This is great stuff, please keep up the good work.
I’m just wondering if you’ve come across a “double tap” (like the LG G3) on/off for the Note 4?
Thanks,

Thanks for the kind words, There are some apps that let you do “double tap to wakeup” the screen but they’re not so effective. but for the double tap to turn off the screen, I’ve explained in a tutorial this week, you check it out at this link http://howto.highonandroid.com/app-tutorials/how-to-double-tap-to-turn-off-your-android-screen/
Wow, quick reply…..I’ll have a look. Thank you!
