see the option in my display settings...
I can also confirm that this beautifull phone doesn't have DT2W
I will try to include tap to wake in my kernel. (after I receive my XZP...)
In fact, there is config for tap to wake and I think this can re-enable it if there is no hardware limitation.

GG!!! This means we'll have root goodies under your Tmark hehe. Without diverting too much from the topic, any clues on TA backup? Using this beauty without root (and hopefully Xposed soon) is half the joy.
@YasuHamed P.S. Double tap to sleep is also gone - that's on home.apk, but they might make a comeback on the next update.
On second thoughts
I am gonna buy this fone
Unlock it flash the kernals do the dt2w thing. Exactly the way i did woth my c6602
Btw, no news on ta.img yet
There is no known exploit or xposed on 7.x.x
I wonder if the Double Tap To Wake function can be accessed via ADB or someting else without root...

if in next version of Xperia HOME, tap to sleep and tap to wake are there, then there is no need to play around
my guess is that because it wasn't working in XZ perfectly, where some time devices were not able to wakeup until you wait little longer for screen to sleep, they have removed it,
some one need to tell sony engineers! or who ever is the master mind of sony stock android for devices!
in 2017 the trend is
1. more ram
2. gestures features! ( camera, torch , tap to wake)
3. hide/ unhide navbar ( i.e physical touch navbar)
4. whatelse?
Is DT2W included in the latest rom?

No.
Currently only my custom kernel can enable it.
Myabe Sony will re-enable DT2W when their problem (I don't know exactly) is fixed.
I wonder how much that feature, making the tactile layer constantly waiting for a signal is battery consuming..
C'est en faisant qu'on apprend
Is there a way to get the ambient display to show when I pick up the phone or on double tap like some other devices do?
Thanks
try Ambi-Turner apk on google play store.
Thanks, but doesnt seem to do anything with this phone...
i'm using donate version, it unlock option for "wave to wake" and "pick-up to wake", works well and no excessive battery drain.
On the Mi A1?
The standard version has pick up to wake (and pull out of pocket) - neither did anything for me (i did get the notification to say it was running as Pushbullet sent to my computer)
yes on Mi A1, wave gesture work without problem but pickup to wake works only on paid version after enabling "tilt and lift to wake option", in any case it is not much reactive but work.
An alternative can be "always on amoled" apk, it have an option to replace ambient display function or wait until custom rom come out.
@fdc77 does the double tap to wake option work in Ambi-turner as well? Since you already have the donate version, would you mind to check?
@Localhorst86
HI, DT to wake does not work, it is a feature that must be implemented at kernel level, so only with a custom kernel it can be eventually enabled.
After updating to Oreo, camera app opens with double tap of power button..No matter how hard i tried to find an option to disable this feature. i couldnt find such an option..
FYI, i didn't have this feature enabled when running Nougat.
Any help please??? it starts getting on my nerves because i open the camera accidentally quite often and starts getting on my nerves..
Thank you in advance..
In the settings, search for gestures, the option will be listed there.
Settings>System>Language & Input>Advanced>Jump to camera
