Check this, go to Motion control => Pick up => Wake up device
If available in your device then might be similar.
Using third-party app is not recommended, can cause battery drain.

sorry but no , seems you didn't read the OP, he's asking for the tap to wake up feature which the p20 lite doesn't have instead he got referred to the pick up the wake feature which again wasn't what he asked about in the first place and so when he replied his phone doesn't have that feature he was referring to the tap to wake up feature

The only one I used a long time ago was KnockOn (you can find it on XDA) but I don't know if it would work on this device.
Or perhaps going for Tasker, maybe it has something to allow wake on tap.
Just for the kick, is the feature important for your daily use? I personally find the raise to wake more functional

There is no DT2W option. Just FP sensor for that.

P20 Lite does not have touch to wake. Only stock alternative is pickup to wake.

i find this, https://www.xda-developers.com/enable-double-tap-to-wake-on-huawei-and-honor-devices/ . anyone try it?

Double-tap To Wake Screen?

Is there any app, Xposed module, mod, etc to get the "double-tap to wake screen" feature like LG phones have?
I tried an app that woke the phone by waving in front of the proximity sensor, but that was a battery hog.
Would like to be able to wake phone without power button.
I'm running PAC ROM which does have double-tap to sleep.
Thanks for any suggestions!
2nd this.
This is typically dependent on the kernel. It also needs to have support by the hardware, otherwise there is massive battery drain. I'm 99% certain our phone does not have the proper hardware for it.
We have douple tap to sleep. But not wake.

You just echoed the OP .
What can be done to get wake on tap is my question.
You would have to start by removing tap to sleep.
Can't have both. Its doable but as said earlier it would cause drain issues.

Why can't we have both like LG?
I would prefer double-tap to wake, since I already have icons/apps that can put the phone to sleep like Green if click on an icon.
How does LG do this without battery drain problem I wonder?

Still doable. Not sure what all can be done to reduce drain. Its like Google now voice detection. Disabling that increases battery life as well. So it really boils down to what you are willing to sacrifice for a particular function addition.

Implementation with a disable switch solves that. User can decide turnoff if too much battery drain.
Yep. Would only make sense to be able to disable it. If I couldn't disable Google now voice I would delete it all together... Handy tool. But I enjoy my battery life way to much.
Yes, Gravity screen

I meant Display/Lock in Tasker instead of double-tap to lock the screen (Screen Off).
Screen On can also be set with Tasker, functioning exactly the same way as Gravity Screen.

I use it every day, all the time. I liked it so much as to pay for the it, not using the demo, which is sufficient. No, it doesn't drain the battery.

Can I tap to wake the phone ?

Hello,
I want to buy this phone, and I was wondering if you can tap into the screen to wake the phone.
I have no problem to root the phone and to download custom rom if it has the feature.

nope, it doesn't have tap to wake
The fingerprint scanner is an always on one, so when you are holding the phone you just need to touch it to unlock the phone. The only time that dttw would be nice is when the phone is flat on a desk.
lol! use the fp scanner to wake the phone? works once or twice in every hundred attempts
Thanks for the replies.
I spend many hours working at a desk , so the FP sensor will be annoying to use all the time.
From what I have also read on this forum , the FP sensor doesn't always working. Despite how simple this problem, I think this may be a deal breaker for me.
Maybe you can get this functionality with xposed.
You can find a lot of videos in YouTube with double tap to wake and double tap to sleep.

The fps always goes straight into the homescreen and I often just want to see my notifications on the lockscreen. Having to press the power button on the side therefore can be quite inconvenient when the phone is lying on the desk.
PS: Oh, well, that was another downside of EMUI. I don't get why they don't show older notifications on the lockscreen. If the phone gets unlocked once, all the notifications for this moment don't show up on the lockscreen anymore (which stock Android and I guess most other OEM skins do).

Strange that it is missing as it works in the H7.
Isn't that a hardware limitation at least on the h9?
Well bro you can use the "Evie Launcher", than go to settings and pick double Tap option. You can lock your phone via Double Tap than (Not unlocking)

Mate 10 Pro Double tap to wake

Hi Everyone,
Why Huawei didn't activate this function to their high end phone. THIS IS VERY USEFUL.
Anyone, manage to activate this on their rooted mate 10 pro?

