Just flashed, holy crap is this thing fast!! I don't seem to have the Tap to Wake feature working. Is there something I need to turn on?? Looked and couldn't find it.

Same issues with Proximity Sensor as on CM Rom, also lost Root so couldn't logcat.. Thanks I'll try again later!
You can get root back in the settings. Its in developer options. You have to choose apps + adb I believe. I lost root as well until I did that.

Beautiful ROM. Great work. Its super fast and has all the slim features. It even reads my SD card which is something liquid, cm, and vanir didn't do. (I really didn't want to reformat that card.) No bugs so far.
I do miss the double-tap on feature though. Does anyone have a suggestion, app, or workaround to get that working? Play store doesn't have much to offer to assign a shortcut or gesture through nova prime.

Oops...just saw dev post regarding this. Posted at the same time. My bad.
