Hey, got the same and it is most frustrating thing. My sensor went down i checked with testing apps. Phone laying down on table and goes on and off every dozens seconda. Drain batyery faster than normal. Get rid off that. I realy want to sell this phone out.

Plus calling screen off and double tap isse makes the phone worst and worst.

Any help?

After few days the problem automatically solved, nothing done . Sometimes the double tap to wake will not work at that time a reboot will do . now its working flawlessly

Try this: Go to "About phone" and make sure that the advanced mode" is enabled, then go to the "Display and light" and enable "Prevent accidental wake up" . Hope it works.

I'm using a flip cover. the device doesnt wake up by opening the flipcover. Is there a possibility to test the sensor?
I have the same problem and it has nothing to with the flip cover, it's a software problem in the Cyanogen OS. Try to force restart you phone by pressing the power key for 10 seconds to use the device normally, then head to the settings and disable "Double tap to sleep" option in the Display settings.

Doesn't matter, I'm running Cyanogen OS 12.1 on my ZUK Z1 and my friend is running CM 12.1 on his OnePlus 1 and we both have the same problem

I've read that maybe a display cover (film) is the reason. That the film is up to the proximity sensor. But I can't image...
Are you using a display film?