Some weeks ago someone hinted at some code in the firmware which was supposed to handle double tap to wake. But there's no confirmation anywhere that Huawei will ever enable or further develop that code, just assumptions.
in Mate 8 forum there is a thread about enabling double tap to wake through some modifications on build prop.
That requires Root but I have no idea if that procedure could be implemented on mate 10

Yes, the sensor is good, but kind of difficult to access while phone is mounted in a car - double tap to wake would be nice then, I miss it from my OnePlus X.
hello to all.... is possible that even in march update official, for huawei mate pro, is not present double tap to wake? other alternatives drain many battery... i hope a solution in last 4 monthes in this post
my solution
Hello,
As a former LG G2 user I've quickly begun to miss the double tap to wake/sleep | knockon/off function with my Huawei Mate 10 Pro. So after lots of investigations and app trials here's my solution which seems to perform pretty well in my opinion.
After trying many apps I've encountered the so called 'Always on AMOLED | Edge lighting'.
Here's my setup on the mate 10 pro (emui 8.0.0, android 8.0.0, build 8.0.0.157 C432) first:
1) Disable smart cover
2) Disable pick to wake
3) Disable pulse light (it won't work and we'll use app's notification handling which is great in my opinion)
4) Disable always on display information
5) After installing the app (VERY IMPORTANT!):
- Go to ignore battery optimisation in android's settings and add this app to the Allowed list
- Go to battery / launch - then Manage manually the amoled app:
* set to on - auto launch
* set to on - secondary launch
* set to on - run in background
To quickly find the upper settings use the search bar in the settings menu.
Then in the app (v. 2.1.7 tested):
1) I've made a fully black background instead of a clock - upto your flavor
2) Enable the POCKET MODE! This actually saves battery a lot since if proximity sensor is covered the screen is completely shut down. When you sleep/want to save battery place the phone with face down - sounds as no problem to me..
3) Brightness is set to 10 or so - again upto you, the less the better for the battery
For double tap to lock I use a widget placed all over the screens where there are no icons - sounds annoying but once settled it works flawlessly. Here's the widget I use - DTS widget Skynet Software.
To be honest I've found it from this forum.
Share your experience as I might have missed something.
P.S Somehow the power button won't lock the screen now but I don't use it at all anyway, so no problem to me..
P.S.2 I would have bought another LG phone if only they have kept the IR Blaster but that's another story..

Same, I only like double-tap to wake on my phones without fingerprint sensors. On my mate 10 and Xiaomis, whether front or back, I am prone to using the fingerprint sensors, and they bypass the lock screen too.
Of course, it's a nice feature to have that doesn't drain battery, all my phones, except Huawei, have dt2w.

double tap to wake?

Hi, this is my first Emui device ,i was wondering is there is a way to get double tap to wake without root.
Thanks
Its not possible at fhe moment
The only way to wake the phone without pressing the power button is touching the screen in the fingerprint sensor area....
another alternative or workaround is turning on "pick up to wake" in settings

How can you know what exactly the position you should tap on? Or it always display on the screen?

If you tap the screen anywhere a purple fingerprint will illuminate on the screen, but the first tap is not necessary if you're already used to where you should put the finger, you can just put the finger even though it is not displaying the purple icon and it will unlock. The optical fingerprint sensor is not great though, was hit or miss for me.
It'd be handy for the screen to turn on though. Are there any good apps that accomplish this? Obviously the screen is already always expecting input so this wouldn't be that much to add, I think.
I sent request to HW to make this very convernient feature. I hope they will listen to users!

You can yous doubke tap to wake:
Huawei have very bad AOD, it doesn't have any information only time. I found this AOD that have so much settings and very, very, useful.
- AOD (time, calendar, weather),
- Notification (when you get messages on som application like Viber it shows Viber icon, you can touch icon and read message on AOD without unlock it),
- Blacklist app - app you dont want to show on AOD,
- Duble tap to wake, swipe up for camera and etc...,
- Edge lights for notifications,
- Background for wallpaper,
- Adaptive mod,
- Font style,
- Music Controls,
- Automatic move clock,
- And many more settings...

It kinda works but the fingerprint reader doesn't always work because of the overlay, I guess that's the payoff. sad that double tap is there but does not do something as basic as wake the phone.
