Why the Hell doesn't the Icon allow tap to wake?

[Windows Central Question]

As simple a future in today's world. I don't understand why I had tap to wake on a 989 but it's sibling that came out after it and is supposed to be an upgrade (the 929) does not have tap to wake. Is there any way to get it? I have win 8.1 developers preview installed. Latest build.

No offense but this subject was discussed ad nauseam months ago. It should not be a surprise -you could have known about it with even minimal pre purchase research. No it is not available and no there is no fix. It is related to the type of display technology used in the Icon which is simply not compatible with Glance, This was also never hidden - been front and center from the start....

He is talking about double tap to wake up not glance I think.
If so go to SETTINGS and under TOUCH you find the setting to wake up.

Harrie,

​Double Tap to Wake & Glance Screen are both tied to the same screen technology (screen memory) which Icon lacks. You get both or none.

NO.
My 930 has double tap to wake.
No glance. You are correct on that point.

Same here, my 930 has double tap to wake, but no glance

The 929 Doesn't have tap to wake, it doesn't make sense that the 930 does and 929 doesn't -_-. I wish there was a fix for this. Does anyone think denim will fix once it is released?

Double tap to wake needs CYAN. So if you have an Icon (929) without CYAN you do not have it. Please thank Verizon.

...My 930 has double tap to wake...

I stand corrected. I've never had a phone that had one without the other... My AMOLED screen 925 had both and my IPS LCD 1520 has both.
