Android Smartphones

The Huawei P8 has the function "Double Tap to Wake" integrated. With this function you can wake up your Huawei P8 from the stand-by by tapping twice on the screen. This feature is very convenient because you don´t have to press the power button to turn off the stand-by of the smartphone.

However, the Huawei P8 often does not respond to this display command, which means that the user must repeatedly tap the screen before "Double Tap to Wake" works. As this is rather annoying, we want to give you here two tips to help you and to make better use of this feature on your Huawei P8:

1. Tip

Increase the sensitivity of the Huawei P8 display by activating the glove mode. This mode is set in the following Android submenu :

Open Menu --> Settings --> Smart Support --> More --> Glove mode

Use the slider to activate it. The sensitivity of the screen is then higher than before. This should be beneficial to the recognition of "Double Tap to Wake"

2. Tip

If you use a screen protector, then please check whether it lies right on the screen. It is quite possible that thicker screen protectors interfere with the function "Double Tap to Wake". Here then only the possibility remains to replace it with a thinner film, or to use it completely without it.

You now know two ways to optimize the Double Tab to Wake function on your Huawei P8 so that your entries are better recognized.

If your Samsung Galaxy S6 does not work smooth in the menu and when opening apps and does not play the animation at the transitions correctly, then one of the following tips helps most of the time. These workarounds for your smartphone we would like to introduce here:

Tip #1 to finish stuttering on your smartphone

Samsung Galaxy S6

If your smartphone is turned on a very long time, then the background processes and temporary files add up and slow down the Samsung Galaxy S6.

It happens that transition animations are no longer running smoothly. It comes to "stuttering". The easiest way is then simply turn off the Samsung Galaxy S6 and restart it again after about 10 seconds. Thus, the system is rebooted and ended the outdated processes.

Tip #2 to terminate a bucking at animations

Often temporary files are the cause of a judder of animation transitions in Android. This can be most easily fixed by a Wipe Cache partition. This only deletes the old system files. Private files are not deleted, so this method is very easy to perform.

A Wipe Cache partition works on your Samsung Galaxy S6 as follows:

Turn off your Samsung Galaxy S6 completely. Then press and hold the following key combination to turn the phone back on:

  • Power On / Off
  • Volume +
  • Home button

When the Samsung Galaxy S6 vibrates once, release the power on / off button but keep the other two keys from the key combination pressed until a small menu appears on the screen. Now mark the entry "Wipe Cache partition" with the volume down key. With the Power On / Off button, the entry is selected and the process is started.

This usually takes only a few seconds. Then the previously displayed menu reappears. Now selects the first entry with "Reboot system now" and executes the command again with a pressing of the power button. Your Samsung Galaxy S6 will now reboot.

Tip #3 Our last tip

Also the power saving mode on your Samsung Galaxy S6 may be the cause for stuttering on the Android menu and when opening apps. Because of the reduced performance the animations are no longer rendered as smooth as it would be the case without the power saving mode.

Tests how the bucking is affected with deactivated energy saving mode.

You now have learned various options and reasons for bucking within the Android menu or when opening apps.

We hope that your Samsung Galaxy S6 operates now smoothly.
