Why isn't the double tap to wake up my phone working properly?

Double tap to wake up not working properly!!

Sometimes it works on two taps and most of the time I'm tapping it for more than two times but still there is no response. Is there any way to improve it or am I doing something wrong????

Re: Double tap to wake up not working properly!!

I'm facing the same issue. Double tap to wake is a hit or a miss. Sometimes it works in 1st try, on an average it works in 2-3 tries. But sometimes it does not wake even if I try 15-20 times. I just have to use the button.

As Denim is still an early build, I hope double tab would be improved in future software updates.

Same here on my 1520..... Last night I tapped over 10 times.... Still didn't work... That's when I realised the phone was turned off *slaps head* lol

Epic!!

Just curious, do you have the 'Live Lock Screen BETA' installed? It is known to cause a lag in resuming the Start Screen when locked or on standby, even when you don't have it set as the Lockscreen background. I've uninstalled mine for the time being and double-tap to wake and the general responsiveness of resuming the Start Screen is back to its snappy old self.

happened often on my 520 too, but apparently after a hard reset + no backup restore it's better. I'm not sure, but it seemed worse after Cyan

Slow and no hard two times tap, and work in 99% .

You also have to be careful and not put a stray finger in front of the proximity sensor while doing this, because it could turn off the touch sensor alltogether.

did a hard reset, proximity sensor also clean but still i'm facing the issue what to do i'm getting annoyed with the product

Try really small touch screen and long touch 2x, and it should work. When I installed the Nilkin screen protector is better, I got 10 out of 10 experiments work.

Lumia 730 or 735?

Lumia 730 or 735?

730, but as the screens are same, should apply to 735 as well.

730, but as the screens are same, should apply to 735 as well.

Did u get GDR2 using windows insider or without using it?
